Nianzu sipped the tea and looked at Lei Wanxi. "What happened? Why did you request me to see you at this hour? You know that this time I mostly spend with Chun," Nianzu stated.

"Forgive me, Brother Nianzu. I did not intend to ruin your private time with Sister Chun. But it was urgent, that's why I requested you to spare me some time," Lei Wanxi proclaimed. He then told him everything about the suspicions of Zhu Lin on Xue Yu-Yan.

"But, Brother Nianzu, I don't think that Sister Xue is evil. Zhu Lin insisted that I tell Brother Sheng about this. She thinks any mishap could happen like the earlier time. We both knew about Prince Yongzheng, but I informed Brother Sheng about that a little late," Lei Wanxi stated.

"Don't tell Brother Sheng. He might get angry and will think that Sister Xue indeed is planning something," Nianzu advised him.

"I also feel the same," Lei Wanxi answered. "So, what does Brother Nianzu think?" He then asked him.

"Wanxi, Sister Xue is in trouble. Brother Jian is trying to solve it. I cannot tell you the details but I am sure that Sister Xue is not planning anything. It is just that she ended up making a mistake," Nianzu told Lei Wanxi, not the entire incident since he thought Lei Wanxi might leak it out. Moreover, if Sheng Li found out about that, then things would worsen.

"What did Sister Xue do? Hopefully, it is not something big," Lei Wanxi said anxiously.

"Don't tell Princess Zhu Lin about this. She is an overly curious person. Let Brother Jian handle this matter," Nianzu suggested to him.

"What if Zhu Lin asks me. How will I answer her?" Lei Wanxi asked him.

"Just tell the Princess that I will discuss this matter with Brother Sheng," Nianzu told him. Lei Wanxi acknowledged his idea and sipped the remaining tea in his cup.

"I shall take my leave, Brother Nianzu. Thank you for sparing me your time." Lei Wanxi put the cup on the table. Nianzu passed him a smile.

"You are getting married soon," Nianzu told him.

"When?" Lei Wanxi asked him excitedly.

"You are so eager to marry Princess Zhu Lin. It is so strange of you," Nianzu said and grinned.

"Brother Nianzu, remember, you told me that when you are in love then you want to be with the person as soon as possible," Lei Wanxi stated and smiled. "I didn't know when my hate for her turned into love. Probably when she threw a shoe at me. I was never being shown my weak side by anyone," he asserted.

"Shoe at you?" Nianzu was confused to hear that.

"Yes. We had a big fight one day. We pulled each other's hair and got punished by Brother Sheng. That day I found out how much my elder brothers pampered me. I was so confused about my feelings. My heart used to beat strangely. At one instant, I thought it's heart disease," Lei Wanxi said and chuckled. "How naive I was!" He muttered.

Nianzu ended up smiling. "Brother Wanxi has grown up. I am glad that he found his love in a woman, who inspires him to grow," He said and patted his shoulder.

"I used to miss you when I was juggling between my heart and my mind. I missed you a lot. I was even angry at you because you did not even come to see me. We passed through such a tough time, Brother Nianzu. Yet we again came together as a family. I am so happy that you returned," Lei Wanxi stated.

"I would not be able to leave if I had met Brother Wanxi. He knows how close I am to him. That's why I decided to not meet him," Nianzu replied. "Forgive me," he then added.

"Huo Jin protected me as a Brother. I want his happiness too. I talked to him a week ago," Nianzu informed Lei Wanxi.

"What did he say?"

"That he will carry the love for Xinyue till his last breath. Even if she never loved him, her care was enough for him. Whenever Tan Gengxin punished him, Xinyue protected him. She saved him from dying. And he wants to save his love for her till his last breath," Nianzu told Lei Wanxi, who was a little sad to hear that.

"Why did Tan Gengxin involve his daughter in this mess? She would not have turned into such a person and would not have gotten punished then. Huo Jin then could be happy with her," Lei Wanxi said with a fit of rage.

"But Xinyue did not love him. She wanted a man of high status. Huo Jin is in one-sided love. I can feel him. He was a slave with no freedom, no care, nothing. That's why even the little care of Xinyue appeared as love to him," Nianzu stated. "Find a matchmaker for him. I cannot see Huo Jin living an aloof life," he requested Lei Wanxi.

"Brother Nianzu, I will do that, but what if Huo Jin gets angry. We cannot force him to marry," Lei Wanxi said. Nianzu agreed with him. He just got hyper as he cared for Huo Jin as an elder Brother.

"Brother Sheng can be of help. Huo Jin is close to him. After Hu Jingguo's death, Brother Sheng became a little close to him," Lei Wanxi suggested an idea to Nianzu.

"You are right. Brother Sheng and Huo Jin are close. But there is one problem," he said.

"What?" Lei Wanxi arched his brow.

"Brother Sheng will say that if Huo Jin loves Xinyue, then we should not try to push him to see another woman," Nianzu stated.

"Brother Nianzu, he might do something for Huo Jin as a friend. Don't you think so? Also, I saw Huo Jin coming from the backside hill outside the Palace. Today I went behind him and found that he started to write poems to her. I felt that Huo Jin deserves much better than Xinyue, who is dead. He is such a great man and seeing him like this sometimes hurts.. He helped us so much, yet we didn't do anything for him," Lei Wanxi said and sighed deeply.
