"Chen Chui, do you know who you are?!" The words, which suddenly turned fierce, pierced the butler's ears!
"Butler, butler." The butler's voice trembled.
"The housekeeper? So you're even trying to control the lady of the house now!"
The words were like sharp blades, piercing directly into the butler's brain through his ears.
Along with it came a chilling, murderous aura!
Zhan Xiu was usually calm and gentle.
But once he gets angry, he can instantly transport you to hell!
"Thump!"
The butler was so frightened that he immediately knelt down: "Your Majesty, I was wrong! I will never dare to speak ill of the Madam again!"
Zhan Xiuchen coldly glared at the steward from head to toe: "Chen Chu, remember this, Shi Nian is the lady of Baiyu Palace! So whatever she brings back or what she does in Baiyu Palace is none of your business!"
"This is the first time! If there is a next time, then you will be the one leaving the Jade Palace!"
The butler was almost shattered by the shock.
He said, trembling, "Yes, sir."
Before he could finish speaking, a gaze suddenly fell upon him.
The butler was taken aback, but immediately changed his tune: "Yes, sir, I remember, I will keep it firmly in mind."
After saying this, the butler stood up shakily, his gaze sweeping over Shi Nian who had just approached. He lowered his head, his previous arrogance completely gone: "Madam..."
Shi Nian ignored the housekeeper and went straight to Zhan Xiuchen.
When the butler left, his legs were so weak.
........
"The doctor examined me and said there was no problem." Shi Nian came over specifically to tell Zhan Xiuchen.
Zhan Xiuchen's dark eyes were fixed on Shi Nian: "If anyone makes you unhappy or bullies you in the future, tell me."
The fact that the butler dared to say such things in front of him must mean he underestimated Shi Nian's position.
Therefore, Zhan Xiuchen guessed that the steward was probably not very polite to Shi Nian.
Shi Nian did not reply.
Zhan Xiuchen added, "Don't worry about troubling me."
"You're overthinking it," Shi Nian said. "I'm not afraid of troubling you."
Zhan Xiuchen: "......."
He gave a helpless smile.
oh?
So he was just being delusional.
Shi Nian continued, "No one can make me unhappy, and no one can bully me. I'm not that weak."
Zhan Xiu's smile deepened.
His gaze lingered on Shi Nian, a hint of deeper meaning in his eyes: "If you hadn't mentioned it, I would have forgotten. My little wife is certainly not that weak. How could someone who dares to face bullets without fear and protect her man be weak?"
The words "her man" gave Shi Nian goosebumps.
She deliberately changed the subject: "Who exactly are you? Why would someone want to kill you?"
Zhan Xiu's eyes were deep and unfathomable: "Guess?"
I don't want to guess.
Since she was brought here, she has never bothered to investigate the man's identity.
I just asked that question.
But it was clear the man didn't want to talk about it.
If he won't say, then forget it.
She's not exactly a curious person either.
Shi Nian said, "If you're going to tell me, then tell me. If you're not going to tell me, there's no point in me guessing."
Zhan Xiu's eyes grew even deeper.
"Shi Nian." Zhan Xiuchen parted his thin lips slightly, calling Shi Nian's name. A hint of a smile appeared in his eyes, filled with tenderness and affection: "I think I'm growing to like you more and more."
The woman before him was so intelligent and clear-headed that it surprised him.
“You don’t like me,” Shi Nian said.
"Hmm?" Zhan Xiu raised his eyebrows slightly.
"Your smile is forced." Shi Nian saw through it at a glance: "The smile doesn't reach your eyes."
True liking isn't like that.
Because she has seen true love.
That was Grandpa talking to Grandma.
That's true liking, true love.
Because she had seen him before, she could clearly see that the man in front of her was calling her "little madam."
Although I always smile at her with doting affection.
But Shi Nian knew that this was not love.
As for what it was, she didn't know.
I don't want to investigate.
Upon hearing this, Zhan Xiuchen was taken aback, and within a few seconds, his eyes filled with tiny sparkles of light.
Zhan Xiuchen didn't refute Shi Nian, but instead sighed and chuckled, "My little hedgehog, it really is."
