In the new house, candlelight flickers.
Chu Dichi stood in front of the bed, his face calm, his hands clenched tightly in his sleeves, all his emotions suppressed without a sound.
"I……"
Chu Li asked in a low voice, "Should someone prepare a room for you?"
"good."
His eyes swept across her bright red wedding dress, and he suppressed the coldness in his throat, "Leave the things here to me, and sleep well tonight."
The moment he left the new house and closed the door, the blue veins on the back of his hands almost burst out like dragons!
Red lantern.
Red curtain.
Red wedding dress.
Red happy character.
The man walked out with a wave of his sleeves, stepped down the stairs, strode out, and punched the wall in an empty place.
Bang!
With a loud bang, gravel flew everywhere and cracks appeared in the solid wall.
After a few punches, blood splattered everywhere, but he seemed to be completely unaware of the pain.
Get married!
Get married!
Marrying behind his back!
Qin Muyu knew that she was alive, Qin Muxue knew, King Xian knew, everyone knew, except him!
How dare you sit there and look at him with a blank face!
What a courage!
He rushed here from the imperial capital, traveling day and night for two days and two nights without a break, without even a sip of water on the way. When he arrived, he saw her in her wedding dress, with another man!
Damn it!
He wants to kill her!!
"Achi." Xiao Yexing walked over quickly. "I have already asked Qin Muyu about it. The two kids are just acting. You are an elder after all, so please be more lenient."
Chu Dichi slowly raised his cold eyes:
"I'm already very tolerant."
Isn’t it?
Otherwise, how could the lakeside cottage be built there?
"Xiao Yexing, keep your nephew under control and don't do this again!"
-
Chu Li couldn't sleep tonight.
She lay in bed, hugging the quilt, tossing and turning, unable to sleep. She kept looking towards the window and door with worry. The slightest sound outside would make her scalp tighten.
He knew she was still alive, so calm, as if she had become a different person.
In the past, he was very paranoid and violent.
Is he planning something bad?
Chu Li turned over. Chu Dichi was right next door, but she couldn't sleep. But if Chu Dichi broke in, she would be even more unable to sleep.
So, what does he want?
This is very painful.
She knew that his temper was not easily eradicated, but he didn't have any temper. This unconventional move made her uneasy.
What exactly does he want to do?
But tonight, Chu Li was not the only one who couldn't sleep. Li Zhifu, Cui Qianjin and others who were kneeling outside the lakeside cottage were in great pain.
My knees hurt and I dare not stand up.
It was cold at night and I dared not move.
He knelt in agony and suffering for a whole night, so that when the morning came, the people saw this scene and were panicked:
"What happened?"
"Why is the prefect kneeling outside...isn't that Miss Chu's lakeside cottage?"
"Could it be that Miss Chu has a great background?"
"Oh my god! There seem to be a lot of people in black standing inside..."
The door of the lakeside cottage was open. On the fifth and sixth days of the New Year, after returning from shopping for groceries, she walked straight ahead among the kneeling Magistrate Li and the officers and soldiers, entered the courtyard, and went to the kitchen to cook.
Chu Dichi had already stood up.
At this moment, he was sitting indifferently under a tree in the courtyard, holding a storybook in his hand.
"Is this the book she usually reads?"
Chuyi stood aside, lowering his head stiffly: "Yes."
"How's the food?"
"I dare not be careless about the food. Miss likes spicy food, so I prepare soup and snacks every day. They are all Jiangnan specialties. Miss likes them very much."
"Where does she usually go?"
"Yun...Yun Yao Theater."
Bang!
The script was suddenly closed, and Chuyi fell to her knees in fear. She was just a lowly slave who sold herself, not even as good as the common people with free status. How could she dare to lie in front of the Regent?
"My servant has spoken out of turn. Lord Regent, please spare my life! Please spare my life!"
At this time, the door of the main house opened.
Chu Dichi said in a high tone: "Xiao Jiu, your maidservant should behave well. I asked her to prepare some tea and snacks. Just be easy-going. She must kneel down and serve."
Chu Li had just woken up, and his eyes looked a little dark.
She didn't sleep well last night.
Because I was thinking about all sorts of things, I tossed and turned and finally fell into a drowsy sleep in the second half of the night. Even though I'm up now, I still feel a little groggy.
She rubbed her eyes and said, "Chuyi, you get up and serve me as before."
Chuyi's back was sweating and his voice was trembling:
"Your Excellencies are of noble status. It is a blessing for me to serve you. I have earned several lifetimes." She kowtowed respectfully and then dared to stand up and prepare tea.
"Didn't you sleep well last night?" Chu Dichi looked at him gently.
Somehow, Chu Li's heart tightened. She always felt that there was something deeper hidden in those gentle and calm dark eyes, but she didn't dare to look directly at them or delve deeper.
She knew his temper very well and knew what kind of person he was.
Gentleness is just his disguise.
"Uncle...if you have anything to say, why don't we sit down and talk it out?"
The man's eyes were dark.
talk?
What to talk about?
Talk about how he disturbed her life, whether to not welcome him or to drive him away?
A sharp anger flashed in his eyes, but he hid it calmly and smiled gently: "Say such polite words, I just came to see you, are you going to chase me away?"
