Liars always pay the price for their lies.
Both Zhu Xinning and Zhang Xiaoyu lied, and their "fake sisterhood" forced them to betray each other, so Jing Zhe forcibly took them home.
Jing Zhe was determined to vent the anger he had accumulated at the newspaper during the day, and Zhu Xinning and Zhang Xiaoyu, who had been brought home, were like deflated balloons, no longer daring to lie to Jing Zhe.
Of course, they can't be fooled.
As soon as he entered the house, Jing Zhe made it clear to them that it didn't matter whether relatives came or not. They had just finished eating, so didn't they want to eat something else?
Because of her lack of experience, Zhang Xiaoyu was stunned when she heard this. After Zhu Xinning explained it to her, she finally understood and her face turned completely red.
So, Jing Zhe didn't waste any more words, and the two women never dared to mention the matter of their relatives again. Perhaps in their view, it was unacceptable to talk about it.
But how could Jing Zhe let them off so easily?
They come when they want to, and don't come when they don't.
Looking at the two women's smooth, cherry-like lips, Jing Zhe grinned mischievously: "Treat them all as soon as they arrive!"
That night was not only sleepless, but also thrilling.
...
When Jing Zhe woke up the next day feeling refreshed, Zhu Xinning and Zhang Xiaoyu were clinging to him like octopuses, completely naked, which pleased Jing Zhe greatly.
By this time, the hour of Chen (7-9 AM) had passed, and the rising sun outside was casting warm sunlight through the window lattice into the room. The chirping of birds outside was incessant.
Compared to the previous two days, it's already late today. I wonder if Murong Xi is getting impatient.
However, since it was already late, Jing Zhe wasn't in a hurry. He smiled and patted the two women who were sleeping soundly, saying, "What time is it? Aren't you going to get up yet?"
"..."
His answer was the faint snoring of two women, and their eyelids twitching slightly.
Ha, still acting!
Jing Zhe grinned, and the next moment he reached out and yanked the blanket off completely, leaving Zhu Xinning and Zhang Xiaoyu completely naked. They couldn't keep up the act any longer and screamed, using one hand to cover their private parts and the other to cover themselves with the blanket.
He was still muttering to himself.
"What's wrong? It's so cold, why are you pulling off the covers?"
"That's right, my husband! What if you catch a cold!"
Perhaps still harboring resentment towards Jing Zhe for what he had done to them the night before, the two women took the opportunity to say a few words to him. Jing Zhe didn't mind, patted Zhu Xinning, and laughed, "Second sister, it's already high in the sky, you overslept!"
Zhu Xinning rolled her eyes at him and said with dissatisfaction, "It's you who set the sun high in the sky, who else is to blame?"
"..."
Jing Zhe was taken aback for a moment, then said, "Second sister, it's so late, why aren't you getting up to go to court?"
Upon hearing this, Zhu Xinning waved her hand, then lay back on her pillow, saying lazily, "Anyway, there's nothing to do, so I won't go to court today. I'm so sleepy, time for bed."
"All right."
Then Jing Zhe patted Zhang Xiaoyu and asked, "Xiaoyu, aren't you going to get up and go to Wenxiangju?"
Zhang Xiaoyu immediately shook her head and said, "Husband, Xiaoyu is exhausted and really doesn't want to move today. Anyway, Shi San is very capable and can manage on his own."
Upon hearing this, Jing Zhe exclaimed, "Good heavens! It's like these two women have conspired together. Are they both planning to give up on watching him?"
Still a little uneasy, she asked, "Are you two sure you're not getting up?"
Zhu Xinning and Zhang Xiaoyu seemed too tired to answer, burying their heads in the pillows and waving their hands.
"..."
Seeing this, Jing Zhe stopped paying attention to them, said "Then I'm going to the newspaper office," quickly put on his clothes, and ran out.
In his view, whether Zhu Xinning did it intentionally or she was just too tired to get out of bed, it provided him with an excellent opportunity that he had to seize!
...
When they heard the sound of the door closing outside the yard, Zhu Xinning and Zhang Xiaoyu, who had been lying on the bed and were so "tired" that they didn't want to say a word, opened their eyes.
"Second sister?"
"Um."
"Are we really just going to let my husband go like this?"
Zhu Xinning tilted her head and glanced at Zhang Xiaoyu: "Otherwise what?"
"But…"
Zhang Xiaoyu thought for a moment and then said, "But wouldn't all our efforts over the past two days have been wasted?"
In the past two days, Zhu Xinning and Zhang Xiaoyu have been on high alert, using various schemes to bring Yu Xiangrong and Su Mochen into the picture. The results were quite good, at least preventing Murong Xi from seizing any opportunities.
If we don't get up today, all our previous efforts will have been wasted.
Zhu Xinning lay on her back, lazily saying, "Anyway, Second Sister can't do it. If Xiaoyu can, Xiaoyu can get up!"
"Ah... I... I can't do it either!"
Zhang Xiaoyu thought for a moment and then quickly said.
Her body hadn't fully recovered from last night's attack, or even if it had, it couldn't withstand Jing Zhe's rapid and sustained assault. So after last night, her body felt like it was falling apart; she didn't even want to get out of bed, let alone go outside.
Zhu Xinning's reaction was similar to Zhang Xiaoyu's, or even worse. After all, she had been alone the night before. At this moment, she couldn't help but scold Zhang Xiaoyu, saying, "Xiaoyu, it's all your fault!"
"Why blame me, Second Sister?"
"You've already had a day off, why can't I have a day off too?"
"Then you can't expose me!"
Zhu Xinning knew she was in the wrong, but she still pouted and said, "Xiaoyu, although it was wrong of Second Sister to expose you, didn't you expose me too? We're even..."
"If you don't expose me, why should I expose you?"
"I exposed you precisely because I knew you would expose me!"
"..."
This rebuttal left Zhang Xiaoyu speechless.
At this moment, Zhang Xiaoyu came up to her and said ingratiatingly, "Second sister, what's done is done, there's no use in saying anything more, let's talk about what happened next!"
Zhu Xin added, "We're both willing but unable to do anything right now; even if we wanted to, we couldn't..."
"So the only thing we can do now is to trust my husband?"
Seeing Zhang Xiaoyu's innocent look, Zhu Xinning opened her mouth, then said, "If we believe him, we can just wait at home for him to come back and bring the person back!"
"..."
At this moment, Zhu Xinning added, "There are many people and eyes in Wenxiang Residence, and the Holy Maiden is there too. They probably wouldn't dare to do anything. Even if something happens, they'll report it to the newspaper. However, Mo Chen will probably report it to the newspaper as well, so there's no need to worry."
Zhang Xiaoyu echoed, "Then we can only rely on His Highness Mo Chen!"
Zhu Xinning nodded, then suddenly said softly, "Actually, now that I think about it, if Empress Yueyao were to share some of the burden with us, it wouldn't be such a big deal..."
"..."
