Chapter 49: Is Zhou Xu aloof and abstinent? Is Zhou Xu abiding by the rules?

Today, Zhou Xu was punished to kneel in the ancestral hall because he told his grandmother about Jiang An. Ruoyu felt a little guilty.

I sneaked to the ancestral hall in the dark of night.

Because it was the eldest young master who entered the ancestral hall this time, the servants knew that he was the most respectful of etiquette and would be willing to accept punishment and stay in the hall all night. Therefore, there was no special guard at the door of the ancestral hall.

If the second young master were to kneel in the ancestral hall, it would probably take a dozen bodyguards to take turns on duty to watch over him.

There was no one guarding the entrance to the ancestral hall, and Ruoyu pushed the door open easily.

Hearing the noise coming from the door, Zhou Xu looked sideways.

When his wife's slender figure came into view, Zhou Xu smiled faintly.

He didn't stand up from the mat, but waved to Ruoyu to come over to him.

Ruoyu was very well-behaved and obedient, and walked to Zhou Xu's side in small steps.

She moved the other side of the cushion closer to where Zhou Xu was being punished to kneel, and followed Zhou Xu's example by kneeling alongside him.

The atmosphere fell into silence, and for a moment, I didn't know what to say. After all, it was me who caused Zhou Xu to kneel in the ancestral hall.

I have been married to him for more than five years, and the thing I hear most often is "The second son should go to the ancestral hall and kneel down." I have never seen him being punished.

Seeing Zhou Xu kneeling as punishment was a rare sight these days. But since it concerned me anyway, I might as well kneel alongside him.

Seeing his wife kneeling on the mat with him, Zhou Xu frowned slightly, put his arms around Ruoyu's slender waist, and prevented her from kneeling.

"You're right, you don't need to kneel."

Ruoyu was forced into Zhou Xu's arms. She pursed her lips and pushed Zhou Xu away.

Thinking that they were still in the ancestral hall, a place with strict rules and regulations, it would not be good for the two of them to be too intimate.

Zhou Xu was pushed away by Ruoyu, and did not make any further moves. His tone was gentle: "I should have punished Jiang An a long time ago. Don't feel burdened."

Ruoyu's cheeks turned slightly red, but Zhou Xu guessed all the concerns in her heart.

She nodded slightly: "Yeah."

Zhou Xu looked at his wife's cheeks with a slightly pink complexion and her Adam's apple bulging slightly. He couldn't help but stretch out his long arms and hold her in his arms again.

Ruoyu glanced at the tablet in front of her and whispered, "No... This is the ancestral hall. It's inappropriate for us to be so intimate."

Zhou Xu: "It's okay, our ancestors wouldn't be so petty."

Ruoyu:……

You don’t care, your ancestors don’t care, but I do!

Ruoyu wanted to resist, but every time she moved, Zhou Xu's restraints on her became more forceful, and this happened several times in a row. Zhou Xu was determined to hug her in front of everyone.

Unable to defeat Zhou Xu, Ruoyu had no choice but to give up resistance and let Zhou Xu hug her.

When his wife stopped resisting him, Zhou Xu finally started talking, asking in a low voice, "Why did you think of talking to Grandma about this today?"

This question made Ruoyu's heart skip a beat. She looked away and scratched her face uncomfortably: "Just, it suddenly occurred to me..."

Zhou Xu's eyes gradually darkened, and the corners of his lips curled up.

His wife is really not good at lying.

"Hmm?" Zhou Xu leaned forward slightly, his lips gently brushing against Ruoyu's. "Are you sure you don't want to tell me the truth?"

Ruoyu felt the softness on her lips, and her cheeks turned even redder. "I, I didn't lie..."

Her voice was getting weaker and weaker, and it was obvious that she was feeling guilty. It was hard for anyone not to catch her by the tail.

"Ayu, are you sure you want to hide this from me?" Zhou Xu's eyes were filled with lust.

The low, magnetic sound rubbed Ruoyu's ears like sandpaper, making her feel itchy all over.

Zhou Xu's fingertips caressed her rosy lips back and forth. Ruoyu's heart beat fast, fearing that Zhou Xu would do something outrageous here in the next second.

Zhou Xu will do it.

This person appears to be cold and aloof, and sticks to the rules, but in fact he often does things that go against his appearance.

When I first got married to Zhou Xu, I hadn't quit my job yet. Zhou Xu was also busy at work, so I was always picked up and dropped off by a driver on time.

Once it rained heavily and the driver said that water had entered the chassis of the car and it might be late to arrive.

Ruoyu felt embarrassed to trouble others, so she asked the driver not to come and she would wait until the rain subsided before going back.

An hour later, the rain still didn't stop. Ruoyu couldn't wait any longer and decided to take a taxi back.

Just when she was waiting for a car on the side of the road with an umbrella, a big G stopped in front of her. It was Zhou Xu who came to take her home.

This was Ruoyu's first time riding in Zhou Xu's car. No one spoke along the way, and the classical music coming from the speakers made the atmosphere less awkward.

When the car reached a road near the old house, Zhou Xu suddenly stopped the car.

Ruoyu blinked and asked curiously, "What's wrong?"

Zhou Xu said calmly: "I just received a notice that the road ahead is flooded."

"Then, return the same way?"

“The road behind was also flooded.”

Ruoyu was a little flustered: "Then, what should we do?"

Zhou Xu looked at Ruoyu gravely: "Wait until the water level drops."

Ruoyu looked at the heavy rain outside and sighed in her heart, wondering how unlucky she was.

Do you want to stay with Zhou Xu in the not-so-spacious car for the entire night?!

Ruoyu was nervous and helpless, but Zhou Xu didn't seem to be affected by the rainstorm.

Zhou Xu would find topics to chat with Ruoyu, and as they talked, his hands would start to move in a naughty way.

Fortunately, the Zhou family's territory extended for hundreds of miles, and no one dared to trespass. Their parking area was also secluded and quiet, so no one would see them. Furthermore, the heavy rain perfectly masked the gentle breathing inside.

After the event ended in the early morning, Zhou Xu said the water level had dropped and they could leave, so they returned to the manor to catch up on some sleep.

During lunch, my grandma asked me worriedly why I didn’t come back the whole night.

Ruoyu was puzzled: "Yesterday Zhou Xu said that the manor was flooded and couldn't get in."

Grandma's mouth twitched: "How is that possible? Everything in the manor is fine. This grandson must be lying to you!"

Ruoyu finally realized that Zhou Xu had tricked her into taking the car—? !

There were many other things like this, in different positions and locations, Zhou Xu had fooled himself into doing them. Zhou Xu was sure that his brain was not as smart as his, so he always fooled himself.

I can only suffer in silence every time.

Zhou Xu has a bad heart, so she has to be careful.

Thinking about this, Ruoyu reached out and covered Zhou Xu's lips, not allowing him to act recklessly. "This is the ancestral hall, can you please be more respectful?"

Ruoyu reminded Zhou Xu again in a serious tone.

Zhou Xu took her hand and kissed her face openly: "Tell me what you have been hiding from me first."

"Otherwise..." Zhou Xu paused halfway through his words and looked Ruoyu up and down meaningfully.

It's like looking at a delicious prey that is both beautiful and appetizing.

Through the gold-rimmed lenses, Zhou Xu's eyes were filled with hunger and deep desire, staring at Ruoyu so hard that her body trembled uncontrollably.

Ruoyu:……
