The room was eerily quiet.

Cai Qi avoided the eyes of Cao Yilan and Guo Shaoyue and sighed helplessly.

"Okay, stop making trouble. Let's discuss the matter between the two of us when we go back. Are we making trouble outside because we are afraid that others will not see enough jokes? Come on, let's go home."

He originally wanted to let Cao Yilan go back to the Hou Mansion on the steps, but Cao Yilan seemed not to understand. She lowered her head to pick up a pen and wrote fluently, smiling without even raising her eyelids, making it clear that she would not give it to him.

face.

Guo Shaoyue felt sour in her heart after seeing this.

How dare Cao Yilan treat the young Marquis like this?

It was only Cao Yilan who dared to treat the young Marquis like this...

After all, Cao Yilan is still different to him.

Cai Qi didn't say it clearly, but between the lines, he and Cao Yilan were husband and wife, and she, Guo Shaoyue, was just an outsider.

At this moment, Guo Shaoyue seemed to finally understand why Cai Qi never said anything bad about Cao Yilan outside, even when he was drunk, he would never spit it out easily...

In the past, Guo Shaoyue thought that Cai Qi was afraid of embarrassment because Cao Yilan was too fierce and jealous.

Only now do I know that in Cai Qi's eyes, he and Cao Yilan are family members, and family scandals should not be made public.

"Let's go."

Cai Qi said it again, but Cao Yilan still ignored her and refused to give her another look.

Seeing Cai Qi helpless in front of her, lowering his head and sighing, Guo Shaoyue was filled with jealousy.

This is the dignity of the eldest daughter of the Cao family, and it is the confidence given to her by Cao Yilan's natal family. Unfortunately... her family is ruined, and she can only live by looking at people's faces.

"Young Madam..." Guo Shaoyue slowly walked over and saluted Cai Qi and Cao Yilan respectively. Her red eyes deliberately avoided Cai Qi's gaze.

"Everything is Shao Yue's fault. If young madam has any dissatisfaction, Shao Yue will be punished. Shao Yue... I have nothing to ask for. I just hope that you two can live in peace and harmony and don't quarrel because of Shao Yue...

"

"What does it have to do with you?" Cao Yilan suddenly raised her head and looked at her with ridiculing eyes, "How are my husband and I going to live our lives, and we still have to look at the face of a brothel girl like you?"

"Cao Yilan!" Cai Qi was dissatisfied with her interruption.

"Did I make a mistake? Isn't Lady Shaoyue a woman from a brothel?"

Cao Yilan's face still had that kind of wanton ridicule, she was aloof, she looked bitter and mean, but it was very different from usual.

Because she was no longer angry, yelling, and no longer hysterical insults and hatred, the whole person looked extremely calm, especially those black eyes that were cool and faint, as if there was a bottomless abyss...

Cai Qi felt cold in his heart.

"Okay, it's not my fault this time. If there's anything, we can discuss it when we go back. If we want to quarrel, we can go home and quarrel again. I don't want to make a fuss outside. Isn't it embarrassing?"

"It's embarrassing, it's so embarrassing."

Cao Yilan took the words and slowly pressed the paperweight on the written handwriting.

"Originally, I was thinking about you and I as husband and wife, and it should end amicably no matter what. I bought some food and wine to have a few drinks with you and say goodbye. Just like before, if we were unhappy, we would just drink a bottle of wine.

, it disappears when you wake up, but..."

Cao Yilan opened her eyes and took a look at Cai Qi and Guo Shaoyue.

"Now that I think about it, it's better to let it go. We have different hearts and it's hard to get back together. Let's let each other go. From now on, let's be happy."

Cai Qi looked at her in shock.

"What are you talking about?"

Couldn't she explain clearly?

Cao Yilan looked at Cai Qi's wide eyes, pointed at the handwriting on the table, and smiled calmly.

"I have written the letter of separation. When you are free one day, send someone to deliver the letter of release to the Cao Mansion. It will be regarded as the end of our relationship. I will ask Pei'er to go to the Hou Mansion in advance to collect my personal belongings.

Try not to cause you any trouble. As for the Marquis and Madam, I should

Go kowtow and say goodbye. After all, they have taken care of my temper for so long... But I, the daughter-in-law, have done a disgraceful job. After two years of marriage, I have not fulfilled any filial piety. I only care about the chicken and the goose fight all day long, and let them worry too...

So, I won’t go.”

"Cao Yilan!"

When Cai Qi met Cao Yilan, she was still a little girl with a bun. Cai Qi knew exactly what her temperament was, but he swore that he had never seen such a calm and terrifying Cao Yilan.

"Okay, if you want to make trouble, I will make trouble with you. Let's go back and close the door. You can scold and beat you as much as you want. Okay..."

For a family like theirs, reconciliation is not a trivial matter, and reconciliation cannot be achieved just by saying reconciliation. Therefore, Cai Qi believed that Cao Yilan was still angry with him because of Guo Shaoyue's matter.

Moreover, if there is a quarrel here, I guarantee that the neighbors next door can hear it clearly. Tomorrow, those tabloids in Bianjing will have more to write about.

Cai Qi didn't want to think about his family's affairs and being criticized all day long.

He spoke softly, strode over, grabbed Cao Yilan's wrist, and tried to drag her away.

"Pah!" Cao Yilan suddenly raised her hand, picked up the handwriting and slapped it on Cai Qi's face——

"Did I not make myself clear enough?"

Cai Qi's face is full of excitement.

Cao Yilan originally just wanted to throw the handwritten book at him, but unexpectedly she caught the wolf hairs. The wet pen and ink just fell along Cai Qi's handsome face, from nose to mouth, funny and funny...

Both of them were stunned.

Guo Shaoyue called out to the young marquis nervously, and quickly took the handkerchief to wipe it for Cai Qi.

Seeing this, Cao Yilan pushed Cai Qi away and rushed out in large strides.

"stop!:

·

In Zhang's house, just across the courtyard.

The hot summer night temperature boils a girl's heart to boiling point.

The dim light shines on Zhang Xun's naked back. The wheat-colored strong skin is covered with large and small scars, some of which have been scarred, and some of which have not yet healed. They are red, swollen and ferocious, but they stand out.

He was handsome and majestic. Recalling his decisiveness and prowess in helping Fan Lou that day, Zhao Runian's heart trembled, and his heart was confused to pieces...

Zhang Xun turned his back to her.

"Everything is done willingly by the minister. There is no need for the princess to be like this..."

"No!" Zhao Runian's fingers trembled slightly, and he gently applied the ointment to Zhang Xun's injured area.

"I... Zhang Lang, I am also willing."

"Princess."

"Don't move!"

"..."

"Does it hurt?"

"..."

"I'm asking you, does it hurt?"

"Well, it doesn't hurt..." Zhang Xun's voice was low and hoarse, "For the sake of the princess, I am willing to give up my life. This pain is nothing..."

"Zhang Lang, why are you so stupid?"

Zhao Runian suddenly put down the ointment, hugged Zhang Xun tightly from behind, and pressed his crimson face against the back of Zhang Xun's neck.

The stuffy air seemed to be on fire.

The girl's soft body, fragrant breath, and cold skin rubbed against the wound, causing slight pain.

Zhang Xun gritted his teeth and let out an unbearable hiss.

"Princess, don't be like this..."

Zhao Runian's face was red and her ears were hot, but she was firm and persistent, "You were injured because you were trying to save me. No matter what, I will not let this matter implicate you..."

Zhang Xun grabbed her wrist and said in a low voice: "Princess, please don't interfere in this matter, otherwise the officials will blame you. Even if I have ten heads, it won't be enough to cut off."

"Don't worry, my father loves me the most..."

"Princess, I am a humble widower, and I am not worthy of your entrustment for the rest of my life..."

"No! You are worthy. No one else is more worthy except you."

In Zhao Runian's opinion, Zhang Xun was different from any other man. She couldn't remember where this feeling came from. She only knew that the first time she saw him, when he appeared in front of her like a god descending, she felt

She knew that this man would be the love of her life.

But Zhang Lang was very cautious and refused to go overboard with her. Even when he helped her to protect her, he had to be careful for fear of offending her...

This is love.

Zhao Runian felt as if there was a fire in his heart.
