The second reason was that she couldn't tell Xu Zekun what she was thinking.
To be honest, she was happy for a moment that Xu Zekun came to see her, which showed that Xu Zekun cared about her.
But she didn't know whether his care for her could support her ideas, such as raising the child with her and making her his legal wife.
She didn't dare to gamble at all. Now she could still tell herself that Xu Zekun liked her and live with that joy, but once she said it and Xu Zekun didn't want to, then everything would turn to smoke and dust, and even that little bit of sweetness would disappear without a trace. Yao Susu couldn't bear it at all.
She pursed her lips and said nothing.
Xu Zekun was so anxious that he was about to say something when Dongxia came.
Dongxia came here for no other reason than that early this morning, people in the alley saw Xu Zekun's carriage as soon as they got up. The people in the town were bored and wanted to talk about every bit of news. Now the town was in an uproar, with everyone pointing fingers at Yao Susu.
Dongxia wanted to remind Yao Susu, but of course, she really couldn't control her curiosity.
Yao Susu saw Dongxia secretly looking at Xu Zekun and winking at her, as if to say, "Who is this?" She was almost unable to contain her curiosity.
Yao Susu told Dongxia the truth, but she concealed the fact that Xu Zekun was the son of Ningyuan Marquis.
Dong and Xia were shocked when they found out. It turned out that this was Sister Yao’s husband, Yaoguang’s father!
Oh, yes, Yaoguang has a twin brother. She looked at Yaoguang and then at Lingyi, and liked them very much. Oh my God, the two little dumplings are so adorable.
"Sister Yao, can your husband help Bai Feng?"
When she saw Xu Zekun, Yao Susu knew that Bai Feng was saved, but last night was too chaotic and she didn't have time to mention it.
Yao Susu felt a little ashamed and told the story of Bai Feng. It was hard not to feel soft-hearted when such a pair of clear eyes looked at you.
Xu Zekun actually knew a thing or two about this matter. After listening to what Yao Susu said, he said, "I will take care of it."
He was very frugal with words, but his aura really shocked Dongxia. They felt inexplicably that he was very powerful.
In fact, the reason why Xu Zekun was able to find Yao Susu was because of Bai Feng.
When Bai Feng was slandered, she was really panicked. In a hurry, she sent a letter to Zhong Qingxi, which was intercepted by Xu Zekun, so he knew some of the whole story.
Xu Zekun didn't even show up, but directly sent Tongfu to the county government office, and Bai Feng returned safely. As for the county magistrate, he wanted to come to Yao's house to pay his respects, but was rejected by Tongfu.
Not only did Wu Qingshan's plan fail, but his cousin was also stripped of his position as head constable.
The cousin didn't know what big shot he had offended, so he took out all his anger on Wu Qingshan and even beat him up. Wu Qingshan was in great pain.
Looking at the luxurious carriage at the door, he felt as if he had fallen into an icy cave. Who was so powerful that he could make the county magistrate obey his orders without any effort?
However, he never met Xu Zekun in the end. That night, he was carried to the moat while he was sleeping. The cold river water flooded into his mouth and nose, waking him up suddenly.
He struggled frantically, but several strong hands still firmly controlled his body.
Endless fear and terror surged in his heart. When he thought he was about to die, he was taken out and thrown to the ground.
In the darkness, he couldn't see the other person's face. His body was shaking constantly. He only heard a deep voice, like the King of Hell who was taking away souls: "You've provoked someone you shouldn't have provoked. This time I'll teach you a lesson. If there's a next time, I'll take your life!"
Zhong Qingxi was trembling with fear. He was soaked all over and stayed outside all night. Only when it was dawn and people were on the street did he dare to return home in shame.
I was so scared that I had a fever that day and couldn't get out of bed for several days. I almost died of the illness.

Ever since Yao Susu said she wouldn't go back, Xu Zekun had settled down peacefully in Chizhou. Yao Susu was distressed. She didn't know what Xu Zekun meant by this. Didn't he have to go back to the capital? Wouldn't he attend court?
The good thing is that Lingyi and Yaoguang are siblings, and they can play together for half a day. Because Xu Zekun has been here for a few days, Yaoguang is no longer afraid of him. Sometimes she even lets Xu Zekun hold her up high, so high, so fun!
Lingyi is very close to Yao Susu and smiles whenever she sees her.
Looking at Yao Susu who was hugging her son and kissing him, Xu Zekun thought to himself that he was not in a hurry.
Zhong Qingxi arrived ten days later than Xu Zekun. When Bai Feng saw Master Zhong coming, she stepped forward to apologize. It was because she was too reckless and contacted the Master rashly, which led to the arrival of the Ningyuan Marquis's son and ruined the Master's plan.
Zhong Qingxi looked at Xu Zekun in the courtyard. He was standing tall and graceful, holding Yaoguang in his arms and basking in the sun. He looked at him with a disdainful look, as if he were the head of the family. He gritted his teeth and said, "Forgive my ignorance, but I didn't expect that the General who assists the country would be so capable of intercepting people's letters."
Xu Zekun held his daughter in his arms, glanced at Zhong Qingxi, and said lightly: "It's not as good as the top scholar, it's a good show!"
This means that when he met Zhong Qingxi before, Zhong Qingxi flatly denied that he knew where Yao Susu was.
Zhong Qingxi was so angry that he almost vomited blood. He had been forbearing from contacting his cousin just to completely erase all traces of Yao Susu.
He has always been skeptical about the degree of infatuation of a playboy like Xu Zekun. Xu Zekun might be able to look for Susu for one or two years, but what about three or four years?
He will forget one day, and then it will be time for him to look for his cousin.
He admitted that such an idea was not very upright and even a bit despicable, but he just wanted to be with Yao Susu!
But now, it is obviously impossible!
He took a few steps forward, staring into Xu Zekun's eyes, and said, "I don't know why you came all the way to Chizhou. Could it be that you still don't understand my cousin's feelings?"
Xu Zekun didn't take Zhong Qingxi seriously. He could see that Yao Susu had no interest in this cousin, so it was not enough to cause any waves in his heart.
As for Zhong Qingxi helping Yao Susu escape, that was it. He knew that Susu was wronged. He would not blame Susu, and naturally he would not blame Zhong Qingxi either.
However, Zhong Qingxi's questioning attitude made him feel uncomfortable. "I am Susu's husband. It is only natural for me to come to her. I wonder what identity has brought you to Chizhou, Master Zhong? Is it interesting to interfere in the affairs of a married couple?"
It would have been fine if Xu Zekun hadn't said anything, but once he did, his mouth was like poison. Even a gentleman as upright as Zhong Qingxi got angry, and sparks flew when the two looked at each other.
Yaoguang suffered this unexpected disaster and wanted to cry again, so Xu Zekun hurriedly hugged her to comfort her.
Yao Susu also came out when she heard the sound, and was even more surprised to see Zhong Qingxi in the yard.
"Cousin, why are you here?" There was surprise in her eyes, but soon, it was filled with worry.
