“I think, we should properly talk!” Yun Shi Zheng sat on the chair, pointed at a chair and said: “Sit.”
“……Yes.” Jie Yi sat down.
For a period of time, didn’t know how to start, two people looking at each other blankly for half a day, afterwards Yun Shi Zheng finally cleared his throat and began to speak: “E, that, Yi’r ah, you come to the Yun Family also not for a short while already, adapt to everything yet?”
“Mm, everyone is treating Jie Yi very well.”
“It is a little too much.” Yun Shi Zheng muttered to himself. Hesitating for a while, he pointed at an obvious red mark on Jie Yi’s neck. “Is that done by Tian Yang?” He with a very small percentage of hope asked.
“That?” Jie Yi unconsciously caressed his neck.
“Forget it! Forget it!” Yun Shi Zheng sighed, he truly was a busybody. “That……That…… Do you like Tian Yang?”
Jie Yi was shocked, uncomfortably hung down his eyes.
“Everybody is very nice, I like everyone.”
“We don’t need to go round the curves and skirting the corners1.” Yun Shi Zheng leaned forward, earnestly looked at Jie Yi. “It is Tian Yang who forced you, you don’t have any feeling towards him, isn’t it?”
“No……It is not……” Jie Yi hadn’t finished his line, already got cut off.
“Definitely like that, it can’t be wrong. Tian Yang has always been overbearing. You must be in fear of the Master’s authority, so that you have no choice but to submit to him.” Yun Shi Zheng assumed the correct things by himself.
“Don’t be afraid. As long as you honestly say it, I will make Tian Yang put a little distant from you.” He patted Jie Yi’s hand. “Two men together like this, is a little outrageous, isn’t it?”
“Young Master didn’t force me!” Jie Yi denied.
In front of Yun Shi Zheng, Jie Yi still referred his position as a servant, of course would call Tian Yang as Young Master. In spite of Tian Yang’s objection, he still didn’t have the intention to correct himself.
“It is my own wishful thinking towards Young Master. It has nothing to do with Tian Yang Young Master. Everything is my fault.” Jie Yi hurriedly added. “It is true, Young Master is deceived by me!”
“How can it be?” Yun Shi Zheng curiously asked.
“In the beginning, Young Master thought that I am a woman, also his bride, that’s why the pretending act became real……”
“So it was like that!” Yun Shi Zheng finally knew the sequence of events. “Indeed had troubled you. Tian Yang also too much, that grass and mud house is a storehouse, how can be a place to live in? And he could think it out!”
“At that time, he hated me so much!” Jie Yi because of recalling that memory softly laughed. “All the time wanted to chase me out to leave quickly, he didn’t know that I from long ago have been used to that kind of hardship life. But I feel very sorry towards Tian Yang, I didn’t know the Yun Family was basically is so wealthy, still got him to make a bed, make table and chairs, really had troubled him.”
“What trouble?” Yun Shi Zheng waved his hands. “That is what he deserved.”
“Actually Young Master was also very much suffering. When in grass and mud house, Whatever I cooked he ate, not the least bit complained. I also wasn’t like in his imagination bride, not beautiful at all, and then, riding a horse also got hurt, he completely took care of me, I had caused him to be tired.”
“You rode which horse?”
“Shandian.”
“No wonder you got hurt! Shandian is the most violent horse in the ranch. Tian Yang did it on purpose?”
“…… Afterwards I found out, actually he also hid many things from me.”
“Now I can see why Tian Yang can…….ehm…… like you.” He still couldn’t say out this ‘love’ word. “And Jie Yi, what about you? How can you like Tian Yang?”
“……I…… Initially…… I don’t really understand it at all.” Jie Yi nervously twisted his fingers. Regarding self-analysis of the load on his mind, he was not an expert at all.
“You don’t understand?” Yun Shi Zheng was astonished.
“Initially, I……only wanted a family. Because Tian Yang said he only wanted a wife in name only, I thought it wouldn’t be a problem, he could have a wife, and I could have the family that I had lost long ago. Afterwards……” Jie Yi’s eyes because of recalling the memory became misty. “Afterwards being discovered by Tian Yang, he asked me to leave, I just left. However……”
“However what?”
“After leaving, the heart always felt so heavy, for no reason longing for Tian Yang.” Jie Yi said difficultly. “We obviously had no relation at all, but I have always thought about him, helplessly thought about him.”
He continued his talk in a mutter: “After that, I finally understand this feeling was missing, that heavy feeling was loneliness. By then I finally knew, without my awareness, I have fallen for Tian Yang.”
Hearing Jie Yi evenly narrated, Yun Shi Zheng as if could feel that kind of mood, couldn’t help but be in a daze.
“Originally wanted to quietly leave, for the last time went to the grass and mud house, then return to Jiang
