Wu Weian just endured it, since he didn't need to endure it for too long anyway.
But Wu Weian was still not happy. After all, he did more work but his salary was not much higher.
Thinking of this, Wu Weian suddenly put his arm around Ji Yunxi's waist, but his movements were very gentle. Although it seemed intimate, he was extremely gentlemanly and polite.
Feng Wu, who was about to speak, suddenly stopped and his eyes instantly fell on Wu Weian's hand.
Ji Yunxi raised her head and glanced at the person beside her: "?"
Wu Wei'an lowered his head and spoke quickly and lightly, "Help me, I want to piss him off. I've been coming home late every day lately, and it's all because of him."
Ji Yunxi thought he was childish.
She knew that Feng Wu had always treated her as his property.
On weekdays, when the two of them were at a banquet, sometimes when Ji Yunxi got closer to other men, Feng Wu would feel a little uncomfortable.
Over the years, Ji Yunxi found Feng Wu annoying.
Later, she gradually stopped attending gatherings of young masters and young ladies in the capital, also because she was disgusted by Feng Wu.
But Wu Weian's behavior is too childish.
What is the difference between this and a child deliberately showing off that he has candy in front of children who don’t have candy?
But Ji Yunxi did not struggle free and let Wu Weian hold her waist.
Feng Wu gritted his teeth and said, "Brother Wei'an, can you sort out those ancient books tonight? I'm afraid the Grand Secretary will need them tomorrow."
Wu Weian showed hesitation on his face, and he glanced at Ji Yunxi.
After all, he is not the kind of person who dares to refuse others when he is outside.
Ji Yunxi was silent for a while.
Wu Weian sighed, thinking that he would have to stay up all night, and was about to agree.
Ji Yunxi said: "I'm afraid not."
Feng Wu frowned: "Third Miss——"
Ji Yunxi didn't give the other person a chance to speak and interrupted him directly: "It will be late if we go back. I need to rest. An Lang has to stay with me. I'm scared to be alone."
As soon as she finished speaking, she turned her head, raised her chin slightly to look at him, and whispered: "An Lang, what do you think?"
Wu Weian happened to lower his head.
The two of them were very close, and when Ji Yunxi spoke, her breath sprayed against his ears.
Half his body was numb.

The moon was bright and the stars were sparse. Ji Yunxi was taking a bath in the house, while Wu Weian was sitting on the roof admiring the moon.
It had been more than half an hour since Wu Weian returned from the palace, but his right ear was still red and burning.
He covered his right ear with one hand and looked at the moonlight, a little dazed.
The round-faced steward suddenly appeared beside him and saluted him: "Sir."
Wu Weian didn't answer, as if he didn't hear it.
Seeing this, the round-faced steward raised his voice a little: "Young Master!"
Wu Wei'an finally came to his senses and turned around to glance at him calmly: "What's the matter?"
The round-faced steward nodded, "Sir, the palace has made all the necessary arrangements. Our personnel have established contact with Concubine Feng and Concubine Tong."
Wu Weian continued to cover his ears and admire the moon, and hummed softly.
Wu Weian, the round-faced steward, had already heard what he had said and continued, "Old Qin sent a letter saying that the young master from Yuzhou has been cured. If all is well, he will return to Nanchen Valley. Young Master, can you allow Old Qin to return?"
Wu Weian hummed softly.
The round-faced steward: “???”
The round-faced steward frowned and looked carefully at his young man who was sitting with his knees hugged, his right elbow supporting his right knee, and his slender fingers covering his ears.
He thought for a moment, then switched sides, from Wu Weian's right to his left, and repeated the story of Old Qin: "Sir, what do you think?"
Wu Wei'an: "Yeah"
The round-faced steward: “???”
The round-faced steward was silent for a moment, then suddenly shouted, "Master! Elder Qin has sent a letter! He says he wants to return to Nanchen Valley! Do you think you can let him go?"
Wu Weian, who was in a daze, was frightened by the sudden voice and trembled, almost falling down.
He quickly steadied himself, turned around, and said angrily, "Why are you so loud?"
The round-faced steward had a deadpan expression and explained in a deep voice, "I think the young master couldn't hear me. I'm afraid my voice was too soft."
Wu Weian coughed lightly and waved his hand: "Let him go back."
The round-faced steward bowed and said, "Yes, sir."
He stood there, staring at Wu Weian's still red right ear, lost in thought.
Wu Wei'an glanced at him, and seeing that he was still not leaving, he asked, "Anything else?"
The round-faced steward shook his head: "No more."
Wu Wei'an raised his eyebrows: "Then why are you staying here?"
The round-faced steward then came down from the roof.
After getting off the roof, he went to knock on the Poison Lady's kitchen door.
Poison Lady's voice came: "Who is it?"
The round-faced steward said, "It's me."
Poison Lady: "Come in."
The round-faced steward pushed the door open and walked in.
The Poison Lady is counting the ingredients she will use tomorrow.
The round-faced steward asked, "How's the young master's golden toad Gu?"
The Poison Lady didn't even raise her head, but touched the fresh pork and beef lovingly: "That's it, I won't die anyway."
The round-faced steward said, "Let me ask you, does the Golden Toad Gu affect hearing?"
Poison Lady realized something was wrong and turned around: "What's wrong? Can't the young master hear me?"
The round-faced steward frowned, "It seems so, especially the young master's right ear. I feel something is wrong."
Poison Lady rubbed her chin. "No, it shouldn't. The young master has been fine for so many years. The Golden Toad Gu has long since merged with him. But no one can tell what the Golden Toad Gu will do. This poison is always strange, so it's hard to say."
The round-faced steward was a little worried: "If the young master really can't hear..."
Poison Lady frowned: "Are you sure you can't hear me, Master?"
The round-faced steward looked hesitant. "I just reported to the young master on official business, and I had to speak loudly for him to react. And I saw that his right ear was very red, I wonder if that's the reason."
Poison Lady thought for a moment and said, "We'll know once we try it."
