Ba Liang hid behind a pillar, Xue Qing's reproachful gaze seeming to pierce through him.
"You idiot! I trusted you so much, and you actually tried to play dirty tricks on me?" Xueqing angrily stepped forward and grabbed his ear. "You've gotten bolder, haven't you? So, you and your son-in-law are both trying to deceive my young lady?"
"Ouch, ouch, ouch! Good sister, I know I was wrong, please let go..." Finally escaping the clutches, Ba Liang covered his ears and took a few steps back, looking embarrassed. "Sister Xue Qing, please don't be angry!"
Xueqing crossed her arms and glared at him, a forced smile on her face: "Fine, then give me a reason not to be angry."
Ba Liang peeked into the room and waved to Xue Qing.
She looked suspicious and followed him to one side of the corridor.
Ba Liang chuckled twice and lowered his voice: "Sister, think about it, the young master and the young mistress have been married for almost a year and there's still no progress. Do you think you'd be anxious? Putting everything else aside, our mistress's hair is almost turning white from worry!"
In the first few months after their marriage, Chi's mother would occasionally ask him indirectly about him, but now, perhaps having given up hope, she simply stopped asking altogether.
After all, if you don't have expectations, you won't be disappointed.
Xue Qing blinked slowly, as if that made sense.
Ba Liang frowned and looked distressed: "Look at these two. The young mistress is dignified, and the young master is very disciplined, afraid of offending her. You don't know, it took the young master a lot of courage to take this step!"
Xue Qing frowned slightly, her heart moved.
Now that you mention it, the son-in-law seems to be in a pretty bad situation?
If this happened in an ordinary family, who could bear not sleeping in the same room for almost a year?
Her heart began to waver. A noise came from inside the room, and the two of them were startled at the same time. One looked up at the sky, and the other looked down at the ground, perfectly in sync.
Chi Yan carried Shen Tangning out, his eyes beaming with pride. She buried her face in his chest, only her reddened ears showing.
Without even glancing at the two idiots over there, Chi Yan strode straight back to his bedroom, turned around, and slammed the door shut with his foot.
Only after he entered the house did Xueqing and Balang dare to peek out from behind the pillar.
Ba Liang clicked his tongue in amazement: "I've never seen the young master so happy before!"
Xueqing had mixed feelings. On one hand, she was happy for her young mistress, but on the other hand, she felt a little uncomfortable. She glared at him and said irritably, "Go and prepare hot water. The kitchen must be closed by now."
...
Shen Tangning was placed on the couch, her face still flushed. Her eyes held a hint of reproach: "It's all your fault. If word gets out tomorrow, I wonder what people will think of us!"
If she hadn't stopped him, he would have dared to do whatever he wanted in the study!
She truly never imagined that he had such a... dissolute side!
"Who dares to laugh?" Chi Yan said dismissively, smiling as he leaned down to kiss her cheek. "Don't worry, they wouldn't dare."
Seeing her face grow even redder, he became interested and began pecking at her repeatedly, as if he had discovered something rare, and he sighed softly:
"Ah Ning, your face is so red."
Shen Tangning sensed his intention, feeling both shy and speechless. She narrowed her eyes slightly, then suddenly reached out and hooked her hand around his belt, pulling it forward gently.
Her belt came undone, and her hands deftly climbed up his chest, her fingertips drawing circles intentionally or unintentionally.
Chi Yan froze, his face turning bright red. He looked at her helplessly, his eyes filled with a hint of pity.
Shen Tangning replied with a half-smile, "Your face is also very red."
He was far more shameless. He grabbed her mischievous hand and held it in his palm. His eyes darkened, and he leaned in with a smile: "It can get even redder. Do you want to see, Aning?"
"Shameless!" she muttered under her breath, biting her lip, and deliberately pushed him away with a stern face to hide her racing heart. "You smell terrible, go take a shower!"
In the heat of the moment, Chi Yan wasn't about to let her go. He pretended not to hear and lingered to kiss her, as if he knew she was into that: "A-Ning, I'm drunk and can't wash myself..."
That sticky texture, who wouldn't find it disgusting?
Shen Tangning was both annoyed and amused: "..."
