Chapter 39 Then I'm relieved
The probability that Rong Chen did not determine that she had poisoned him was even smaller than the probability of red rain, sharp blades, and RMB falling from the sky.
Shu Wan held his breath.
If there is no trust at all, why bother to cooperate? Wouldn't it be better to just give her the divorce papers?
Shu Wan knew that Rong Chen would definitely slam the table and leave in anger.
She was doing this now only because she was really angry. She didn't think Rong Chen would really drink it. Firstly, he couldn't, and secondly, she didn't want to give it to him.
But unexpectedly, Rong Chen suddenly reached out and took the bowl.
Shu Wan didn't expect him to do this. She didn't even have time to pull the bowl back because Rong Chen had already drunk the remaining hangover soup.
"I..." Shu Wan didn't know what to say. Didn't Rong Chen think that she had poisoned him? How could he dare to drink? He was really drunk.
"Do you believe it now?" Rong Chen raised the corner of his mouth slightly and looked at her with a smile.
"Believe it, why not?" Shu Wan became even angrier without knowing it. "Get up, get up." She pulled Rong Chen without saying a word.
"What?" Rong Chen asked, but he finally obeyed.
"The poison will take effect in a quarter of an hour, get out and don't get in my way!" Shu Wan said as she pushed the man out, "Rong Chen, go to hell!" After she pushed the man out, she closed the door.
"You'll be a widow after I die!" Rong Chen kindly reminded her.
"Get out." Shu Wan roared.
There was no sound outside.
Shu Wan jumped onto the bed angrily, pulled the quilt over his head, but tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep.
Her quilt was just covered by Rong Chen !!!
After Shu Wan had two days of leisure, Nanny Sun brought Shu Wan a list, saying that according to etiquette, the city lord's wife should hold a banquet five days after the wedding and invite the ladies of the city's aristocratic families to attend. Firstly, it would allow the female relatives to get to know Shu Wan and build relationships with him to avoid the embarrassment of not recognizing him when they meet in the future; secondly, it would make Shu Wan, the city lord's wife, appear well-educated and well-mannered.
Nanny Sun came to ask her if she wanted to add anyone else or cross anyone off the list.
Shu Wan really had no interest in these things. She flipped through them casually and didn't know any of these people. To her, it made no difference whether they were invited or not.
But she knew that this was not just a simple banquet, it was to help Rong Chen consolidate the officials in the city.
"Well, very good." She pretended, "Just invite people according to the list given by Nanny. There is no need to cross out anyone's name. Just invite everyone over so that everyone can have fun. Haha... As for whether to add anyone else, it's up to you, Nanny. Nanny's opinion is my opinion, haha... I trust Nanny to do things." She returned the list to Nanny Sun. She said a lot and made a lot of mistakes, but she still didn't say anything.
"Yes, ma'am." Nanny Sun had also heard some of it. Shu Wan didn't like writing or reading. Now it seemed that she might have a dizziness problem when she saw words again. So she didn't say anything more, "Then I'll take my leave first." This list was personally finalized by Zhao. In fact, there were no mistakes or omissions. She just brought it to Shu Wan for review. If Shu Wan felt there was anything wrong, they would modify it. If there was no objection, they would send the post out.
"Wait." Shu Wan suddenly stopped her. "Will the city lord be present tomorrow?"
"In reply to Madam, logically speaking, the city lord does not need to attend tomorrow's banquet." Nanny Sun gave a more official answer.
"Okay, that's a relief." Shu Wan smiled.
