At the main hall's entrance, as soon as Wei Luo saw Liang Yu Rong pushing Wei Chang Yin over here, she felt discouraged from the turn of events.

She strived to stop this for so long, but what was meant to be, will always happen in the end.

Liang Yu Rong and Wei Chang Yin were approaching closer to her.

Liang Yu Rong properly called him, "Older brother." Wei Chang Yin nodded, said a few words with her, and instead of lingering here, he called a servant to bring back to his room.

Liang Yu Rong watched Wei Chang Yin leave, then she walked to Wei Luo's side, and doubtfully said, "Ah Luo, I though you were feeling unwell. Why did you still come here?"

Wei Luo's expression was solemn. She answered her question with another question, "Where did you go with my eldest cousin?"

Liang Yu Rong pointed at the small hall. Seeing that Wei Luo was deadly earnest, she though that something serious had happened, so she frankly said, "We went there to listen to a monk speak about scriptures." She pulled Wei Luo towards the direction of their rooms and jabbered her complaints, "Those scriptures were really hard to comprehend. I almost fell asleep while listening."

They slowly walked on the limestone-paved path. The guest rooms at the back of the temple were far away from the front courtyard. On the way back, they saw monks wearing simple robes with yellow silk waistbands. The monks would put their palms together in greeting when they saw them. They also properly returned the monks' greetings.

They arrived at the guest rooms. Wei Luo stopped at her room's door, then she turned her head and asked, "Eldest cousin Chang Yin also gave you candy?"

Liang Yu Rong smiled and nodded. She thought that Wei Luo didn't believe her, so she took out the oil paper that she had neatly folded to show that she hadn't lied, "I decided to give older brother Chang Yin a bag of candy in return. Ah Luo, after I buy it, help me by delivering it to him, okay?"

Without even thinking about it, Wei Luo blurted out, "No."

Liang Yu Rong was stunned. She thought that Wei Luo would definitely agree, but Wei Luo had refused without hesitation. At a complete loss, she asked, "Why?"

Why? Of course, it was because it would better if those two had less contact. Since they didn't have many feelings for each other yet, this was time to resolutely make a decision in order to avoid sorrow in the future. Wei Luo pushed open her door, walked inside, "Eldest cousin Chang Yin lives in Banyan Courtyard and rarely comes out. I also rarely see him. It won't be easy to deliver the candy to him."

This reason was really too half-hearted. Who would believe it? They live in the same residence. How could it be difficult for them to see each other? In the end, Wei Luo just didn't want to help her! Liang Yu Rong puffed out her cheeks and stared at the back of Wei Luo's head. Slightly angry, she said, "If you don't help me, then I'll deliver it to him myself!"

Wei Luo stamped her feet, then she carefully thought about the words she would say. If she helped Liang Yu Rong deliver the candy, the two of them wouldn't meet at least. If Liang Yu Rong delivered the candy herself, it was more likely than not that something would happen between them. If she looked at it that way, it would be safer if she helped her.

Wei Luo turned back midway and conceded, "Okay, I'll help you deliver it."

Liang Yu Rong immediately smiled and happily thanked her.

There was a peach tree grove behind Qian Temple that occupied more than half of the mountainside. Wei Luo had seen it on the way here in the carriage. The blossoming peach flowers were beautiful and would charm people into confusion.
