Chapter 206 "She deserves punishment."
The door was half-open, and a fine light filtered through the crack and fell onto the screen with the exquisite and magnificent painting of a Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains.
The thick screen concealed the figures of both of them. Rong Xuanzhou's figure was elongated by the sunlight and fell on the screen.
Jiang Hui stood in front of the door, blocking Rong Xuanzhou's steps forward.
Rong Xuanzhou heard the soft, low cry of a woman behind the screen.
The sound was as small as a fly's, so thin and dense, as if it didn't want to be seen.
Rong Xuanzhou clenched his fists and frowned, "Brother, this is a private matter between me and Pei. Please ask her to come over. If she does anything wrong, I will punish her!"
The crying behind the screen became softer, replaced by Rong Jianxue's emotionless sneer.
"Your personal matters?"
"Yes, Pei Shi is certainly wrong, and it is right for me, her husband, to punish her. So, there is no need to trouble you, big brother!"
He heard the man chuckle nonchalantly.
Then Pei Jingxu's crying became louder.
Rong Xuanzhou frowned even more tightly upon seeing this, and spoke coldly to Pei Jingxu behind the screen, "Pei Jingxu, if you give in, I'll let Big Brother not punish you!"
——He still remembered the slap she gave him last night.
Rong Xuanzhou was naturally angry, but he was in front of his elder brother after all, so he was prepared to give Pei Jingxu a way out.
The woman behind the screen didn't answer, but sobbed softly.
The place where Rong Xuanzhou was stopped was still some distance away from the study door. From his perspective, he could not see anything except the intricate and exquisite screen with a Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains.
"Pei! Did you hear that?" Rong Xuanzhou lost his temper when Pei Jingxu didn't respond. "As long as you apologize and give in now, I won't let my brother punish you!"
My brother has always been fair and just. Now that he has punished Pei in this way, Pei, a woman, must have cried out because she couldn't bear it.
Although Rong Xuanzhou was still angry with Pei Jingxu, they were husband and wife after all, and these private matters should not be brought to the surface.
——He was giving Pei Jingxu a chance to admit his mistake and make peace.
Jiang Hui's hearing is much stronger than Rong Xuanzhou's.
So, even though he had his back to the door, he could still hear the slight rustling sound of clothes rubbing against each other through the crack in the door.
"Pei Jingxu, a husband is the leader of his wife. I am your husband, shouldn't you admit your mistakes to me?!"
"As long as you admit your mistake, I will let Big Brother not punish you!"
He raised his voice very high, as if he was afraid that the woman behind the screen couldn't hear him.
"Husband?"
A man's low and hoarse voice came from behind the screen, as if he licked his back teeth and chewed out these two words.
Someone knocked over the inkstone on the table!
The pure white rice paper fluttered down, blocking Rong Xuanzhou's already limited vision.
In a trance, following the fluttering rice paper, Rong Xuanzhou seemed to see half of a white and slender jade arm.
Her skin was as white as cream, and she wore a valuable jade bracelet on her wrist. If you looked more closely, you could even see the red mark on the center of her wrist.
But it was only for a moment.
The next second, the outstretched slender hand was grabbed without explanation by another large hand with bulging veins, and was ruthlessly pulled back behind the screen.
The speed was too fast, and the papers in the sky acted as a cover, so Rong Xuanzhou just thought he was seeing things.
From behind the screen came the man's low, indistinguishable voice: "She deserves to be punished."
He said she deserved to be punished.
She couldn't refuse at all, nor did she intend to give Rong Xuanzhou "face".
Rong Xuanzhou widened his eyes and for a moment even thought that he had misheard.
"Brother! This is between us as husband and wife—"
"Shut up."
Private matter.
Before Rong Xuanzhou could finish his words, the man coldly interrupted him.
Completely lost patience.
"Jiang Hui." Rong Jianxue said in a deep voice.
Jiang Hui understood, turned around and said "yes", then made a "please" gesture towards Rong Xuanzhou: "Second Young Master, my young master is very angry now, please go back first."
Rong Xuanzhou frowned even tighter, his voice stiff and cold: "Brother——"
"Second Young Master," Jiang Hui stood in front of Rong Xuanzhou, refusing to budge, "Please return."
Pei Jingxu never spoke a word to him from beginning to end.
A fierce look flashed in Rong Xuanzhou's eyes, and his thoughts were shrouded in anger.
He took one last look at the door and said in a deep voice, "Pei Jingxu, if you miss this opportunity, I will never forgive you easily no matter how much you beg me in the future!"
After saying that, Rong Xuanzhou snorted coldly and left in a huff!
Watching Rong Xuanzhou walk away, Jiang Hui's back tensed up and a thin layer of sweat appeared.
Without saying a word, he tiptoed to the door and closed it again.
Leave quietly.
The inkstone fell on the woman's skirt, and the large stains of ink were so thick that they could not be removed.
The man's aqua-blue robe was also stained with ink. On the delicate silk, the ink rolled down his robe and flowed like the compassionate eyes of a god or Buddha shedding tears.
Grabbing her lower abdomen, Rong Jianxue bit the back of her neck and gathered all her drooping black hair to her chest.
The tip of the thumb was stained with ink.
He pressed her neck, and the drop of ink flowed down her concave spine and disappeared into the shallow dimple of her waist.
"Who is the husband?"
He asked her this, pinching her chin with one hand, and demanding her answer stubbornly and obstinately.
"Pei Jingxu, who is your husband?"
With his hand pinching her waist, Pei Jingxu's entire weight fell on him.
Tears welled up in the corners of her eyes, and Pei Jingxu's voice trembled: "I, I have divorced him..."
You've already signed and sealed it, why are you still fussing over this?
"So, Pei Jingxu, who is your husband?"
He persisted and used a little more force.
"Rong...Rong Jianxue..."
"Explain clearly."
"Rong Jianxue... is my husband..."
It’s like receiving the mercy of gods and Buddhas.
Therefore, the gods and Buddhas gave her supreme joy.
The drop of ink hidden in the waist began to shake.
The ink on the spine spread to both sides, as if to outline her spine and imprint a branch of peach blossoms on her spine.
…
I slept until the second half of the night.
Pei Jingxu opened his eyes in a daze and found himself lying on the bed in the inner room of the study.
She opened her mouth to call Hongyao, but as soon as she opened her mouth, she found that her voice was very hoarse.
——Rong Jianxue is a lunatic and a bastard!
Cursing the man in his heart, Pei Jingxu propped himself up and prepared to get out of bed to drink some water.
As soon as he got out of bed, Pei Jingxu's legs went weak and he almost fell to the ground.
She staggered and eventually fell back onto the bed.
Hongyao, who had been waiting outside the door, heard the sound and pushed the door open and walked in: "Miss, you are finally awake!"
Pei Jingxu felt much more at ease when he saw Hongyao.
Hongyao walked forward, poured a glass of water for Pei Jingxu and presented it to her.
Pei Jingxu moistened his dry lips several times before finding his voice again: "Where's Rong Jianxue?"
Hongyao said softly, "The eldest master helped you change your clothes and made sure you rested, then he went back to the Rong family."
Pei Jingxu frowned slightly: "Going back to Rong's house?"
"Yes," Hongyao nodded, "The eldest son went with the divorce agreement. In my opinion, he should have given it to the second son."
Pei Jingxu raised his eyebrows slightly and lowered his eyelids.
Rong Jianxue completely cut off her retreat.
Taking a deep breath, a hint of determination flashed in Pei Jingxu's eyes: In this case, her only choice now is to have a baby as soon as possible.
Touching his flat belly, Pei Jingxu frowned slightly.
Why is there no movement yet?
Pei Jingxu thought that given Rong Jianxue's excessive indulgence in sexual activities, there shouldn't have been any movement for so long.
Just as I was thinking about whether I should find time to go to the pharmacy to get some medicine tomorrow, I heard footsteps outside the door.
Rong Jianxue is back.
