Waterside Residence.
"Did you tell your mother about my absence last night?" The man's tone was not one of questioning but of affirmative sarcasm.
Li Nian looked at the man who was casually leaning on the couch, his long legs lazily crossed, his face was as handsome as a jade, but he had a pair of cold eyes like stars, and he looked arrogant and evil.
She knew that this man did it on purpose. He made such a big noise last night. Who in the mansion didn't know that he had been out of the house all night and had not returned?
Li Nian's calm gaze met the man's mocking eyes. He smiled faintly and said helplessly, "If you think so, I can't help it."
Xiao Yunyu did it on purpose, but the woman's answer was beyond his expectations. She was not angry?
He raised his eyebrows, a playful smile on his lips, and beckoned his finger towards Li Nian: "Come here."
Although she really didn't like his condescending attitude, Li Nian still walked over obediently when she thought that she still wanted to win him over.
Xiao Yunyu tapped the table twice: "Pour tea."
Li Nian's lips were tightly bound together, she suppressed her unhappiness and obediently poured tea for him.
So obedient...
Thinking that she had ruined her own reputation just to marry him, he felt extremely angry.
He chuckled and said slowly, "Since you've married me, you must abide by my rules. You must do whatever I tell you to do, and you are not allowed to disobey me. Do you hear me?"
"Master, the third young master of the Lin family is here." Just as the servant outside the door finished speaking, the third young master Lin's carefree voice was heard.
"Brother Yu, I heard that Miss Furong from the Flower Pavilion will be getting married in a few days, so I specially booked a room for a dinner party. Would you like to go and join in the fun?"
Young Master Lin San strode into the room. When he saw Li Nian, he was stunned and hurriedly explained: "Sister-in-law is here too. I'm sorry, I was just joking..."
Xiao Yunyu frowned, feeling unhappy that Mr. Lin San called her "sister-in-law".
He glanced at Li Nian, who lowered her brows and looked softly, and suddenly an idea came to his mind. He raised his eyelids and looked at Mr. Lin San, saying in a lazy voice, "Just say whatever you want to say. Don't worry about her."
It goes without saying who this "she" is.
Lin Yuanxiu glanced at Li Nian in surprise. Seeing that she was calm and didn't look angry or aggrieved at all, he couldn't help but guess that this Miss Yun was no ordinary girl. She didn't show her emotions on her face. She was really amazing.
Li Nian didn't sleep well last night. He lowered his head and listened to the two talking about drinking and prostitution. He was so drowsy that he could hardly open his eyes.
"Okay, Brother Yu, then it's settled. You must be there at that time. I'll take my leave first." Seeing that his goal was achieved, Young Master Lin San happily said goodbye and left.
Xiao Yunyu looked at the woman next to him who was keeping her head down and not saying a word, and raised his eyebrows slightly. She was a sensible woman who knew not to interrupt when a man was talking.
"Yun Qiuwu."
Someone who was dozing off heard someone calling, raised his head in a daze, and looked blankly in the direction where Xiao Yunyu was sitting, and found that he seemed to be the only one left in the room?
Where's his friend? When did he leave? How come she doesn't know?
"What's wrong, husband?" The sleepy person's brain was a little slow to react. He blinked and asked belatedly, "Are you guys done talking? I'll go back to my room and rest first."
No, no, she was really sleepy and had to go back to her room for a nap.
Xiao Yunyu frowned when he saw that she was obviously still asleep. It turned out that she was not being well behaved but was actually asleep?
He felt inexplicably unhappy: "Were you dozing off just now?"
Li Nian was shocked. Would this bastard find another excuse to cause trouble for her?
Li Nian stared with almond-shaped eyes and answered firmly: "No!"
After she finished speaking, her body instinctively made her yawn very naturally...
Li Nian: ...awkward!
"I didn't doze off just now, but I'm a little sleepy now, husband. I'll go back to my room and rest first."
Xiao Yunyu stared at her leaving back, doubts rising in his heart.
Before this woman got married, she would flirt with him whenever she got the chance, acting like she was totally infatuated with him. Now, she doesn't even care if he goes out for drinks?
Or is it that now that her plan has succeeded, she has stopped pretending?
————
In the blink of an eye, it was time to return home after three days.
At the gate of the Marquis's Mansion, two carriages set off at the same time.
Yun Qiuwu's family was only a fourth-rank official, and Yun Qiuwu was a concubine.
Logically speaking, her status is not worthy of Xiao Yunyu, the eldest son of a marquisate.
But the original owner was so bold! He framed Xiao Yunyu and made others think they were having an affair.
Xiao Yunyu was born to the original wife of the Marquis, so his stepmother would definitely disgust him when she got such a good opportunity.
So it was decided that Xiao Yunyu would be responsible for Yun Qiuwu and marry her as his legal wife.
Li Nian and Xiao Yunyu met their father and the eldest lady together, and then were allowed to visit their biological mother.
Xiao Yunyu stayed and chatted with Lord Yun.
"Fourth sister, please stay." Halfway to the backyard, a girl in a goose yellow brocade skirt appeared out of nowhere.
Li Nian paused and turned to look at the person who came: "Fifth sister, is there anything wrong?"
"It's not a big deal. I just heard an interesting story recently and wanted to ask Fourth Sister whether it's true or not." Yun Shutong is only thirteen years old now, not even an adult yet, and still has a bit of baby fat on her face. She looks innocent and cute when she smiles.
The book does not describe much about the family background of this vicious female supporting character, and the girls of the Yun family are just background characters.
Li Nian could only extract some important information from the original owner's memory.
