Chapter 68 Waiting for You to Get Better

Pei Jingzhou paused and turned his head to meet Jiang Zhaoyue's bright eyes.

"You want me to respect myself again?" Jiang Zhaoyue asked.

"No." Pei Jingzhou denied.

"Let me be more reserved?"

"no."

"You're saying I'm messing around?"

“Not really.”

"What is that?" Usually when Jiang Zhaoyue teased Pei Jingzhou, the words she got most often were "respect yourself", "be reserved", "play around", etc. She couldn't think of what other criticisms he could say.

Pei Jingzhou withdrew his gaze, lowered his head slightly, and walked forward slowly, whispering, "Wait until you're better."

If it were daytime, Jiang Zhaoyue would definitely see Pei Jingzhou's ears red at this time, but now she couldn't see it, but she was still very surprised: "You said, when I get better, I can strip you, kiss you, and sleep with you?"

Pei Jingzhou said "hmm".

"Really?" Jiang Zhaoyue's cheek was almost touching his.

Pei Jingzhou felt the soft hairs on her cheeks caressing his skin, which made him feel itchy. His throat rolled involuntarily and he responded, "Hmm."

"Oh, I'm so looking forward to it!" Jiang Zhaoyue now pressed her cheek directly against his.

Pei Jingzhou was stunned for a moment, then slowly raised the corners of his mouth in the darkness.

Jiang Zhaoyue said cheerfully, "Then I forgive you."

Pei Jingzhou said: "Thank you very much."

"You're welcome, we are husband and wife."

Pei Jingzhou's smile became even wider.

"But..." Jiang Zhaoyue changed the subject.

"But what?" Pei Jingzhou asked.

Jiang Zhaoyue said: "However, next time something like this happens to me——"

"There won't be a next time!" Pei Jingzhou's voice suddenly became serious.

Jiang Zhaoyue hypothesized: "What if?"

"No chance of that happening!" Pei Jingzhou said in a firm tone.

"I said just in case!"

“Nothing can happen!”

Jiang Zhaoyue asked, "Can you let me tell you just in case?"

"I won't let you say that!" This was the first time Pei Jingzhou argued with Jiang Zhaoyue to this extent.

Jiang Zhaoyue immediately said, "I'll tell you what I'll tell you!"

When it comes to being unreasonable, Pei Jingzhou is definitely no match for Jiang Zhaoyue.

Jiang Zhaoyue continued, "If something like this happens to me again next time and you can't find me anywhere, just go to the brothel."

"Go to the brothel to find you?" Pei Jingzhou was surprised.

"Yes." Jiang Zhaoyue nodded.

Pei Jingzhou asked: "You went to a brothel to solicit men?"

Jiang Zhaoyue wasn't surprised to find that there were not only women but also men in the brothel in Dajin. Instead, she was shocked by Pei Jingzhou's words: "Second Master! You are a noble, elegant and polite young man from an aristocratic family. How could you say such rude words?"

"I learned it from you." Pei Jingzhou said confidently.

"I..." Jiang Zhaoyue couldn't help but blurt out these words. She immediately tilted her head and looked at Pei Jingzhou's handsome face: "Second Master, this boy is teachable."

"You are being disrespectful." Pei Jingzhou said in a gentle voice.

Jiang Zhaoyue smiled lightly: "I don't like men, I only like the Second Master."

Pei Jingzhou was happy to hear that.

"It's because I'm so beautiful that someone wants to do something bad to me. They must want to sell me to a brothel. I'm telling you in advance so that you can find me quickly." After entering the book, the plot was completely messed up. Even though Yang Yanchen was beheaded, she was still worried that she could not escape the shackles of the plot and died tragically in a brothel.

"Okay." Pei Jingzhou said solemnly, "But I won't let this happen."

"Well, Second Master is so nice." Jiang Zhaoyue said.

“Not good.”

"Okay, okay, I said Second Master is really nice, Second Master is really nice."

Pei Jingzhou couldn't help laughing out loud.

Pei Che heard it and asked in surprise: "Is it Second Brother who is laughing?"

"Yes." Pei Jing replied.

"You looked like you were about to die just now, but now you're laughing just because I'm saying something funny?"

"Because Second Grandma is here."

yes.

My second sister-in-law is here.

Second brother's whole body wasn't that cold anymore.

Pei Che couldn't help but look back. His second sister-in-law was lying on his second brother's back, chattering non-stop. His second brother had a smile on his face... This was the first time he had seen his second brother so gentle and smiling since he could remember.

He immediately thought of his second sister-in-law who enthusiastically helped him to talk to Qin You and saved Qin You's life. She was indeed worthy of his second brother's care.

He couldn't help but smile too.

Jiang Zhaoyue and Pei Jingzhou paid no attention to Pei Che. They followed everyone across the Jingshui River and arrived at the main road leading into the city.

"Second brother." Pei Che came over.

Pei Jingzhou arranged: "You and Fifth Sister send Princess Duojia back—"

"Princess! Princess!" A group of torches came towards this side.

Only when they got closer did Pei Jingzhou see clearly that it was the guards riding horses looking for Princess Duojia.

"Princess! Lord Pei!" The captain of the guard dismounted and saluted Princess Duojia.

"Get up," Princess Duojia asked, "Does the emperor know that I'm missing?"

"yes."

Duojia asked worriedly, "Is the emperor angry?"

"The emperor cares so much about the princess, he must be anxious." Pei Jingzhou continued.

Princess Duojia instantly felt relieved and looked at Pei Jingzhou: "Master Pei is right, I will go back now."

"Well, the emperor has been in poor health recently, so the princess should pay more attention to him."

Princess Duoxi knew that her father liked Lord Pei, and Lord Pei naturally knew her father's physical condition, so she didn't think much about it: "Okay, I will."

"Take care, Princess."

"Well, thank you Pei——"

"Thank me." Jiang Zhaoyue, who was lying on Pei Jingzhou's back, spoke.

Princess Duojia thanked Jiang Zhaoyue, Pei Jingzhou, Pei Sijing and others.

"Princess, don't forget to repay me," Jiang Zhaoyue said.

Princess Duojia calmed down and her temper returned. She hummed softly, said "I know", and left with the palace maid and the captain of the guard.

Pei Jingzhou asked Pei Che and Pei Jing to send Old Man Wu and other villagers to the yamen. He took Jiang Zhaoyue, Pei Sijing and others back to the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion.

"Second sister-in-law!"

"Second Madam Pei!"

"Second Madam!"

“…”

Pei Siya, Pei Heng, Qin You and others were waiting at the door.

"Hey." Jiang Zhaoyue responded while lying on Pei Jingzhou's back.

"Waaaaaaah!" Pei Heng suddenly burst into tears.

"Fifth brother, why are you crying?" Jiang Zhaoyue directed Pei Jingzhou to walk up to Pei Heng and reached out to touch the little guy's head.

Pei Heng hugged Jiang Zhaoyue's arms and cried, "Second sister-in-law, I thought you were dead. I thought I would never see you again."

"My second sister-in-law is very powerful, she won't die so easily." Jiang Zhaoyue said with a smile.

"Are you injured?" Pei Heng asked hurriedly when he suddenly saw Jiang Zhaoyue's purple forehead and tattered clothes.

"I was hurt a little bit."

Pei Heng immediately said, "Let me take a look."

"It's the middle of the night. Go to bed quickly and we'll see tomorrow." Jiang Zhaoyue could see that Pei Heng and the others cared about her, and she felt an indescribable warmth in her heart. However, she didn't want them to stay up late, so she hurriedly urged them to go to bed.

They felt that Jiang Zhaoyue needed to be bandaged and rested quickly, so they didn't dare to delay. They made an appointment to visit her tomorrow and left quickly.

Jiang Zhaoyue finally returned to Linhuayuan with Pei Jingzhou.

The doctor from Lu's mansion arrived just in time and hurriedly examined Jiang Zhaoyue's injuries.

"Second Master, the Duke and his wife invite you to Songqing Hall." Yinping appeared at this time.
