"Concubine An must have made you do a lot of things you don't want to do, right?" Father-in-law Xiaowei asked with a concerned look.

Cuiyun smiled, did not answer, and then handed a piece of osmanthus cake to Xiaowei's father-in-law.

"What? Are you afraid that I will be poisoned? Xiaowei's father-in-law smiled.

Cuiyun pursed her lips and smiled, and asked, "Then, will you?" ”

Why would she ask that? Is she still wary of me?

Xiao Wei's father-in-law was nervous for a while, and his eyes wandered back and forth on Cuiyun's face, hoping to find her true thoughts from the subtle changes in expression on her face.

However, the expression on Cuiyun's face never changed, and he always smiled faintly.

After a while, Xiaowei's father-in-law opened his mouth, gently took a bite of osmanthus cake, and muttered, "It's delicious!" Sweet and soft, you try. ”

Cuiyun also looked at Xiao Wei's father-in-law, and also wanted to read his sincerity from his face.

It's just that in this world, everyone is an actor and everyone is a chameleon.

They will play different characters and will show good or evil for different needs.

In this world, everyone is a liar and a fool at the same time.

Especially when you have deceived yourself, especially when you want to be deceived.

Cuiyun slowly withdrew his hand, hesitated for a moment, broke the osmanthus cake in his hand in half, and returned the piece that Xiaowei's father-in-law had bitten to him.

Xiaowei's father-in-law was stunned, took the rose cake, slowly stuffed it into his mouth, and said in his heart: She returned this half to me, which means that she doesn't believe me? Want to cut me off?

Xiaowei's father-in-law ate slowly and methodically, while staring at Cuiyun.

With a smile, Cuiyun silently ate half of the osmanthus cake in his hand, and he didn't know if the smile was because the osmanthus cake was delicious or because of something else.

"You...... What do you think it tastes like? Father-in-law Xiaowei asked cautiously.

"It's delicious." Cuiyun replied with a smile.

"That's good...... It is said that life is too hard, and if you eat some sweets, you will feel happy.

Concubine An is short-tempered and treats us very ...... Particularly severe...... You shouldn't have suffered less, right?

Eat more, and you'll be happier. Father-in-law Xiaowei said, lowering his eyes.

Cuiyun sneered self-deprecatingly, and then said softly:

"A few pieces of osmanthus cake can't make my heart sweeter.

Thank you, though, for whatever reason. ”

"There's no other reason than that we're all pathetic.

Poor people, it's okay to keep each other warm, right? Xiaowei's father-in-law said with a smile.

Cuiyun's face was slightly red, chewing osmanthus cake, and nodding silently.

"Actually, if you have any troubles, you can tell me.

Sometimes, as long as you talk about your troubles, your heart will feel much easier.

You see, you're going to have a fold on your forehead, and that's not good.

I promise, I won't tell anyone your secrets. Xiaowei's father-in-law approached Cuiyun and lowered his voice and said.

Cuiyun pursed her lips and smiled, and then said, "Secret? What secret? ”

"Of course it's your troubles, those troubles that make you frown and make you look discolored."

Xiaowei's father-in-law said, reaching out to lift the scattered sideburns around Cuiyun's ears and pinning them behind his ears.

Cuiyun shrank back shyly, and then said, "Did you know that such troubles usually represent secrets.

Since it's a secret, of course, you can't just tell it to others. ”

"Can't even say it?" Father-in-law Xiaowei tried to pretend to be a romantic appearance and smiled.

Cuiyun shook her head with a smile, and then asked rhetorically, "Why do you think I will tell you my secret?" ”
