Xie Xianyu didn't even bother to open it. "I thought so. He can sit still because he's so confident of victory. Are you relieved now?"
Wanruo was surprised and took the wedding invitation to take a closer look. It turned out that Su Yan and Chen Qinghan were getting married!
The wedding is set for next month.
Wanruo quickly pulled his hand and said, "I want to go to Yangzhou to watch the ceremony!"
He pretended to be embarrassed: "I am afraid I will not have time to spare. The court is very busy right now."
"Then I'll go by myself."
His eyes darkened, and he said coldly, "The government is unstable right now, and there's unrest everywhere. If there are bad guys causing trouble again, how can I be at ease if you go out alone?"
Wanruo suddenly became angry: "So you can't go?"
He raised his eyebrows slightly, sat down calmly in the armchair, and spoke slowly: "It is a bit difficult, but it is not necessarily impossible."
She stared into his dark eyes, vaguely guessing that he was making a conditional offer to her, and gritted her teeth secretly: "So what do you want?"
His eyes were deep: "What do you think?"
She gritted her teeth, walked towards him, grabbed his collar, bent down to kiss his lips, kissed him twice, then looked up at him.
He glared at her: "Xu Wanruo, you should ask for help in a proper manner. If you treat me like this, I really can't do it."
“…”
She swallowed deeply and kissed him again. Her small hands, which were clutching his collar, slid down his chest very sensibly, touched the leather belt around his waist, and pulled it open.
His throat rolled, his breathing stagnated, and his lacquered eyes were filled with desire.
She suddenly had a bad idea, and she stopped deliberately and stood up: "I'm suddenly too lazy to go, so forget it."
Then he turned around and was about to leave.
His heart skipped a beat, and he grabbed her, held her down and kissed her fiercely.
She was becoming more and more arrogant, he should have dealt with her long ago!

Half a month later, Xie Xianyu took Wanruo and left Beijing for Yangzhou.
This time they took a boat all the way to the dock in Yangzhou. Wanruo had never been on a boat before, so she was very curious at first, wandering around the bow and stern of the boat.
But after sitting there for two days, I felt bored and simply lay down in the room to sleep.
Xie Xianyu thought it was quite interesting. He slept with her on the boat every day. It was rare for him to be with her in such peace and quiet. She had nowhere to hide even if she wanted to.
Wanruo regretted it so much. If she had known earlier, she should have taken a carriage and traveled by land!
After nearly half a month of slow journey, we finally arrived in Yangzhou.
"The boat is about to dock." Xie Xianyu helped Wanruo put on her clothes.
Wanruo leaned in his arms without opening her eyes. It was unclear whether she had no strength or just didn't want to pay attention to him.
He dressed her neatly, his eyes fell on the marks on her neck, and he considerately used powder to cover them for her.
Su Yan and the others will probably come to pick them up today.
"Are you hungry? Do you want to eat something?" His voice was gentle.
Her attitude is even better than when she was pregnant.
She ignored him, but he didn't get angry. He kissed her red cheeks and her contented lips.
After half an hour, the boat finally docked. He took her out, her legs still a little weak.
"You're finally here! I've been waiting for a long time." Su Yan stood at the dock and came towards me with a smile on his face.
Who else could the woman following him be but Chen Qinghan?
"Wanruo!" Chen Qinghan took two quick steps and came forward.
Wanruo let go of Xie Xianyu's hand, held her hand, and the anger in her heart dissipated completely.
"Have you been waiting long?"
"It hasn't been long." Chen Qinghan chuckled and shook his head. "I came here just to tell you the good news. I didn't expect you to come all the way here."
"How can I not come to your wedding?"
As Wanruo spoke, she glanced at the two men who were talking behind her, then lowered her head and asked Chen Qinghan in a low voice, "Why are you getting married so suddenly? I was shocked."
Chen Qinghan pursed her lips and smiled: "I didn't think about it myself."
"Um?"
Chen Qinghan looked at the people in the distance: "When he came to Yangzhou last year, I thought he was ridiculous. This time, he is an official in Yangzhou, and I am the shopkeeper of Jinshangtang. Unconsciously, it seems like we have really lived our lives again and started all over again."
Wan Ruo immediately said, "Then just think of it as living your life over again. Life is so long, why should there be only one way to live it?"
"He once asked me, if we wanted to start over, why couldn't I start over with him? Actually, I didn't know why, but I just felt that we had too many ties in the past, too many knots in our hearts, and I was always cowardly..."
Chen Qinghan's throat was slightly dry, and he looked up again, but with a little more determination: "But this time, I suddenly feel sorry for him. He has done so much for me and taken so many steps. Why can't I take one more step? Obviously..."
"Obviously I love him too."
So, she decided to be brave for once. They had already missed six days, and how many six days does a person have?
For the remaining few dozen days, she just wanted to love him well.
Wanruo's eyes were sore, and she reached out to hug her: "Qinghan."
Chen Qinghan also hugged her, a smile flashing in his watery eyes: "Wanruo, thank you."
Three days later, the prefect got married. The whole city of Yangzhou was celebrating, and the people of the city came out to see the bride.
The lively wedding procession stretched for half the street, with music and singing all the way.
