What does he mean by being polite and courteous when eating? Was he not like that before? Is that what he means?

 

Jin Shiwei’s face reddened in embarrassment, but he didn’t refuse because of this embarrassment. He thought to himself that since he had already been given an order. If he still refuses, wouldn’t it be a bad thing? He better eat and drinks before leaving.

Meng Nan wanted to serve Bai Zhi, but Hu Feng was in between them. He couldn’t succeed every time he tried. No matter what he picked, it ended up in Hu Feng’s bowl.

Looking at the two young men competing, Dongfang Mu’s eyes were full of smiles. They all like Bai Zhi before she even learned her own identity. They like her because of who she is and not because of her identity, which made him very happy. This kind of feeling was the purest.

It’s just a pity that there was only one Bai Zhi in this word. So he naturally gives his support to his student.

 

Dongfang Mu said to Meng Nan: “Meng Nan since you are Zhi’er’s lifesaver and you are familiar with Yan’er. How about you be their marriage witness?”

Meng Nan was stunned. The corn in his chopsticks fell into the bowl. He looked straight at Dongfang Mu and saw him talking, but he couldn’t hear his voice anymore.

He didn’t know how the dinner ended, nor how he got out of Dongfang Family Mansion. When he got into the carriage, Jin Shiwei gave him a hard push. Only then he woke up but found that they were already returning home.

Jin Shiwei said: “Gongzi, there are plenty of fragrant flowers in the grassland, since the flower in front of you belong to someone else, just give up and let it go!”

Meng Nan bitterly smiled: “Can the feelings that have been given away can be taken back? If it’s so easy as you said, how can there be so many people in this world be trapped by love?”

Jin Shiwei doesn’t understand those things. He only knows his young master and Bai Zhi were hopeless. No matter how much he loves her, it’s useless. It’s better to let go, maybe he a better girl will appear.

Their carriage soon arrived in Meng Family Mansion. Meng Nan drank a few glasses of wine today. He didn’t feel drunk when he went out, but when he got out of the carriage, he felt dizzy.

Jin Shiwei helped Meng Nan enter the mansion through the back door. As soon as they entered the door, they were stopped by the housekeeper: “Gongzi, the master is waiting for you in the Sanhe Hall for a long time, please go in there!”

Meng Nan frowned. He felt his head was getting big in dizziness. He doesn’t know why his father was looking for him. He felt so annoyed to death.

Jin Shiwei helped Meng Nan to the Sanhe Hall. Master Meng was walking back and forth in the hall. When he saw the two of them coming, he immediately opened his mouth: “What’s the matter? Are you drunk?”

 

Jin Shiwei dryly laughed: “Master, gongzi didn’t drink much, it’s just a few cups. Gongzi is in a bad mood today, so he drinks a few more cups.”

 

Meng Nan waved his hand: “I’m not drunk, who said I was drunk?” He pushed Jin Shiwei away and he stumbled on the chair. He sat down and picked up his father’s cup and drank the leftover tea.

 

The cold tea that entered his throat and made his messy mind clear. He looked up at his father and asked: “Father, why are you looking for me at this hour, is there something wrong?”

 

Seeing that his son was not drunk, Meng Yuande was very relieved and hurriedly said: “I heard that you went to Prince Jin’s Mansion today, but you didn’t see him. And then you went to Dongfang Family Mansion. Have you seen Master Dongfang?”

Meng Nan smiled and said: “You really sent someone to follow me. You know where I have been very clear.”

Meng Yuande didn’t want to talk about this matter with him now, so he asked, “What are you trying to do? What did you do in Dongfang Family Mansion? Why did you look for Master Dongfang today?”
