The previous sentence? Su Yuan was taken aback, unable to recall it for the moment.
Sheng Jingyu said leisurely, "A life for a life, a debt for a debt, it's only right and proper."
After saying that, he grabbed Su Wenyuan's wrist and brought her in front of him, making her sit down to talk.
"That day at the Wanlin Hunting Ground, you said I could make a move against the Wang family so easily, but you have an official position, so it's not so easy to touch you. I admit, it's really not easy, but whether there's a chance or not, you guess." Su Wenyuan grinned.
In Su Yuan's eyes, that smile was undoubtedly a death warrant.
Su Wenyuan was slowly devouring everything he had, catching him off guard every time.
Su Yuan stopped pretending and said angrily, "I should have strangled you back then."
"Bringing up the past? Yu Qingzhu shouldn't have married you in the first place. She's the kind of person who turns her back on you after climbing the social ladder. How dare she bring up the past?" Su Wenyuan poured herself a cup of tea with a calm expression.
After being scolded so many times, Su Wenyuan had become able to remain completely unmoved.
Su Yuan left in a rage, regretting that he had come back to humiliate himself.
This isn't the first time he's come looking for trouble, nor is it the first time he's regretted it, but it won't be the last.
"Shameless and forgetful," Su Wenyuan muttered.
Suddenly she remembered something, and beckoned Meng Qi to tell him, "Go and tell Su Yuan that I will not be living in the Su residence from now on. I will keep the memorial tablet here so that he will stop worrying about me."
Su Yuan said no one lives here, right? Indeed, no one lives here, but we can put the memorial tablet here.
"You're asking for it!" Su Yuan squeezed out these two words through gritted teeth, without offering any further comment.
After hearing this, Su Wenyuan sighed and said, "Whether it's courting death or not, I don't know. I only know that a person can't be heartless."
Sheng Jingyu stopped joking with her and said seriously, "Don't worry, the matter of Marquis Anle..."
"I'm relieved. You don't need to say anything more. Go to sleep." Su Wenyuan was in a bad mood.
Her mood fluctuates wildly, easily influenced by others, and there's nothing she can do about it.
She didn't sleep well that night either. The thought of other people sleeping in this bed made her feel uncomfortable, and she tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep.
Afraid of disturbing Sheng Jingyu, she had to try hard to control her restless thoughts.
Sheng Jingyu remained awake, and not daring to speak for fear of affecting her mood.
It wasn't until dawn that Sheng Jingyu sat up and said, "You haven't slept all night. What are you after? Wouldn't it be better to go back to the Prince Chen's residence?"
"You know I haven't slept, so why didn't you get up earlier? You scared me so much I didn't dare breathe properly." Su Wenyuan yawned and sat up.
Sheng Jingyu said, "You can breathe, and sometimes you even talk in your sleep at night. I'm used to it."
"Was the content of your sleep-talking about getting a divorce?" Su Wenyuan asked seriously.
Sheng Jingyu was speechless. He was just joking, but he got a retort.
Even though he knew Su Wenyuan hadn't slept well and was angry, he still went against the grain.
"No, most of the time they're expressing their liking for me."
Su Wenyuan blinked and said, "Then what you heard might be ghost stories, or you might be dreaming."
Unable to argue with her, Sheng Jingyu asked, "Why can't you sleep?"
Su Wenyuan patted the bed board and said, "Even if the bedding is new, I still feel disgusted by this bed. In the Prince Chen's mansion, has any other woman slept in the bed we sleep in?"
Sheng Jingyu said with a joking expression, "What if there is?"
"Then you're dead." Su Wenyuan smiled, a smile that sent chills down one's spine.
Sheng Jingyu said, "When you first married into the Prince Chen's mansion, you weren't this picky. Back then, we didn't know each other, and that bed was mine, but you still slept perfectly well, didn't you?"
At that time, Su Wenyuan's life was in danger, so she had no time to be sentimental.
She now has an instinctive aversion to the people of the Su family, so she is very bothered by this matter.
As for why she asked Sheng Jingyu, Su Wenyuan explained to herself that she had been living a good life for too long, so she became picky, which was not a bad thing!
Faced with Sheng Jingyu's question, Su Wenyuan also came up with a reason, chuckled and said, "Back then, I quite liked your face. Now, if you give me a better face, I wouldn't mind either."
As soon as she finished speaking, Su Wenyuan felt a dizzying sensation and realized that she had fallen down without knowing when, and there was someone on top of her.
Sheng Jingyu wasn't angry, but said with a malicious smile, "You're after my face? You should have said so earlier. Let's do what a married couple should do."
"It's so early in the morning...you...you...get up, you...get up right now." Su Wenyuan blushed and stammered as she pushed him away.
He can only vent his frustrations verbally, but he lacks the courage to take action.
Sheng Jingyu obediently lay back down. He was just teasing her; he wasn't comfortable living in the Su residence.
But when will his relationship with Su Wenyuan take another step forward?
After Sheng Jingyu moved back to Su Wenyuan's room, he always felt that Su Wenyuan agreed to let him come back because it would be convenient for them to talk and discuss things in the same room, rather than because Su Wenyuan had feelings for him.
How should one deal with matters of the heart? Sheng Jingyu had a headache just thinking about it.
Su Wenyuan climbed out of bed and said, "It's already dawn, get up. Don't you have to go to court this morning?"
Sheng Jingyu said, "No need, I stayed at the Su residence yesterday, why should I attend court today? But your father has to go."
Su Wenyuan thought for a moment and said, "Yes, then you should go too. Keep an eye on him for me to prevent him from saying the wrong thing. I'll stay here. Ideally, when he comes back from court, all the people in the mansion should have moved out."
Sheng Jingyu pursed his lips, thinking to himself that it's so hard to slack off these days.
"Alright, but stay at the Su residence by yourself. Be careful and don't get into fights," Sheng Jingyu instructed.
After all, it means that the people of the Su family have to move out, and they certainly won't be willing. If they harbor resentment and then go crazy and attack Su Wenyuan, it will be troublesome.
Su Wenyuan sneered, "They dare to do that!"
They certainly didn't dare. They had considered coming together to plead for her, but none of them had thought of coming to fight Su Wenyuan.
That night, not only did Su Wenyuan not sleep well, but everyone in the mansion did not sleep well either.
The servants were also awake, not knowing where to go. These masters of the Su family could move away so easily, but would there still be a place for them in the new residence?
The concubines did the same; they sent someone to check out the new courtyard last night and found it to be pitifully small.
When they were here, they had a spacious yard where they could plant flowers, trees, and shrubs if they wanted.
But if we move there, we'll only get a pitiful room.
The thought of a bunch of people crammed together makes them anxious.
Finally, they decided to come together and discuss it with Su Wenyuan.
When everyone arrived at Rongzhu Courtyard, Su Wenyuan was having breakfast. This breakfast was sent by someone from the Prince Chen's Mansion, as Ye Shan had instructed beforehand.
She was worried that the people at the Su residence were unaware of the situation and that she might not be able to command them properly, which could cause further delays.
