Chapter 210
The two hadn't seen each other for several days, which was a short separation, so their time together was naturally extra tender.
Shen Rang felt guilty, and although he was as unforgiving as ever that night, his actions were gentle and tender.
After that, Shen Rang never left the gate of Ji Bai Ju again.
Their relationship wasn't just about sex; their connection extended beyond just their bodies to their souls.
With nothing to do, they would brew tea and admire flowers. Shen Rang would play the zither to add to the fun. Yun Xi saw this and wanted to learn as well. Then, she used the priceless Cong Qingjue zither to play the most primitive sound of sawing wood.
This made Shen Rang laugh out loud.
Seeing Chen Rang laughing so hard his body was shaking, Yun Xi stopped awkwardly: "Zi Rong, is it a problem with the zither?"
Jingyuan, who was standing to the side, rubbed his ears while inwardly complaining.
This Qingjue Guqin is the one that Shen Rang has always used. He has played countless beautiful sounds on it. Moreover, just now, Shen Rang played a piece called "Yangchun Baixue" on this guqin. How could it break down in the blink of an eye?
Unexpectedly, Shen Rang actually nodded in agreement: "Yes, it's a problem with the zither. Let's not play it anymore, let's play something else."
After saying that, Shen Rang got up with Yun Xi and went to play chess.
Jingyuan stepped forward to put away the zither, his gaze extremely complicated.
If he were that instrument, he would be so wronged.
The two chatted and laughed behind closed doors at Jibai Residence, but to outsiders, there wasn't much a man and a woman could do together in one room.
Sure enough, before dawn that day, someone knocked on the door of the warm pavilion: "Auntie, Zhou Mama is here and invites you to Rongxi Hall."
Inside the house, Shen Rang woke up as soon as he heard the noise. He glanced at Yun Xi, who was sleeping soundly in his arms, but in the end, he couldn't bear to disturb her. Instead, he got up, dressed, and went out.
As expected, Madam Zhou was in the courtyard. When she saw the door of the warm pavilion open and Shen Rang come out, she quickly bowed and said, "Young Master."
“Mother, there’s no need for such formalities,” Shen Rang said. “Why did Mother suddenly think of calling Xi’er over? Is there something you need?”
What could possibly be wrong?
It's nothing more than worrying that Yunxi might not know her own strength and hurt Shen Rang's body, and... about the child.
However, Madam Zhou dared not say such things aloud, and only said, "Young Master, don't worry, it's just asking your aunt to have a word with you, it's nothing serious."
After a moment's hesitation, Shen Rang said, "Would it be alright if we went later?"
Madam Zhou looked troubled: "Young Master, I have come here in person. If I cannot bring the concubine over, I am afraid it will be difficult to explain to Madam."
She's right.
"Then Mom will wait a moment."
After saying that, Shen Rang returned to the warm pavilion.
Watching his retreating figure, Zhou's mother couldn't help but sigh.
If she hadn't seen it with her own eyes, she really wouldn't have believed that Shen Rang would be so thoughtful.
Chen Rang went inside for a short while, and Yun Xi came out hurriedly, dressed neatly.
"Mom, thank you for waiting." Yunxi curtsied to Zhou's mother.
Just as Zhou's mother was about to speak, she noticed out of the corner of her eye that Shen Rang had also come out.
Meeting his mother's gaze from last week, Shen Rang said, "Since I'm already up, I'll take this opportunity to pay my respects to my mother."
Madam Zhou gave a slight smile: "Your Highness is very kind."
Whether it was truly just to pay respects to Madam Zheng, or to prevent Yunxi from being bullied, it's hard to say.
Regardless, at least Yunxi was up, so Zhou Mama didn't delay any longer and led the two of them to Rongxi Hall.
Inside Rongxi Hall, Madam Zheng was having breakfast.
Her meals were simple and bland, which wouldn't appeal to young people at all.
"Mother."
"This humble servant greets Madam."
When Madam Zheng looked up and saw that Shen Rang had also come over, she couldn't help but say helplessly, "Why did you come along too?"
