“Cough, cough, cough, cough, cough…” Wei Jinyi started coughing violently, his cheeks quickly flushing crimson.
The crimson hue spread all the way to the roots of his ears.
“What’s wrong?” Wei Ruo asked.
“Don’t mention this anymore, not in front of me, and especially not in front of outsiders.” Wei Jinyi said sternly.
“Don’t worry, I do know better than to say such things outside,” Wei Ruo giggled.
She leaned closer and whispered, “I won’t tell anyone about my second brother’s impressive physique.”
“Boom—” Wei Jinyi’s face turned completely red, like a boiled crab.
Seeing his blush, Wei Ruo laughed heartily within.
Ah, indeed my second brother is an interesting fellow. He is so shy, what would he do after getting married if he is so uncomfortable with her sister seeing his body?
After laughing, Wei Ruo continued her previous question, “You haven’t told me yet, how do you maintain your muscles while spending all day reading and writing?”
She hadn’t forgotten to ask Wei Jinyi this question yet!
“I practice physical training techniques,” Wei Jinyi answered.
“You’re really disciplined. Even in this small courtyard, you never forget to stay in shape,” praised Wei Ruo.
“I’m a little different from the rest of you, I can’t afford to be lax,” Wei Jinyi mumbled.
These words seemed as if he was speaking to Wei Ruo, but also like he was talking to himself.

Within her room, Wei Qingwan had been crying for a long time. Wei Yichen and Wei Yilin both came to comfort her in turn.
Unlike previous times, this time Wei Qingwan could not stop crying for a long time.
Then Wei Ruo came.
When Wei Yichen and Wei Yilin came out of the room, their expressions turned peculiar at the sight of Wei Ruo.
Unable to hide his emotions, Wei Yilin rushed forward and accused Wei Ruo, “You devil! You took away my sister’s opportunity to study at the Xie Family! You made her cry so miserably!”
Wei Ruo calmly retorted to Wei Yichen, “First, the Xie family initially chose me to accompany Miss Xie’s studies. You misinterpreted it, so how did it turn into me being the culprit? Your logic seems flawed. You accused me unjustly.” “Secondly, how did my coming to visit Qingwan turn into watching a spectacle? Did she suffer a great injustice? Can’t she continue to study at the magistrate’s office? That has been her routine for the past few years. Why is it all of sudden an issue when earlier it wasn’t seen as a problem?”
“Before your misunderstanding regarding who was to study with the Xie family, didn’t you arrange for me to study at the magistrate’s office saying that the female tutor there is very talented? Why has it turned into an ordeal when it comes to Qingwan?”
Wei Ruo refuted Wei Yilin’s accusations leisurely, her smile radiant as she watched Wei Yilin.
“It’s not the same! My sister is better than you, she should have gone to the Xie Family’s!” Wei Yilin retorted.
“Oh, so you were all trying to fool me, right? Your promises of fair treatment to me and Qingwan, they were all deceit manoeuvres, right? In reality, you never saw us as equals, did you? Things that are seen as normal when they happen to me appear as grievances when they happen to Qingwan, right?”
Wei Ruo spoke these heart-breaking words, but there was a slight smile on her lips. Her bright, clear eyes were like torches, seeming to penetrate and understand all the thoughts of her brothers.
