Chapter 188 She wore that

Without even waiting for Pei Jingxu to react.

The man pinched her waist and grabbed her breath. Pei Jingxu easily sensed his desire.

Her eyes were wandering, and Pei Jingxu was held by the man's waist, not allowing her to move back even a little.

In a panic, Pei Jingxu looked up at him with helplessness and confusion in his eyes.

Rong Jianxue remained silent, leaning against her waist, with red at the corners of his eyes.

Noticing the man's strangeness, Pei Jingxu's eyes were misty and shimmering: "You, what's wrong with you..."

His face looked wrong.

The man kissed her from her earlobe all the way to her neck, his voice low and hoarse: "Shen was here, and drugs were put in the tea."

Pei Jingxu raised his eyebrows slightly, and a hint of understanding flashed in his eyes.

She had previously asked Hongyao to follow Bai Shutong, and she also found out that after Bai Shutong left Rong Mansion, he went to a mansion.

She guessed that was where Shen Congyue was hiding.

I originally planned to reveal this news to Rong Jianxue after the prayer ceremony was over, but I didn't expect that Shen Congyue would come to me first.

The hand across her waist tightened, and the man lowered his eyes slightly to smell the jasmine scent on her neck.

The fragrance was too close, so it seemed much weaker.

As if unwilling, Rong Jianxue pinched her waist and forced her to stick close to him.

With a cry of pain, Pei Jingxu's waist softened and she fell into the man's arms.

He picked her up and carried her sideways, walking towards the bed in the inner room.

Pei Jingxu panicked upon seeing this, struggling with his legs, and said in a panic: "Jun, Junmou, we have to go entertain the guests..."

He was pressed onto the bed.

Rong Jianxue looked down at her and asked, "Entertaining unmarried women?"

Pei Jingxu bit her lip slightly, her eyes moist, and turned her head away from him: "Erlang wants me to do this, what can I do?"

Rong Jianxue's eyes were cold and heavy, and she suppressed her anger: "Pei Jingxu, tell Rong Xuanzhou."

"If he wants to please me, it's your turn."

That little bit of love potion was not enough to disturb his thoughts.

——But she is different.

Even just calling his name would cause his army to collapse.

He saw the piece of clothing that was most fitting for her.

The pure white satin was so soft and thin that it could even bring out the red and white of her skin.

The flapping crane's wings are covered by its coat, and only the red on its head and the black and white on its wings can be seen.

It makes her skin look even whiter than snow.

——She wore the one he gave her.

When she cried, the crane on her chest flapped its wings as if to fly away, and at the corner of her clothes, she could faintly see the words he had embroidered on her.

Showing his possessions.

He looked at the crane, which was tottering, just like his own tottering mind.

Until finally, the crane fell from the clouds and howled as it was about to die.

…

I don't know when her clothes were prepared in the study.

It was half an hour later when Pei Jingxu changed his clothes.

——He was still dissatisfied.

But he didn't punish her anymore, and changed her clothes slowly and leisurely.

The word that his fingertips stroked over the corner of her clothes.

Rong Jianxue pursed her lips and raised her eyebrows, then lowered her eyes to look at her, her voice low and hoarse, pleasant: "Good girl."

Pei Jingxu frowned slightly and turned her head away, not daring to look at him.

Jiang Hui knocked on the door: "Master, Second Madam, the banquet has begun..."

Rong Jianxue said "hmm" indifferently, her eyes still fixed on Pei Jingxu: "If you dare to agree to this kind of banquet again in the future, it won't be as simple as today."

Pei Jingxu bit her lip slightly, her voice a little hoarse, "Instead of blaming Rong Xuanzhou, you blame me."

Pinching her chin, Rong Jianxue's eyes were cold and deep: "I will deal with him myself."

Pei Jingxu didn't say anything else and let him bend over and help her tidy up her clothes.

Looking at Rong Jianxue, Pei Jingxu asked, "Miss Chen...is she in the Rong Mansion now?"

"Yeah," Rong Jianxue applied a little force as the soft belt wrapped around her slender waist, her expression indifferent, "Jiang Hui has been following."

Pei Jingxu's eyes widened when he heard this: "Guard Jiang has been following us?"

Rong Jianxue responded indifferently with a calm look.

Pei Jingxu frowned, lifted Rong Jianxue's chin, and frowned at him: "Then how did she drug you?"

He paused while tying the jade belt for her.

There was no trace of embarrassment on his face at being discovered, but he raised his eyebrows slightly and chuckled: "Ah Xu, you are very smart at times like this."

Pei Jingxu pretended to be angry: "Rong Jianxue, you lied to me!"

After helping her tie her belt, the man leaned over slightly, his eyes level with hers: "Otherwise, why would you come to see me?"

Pei Jingxu turned his head away unhappily, his eyes moving: "Then... where is Miss Chen now?"

"Jiang Hui has taken him back to the Prime Minister's Residence." Rong Jianxue's tone was indifferent, without any unnecessary emotion.

Hearing this, Pei Jingxu lowered his eyes where Rong Jianxue couldn't see: "Did Miss Chen come to the Rong Mansion just to drug you?"

Rong Jianxue didn't say anything.

Definitely not.

Pei Jingxu raised his eyebrows slightly, and a hint of coldness flashed in his eyes.

Shen Congyue was a bit stupid, but it was impossible for him to go through so much trouble to return to the capital and sneak into the Rong Mansion just to drug Rong Jianxue.

So, maybe giving the drug was just out of selfish motives, she must have other purposes.

"Don't worry about it," Rong Jianxue said in a cold tone, "I'll take care of it, no need to worry."

After hearing this, Pei Jingxu began to understand a little.

——She guessed that Chen Congyue’s return to Beijing this time was actually for her.

Bai Shutong also knew where Shen Congyue was hiding, but he didn't tell anyone, obviously wanting to help her keep it secret.

No matter what, Chen Congyue's purpose of coming to Rong Mansion is closely related to Pei Jingxu.

Rong Jianxue clearly knew something, but didn't tell her.

She really wanted to know—

How will Rong Jianxue "handle" this matter?

--

On the other side, outside the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Jiang Hui stood straight, his eyes calm and indifferent.

Upon hearing the news that his beloved daughter had been found, Shen Anshan practically ran out of Rong Mansion to greet her!

Outside the mansion, Jiang Hui was holding the woman at hand, and her neat clothes were stained with blood.

Shen Anshan widened his eyes, took a deep breath, and came to Shen Congyue. When he saw Shen Congyue's face clearly, tears streamed down his face.

"Cong Yue! Where on earth have you been?! What on earth do you want to do?!"

"You lost your mother when you were young, and I doted on you. I never thought you would become such a spoiled person!"

"How will Daddy face your mother's spirit in heaven in the future?!"

“…”

Shen Anshan is over fifty years old and has a son in his old age. He treats Shen Congyue with all his heart.

Now seeing her in such a haggard and miserable state, I feel angry and hurt.

Jiang Hui, who was standing aside, had an unchanged expression and looked as indifferent as usual.

Shen Anshan talked for a long time, but Shen Congyue didn’t say another word.

Sensing something strange, Shen Anshan frowned slightly, lifted Shen Congyue's head, and spoke tentatively: "Congyue...you, what's wrong with you?"

There were blood stains on Shen Congyue's clothes. At first, Shen Anshan thought it was from someone else, but now he noticed that she hid her left hand in her sleeve and refused to show it to others.

As if realizing something, Shen Anshan grabbed Shen Congyue's wrist in a panic and lifted up his sleeve——

The five fingers that were originally as slender as water chestnuts are now missing the little finger, leaving only four fingers!

"What, what's going on? Who did this?!" Shen Anshan's eyes were wide open with anger, and his eyes were bloodshot!
