"That's right!"
Li Jingshu smiled broadly, holding Li Yunyan's hand, "With the two of us sisters working together, the future will definitely get better and better!"
"Yes!" Li Yunyan nodded emphatically, and even pulled Kang'er, who was playing nearby, over as well. "We will definitely get better and better!"
The two sisters smiled at each other. Kang'er looked up and saw his mother and aunt smiling, so he smiled too.
After dinner, Shen Fengxian's carriage came to pick her up.
Li Yunyan bid farewell to her sister and Kang'er and boarded the carriage.
There was a strong scent of incense in the carriage, as if it had just been applied, making Li Yunyan feel nauseous.
She rolled down the car window, said nothing, and watched the people coming and going outside.
Shen Fengxian and Li Mingshan remained seated side by side, gazing at Li Yunyan's profile, each lost in their own thoughts.
*
Spring brings frequent rains, and the continuous spring rains have caused the temperature to drop again, even though the weather had already started to warm up.
Li Yunyan has been taking Shen Fengxian's "tonics" for a month now.
She sensed that the bastard would be putting his plan into action in the next few days, so she became even more diligent in her pursuit of Chen Que.
Holding a teacup in her hands, Li Yunyan sat at Shen Que's desk, watching him read intently as she brewed her tea.
After this period of recuperation, Shen Que's body was no longer as thin and weak as before. He had become stronger and seemed to have grown taller.
Now he looks exactly like a grown man.
He looks reliable and capable.
Shen Que was multitasking. He knew his sister-in-law was watching him, a gentle smile on his lips, as he read quickly.
He finished reading the book in his hand, put it down, and looked at Li Yunyan with some helplessness.
"Sister-in-law, you don't need to keep an eye on me like this. I will study hard!"
Li Yunyan remained noncommittal, "Anyway, I have nothing else to do. Seeing you studying makes me happy!"
He smiled faintly, "I'm happy too."
"Now that you've finished reading, take a break and don't hurt your eyes!"
After she finished speaking, she stood up, but her foot was tripped by the hem of her skirt and the corner of the chair, and she let out a soft cry.
Shen Que's gaze had been fixed on her, and he noticed the situation immediately, reaching out and hooking with both hands.
He had his left arm around her waist and his right hand supporting the teacup in her hand.
She slumped onto his lap, her lips... pressed tightly against his.
......
After a moment of stunned silence, Li Yunyan immediately reached out and pushed him, trying to stand up.
Chen Que's hand did not loosen.
As if possessed, he deepened the kiss.
"Hmm!"
She froze for a few moments, and only when he tried to pry open her lips did she snap out of it and struggle fiercely.
They finally managed to break free, and both of their faces were visibly flushed.
"you!!"
Li Yunyan was both ashamed and angry, and raised her hand to hit him.
She finally let go of his hand, pushed him away, and ran off.
He called Dongyun, who was guarding outside the courtyard, and hurriedly left.
Shen Que was then shocked to realize what a terrible thing he had just done!
How could he not control himself?!
My sister-in-law must be very angry!
He looked down, then suddenly raised his hand and slapped himself hard across the face!
His sister-in-law couldn't bear to hit him! So he did!
*
night.
Shen Fengxian, for the first time ever, came to Li Yunyan's courtyard.
"Husband?"
Li Yunyan had already rested, and when she saw the person who came, her eyes were full of surprise.
Shen Fengxian's eyes kept flashing as he walked to the table, sat down, and poured himself a cup of tea.
Li Yunyan pulled on her coat, put on her shoes, and got off the bed.
Sitting next to him, looking at his face, I hesitated to speak.
"Husband...why are you here?"
There was a hint of joy in her eyes, along with a touch of disbelief and tentative curiosity.
After finishing his tea, Shen Fengxian poured himself another cup and said to her, "My lady, you've had a hard time these past few years since you married me!"
"It's not hard work!" She shook her head, tears welling up in her eyes.
Shen Fengxian took her hand and looked at her with what he thought was a very affectionate gaze. "Madam, let's retire for the night!"
A look of surprise lit up Li Yunyan's eyes, and she nodded with a mixture of joy and shyness.
Shen Fengxian blew out the lamp and pulled her to sit down on the bedside.
Then he walked back to the table in the dark, his hand touching the cup of tea he had just poured, and he shook it slightly.
He returned with a teacup, his voice gentle, "Madam, it's dry outside, please have some water first!"
[WARNING! WARNING! There's a sedative in the tea!]
"Thank you, my husband!"
Under the dim moonlight, Li Yunyan accepted the teacup, having already taken the antidote pill.
She drank it all in one gulp, and when he turned around to put the teacup down, she collapsed onto the bed.
Shen Fengxian stood by the bed and saw the woman lying on the bed. He snorted softly.
He turned and left the house.
"System, put Dongyun into a deep sleep. Don't let her wake up tonight!"
Okay!
"Help me see what Shen Que is doing, and lure him over here!"
【Okay, host!】
Shen Que was filled with unease about what had happened during the day, his mind racing with thoughts of how to face his sister-in-law the next day.
He heard voices coming from a courtyard not far away.
It was the voices of the eldest brother and Li Mingshan.
Are these two about to start something again?
The thought that such a wonderful sister-in-law had married someone like his elder brother filled him with boundless anger and jealousy!
My older brother is unaware of his good fortune; if it were him...
wrong!
Shen Que suddenly remembered what he had heard behind the carriage earlier.
