Chapter 52 Husband...

Her lips and breath were hot.

Rong Jianxue turned her head to avoid the hot breath, but still smelled the soft floral fragrance.

Pei Jingxu put her arms around the man's neck and pressed her whole body against him.

She wanted to call him something.

Two jade hands casually stroked his back, and the fingertips slowly moved downwards, as if counting his vertebrae.

She was talking nonsense, her waist was as slender and soft as a willow.

Rong Jianxue pursed his lips, frowned and didn't look at her.

It was the effect of the love potion, he should know that.

Pei Jingxu lowered her eyes and clung to the man's waist like a slippery snake. She raised her watery eyes, but frowned unhappily, and opened her mouth to lightly bite the man's chin.

"Um--"

Rong Jianxue widened his eyes, looking at her panicked and gloomy, and the knuckles between his sleeves tightened.

It didn't hurt, and it wasn't even that strong for him, but it was a little itchy, which made his mind a little confused.

He subconsciously pulled his waist back, but as soon as he did so, the woman's soft waist pressed against him.

She bit her cherry lips lightly, her eyes flickering: "Husband... why are you hiding from Ah Xu..."

Husband...jun...

Rong Jianxue was stunned for a moment, then her eyes darkened, and even the hand across her waist became a little stronger.

Pei Jingxu's eyes flashed with a gleam of success, but his face softened even more, like a fish out of water. He raised his eyes to look at him: "Erlang, look at Ah Xu..."

It was the effect of the love potion, he should know that.

She recognized the wrong person.

She once said that he looked very similar to Xuan Zhou.

——She always seemed to mistake him for someone else.

The eyes, like a cold pond, were coated with a layer of frost and snow. Rong Jianxue's throat rolled twice, and those cold eyes finally fell on her.

The coat he draped over her was wrinkled beyond recognition and stained with his scent, like it belonged to him.

"Who am I?" he asked her.

He knew clearly that she had been drugged, but he still stubbornly demanded an answer from her.

Pei Jingxu's eyes were filled with shyness, like the stamens of a blooming flower. She wrapped her arms around him tighter, and spoke softly, "Husband... Erlang..."

The large hand covered her lower back, exerting a little force. Pei Jingxu groaned softly, tears welling up in the corners of her eyes: "Erlang...it hurts..."

Rong Jianxue tilted her head slightly, with no pity or mercy in her eyes.

Pei Jingxu was frightened by that expression, but she made up her mind and grabbed his hand.

"Husband... help Ah Xu..."

Finally, there was visible panic on his face!

Almost in an instant, he pulled his hand away from her!

Looking at the woman in front of him in disbelief, Rong Jianxue's fingertips felt burning hot where she had just touched.

"Erlang..."

She begged him again, seeming to be in great pain.

Tears fell on Rong Jianxue's clothes, and Rong Jianxue had not even recovered from the touch just now!

"Does Erlang dislike Ah Xu? Does Erlang no longer like Ah Xu?"

When facing Rong Xuanzhou, she always seems to be worried about gains and losses.

Rong Jianxue's eyes were dull, without a trace of light.

She also always asks, don’t you like Ah Xu anymore?

He is not Rong Xuanzhou, so how can he know whether he likes it or not.

The fingertips were a little wet, and Rong Jianxue's knuckles turned white, so she didn't dare to touch it at all.

The woman on his body had tearful eyes, as if she wanted to please him.

——The one she was trying to please was not him, but her “Erlang”.

Rong Jianxue's eyes were cold and her voice was hoarse: "Pei Jingxu."

He called her this with a hint of warning.

The effect of the medicine this time was obviously much more serious than last time. Pei Jingxu cried softly and responded to him muffledly, "Erlang."

Still haven't come to his senses.

She felt so uncomfortable that she seemed to be going crazy, but she seemed to be worried about annoying him, so she just hugged him and didn't dare to ask him for anything.

Rong Jianxue pursed her lips and frowned, then turned her head away with a gloomy and cold expression.

Pei Jingxu's crying was very soft, sticking tightly to his clothes.

He didn't look at her, but he felt her small movements.

She felt hot all over, and she felt the coolness in his arms, her body shaking involuntarily.

The delicate skin rubbed against the man's stiff clothes, making a rustling sound.

She had no strength in her hands, and her arms around his neck loosened at some point, but she did not fall.

Rong Jianxue held her waist and let her sit steadily in his arms.

He heard the woman murmuring unconsciously, as if she had fainted from the pain.

She called Rong Xuanzhou "Erlang" and said she missed him very much. She said she would wait for him to come home and remarry him.

Curled up in his arms, she was calling out to other men.

But this is not the right way to think.

——He doesn’t have the qualifications.

The woman's breathing gradually became steady and even from heavy. Rong Jianxue lowered his eyes and saw that her eyelashes were wet and she had fallen asleep.

Rong Jianxue closed her eyes slightly.

He picked her up, barely avoiding the embarrassment on his body, put her coat back on, and then walked out the door.

Outside the door, Jiang Hui was waiting.

Seeing Rong Jianxue carrying Pei Jingxu out, Jiang Hui widened his eyes and didn't dare to say a word.

"Stop what happened today, and no one is allowed to mention it."

She was sold into a brothel, and even if she had not lost her virginity, the gossip would have made her a target of public criticism.

Jiang Hui clasped his fists and bowed his head, not daring to look at the second lady in the young master's arms: "Yes, I understand."

--

Pei Jingxu really took the love potion given by Li Niang.

If not, with Rong Jianxue's insight, he would definitely notice something unusual.

It's just that she took less, so she could probably still control her behavior.

After sleeping for a whole day, Pei Jingxu woke up the next night in his familiar bedroom.

Hongyao, holding the basin of water, saw that she had finally woken up and hurried forward: "Miss! Miss, you are finally awake! You almost scared me to death!"

Hongyao's eyes were red, and it was obvious that she had been crying for a long time.

Pei Jingxu looked around and rubbed his swollen head: "Where's Rong Jianxue?"

Upon hearing this, Hongyao carefully looked around and whispered, "Miss, the eldest master was whipped yesterday."

Pei Jingxu frowned: "What?"

"Last night, after the eldest son settled the girl, he went to the ancestral hall and asked for the family rules."

Pei Jingxu was stunned for a moment, not quite reacting: "Rong Jianxue didn't do anything wrong, why did she ask for family discipline?"

"Miss, you don't know. Yesterday, the old lady and her maid refused to tell us where you were, so the eldest son... lynched the maid..."

Pei Jingxu raised his eyebrows slightly.

——How could a gentleman who has always been upright and honest, with a strong character and a dignified demeanor, resort to lynching in order to obtain clues?

Pei Jingxu curled his lips, and a light appeared in his eyes.

It seems that this time, Rong's unexpected move actually helped her a lot.

"The eldest master asked the people in the mansion to suppress this matter. I only found out about it after asking around repeatedly." Hongyao added.

Pei Jingxu nodded.

He probably didn't tell her because he didn't want her to "misunderstand".

He didn't want her to know that he did this for her.

——How could Pei Jingxu let him get his wish?
