"Know what?" The water flowed slowly, not understanding.

"Master has always had a bosom friend and has never stopped. However, the two of them didn't seem to express their opinions. It seems that Master's heart couldn't let go of the dead lady and she cared about Master's thoughts."

Bing-Er shook her head with a sad face, "I have to say, she is probably the only one who can love Master after so many years."

"Hmm? What kind of person is he? " Water was curious.

"It was my mom, Sang, from the Fragrant Jade Restaurant. She used to be the number one brand there, but after ransoming herself, she bought the place again. All these years, the Fragrant Jade Restaurant has been under the name of the Shui family. She and the Shui family are quite close."

"Jade Fragrance Pavilion?" Shui Long's mouth twitched as he had a bad premonition.

Yes, that's right." The old master's confidante was indeed a talented businessman. It was said that there were two sides of him: a male and a female Courtesan Belle. Guests, men and women alike, this method has earned a lot of money for the Shui Family. " Bing-Er said.

"So, how do you know all this?" Shui Ruo looked at Bing-Er and asked.

"Of course, it was the steward who said that. This servant sometimes helps the steward manage the accounts, and the steward sometimes sighs about it. It's said that the steward had once liked that woman."

"Bing-Er, you look like you know everything. I am really curious, where did you come from?" Shui looked at Bing-Er and sighed.

Bing-Er's body quivered when she heard that. She looked at Shui Ruo, and her expression became lonely. "Perhaps, when Miss really knows who I am, she won't happily accept me."

"Silly girl, no matter what, you will always be my Bing'er." The water laughed innocently.

"Miss." Bing-Er looked at Shui Long excitedly, but he interrupted her, "Okay, let's go to the Jade Fragrance Restaurant to have a look."

"Jade Fragrance Restaurant? Could it be that xiaojie is trying to get along with the old master and that woman? "

"If that woman is really as you say, then it's not impossible to get her together. It would be a good thing if he could stop his father from being lonely in the future. "After all, I won't be by his side forever. Of course, if he can be old, then our Shui Family will have a successor in the future." Shui Ruo spoke up to this point and sped up her pace. Her curiosity towards this so-called bosom friend grew. Bing-Er was a bit confused as she looked at Shui Yuehan's back.

Fragrant Jade Restaurant was very easy to find, it was located in the center of the street.

They didn't open the door during the day, so when the water came in, it was empty.

"Miss, your servant has come to knock on the door." Bing-Er saw that the door was closed, so she went up and knocked on it.

"Who is it? Are you letting me sleep in the middle of the day? " Inside. A woman's voice came.

Shui Long laughed when he heard this. "It's just that you shouldn't sleep in broad daylight."

Along with the words of the water. The inner door was already open. When the door opened, they saw a charming woman wearing a long bra and peony dress slowly walking out.

She was surprised when she saw Bing-Er and Shui Yuehan, but she immediately invited them in.

"Who do I think it is? It is you, you silly girl." You even dare to bring the little miss here. The girl looked at Bing-Er and said.

After saying that, he even made a gesture as if he was going to hit someone. Bing-Er waved her hand, "Please, please, please, please, spare me!"

"Humph!" "Speak, what happened?"

"Are you going to marry my father?" Shui Ruo's words were straightforward. After she finished speaking, with a clatter, the tea set that was used to read the tea in the woman's hand fell to the ground.

Her pupils contracted as she stared at the water in disbelief.

"Are you going to marry him?" Water continued to ask.

The woman's voice was hoarse as she said, "I, I don't know."

"Eh? I don't know. It's really disappointing. I thought you'd agree happily. " Shui Long had a look of disappointment on his face, causing the lady to become even more speechless.

She looked at the water, feeling very complicated. Master Shui had never married her in so many years, and a large part of his reason was that he wanted her to marry into his family. It was impossible to say that he didn't resent her. But now, this girl had actually appeared so calmly in front of her. She had an expression that said "if you don't marry my father, I will be very sad for you." This confused her.

Generally speaking, shouldn't he be afraid of his father marrying him again?

"Big Sister Hong, right? If I say that I want you to marry my father, what will happen to you? "

Shui smiled leisurely as he looked at the woman. The lady replied, "I will only listen to Master's instructions. If Master does not have that intention, no matter who requests it, I will not do it." The woman's attitude was decisive. Forget it, she turned around and went to the darkroom.

"Are you angry?" Shui Long sat in the hall, looking at Bing'er and asked.

"Miss, you are too direct." Bing-Er was weak.

"Is that so? I think it's a good way to test it. It seems that she really likes my father. " Water laughed teasingly.

"Eh? "How can you tell?" Bing-Er was surprised.

"If she didn't really like my father but liked property, she would have been overjoyed when I said those words. But just now, she didn't have the slightest expression of joy, only shock. Apparently it was incredible that I could say such a thing. And then I asked, and she didn't seem very interested. "

Shui laughed leisurely.

"But Miss, we are not making any progress right now, are we?"

"If there's no progress, then it's the biggest progress. It's not bad for this woman to marry into the Shui family." Shui Sheng gazed at the secret door, determined that it was indeed this person.

So she walked forward and said to the door, "Sister Hong, no, Aunt Hong, although I don't know what you think of me, but if it was you who married my father, I wouldn't be angry. All these years, he's been getting more and more lonely, so I think he should find a girl to spend the rest of his life with. After all, I couldn't stay with him forever. However, there are some things that I am unable to give you. "

Shui Yuehan was moved by his words, and the door opened.

The girl walked out from inside. She looked at Shui Long with a complicated gaze, "The first time I saw you, you were still a child. You chased me out of here when I was only four or five years old. I haven't been in the Shui family since. "

"..." Have I ever done that? " Shui Long looked helpless. That's why they care so much about what children do?

"After that, the old master no longer thought about taking me over. In the days that followed, so did we. In the old master's heart, he couldn't forget your mother, and I, too, was deeply preoccupied with this matter. If he can't take the initiative to ask, I definitely won't marry him. It's been so many years already, even if I'm lonely and grow old, it's not bad. "

When the woman spoke, her eyes revealed loneliness that caused Shui to remain silent.

Lonely and old? If it really was like this, then even her father wouldn't be able to let her go, right?

"Aunt Hong, although I don't know what father is thinking, I believe that he must like you too. All these years, only you and him have not broken off, and I haven't seen him have another woman. " Shui Long said in a serious tone.

"Maybe." The woman laughed at herself. Her love rival's daughter had already grown up, but she still couldn't make that person forget her love rival.

What a failure.

"It's New Year's Eve today. If Aunt Hong doesn't mind, you can come with us to the Shui family. "You can be considered a family now." Shui Ruo looked at the woman and invited her to join him.

"Eh? This, this is not good, right? " The woman did not expect Shui Yuehan to invite her. She was at a loss as to what to do.

"Alright, you don't have to push it away. My family's young miss has already said it like that." Bing-Er saw that the girl seemed a bit embarrassed, so she asked.

Hearing their request, the girl could only helplessly agree.

Thus, when Shui Sanjin returned to his residence at noon and prepared to eat lunch, what he saw was a scene like this.

The long table in his dining hall was filled with food, and his daughter was laughing heartily, as if she were telling a joke. Opposite her was his bosom friend, covering her mouth as they laughed happily.

As for the servants, there was only Bing-Er. She was still as lively as ever.

Seeing this scene, Shui Sanjin felt as if he was hallucinating.

"This servant, Bing'er, pays her respects to the lord." Bing-Er's voice was so loud that it made him feel like he was hallucinating.

So, was his soulmate really eating at the same table as his daughter?

Not a dream? Could he go and die?

Shui Sanjin was embarrassed, really embarrassed. Unexpectedly, when Shui Yuehan saw him, he said generously, "Daddy, you're back. I've invited Aunt Hong over to have a reunion dinner with us today."

Where did this reunion come from? Shui Sanjin really wanted to ask Shui Ruo about it, but since this was his only daughter, he was reluctant to say anything even if it was a little absurd.

Moreover, he could roughly guess what his daughter was thinking.

"Master. Should I not have come here? If that's the case, then I, I'll leave immediately. " When the woman named Hong saw Shui Sanjin, she felt a little uneasy. Afraid that he would reject it.

Shui Sanjin looked at the woman, then looked at Shui Long's expectant expression and sighed, "They're all here. Let's talk after the meal."

Upon hearing Shui Sanjin's words, the giant stone in the woman's heart finally fell to the ground.

Although this meal was not considered cozy, it was not too awkward due to Shui Yuehan's unintentional easing of the atmosphere.

After dinner, Shui Ruo made an excuse to go out with Bing'er and left them in the dining room.

Shui Sanjin looked at the woman and said, "I'm sorry, but this daughter of mine is too willful. She always does whatever she thinks of. She doesn't care about your feelings in the slightest."

Shui Sanjin's tone was filled with apology. Hearing that, the lady shook her head: "There is nothing to be sorry about. This time, young lady has actually done something that I had always wanted to do but did not dare to do. If there was no Young Miss, perhaps I would never step foot in this place ever again in my entire life, right? "

"You didn't blame me, right?" Shui Sanjin was embarrassed.

"Why would I blame you?" The woman smiled lightly and looked gently at Shui Sanjin, saying, "In this world, I can blame anyone, but I can't blame the old master. It was I who fell in love with Master, this has nothing to do with Master. Master has treated me differently from other girls all these years, and this already makes me very satisfied, so why would I plead for other things? "

The woman looked at Shui Sanjin with disappointment.

When Shui Sanjin heard this, he opened his mouth but did not say it in the end, "That's good."

"Un, old master is right. That's good then. As expected, I am not really suitable to be here. As long as I come here, I will feel restrained. Perhaps, I am already used to living such a life. " The woman was a bit disappointed when she heard Shui Sanjin's words, but she was used to it.

This person, had always been rejecting her. Even if she had already taken a step forward, she would still be rejected by him in the end, and would then be sent into the abyss.

She had loved him deeply all these years, but never once had she made him take the initiative to be with her.

She had clearly given up her dignity this time, but the result was the same.
