Chapter 9: Come to the Boudoir to Take Care of Me
"My sister-in-law and the child in your belly are both my relatives. Now that my brother is gone, I have to take care of them."
When Qin Mingzhu heard this, the smile on her face became even brighter.
She suddenly lowered her voice and said, "Would the governor like to come to my boudoir and take care of me?"
As soon as these words were spoken, Qin Mingzhu saw with her own eyes that Yan Fengxiao's jade-like cheeks had actually become a little more rosy.
Even the tips of her ears were tinged with crimson.
In his two lives, this was the first time that Qin Mingzhu had spoken such unrestrained words.
Or it was used on someone she had never thought of.
The effect is excellent.
Faced with such verbal provocation, even Yan Fengxiao, with his best composure, could not hold back at this moment.
The man raised his eyes and stared at Qin Mingzhu.
It was as if he had just met the woman in front of him.
Qin Mingzhu was not panicked at all. She didn't care what Yan Fengxiao was thinking. She just found it interesting.
After all, there is still a little bit of pleasure in taking revenge on the other party.
After all, this bastard had hidden the fact that Yun Yu was her biological son from her for her entire life!
She is a mother. If she hadn't had no time to get angry in her previous life, she would have been angered to death by this man!
This man must have been born in the year of the clam in his previous life.
The corners of Yan Fengxiao's lips moved slightly, as if he took a deep breath.
"When my sister-in-law invites me, I dare not refuse."
Qin Mingzhu: “…”
Now it was her turn to be stunned.
The more daring you were in teasing others just now, the faster the retribution is coming.
She only felt a surge of heat rising from her heart and rushing straight to her head, and her heartbeat quickened a lot.
Qin Mingzhu opened her mouth and wanted to say something, but her mind was in a mess and she didn't know where to start.
The key point is that Yan Fengxiao, who said this, had a serious expression on his face, without any of the slickness of a lecher. His face really looked upright and dignified.
After a long while, Qin Mingzhu held her forehead with her hand in embarrassment: "Um... I was just a little confused just now, and I said some nonsense. I'm sorry to have embarrassed the governor."
Yan Fengxiao said, "It's nothing. If you need anything, you can come to me."
He suddenly touched his waist.
When Qin Mingzhu saw his actions, her expression stiffened for a moment, and her eyes became dazed.
No, no, what is he going to do?
The door is still open, in front of everyone, how disrespectful!
She subconsciously grabbed her collar, and then saw Yan Fengxiao take off a token hanging from his waist and put it on the coffee table.
"With this token, you can enter and exit the Governor's Mansion at will. Even if I'm not in the mansion, there will be someone to help my sister-in-law solve the problem."
The token was pitch black, with the golden word "Yan" shining brightly.
Qin Mingzhu naturally knew the value of this token, which represented Yan Fengxiao's identity.
As the first-rank governor of the current dynasty, Yan Fengxiao's status and position are among the best in the entire Southern Yan Kingdom.
What's more, he is now a favorite of the emperor. He has both status and position. Qin Mingzhu really doesn't know what is there to hide about such a person.
What she just said revealed a lot.
She was telling the other person that she had doubts about the relationship between the baby in her belly and him.
If Yan Fengxiao understood what she meant, even if he didn't admit it directly, he should at least show something.
Indeed, he directly gave her a token to facilitate her search for him.
But there is no intention of directly acknowledging the relationship.
Qin Mingzhu didn't believe that Yan Fengxiao was the kind of person who was afraid of violating moral principles. If he was afraid, this man wouldn't dare to do such a thing.
Surely there must be some additional reason.
Qin Mingzhu was silent for a long time, then looked at the token and nodded.
"I'll take the token."
Yan Fengxiao seemed to be relieved.
His eyes became especially gentle, and there was more warmth in his voice.
"Um."
Qin Mingzhu stood up with the help of a chair, as if to take the token.
But somehow, just after she took a few steps, her waist seemed to be hit by the corner of the table beside her. Qin Mingzhu's eyes showed panic, she let out a scream, and even her body was a little unstable.
She was already heavy, and after losing her balance, her body fell to one side and was about to fall to the ground.
Just this moment.
Yan Fengxiao's body reacted even faster than his brain and came to Qin Mingzhu's side, hugging her around the waist.
"careful!"
The scent of the man lingered at the tip of Qin Mingzhu's nose. Qin Mingzhu smelled this very familiar smell and was certain of everything.
If we say that before it was just suspicion and speculation, and there was still a 10% uncertainty, then now it seems that this 10% no longer exists.
On the wedding night, the man in her bed was Yan Fengxiao!
In her previous life, she was so busy avoiding him that she never got so close.
The faint fragrance on the man can only be smelled when you are very close to him.
This was all thanks to the fact that her family ran a spice shop, and the skill of identifying scents that she learned from her mother since childhood came in handy.
Yan Fengxiao held her waist with one hand and locked her arm tightly with the other.
His grip was very strong, and it seemed that he was in a panic and had not been able to control the strength well.
Qin Mingzhu frowned slightly and calmly pushed Yan Fengxiao with her hand, her posture quite restrained and reserved.
It was as if the teasing words from before did not come from her mouth.
"Thank you for saving me, Governor. It's all my fault for being too careless."
Yan Fengxiao didn't want to let go, as the emotions in his eyes were already accumulating and seemed ready to overflow at any moment.
"I'll help you."
“No need.”
Qin Mingzhu used a little force to pull Yan Fengxiao's wrist apart.
"My husband just passed away. If outsiders saw me, they would think I had something going on with the governor, which would have tarnished his reputation."
Yan Fengxiao: “…”
He sensed the strong resentment in the words of the woman in front of him.
Qin Mingzhu's words today really made him feel a little overwhelmed.
Yan Fengxiao's eyes flickered for a moment, and he glanced sideways at the entrance of the living room.
Occasionally, a few servants from the Marquis' Mansion would pass by the door.
If he stayed close to Qin Mingzhu for a long time, gossip would inevitably spread in the huge mansion.
A woman who has just lost her husband will inevitably be swept by more malice. Any inappropriateness will be deliberately magnified, and those stigmas will be like leeches attached to the bones, making her restless in the future.
Closing the door is absolutely not an option. A single man and a single woman in the same room would only make it more obvious and would attract criticism.
Yan Fengxiao exerted a little force with his fingers, and while no one was passing by, he suddenly pulled Qin Mingzhu closer to him.
His eyes were slightly complicated, and he lowered his voice and said slowly in her ear: "How did you know?"
Obviously, Yan Fengxiao was certain that Qin Mingzhu knew something, so he took this opportunity to question him.
The box was definitely dropped by Qin Mingzhu on purpose, with the purpose of luring away Old Madam Yan and taking this opportunity to talk to him alone.
This is also a very rare meeting.
