Chapter 158



For Xie Wan Ning, her own marriage was very hasty, but it was not the case that she just looked from afar and saw the other party killing a beast, and then directly accepted the other party's goodwill without even saying a few words.

But Pei Yuqing's expression was calm and her tone was indifferent when she heard this. "If you really marry the wrong person, then you don't have to worry about it. It would be good if the couple can live in harmony after marriage. If not, you can divorce. Xuan'er has her own princess's mansion. She can keep the servants she likes as long as she is happy. No one can control her."

As he said this, he smiled again, "Your brother is really kind-hearted."

Xie Wan Ning was speechless.

I always feel like he's onto something.

So she really heard what her brother said?

After pondering his words, Xie Wan Ning's expression gradually became strange. Seeing the look in his eyes, she couldn't hide her envy and said, "I said you are indeed a very good brother. If it were me, my brother wouldn't allow me..."

She stammered while speaking, but Pei Yuqing was stunned and his expression straightened.

"What are you going to say?" His eyes turned cold and locked onto her tightly, "Quickly stop thinking about this, you can't even think about it!"

Xie Wan Ning: “…”

She pursed her lips, feeling somewhat speechless.

How rare it is to see him change his expression in an instant.

The more he thought about it, the more he felt unconvinced. He muttered quietly, "Your sister can do it, but I can't even think about it. Why?"

Isn't she just a princess? She is also a noble lady in a marquis's mansion. There are also cases in the capital where noble ladies divorced, took their dowries, set up a household, and lived behind closed doors with a few male favorites.

She was actually just being argumentative, but Pei Yuqing, who knew people's minds well, couldn't see that at all and completely lost her usual composure.

Hearing her mumbling, his gentle and handsome face instantly turned a little frosty, and his voice became even colder: "If Wanwan wants Pipa to leave, then even if you pour out all the water in the moat, it will not be able to wash away your hatred as a husband."

Xie Wan Ning knew how deep this man's thoughts were and how many ways he acted, but she had never seen him so cold and stern. Her heart started pounding when she heard his words, and she didn't know what to say for a moment.

When I came in the morning, the couple was so sweet that they wanted to stick together, but now, as they were talking, the atmosphere became cold again.

In fact, Pei Yuqing felt a little regretful as soon as he said this.

Because of his heart disease, his character has been far superior to that of his peers since he was a child. No matter who he is in front of, he has never been so emotional that he says something wrong.

Only this girl made his mood fluctuate violently time and again, and he worried about gains and losses, and looked ahead and behind.

Even in his dreams he wanted to hold the person in his arms, and the possessiveness was so great that he himself dared not think about it too deeply.

The inner demon gradually grows.

The car was silent for a while. This time, Pei Yuqing couldn't help himself and reached out to hold her hand.

"Wanwan," his voice returned to its usual gentleness, his tone was gentle, "I am your husband, how can you reveal your intention to divorce and keep a male lover in front of me."

"..." Xie Wan Ning was silent for a moment, thinking that this person was really good at changing his face. He was so fierce just now, and now...

She snorted softly, "You said it first, I...I just thought about it."

Pei Yuqing curved her eyebrows and coaxed, "It's my fault. I said the wrong thing."

As he spoke, he stood up and sat over, put his arm around her shoulders, and said gently, "We are married as husband and wife, no one is allowed to think about it, and no one is allowed to mention divorce, okay?"

Xie Wan Ning didn't say yes or no, but leaned her head on his shoulder, thought for a long time, and then said: "I dare not promise you, because you will lie to me."

Pei Yuqing smiled bitterly, "I will never lie to you again, really."

"Then we'll talk about it later."

Xie Wan Ning could no longer believe him wholeheartedly. She said a few perfunctory words, and fearing that he would continue to pester her for a promise, she quickly changed the subject and brought up what she had encountered in the peach blossom forest today.

After she finished telling him what happened today, she asked her extremely smart husband, "Do you think they suspected that it was me..."

Before she could finish her words, a hand suddenly appeared on her chin. Then, their eyes met. The man's handsome face was right in front of her. His beautiful eyes were as deep as ink, and they were full of her...

Xie Wan Ning's heart skipped a beat, and then she heard him say, "You said, Brother Ji helped you out?"

She was stunned and was about to nod, but his grip on her chin was so tight that she could only hum softly.

Then, the man in front of him had a rolling Adam's apple and a slightly hoarse voice, "How did you solve it?"

Just now she simply described what happened, without describing the details in detail. After all, this person is also a jealous person...

But I didn't expect him to be so sensitive and able to grasp such a key point in such concise words.

Look what he asked...

Xie Wan Ning was helpless, so she lowered her eyes and wondered whether she should tell a lie, but the fingertips on her jaw suddenly loosened their force.

"Be good, Wanwan." His voice became even more hoarse. "Look into my eyes and say that."

Her chin was held and she was forced to look him in the eye. This feeling was actually not very comfortable. Xie Wan Ning pursed her lips and said, "The situation was urgent at the time. In order not to be discovered by them..."

She paused here, not knowing whether her expression had changed, but her throat did unconsciously become dry as she spoke under his gaze.

Pei Yuqing waited very patiently, and even bent down to kiss her forehead.

When the warm lips fell, Xie Wan Ning said, "We hid behind the rockery."

Pei Yuqing didn't say anything. After a few breaths, he hummed softly, but there was no clue at all.
