After saying this, Duan Shubai turned around and left, not caring about Dong Yueyun's expression behind him.

Dong Yueyun's face turned pale, and she murmured as she watched Duan Shubai's gradually receding figure, "How could this happen? I am obviously the most beautiful and gentle woman here. Isn't it said that heroes bend for beauties? Why doesn't he like me? Such a beautiful and moving woman is willing to be his concubine, isn't he moved at all?... Get out of Xinyang City, how cruel can he be to say such rude words to a love-struck woman."

According to Dong Yueyun's previous assumption, even if Duan Shubai had not yet been attracted to her, as long as she showed her love and admiration for him in front of everyone, considering the reputation of the girl and the face of the man, he should take her home anyway, which is a good thing to have the best of both worlds. When she gets close to Duan Shubai, she will let him understand her kindness, gentleness and charm, and step into his heart step by step... What husband of Shuang'er, son of the Marquis, she is the real general's wife of Duan Shubai.

By then, all the women in Yangzhou will envy her.

...

"Bang!"

The wine jar in her hand fell to the ground, the wine spilled all over the ground, splashing the tip of her shoes, and the broken tiles also indicated that her dream of being the general's wife was shattered.

Duan Shubai chased Xiao Yuhe back. He pushed open the wooden door and saw Qiuran wandering around the stairs. Qiuran saw him coming back and walked up to him anxiously and said, "Son-in-law."

Duan Shubai asked, "Where is Yuhe?"

"The young master just went upstairs angrily and didn't let Qiuran follow him--" Qiuran tightened his sleeves and looked upstairs worriedly, "The young master used to like to throw things when he got angry, but this time he was quiet and there was no sound at all. Son-in-law, go upstairs and check on the young master."

Duan Shubai nodded, and took two steps at a time, wishing he could jump directly to the second floor. He stood in front of the door of their room, which was ajar and not locked. He pushed the door open and walked in.

The room was very quiet. Xiao Yuhe stood in front of the couch with his back to him, packing clothes. The sound of Duan Shubai pushing the door in did not disturb him at all, and he continued to do his work.

Duan Shubai could only see Xiao Yuhe's back, with yellow and white wide-sleeved clothes, and a light yellow belt with silver lotus patterns that made his thin waist even thinner. He was tall and graceful, with green hair and jade crowns, and rings all over his body. He was indeed an elegant and outstanding young man.

If Duan Shubai had not seen his figure flashing by just now, it would be hard to believe that this young man with a cold back was hiding behind the haystack and eavesdropping on his conversation with Dong Yueyun.

"Yuhe, what are you doing?"

Xiao Yuhe paused and said indifferently, "Pack up."

Duan Shubai walked up to him and smiled, "Pack up for what?"

"Go back to Yangcheng."

"Isn't it good here? Why do you suddenly want to go to Yangcheng?"

Xiao Yuhe paused, turned his head to look at him, and said coldly, "I'm just going back to where I should be."

Duan Shubai finally saw Xiao Yuhe's face. His beautiful face was cold and indifferent. If it weren't for his red eyes, Duan Shubai almost thought he had returned to the days when they first met.
