In her previous life, Xie Qingran was rejected five times, becoming a notorious older "leftover woman" in the capital. She was forced to marry a widower who had 'jinxed' three wives...
Chapter 27 Whose World Is It?
How have I been promiscuous?
Xie Qingran straightened her clothes and looked coldly at Xie Hanyue, who was rambling on.
At this moment, Xie Hanyue finally saw the situation inside the room. Xie Qingran was still sitting on Xiao Jue's lap, and the two looked very close.
How could it be Xiao Jue! Shouldn't it be... Lu Jinzhi?
What about Lu Jinzhi?
Xie Hanyue kept looking around, but after a long time she still couldn't see the person she wanted to see.
"Little sister, what are you looking for?"
Xie Qingran finally stood up from Xiao Jue's arms and looked coldly at Xie Hanyue.
She was already a cold person, and now with her cold face, she was even more intimidating.
"No, I wasn't looking for anything. I was just worried about my sister."
"Sister, what are you doing with the prince? In broad daylight, you two..."
Xie Hanyue covered her mouth, looking at Xie Qingran in disbelief, her face full of shock, and her ears even turned red.
"What does Miss Xie think I, in my current state, could possibly do to your sister?"
Xiao Jue raised an eyebrow and spoke coldly.
Even if you can't see his expression, you can feel the coldness emanating from him.
Xie Yankang immediately reacted, strode forward, glared fiercely at Xie Hanyue, and scolded, "You brat, what nonsense are you spouting? Get back here right now!"
"Father?" Xie Hanyue looked at Xie Yankang in disbelief.
Such a big thing, are we just going to let it go like this?
“The young master’s clothes are wet, and he’s changing them here. He doesn’t know the way and he’s not feeling well, so I’m helping him.” Xie Qingran remained expressionless, and her tone of voice was completely flat, as if she were simply stating the facts.
"Yes, it is my Xie family's fault for not being hospitable enough." Xie Yankang was overjoyed to see the two of them together. He hoped that the two of them really had something shady going on, so that the marriage would be settled.
Seeing Xie Yankang's expression, Xie Qingran knew what he was thinking.
"Father, the young master hasn't changed his clothes yet, why don't you... do it?"
"No, you come here, you come here!"
Xie Yankang immediately waved his hand, turned around and left with everyone.
Everyone knows that since Xiao Jue became crippled, his personality has undergone a complete transformation. He has become extremely gloomy and prone to losing his temper at the slightest provocation!
Xie Yankang had no desire to provoke this living devil.
After leaving the house, Xie Yankang glanced at Xie Hanyue and said, "What a disgrace!"
From childhood to adulthood, Xie Yankang had never spoken such harsh words to Xie Hanyue. Xie Hanyue felt extremely wronged, and tears immediately streamed down her face.
Inside the room, Xie Qingran, without any expression, reached out and tugged at Xiao Jue's sash.
"do what?"
Her action was so abrupt and offensive that even Xiao Jue was caught off guard.
But Xie Qingran pressed on: "Father is waiting outside. I have to change your clothes, Your Highness. Don't worry, Your Highness, I'll be quick!"
As she spoke, Xie Qingran quickly took off Xiao Jue's clothes. She had been at the manor all along and had done everything herself, so she was very strong. When she lifted Xiao Jue up and down, she had no problem at all.
In the blink of an eye, the new clothes were ready.
Xie Qingran looked at the completely transformed Xiao Jue and nodded in satisfaction: "You look good, Your Highness, you really do."
"You! You! Are you even a woman?!"
"I'm a man, what are you doing?"
Xiao Jue had fought on the battlefield for many years and had seen many people, but this was the first time he had seen a girl like Xie Qingran!
Seeing Xiao Jue's red ears, Xie Qingran was also somewhat surprised.
Could it be that the heir of the dignified Duke of Zhenguo's mansion has never had a woman?
He seems to be older than her, right? How could that be?
“We’re going to be husband and wife someday!” Xie Qingran looked at Xiao Jue very seriously: “Why is Your Highness so shy?”
"How dare you! What nonsense are you spouting? Who said I wanted to be your husband?" Xiao Jue had never seen such a shameless girl before. Did she not know what shame was?
Upon hearing this, Xie Qingran pointed to the jade pendant at his waist: "If you didn't want to marry me, why would you carry the token of love I gave you with you? Don't worry, Your Highness, after I marry you, I will take good care of my younger brother and sister-in-law and serve my widowed sister-in-law and nephew. Don't worry."
With that, Xie Qingran opened the door and pushed Xiao Jue out. She didn't give Xiao Jue a chance to speak at all, and she was certain that he would cooperate with her act!
What a formidable girl! Even though Xiao Jue had seen so many schemes and plots, he couldn't do anything about her for the time being and could only go along with her and continue talking.
Xie Yankang was still waiting outside. He breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Xiao Jue had really changed his clothes and come out. Then, with a smile, he said, "My Qingran is the most considerate, Your Highness. Do you like her?"
"Miss Xie, you are indeed extraordinary," Xiao Jue said truthfully.
He looked at Xie Yankang thoughtfully: "Lord Xie, you really have a good way of training him."
Although these words sounded a bit strange, Xie Yankang was still certain that Xiao Jue didn't dislike Xie Qingran now, and the marriage was still very likely.
Now, when Xie Yankang looked at Xie Qingran, he felt that she was much more pleasing to the eye.
"Xie Qingran!"
Lu Jinzhi finally woke up at this moment.
He stumbled out, his clothes disheveled, glaring at Xie Qingran through gritted teeth.
Before she could say anything, Xie Qingran grabbed a vase from the side and smashed it hard on Lu Jinzhi's head. After confirming that Lu Jinzhi was unconscious, she dragged him into the room and slammed the door shut. The whole action was very smooth, as if she had done it countless times before.
this……
Things happened so fast that Xiao Jue and Xie Yankang were both momentarily stunned and unable to process what was going on.
How could there be another person in this house?
Xie Yankang, after all, was a man who had been navigating the political landscape for many years. He quickly learned his lesson and looked at Xie Qingran with even greater shock in his eyes!
Xie Qingran smiled slightly, as if nothing had happened, and pushed Xiao Jue towards the front yard. As for what happened next, it was up to Xie Yankang to handle it.
Watching Xie Qingran's retreating figure, Xie Yankang suddenly realized that this woman was not as simple as she appeared on the surface. She was cunning and ruthless. With such a personality, marrying into the Zhenguo Duke's Mansion was truly a good thing. She would definitely take control of the entire Zhenguo Duke's Mansion immediately. If she had a child, then the Zhenguo Duke's Mansion would be the domain of his Xie family.
