I didn't get a good look at Ying'er Residence last time I went, so I'll have to check it out this time. Since Xie Yuancheng is so sincere, I naturally agreed.

"Yuancheng~ let's go quickly, you just said it, why aren't you going?" I've already changed my clothes, but he still won't budge.

"Hmm~ I don't like it when Ying'er is too happy. We'll just stay in the house and not go anywhere. Anyway, you missed the morning time."

"What?! I coaxed you into changing into pretty clothes, kissed and hugged you, I was all ready, and you're saying you're not going!"

As I spoke, I snatched the keys from his waist. I'd barely gotten them when he realized what was happening. Sigh, my schemes weren't as cunning as his. I quickly threw myself on Xie Yuancheng, bracing myself against him to see what was going on.

"If you keep looking at me like that, we really won't be able to go out~" Xie Yuancheng looked at me with a big smile, and I smiled back at him, subtly turning my head to the side and tugging at my collar.

"I knew you couldn't handle it!" I saw that his eyes were wide open, so I quickly got up. "If you don't want to go, I'll go by myself. It's my room anyway."

"Ying'er~ You're a little rascal~ and a female villain!" Just as I was about to leave, he came over and hugged me, so I lifted his hand to get up.

“You said you weren’t going, but now I’m going by myself. You dare to come with me.”

"Not only am I going to follow you, but I won't let you leave either~" My keys were snatched back in the blink of an eye. "You came here to tease me, don't you know I have no resistance to Ying'er?"

It was too late for me to struggle. Xie Yuancheng said it was nap time and wouldn't let me leave until he woke up. It's all my fault for being young and not learning martial arts properly from my father. He suppressed me so much that I had no room to maneuver.

Xie Yuancheng is quite good at coaxing people; he undressed me right after I changed, and I fell asleep even faster than he did. I had a dream that I went on a trip with him, and many places were very beautiful.

"Yuancheng!" I called out to him. Could it be that I had a beautiful dream and retained the memory? When I opened my eyes, I was still under a blue gauze curtain, with Xie Yuancheng lying next to me.

"Get up now~" I rubbed him. Xie Yuancheng can sleep too much. I'm already up and he still wants to sleep. There's no way he's going to sleep.

"Ying'er, I'm so sleepy." You're so energetic, I'm the one who should be sleepy, everyone's up and you're still sleeping!

I pulled Xie Yuancheng's hair; it was messy at noon, and he was sweating. It's amazing he could sleep so soundly.

"I'm going to Ying'er Residence, you big liar!" Ignore the hair-pulling, since his hair was already messy, and my body felt weak.

"I want to sleep, I'm not getting up~" Xie Yuancheng came over and pressed me down so I wouldn't get up. I was about to burst into tears. He always manages to outsmart me.

"Little Chengcheng~ wake up quickly, my dearest Marquis~"

"No~" He always likes to act cute whenever he has free time, and I can't resist it anymore. "Ying'er is tired, we need to rest."

"Who did this?! I told you to get up but you wouldn't. I won't do it again next time."

"Ying'er~" He pretended not to understand again, hugged me and covered me with the quilt, "Let's go see it tonight, there will be lights anyway, we can go during the day later."

"Were you planning not to take me with you at first?" I pushed his hand away, and Xie Yuancheng leaned closer again, finally opening his eyes.

But then he suddenly poked my waist, and I was in so much pain that I almost kicked him off the bed. "See? Your waist still hurts. Don't overwork yourself. Take good care of yourself. We can do it together later."

"No!" I covered his mouth, refusing to let him speak. "Just tone it down a bit. It's one thing to imitate my coquettishness, but you always have to go and do other things."

"We're husband and wife, how can this be considered improper? Look, on our wedding night, you wouldn't let me take off my clothes, and you even complained about sharing a pillow with me~"

"Okay, okay, I'm sorry first. You're not allowed to talk about this again. If you do, I'll get angry."

"Then go to sleep quickly. It's only 3:45 PM now. I'll wake you up when it's time."

Xie Yuancheng had looked at my face, so I shouldn't have looked into his eyes. I was fooled like that, and I just listened to him and fell asleep in his arms.

After he woke up, I read it twice before he got up. It was already dark outside. I served him his meal and massaged his shoulders before we went out.

“I want you to carry me on your back~” I told him to squat down and jumped onto his back. “I told you not to come out with me this afternoon, so I want you to carry me.”

"Yes~ Ying'er just likes to be naughty. Xi Zhi and the others are back. Do you want to go see them?"

"That's definitely on purpose!" I pinched his earlobe. "With your sister here! If you keep lying to me and we don't see anything interesting, I'll beat you up!"

"Hehe~" Xie Yuancheng turned around, and I covered his face, telling him to leave quickly and stop trying to act cute with me.

Fortunately, we didn't encounter anyone on the way. Ying'er Residence was finally in sight. I wanted to get off: "Let go quickly, the key is in my hand."

"You ignored me this morning, then deliberately teased me at noon, and then disturbed my sleep this afternoon. Do I want you to come into the room or not?"

"Of course I'm going! I was only angry because you came home late the night before, hmph!"

"They didn't even try to comfort me, and they won't let Ying'er in."

"No, I'll go by myself. You wait outside." I whispered in his ear, my voice so soft that I could feel Xie Yuancheng's face burning.

“We’ll go back, we won’t let you leave. We’ll keep you by our side every day, and you’ll have to see Ying’er wherever you go.”

"Hmph~ Now I want to go in and see, but you won't let me. You said you'd come with me, but you're the best at making things up."

"Ying'er, you still don't trust me! You've been arguing with me since last night, and you didn't listen to me at noon."

I couldn't argue with him, so I turned to look elsewhere. I knew that if I ignored him, he would let me down. I stood on the ground and took his arm to go inside. After all, Xie Yuancheng is the center.

"Come on, you ignored me last night, so let's talk about it today. You've gone so far today, but I haven't said anything. Just come inside with me."

Xie Yuancheng tapped my nose, "If I didn't bring a tinderbox and the house was pitch black when I went inside, I could do whatever I wanted."

"Don't try to fool me. I always carry a fire with me, look." I took out his special tinderbox from my sleeve, which he always carried with him when he went out.

"We have a fire, but what about a fan?" What's a fan? Why would we need a fan to come inside?

Xie Yuancheng looked at me innocently. I was sure of it; he had set a huge trap and was waiting for me to crawl into it. I took out a fan from my sleeve and showed it to him.

"Not bad, Ying'er even knew to take the fan I specially made for you. It took me a whole day to paint it, and every stroke is a thought of you. But she still went to find someone else and wanted to break up with me."
