"The Young Master is the cream of the crop among the young masters out there. There’s no love triangle. No one can compete with him," Grandma Pei dismissed Maid Yan’s imaginative thoughts, but she entertained the first possibility.
Grandma Pei reminisced about the little girl she had seen back in the village. Despite being thin and slightly sun-kissed, the girl had bright eyes and attractive features.
Grandma Pei smiled. "But you might be onto sothing. Sothing related to that little girl must have happened. Perhaps the Young Master has fallen in love."
This revelation could explain his abrupt transformation and peculiar behavior.
The three nodded in agreent. Being the closest to Fei Chuan, they could discern the changes in him right away.
Maid Yan’s eyes brightened. "Should we help the Young Master? It’s like he’s taking his first steps in love."
Driver Wang clenched his fist. "I might not look like it, but I was quite popular with the girls when I was young. I’ll help the Young Master."
Grandma Pei chid in, "It’s rare for the Young Master to show interest in soone. He’s proud, and his tongue can be sharp. There’s no way he’d make the first move. And if he did, it might go awry."
It was evident that Grandma Pei understood Fei Chuan quite well.
"We must help him, but discreetly."
The three unanimously agreed.

Upstairs, Fei Chuan remained unaware of the thoughts swirling downstairs. He dove into his bed and buried his entire face under a pillow.
His rapidly beating heart took a long while to calm down. The scene played in his mind repeatedly—the forceful pull that compelled him to lean down, the quick and soft kiss...
Fei Chuan abruptly sat up, yanking off his necktie with a harsh motion. He tossed his suit onto the bed and headed to the bathroom. After a while, the sound of water from the shower filled the room.
Throughout the night, Fei Chuan’s heart and mind refused to settle. Despite taking a cold shower and letting in the chilly wind through the balcony window, the heat that had stirred his heart and body lingered until dawn.
Only Fei Chuan comprehended the tumultuous process his mind and heart had undergone throughout the night.
For the first ti in his life, Fei Chuan discovered his second weakness.
