Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

After Yu Heng put down the bowls and chopsticks, Yi Shi and Yang Wan also came. The two of them even took some flour and beans that were good to keep and a bottle of wine as a gift.

Yu Heng exchanged a few pleasantries with the two of them before accepting it. Then, he thanked them.

Yi Ke propped her chin on her hand and sat in her seat to watch. She knew that visiting required a gift, but she had never seen such a shabby gift. She hadn’t seen it in her previous life, and she certainly wouldn’t in this life.

Every year, many people come to visit the Yi family with exquisite gift boxes.

After everyone sat down, the banquet officially began. Yu Yu picked up some food and ate by himself. Yu Xiang, on the other hand, was so flustered that her hands keep trembling. She didn’t pick up any food a few times.

Yu Heng glanced at his sister, who was obviously not right, and Yi Ke, who said that she wanted to eat but rarely picked up her chopsticks. He silently picked up a piece of meat for Yu Xiang.

“Brother Yu Heng, thank you for helping me catch the pheasant. I’ll toast you!” Yi Shi saw Yi Ke as soon as she entered the door. She ignored Yi Ke and opened the wine, poured a glass for everyone. She smiled and raised the glass to toast Yu Heng.

Yu Heng didn’t refuse and downed his glass.

Yang Wan sat in her seat and felt a chill on her back. When she looked up, she met Yi Ke’s gaze and hurriedly lowered her head. She was a little uneasy and felt that Yi Ke knew Yi Ke’s identity.

Yi Ke glanced at Yang Wan. She didn’t take Yang Wan seriously. Yi Shi was the one she had to deal with. After three rounds of wine, Yi Shi raised her glass again. She seemed to be unable to withstand the alcohol, and her face was already slightly flushed.

The few times she drank just now, she had always thanked Yu Heng for taking care of her. Yi Ke did not stop her. Now, she still wanted to raise her glass. How much had Yu Heng helped her? Yi Ke frowned unhappily and heard Yi Shi say softly, “Brother Yu Heng, I remember that you study very well…”

Here it comes! The words to ask for help and then find a way to close the distance!

Before Yi Shi could finish, Yi Ke poked Yu Xiang. The little girl had been tense throughout the meal, and she almost jumped up when Yi Ke poked her, scaring everyone.

“Brother… Brother, my stomach hurts.” Yu Xiang covered her stomach and tried to attract Yu Heng’s attention with her clumsy acting skills.

Yu Heng was also shocked by Yu Xiang. He thought that something was wrong with his sister previously and thought that she was really unwell. He hurriedly brought her outside to use the toilet.

“Sorry, you guys eat first. Excuse me for a moment.”

The toilet in the countryside was not a public toilet. It was a dry toilet made of two simple wooden boards and a few bricks. Children had to be accompanied by adults when they went to the toilet, just in case they fell down.

Yu Heng brought his sister out. Yi Ke simply swaggered back into her chair like a mountain king.

Seeing her like this, Yi Shi didn’t dare to speak. She silently picked up her food and ate. Not to mention Yang Wan as she basically avoided Yi Ke’s gaze. Only Yu Yu, who didn’t understand what was going on, looked around, and then began to carefully pick up food. The dining table fell into a strange silence.

Fortunately, Yu Xiang and Yu Heng returned very quickly. Yu Heng looked at Yi Shi apologetically and said, “I’m sorry.”

“It’s alright. Is Sister Xiangxiang alright? Are you still feeling unwell?” Yi Shi looked at Yu Xiang with concern. The little girl didn’t say anything and kept hiding.

“It should be better. By the way, what were you about to say?”

“Oh, I remember that your grades were very good before. I didn’t go to school for many years, so I want you to teach me math.” Yi Shi smiled sweetly at Yu Heng as if she was embarrassed and even lowered her head.

Not good at math? Who was she kidding? Yi Ke frowned. She remembered that in her previous life, Yi Shi could be said to be a master of mental arithmetic. Her mind was working very quickly.

Yi Ke glanced at Yi Shi and poked Yu Xiang. The little girl understood tacitly. With her first experience of deceiving others, this time was much more natural. She pulled Yu Heng’s arm with a long face. “Brother, I still don’t feel well.”

Yu Heng had no choice but to pull Yu Xiang out again.

Yi Shi could tell that something was wrong. She wanted to say something to Yi Ke, but as soon as she looked into Yi Ke’s eyes, she couldn’t say anything. Yi Ke was like a little princess who had been pampered since she was young. She didn’t feel that there was anything wrong with her even after doing bad things. She looked at Yi Shi arrogantly.

After Yu Heng brought Yu Xiang back, Yi Shi pulled Yang Wan away.

“Did Sister Xiangxiang eat something bad? Let her rest well. The patient can’t be delayed. We won’t disturb her anymore.” Yi Shi packed her things and said goodbye to Yu Heng before leaving.

“Wait.” Yu Heng stopped her and returned to his room to search. He found a third-grade math book for Yi Shi. “This is for my school. My notes are on it. Read it yourself and ask me if you don’t understand.”
