Yu Youyao had a nightmare. In her dream, she was married to the Marquis’ son, Song Mingzhao, and had become a mere medicine-human for her third sister, Yu Jianjia. After having blood extracted from her heart for three years, Yu Youyao’s life was nearing its end, so her wrist was slit and she died just like that.
Upon waking up, her heart thumped wildly and she decided to choose the first man she saw to escape that tragic fate. Thus, she clung onto the leg of her maternal cousin who had come all the way from the You Kingdom. “Cousin, I’ll be good to you for the rest of my life.” 
Zhou Linghuai looked at the girl nestled in his arms. She had a lovely face and puppy eyes. Despite his usual ruthlessness, he suddenly found himself unable to reject her. And so, he became Yu Youyao’s protector, helping her to take revenge on those who bullied her, fend off the schemes of others, and reject all of her suitors. He even helped her attain glory and magnificence. 
Once Yu Youyao reached adulthood, events started to progress according to her dream. The Marquis’s son, Song Mingzhao, had indeed come to request for her hand in marriage. However, Zhou Linghuai pressed Yu Youyao against the wall and said in a low voice, “You’re mine. You can’t marry anyone else!”

All Hail Cousin Brother

Yang Shuwan's heart skipped a beat. She couldn't be bothered to eat anymore and quickly went to the outer room. "Nanny, why are you here? Do you have any instructions for me?"

Nanny Liu looked at Madam Yang with a smile, as seeing that she didn't look too good, she knew that she had been having a bad day. "Old Madam feels that everyone in the residence is too undisciplined. Not only are they gossiping, but they're also allowing the matters of the residence to be spread outside and causing Eldest Master trouble."

Yang Shuwan's expression stiffened.

Nanny Liu was clearly implying that she had no manners and had been gossiping in front of Master, while also insinuating that she was not competent in managing the household, and was only capable of playing tricks to deceive her Master.

Only she knew whether the heart of the lotus seed was truly bitter.

Damned Old Woman, She's Too Vicious
