Although Zhang Xiaoyu's suggestion was good, Jing Zhe did not agree immediately. Instead, he asked, "Xiaoyu, are you coming to Jiangling with me?"

Zhang Xiaoyu laughed after hearing that.

“My lord, of course I can’t go with you! Although the affairs of the newspaper can be handled by Editor-in-Chief Chen, Wenxiangju and Zhangjia Winery can’t do without me! If I go to Jiangling with you, how will we open these branches?”

"So you're planning to let me go by myself?"

After saying that, Jing Zhe said with great dissatisfaction, "Xiao Yu, you can't just kick me out because Fourth Sister is angry, can you? And if I leave now, won't you be in an even more difficult position?"

So, Jing Zhe began to analyze the situation for Zhang Xiaoyu.

"My fourth sister already had a bad first impression of Xiaoyu, mainly because Xiaoyu came to Kunlun County with me, which made her mistakenly believe that you deprived her of the time she could spend alone with me."

“I’ve only been here for a day and I went straight to Jiangling. Doesn’t that mean I’ll have even less time to spend with Fourth Sister? Isn’t that just adding fuel to the fire? Fourth Sister is going to explode!”

"Besides, you two haven't even sorted out your relationship yet. Once I leave, she'll definitely take her anger out on you, and your relationship will get even worse. What will you do then?"

"..."

Jing Zhe talked on and on, and his points were not without merit.

However, Zhang Xiaoyu kept a smile on her lips the whole time, without showing any sign of worry, which made people curious.

After he finished speaking, Zhang Xiaoyu smiled and said, "Who said you were letting your husband go to Jiangling by himself?"

"Didn't you say you wouldn't come to Jiangling with me—"

He was stunned for a moment after saying half of what he had said, because Zhang Xiaoyu had only denied that she had gone to Jiangling with him, but now she asked another question, and the implication was very clear.

"Does Xiaoyu mean that Fourth Sister should come with me?"

"My husband is wise!"

Zhang Xiaoyu clapped her hands and laughed. This "clever" made Jing Zhe blush. Then she continued, "As I said before, there's nothing for my husband to do in Kunlun County. On the contrary, because I'm here, I'm afraid Fourth Sister won't be happy. So why don't you let Fourth Sister accompany my husband to Jiangling!"

"..."

Jing Zhe was taken aback, because he had never had this idea before, but after Zhang Xiaoyu mentioned it, he thought it was a good idea.

But he couldn't show his elation, as that would make Zhang Xiaoyu feel disappointed. So, suppressing his emotions, he frowned and asked, "Is this appropriate, Xiaoyu?"

"Suitable? Why wouldn't it be suitable?"

Zhang Xiaoyu smiled and said, "When we were in Kunlun Mirror, Sect Leader Pei said that my husband should take Fourth Sister with him this time, so it's perfect! Besides, it will take at least four or five days to travel from Kunlun County to Jiangling by carriage. It will just be my husband and Fourth Sister on the way, so Fourth Sister will definitely like it!"

"..."

Speaking of their carriage trip, Jing Zhe recalled that when he left Jinxi at the beginning of the year, he spent a few days alone with Pei Yunxi in the carriage, winning her heart.

However, that trip was too short. Although he saw Pei Yunxi completely naked, there was no real progress. If they were to take another carriage trip, Jing Zhe would probably start to think about the carriage's shock resistance.

"What do you think, my husband?"

Seeing Jing Zhe deep in thought, Zhang Xiaoyu snuggled up to him and asked.

"I think... it's alright, but I just feel bad leaving Xiaoyu here alone."

Jing Zhe took Zhang Xiaoyu's hand and said in a deep voice.

Upon hearing this, Zhang Xiaoyu was deeply moved. She also grasped Jing Zhe's large hand tightly and said, "Husband, since we left Jingzhou, only Xiaoyu has accompanied you all the way. For such a long time, even my second sister and the others have not received this treatment. Xiaoyu is overjoyed and very satisfied."

Then he laughed and said, "Especially after we left Ruzhou, we were in the carriage every day. Not only did my husband keep playing tricks, but he was also so cunning. Xiaoyu was still in the middle of the month, and she was so scared when she saw my husband at night that her legs went weak! So it would be good for my husband to leave Xiaoyu for a while so that she can rest and recuperate."

"..."

Every man dreams of hearing something suggestive from the mouth of a gentle and virtuous woman. Of course, this can only happen between two people, which gives men an indescribable thrill.

Jing Zhe was no exception, and at this moment Zhang Xiaoyu made Jing Zhe experience this feeling.

"Xiaoyu, is that really what you think?"

"Yes, my husband!"

Zhang Xiaoyu nestled against Jing Zhe's chest and whispered, "Actually, what Xiaoyu is most worried about is that the older sisters won't like me. After all, compared to them, Xiaoyu is so insignificant..."

"My lord, please listen to me first."

Seeing Jing Zhe about to speak, Zhang Xiaoyu covered his mouth with her hand and continued, "My second and sixth sisters both like me, which has made me more confident. I never expected to react like this the first time I met my fourth sister. I feel extremely humbled. If my fourth sister can go to Jiangling with my husband and dispel her prejudice against me, then it will all be worth it!"

"And it won't be long before Xiaoyu continues south to meet her husband in Jiangling, and then they'll return to Jingzhou together. With her husband by her side for such a long time, Xiaoyu has nothing to be dissatisfied with!"

Seeing Zhang Xiaoyu's serious expression, Jing Zhe nodded.

"Xiaoyu, then I'll listen to you. Tomorrow I'll go to Kunlun Mirror and tell Fourth Sister. I believe Fourth Sister isn't angry with you, so don't worry or blame her."

Zhang Xiaoyu smiled and said, "How could Xiaoyu dare to blame Fourth Sister? Besides, women understand women best. As a woman, I understand Fourth Sister's feelings best. Although I'm a little worried too, I know that the person who is suffering the most is Fourth Sister. She must be tossing and turning in bed right now, unable to sleep..."

At this point, Zhang Xiaoyu glanced at Jing Zhe secretly, smiled to herself, and did not say anything like "Fourth Sister now wishes she could kill her husband".

"Is Xiaoyu feeling sorry for Fourth Sister?"

Zhang Xiaoyu thought for a moment and said, "Forget it, if she can't sleep, she can't sleep. Anyway, she probably won't be able to sleep at night for the next few days."

After saying that, he couldn't help but laugh.

Jing Zhe also teased her, saying, "Xiao Yu is right. In a few nights when Fourth Sister can't sleep, I will definitely pass on Xiao Yu's words to her!"

"Please don't!"

Zhang Xiaoyu was so frightened that she quickly waved her hands.

"You can make me not say it..."

Jing Zhe chuckled, then picked up Zhang Xiaoyu in a princess carry and went straight to the bedside. Zhang Xiaoyu knew exactly what was about to happen and clung to Jing Zhe's neck tightly.

"Husband, no! What Xiaoyu just said was true; my legs are weak now!"

"Don't worry, I have a family heirloom skill. I'll give you a good time tonight!"

"..."
