Chapter 81 The Joy of Stealing

The direction Liu Fuying was taken to was the back door around the yard.

She felt relieved a little, Pei Zhouwu finally still had some concerns.

After entering through the side door and walking a short gravel road, there is a bedroom in front of you after pushing open the door. It must be Pei Zhouwu's room.

He was really quick. He came down the mountain this morning, and now...

Thinking of this, she was suddenly shocked again.

The room was tidy and all the furnishings were arranged in a tidy manner, which did not look like something that could have been done in one day. Could it be that he had been planning this for a few days?

It is true that the bamboo house on the hot spring mountain could not be built overnight.

I think when he had people build the bamboo house, he had already started planning things down the mountain. This house must have been cleaned up two days ago waiting for him to move in.

After bringing the person there, Kong Linyu left.

Liu Fuying was left alone in the room, tiptoeing around and not daring to make any noise.

Looking through the screen window, I could vaguely see two people sitting opposite each other in the yard, but I couldn't hear clearly what they were saying.

Kong Linyu went around to the front yard gate, just in time for Pei Zhouwu to see him.

As soon as Pei Zhouwu saw him, he understood that Liu Fuying was already in his house.

"I am still surprised that the prince's uncle moved in here. When the people below came to report it this morning, I thought I had heard it wrong."

Shen Xiunian picked up the teacup and took a sip.

When Zhang Ke said in the morning that someone had moved in next door, he didn't take it seriously at first. But when he heard that the person was Pei Zhouwu, his heart suddenly became agitated and he almost dropped the tablet of Susu that he was holding in his hands.

He immediately wanted to see what was going on, but when he came to his senses, he felt that being too hasty would make him seem deliberate.

It seemed as if he cared a lot about Pei Zhouwu.

After hesitating for a long time and finally arriving here slowly, he couldn't find out why Pei Zhouwu lived here. He only mentioned it indirectly, but Pei Zhouwu didn't take it seriously.

Therefore, he was unable to tell whether Pei Zhouwu came here for Liu Fuying.

"I have just arrived in Yuquan City and am not familiar with it. The place the general found for me is indeed secluded, but it is not a private residence after all. It is inhabited by merchants, so it is still a bit messy."

Pei Zhouwu's words were calm, but Shen Xiunian lowered his eyes and tried his best to hide his guilty conscience.

The place he found for Pei Zhouwu was the farthest from the general's mansion in the city, just to prevent him from running into Liu Fuying.

"The emperor's decree states that I will return in three months. Three months is neither long nor short. I thought I must find a private residence to take good care of myself so as not to delay my return. So I asked someone to find out and sent someone to arrange it. I don't know any street or road in the city, but I didn't expect that when I moved in today, I found out that it was opposite the general's mansion."

Pei Zhouwu looked at Shen Xiunian's lowered eyes with interest.

Shen Xiunian is also a very interesting person.

From what Ah Ying said, it was Chen Xiunian who personally suggested that she go out and find a man and have a bastard child, but now he is beating around the bush and testing the waters. How come he is also interested in Ah Ying?

"Yeah?"

Shen Xiunian put down the teacup and raised his eyes with another tentative look.

"Maybe it's God's will."

Pei Zhouwu's words "God's will" made Shen Xiunian's mouth twitch for no reason. It was still unknown whether it was God's will or human will. Then Pei Zhouwu spoke again and continued what he had not finished.

"My mother sent me a letter saying that I am old enough to get married a long time ago. She will arrange my wedding when I return this time and look forward to having grandchildren."

When talking about holding grandchildren, Shen Xiunian instinctively thought of the two children Xi'an and Xiyun.

He suddenly felt thirsty again and picked up the teacup he had just put down.

Pei Zhouwu's smile widened when he saw this, and after Shen Xiunian put down the cup, he considerately added more tea for him.

"General Shen's family has a pair of twins, a boy and a girl. God arranged me to live opposite the general's mansion by mistake. Maybe he wanted me to get some of your family's good fortune. Who knows, I might get a pair of twins when I go back."

After hearing this, Shen Xiunian unconsciously increased the strength of his grip on the teacup.

Is he overthinking it?

Why do I always feel that Pei Zhouwu is not really talking about waiting for him to return to the capital to get married, have children, and give birth to twins, but that he wants to snatch the twins from the Shen family and take them back.

"General Shen hasn't seen his wife and children for many years. Is his relationship with his wife at home good?"

He suddenly mentioned Liu Fuying, which made Shen Xiunian feel even more nervous.

Why mention Liu Fuying for no reason?

"General Shen is good at deploying troops and fighting battles, so he must have a lot of experience in the ways of husband and wife. I heard that your wife is diligent and careful in managing the household. General Shen must be good enough to her, so she is so hardworking and uncomplaining. That's why I want to learn from General Shen."

Shen Xiunian breathed a sigh of relief quietly.

He loosened his grip on the teacup, cleared his throat and said, "My wife and I are undoubtedly in love."

Oh!

Love without a doubt.

Pei Zhouwu raised his eyebrows, thinking that Chen Xiunian was really good at pretending.

At this moment, a sound suddenly came from the bedroom, which was suspected to be the sound of hitting the table and chairs.

The two of them turned around at the same time.

"Why is there someone else in the prince's room?"

"Yes." Pei Zhouwu lazily pulled the corner of his mouth, and replied with a smile: "I have a greedy cat that is used to stealing fish. General, please sit down for a while. I will go and take a look."

Pei Zhouwu got up and walked towards the bedroom.

He knew that Ah Ying would not be able to resist eavesdropping. She probably thought that he was confronting Shen Xiunian, which must have made her very anxious.

When I pushed the door open, I saw her squatting under the window, holding on to a round stool that had been knocked over.

When their eyes met, Liu Fuying's nervousness seemed to overflow.

Pei Zhouwu walked towards her but did not close the door. He reached out and pulled her up and pressed her on the small table under the window.

"What are you doing?"

Liu Fuying felt like his heart was about to jump out of his chest, and he didn't dare to speak loudly.

"What am I doing? Isn't this what you want?" Pei Zhouwu pushed her against the table, and when she struggled, she knocked the table corners and window panels against each other, making them clang.

"What are you talking about, what I want."

"You've made me your adulterer. Isn't this the kind of pleasure you want from having an affair?"

Pei Zhouwu's eyes were filled with resentment.

The meaning conveyed is also very clear, which means that as long as she doesn't divorce, no one will have a good life.

He had waited and endured for three years, but he couldn't bear it any longer.

"Listen to me, we..."

Pei Zhouwu didn't want to listen to her sweet talk, so he put his lips on hers to block her mouth.

"Um...you..."

Liu Fuying's heart was beating wildly and he was struggling hard.

The table was shaking, and the long vase on the table was also swinging with the table. No one was there to hold it up, so it naturally couldn't hold on and fell to the ground after a few rounds.

Liu Fuying's eyes widened with fright.

But Pei Zhouwu's expression remained the same, and the kiss was still deep.

Shen Xiunian, who was in the yard, heard the noise and turned around again. Pei Zhouwu was nowhere to be seen in the wide-open door. After thinking for a while, he asked.

"Does the prince need my help?"
