Si Yifeng’s meimei

"I'm honored to be held in high esteem by such a pretty and talented maiden"

The voice interrupted the discussion and caused multiple different reactions to its listeners. Zhao Song made his way through and made a courtesy towards Old Madam Wang.

"Old Madam, congratulations for your birthday"

Seeing the owner of the voice, Yifeng immediately got a mischievous expression, while Fangyi blush got redder and she had an infatuation hard to miss, startling Ming Shu who was looking at her. Since when did her friend like man like Zhao Song?

Unknown to Ming Shu, Wang Fangyi was also surprised by her former friend reaction. Better than anyone she knew how Ming Shu had a very heavy love for Zhao Song since the first time she saw him. But looking at how dismissive she was for the prince, doubts started to appear in Fangyi's mind.

Adding this occurrence, Fangyi thought how many things diverged of the future she remembered, and somehow they all have some connection to the Mings. Did someone from there rebirthed like her... maybe Ming Shu? No. Remembering how Ming Shu just defend her bastard sister, Wang Fangyi shook her head. In her past life the sisters were at odds and she didn't believe that Ming Shu would reconcile with the bastard. Maybe it was her own actions that cause the change somehow.

Before she could continue her train of thought the voice of her grandmother interrupted it.

"Your Highness this Old Lady is honored to be grant your glorious presence in her humble birthday. I can die happy after having you come to congratulate me"

"How could it be Old Madam? Fangyi would be sadden if you died. You should at least live long enough to see her grandchildren don't you think Si Second Young Master?"

Before Yifeng answered, Ming Shu butted in the conversation. She didn't know what objective Zhao Song had throwing the question to Si Yifeng, but knowing their current relationship situation, it was probably nothing good.

"Prince Song is right grandmother! Shu'er also wants your to meet her children, or else who will teach them how to play with a leaf?!"

"Haha. Shu'er you are absolutely right! No one else can teach the children the beauty of leaf music. I must not let this lost art be forgotten!"

Zhao Song looked at Ming Shu like an amused older brother.

"Oh. I didn't know that the prodigy couldn't play some instrument. Jinghua will be delighted to hear she can finally beat you at something"

Ming Shu frowned at his answer. She never liked how Zhao Song was able to lie so easily . He talked as if he was rather close to Jinghua, but the truth is that they're close to be mortal enemies. Besides, the Princess actually beat her a few day ago with a painting...

"It seems Your Highness doesn't know but a few days ago Princess Jinghua successfully beat Xiao Shu"

Si Yifeng immediately exposed Zhao Song slip. A few days ago his Meimei told he over and over how she finally beat 'the cocky brat'. Because only his sister only told him and his mother, the rest of the Palace still thought Mung Shu was unbeaten.

Seeing the displeased face on Ming Shu to have her defeat made public and the hidden rage in his brother's eyes, Yifeng felt it was totally worth coming to this party. Should he play a little more with them?

"But I guess it's understandable that the busy Prince Song didn't now about it. If not my meimei I would also be in the dark"

Almost everyone got a puzzled expression. Since when did the Si Manor had a Young Miss? How did they not know about?

The only ones who had different expressions were Ming Shu, Zhao Song and Wang Fangyi. While Ming Shu had a questioning gaze, the other two had fear and anger in their gaze. Was Yifeng going to reveal his identity in this banquet?

Noticing the different gazes, Si Yifeng was a bit startled and puzzled about Fangyi's gaze, but opened a smile not long after. 'Interesting'

Gritting his teeth, Zhao Song forced himself to calm down and after making quick countermeasures, he asked what was in everyone's mind.

"I was unaware the Si Manor had a young Miss"

"My Meimei is not from the Si Manor..."

Seeing his brother was ready to pounce on hi, Yifeng's smile became deeper. 'Dear Brother you're too entertaining'

"... is more like a sworn sister instead. Isn't it right, Xiao Shu?"

Ming Shu only snorted in response. She never saw someone who liked to play with people as much as Si Yifeng in her both lives!

Zhao Song relaxed a bit after hearing the answer, but still was alert. He knew Si Yifeng and Ming Peng are friends, but he didn't mind since Ming Peng didn't have much weight in the Lis. But everything changed if Ming Shu and Si Yifeng are close.

His gaze sharpened. It seems he will need to punish some of his dark guard troops later.
