There was a roar of applause. Gu Yunru looked at the newlyweds with interest and was helped to the lobby.

"It's really lively. I haven't seen such a lively scene in a long time." Zhuge Jinyu appeared out of nowhere and exclaimed with emotion.

The two entered the bridal chamber smoothly. It was late at night. Shu'er was excited and a little uneasy sitting on the bed. Suddenly, she heard a rumbling sound from her stomach. She knew it was due to hunger and fatigue after a day of work. She hadn't eaten anything yet.

"I'm so hungry, why hasn't my husband come back yet?" Shu'er frowned in frustration and tried to secretly lift her red veil. She smelled the fragrance of the cakes on the table and her stomach growled again...

Just as she was about to sneakily steal two cakes to fill her stomach, she heard footsteps approaching from the door. Her eyes suddenly lit up, thinking that it might be her husband coming back.

She quickly put on her red veil and sat by the bed waiting for her husband to arrive. She saw a pair of festive red boots. She smiled and smelled the alcohol. She thought her husband must be tired. Before she could comfort him, she was thrown onto the bed and the candle was extinguished by the wind.

The next morning, Shu'er's eyes were stung by a strong beam of sunlight. She heard the loud snoring beside her and couldn't help but smile bitterly. It seemed that her husband was really tired last night.

"Husband, I'll ask Ling'er and Xiang'er to prepare hot water for you to wash up."

Shu'er turned over and saw the fat and big-eared face beside her. This was not Ji Heng at all, but a cook in the back kitchen who boiled water and cooked. How could he come here? Shu'er stared at him with her eyes wide open in horror, and at this time Ji Heng rushed in with his men at the door.

"Come here, arrest Wang Mang! No one can mention this matter, so as not to ruin the reputation of the Ji Mansion. Do you understand?" The guards behind him pulled the cook Wang Mang off the bed. Shu'er was still in shock and couldn't recover. Seeing Ji Heng turning around and leaving, she grabbed the quilt and covered her naked body, yelling at him: "Ji Heng... Stop right there, what is going on?"

Shu'er tried hard to hold back her tears, clenched her fists tightly, and stared at Ji Heng's cold and resolute figure. His face seemed to have become a different person, with a cold and sharp look, no longer like the gentle Ji Heng...

Ji Heng turned around silently and sneered at her, "Last night, I was drunk in the back kitchen and asked Wang Mang to bring you some food. I didn't expect that this kid would actually disobey me and sleep directly in the new room. It seems that you are also dirty."

The last sentence was said in a very frivolous and teasing way, as if he didn't care at all about who she had slept with. Shu'er was so angry that she trembled all over, biting her thin lips and said, "Isn't this what you meant? Letting drunk Wang Mang break into my room, why did you do this to me?

Is it because of Shui Ruotong? "Shu'er yelled at him hysterically, and most of the servants and maids at the door had heard it, but no one dared to spread anything.

"If you want to be the daughter-in-law of the Ji family, you'd better be honest. I can pretend that nothing happened today. Recently, I have selected two girls from Chunxiang Tower and will bring them back to keep you company in a few days. I am afraid that you will be bored alone in the mansion, so this is for your own good."

Ji Heng said those few words to her with a fake smile, then turned around and left resolutely. He even took off his groom's suit so early in the morning, which showed that he came prepared.

He rushed in directly with his guards, and she was completely humiliated... Shu'er put on her clothes tiredly, sat in front of the bronze mirror, tears streaming down her face. She took the hairpin and wanted to stab it into her neck, but the moment it touched her skin, she lost her confidence and the hairpin fell down with a snap.

Three days had passed, and the Lantern Festival was approaching. Nangong Ruowei had already made a set of fleece clothes and sent it to Rong Zhen's study. She said to him softly, "I made this according to your measurements. Try it on first to see if it fits. If there is anything that needs to be improved, I'll take it back for modification."

"No need, Ruowei, you've done a lot for me. I'll always remember what you've done for me. But it's not a big deal if you stay in the mansion. I will ask Yunru to give you a status." Nangong Ruowei thought she was dreaming after hearing this and didn't come back to her senses for a long time.

"Really? You want to give me a name, but will my sister be very angry if she finds out?"

"No, I believe he is well-educated and will understand."

At this time, Gu Yunru was walking to the door. She was going to give Rong Zhen the mushroom soup she had just made to help him recuperate, but she didn't expect to hear their conversation. Was Nangong going to officially move into Prince Zhao's mansion? Gu Yunru couldn't imagine it.

"A Zhao, it's time to drink the soup. I didn't expect Nangong to be here too. Come stay and drink with us." Gu Yunru walked in at this time and broke the ambiguous atmosphere at the scene. Nangong raised his eyes quietly to look at Gu Yunru. There was no change in his expression, but his eyes seemed to have lost their luster.

"Okay." Nangong Ruowei sat aside. This delicious goose meat and sour mushroom soup was something Gu Yunru learned from a local chef. There were also several cold dishes that were appetizing. Knowing that Rong Zhen had been restless recently and even had a poor appetite, these things were specially made.

While Nangong Ruowei was drinking her soup, she glanced at Rong Zhen's face vaguely, while Gu Yunru was clearing his mind.

"Ruowei, do you have anything to say?" Gu Yunru forced a smile, her eyes like waves, looking at Nangong Ruowei who seemed to want to say something but hesitated, and asked directly. Nangong put down the bowl, moistened his throat gently, and looked at Rong Zhen cautiously.

Rong Zhen knew that Nangong Ruowei wanted him to speak directly, and this matter could not be delayed. He looked at Gu Yunru and said, "It's like this. I want Ruowei to stay and give her a status directly. I can't let her live in the mansion as a guest. This will not work in the long run."

"That makes sense. In fact, I thought of it a long time ago. I didn't expect that Sister Ruowei couldn't hold it back anymore!" Gu Yunru looked at Nangong Ruowei with a wry smile, and a hint of shyness appeared on Nangong Ruowei's face. It seemed that everything was under her control.

"The key to this matter still lies in you, Yunru. Are you willing to accept Ruowei as your sister?" As soon as Rong Zhen finished speaking, his anger suddenly condensed to the bottom. Gu Yunru didn't expect that this was what Rong Zhen was thinking. It seemed that Nangong Ruowei was going to be very sad this time.
