Xie Wan Ning didn't dare to think too deeply about how deep this person's thoughts were.
They had just been embracing each other intimately last night, and the next day when he saw the teeth marks on her neck, he was able to make such a plan.
Can she afford a person like this?
She was still meditating, but the man opposite her had already cast his gaze from her eyebrows to her slightly red lips, slowly moving down bit by bit, and finally stopping at the jade pendant on her waist.
She had never worn this jet-black jade before...
Noticing his gaze, Xie Wan Ning lowered her eyes to look at her waist, frowning slightly.
Pei Yuqing retracted his gaze, raised his hand to refill her ginseng tea, and said: "The city gate is closed, we will stay at the hot spring villa tonight."
"You!" Xie Wan Ning was furious when she saw that he was doing well. "You are plotting against me like this, don't you have anything to say to me?"
"I didn't think it through carefully enough. I'm sorry." His fingertips trembled slightly, and he asked, "Did he scare you?"
"..." Xie Wan Ning looked at him deeply, lowered her eyes weakly, and stopped talking.
She found that no matter whether it was between them or between her and Lu Ziyan, she couldn't win.
As for Pei Yuqing, she was not as patient as him, nor did she have his thoughts and means.
He did such a wrong thing and was discovered by her, but he still had to wait for her to question him.
She is always the one whose emotions fluctuate. He is the best at forbearance, and she can never see through his heart.
The emotions he showed were only those he was willing for her to see.
He keeps his true thoughts hidden.
Lu Ziyan is even more amazing. He doesn't play dirty tricks. He relies on his own strength to break all the laws. As long as you recognize your own heart and know what you want, you can let others calculate the rest.
She couldn't outsmart Pei Yuqing in terms of wit, and she couldn't be tougher than Lu Ziyan.
At this point, she really regretted getting married in such a hurry.
This kind of scheming man is truly the rarest of creatures.
Xie Wan Ning was not even sure whether Pei Yuqing was truly sincere towards her.
The carriage fell silent.
The two sat opposite each other, but no one took the initiative to speak.
Until the carriage drove into the hot spring villa and stopped.
Xie Wan Ning was just about to bend down to get out of the car when she felt a weight on her shoulders, a dark blue cloak covering her. She glanced sideways at the man who still had his hand on her shoulder.
Pei Yuqing said gently: "You can't catch a cold, don't get angry with me first."
The two men got off the carriage one after another.
This is the place where the two of them fell in love. Next door is the Xie family's villa. Those scenes are still vivid in my mind...
The main courtyard was brightly lit, and the servants were kneeling on the ground.
Xie Wan Ning was not unfamiliar with this courtyard, but she had only been here drinking tea and chatting that day and had never stayed there.
When she came again, she was already the hostess.
Pei Yuqing took off her cloak and said, "Go take a bath first to cool off the coldness in your body."
The bathroom next to the master bedroom is an artificial hot spring bath room, which the maids had already prepared.
Xie Wan Ning had no intention of being hard on her body and walked straight inside.
The hot spring pool was filled with steam, and there was a hint of medicine in it.
She glanced at the maids and asked, "Does he usually do this?"
"Your bath only contains a few health-preserving herbs, but the prince's bath is different," the maid explained, "The prince's bath is a prescription personally prescribed by several imperial doctors to treat heart disease."
Heart disease...
Xie Wan Ning pursed her lips and entered the hot spring, thinking to herself that he was full of tricks and thought too much, so it was only right that he had a heart disease.
In the cold winter, soaking in the hot spring, the chill that penetrated into the bone marrow was dispelled bit by bit. When I was drowsy, the maid reminded me not to stay too long.
When she returned to the bedroom and saw the man in pajamas sitting on the bed, Xie Wan Ning's sleepiness disappeared and she stopped three feet away.
Although they were living separately before arriving at the Duke of Pei's mansion, since they had consummated their marriage last night, it stands to reason that they should sleep in the same bed from now on...
But after so many things happened today, Xie Wan Ning did feel alienated and was no longer willing to share a bed with such a thoughtful man.
She clenched her fingers slowly, "Go sleep somewhere else."
The man on the couch paused for a moment, turned his head and looked over. Seeing that she was hesitant and unwilling to approach, he lowered his eyes and said, "There are no guest rooms in the hot spring villa."
It was originally his private property and no one else had ever come here, so why would he prepare a guest bedroom for it?
Xie Wan Ning pursed her lips and stood there, "Then I'll go back to my manor and sleep."
After she finished speaking, she turned around and tried to leave. Before she took two steps, her wrist was grabbed by the person behind her. Then her waist felt tighter and she felt dizzy. When she came to her senses, she was already carried to the couch.
Touching her eyes that were dyed red with anger with his fingertips, Pei Yuqing said softly: "The Xie family's villa has not had an owner for a long time. You went there so suddenly, and the servants were not prepared in advance. It will take a long time to clean up."
Xie Wan Ning knew that what he said was indeed reasonable.
What he didn't say was that she was a married girl, and if she went to knock on the door in the middle of the night to check in, her parents would definitely hear about it...
"Don't be angry, okay?" His voice remained gentle: "I was wrong this time. I was just too scared..."
No one has ever told him that liking someone will make him feel inferior.
The more I like someone, the more inferior I feel.
The more you have, the more afraid you are.
He was eleven years older than her, and that was a fact he could not change no matter how hard he tried.
He was afraid that she would change her mind, afraid that she would regret marrying him, he was afraid of too much...
As a result, he made many stupid moves.
If Xie Wan Ning had heard him say this in the past, she would have been heartbroken, but now, after being deceived and used by him time and time again, she was no longer moved.
