Zi Yan stared at Lan Yanzhi. His hands were in his pocket, and there was a slight bitterness swelling in her heart as she stared at his opening and closing mouth.

They had already been separated for a very long time.

She thought that he had already let go of some things. But seeing him act like this, it seemed like he still had a very strong opinion against her.

She did not want to come to the Capital at first, but ever since they met again at Light Island, she could not control her legs at all.

Even though she knew that it would cause him to despise her even more, she still came.

Noting the flash of hatred in his eyes, Zi Yan smiled brightly. “Brother Yanzhi, do you not welcome me?”

When she asked this, her lips were trembling slightly.

Lan Yanzhi stared at Zi Yan, his handsome eyebrows furrowing together unconsciously. Zi Yan could clearly feel the temperature in the air drop several degrees.

It seemed like he did not welcome her at all.

Mu Sihan could feel the silent tension between them, and he kicked towards Lan Yanzhi. “Go in and play with your cards.”

Lan Yanzhi hummed coldly, no longer saying anything as he turned around to leave.

Zi Yan remained at where she was, feeling incredibly awkward.

“Brother Sihan, Sister-in-law, I… should leave.” Even though she had become very strong over the last few years and had prepared herself to become strangers with Lan Yanzhi, his hurtful att.i.tude still hurt her.

Some couples that had broken up would even act like they didn’t know each other when they met. They would never be like him, hurting her whenever he spoke.

Nan Zhi could already tell something from the exchange earlier. She hurriedly pulled Zi Yan’s arm. “Why are you leaving when you just arrived? I heard from Sihan that there was a girl who helped him on Light Island, he was referring to you, right?”

“If it wasn’t for your help, I don’t know when Sihan and I would meet again!” Nan Zhi smiled at Zi Yan. “I cooked personally tonight, so please stay and eat with us!”

Staring at the friendly Nan Zhi, Zi Yan calmed her emotions down as she blinked. “Sister-in-law was like an untouched fairy in my heart in the past. I thought that you had never done any ch.o.r.es, and did not expect you to be so capable!”

Nan Zhi’s smile widened. “Don’t praise me so much, if not I’ll float to the skies with all your praises.”

Nan Zhi’s personality was so nice, so it was easy for Zi Yan managed to familiarize herself with Nan Zhi within a short time. She took the initiative to go into the kitchen to help out, unwilling to listen to Nan Zhi’s request to let her rest.

The three women placed the dishes on the dining table.

The card game in the tearoom had stopped and the group came into the dining room.

When Amy saw the large table filled with delicious-looking dishes and the tantalizing smells emanating from them, she exclaimed out loud, “Oh my G.o.d, they look so delicious! We’re both women, but why are we so different? Seeing the food Zhizhi cooked makes me feel like I’m useless tras.h.!.+”

Elder Dong commented without holding himself back. “I’m glad you know that.”

“Teacher, how can you criticize your student like this? Keep some face for me!”

Once all of the food was on the table, Nan Zhi got Yan Hua and Zi Yan to go sit down while she ladled some soup for everyone.

Zi Yan was not willing to sit down, so after Nan Zhi scooped the soup, she helped bring them to the table.

When Amy saw Zi Yan, she exclaimed once more, “There’s another fairy now! Who does this fairy belong to?”

As Amy said that, Zi Yan was bringing the bowls of soup to everyone and was ready to place the last bowl of soup in front of Lan Yanzhi. Her hand shook when she heard what Amy said.

Some of the soup spilled onto Lan Yanzhi.

Lan Yanzhi’s expression immediately darkened.
