She closed the door to her palace, took off her clothes, and placed them by the screen.

She was soaking in the bathtub, very comfortable.

After a while, Qi Posheng stood outside her palace. The door in front of him was closed. He raised his long, bony hand and knocked on the door.

A few seconds later, Yun Shuyan’s voice, filled with comfort, came from inside the palace.

“Come in.”

Qi Posheng frowned, such a weak voice, he thought something had happened to her. He raised his hand and pushed the door open.

The door to the palace opened, it was warm inside, and the mist became thicker as he walked in.

Yun Shuyan was getting up and adding hot boiling water to the bathtub, until the temperature was to her satisfaction.

Her graceful and plump figure was vaguely visible through the screen, it directly collided with Qi Posheng’s pupils.

He stopped abruptly, for the first time in his life, his posture froze.

Qi Posheng’s stunningly beautiful face didn’t change expression, he was cold and aloof, but… it was unclear whether it was the steam or something else, his fair ears were flushed red.

“Sister, I’m taking a bath, what do you want?”

Yun Shuyan spoke to him through the screen while she was soaking in the bath. She thought that there was nothing to be embarrassed about, since they were both girls, and there was a screen between them.

After a while, she heard her beautiful neighbor say, “Have dinner together on New Year’s Eve.”

Hearing this, Yun Shuyan happily agreed, “Just right, I made a few dishes, let’s take them to your place and eat.”

“Hmm.”

His voice sounded for a moment, then there was the sound of the door opening and closing.

Yun Shuyan was puzzled, her beautiful neighbor’s voice seemed a little hoarse today? Could he have caught a cold?

She soaked until the water was warm, then got up and put on her new clothes, ready to celebrate the New Year with joy.

Shuyan went to the small kitchen and put three dishes in the food box. This food box was the one the eunuch used to carry food on the Moon Festival, it had never been taken away.

She carried the food box to her beautiful neighbor’s palace. Today was New Year’s Eve, the sky outside was gray and gloomy, the wind was biting cold, she wondered if it would snow later.

“Knock knock…” She knocked on the door of the neighboring palace.

After a while, the door opened, Qi Posheng’s jade-like face appeared at the door, his gaze seemed to sweep up and down her unintentionally.

“Sister, Happy New Year.”

Yun Shuyan’s cloak was snow-white, her black hair was soft and flowing down her back, her beauty was like a fish out of water, she wasn’t wearing any makeup, but it was impossible not to be captivated by her beauty.

She smiled at him, Qi Posheng stared at her charming face, he didn’t look away for several seconds.

He said calmly, “Hmm, come in.”

She carried the food box into the palace, chattering to him, most of the time she didn’t get a response.

Yun Shuyan knew he was listening silently, with her voice there, the warm palace was filled with her chatter.

The food box was placed on the table. There were already all kinds of dishes on the table. She was stunned, so… many dishes?!

She was a little embarrassed, it seemed like the three dishes in the food box were too simple, she took out the three dishes, her ears turned red with embarrassment.

She looked up to find Qi Posheng, she saw him sitting on the chair again, picking up a book and reading, he didn’t notice her.

Yun Shuyan was too embarrassed, she placed the three dishes in the farthest corner of her side. She went to another table to serve rice,

“Sister, let’s have New Year’s Eve dinner.”

“Hmm.”

The usually desolate and cold cold palace was now warm and lively. Although there were only two of them, Yun Shuyan felt very lucky to have met her beautiful neighbor.

She ate and watched her beautiful neighbor eat. Qi Posheng’s dining manners were elegant, it was truly pleasing to the eye.

Qi Posheng sat beside her and reached out to pick up a piece of the dish she had made.

Yun Shuyan felt like she was about to be moved to tears. There were so many good dishes on the table, he… actually ate so much of it, she was even embarrassed to take out those three dishes.

“Sister, thank you.” For always helping her.

Qi Posheng didn’t raise his eyelids, “Why are you thanking me?”

“Since I was thrown into the cold palace, you’ve helped me a lot, including the dishes I made, you even eat so much of them.”

Qi Posheng said, “It’s my duty to thank you for eating the food you made.”

Yun Shuyan was stunned, she didn’t know how to respond to him.

“Eat.” He said coldly.

Yun Shuyan came back to her senses and responded, she didn’t hesitate to continue picking up food and eating.

After finishing the New Year’s Eve dinner, the sky outside was completely dark, the candles in the palace were lit by Qi Posheng.

Because it was the New Year, Yun Shuyan had drunk a lot of rice wine. She couldn’t hold her liquor, she was tipsy, she said all sorts of nonsense to Qi Posheng.

“Sister, you’re so beautiful… you’re the most beautiful woman I’ve ever seen.”

Qi Posheng lowered his eyes and looked at the book under the candlelight, he didn’t pay any attention to her “nonsense.”

The candle flickered, a fragrance of flowers lingered in the air. Before he could look up, Yun Shuyan’s slender, jade-like arm wrapped around his neck from behind, her beautiful face, like a flower and like jade, was buried in his side neck.

Her soft breath and the scent of flowers on her body were all challenging his reason.

Qi Posheng tightly grasped the book in his hand, his lowered eyes couldn’t reveal his emotions.

“Sister…” She pouted, she didn’t care if she kissed him or not, she just wanted to be close to him.

Qi Posheng slowly took a deep breath, he reached out and held her hand, her slender hand felt soft in his palm, he didn’t want to use force.

“Although sister doesn’t pay attention to me, I still like sister very much.”

“You’re drunk.” He said in a hoarse voice.

Yun Shuyan’s body swayed back and forth like she was acting cute, “Even when I’m drunk, I like sister.”

Qi Posheng clearly felt the fullness of the woman behind him, he saw the scene he had witnessed through the screen in the evening.

His Adam’s apple bobbed up and down, as if he was suppressing some kind of emotion.
