What's more troublesome is the other party's identity. He had just formed an alliance with the Sang family, so he could let bygones be bygones regarding his relationship with Zheng Dan, since the two of them had been together first, and the Sang family seemed to have tacitly approved of it.
But now that something like this has happened, not only has he taken someone's daughter-in-law, but now he's even ruined their daughter. Zu'an thinks that if he were in that situation, he would probably be furious.
Just as he was wondering how to end this, Sang Qian's voice, feigning calmness, came from behind him: "Alright, you can turn around now."
Zuan turned around and found that the other person was dressed and was as charming and lovely as ever, except that her hair was messy and her face still had a trace of the aftermath of a storm, making her even more pitiful.
"What happened today was just an accident. Only heaven, earth, you, and I know. After we leave this room, no one is allowed to mention it again, understand?" Sang Qian said calmly with her head down, avoiding the other person's gaze.
She knew her father's plan, but she simply couldn't bring herself to fully cooperate and use her body as a bargaining chip.
Furthermore, she still harbored some resentment towards her father, making it even more imperative to prevent him from getting his way.
Zuan was taken aback: "That's not fair to you. I'm not the kind of irresponsible person..."
Although there was no romantic feeling between them, he knew the importance of female chastity in this world. After what had happened, he couldn't just walk away like that.
Sang Qian interrupted him directly: "I don't need you to take responsibility."
After she finished speaking, she walked straight out, but as soon as she took a step, she stumbled and almost fell.
Zu An rushed to support her: "What's wrong?"
Sang Qian pushed him away. How dare this guy ask?
My sister-in-law usually looks so delicate and gentle, I don't know how she could stand this beast.
Anger from Sang Qian: +313 +313 +313...
She glared at him fiercely, then limped away.
Watching her disappearing figure, Zu An felt a bit of a headache. What kind of mess was this?
"By the way, where is Dandan?" Zu'an was startled and was about to look for her when he saw Zheng Dan rushing towards them from another direction.
Just as he was about to call out, he suddenly remembered something, hurriedly returned to the room, and simply tucked all the messy sheets into the glass bead.
At this moment, Zheng Dan also arrived and was startled when he saw Zu An: "What are you doing here? It will be troublesome if the people of the manor see you."
Zu'an stared intently into her eyes: "Why aren't you inside? Where did you go last night?"
He even suspected that Zheng Dan was behind it all, that she wanted to drag her sister-in-law into it so that things would be much easier for her in the future. Given her past behavior, she was certainly capable of doing such a thing.
Zheng Dan touched his head: "I guess I drank too much yesterday. I actually went to Xiaoqian's room and fell asleep. Oh, by the way, have you seen Xiaoqian? I didn't see her when I woke up."
"No," Zu'an said somewhat awkwardly. Since Sang Qian didn't want this matter to be exposed, he would respect her wishes.
He had just carefully observed Zheng Dan's expression, and it didn't seem like she was lying. He also realized that the Sang family now almost tacitly approved of their relationship, so she naturally didn't need to take such a risk. Could last night really have been a beautiful mistake?
"Go back quickly, the servants need to get up." While he was still thinking, Zheng Dan pushed him away, because it was getting late, and it would be troublesome if others saw him in his room.
After Zu An left, Zheng Dan was about to go back to sleep, but staring blankly at the empty bed, he wondered, "Where did the sheets go?"
Meanwhile, Zuan went back to his room and then pretended to get up, feeling guilty. He happened to run into Sang Hong, who was doing his morning exercise.
"Did you sleep well last night?" Sang Hong asked with a smile.
"It's...it's pretty good." Zu An's eyes darted around.
"That's good. I was worried that I hadn't treated you well," Sang Hong said with a smile.
“Very thoughtful…” Zu An thought it was even a little too thoughtful. He couldn’t see anything unusual in the other party’s expression, and he became more and more uneasy.
"Let's have breakfast together," Sang Hong said, abandoning his martial arts stance.
"No need, I just remembered there's something important I haven't taken care of at home." Zu An felt very guilty. He had just messed with someone's daughter, so he was too embarrassed to stay any longer and quickly made up an excuse to leave.
Seeing his disheveled escape, Sang Hong couldn't help but smile. This guy finally had a day like this.
After Zu An had walked away, Aunt Mu came over from the side and said, "Master, why don't we take this opportunity to demand a formal title from him?"
