Meng Qi understood that Song Chengze wasn't strong enough. Humph, these short-sighted people, she hoped Song Chengze wouldn't rush to deal with them, and wait until he succeeded in his great cause, then let them see how refreshing it would be.
"what else?"
Meng Qi looked at the visibly dejected Song Chengze and knew she couldn't say any more, especially about Xiao Lin's matter. "That's all for now. Since I don't have to worry about Li Mancang, I'll try to quickly investigate the woman he contacted. If you can get him to confess through questioning, please don't worry. Just tell me first, okay?"
Song Chengze nodded, "I know what you mean." After saying that, he looked up at Meng Qi with a very focused look. Meng Qi met his gaze, and she clearly saw approval, affirmation and reassurance in his eyes.
That’s right, it’s about being at ease, rather than the exploration and questioning that they had when they first started getting along.
Song Chengze slowly approached her, looking at the girl in front of him with eyes wide open, this "wife" who had given him so many surprises and joys. It was obvious that the girl was a little nervous about his approach. She wanted to lean back but was afraid of showing her fear. Her face was slightly red, and she looked at him with bright eyes.
"You're right. Human hearts are unpredictable. In this world, even we ourselves can't be sure whether we will betray each other, let alone others. From today on, all matters in the mansion will be handed over to you. I will focus all my energy on the palace and them. I will tell Song Lu and Zhang Decheng that you can go to the outer courtyard without affecting your arrangements."
Meng Qi was filled with ecstasy. Being able to freely access the outer courtyard meant she had already stepped into Song Chengze's most secretive circle. As for when she could take the other step, it depended on her performance. But she was confident that it wouldn't be long before she could achieve it, even participating in Song Chengze's meetings.
Thinking of this, a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, and her eyes were filled with joy. Song Chengze's brows, which had just been slightly frowned, were infected by her mood, and the slightly bad mood he had been in earlier seemed to be instantly smoothed out by her smile.
Seeing the strand of hair falling on Meng Qi's cheek, Song Chengze did what he had wanted to do last time. He reached out and picked up the strand of hair, gently tucking it behind Meng Qi's ear.
Meng Qi's face, which had just been smiling, suddenly tensed up. She stood there obediently, as if facing a formidable enemy. It wasn't until Song Chengze pinned her hair that she felt her heartbeat return to normal.
Song Chengze put his hand behind his back and held it tightly, as if there was still the warmth from when he accidentally touched her ear just now.
Song Chengze turned and walked to the window. The warm late summer breeze blew into the room, bringing with it the coolness of the nearby pond. What was wrong with him? Such a small action seemed like a huge decision. Even if they had agreed not to be a real couple, the brother's concern for his sister was not excessive.
Song Chengze placed his hand on the window frame. Was it because he was too busy recently, and the matters he had to deal with were extremely energy-consuming, leaving him no time to go to the inner house, and he felt depressed for too long?
Thinking about this, Song Chengze suddenly realized that he hadn't been close to a woman since marrying Meng Qi. Has it been that long? Although he advocated for health preservation and was very restrained and not greedy in matters of sex, this was the first time he had experienced sex in such a long time.
Song Chengze looked up at the bright moonlight outside and it seemed that he needed to relax.
Meng Qi looked at Song Chengze's back. This guy just stood there after doing her hair. She didn't know what he was thinking and he didn't talk to her. The atmosphere in the room was very weird, and she couldn't say she wanted to leave at this time.
There was nothing she could do. She could only stand there and watch Song Chengze sigh and turn around, "Then let's get started."
"Start? Where to start?"
"Prince Duan, since his princess is so active, then let him have his wish."
"Did you start from the palace, the Hanyuan last time?" Meng Qi asked in surprise.
Song Chengze wasn't surprised by Meng Qi's reaction; she was truly too clever. "Yes, Mother has found the old maid named Lan Xin. If everything is planned correctly, I think we can start this first month. Of course, we must strike with one strike. Time and opportunity don't allow us to fail. Perhaps you'll be needed to handle the situation then."
Meng Qi nodded, "Don't worry, what about Prince Jing and Prince Cheng?"
"Prince Cheng needs to wait for Uncle Lu to come back and check on Wu Zhengda. Prince Jing is not easy to deal with. He is a slippery one. I mean to put him last."
"Is this your idea or the prince's?" Meng Qi asked in a low voice.
