Liu Tián Qǔ felt like going for a walk, so she declined Little Dumplings offer of a carriage to drop her to her front gate. As Liu Tián Qǔ strolled the short distance to her front gate. Liu Tián Qǔ thought on her house carriage, which should be ready by now. Liu Tián Qǔ made a mental note to ask Housekeeper Gao about it.

Liu Tián Qǔ had designed and drawn out a plan that consisted of several sketches of a carriage she wanted custom made. She had gave the drawings to her Housekeeper to take care of. Liu Tián Qǔ couldn't wait to see the finished product and to test drive the carriage.

Liu Tián Qǔ lifted her head to the sky as she walked. The warmth of the sun on her skin felt so good. She deeply breathed in the unpolluted clean, fresh air, and the scent of late spring that borderline summer that was in the air.

The simplicity of strolling under the warm sun, breathing unpolluted clean, fresh air, highlighted the happiness that Liu Tián Qǔ felt in being alive and well.

Liu Tián Qǔ's thoughts once again turned toward Wang Fèn Yong and the strange reaction she had toward him when he stared at her with that odd look in his beautiful eyes.

Liu Tián Qǔ felt confused. There was only one time she reacted to a person like that. It was when she first met her ex-boyfriend in her previous life. 'It can't be that I am attracted to Wang Fèn Yong, can it?'

Liu Tián Qǔ felt as if she got struck by a massive thunderbolt from a clear blue sky. Liu Tián Qǔ felt her brains scramble. Her feet seemed to get tangled up, and she stumbled over her own feet and almost fell flat on her face. Liu Tián Qǔ barely managed to catch her balance.

The thought that she might be attracted to Wang Fèn Yong rocked Liu Tián Qǔ's mind. Heat washed over Liu Tián Qǔ's body, and she felt her face flush blood red. Her knees and legs grew weak. Her heart started pounding, and Liu Tián Qǔ felt like she just ran a marathon. Although Liu Tián Qǔ was only several feet from her front gate, she felt incapable of walking that far.

Liu Tián Qǔ staggered to the side of the road and collapsed on the ground. Her head was spinning. She needed no one to tell her that her face was blood red from blushing. Using her hands, Liu Tián Qǔ felt her cheeks. Her cheeks felt hot.

Liu Tián Qǔ felt so embarrassed she wanted to cry. In her past life, although she barely looked twenty-two at the time of her death. In fact, she was already thirty-six, although no one would believe her until she showed her Identification card. She was blessed or in some cases, cursed with a babyface.

Although Liu Tián Qǔ reincarnated into the body of a thirteen years old girl, she felt more like she was still a thirty-six years old woman. I'm old enough to be Wang Fèn Yong's mother!!! Blood nearly dripped from Liu Tián Qǔ face as she sat on the side of the road shaking in shock and blushing in deep embarrassment.

In the 21st century, where she was from many men dated younger women, and many women also dated more youthful men. However, that didn't stop Liu Tián Qǔ from feeling like a toad lusting after swans flesh. Liu didn't have much experience with dating.

Liu Tián Qǔ had only ever dated one person. It was, later on, Liu Tián Qǔ realized her ex-boyfriend never loved her and only used her. After she allowed her ex-boyfriend to eat her, he began mistreating her. That was the last time she ever gave her body or heart away.

Liu Tián Qǔ never wanted to experience that feeling again. In her previous life, she decided to remain single and never dated again. She kept her distance from all men who seemed to be attracted or interested in her. Liu Tián Qǔ had used her energy to help her divorced sister in raising her son. Liu Tián Qǔ's nephew Little Taro became the center of her world.

Liu Tián Qǔ sat on the side of the road reviewing her interactions with Wang Fèn Yong. Liu Tián Qǔ thought about how she felt and reacted towards Wang Fèn Yong in each interaction she had with him. As she sat on the side of the road, a short distance from her front gate think. She happened to glance over towards her front gate. Loitering near the front entrance to her residence was a young boy. The young boy couldn't be more than ten or eleven years old.

The young boy was frighteningly gaunt and looked extremely malnutrition. Although his clothes were cleaned, they were worn. His clothing was made of plain cotton. The young boy's clothing hung on his extremely gaunt frame, making him look impossibly skinny. His eyes were glued to the front gate of the Liu's Residence.

What caught Liu Tián Qǔ's attention was his demeanor. He was dressed as a poor commoner, but there was pride in his bearings. A curious Liu Tián Qǔ sat on the side of the road, watching the young boy watch her front gate. Liu Tián Qǔ was trying to understand what was it about the young boy that attracted her attention.

Liu Tián Qǔ observed an air about the young boy. However, she was too far away to make a determination. She had to get closer. Liu Tián Qǔ thought that if she approached the boy, he would run away. So instead, she had to bring him to her. With that thought, Liu Tián Qǔ made a sound loud enough to attract the young boys' attention and pretended to collapse.

She decided that if the young boy were the kind of person to help someone he saw in need, then she would help him. But if he were the kind of person to ignore someone who needed help, she would make sure to chase him away.

Liu Tián Qǔ made sure to collapse on her side, facing the direction of the young boy so she could observe him. Liu Tián Qǔ sneakily watched the young boy from under her eyelashes. She saw when the young boy's head swung over in her direction. At first, it looked like the young boy was going to ignore her. The young boy looked over in her direction. Pretending he didn't see her, the young boy looked away.

The young boy began grumbling under his breath as he once again looked in Liu Tián Qǔ direction. However, he was too far away for Liu Tián Qǔ to hear what he was saying. The young boy shook his head and looked away. The young boy had an extremely sour look on his face as if the whole universe was plotting against him.

The young boy looked around to see if there was anyone else who could go help the young noble youth who decided to collapse on the road. The young boy released releasing a deep breath of glum. There was no one else around to help but him.

The dejected-looking young boy began to trudge over to the collapsed Liu Tián Qǔ grumbling all the way.

As the young boy had approached Liu Tián Qǔ, she was finally able to hear what he was grumbling about. The young boy sounded so disgruntledly, glum and pessimistic that Liu Tián Qǔ almost burst out laughing in amusement at the young boy. She fought to contain her amusement because she didn't want to blow her cover yet.

"He better not be drunk," the young boy grumbled as he approached Liu Tián Qǔ. "I swear if he collapsed because he is drunk, I'm going to kick him. I do not why I always involve myself in other people's matters. I haven't even solved the first problem, and here is another. With my luck, I will probably get accused of a crime while trying to help this Young Lord, who is probably drunk. I should continue acting like I didn't see him," the young boy grumbled pessimistically as he approached Liu Tián Qǔ and knelt on the ground next to her to see if she was okay.

Liu Tián Qǔ felt the young boy placed a hand on her shoulder. The young boy gently shook her "Hey. Hey, wake up. Hey, wake up, are you okay? You can't stay here, wake up." The young boy called to her.

The young boy leaned down and sniffed at her, "Huh? I don't smell alcohol. Could it be he really is hurt?"

With a bit more concern in his voice, the young boy gently shook Liu Tián Qǔ some more while calling to her to wake up. He also gently patted Liu Tián Qǔ cheek with his hand trying to 'revive' her. Pretending to slowly come to herself, Liu Tián Qǔ slowly opened her eyes and looked up at the young boy who knelt over her, trying to 'revive' her.

When the young boy saw that Liu Tián Qǔ was coming to herself, the young boy asked, "Are you okay? You collapsed. You have to get up. You can't stay here. Where do you live?"

Liu Tián Qǔ looked up to see the concern written on the young boy's face. Now that the young boy was closer to her, she was able to discern the strong determination and will power in his eyes. There was more to this young boy than meet the eyes. Maybe the young boy was in disguise just like Liu Tián Qǔ was.

Liu Tián Qǔ's curiosity completely bit her. Liu Tián Qǔ was determined to find out what was it this young boy was so determined to accomplish that he was using willpower of steel just to keep going.

Feigning illness Liu Tián Qǔ clutched her head as if something was wrong with her, "Help me home. I will reward you. If there is anything you need help with, I will help you. You have my word."

"Help you home? How do you propose I do that? You're bigger than me," the you boy said grumpily. "If you break me while I'm trying to help you, then your reward won't be much use to me now, would it?" the young boy said pessimistically with a sour face.

Liu Tián Qǔ fought to control her amusement. It's been such a long time since she met someone who was such a wet blanket. The young boy's cute sour face was twisted in such a glum defeatist expression. It really tickled Liu Tián Qǔ.

"You don't have to carry me, assist me in walking. My legs feel weak, and I feel very dizzy." Liu Tián Qǔ lied, trying to rope the young boy into helping her.

"You're so young, why are you collapsing all over the place? If you're sick stay home, why are you running about sick inconveniencing other people?" The young boy grouchily scold Liu Tián Qǔ.

"Aiya, don't be such a sourpuss. Are you going to help me or not. You are so young, why are you so grumpy?" Liu Tián Qǔ retaliated.

"Where do you live?" The young boy asked in a put out grumpy manner.

"Over there." Liu Tián Qǔ said, pointing towards her front gate.

The young boy had begun to help Liu Tián Qǔ off the ground. He was supporting Liu Tián Qǔ as Liu Tián Qǔ pretended to have difficulties in sitting up. When Liu Tián Qǔ identified herself, the young boy jerked in shock. The young boy was so shocked he almost released his hands that was supporting Liu Tián Qǔ, which would have caused her to drop on the ground.

Liu Tián Qǔ hid a smirk as the young grumpy pessimistic boy gawked in shock. "You're the Young Lord who just bought the Chen's old manor?"

Liu Tián Qǔ looked up at the boy who was frozen in shock and nodded she head as she hummed, "Um."

"Help me home, and I will help you with anything you need." Liu Tián Qǔ keeping her amusement hidden.

"Okay," The young boy said. "I'll help you, but make sure you keep your part of the deal." The young boy began to help Liu Tián Qǔ off the ground. Liu Tián Qǔ made sure to use as much of her own power as she could without giving herself away.

Liu Tián Qǔ pretended to stagger to her feet. The young boy wrapped an arm around Liu Tián Qǔ's waist. He then wrapped Liu Tián Qǔ's arm around his neck and allowed Liu Tián Qǔ to used his body to prop her weight up. However, Liu Tián Qǔ was very careful not to rest too much of her weight onto the young boy. The body of the young boy looked so skinny and frail. She was afraid the young boy would collapse under her weight.

With the change in Liu Tián Qǔ's diet, the strengthening potions she drank daily, and the rigorous training she did every morning. Liu Tián Qǔ not only gained weight. She also has been gaining muscle mass. There was a vast difference in her body compared to how it was when she first reincarnated.
