The place where Pei Yan had been lying before had already become cold.
But Song Huan, who was lying beside him, was like a small stove, with endless heat coming out of his whole body, which soon warmed up half of his body.
Pei Yan turned his head to look at her.
This woman was not very restful when she slept. I don't know if she rolled around in bed, but there were several strands of hair on her face.
Pei Yan reached out and tucked her hair behind her ears.
Song Huan: “……?”
Is Pei Yan possessed by another spirit?
So thoughtful... If her face hadn't just been touched by his cold fingertips, she would have almost thought that some wild man was taking advantage of her!
But after Pei Yan finished styling her hair, his fingers didn't leave Song Huan's cheek. Instead, they gently brushed across her chin and landed on the collar of her loose inner dress...
Song Huan's heart instantly rose to his throat, and he couldn't help but hold his breath and wait.
Unexpectedly... cough cough, Song Huan felt his neck suddenly tighten.
Pei Yan buttoned her collar...
Well, it is indeed Pei·uninterested in women·cold and abstinent·Yan.
Song Huan was relieved. Pei Yan wouldn't do anything to her anyway. Her heart, which had been in her throat, finally calmed down.
But if this guy sleeps with her tonight, it would be a good opportunity to test whether the broken system will confuse "sharing a bed" with "consummating the marriage"...
Song Huan turned over and faced the wall in front of him. He just had to see the result tomorrow morning.
She hugged the quilt tightly and fell asleep peacefully.
Pei Yan's hand, which was suspended in the air, froze for a moment. Seeing that Song Huan did not make any other movements after turning over, he gradually relaxed his hands. After a moment, he also closed his eyes.
But about half an hour later, Pei Yan felt an arm suddenly reaching up to him.
He never slept deeply, and this arm was still moving around all over his body... After a while, Pei Yan was woken up by the tossing and turning.
He tucked Song Huan's arm back into her chest. However, less than half a minute later, Song Huan raised her foot and landed on Pei Yan's calf again.
Pei Yan: “…”
Forget it, just let her be.
Just because of this, Pei Yan could no longer close his eyes tonight.
Song Huan turned sideways, half of her body leaning over, and the soft breath of the woman instantly invaded his heartstrings... Pei Yan's breathing stagnated, and a heat swirled in his body.
His eyes suddenly became deep.
It seems... it's time to consummate the marriage soon.
. ……
When she woke up the next morning, Song Huan found herself alone in bed. She reached out and felt around, but the bed was cold.
I wonder how long Pei Yan has been gone? Song Huan rubbed his eyes and relaxed.
Then her eyes lit up and she opened the system expectantly.
Have you completed the task of "consummating the marriage" with Pei Yan... huh?
Song Huan was confused. The mission title had not changed. It was still "Consummate the marriage with the target "Pei Yan"."
It still says "Unfinished," but... what the heck is this progress bar showing above "Unfinished"? "1/365"?
"Master System, are you still sick today? Have you recovered?"
System: "Dear, thank you for your concern. After one night, all the values of this system have been restored."
Song Huan: "Yeah, that's good."
The next second, Song Huan's tone suddenly changed: "Then please tell me! What's going on with the 'Consummate the Marriage' daily task? Why did a progress bar suddenly appear?!"
System: "Dear, the progress bar appears because the system detected that you had physical contact with the capture target "Pei Yan" for more than two hours last night."
Song Huan: "So...?"
System: "Dear, as long as you spend more than two hours a day with your capture target, Pei Yan, for 365 days, you can also complete the "Consummation of Marriage" mission."
Song Huan: "!!!" Furious! Trick the system!
"Why didn't you tell me earlier? And why wasn't there any hint about it during the mission?!"
System: "Dear, this is the hidden attribute of this quest. According to big data, 99% of travelers, even if they know this hidden attribute, will complete the "marriage consummation" quest in less than a year. Therefore, the system later removed this information from the "marriage consummation" quest."
Song Huan: "Haha... the remaining 1% aren't human?"
System: "The remaining 1% all failed their missions and their souls were scattered."
Song Huan: “…”
Suddenly scared. Cowardly.
"No... no exceptions?"
"What was the reason for the mission's failure?"
"How did they all die?"
System: "Dear, I'm sorry, this system cannot disclose it."
Song Huan: "...If you don't tell me, I'll suspect you're lying to me."
system:"……"
Song Huan: "Actually, I have another question."
System: "Dear, please speak."
"Hmm... Regarding the 'Consummation of Marriage' mission, what is the basis for your testing?"
Song Huan suddenly blushed. Logically speaking, a broken system couldn't even tell the difference between "a kiss" and "artificial respiration", so how could it know that she and Pei Yan hadn't really...consummated their marriage?
The system said in a serious electronic voice: "Dear, when you consummate your marriage with your capture target 'Pei Yan', your adrenaline will surge, your nerves will become excited, and your heartbeat will accelerate dramatically."
"This system can detect your heart rate..."
Song Huan: "...Oh, okay."
She slept soundly last night, and her heartbeat was not only accelerated, but it might even have been slower than during the day.
But then again, if she were to go for a brisk run one day, wouldn't her heartbeat also speed up?
However, the system shattered her fantasy the next second: "——And when you come into contact with the capture target 'Pei Yan', this system will also detect the capture target 'Pei Yan's' heart rate."
Song Huan: “…”
When she didn't think about anything.
Not long after, Jin Yue's voice came from outside the door: "Madam, are you awake?"
Song Huan: "Come in."
There was an obvious smile in Jin Yue's eyes. She pushed the door open with the prepared clothes in her arms, only to see that Song Huan was already dressed.
She couldn't help but chuckle and asked, "Madam, have you already known? I'm sure the Marquis has already told you last night, and yet he asked me to tell you again."
Song Huan was startled and asked, "What did you say?"
At this time, Jinle also walked in with a food box in his arms. Hearing this, he happily answered for Jinyue, "Madam, don't you know? The Marquis has agreed to let us stay in Fengyuan Town for a few more days. Moreover, the Marquis will personally take you to Fengyuan Town for a stroll today!"
Jinle was so excited that he didn't remember at all that he had said "The Marquis is so bad" last night.
Song Huan: "...Just stay in Fengyuan Town for a few more days? What about Ning County? Shall we go together?"
Jinle's cheerful face fell a little when she heard this. She turned to look at Jinyue and said, "Sister, did the Marquis say that we should go to Ning County together?"
Jin Yue looked at Song Huan, then at Jin Le, and slowly shook her head: "Madam, the Marquis's intention... is to send you back to the capital after these few days."
Song Huan: “…”
Is Pei Yan a devil?
Why did you insist on sending her back to the capital? !
"Where is he now?"
"My Lord...is in the lobby on the first floor, discussing something with Butler Pei and the others." Jin Yue was stunned for a moment before answering.
She looked at the lady...why did she seem not only unhappy, but also a little angry?
Song Huan was indeed a little angry. If he had known earlier, he should not have saved that guy yesterday!
However, she caught a glimpse of the lunch box in Jinle's hand, and her anger instantly subsided. She opened her eyes and said, "Have breakfast first, and then go downstairs to find him."
Jin Yue: “…” She was startled.
Jinle: "Okay, okay."
Song Huan: "Have you two had breakfast?"
Jin Yue nodded: "I have already eaten."
Jinle looked at Song Huan eagerly: "I..."
"Eat a little more." As a fellow food lover, Song Huan understood her expression.
I've eaten it, but I can eat it again.
Jinle's dark eyes lit up, "Thank you, Madam!"
Song Huan looked at Jin Yue and asked, "Want to have some together?"
Jin Yue looked a little embarrassed: "Thank you, Madam. But... I will get fat if I eat too much."
Song Huan: “…”
Same world, same troubles.
But why remind her?
Can I still eat happily?
But in fact...Song Huan still enjoyed the meal very much.
Even after eating, his anger towards Pei Yan completely disappeared without a trace.
. ……
When Song Huan came down to the lobby, she saw the old doctor with a white beard who had come to the inn last night on the wooden stairs. Pei Yan had his back to her and was saying something to him.
Song Huan couldn't hear clearly, but she saw the white-bearded old doctor's expression suddenly change, and his face was full of horror. It was obvious that he was frightened by Pei Yan.
Pei Yan must have said something bad... Song Huan walked down the wooden stairs, complaining in his heart.
Hearing the footsteps, Pei Yan glanced at the old doctor and whispered, "Doctor, do you understand?"
The old doctor with white beard bowed repeatedly, "I understand."
Pei Yan: "Pei Xi, send the doctor back to the clinic."
"Yes, Master."
"What is the old doctor telling you?" Song Huan walked over and asked with concern, "Are you okay?"
Pei Yan said in a deep voice: "It's okay, let's go."
Song Huan was stunned: "Now? Where to?"
Pei Yan frowned: "Jin Yue didn't tell you?"
"Didn't you say you finally came to Fengyuan Town and wanted to take a look before returning to Beijing? I will take you around the town today."
Song Huan's eyes curved with laughter. "My Lord, have you forgotten that today is the first day of the Lunar New Year? This early in the morning, everyone is busy paying New Year's greetings. I'm afraid no shop in town would be open for business."
Pei Yan frowned and asked, "Didn't Pei Xi and the others also go out and buy things yesterday on New Year's Eve?"
Song Huan: “…”
I was speechless for a moment.
I wonder if this guy didn’t pay New Year’s greetings to his elders when he was a child?
On the morning of the first day of the Lunar New Year, there really are no shops open.
"Let's go out after noon." Song Huan was not stubborn and quickly found an excuse. "I haven't packed my bag for the trip back to Beijing yet. I want to go back and pack it first..."
Are you so obedient this time? Are you not asking to go to Ning County with me anymore?
Pei Yan paused, then nodded and said, "Alright. It's still early, no rush."
Song Huan turned around and went back to his room.
After she left, Pei Yan called over Butler Pei and asked, "Will there be any shops open in town now?"
Butler Pei nodded with an embarrassed look on his face, "Usually they don't return until after noon."
Pei Yan's face instantly turned darker than the bottom of a pot. "When I asked you to prepare the carriage, why didn't you tell me that no shop would be open in town at this time?"
Butler Pei hesitated and said, "Master, I thought you wanted me to prepare first..."
Who could have expected that the master couldn't wait to go out as soon as the sun came out?
"Okay, leave now." Pei Yan waved away Butler Pei with a gloomy face.
. …
In fact, Song Huan and her friends' luggage had been packed by Jin Yue and Jin Le last night.
But after she returned to the room, she ordered Jinyue and Jinle to take out the packed bags.
Jinle raised his head and asked in confusion, "Madam, why did you take it out? It's so tiring."
Song Huan pinched her chubby little face and asked with a smile, "Jinle, do you want to go back to the capital, or to Ning County?"
Jinle's bright eyes suddenly dimmed, and he said, "Jinle wants to go to Ning County... Although the capital is much more prosperous than Ning County, Jinle can't go out of the palace to play in the capital, and there are no friends in the palace to play with Jinle."
"Ning County is different!" Jinle's eyes lit up again, and he said excitedly, "Jinle has a lot of friends in Ning County!"
"Yeah." Song Huan nodded. "You, listen to me now and take out your luggage. I promise we can all go to Ning County. But don't tell the Marquis, okay?"
Jinle nodded heavily, "Okay, ma'am."
An hour later, all the neatly arranged bags were taken out and scattered all over the room.
As soon as Pei Yan came in, he was stopped by the things in the room.
"Jinyue Jinle, you guys should step back first."
It was a cold winter day, and Jin Yue and Jin Le were sweating all over. Upon hearing this, they quickly put down the things in their hands and said, "Yes, Lord."
Song Huan's face was also covered with dense beads of sweat. Seeing Pei Yan taking the lead in bemoaning his misery, he said, "Why do I feel like the more I put things away, the more messy it becomes?"
Pei Yan: “…”
He knew that this woman would never be obedient.
So much of what he was thinking was written all over his face.
He said, "Don't you want to go back to the capital?"
Song Huan sighed and said quietly, "Why wouldn't I want to? I always listen to what the Marquis says."
Pei Yan frowned slightly and said, "Tell the truth."
Song Huan: "No."
She has said it many times.
She had to go to Ning County, but this guy refused to let her go.
"Then can I ask you something, my Lord?"
Pei Yan approached her: "What's the matter?"
Song Huan took a deep breath: "Why don't you want me to go to Ning County? Are you hiding another woman in Ning County?"
Pei Yan frowned and said in a bad tone, "This Marquis told you not to think about these useless things."
Song Huan was puzzled, "But I can't think of any other reason."
The system data has been restored. She checked the correct favorability and found that although the favorability did not increase to "+99", it was not a negative number as she thought, but "+52".
She also checked the history of her favorability and found that when this guy pushed her off the bed last night, her favorability not only did not turn negative, but it actually rose to a small peak, reaching "+60"... This at least shows that Pei Yan didn't insist on letting her return to Beijing because he hated her.
So what is the reason?
"You've been assassinated twice since you followed me... Don't you understand?"
Pei Yan looked at Song Huan, with a barely perceptible concern in his eyes, "Only by returning to Beijing can you be safe."
The author has something to say: Jinjin: I tried my best, but my hands are broken!
