Chapter 192 Ah Xu, where is the bracelet I gave you?
As Rong Xuanzhou spoke, there was a strong hint of alcohol between his brows.
All the guests around left.
Only the two brothers were left sitting at the dining table, with a hint of similarity in their eyes and brows.
Rong Jianxue's dark eyes were silent as she looked back at Rong Xuanzhou in front of her.
——The younger brother whom he has loved and cared for since childhood.
Inexplicably, Rong Jianxue suddenly remembered that time when she had a high fever in the carriage, but she kept calling his name.
She called him Brother Xuanzhou.
——She always mistakes them for each other.
With a slight frown, Rong Jianxue's gaze wandered over the man.
Indifferent and calm.
Rong Xuanzhou had a hint of smile on his lips, but he looked at Rong Jianxue with a hazy look and spoke incoherently.
"Brother, Ah Xu is my wife..."
Rong Jianxue's eyes were cold and calm.
"She and I, we sleep together in life and study together in death."
When he said this, the smile on Rong Xuanzhou's face disappeared, and he looked at Rong Jianxue with a solemn look.
Rong Jianxue met Rong Xuanzhou's gaze without dodging or evading.
"I've said before, no one can live without the other," Rong Jianxue said calmly and indifferently, "and she doesn't like to share her husband's love with others."
Rong Xuanzhou sneered, his tone somewhat nonchalant: "Throughout history, which man hasn't had three wives and four concubines? I can't indulge her every whim."
Rong Jianxue's dark eyes were stern: "Giving support to the one you love is not indulgence, it is a responsibility."
Rong Xuanzhou smiled deeply, his head lowered, as if he had heard something funny.
Then he raised his head again, raised his eyebrows slightly, and the smile on his lips disappeared: "Brother, don't you know that the person she loves the most is me?"
"Really?" Rong Jianxue said calmly, looking at him with eyes as cold as snow. "Then what are you afraid of?"
I said these words to him while I was drunk.
He asked him, Rong Xuanzhou, what are you afraid of?
There was a hint of coldness in his eyes.
Rong Xuanzhou staggered to his feet, pushed away Jiang Hui who was about to help him, and stumbled towards the west courtyard.
For a moment, Rong Jianxue and Jiang Hui were the only ones left in the huge front yard.
Watching Rong Xuanzhou's departing figure, Jiang Hui swallowed his saliva, turned to Rong Jianxue, and asked cautiously, "Master, where are we going now?"
Rong Jianxue's face didn't look good.
He stood up slowly and said, "Tell her to come see me in the study."
After leaving a word, Rong Jianxue turned and left.
Jiang Hui stood there in a daze, wanting to cry but unable to.
Pei Jingxu sent away the guests who came to the banquet and stood outside the mansion gate, not in a hurry to go back.
Hongyao walked over from a distance and came to Pei Jingxu's side, whispering, "Miss, Bai has taken her two children... to the Eastern Palace."
Upon hearing this, Pei Jingxu raised his eyebrows slightly and a smile appeared at the corner of his lips.
Come to think of it, I was humiliated at Rong Mansion today, and because of what Ah Xuan said, I don’t have the face to go back to Rong Mansion for the next few days.
So I should take this opportunity to build a good relationship with Shen Qianfan.
It’s better if Bai Shutong is not around, so she doesn’t have to bother dealing with her.
After returning to Rong Mansion, Pei Jingxu met Jiang Hui in the front yard.
Jiang Hui chuckled dryly and saluted Pei Jingxu, "Second Madam, the Master said... to ask you to go to the study to find him."
Pei Jingxu nodded after hearing this: "I understand."
After asking the servants to clear up the banquet, Pei Jingxu walked towards the study in the east courtyard.
But before she could even reach the study, a servant from the west courtyard came hurriedly with a report: "Second Madam! The young master is drunk and feeling very uncomfortable. The old lady said that she wants you to go...to his bedside to serve him."
Move the Rong family out.
Pei Jingxu frowned, not wanting to go. "Ask the kitchen to make some hangover soup for him. I have some things to do here... I'll be there later."
The servant probably guessed Pei Jingxu would say this, so he bowed again and said, "Second Madam, please forgive me. The old lady said... that you should go now."
Pei Jingxu: “…”
Without saying anything else, Pei Jingxu frowned, turned around and walked towards the west courtyard.
…
Ever since Rong Xuanzhou came back, Pei Jingxu rarely came to the master bedroom in the west courtyard.
When he just came back, he refused to sleep with her in the name of holding a religious ceremony. Later, Nuonuo fell ill many times and occupied the master bedroom. Bai Shutong could come and go freely, but she, the legal wife, was stopped outside the door.
At this time, Pei Jingxu was standing outside the bedroom door. He walked in easily without being stopped by any servants.
As soon as she entered the door, a porcelain bowl shattered at her feet!
With a "pop" sound!
Inside the room, Rong Xuanzhou's face was gloomy and his words were slurred. He threw the bowl of soup he had just cooked out, "Get out! Get out now!"
"Where's Pei Jingxu? Let Pei Jingxu come see me!"
Pei Jingxu frowned slightly and stood at the entrance with an indifferent and calm expression.
When the servants saw Pei Jingxu, they were like seeing a savior and hurriedly bowed to her and said, "Greetings, Second Madam."
On the bed, the originally angry man suddenly fell silent.
Through a thin curtain, Rong Xuanzhou narrowed his slightly drunken eyes and spoke in a hoarse voice, "Ah Xu, come and keep me company."
Tsk.
Pei Jingxu was a little annoyed.
——He clearly knew that her soft-hearted nature was the same as Rong Xuanzhou when he was young.
Therefore, he used it with ease and mastery.
In fact, Pei Jingxu is not a very sentimental person, but Rong Xuanzhou was the only man who moved her heart when she was young. For Pei Jingxu now, that soft-heartedness is more like charity to Rong Xuanzhou.
——He was wasting the few good impressions she had of him during their youth.
With a slight frown, Pei Jingxu took a few steps forward and stood outside the curtain separating the inner and outer rooms.
The hazy shadows highlight the woman's graceful and outstanding figure.
She didn't come any closer.
Rong Xuanzhou frowned upon seeing this: "Ah Xu, come in."
He said this again.
Pei Jingxu didn't move.
For some reason, Rong Xuanzhou felt a little panicked.
The panic was indescribable. She was clearly right in front of him, but there was only a thin veil between them.
But Rong Xuanzhou always felt that he couldn't catch her.
Thinking of this, he no longer hesitated, opened the quilt, and stumbled out of bed.
He walked to the curtain and pulled it open almost in a panic.
The woman's eyes were calm and indifferent, and there was a hint of coldness in the look she gave him.
As if it could pierce through him.
——She guessed it.
I guessed that he wanted to use the affection he had in his youth to keep her.
Something seemed to be blocking his throat. Rong Xuanzhou pursed his lips and said in a low, hoarse voice, "Ah Xu, I'm drunk..."
As he said this, he reached out to grab her hand.
Pei Jingxu barely avoided it.
His fingertips slid across the fine jade bracelet on her wrist.
In a flash, he suddenly remembered that a long time ago, before he went to war, he gave her a jade bracelet.
She looked at him with tears in her eyes and told him that she would always wear it on her hand.
But now, there is nothing else on that beautiful wrist bone except the jade bracelet of excellent water quality.
Rong Xuanzhou's voice trembled, and the corners of his eyes turned red: "A Xu, where is the bracelet I gave you?"
