Dongfang Ming saw that she agreed and he felt delighted for some reason. He felt that being able to show his painting skills in front of her was something to be proud of.

The three of them chatted happily while they ate breakfast. Looking at this made Wang Xiangyun's eyes hurt.

Why couldn't Brother Ming treat her the way he treated them?

Why couldn't Brother Ming return some of her love?

Why couldn't Brother Ming show her a bit of happiness and love?

As Wang Xiangyun thought of this, unconsciously, tears started streaming down...

"My lady, what's wrong?" Little Tian saw this and felt pain in her heart. She took out a handkerchief to wipe away her tears.

Wang Xiangyun shook her head and told her not to worry. "It's nothing. My eyes just suddenly feel uncomfortable."

Ming Yan saw Wang Xiangyun crying from the corner of his eyes. He turned his body to the side again ever so slightly. He had seen such a scene many times before and it would make him feel irritated every time.

On the other side, Liu Duo put down her chopsticks. She was in a particularly good mood and she said with a smile, "I'm full. Today's breakfast was so delicious! The rice was sweet, the flowers are sweet, and taking in all this sweetness makes me feel like I'm getting the treatment of a goddess."

Both Ye Ling and Dongfang Ming put down their chopsticks and their faces were also filled with smiles.

"If you want, we can come back again in the future. Or we can plant a field of lotus flowers near your house. That way, you will be able to enjoy the sweet aromas without having to go elsewhere."

Dongfang Ming lightly fanned his fan. He always had that elegant son of a nobility image about him.

Ye Ling nodded and echoed his thoughts. "Duo Er, I think Brother Ming's suggestion is quite good. If you'd like, we will plant a field of lotus flowers for you."

"There's no need. Our house is already surrounded by green bamboo and that is already quite good. If the bamboo got mixed with the lotus flowers, it wouldn't look as pleasing." Liu Duo shook her head and disagreed with them.

Of the different types of flowers, lotus flowers were her favorite, but when compared to bamboo, they still lost out by just a little.

Liu Duo then continued to say, "Dongfang, aren't you going to paint me and Ling? Have you prepared your brush and paper yet?"

If he hadn't prepared them, wouldn't it mean he was just playing with them?

"Of course. I prepare them every time I go to appreciate flowers."

As Dongfang Ming spoke, he waved at Ming Yan, indicating he could now ask someone to clear the chopsticks and bowls.

Ming Yan was paying attention to them at all times so when he saw it, he knew clearly what to do.

He immediately called on the servant who was standing by not far away to go over to Liu Duo and clear their bowls and chopsticks.

Wang Xiangyun got up, tidied her skirt, lifted her leg, and prepared to go over.

"Miss Wang, young master hasn't asked you to go." The sharp-eyed and agile Ming Yan immediately moved sideways and blocked the way again, not letting her through.

When Little Tian heard him, she also reacted quickly and pushed Ming Yan. "Mr. Dongfang already said just now that my lady will be able to go meet Mr. Ye once they finish breakfast. Why did you block the way again? Step aside!"

Err…

Ming Yan momentarily didn't know how to reply. He thought about it and what she said didn't sound wrong.

However, from the look of Dongfang Ming's eyes, he didn't indicate to Ming Yan to let Wang Xiangyun through.

While Ming Yan was left feeling stunned, Wang Xiangyun took advantage and slipped by him from his side. It just so happened he was pushed slightly to the side by Little Tian.

"Miss Wang, you…"

In response, when Ming Yan regained his senses, he frowned and quickly went after her to stop her. However, Little Tian pulled him.

"Ming Yan, you'd better stay here! Our lady can go through now. You dare to disobey your master's words?" Little Tian said to him angrily and fiercely.
