Where prosperity ends, flowers never end

Xu Yuanchao waited elegantly in the hall. After a while, Ran Qianxi came in with a package.

"Let's go."

Xiahou Jin let out a long sigh, his daughter was really not afraid of death.

"You have to be obedient when you move in, okay?"

Ran Qianxi waved her hand disapprovingly.

"Oh, don't worry, mom. I won't pick a fight with him."

"You stupid girl! Show some respect to Marquis Yu An!"

"Don't worry, I know murder is against the law."

"Tsk, look at you."

Xu Yuanchao stood up calmly, and this normal movement looked particularly handsome.

"Don't worry, Lady Xiahou. I never deliberately make things difficult for others."

Xiahou Jin smiled. Since the Queen Mother had spoken personally, he would probably not dare to make things difficult for him.

"Master Marquis, please."

Xu Yuanchao nodded, and the two of them walked out of the lobby. He naturally took the bag from Ran Qianxi's hand without feeling anything was wrong.

Ran Qianxi: "I can carry it."

Xu Yuanchao: "I know."

He responded calmly, offering his hand to help her into the carriage.

"Be careful."

Ran Qianxi also naturally put her hand on it.

Two people were sitting side by side in the car. Xu Yuanchao reached out and held her hand, but Ran Qianxi pulled his hand back instantly.

"Hey? Are you kidding me?"

He suddenly became gloomy and had to try hard to convince himself that the time was not right.

"It's okay if you don't want to lead now."

Ran Qianxi glanced at him disapprovingly and said nothing.

Yu'an Marquis Mansion

Ran Qianxi was brought into the house by him in a swagger, and Xu Mingxuan ran out immediately.

"What are you doing? You really moved in!"

Ran Qianxi frowned.

"Yeah, surprise, right? You'll have a stepmother from now on."

Xu Mingxuan's speech was slurred.

"You, you, you...I don't agree!"

Ran Qianxi smiled and pushed him away with her shoulder.

"Whether you agree or not, just get out of the way."

Xu Yuanchao followed silently, and Xu Mingxuan deeply smelled the scent of crisis.

"Fox spirit! I'm so mad at you!"

Ran Qianxi went straight to the east wing, and Xu Yuanchao followed him in. Unexpectedly, as soon as he put down his bag, Ran Qianxi fell on his chest.

"two…"

Ran Qianxi kissed him vigorously, not letting go of any of his nerves, making him gasp for air due to the itch.

"Uh... Er... Xier~"

Ran Qianxi slowly took off her coat. At this moment, she had no emotion at all and was completely controlled by lust.

She pushed him to the bed little by little, pushed him down, took off her dress and sat on it.

"After that, go to bed."

Xu Yuanchao raised his upper body, put his arms around her slender neck and kissed her actively.

"it is good."

The next day—

Xu Mingxuan had already gone to school, Xu Yuanchao was busy with court affairs and inspecting work at the Ministry of War. He did not return home until three quarters after 15:00. Ran Qianxi was copying a book.

"Hey? You're back?"

She put down her brush and walked forward happily. Xu Yuanchao was in a trance for a moment. This was the feeling of someone waiting for him to come home.

"I just finished my work."

Ran Qianxi smiled playfully.

"Come and take a look at what I copied. I've worked hard today and I'll have finished copying it in a few days."

Xu Yuanchao strode forward and had already copied one third of the thick legal code.

"Copying so fast..."

"Huh? What did you say?"

Xu Yuanchao muttered to himself, but Ran Qianxi did not hear the disappointment in his words.

"I said it was a good copy."

“Haha, I copied it carefully.”

Xu Yuanchao sat in front of the hall with dignity.

"You are so attentive, but you don't want to stay here?"

He picked up the hot tea and waited nervously for Ran Qianxi's response.

"No, I'll finish copying it quickly and save you some trouble."

"I don't think you're a bother."

Ran Qianxi raised her eyebrows and walked forward in surprise.

"You're not kidding?"

Xu Yuanchao took a sip of hot tea and put the teacup back.

"Have you had your meal?"

"I was concentrating on copying books and wasn't hungry, so I didn't eat."

Xu Yuanchao raised her eyes slowly. She obviously wanted to finish copying quickly so that she could leave early.

"So sleepless and forgetful..."

"Hahaha, yes, yes, shouldn't there be some kind of reward?"

Xu Yuanchao stood up and left, already unhappy.

"Then hurry up and copy it. You don't have to eat."

Ran Qianxi wasn't hungry to begin with, so she didn't think much about it and sat back to continue copying as punished. But seeing that she didn't care, Xu Yuanchao became even angrier.

"If you can't finish copying today, you won't have to eat dinner!"

Ran Qianxi's eyes suddenly widened!

"What?"

Xu Yuanchao left with his hands behind his back.

"Don't you want to copy it?"

Ran Qianxi: "Damn it, you're trying to starve me to death!"

evening-

Ran Qianxi spent another half a day copying, but she had lost her fighting spirit and did not finish copying even part B.

"It's really hard to live!"

She put down the brush and walked angrily into Xu Yuanchao's study. The concubine was helping him grind ink. When she saw her come in, she started rubbing Xu Yuanchao's shoulders.

Xu Yuanchao: "Have you finished copying?"

Ran Qianxi didn't have him in her heart, so naturally she didn't care about the intimate behavior between his concubine and him.

“Can you finish copying it in one day?”

Xu Yuanchao did not raise his eyes, but continued to handle official business.

"Didn't you say that you would be able to finish copying it in time?"

Ran Qianxi stepped forward helplessly and slammed the table hard.

"Do you understand what 'given time' means? Did you really buy your title of marquis with money?!"

Xu Yuan raised the corner of his mouth slightly and put down the document.

"I am a military commander, not a scholar."

"I don't care. I'm hungry and don't want to copy anymore. You order someone to prepare food!"

Xu Yuanchao picked up the document again and began to read it leisurely.

"If you can't finish copying, you won't have food to eat. Don't you want to waste time in my house? Just finish copying overnight and go home early."

Ran Qianxi was furious and strode forward. Xu Yuan looked at her, but unexpectedly she hugged him and kissed him!

Xu Yuan tightened his body, immediately grabbed her slender waist and kissed her deeply, then lifted her up onto her legs.

He kissed her so passionately that his Adam's apple kept moving. The concubine tactfully left the study.

"Don't leave, okay?"

Ran Qianxi took off her clothes while kissing.

"Then you treat me to a meal."

"it is good."

Time passed quickly like turning the pages of a book. Half a month had passed, and Ran Qianxi still hadn't finished copying.

Xu Yuanchao didn't want her to leave, so he stipulated that she should only copy for half a day, and the remaining half day should be used for recitation.

Having not seen Ran Qianxi for many days, Tan Qianhuan went straight to the Marquis' Mansion and took her away.

"Godfather, where are you taking me?"

"Today is the Spring Equinox. How about taking Xier for a boat trip on the lake?"

"Okay, okay, that's great. I'm going crazy from copying books."

Tan Qianhuan smiled faintly and raised his hand to touch her.

"Buy some snacks for Xier first."

"Why are you so nice to me today?"

Tan Qianhuan took Ran Qianxi's hand.

"Silly, I have always been like this."
