AROUND THE SAME TIME
MEI SHEN'S POINT OF VIEW:
After tea, the group drifted toward the far end of the gardens where the koi pond glimmered in the late afternoon light. The Bai brothers walked in a protective half circle around their sister, but the atmosphere was… lighter now. Bai Rong glanced at me as we strolled.
"We were… prepared to disapprove." He admitted quietly, "But seeing her like this…" His gaze shifted to Bai He, laughing with Huan as they leaned over the pond, tossing crumbs to the fish. "It's been a long time since she smiled like that."
Bai Jun grunted in agreement. It seems all princess brothers begun liking Huan and it were trully good news.
"If the boy keeps her happy, I've no problems."He said. "Happiness is rare enough. We should not stand in its way."
