Chapter 342 Questioning You, Then What?
The two of them hurried to the main bedroom to check and breathed a sigh of relief when they saw Cui Si sleeping soundly.
Yanzhi wiped the sweat from her forehead and said to Songlu, "Look after my wife from now on. Be sure to be careful and cautious."
It was a false alarm, and Song Lu was a little nervous. He nodded after hearing this and said, "I'll pay attention."
It’s not like before. In the past, Cui Si indulged them, so they couldn’t help but relax a little. But now that the master is pregnant, and there is a baby in her belly, they must keep an eye on her and take good care of her.
The golden sun was setting in the west, and one side of the sky was a little dark, as if it was going to rain. Yan Xingchuan rushed back home before the heavy rain fell, and did not see Cui Si in the yard, so he asked the two of them.
"Where is your master?"
Yanzhi replied, "My wife went out today and was a little tired, so she went to rest. She hasn't gotten up yet."
Upon hearing this, Yan Xingchuan went to the dormitory and saw her sleeping soundly on the bed with a thin quilt in her arms, half of her face buried in the quilt. Her quiet appearance made his heart soften.
Yan Xingchuan said, "Bring a fan over here. It's getting a bit stuffy because it's going to rain, and she won't be sleeping well."
Yanzhi replied "yes" and then took out a round fan and handed it to him.
Yan Xingchuan raised his hand to let them go, then sat down beside the bed, leaning against the bed frame to fan her. She frowned slightly, then let go, hugged the quilt and moved, sleeping more soundly.
Yan Xingchuan reached out and touched her hair, sighing, "You sleep soundly, but you only cause trouble for me."
Shangguan Tong also wrote down the content of the meeting with King Nanhuai that day and handed it to him. When he saw the content, he also felt dizzy.
I have to say that Cui Jingke is really insidious. His tit-for-tat approach is impeccable, and even Shen Sui cannot refuse it.
If he refused or disagreed, it would mean that Shen Sui was denying his own position. No matter how high-sounding his words were before, they all became his selfishness. He was shameless and mean, and he was using public power for personal gain and using despicable means.
Shen Sui could not admit that he was such a despicable person, so he had to agree in the end.
Shangguan Tong said that these words were said by Cui Jing, but Yan Xingchuan felt that she must have something to do with it. If Chen Sui dared to harm her, she would dare to let Chen Sui have a taste of the consequences.
The attack was swift and fierce, catching Shen Sui off guard.
Yan Xingchuan also felt that Shen Sui deserved it. People like him really should be taught a severe lesson and understand that being a human being is not about being his general and arbitrarily dominating the life and death of others and having them listen to him.
Just thinking about Shen's parents and how Shen Sui had paid so much for Beiyan, and ended up like this, he, as the lord, felt very complicated.
It's difficult to stop or not.
If he stopped her, Shen Sui might not be grateful to him and would continue to do his own thing and cause trouble. He would have ruined Cui Si's plans, and Cui Si would probably turn against him directly, making it difficult for them to meet in the future.
After thinking about it, he had no choice but to let it go.
It was Chen Sui who harmed others first, so he can't blame others for taking revenge on him.
It was not until dark that Cui Si woke up from her sleep.
Outside, the sound of raindrops was sometimes loud and sometimes soft. A cool breeze blew in gusts. It was not strong, but accompanied by the coolness of the rain, it made people feel very cool and comfortable.
It was so comfortable that she couldn't help but close her eyes and continue sleeping.
"Wake up." Someone pushed her.
She frowned, closed her eyes for a while, and then opened them. Her vision began to clear, and in the dim room, his figure was particularly clear.
"Awake?" He reached out and touched her hair, leaned over and kissed her forehead, and whispered, "You've slept for a long time. It's getting dark. It's time to get up and have some food."
Cui Si looked at the sky and saw that it was indeed late. She asked him quietly, "How long has it been raining? I got wet when I came back. Why didn't you light a lamp..."
Yan Xingchuan felt soft-hearted, and he loved the way she looked, still groggy and concerned about him even after just waking up.
He kissed her eyebrows again, and he felt a desire in his heart that time would stop at this moment.
He didn't want to think about Chen Sui anymore, he only thought about her.
"I came back early, before it rained. I saw that you slept well, so I didn't light the lamp. I'll go light it now." He kissed her again, and after a long time, he got up reluctantly, took the tinder on the lampstand and lit the lamp outside the bed.
Then, he took some clothes from the rack next to her and put them on her: "Would you please get up? It's time for dinner."
He just sat beside the bed, talking to her softly, his eyes full of tenderness.
Cui Si covered his eyes with her hands.
Yan Xingchuan held her hand, squeezed it in his palm, pinched his fingers, and asked her with a smile: "Why are you covering my eyes?"
Cui Si leaned against him and didn't want to talk.
In fact, it was only during these days that she began to feel that they were a couple.
Sometimes he was so nice to her that it felt like a dream, so unreal.
His eyes, filled with such love and joy, were filled with her, which made her not want to look at him.
She was afraid of seeing too much, so she would persuade herself to let the past go, let it go, and cherish the present. Everything in the past was a disaster, and now that they have achieved their goal, they should cherish it so as not to regret it in the future.
In fact, she would rather he not be so nice to her, so that when she turned around and left, she would not have any psychological burden.
"You won't ask me?" she asked.
"What?" he asked her.
"Chen Sui." Cui Si calmed down her emotions and put them at ease. "I received a letter from my third brother today. You should have known about it a long time ago."
Yan Xingchuan nodded.
Cui Si smiled and said, "I thought you would come and question me. After all, he is the great general of Northern Yan, and has a close relationship with the Yan family and you. He has made an indelible contribution to the development of Northern Yan. A great general like him should be someone you care about and protect."
Yan Xingchuan reached out and held her hand, then asked her, "I'll question you, and then what?"
Cui Si thought to herself: Then he will stop the matter, change it again, and quarrel with me again.
Then, she could leave as a matter of course and without any guilt.
Cui Si asked him, "Don't you think I did something wrong?"
Yan Xingchuan asked her in return: "Do you think you did something wrong?"
Cui Si shook her head. "Of course I'm right. I won't offend anyone unless they offend me. But if they do, I'll definitely retaliate. Since he dared to attack me, it's only natural for me to fight back. Now, it can only be considered a duel between the two of us. He was inferior in skill, so he lost."
"He deserves this result."
"And the Cui family and he are just colleagues, colleagues only. They won't just sit there and silently endure it when the other party steps on their face just because of his merits."
