Under the sunlight, Xu Chang'an's Spiritual Power transformed into mist, surrounding the area and adjusting the temperature to a comfortable level.

After Yun Qian said she was unhappy, he became very nervous.

"..."

Xu Chang'an had never imagined that Miss Yun would get upset over something, after all, the only time one could see her get anxious was when she was picking flowers.

He simply couldn't fathom what kind of thing could make her angry.

At this moment, Yun Qian repeated twice that she was unhappy. Xu Chang'an could tell she was genuinely upset... but after thinking about it a lot, he really couldn't figure out what he did to make her unhappy.

Should I not have teased her?

No, that's not right.

That was something in the dream, it doesn't count.

"Did I... do something wrong?" Xu Chang'an asked cautiously.

He couldn't afford not to be cautious; Miss Yun wasn't the type to get angry, but she was the kind to keep things buried in her heart. Some things, if he didn't ask, she would likely keep bottled up inside forever.

"It's not exactly wrong, I'm just a bit unhappy," Yun Qian said, recalling the content of a novel, and asked, "At this moment... should I make you guess why I'm unhappy?"

Xu Chang'an: "..."

Is it just an illusion?

He felt that Miss Yun seemed to be in a pretty good mood.

"Miss, are you really angry?" he asked.

"Just unhappy, not really angry." Yun Qian tilted her head and watched Xu Chang'an for a while, thinking that if she were truly angry, then no way would that system be this quiet.

Even though its backhand wasn't worth mentioning, it would show some reaction.

"Why are you smiling?" Xu Chang'an asked, "Are you tricking me? I truly don't know what upset you, Miss."

Generally speaking, a comment like his would probably lead to a quarrel in a normal marriage.

But Yun Qian wasn't an ordinary girl. She silently watched him for a while, then shifted her gaze to the mist around them.

The memories that surged forward, catching her off guard, not only made her worry about the future but also contained beautiful things... Just like the current everyday life of Miss Yun and Xu Chang'an. Remembering those beautiful memories, how could she not be happy?

Ignorance is bliss.

So she wanted to experience these beautiful things a little longer.

Does it really take one or two days for Miss Yun to process and completely seal these memories?

No.

She just wanted to look at it again, to take another look.

But these things couldn't be told to him.

"..." Yun Qian didn't speak.

Xu Chang'an also didn't speak, quietly watching her.

Even though he didn't want to admit it, Miss Yun's eyes were growing increasingly bright recently. She seemed to possess more and more of that "human" essence... Perhaps he should have brought Yun Qian out for a stroll earlier, instead of always staying cooped up in the small Beisang City.

However, looking into Yun Qian's eyes, Xu Chang'an realized something.

She wasn't joking.

Her mood was genuinely bad.

What kind of look was that?

Like moonlight falling upon the deep sea mist.

Like a spark gradually dissipating in the snow after a flame rises.

It seemed as though she remembered something, and her eyes lit up brightly, but then dimmed until she turned her head and saw the young man sitting beside her, a subtle smile reappearing on her face.

Xu Chang'an was never a dull person, otherwise, he wouldn't always be compared to a delicate girl.

In their daily interactions, he could smell the faint, timeless scent from her very early on.

Since their first meeting, he grew from a child to a young man, but Miss Yun's body showed not a single trace of time.

Her past was probably much more profound than he had imagined.

Yet he rarely brought up this topic.

Ignorance is bliss, Xu Chang'an thought.

What kind of memory did the young lady remember now... Xu Chang'an was very curious, but as a competent steward, the best thing he could do was remain silent.

After a long while, Yun Qian calmly said, "I got distracted."

"I know you have little energy today." Xu Chang'an took hold of Yun Qian's hand and said, "So, Miss, what makes you unhappy? Let me guess... could it be that today's lunch was not to your liking?"

"I liked it very much." Yun Qian patted her belly; the feeling of fullness had not yet dissipated.

"Then..." Xu Chang'an's tone rose a bit, "Could it be because that night I didn't go along with what you wanted and didn't spend some time with you... so you're unhappy?"

"At first, maybe a little." Yun Qian calmly withdrew her hand from Xu Chang'an's and lowered her head, "Later... it didn't matter as much."

What she wanted, she got it all in the dream. That feeling of nearly dying... she couldn't feel it when he wasn't dreaming.

Yun Qian thought Xu Chang'an was dreaming; she was not.

Whenever she got close to him, it would definitely be her real self, not some dream version; otherwise, she wouldn't be so exhausted that even picking flowers was an effort... But since Xu Chang'an didn't ask, she wouldn't say, so it couldn't be considered lying.

"What is it?" Xu Chang'an seemed troubled, "I really can't figure out the reason... Miss, could it be because the gentleman was pestering you, so you're unhappy?"

"It was that day." Yun Qian confirmed.

"Ah? Was it the day the gentleman came as a guest?" Xu Chang'an was stunned.

"Mhm." Yun Qian nodded.

"Miss, you... bear grudges more than I thought," Xu Chang'an said helplessly, "So if I hadn't asked, you really wouldn't have mentioned it?"
