Chapter 29 It was just an accident
Shen Shu hurriedly turned her face away. Even though it was just a kiss on the cheek, she felt her face burning hot.
If Lin Wei's unintentional embrace last time had already terrified her, this real physical contact almost made Shen Shu scream.
Pei Jiming was strong, and seeing Shen Shu so agitated, he hurriedly covered her mouth.
He whispered, "If you don't want your father to find out, don't make a sound."
As Shen Qiushan walked towards the lake, he was filled with unease.
How did he suddenly hear people whispering here?
Shen Shuqiang suppressed her panic and gave Pei Jiming a wink: Young Master Pei, could you think of a solution?
Pei Jiming's mind raced. He released Shen Shu and went around to the other side of the artificial hill.
Shen Shu was almost stunned. Where was he going?
If he goes out like this, wouldn't he be catching his father red-handed?!
She reached out to grab Pei Jiming's clothes, but it was too late.
Shen Shu closed her eyes, thinking it was all over.
How exactly did Pei Jiming explain being at the Earl's mansion in the dead of night?
But the expected scene did not happen. Pei Jiming peeked back, still holding the brick in his hand.
"I knocked Uncle Shen unconscious, is that alright?"
Shen Shu: ? ?
Turning around, I saw Shen Qiushan lying stiffly in the haystack by the lake.
Shen Shu closed her eyes; the scene was too beautiful for her to bear.
"Young Master Pei, haven't you considered that my father might pursue this matter after he wakes up?"
Pei Jiming: "Let them investigate. Anyway, I'll be back at the manor soon, and they won't be able to catch me."
Shen Shu seemed to have gotten used to Pei Jiming's outrageous and relentless way of speaking. "Fine..."
But the awkwardness from that unintentional kiss hadn't dissipated, and Shen Shu had completely lost the will to ask any more questions.
Pei Jiming was also very uncomfortable at this moment: "You call for help first and lure those bricklayers over. Then I'll crawl back through that hole. They're still building it now, so it's definitely not sturdy. If I push it, it will definitely collapse. I... I'll go back first."
"As for the rest, we can meet again tomorrow night."
Shen Shu nodded haphazardly, thinking it was feasible, but something about it felt off.
What do you mean by "see you tomorrow night"? It makes it sound like they're having an affair.
Once Pei Jiming had walked away, Shen Shu pinched her throat, not wanting anyone to recognize her voice: "Lord Bo Gong has fainted! Someone come quickly!"
As he spoke, he slipped away from behind the bushes.
The bricklayers who were still building the wall heard the noise and put down their tools to check on the situation at Chenqiu Mountain.
Shen Shu heard a loud bang from inside Guiyuxuan.
The wall collapsed again.
Damn it, couldn't you have been a little gentler?!
Shen Shu sighed and rubbed her forehead.
She avoided people and tiptoed back to her own courtyard.
Just as I was about to push open the courtyard gate, I saw Shen Xiao standing by the gate like a ghost.
Shen Shu was startled: "Are you still on your medication? What are you doing standing at the gate of my hospital in the middle of the night instead of sleeping?"
Shen Xiao asked in a sinister tone, "Where did you go in the middle of the night? You didn't go to meet Pei Jiming, did you?"
Shen Xiao made a huge fool of herself at the banquet and was severely scolded by Shen Qiushan. Although Wen Lanting comforted her for most of the night, she still couldn't calm down.
She tossed and turned, unable to sleep. After her courtyard was taken away, she could only live in a side room next to Wen Lanting's courtyard.
The room was small and cramped, a world apart from the former Zhuxiao Courtyard.
So she wanted to see what her biggest enemy, Shen Shu, was doing now.
Unexpectedly, as soon as she arrived, she saw Shen Shu sneaking back from outside.
Then she remembered Wen Lanting saying that Shen Shu might have already lost her virginity to Pei Jiming, so she deliberately said this to trick her.
Shen Shu's expression was indeed somewhat unnatural: "Have you lost your mind? Saying such nonsensical things."
She went to meet Pei Jiming, but it wasn't for an affair.
That kiss... was an accident too!
Seeing Shen Shu's strange reaction, Shen Xiao's heart beat a little fast. Could it be that she was right?
Did she really go to meet Pei Jiming in secret?
She had long heard that once you've experienced sex, most people can't give it up.
Shen Shu is definitely not sleeping well in her own courtyard in the middle of the night; she must be out reminiscing with Pei Jiming.
"Shen Shu, just admit it, you and Pei Jiming have slept together, haven't you?"
Shen Xiao laughed maniacally: "I knew that after that pot of wine, Pei Jiming would definitely not be able to handle it. I clearly saw the two of you in Guiyuxuan with my own eyes. A man and a woman alone together, how could nothing possibly not happen!"
"Was that hole made because you smashed it too violently?"
Shen Shu's attention was completely elsewhere: "You admit that you drugged Pei Jiming?"
Shen Xiao no longer cared, because she believed she had Shen Shu's weakness.
"Yes, I did it! So what? You're no longer a virgin. Let's see if Lin Wei still wants you!"
Shen Shu looked at Shen Xiao and felt sorry for her: "Then I'm sorry to disappoint you, but I am innocent now."
Shen Xiao: ...
"Your attempts to argue won't work!"
Shen Shu said with a serious face: "It's true. If you don't believe me, you can call the nanny to examine you."
Shen Xiao: ……
Shen Shu continued, "No matter how you look at it, you're the more pitiful one. Even if I really lost my virginity to Pei Jiming, I might as well just marry Pei Jiming."
"But you, sister, made a complete fool of yourself in front of so many people, taking off your clothes, twisting and screaming. You looked so pathetic. I really don't know what you're so proud of."
Shen Shu deliberately stabbed into her heart and lungs.
He then pushed open the courtyard gate, no longer wanting to pay attention to Chen Xiao.
Only Shen Xiao remained outside the courtyard gate, his face dark with anger, yelling incoherently.
Shen Xiao was no longer going to sleep. She decided to go and wait outside the Dingyuan Marquis's residence right now.
Tell Lin Wei everything Shen Shu had done.
She refused to believe that Shen Shu would remain so composed when Lin Wei questioned her.
"Get the car ready!"
So, in the middle of the night, the gatekeeper of the Marquis of Dingyuan's mansion saw a carriage parked at the main gate.
The gatekeeper thought to himself, "Our lord is already married, so why are these young ladies still clinging to him, waiting outside the gate in the middle of the night? How can they be so shameless?"
So he stepped forward and shooed them away: "Go away, go away, hurry up and leave, don't block the way."
Shen Xiao lifted the carriage curtain: "I have important business with Lord Lin. Please inform him."
The gatekeeper sneered, "I've seen plenty of people like you. Every girl who comes to see our Marquis says she has important business to discuss."
When Shen Xiao saw that the gatekeeper was treating her as someone trying to seduce Lin Wei, she became anxious: "You gatekeeper have no sense of propriety. I am from the Shen family."
Gatekeeper: "What's wrong with the Earl's Mansion? Even a princess won't do. The Marquis said that any woman who comes should be kicked out. Get out of here, a good dog doesn't block the way."
Shen Xiao was trembling with anger. She had just been reprimanded by Shen Shu, and now she was being treated like a dog by Lin Wei.
This couple doesn't treat her like a human being at all!
Shen Xiao thought to herself, she wouldn't leave, she would just wait here. She didn't believe that Lin Wei could stay home forever; she would eventually catch him.
The gatekeeper sneered: This young lady is indeed a fool. Their Marquis never leaves through this gate. She can wait until the end of the year and still not see the Marquis.
However, just to be on the safe side, the doorman still told Shi Feng, who was by Lin Wei's side, about the matter.
After listening, Shi Feng decided to go in and report.
But when they opened the door, the room was empty.
Shi Feng: No? Where did the Marquis go in the middle of the night??
Shen Shu looked at Lin Wei sitting in her boudoir and felt a little guilty.
This feels like a scene where your husband catches you having a secret rendezvous with your lover.
Lin Wei sneered, "You seem to be quite busy today."
