Chapter 1092: Conquest (6)
He was naturally handsome, and usually had a gentle and gentle demeanor. When he approached, his smile was a little mischievous. Luo Tan blushed inexplicably, pushed him away, and said unhappily, "What else can I be careful about? Of course, I should be careful not to die."
"Wouldn't you feel better if I died?" Gao Yang waved his fan. "You can take over the entire Gao Mansion. You can command the servants at will, use the gold, silver, and jewelry as you please, and even the shops and farms..."
"Wait a minute," Luo Tan interrupted him as he listened to his words becoming increasingly outrageous and bizarre. "Who cares about these things? We in the Luo family don't lack them, right? Besides, do you think I'm a fool? These are all your Gao family's things. What do they have to do with me? If you die, how can these things belong to me? Are you crazy?"
Gao Yang said: "What does it have to do with you? Don't you know it?"
"Know what?" Luo Tan was puzzled, and then asked tentatively: "Could it be... this was given to you by my father? In fact, you are my father's man?" She covered her mouth with her hand and said in horror: "My father sent you to monitor me?"
Gao Yang: “…”
After a long while, he sighed resignedly, tapped Luo Tan's forehead, and said, "You usually look quite smart, why are you so stupid now?"
Luo Tan said: "Hey, please explain clearly first."
Gao Yang suddenly placed a finger on Luo Tan's mouth and made a "hushing" gesture. Luo Tan was startled, and felt the place where Gao Yang's finger touched slowly getting hot, and gradually the heat spread to his face...
"What is the relationship between you and me? You can figure it out slowly. Tell me when I come back." Gao Yang put a medical book on Luo Tan's head: "Now, help me sort this out first." After that, he turned around and put it away by himself.
Luo Tan looked at his back, but surprisingly, he didn't get angry. He curled his lips and obediently put away his things.
…
"Are you finally done?"
"It will be alright soon."
"Hiss, it hurts."
"Just one last bit. Don't be afraid, I'll be gentle."
Outside the door, Congyang Moqing and Jingzhe Guyu were both blushing. Jingzhe said, "Ah, I remembered that my clothes haven't been hung out to dry yet. I'll go hang them out first."
Guyu quickly said, "I'll go help too."
Cong Yang also said, "I'll go and dry the quilts as well."
Mo Qing nodded vigorously.
The four of them scattered like birds and beasts in an instant.
Only Tieyi, squatting on the tree, stood tall and immovable like a mountain.
Inside the room, Xie Jingxing held his forehead helplessly. Shen Miao finally strung the last piece of string together and patted his hands in satisfaction: "Alright!"
Xie Jingxing looked at the string of red ropes on his wrists and felt a real headache. Why was he tying so many ropes worn by women? But Chen Miao was still holding her chin and said with a smile: "There are so many, there is no way they will all break."
Before he could say anything, Shen Miao had already stood up with a "bang" and sat down on his thighs with a "thump", which scared Xie Jingxing.
The wine jars in the room were empty, and the air was filled with the stench of alcohol. Shen Miao's face was flushed from drinking, as beautiful as a flower, and she smiled sweetly, a rare sight. She held his face with both hands and kissed him on the cheek.
Xie Jingxing had already calmed down. From the time Shen Miao got drunk until now, she had probably kissed him dozens of times. Whenever Shen Miao got drunk, heh, basically, you could see a completely different woman. How to put it, it was like a lecher who was trying to molest a young lady.
The dignified Prince Rui has lived to such an old age and has flirted with countless women intentionally or unintentionally, but there is only one woman who has flirted with him, and she is a cruel woman who refuses to admit it once she wakes up.
“This concubine’s daughter is indeed good.” Shen Miao said, “She can be an otome.”
Xie Jingxing stared at her expressionlessly for a long while before saying, "Thank you, Madam, for your appreciation."
Shen Miao was satisfied again and said, "I'll give you some silver. Use it to buy clothes." She fumbled in her sleeves and pulled out something, throwing it into Xie Jingxing's hands.
It was the jade token that Xie Jingxing had given her when they were in Mingqi.
Before Xie Jingxing could see clearly, Shen Miao waved her hands again and again, saying, “No, no, no, you took the wrong thing. This is given to me by my husband.” She quickly took it back.
"Husband?" He raised his eyebrows: "Do you still remember that you have a husband?"
Shen Miao looked at him: "I recognize him, my husband is more handsome than you."
Xie Jingxing: “…”
"But he's going to war." She buried her head in Xie Jingxing's shoulder again, found a comfortable position to curl up, yawned, and seemed to be a little sleepy. She said drowsily: "So I got drunk, so that when he leaves, I will still be drunk and won't see him."
"Why don't you want to see him?" Xie Jingxing frowned.
Her voice gradually became weaker: "Because I don't want him to indulge in love, but if I see him go, I won't be able to bear it..." At the end, her breathing was even and long, and she really fell into a deep sleep.
Xie Jing Xing was a little amused, but eventually he stopped laughing. He lowered his head to look at the woman sleeping in his arms, paused, and then said softly, "Actually, you can be a little willful."
Shen Miao did not answer him.
He picked up Shen Miao, put her on the couch, covered her with a quilt, but then reached out and held her hand, sitting on the edge of the bed, doing nothing but looking at her sleeping face, as if that was enough to satisfy him.
In the middle of the night, Tieyi knocked on the door: "Master, we can set off now."
He paused for a moment, then leaned over and placed a kiss on the woman's forehead.
Then, he strode out the door.
After the door was closed, Shen Miao on the bed slowly opened her eyes.
Can't bear to part with it.
I can't bear to watch him leave while I'm awake, but I also can't bear to miss him while I'm intoxicated.
Parting is always a sad and reluctant thing.
Let him go without any burden, and then return like a hero.
There were footsteps outside the door, light and steady. There were other people as well, but he seemed to be able to tell which one he wanted to hear.
The footsteps paused slightly as they passed the room, and then gradually faded away.
The long night is about to pass, the dawn is about to come, and a new day is about to begin.
She didn't know how long she had slept in bed before she sat up and waited for a long time. Jingzhe came in with a basin of water and saw her sitting in bed thinking. He asked in surprise, "Madam, are you awake?"
"Yes." She replied, "I want to go to the palace."
