Chapter 141 Are You Jealous?

"Are you done with your work?"

Too lazy to talk about those irrelevant people, Shen Xiangwan reached out and held his fingers tightly.

"Um."

Nodding, Wei Chengyi took her by the hand and said, "It's news from the East Territory."

From grandfather to father and brother, the Wei Yang Palace has been guarding the East Border for generations since the founding of the country. Even though the Jin State was known for its million cavalry and was invincible all around, it had never set foot into the city of the East Border. Now that they are gone, the Jin State is beginning to stir again. The people sent by the Emperor to take over the military power are arrogant but lack prestige, and are unable to convince the East Border Army, and it is still a mess until now.

The State of Jin seized their loopholes and launched several small-scale wars in succession, almost all of which resulted in the defeat of the State of Tianqi. Currently, the morale of the Eastern Border Army is low. If the State of Jin launches a large-scale attack, they may not be able to hold on.

Once the Jin State opens a gap, their army will march straight in, and the eastern border will be devastated.

This was the case in the previous life. After the Jin army broke through the city, they almost wiped out the entire border city. If it weren't for the strong rise of Chu Liang, the Tianqi Dynasty would have changed hands long ago.

"Eastern Territory?"

Turning his head to look at him, Shen Xiangwan frowned and asked, "Did your people find Chu Liang?"

In the original novel, Chu Liang is the general who emerges from nowhere and takes over Wei Yang Palace to guard the eastern border. He is also the biggest villain.

"Found him. Do you want to meet him?"

Pausing for a moment, Wei Chengyi turned around and faced her. In his previous life, Chu Liang offended Shen Xiangyue, who was already the Crown Princess, for her. He was suppressed by the Crown Prince and the Prime Minister's Office, and with the help of the dog emperor from time to time, he was almost tortured to death by those people. After escaping, he directly led the Jin army into the pass, causing chaos and devastation in the Tianqi Dynasty.

As for what happened next, he had no idea because he was reborn, but he thought that the Dog Emperor and his people would not have a good ending.

The reason why Chu Liang did that was ultimately for her. Wanwan had reached a cooperation with him on the condition of protecting Chu Liang. He wanted to know what position Chu Liang occupied in her mind.

"No, he has his mission. If he asks, you just need to let someone tell him that I'm fine."

Shaking her head in response to his gaze, Shen Xiangwan said with a smile that Chu Liang could be said to be the original owner's only concern in this world. As the continuation of the original owner's life, she was willing to protect him to the best of her ability.

"that's all?"

As if unwilling to believe what he heard, Wei Chengyi asked again, his deep eyes fixed on her.

"Um?"

Sensitively aware of his strangeness, Shen Xiangwan suddenly leaned closer: “I say, are you jealous?”

“···”

Hearing this, Wei Chengyi didn't show it on his face, but he felt helpless in his heart. How could he not be jealous? In his previous life, Chu Liang did that for her, and she did it at the beginning... He was more than jealous, he was almost soaked in a vinegar jar.

"Hahaha···"

Are you really jealous?

Shen Xiangwan couldn't help but laugh and fell on him. She really didn't expect that he would be so jealous. She and Chu Liang? How is it possible?

"Wanwan."

It was obvious that he must have misunderstood. Wei Chengyi couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed. He couldn't blame him. Who told her not to care about anyone at the beginning and just wanted to save Chu Liang? Plus everything Chu Liang did for her in her previous life, how could he not think too much?

“Ahem…”

Chen Xiangwan coughed twice to suppress her laughter. She ignored the many people around her who were watching her. She leaned over and tiptoed to peck him on the lips. "Okay, you can't blame me for this. Who told you to be jealous? Do you remember what I said in your room before? Only you, Wei Chengyi, can fascinate me. Others are just friends, enemies, and strangers to me."

The closer she talked, the more serious Shen Xiangwan's expression became. She knew that the reason he was jealous was because she did not give him enough sense of security. This would not happen again in the future. Although some of her words were indeed quite corny, she would make it clear to him when the time came and would not let him worry about gains and losses.

"Um."

Although it was not the first time that she had said so bluntly that she was fascinated by him, Wei Chengyi still couldn't help but feel a burning sensation in his heart, and a slight blush appeared at his ears.

"Oh my, this couple has such a good relationship, it's really embarrassing."

In the distance, the women who saw Shen Xiangwan take the initiative to kiss Wei Chengyi all had aunt smiles on their faces. Aunt Wang let out an exaggerated cry and pulled Zhao Yuping to say teasingly.

"you do not say."

There's really nothing we can do about them. Why don't they avoid others when they're being intimate?

Zhao Yuping didn't expect that her beloved daughter-in-law would be so bold, but seeing that they had such a good relationship, she felt relieved.

Everyone's attention was focused on the couple showing off their affection. No one paid attention to Jiang and Shen Xiangyue who was still curled up on the ground wailing. The farce they created was destined to become a topic of conversation among the villagers after dinner.

"Wanwan, son-in-law."

Even though she was kicked by Shen Xiangwan and her mouth was broken, Jiang was still unwilling to give up, and walked towards them with the support of Xie Yunyun.

Shen Xiangwan frowned barely noticeably, and looked past them at the villagers not far away. A thought flashed through her mind, and then she took Wei Chengyi and went forward, without any intention of avoiding him, but...

"Wanwan...ah..."

Jiang was delighted and hurried forward excitedly, but Shen Xiangwan grabbed her neck and lifted her up abruptly: “Jiang, I think you really want to die!”

“Um… no…”

The fear she once had surged up, Jiang kicked her legs and tried to pry her hands away, tears instantly rolled down her eyes, she was scared, she was really scared, she never dreamed that even in public, Shen Xiangwan actually looked like he was going to strangle her to death.

"roll!"

Seeing that her tears and snot were about to flow onto her hands, Shen Xiangwan looked disgusted and threw her out.

"bump···"

"ah!"

Jiang's skinny body slammed hard to the ground, followed by a sharp scream. Everyone who saw this scene couldn't help but gasp. Although they all despised what Jiang had done, Shen Xiangwan's methods seemed to be no less powerful. After this battle, her fierceness was likely to spread throughout the village.

No one knew that Shen Xiangwan did it on purpose. She was using the lesson of teaching Jiang a lesson to intimidate the villagers of Yong'an Village, telling them almost bluntly that they were willing to actively integrate into the village, but this did not mean that they were afraid of the people in the village. Anyone who thought that they were kind and could be bullied should first consider how much they weighed and whether they were enough to fill their teeth.

This move was very useful. The villagers who originally thought that they could take advantage of them by trying hard to please them quietly stopped thinking about it and became more cautious when interacting with them. Of course, this cautiousness was not fear, but a constant reminder to themselves not to think of them as easy to bully. This allowed them to successfully integrate into the village and establish a certain leadership position.

Of course, that’s all in the past.
