The strange female partner in Quick Wear is too sexy

Chapter 358: Seizing the Minister’s Wife 10

Xie Lan quietly accompanied Sheng Rao to finish breakfast.

"I'm full, Mr. Xie, I should go back now."

Sheng Rao is preparing to return to her own farm.

"Don't worry, Madam. I'm leaving today because something happened at home. But don't worry, I will definitely be back as soon as possible."

Xie Lan explained it seriously to Sheng Rao, fearing that Sheng Rao would misunderstand that he was just impulsive towards her.

"Mr. Xie, there is no need to explain. You have done enough for me." There was indeed some disappointment in Sheng Rao's tone.

"Madam, I will rush back after I finish dealing with my family affairs. I will arrange for someone to protect you, and I will also arrange your divorce as soon as possible."

Seeing Sheng Rao like this, Xie Lan felt anxious. He knew that Sheng Rao might have misunderstood him, so he hurried to explain.

Sheng Rao looked at Xie Lan's anxious look, and her heart moved slightly. She understood that Xie Lan really cared about her and wanted to help her.

Although their relationship was somewhat complicated, Sheng Rao knew that at this time, she needed Xie Lan's help.

"Mr. Xie, I..." Sheng Rao was about to say something but was interrupted by Xie Lan.

"Madam, you don't have to say more. I understand your intentions. I will deal with the things at home as soon as possible and then come back to help you." Xie Lan's voice was firm, as if telling Sheng Rao that he would definitely do it.

"I just want to say that I have my own arrangements for the divorce, so I won't bother you anymore."

"Madam, do you not believe me?"

Hearing Sheng Rao's words, Xie Lan suddenly became anxious.

Sheng Rao shook her head: "Mr. Xie, this is my family affair after all. It's not good for an outsider like you to interfere. Besides, you and I..."

Sheng Rao bit her lip but was too embarrassed to say the last sentence.

"Madam, you should know that I have you in my heart. I don't ask for too much. I just want you to have me in your heart."

Xie Lan's words made Sheng Rao's heart tighten. She didn't expect Xie Lan to express his feelings so directly.

"Master Xie, I understand your feelings, but I am really confused right now. Also, I don't deserve you to do this for me. I've been married before, and I'm really not worthy of Master Xie."

Sheng Rao lowered her head as she spoke.

Xie Lan knew that Sheng Rao was feeling inferior, but he didn't care whether she was married or not. He just wanted her as a person, and he didn't care about anything else.

"Sheng Rao, so what if you've been married? That doesn't mean you are inferior to anyone else. In my heart, you are the most special person. Your kindness, your tenacity, and your talent all deeply attract me. I am willing to give everything for you. I only hope that you can give me a chance to prove to you that I am worthy of your lifelong trust." Xie Lan's voice was full of sincerity and determination.

Sheng Rao looked up at Xie Lan. Her deep eyes were filled with love for her, which made her feel warm in her heart.

How could this man say that! She was about to agree directly, but her character couldn't be ruined.

"Thank you, Master. I..." Sheng Rao hesitated to speak. She didn't know how to respond to this feeling.

"Madam, you don't have to answer me so quickly. I can wait." Xie Lan smiled gently. He knew that Sheng Rao needed time to accept him, and he was willing to wait.

"Thank you, Mr. Xie. I will think about it carefully." Sheng Rao finally nodded.

Xie Lan was overjoyed when he saw Sheng Rao finally give in. He knew that he had taken the first step towards success.

He held Sheng Rao's hand and looked at her affectionately: "Madam, I will wait for you, and you should also wait for me to come back."

Sheng Rao nodded slightly and said nothing.

"You must take good care of yourself when I'm not around." Xie Lan took Sheng Rao's hand and instructed seriously.

"You too."

"I'll take you back first. I've already detained the thieves from last night. They'll be useful when necessary. Don't act rashly. Wait for me to come back."

Xie Lan was afraid that Sheng Rao couldn't deal with Huo Changwen and his concubine alone.

It seems that he needs to hurry up, as he doesn't want to see her have anything to do with the Huo family again.

Sheng Rao nodded gently, she knew that Xie Lan's worries were not unnecessary.

Ever since the original owner married Huo Changwen, that family has never given her any warmth or peace.

Now, the original owner was driven out and sent to the manor, so her relationship with Huo Changwen was in name only. But the Huo family was still her nominal home after all, and it was not so easy for her to leave. Not only was there Liu Ruyan behind Huo Changwen who wanted her life, but even Princess Mingtang Lin Mingyue also wanted her dead.

Xie Lan personally sent Sheng Rao back to her farm. Neither of them spoke along the way, but Sheng Rao could feel the warmth and strength from Xie Lan's hand.

Everyone in the village belongs to Sheng Rao, so even if someone sees the two of them holding hands, no one dares to say anything. After all, their lives are in her hands.

After Xie Lan sent Sheng Rao to the gate of the manor, he did not leave immediately. Instead, he stood there and watched her walk into the manor until her figure completely disappeared from his sight. He turned and left, his heart full of longing and worry for Sheng Rao.

In the afternoon, Xie Lan set off to return to the palace. He had been out for some time and needed to take care of the palace affairs.

Xie Lan was holding a memorial, his mind full of Sheng Rao. The memorial reported all matters big and small, and also advised him to choose a concubine. He had not taken anyone into the palace for many years since he ascended the throne.

The Queen Mother and the ministers in the court were already extremely impatient; they even thought that Xie Lan had some unspeakable secret.

Xie Lan has never been interested in women. He felt troubled when he thought about getting in touch with other women. It’s not that he hates women, but they just don’t arouse his interest.

But Sheng Rao was different. He felt he could hold Sheng Rao all day long without letting go.

"emperor."

The servant beside him reminded him softly, interrupting Xie Lan's thoughts.

"What's the matter?" Xie Lan put down the memorial, with a hint of impatience in his tone.

"The Empress Dowager asks you to go to the Cining Palace." The attendant replied respectfully.

Xie Lan frowned slightly, he knew that the empress dowager called him over this time just to select a concubine. Although he was unhappy, he could not offend the empress dowager, so he had to get up and go to the Cining Palace.

In the Cining Palace, the empress dowager was sitting on a soft couch, holding a string of Buddhist beads in her hand. Her face was kind and majestic. When she saw Xie Lan come in, she nodded slightly and motioned for him to sit down.

"Your Majesty, you have been on the throne for many years, but the harem has always been empty. This makes the ministers in the court and I very worried." The Queen Mother spoke slowly, with a hint of blame in her tone.

"Mother, I know what you mean, but I already have a candidate in mind. When the time is right, I will welcome her into the palace." Xie Lan answered calmly, with a firm tone in her voice.

The Queen Mother raised her eyebrows when she heard this, with a hint of surprise in her eyes: "Oh? The Emperor has already chosen someone? I wonder which daughter she is?"
