Chapter 6

"Host, you're being way too nice to the male lead. It doesn't fit his character."

666 watched Rong Rong and Du Shaofeng interact the whole time and felt a little jealous.

The host hasn't kissed or pinched it yet!

At this point, 666 had already interpreted the bite as affection, and had completely forgotten how happy he had been when Rong Rong bit Du Shaofeng.

"Are you alright?" Rong Rong asked uncertainly.

For Rong Rong, who had never left her home or met outsiders, being with the mentally challenged Du Shaofeng made her feel more relaxed and at ease.

"It should be fine, no points have been deducted yet."

"Although it's not being deducted now, the host still needs to be careful. The original owner disliked the mentally challenged male lead, so the host shouldn't get too close to him to avoid ruining the character's persona!"

Despite 666's efforts to persuade her, Rong Rong's attitude towards the mentally challenged male lead was actually quite insignificant in a secluded corner.

But it just can't stand it, and it will never admit that it's jealous of the male lead.

Sigh, wait a minute... jealousy?

How could it possibly feel jealous?

666 was shocked and, without saying anything more, dashed into the small dark room with its short legs and started scanning for viruses again.

Rong Rong nodded to herself, "Then I'll be careful."

After the two finished washing up, Rong Rong and Du Shaofeng went to the main courtyard to pay their respects to Du's parents.

As soon as the two stepped into the courtyard, Du Shaoqun, who had been waiting there, quickly came to greet them, "Rong Rong!"

Du Shaofeng quickly hugged Rong Rong tightly, looking at Du Shaoqun warily.

Du Shaoqun was still wearing yesterday's clothes, looking haggard and disheveled. Where was the spirited young man he used to be?

He was forced to kneel in the ancestral hall all night as punishment last night.

“Rongrong, come with me. I know you don’t want to marry my older brother.”

Du Shaoqun's face was full of pleading. He knew that if he didn't do something, he would never have another chance to get close to Rong Rong.

"I won't believe a liar's words." Rong Rong shook her head and stepped back, distancing herself from Du Shaoqun.

"No! My wife can't leave!" Du Shaofeng stepped between the two. "I've consummated my marriage with my wife, she can only be mine!"

"What did you say?" Du Shaoqun's eyes were bloodshot as he grabbed Du Shaofeng by the collar and pulled him in front of him, his teeth clenched and his eyes bloodshot, looking like he wanted to devour someone.

"Devil! Third Brother is a devil!" Du Shaofeng shouted, flailing his arms wildly and slapping Du Shaoqun several times across the face.

Du Shaoqun became even more agitated and was about to throw a punch at Du Shaofeng when a clear, cold voice suddenly rang out.

"Third brother!"

Before they knew it, Du Shaoling had arrived beside the three of them. The strong warning in his words made Du Shaoqun stiffen and he had no choice but to stop.

In this family, Du Shaoqun fears Du Shaoling more than his father.

Beneath Du Shaoling's refined appearance lies an unfathomable inner world.

When he's a good older brother, he gives you a great sense of security; when he's an opponent or enemy, he becomes someone to be feared.

Du Shaoling glanced quickly at Rong Rong, then fixed his gaze on Du Shaofeng's face, his eyes gradually darkening.

There was a row of neat teeth marks that were very conspicuous.

Du Shaoqun pursed his lips, thinking that his good brother didn't care, but in reality, he probably wanted to beat his older brother up.

"Brother, sister-in-law, come inside."

Du Shaoling smiled and walked into the main house first, followed closely by Rong Rong and Du Shaofeng, while Du Shaoqun hurriedly followed with a dark face.

Inside the room, only Du's mother sat at the head of the table, waiting.

Du's mother looked at Rong Rong as she entered with a complicated expression.

The question of what would become of the Rong family daughter, which was her biggest headache, had already been easily resolved by her second son.

She didn't even want Du's father to see this daughter-in-law, and Du Shaoling successfully got rid of him.

Her Shaoling has grown into such an outstanding young man, but what frightens her even more is that Shaoling may have also fallen for her sister-in-law.

And...those two...

Du's mother was in a state of turmoil when Rong Rong brought her tea.

"Mother."

Rong Rong was very respectful. Last night, Cui Cui had returned to her side, and Cui Cui had taught her the proper tea-serving etiquette.

Madam Du steadied herself, took the teacup, sipped it lightly, then handed Rongrong a pair of jade bracelets, saying calmly.

"You are already aware of Shaofeng's situation. He practiced under Master Kongji when he was young, but Master Kongji has now returned to Hanguang Temple."

"Why don't you two go and stay at the temple for a few months, so that Shaofeng can properly recuperate?"

Is she going to send herself and the male lead to the mountains?

Rong Rong was surprised, as this scene was not in the original plot.

But she thought it was a good thing; the male lead's two younger brothers were both a bit abnormal, so it was better to stay far away from them.

"Yes." Rong Rong obediently accepted the order.

Du's mother breathed a sigh of relief; it was best not to have to use harsh methods.

"No! I disagree!" Du Shaoqun roared, "Hanguang Temple is austere, Rongrong is weak, she can't endure it!"

Moreover, Master Kongji is actually the Imperial Preceptor, and with him blocking the way, it's unlikely that anyone will be able to easily see Rongrong again.

This was the solution Du Shaoling came up with, which greatly pleased his mother.

Sending the person away this way would allow the household to have some peace and quiet, preserving the Du family's reputation while avoiding trouble.

Moreover, even if those two wanted to find someone, they wouldn't be able to find the Du family.

Du Shaoqun cast a murderous glare at Du Shaoling, knowing full well that his good second brother had no good ideas.

Du Shaoling curled the corners of his lips. Could he say that the first person he was guarding against was his third brother?

And so, Rong Rong and Du Shaofeng were rushed to Hanguang Temple, accompanied only by Cui Cui and a few of Du Shaofeng's servants and guards.

The servants in Du Shaofeng's courtyard even fought over the right to go up the mountain with him.

Who wouldn't want to see the fairy-like young mistress every day?

...

Hanguang Temple, located on the top of Hongtu Mountain on the outskirts of Beijing, is currently the largest and most popular Buddhist holy site in Daqian, and was even personally designated as a national temple by the founding emperor of Daqian.

In addition, the scenery of Hongtu Mountain is also exceptional.

Every year, pilgrims and literati flock to the area to offer incense and enjoy the scenery.

The deepest part of the temple is a place that ordinary people cannot set foot in. Rong Rong and Du Shaofeng live in Anyuan, which is right next to the dense forest.

Du Shaofeng, the male protagonist, received a prophecy from Master Kongji at birth: "A minister who will greatly revitalize the nation!"

It was even asserted that his intellectual disability would be cured spontaneously after he came of age.

Master Kongji treated Du Shaofeng with great favor, not only keeping him by his side to teach him when he was young.

They still take in Du Shaofeng and Rong Rong, shielding them from many prying eyes and creating a paradise for them.

Rong Rong and Du Shaofeng spent a quiet but austere time together.
