When Pei Yuan came in, he didn't turn on the lights. The whole room was dark. Bao Ning sat on the bed, and Pei Yuan was outside. Through a green curtain, Bao Ning heard him yelling.

"Ji Bao Ning, I'll count to three, and you open the door for me!"

"Three!"

"Two!"

After counting to two, Pei Yuan deliberately waited for a while. Seeing that there was no movement, he panicked.

But he couldn't bear to say something soft, so he forced himself to knock on the door again, his voice even louder: "Are you getting bolder? You dare not listen to me?"

"I'll give you another chance."

Pei Yuan said "hmm", and he didn't know who he was looking for a step down. He pointed two fingers in the air: "I'll count again. If you don't open the door after three, Ji Baoning, you have to think about it!"

"Three..."

"Two, I'll count to two."

"Two!"

The wooden door was suddenly opened with a bang. Baoning stood on the footstool of the step-out bed, looking down at him, his eyes round: "Pei Yuan, you are as childish as a puppy!"

"Pay attention to the way you talk, who are you being rude to?!"

Pei Yuan's eyes flew over, He looked at her with a gloomy face, but he was relieved in his heart.

Fortunately, the door was opened, otherwise he really didn't know what to do.

He couldn't really break the door open, otherwise Baoning would ignore him for several days, but he couldn't beg her in a low voice. The best way was to let her open the door herself.

Pei Yuan didn't know why Baoning was angry and why she locked him out again.

But now there is something more important than this. What did she hide in the bed?

"Get out of the way." Pei Yuan stood up with a frown, pushed Baoning aside, and turned her bedding over and over. There was nothing, and Pei Yuan was even more confused.

He clearly heard a strange sound just now, and turned it over again.

Baoning stood aside with her arms folded, pursed her lips and looked at him, not wanting to say a word.

This man's face was sour again, and it was really too much.

He didn't come back at night without any explanation, and suddenly came back in the middle of the night, banging on the door and swearing, and now he ran to her bed and made a mess.

He might as well not come back and leave quickly!

Ah Huang lay at her feet, staring at Pei Yuan's movements with green eyes.

The step-out bed is a small room-like structure, with a bed inside and a half-step-wide footrest outside, with a small table and a small cabinet, and then a green gauze cabinet, which is a partition door.

Pei Yuan stood on the footrest, looking at the messy bed he made and pondered for a long time, and finally felt that he seemed to have done something wrong.

In fact, he didn't suspect Bao Ning was doing something bad behind his back at first. He wanted to ask in a friendly way.

But Bao Ning was the first to turn his face away. Not only did he kick him down, but he also refused to let him in. He could only keep a straight face and force himself not to bow his head.

At this point, Pei Yuan felt a little uncomfortable. A feeling similar to regret was fermenting in his heart, but he refused to admit it. He turned around and covered it up with a cold voice: "Why don't you turn on the light?"

Bao Ning looked at him in disbelief: "How can you say that? It's too unreasonable!"

She remembered that half a month ago, in that small courtyard, Pei Yuan hugged her very kindly and talked to her for a long time. It was probably to apologize to her and promised that he would get along with her like a normal couple in the future, and if he did anything wrong, he would change.

Bao Ning was so moved at that time that she thought Pei Yuan had really realized it, but look at his appearance. He had been a decent man for just two days, but he became a sour-faced monkey again.

"What can I not say?" Pei Yuan said seriously, "The husband is the wife's bond. You have to listen to me."

Bao Ning was so angry that her fingertips were cold.

If it were the past, she would still be afraid of Pei Yuan. Today, maybe she was too brave, or she was really angry with Pei Yuan. Bao Ning didn't even want to talk to him. She walked around him barefoot, sat on the edge of the bed, and pointed outside: "It's up to you. If you want to go crazy, go outside and don't bother me here."

Pei Yuan snorted coldly.

After another stalemate, Pei Yuan lost the battle and went to find a flint to light the lamp.

The room suddenly lit up.

Behind the tulle cabinet, the lamb stuck half of its head out and looked at Pei Yuan's back in confusion. Pei Yuan turned around and met its eyes.

"My God, what is that thing!"

The lamb cried: "Baa——"

Pei Yuan didn't come back to his senses for a long time, and his eyebrows twitched: "Ji Baoning, you'd better explain it to me."

Baoning looked at him with red eyes: "Pei Yuan, you'd better not always call me by my full name, I don't like it."

She dared to yell at him. Pei Yuan was stunned for a moment, clenched his fists at his side, and finally changed his words: "Baoning."

Baoning said "hmm".

She lowered her head, her hair fell down softly and fell on her shoulders. From Pei Yuan's perspective, he could only see her smooth and full forehead and the slightly red nose tip.

When she cried, her eyes turned red first, and then her nose. Pei Yuan had experienced this many times. Seeing this, the pent-up anger in his heart disappeared, and turned into panic and guilt.

"No, we were talking fine, why are you crying again?"

Pei Yuan walked towards her, sat next to her, and softened his tone: "You kicked me to the ground first, how dare you complain to a bad person first?"

Bao Ning still lowered her head: "I didn't mean to do it, I just saw a black shadow and thought it was a bad guy."

Pei Yuan pinched her chin and asked her to look up. Seeing that only her eyes were red, without tears, he felt relieved.

"The general's mansion is guarded by layers of guards. Not even a strange bird can fly in. There won't be any bad guys."

He was no longer as aggressive as he was at the beginning, and his tone was a little coaxing: "Come on, it's my fault. Next time you come back so late, I'll knock on the door first and won't surprise you."

Bao Ning thought to herself, she really made the right bet. Pei Yuan is a man who only responds to soft tactics and not to hard ones. The more you resist him, the higher he will raise his hooves. I don't know what else he will do to you.

But if you ignore him and shed a few tears, he will immediately obey.

Bao Ning whispered: "I waited for you all night yesterday."

Pei Yuan's attention was attracted by the lamb, and he didn't hear Bao Ning's words clearly, so he asked again: "What?"

"Where did you go last night? You didn't even bring me a message. Are you so busy?" Bao Ning looked at him, "I don't know what you are doing. I'm very worried. I waited for you all night, but you just didn't come back."

Bao Ning asked: "Do you think you are too much?"

Pei Yuan was speechless.

He discussed important matters with someone until very late yesterday, and he felt really tired, so he didn't come back. He slept in Qiu Mingshan's study all night and forgot about Bao Ning. He also thought about whether to ask someone to deliver a message, but he didn't take it to heart, partly because it was troublesome, and partly because he felt it was unnecessary. He didn't think Bao Ning would wait for him. Pei

Yuan felt even more guilty. He calmed down now. Thinking of his actions just now, he rubbed his fingertips, not knowing what to do to redeem himself.

Baoning didn't expect him to have any regrets at all. She just didn't complain. If Pei Yuan was willing, Baoning would be satisfied if he could tell her next time something like this happens again.

"You must be tired after working for so long." Baoning sighed and turned around to make the bed, "Get some rest early. Are you going to get up early tomorrow?"

Pei Yuan looked at her back and suddenly reached out to grab her arm: "Wait a moment."

Baoning had calmed down. She flattened the pillow and didn't look back: "What's wrong?"

"Close your eyes first," Pei Yuan said, "Close your eyes and do whatever I ask you to do. I'll show you something good."

"You're just being mysterious. Just take it out directly." Baoning made the bed, knelt down, and looked at Pei Yuan, "Aren't you tired?"

Pei Yuan's lips were twisted: "Just be obedient."

Baoning was helpless and closed her eyes: "Then hurry up."

Pei Yuan coughed uncomfortably, sat down with his back to her, and pointed to his head: "Put your hand up."

Baoning did as she was told. Pei Yuan touched her thigh again, and Baoning exclaimed: "What are you doing?"

"Just do it as I tell you." Pei Yuan was not very happy, "Don't blink, follow my movements."

Baoning pursed her lips, she relaxed, and let Pei Yuan open her legs and lift them up. She closed her eyes, not knowing what Pei Yuan did, but based on the feeling, her legs seemed to be on his shoulders.

"What on earth do you want to do..." Bao Ning was a little flustered, "Don't make a fuss, I'm scared."

"Don't worry, you won't fall." Pei Yuan said, "Are you steady?"

Bao Ning trembled and said "hmm". She regretted that she had just confronted Pei Yuan. She had no advantage in force at all, so what was the point of showing off? Now she was deceived by Pei Yuan again.

Pei Yuan touched her other thigh again, grabbed the root of her thigh, and lifted it up suddenly.

Bao Ning screamed in surprise, and then opened her eyes, and found that she was sitting on Pei Yuan's shoulders in an extremely awkward posture, with her legs hanging in front of his chest, and her fingers subconsciously grabbed his chin.

She rode on Pei Yuan's shoulders, like a very small child, being teased by her father to ride a big horse.

"If you keep pushing me like this, I'll throw you out?" Pei Yuan hissed, "Retract your claws."

Bao Ning was already confused. She did whatever Pei Yuan said, and changed to touching his skin with her fingertips.

Pei Yuan held her legs with both hands to keep balance and stood up steadily.

Bao Ning's vision suddenly widened. She now had a giant's perspective, taking in everything in the room. Looking down, Ah Huang and Xiao Yang were staring at her in surprise.

"I..." Baoning was a little scared, but wanted to laugh. Her depressed mood just now was gone. She touched Pei Yuan's face and couldn't help laughing: "What are you doing..."

"Didn't I do something wrong? I'm just trying to please you?" Pei Yuan slid his hand down and held her ankle. "Just enjoy it. This is the only time in your life. You are the first person who can ride on my head. Ji Baoning."

"I didn't force you..." Baoning pursed her lips. "Besides, I'm not very angry."

Pei Yuan said, "Hehe," "You know it in your heart."

Baoning laughed even more happily.

But Baoning didn't dare to torture him too much because she was worried about Pei Yuan's legs. She quickly asked to get off.

Pei Yuan didn't feel tired, but he felt a little embarrassed. He was still frowning until he had unloaded the cargo. His

action just now was purely impulsive. He couldn't bear to see Bao Ning looking so wronged, but he was too clumsy to say a few sweet words, so he could only resort to this last resort.

He was in no mood to care about the sheep. He blew out the light, lay down on the bed without washing his face or feet, and said coldly, "Go to sleep."

Bao Ning came to his side and asked tentatively, "Shall I give you a leg massage?"

"Can't you hear me sleeping?" Pei Yuan slapped the bed angrily, "You have to get up early tomorrow. If you dare to make a sound again, I will throw you out."

Bao Ning was used to his behavior and didn't care. He smiled and tucked the quilt for him, then lay down on the other side.

Pei Yuan seemed to be really tired. He fell asleep quickly and snored softly.

Baoning lay on her side, secretly pulling Pei Yuan's hair, thinking, there was something strange between them. They hadn't talked properly for a long time, and when they finally met, instead of being affectionate as others did, they had a quarrel.

But there were some advantages. The faint sense of alienation between them was gone, as if they had returned to the state in the courtyard. More importantly, she dared to tell him the truth.

And Pei Yuan was indeed changing little by little.

The next day, Baoning got up very early. She was familiar with the nanny in the kitchen, so she shamelessly borrowed a pot and made a sumptuous breakfast for Pei Yuan as a reward for his hard work these days.

Pei Yuan was still asleep, which was rare. The room was quiet. Baoning stared at his sleeping face for a while, and suddenly remembered something, and her heart skipped a beat.

Baoning quietly rolled up his sleeve and looked at the poison on his wrist.
