She had no dignity left in front of Long Yin now.

Hexin was angry and frustrated at this thought, but there was nothing she could do about it.

He’an felt quite guilty when he saw how angry his sister was.

“Go ahead and scold me, Big Sis.” He’an finally plucked up the courage to speak up after quite a while.

“What good would it do to scold you? Can it turn back time?” Hexin spat brusquely. “Go away. I don’t want to see you right now.”

He’an’s head fell in despair when he heard this. “Cousin Youyou, please keep my sister company and stop her if she does anything stupid.”

Hexin,

She grabbed a cup from the table. “If you don’t leave right now, I will do something stupid right now and hit you.”

He’an did not dare stay a minute longer when he saw this and slipped away quickly.

Was that rascal here specifically to give her trouble?

“What sort of painting was it, Cousin Hexin?” Yuan You asked carefully when she saw the anger on Hexin’s face.

“Nothing.” Hexin did not want to talk about this embarrassing matter. “Go on out and have some fun. Let me figure things out on my own.”

Yuan You nodded. “Alright. I’ll be right outside. Just call out to me if there is anything you need.” She paused a moment and said with worry, “Cousin Hexin, it’s just one man. It’s fine without him around. You should let it go and don’t spiral out of control and do something you’ll regret.”

The corner of Hexin’s lips twitched. She was already feeling quite upset, but with Yuan You and He’an persistently butting into the situation, she was not in such a depressed state anymore.

She could not help rolling her eyes at Yuan You’s words. “Do I look like someone who would kill myself over a man? You’re thinking too much about this.”

“It’s good that you aren’t.” Yuan You stopped worrying about it.

“Don’t worry, I’ll get my parents to hold an assembly for me to throw an embroidery ball to choose a husband,” Hexin said determinedly.

Yuan You’s eyes widened at her words. “You just said you wouldn’t do anything stupid. Isn’t this something stupid? How could you think up such a lousy idea like throwing an embroidery ball to pick a husband?”

“How is this a lousy idea? I think it’s a pretty good idea.” Hexin did not agree with Yuan You.

“I think you’re just at your wit’s end and have given up on everything else.” For once, Yuan You was sharp enough to catch this. She frowned and added, “Don’t you know what would happen if you do something like that? There is a high possibility that you would end up picking someone from the bottom of the barrel, a useless and incapable person, or even someone with questionable characteristics. Can you take it?”

“Why are you acting so agitated? It’s just a thought. I’m not planning on really doing that.” Hexin did not know whether to laugh or cry.

“I used to like His Majesty too, didn’t I? I ended up doing okay afterward. You should learn from me, Cousin Hexin,” Yuan You said without batting an eye.

“Alright, alright. I should learn from you. That’s enough. You should leave.” Hexin felt a little tired about everything.

Yuan You finally shut up and went out.

When there was nobody left in the room, Hexin’s shoulders finally fell. There was a lonely, despaired look on her face. She leaned on the table and began to think about everything Long Yin said to her during this period. It left her with a bitter feeling in her heart.

Despite everything he told her, he actually left her behind without second thought.

Hexin was actually a little worried about Lu Xue’s sudden disappearance. After all, Lu Xue was a good person and had taken good care of Hexin when she visited Great Shang.

It was just as Yuan You had said. Great Shang’s frontier was so far away. Was it necessary for Long Yin to be so worried and anxious?

They were only cousins. The one who should be the most worried was Lu Xue’s husband, Wanyan Zhi. What did Long Yin mean by acting the way he did?

Why did he not explain things properly to Hexin before leaving? Did he think she would stop him from rescuing Lu Xue?

Or could this be just an excuse for him to avoid the questions because he did not want to answer her?
