Qiao Yuchen downed a glass of wine in one gulp, looked at the woman in front of him with a frown, and reached out to smooth it out, but the woman subconsciously dodged away.
This gesture made his eyes darken. "How's the investigation into your case going?"
Chen Siyuan was taken aback and looked at Qiao Yuchen. What did he mean by suddenly bringing this up?
After glancing at him a few times, unable to discern any subtle emotions in his expression, I could only tentatively begin to speak.
“It’s been a long time, how could it be easy to investigate?”
She was also anxious. So many years had passed, and even her grandfather hadn't been found yet, so how could she expect to find him so easily?
"You're alright, at least you know who your mother is, but me..." Qiao Yuchen thought about how he had been full of hope when he met his master, but at this moment, he suddenly felt as if he had sprung out of a rock and had no mother at all.
Chen Siyuan looked at Qiao Yuchen, and the sadness in his usually confident face broke her heart.
At this moment, she seemed to know what was going on, and gently patted the back of her hand, saying, "Don't rush, take your time."
Qiao Yuchen looked at the woman, the pain in his eyes softening considerably.
"Actually, you can go to your father; maybe he will tell you."
"Haha—" Qiao Yuchen sneered, saying nothing.
If we could tell from his mouth, he would have done it a long time ago.
It was precisely because I didn't know from the general or my master that I was even more furious.
It turns out that Qiao Yuchen always thought he had grown up by his master's side since he was a child. Who knew that he had only been with his master since he was three years old? As for before he was three, he had no memory of it and didn't even know his master.
He used to think he was living a very carefree and unrestrained life, but now he realizes that he is actually a pitiful person.
Seeing this, Chen Siyuan didn't know what to say, so she just drank with the man.
She always knew this man was handsome, but because she had been hurt before, she always felt that handsome men were less reliable.
The man in front of her was even more devilishly handsome, and there was no sign of him being reliable at all.
Seeing a different side of Qiao Yuchen today, I suddenly realized that he is also an ordinary person with many troubles.
As they drank cup after cup, the two gradually relaxed, and Chen Siyuan became less cautious in her speech, even openly mocking Qiao Yuchen.
"Haha, you look so pitiful."
Qiao Yuchen was about to drink when he heard this. He looked at the woman and his first thought was that she was drunk, otherwise why would she say such a thing?
She had always been cautious and resistant; she never expected to see this side of herself while drinking.
When I'm in a bad mood, it seems to soothe a little bit of the pain in my heart.
He looked at the woman and downed a glass of wine.
He put down his wine glass, wanting to pick up the woman, but she, who had been drinking, tried to push him away. Even when she wasn't drunk, she wasn't a match for him, let alone now.
He forcefully carried the woman to the inner palace.
Chunlan suddenly stepped in front of him, "Young master, please..."
Qiao Yuchen's expression softened slightly, and he coldly sneered, "Get lost!"
This is the general's mansion, and the woman in front of him is his wife whom he married. Anyone who dares to stop him is asking for trouble.
Chunping reacted quickly and pulled Chunlan away.
She had clearly seen that Qiao Yuchen had murderous intent, and if Chunlan had continued to stop him, she might have lost her life.
Upon reaching the door, Chunlan was furious. "Chunping, are you...?"
"Do you really intend to let the young lady leave?"
Leaving here means becoming a woman abandoned by others; what future does this young lady have?
Who wouldn't care?
"Are you crazy? That's the young lady."
"You forgot? The young lady herself said that from now on she should be called 'Young Madam'."
"That's all just talk for outsiders."
“The young mistress is a woman of her own mind. Besides, I think the young master is quite good as well.”
"You..." Chunlan was almost bursting with anger, and turned her head to look to the side.
Chunping immediately pulled Chunlan to a more distant spot, saying, "We outsiders should keep quiet about matters between husband and wife."
Chunlan then understood why Chunping had done this.
The two of them openly whispered to each other in a corner.
Qiao Yuchen was not the drunken Chen Siyuan; he had overheard the general conversation outside.
These two maids are interesting. I used to find them an eyesore, but now I think they're quite nice. At least they're smarter than the woman in front of me.
He gently put the woman down, looked at her as she slept, and let down his guard.
She is even more beautiful at this moment.
He lowered his head and kissed the woman's forehead.
He liked this woman, but not to the point of resorting to despicable means.
He understood, but he didn't leave.
He lay beside her, quietly watching this woman he could never get enough of.
It was too torturous for him.
The woman he loves is right in front of him, and he's even married her, yet he can't do anything about it.
It's not that he's afraid, it's that if he were to cross their line before this woman has even fallen for him, given her personality, she would probably never forgive him.
For the sake of the long term, he had no choice but to endure it for the time being.
I finally managed to stay awake until midnight, and then I fell asleep. Suddenly, an arm came over, followed by a leg, and then a face came close, rubbing against my chest.
"Yuan'er—" Qiao Yuchen knew the woman was not conscious, but he was.
It's really unfair of him to do nothing while a woman is in his arms.
"Yuan'er—" The woman kept snuggling into his arms, and Qiao Yuchen had to grit his teeth to say it.
