Naturally, all these subtle changes did not escape Tang San's sharp eyes.

His heart suddenly tightened, alarm bells rang, and an ominous premonition arose.

Tang Nian's demeanor at this moment is clearly...

……

Because he hadn't seen Tang San for a long time, Tang Nian finally decided to come out of the second test.

Under Natasha's arrangement, the three of them sat in the restaurant of the castle, with a table full of delicious food in front of them.

To be honest, Tang Nian felt as if he had been isolated from delicious food for a long time, and he was even about to forget what that wonderful taste felt like.

These days, in order to prepare for the second test, she has been guarding the Yellow Springs Road all day and all night, without a moment's rest, day or night.

As for food, there were only the dry rations that Qian Shiye occasionally brought to fill their stomachs. How could they be considered delicious delicacies?

Seeing Tang Nian's greedy look, Tang San on the side couldn't help but hold back his laughter.

With his understanding of his sister, he naturally saw through what Tang Nian was thinking at the moment, so he considerately picked up a fragrant, golden chicken leg and gently placed it in Tang Nian's bowl.

At this moment, Qian Shiye, who was sitting opposite, suddenly paused in his movements, and the chopsticks that were originally holding a plump and tender chicken wing also stopped in mid-air as if under a spell.

After a brief stalemate, Qian Shiye calmly moved the chicken wing slowly to the bowl in front of him.

This subtle scene did not escape Tang San's sharp eyes, he took it all in.

For some reason, he felt something strange in his heart at this moment.

Although he was unwilling to admit it deep down in his heart, he could clearly sense the vague feelings between Tang Nian and Qian Shiye, and it was obvious that they liked each other.

However, if this is the case, why do the two people have such a lukewarm attitude?

There must be some misunderstanding or unresolved issues.

Tang San didn't know Qian Shiye, but he knew his sister Tang Nian well.

In his impression, Tang Nian had rarely gotten angry before, so this situation must be a big deal.

Thinking of this, Tang San couldn't help but ponder inwardly, perhaps this situation was not a good thing for Tang Nian and Qian Shiye, but for him, it was also a rare opportunity.

After all, in his eyes, Qian Shiye was not worthy of his excellent and lovely sister.

Even if God himself came, Tang San would probably think that he was not qualified to have any relationship with Tang Nian.

Tang Nian deserves the best in the world.

After eating and drinking, Tang Nian sat back in a chair contentedly, stroking her slightly bulging belly with her right hand, with a happy smile on her face. She said in a soft voice, "Brother, how did you find this place?"

Tang San glared at Tang Nian unhappily, and said with a hint of complaint in his tone, "How dare you ask me? I went back to Shrek Academy to find Mu Bai and the others to inquire about your whereabouts, but those guys were very tight-lipped. No matter how I asked, they refused to reveal a single word. I had no choice but to go and beg the master again. After much persuasion, the master finally couldn't get away from me and told me your whereabouts."

Hearing Tang San say this, Tang Nian couldn't help but feel embarrassed. She stuck out her tongue mischievously, lowered her head and muttered softly like a child who had done something wrong, "Aiya, brother, we are also worried that you are too tired."

Looking at his sister's cute appearance, Tang San's anger instantly dissipated.

He sighed helplessly. In fact, on the way to find Tang Nian, he had already prepared countless words to scold her in his mind, but when he really saw Tang Nian's face at this moment, those prepared words seemed to be cast under a magic spell and disappeared without a trace in an instant.

In the end, all that came out of Tang San's mouth were four simple words, "This won't happen again."

Tang Nian was as if she had been granted amnesty, and nodded hurriedly, "Don't worry, brother. I will definitely tell you in advance next time!" As she spoke, she stretched out four slender fingers and made a solemn promise to Tang San.

However, at this moment, it was really difficult to tell whether Tang Nian's words were sincere or insincere.

For a moment, the whole scene fell into silence.

After a brief pause, Tang San took a deep breath and then slowly turned his head.

His movements seemed a little hesitant, as if every subtle movement required careful consideration.

Finally, his gaze was cast straight on Qian Shiye who was standing beside him, his eyes were deep and complicated.

Then, Tang San spoke in an extremely gentle voice, "I'm sorry, Nian Nian and I have some personal matters to attend to, so... I hope you can be more understanding of our difficulties as brothers and sisters." The meaning of these words was very clear.

After saying these words, Tang San stared at Qian Shiye quietly, waiting for the other party's reaction.

Hearing Tang San's words, Qian Shiye's body couldn't help but tremble slightly.

A barely perceptible trace of astonishment suddenly flashed across his face, which was originally calm and peaceful.

Then, the heat quickly spread out, like a burning flame, enveloping his entire body.

His bright eyes were like two burning charcoals, fixed on Tang Nian.

That blazing gaze seemed to penetrate deep into Tang Nian's soul, trying to find some answer or response from it.

However, surprisingly, facing Qian Shiye's burning and expectant gaze, Tang Nian behaved unusually coldly.

She seemed to be completely unaware of Qian Shiye's gaze and shifted her gaze away intentionally or unintentionally as if nothing had happened.

Not only that, there was even an expression of indifference on her face, as if everything happening around her had nothing to do with her.

Seeing Tang Nian's reaction, Qian Shiye's clenched fists became even tighter, and the veins on the back of his hands bulged out and were clearly visible.

However, it only took a moment for Qian Shiye to suppress the surging emotions in his heart.

Although he was unwilling, he nodded reluctantly, indicating that he understood and accepted Tang San's request.

Then, he slowly stood up, straightened his slightly wrinkled clothes, turned around silently, and walked away step by step with heavy steps.

When he disappeared, Tang San turned to look at Tang Nian and said, "Tell me, what's going on?"
