Chapter 009: Is it so great that he is handsome?

After He'an's actions, the matter between the two was temporarily covered up.

After a simple wash, Ruan Qinghuan went to her mother's hospital so that He'an could also take a bath.

In Cuijingxuan, Zhou Yunzhi felt relieved after hearing what Mrs. Liu said. If the Prime Minister really treated Qinghuan well, she would be happy.

After Ruan Qinghuan opened the door, she looked around. Zhou Yunzhi knew what she was looking for: "Don't look. Your father is in the side yard."

As expected, last night, that was my mother's excuse.

Ever since Ye Fang came into the mansion, mother has never let father rest in Cuijingxuan again.

Zhou Yunzhi pulled her daughter to sit down distressedly, and told Mrs. Liu to go to the kitchen to stew some tonic food. When they were the only two people in the room, Zhou Yunzhi asked, "Are you feeling unwell? How about I find a doctor to see you?"

Ruan Qinghuan didn't understand at first, until she heard her mother continue, "I'm afraid it will be hard to endure these first few days, but it will get better over time. When you give birth to a child for He'an, your position as mistress will be secure."

Ruan Qinghuan blushed and lowered her head in embarrassment: "Mom, why are you saying this?"

"Mom is not a stranger, what are you afraid of?"

He is indeed not an outsider, but if this matter is brought out in the open, even Ruan Qinghuan, a modern man, would find it difficult to accept it.

Thinking about how his mother had sent Mrs. Liu to eavesdrop on the room last night, Ruan Qinghuan really hoped to return to the Prime Minister's Residence as soon as possible, at least, she wouldn't have to act anymore.

As they were talking, there was a sudden noise from the side yard. When they listened carefully, it sounded like Ye Fang was crying.

Zhou Yunzhi sighed in frustration: "Don't pay attention to him, he must not want your father to go out, he did it on purpose."

Ruan Qinghuan also thought so. Such things happened frequently before she got married. Ye Fang's tricks were only enough to deceive her father who seemed shrewd but was actually conceited.

But as they listened, they both realized something was wrong. Normally, they just had minor quarrels that would die down after a while, but today, things seemed to be getting bigger and bigger. Ye Fang's crying became hysterical, one wave louder than the other.

"Master, you can't chase me away. I came to the capital to seek refuge with you wholeheartedly. I am willing to bear children for you... Please, don't chase me away..."

"You are so stupid." Originally, he was just putting on a show for He'an to see, but Ye Fang didn't know how to read his expression. She really thought that he didn't care about her anymore and refused to move out no matter what he said.

Seeing that the lady in the next yard had to go on with the show, Ruan Chengfu simply threw his sleeves and left.

Zhou Yunzhi was confused and puzzled. Ruan Chengfu had said all kinds of nice things to get this woman into the family, so why would he suddenly chase her away?

Ruan Qinghuan had not expected such a commotion. He suddenly remembered that He'an and his father were playing chess in the study yesterday. The one who could influence his father's thoughts might not be influenced by his grandmother's words. It seemed that the only one could be He'an.

Could it be that He An really put pressure on his father, forcing him to drive Ye Fang out of the house?

In the original book, after Ye Fang fell into poverty in the Ruan family, she ran away with a lover outside. At that time, her father was still obsessed and believed that the child in Ye Fang's belly was his.

It was not until the Ruan family fell into poverty and the father heard from Ye Fang herself that the child in her belly was from another man that he became completely hopeless, angry and regretful. He fell ill that night and passed away more than ten days later.

Although Ruan Qinghuan was happy that Ye Fang was driven out of the house, she suddenly realized a serious problem.

As she changed, many things in the original book seemed to have changed.

In other words, some people and things are not as easy to control as before, and her golden finger of knowing the plot in advance may not be useful.

A sense of uneasiness rose in her heart. Ruan Qinghuan couldn't help but think of He An's wolf-like eyes last night. She was troubled and thought that in order to avoid any trouble, she might as well divorce him in advance, and they could go their separate ways and live their own lives.

During the two nights at Ruan's house, Ruan Qinghuan had to share a room with He'an because Mrs. Liu was watching over them. They both took a bath early in the morning, which did not arouse any suspicion.

He'an, on the other hand, felt that something was not quite right with Ruan Qinghuan. He looked dazed and seemed to be thinking about something ever since he got in the car.

"Father and mother will be back in the next two days. Madam, you should do your duty and not cause any trouble."

Ruan Qinghuan came to his senses after hearing this: "Don't worry, sir. I know what I am doing."

"What is the lady going to do?"

Does she need to do anything?

After thinking about it, Ruan Qinghuan came back to his senses and assured: "Don't worry, my lord. If mother asks me, I will say that my lord is busy with official business, so I stayed in the study."

He An: “…”

"Is it inappropriate for me to say this?" Seeing his eyes getting darker, Ruan Qinghuan asked uncertainly, "Then, sir, how do you think I should deal with this so as not to arouse suspicion from my parents-in-law?"

He An took a deep breath. If he hadn't seen so many people and hadn't gotten to know her a little after spending the past two days with her, he would have thought that she was trying to attract his attention and that was why she was so unkempt.

She didn't want to do anything a newlywed should do.

Seeing that he was still upset and had no intention of speaking, Ruan Qinghuan racked her brains for a long time and suddenly had an idea: "How about this, when mother comes back, I will take the opportunity to go to the temple to pray for you. This way, you can stay in the temple for ten days or half a month, and you don't have to worry about arousing suspicion from your parents-in-law."

"Are you sure your mother won't be angry if you go out to fast and chant Buddhist scriptures right after you get married?"

Yeah, it doesn’t seem so conventional.

Ruan Qinghuan couldn't think of a good solution, so he had only one last trick left: "How about you divorce me when you go back?"

"Ruan, Qing, Huan." These three words were almost squeezed out from between He'an's teeth.

He suddenly reached out and pulled Ruan Qinghuan, who was sitting on the side, into his arms, and pressed her against the wall of the car: "Do you think that my wedding in the prime minister's mansion is a joke? You divorced me after five or six days of marriage?"

He raised his hand and pinched her chin, his gaze gradually moving downward from her eyes to her warm, rosy lips.

"No...you...um..."

He'an's kiss came unexpectedly, and Ruan Qinghuan panicked immediately. While she was trying to push him away, he hugged her tightly and she couldn't move.

Outside was a noisy market. Ruan Qinghuan let all kinds of sounds enter her ears, but her mind was blank. It was not until she was about to suffocate that He An finally let go and held her body, which was about to collapse: "This is how a lady should act."

Ruan Qinghuan met his eyes angrily. In her mind, she had a thousand greetings to his ancestors, but in the end, she said only one sentence: "Are you sick?"

"The princess can try to cure him."

Ruan Qinghuan choked.

Of course, she didn't dare to really scold him. In this era when high-ranking officials could crush people to death, He An was definitely able to cover the sky with one hand for a merchant family like theirs.

But she couldn't help getting angry when she thought about being taken advantage of by a man who didn't love her.

Is it so great to be handsome?

Is it a big deal to have strength?

Is it great to be a high-ranking official?

Do you really think she is easy to bully?

Ruan Qinghuan only dared to complain about these in his heart, and he was not stupid enough to really challenge He An's bottom line.

In the original book, he helped the prince clear obstacles and ascend to the throne. His dark methods and cruelty were no joke.

"Tonight, I will go back to Changchun Garden to rest."

After getting off the carriage, Ruan Qinghuan wanted to escape back to the inner courtyard, but he heard these words coming from behind. He immediately stopped and turned around, looking at He An with complicated eyes.

He came over calmly and said, "Since I have helped you hide it from your mother-in-law, you must not let me down next."
