I insist

Chapter 324: A Short Story

Yu Huailin knew that Song Miqiu wanted him to stop thinking so much, so he nodded in agreement.

"If she flies up to the sky, what will happen to Hou Yi on the ground?" Yu Huailin felt a little sorry for the two of them.

"Finally, on the fifteenth of each month, Hou Yi would place her favorite fresh fruit on the incense table."

Yu Huailin expressed dissatisfaction with this outcome, wondering why they couldn't stay together forever.

"Why not? He could find a way to fly up there!"

I don't know why Song Miqiu is so serious about a story!

"This is just a story."

Yu Huailin also felt that he was being too serious.

"Don't worry, I won't leave you alone. I'll always be with you." As Yu Huailin spoke, he held Song Miqiu's hand tightly.

Song Miqiu also held Yu Huailin tightly as the two stood by the river.

"How's the investigation going?"

After Yu Huailin escorted Song Miqiu back to her room, he went outside. The guards quickly jumped down from the tree and said...

"Master, I can't find out the truth. I've investigated everything about Consort Li and the Empress Dowager's family. Do you have any instructions, Your Majesty?"

"Let Consort Li's younger brother incur a debt. Let the Empress Dowager's father get into some trouble."

Yu Huailin was thinking of finding something for Consort Li and the Empress Dowager's family to do, so that they wouldn't have time to deal with Song Miqiu.

"Yes..." After saying this, the guard disappeared again.

Consort Li was suddenly summoned by her family, who demanded money to ransom her brother. Consort Li was already struggling in her own palace, and now she had to clean up the mess left by her family.

Consort Li was anxious and tried every means to raise money.

The situation wasn't much better for the Empress Dowager either; she was constantly asking for favors and getting things done, with no time to relax at all.

On the contrary, Song Miqiu is now leisurely eating melon seeds and drinking tea. He is busy in the palace and has nothing to do at home.

Song Miqiu felt that these days were rather boring.

"Um, Liu Xiaoyue is here again." The maid was so annoyed by Liu Xiaoyue that she had no choice but to come in and announce her arrival.

Song Miqiu was speechless when she heard about Liu Xiaoyue. Was this person shameless? She came to visit their house every day, and even after being rejected, she would still come.

"I'll go and refuse her." The maid knew that Song Miqiu didn't like Liu Xiaoyue, so she thought she would refuse her as usual.

The maid was about to refuse when Song Miqiu stopped her: "Wait a minute, wait a minute, go and call Liu Xiaoyue in!"

Song Miqiu was incredibly bored. Since someone had come, she decided to play along with him.

When Liu Xiaoyue heard that Song Miqiu wanted her to come in, she was overjoyed.

"I heard you were sick. Are you feeling better?"

This time, Liu Xiaoyue didn't directly ask Yu Huailin when she came in. Instead, she showed concern for Song Miqiu, which made Song Miqiu feel flattered.

"I'm fine. Why do you come to my house every day? What's the matter?" Song Miqiu didn't beat around the bush and just wanted to know what tricks Liu Xiaoyue was up to.

"No, no, I just wanted to come and see you!" Liu Xiaoyue said, feigning concern.

Song Miqiu didn't believe that Liu Xiaoyue was genuinely concerned about her.

Yu Huailin brought in a fruit platter and immediately saw Liu Xiaoyue, his eyes filled with disdain.

As soon as Liu Xiaoyue saw Yu Huailin arrive, she rushed over to him, but Yu Huailin bypassed her and went straight to Song Miqiu's side.

"Miqiu, you're not feeling well, you should eat more fruit." He then fed Song Miqiu some fruit from the fruit platter.

Song Miqiu felt a little embarrassed and ate the food herself. Liu Xiaoyue felt indescribably sad when she saw this.

"Young Master Yu, I came here today especially to see you. Look, these are some pastries I made." Liu Xiaoyue prepared to serve the pastries.

Yu Huailin simply shook his head and refused.

Liu Xiaoyue felt a little sad. She brought the pastries to Yu Huailin, who took them directly. Liu Xiaoyue was secretly pleased.

He called out to the maid outside, and she hurriedly came in.

Yu Huailin handed the pastries to the maid and said, "Here, have some!"

The maidservant felt the weight of the pastries as if they were hot potatoes. This was because Liu Xiaoyue was glaring at her fiercely.

After all, their masters were Song Miqiu and Yu Huailin, so they took the pastries and left.

Liu Xiaoyue was so angry she almost vomited blood when she saw the maid take her pastries away.

"Yu Huailin, why are you humiliating me like this? Even if you don't want to eat, you can't just ruin my feelings like this."

Yu Huailin had already been very polite to Liu Xiaoyue, who was so shameless.

"If you have any dignity, you should leave now." Yu Huailin didn't even want to talk to Liu Xiaoyue; he already disliked him quite a bit.

Seeing Liu Xiaoyue's sullen face, Song Miqiu quickly said, "That's right. Young Master Yu, can't you be a little more polite to Liu Xiaoyue?"

Yu Huailin remained silent.

“Liu Xiaoyue, don’t you think so?” Song Miqiu looked at Liu Xiaoyue.

Liu Xiaoyue nodded, indicating that she truly meant well.

Yu Huailin knew that Song Miqiu was clearly annoying, but she still pretended to be like this, so he could only accompany her.

“Young Master Yu, do you think anyone with a shred of self-respect would bother a man like this?”

Song Miqiu's sudden change of tone left Liu Xiaoyue stunned.

"What do you mean by that?" Liu Xiaoyue asked with a resentful expression.

"Wasn't my message clear enough? I told you to stop bothering Huai Lin; she already has someone else in her heart." Song Miqiu didn't have the patience to keep arguing with Liu Xiaoyue.

Yu Huailin echoed, "Yes, I have someone I love, so please stay away from me."

The two of them teamed up to argue with Liu Xiaoyue, who was extremely embarrassed and couldn't win the argument at all!

"Song Miqiu, do you really have something going on with Yu Huailin? You old cow eating young grass!" Liu Xiaoyue was so angry that she could only use what she had heard outside to provoke Song Miqiu.

Song Miqiu, however, was not angry.

He said directly, "That's right, I'm an old cow eating young grass, but no one has eaten young grass like you yet."

Liu Xiaoyue was so angry she almost vomited blood. Pointing at Song Miqiu, she couldn't speak, finally managing to stammer, "You..."

"You're shameless..."

"I'm shameless, what can you do about it!"

Liu Xiaoyue never expected Song Miqiu to be so shameless, admitting to everything she said.

"You have the nerve to leave now? You keep bothering Yu Huailin at my house. Don't even think about Yu Huailin."

Liu Xiaoyue slammed the door and stormed out, while her maid stood at the doorway watching with amusement. Liu Xiaoyue snapped at the maid, "What right does a servant have to laugh?"

The maidservant quickly turned and left.

Without Liu Xiaoyue, the space became quiet, and Song Miqiu continued to eat sunflower seeds.

"Yu Huailin, tell me, how are you going to repay me? I did you a huge favor by helping you get rid of Liu Xiaoyue."

Yu Huailin quickly took a melon seed from Song Miqiu's hand and said, "How can I repay you? Only by offering myself to you?"
