"Ziyu, are you alright? Are you hot? Why don't you take off your outer pants first?"
Nangong Feng's first reaction was to take out his handkerchief and wipe it between Wu Ziyu's legs.
Before Wu Ziyu could react, Nangong Feng had already reached his hand onto his pants. The posture was bizarre and hard to describe.
Everyone exchanged glances, their eyes constantly glancing at the two of them. One of the students sitting nearby coughed awkwardly twice, reminding the shocked Wu Ziyu. He grabbed Nangong Feng's wrist and said in a deep voice, "Feng, it's okay, I'll go change my clothes."
As he spoke, Wu Ziyu stood up. Before leaving, he grabbed Xiang Wan's wrist, pulled her to his side, wrapped his arms around her waist, and forcefully led her into the backyard.
Xiang Wan sensed something was wrong. She remembered that the medicine she had prepared was still in her bedroom, and she immediately felt relieved. She followed Wu Ziyu's footsteps forward.
Once inside the bedroom, Wu Ziyu turned and closed the door, forcing Xiang Wan close to the wall. He braced himself against the wall with one hand above his head and wrapped the other arm around Xiang Wan's waist, his eyes fixed on her, a storm brewing within them.
"Miss Jiang, you did that on purpose just now, didn't you?"
Wu Ziyu's breathing was a little heavy, hitting Xiang Wan's cheek, and the smell of alcohol made her frown.
"Young Master Wu, what makes you say that?"
Wu Ziyu snorted coldly and said, "Ah Feng just handed me a glass of water, is it really necessary for you to act like this? Miss Jiang hasn't forgotten what kind of relationship we have, has she? Some things shouldn't be taken too far, otherwise, the relationship between us will be more than just a simple transaction."
Upon hearing this, Xiang Wan thought about it carefully and then chuckled softly: "Young Master Wu, you are joking. I am merely fulfilling my duties as a newlywed wife. If word gets out that I don't know how to take care of my husband after only being married, the Wu family's reputation will suffer."
Wu Ziyu frowned, looking at Xiang Wan as if she wasn't joking, and his tone softened: "A-Feng didn't mean anything by it, he's just used to being by my side. He's my good brother, you don't need to worry about it too much."
"Heh, good brother?" Xiang Wan reached out and pressed against Wu Ziyu's chest, pushing him back a step with a little force. "After being by your side for so many days, you really don't know whether Nangong Feng is a man or a woman? Or do you know, but don't want to expose it?"
Wu Ziyu was startled by these words, his pupils darkened, and his expression became somewhat serious: "Don't make wild guesses, we all know that Afeng is just a little..."
"Sissy?" Xiang Wan picked up the conversation and continued, "Don't tell me you didn't know she had pierced ears and no Adam's apple, and don't tell me you never suspected whether she was male or female. Even I can easily tell, there's no reason why someone who studied abroad wouldn't know."
"Jiang Xiangwan!" Wu Ziyu raised his voice, seemingly angered by Xiangwan's words.
"Don't be so loud, I'm not deaf."
What exactly do you want?
"Young Master Wu, that's an interesting question. What do I want, or what do you want? It's just that I guessed Nangong Feng's true gender, is there any need to be so surprised?"
Wu Ziyu stared at Xiang Wan for a long while before saying, "She's an extraordinary woman. I first met her because of her ambition. In this world, it's much easier for men to achieve success than for women. She wants to see how far she can go. I admire her quite a bit, so it's no big deal for me to keep it a secret for her. Since you've already guessed it, then please ask Miss Jiang not to tell anyone. It hasn't been easy for her to get to this point."
So this is the type Wu Ziyu likes—unconventionality is his cup of tea. If that's the case, then what was the original owner of this body? Was she used as a shield so they could establish themselves, start families, and live a life of glory? Deceiving and tricking an innocent woman into marriage like this—that's truly a fine example of the Wu family's upbringing!
Xiang Wan sneered and said, "There are so many women in the world, and quite a few of them want to make a name for themselves. Since you, Young Master Wu, have taken a liking to her, why don't you marry her? Why add me to the mix? Isn't that ridiculous?"
Wu Ziyu frowned deeply, feeling a sudden discomfort as he looked at Xiang Wan's cold gaze. He said in a low voice, "This has nothing to do with our marriage. She is her, and you are you. Besides, didn't we already agree beforehand that..."
"Just a couple in name only?" Xiang Wan slightly curled her lips, the smile not reaching her eyes. "Don't you know that the hardest thing to control in this world is the human heart? You know what you're thinking, but do you know what your confidante is thinking? If she sees you and me being so loving, she'll inevitably cause some trouble. At that point, it won't be as simple as a deal between us."
“No, she’s not like that.” As soon as Xiang Wan finished speaking, Wu Ziyu replied, “She’s not like that.”
"Oh? You know her so well? In that case, I won't say any more. But I hope that Young Master Wu will keep his promise. If he breaks the promise, he should think carefully about the consequences."
"rest assured."
As he spoke, Wu Ziyu planned to have a maid bring him a pair of trousers.
"Young Master Wu, you're not planning to change your pants here, are you?" Xiang Wan teased. "Although you, Young Master Wu, don't mind being seen by others, there are still guests outside. If someone sees you and says you're indulging in lewdness in broad daylight, you'll never be able to face anyone again, will you?"
Upon hearing Xiang Wan's words, Wu Ziyu calmly sat down opposite her and said, "This was originally my room. Now that it's been turned into our bridal chamber, if I don't move here and find another place, it will only cause more gossip. Wan'er, you don't want people to say that your husband dislikes you on your first day of marriage, do you?"
Well, this guy's brought the topic back again. He's really shameless. But Xiang Wan didn't intend to let it go so easily. While the maid brought over the trousers, she sprinkled her homemade powder on the wedding bed. Wu Ziyu was focused on changing his trousers and didn't see Xiang Wan's actions. As he turned his back, Xiang Wan pretended to look for something, and with a flick of the blanket, Wu Ziyu inhaled a puff of the powder just as he turned around.
"Young Master Wu, would you like a glass of water?"
Feeling a little dizzy, Wu Ziyu sat down at the table, picked up the kettle and took a big gulp of water, then rested for a while.
Let's go!
Xiang Wan opened the door and walked out first, with Wu Ziyu following behind her.
The banquet was drawing to a close, and many people had already said their goodbyes and left. Wu Ziyu's classmates chatted for a while before gradually dispersing in twos and threes.
On the Jiang family's side, after entertaining the guests who had come to drink, Mr. and Mrs. Jiang sat wearily in the hall, looking at the empty house, and couldn't help but feel sentimental.
"Old man, do you think our daughter will be liked by her in-laws after she gets there? I also don't know if she and Ziyu will be able to live a good life together."
"Don't worry about it. Let the younger generation worry about their own affairs. At worst, when Wan'er comes back, we'll take care of her for the rest of her life."
"Sigh, I hope that day never comes."
