Su Qingwan naturally missed breakfast and lunch on the second day. When she woke up, the sun was setting.

Yan Mingjue was standing by her side. As soon as she made any movement, he came over immediately and said loudly:

"Put the food on the table."

As he said this, he began to help Su Qingwan change her clothes in a familiar manner.

He seemed to enjoy doing this.

When he saw Su Qingwan obediently letting him put on her clothes, he felt particularly satisfied.

However, today, Su Qingwan did not give him such benefits.

She avoided his hand and put on her clothes with shaking hands.

Yan Mingjue frowned slightly:

"Stop it, your hands are shaking."

Su Qingwan raised her eyes and looked at him sadly:

"Who do I blame?"

Yan Mingjue: "..."

Yan Mingjue was at a loss for words and felt even more guilty, especially when he saw the marks on Su Qingwan's body, he felt like a beast.

There was not a single good spot on Su Qingwan's body, especially her back, which was covered in bruises and scratches, and looked particularly creepy.

Yan Mingjue discovered this when he was applying medicine to Su Qingwan.

There was a rare hint of annoyance in his eyes. It must have been yesterday at the hot spring when she leaned against the rock wall...

Her skin was delicate to begin with, and his hands were too rough, leaving marks on her body, not to mention the rock wall.

"Not next time."

Yan Mingjue gave in, and Su Qingwan did not insist any longer, mainly because she really did not have the strength to put on the clothes.

After putting on clothes, Qinshu came in with food.

Su Qingwan felt particularly satisfied with the chicken soup that had been simmered for a long time and a few side dishes.

After she was full, Yan Mingjue picked up the bowl and chopsticks and cleared away all the leftovers.

Su Qingwan was a little surprised. Qinshu beside her whispered:

"My son-in-law hasn't eaten all day. He said he wants to wait for Miss to eat together."

Su Qingwan felt warm in her heart, and the only bit of unhappiness that remained in her heart disappeared.

We can't go shopping today, so it's quite cozy just reading our own books together.

Su Qingwan's gaze unconsciously fell on Yan Mingjue.

She discovered that Yan Mingjue loved reading. She had been to his study and saw all kinds of books there. This was completely inconsistent with the rumors about him outside.

As far as she knew, the people in Yingliao were all cruel and ruthless.

At this time, Yan Mingjue was sitting there, holding a book in one hand, looking like a modest gentleman.

She couldn't help but said:

"My husband likes reading?"

"kindness!"

Yan Mingjue responded, and seeing that Su Qingwan seemed a little curious, he hesitated for a moment and said:

"When I was young, I wanted to take the imperial examination."

After hearing what he said, Su Qingwan realized that she actually didn't know Yan Mingjue.

Whether in the previous life or this life, all she knew was that Yan Mingjue left his family and worked his way up from the Eagle House. He had no connections and relied entirely on himself.

Except when he was killing people, ransacking their homes and interrogating them, Yan Mingjue didn't look like a member of the Eagle House at all.

His behavior and some small details in daily life show that he is well-educated and more like the son of a powerful family.

However, no one knew his background, which family he came from, or why he entered the Eagle House.

Yan Mingjue stopped talking after saying that, and Su Qingwan tactfully didn't ask any more questions.

On the second day, Su Qingwan felt a little more relaxed, and Yan Mingjue wrapped her up tightly before going out.

There is nothing fun to do in Zhuangzi in winter, but it does feel more peaceful.

Seeing that the masters were bored, the manager of the manor suggested that they go to the mountain behind to take a look.

"In winter, big wild animals won't come out, but there are still some hares and pheasants, which is quite interesting."

Su Qingwan had never had such an experience before, and she immediately became interested.

She glanced at Yan Mingjue, who couldn't say no and simply asked Lei Yu and Jing Zhe to prepare.

It was not until they reached the foot of the mountain that Su Qingwan realized why the person in charge looked at her with an expression that made him hesitate to speak.

There was thick snow on the mountain, and her pearl brocade shoes made it impossible for her to climb up.

Just as she showed regret on her face, Yan Mingjue had already walked up to her and bent down.

"Come up!"
