Gradually, the sky became completely dark, and the lotus lanterns on the lake were blown by the wind, creating ripples on the water.

Yu Wangfei placed a black piece on the chessboard in front of him and said, "Your Highness invited me here with great fanfare, could it be that he just wants to play a game of chess?"

"Look at you." Chu Yuheng smiled into Shangyu Wangfei's eyes and uttered two words.

He naturally had other ideas, but if Yu Wangfei didn't like it, he wouldn't force it.

"What did you say?" Yu Wangfei pretended not to hear him, picked up the chess piece and placed another one.

Not to mention that the pavilion is surrounded by open space, if he did that, he would definitely be watched by people on the shore, not to mention that Yu Wangfei didn't have that idea at all.

Seeing that Yu Wangfei didn't respond, Chu Yuheng understood what she meant and took the initiative to change the subject: "The theater has been cleaned up. You can go in and take a look when you go back tomorrow."

Now they are in Jinghu Pavilion outside the city. The city gates are closed at this hour, so it is impossible to return to the city at night. They can only go back tomorrow morning when the city gates open.

It just so happened that the theater was on the road that Yu Wangfei had to take on his way home, so he could go in and take a look without arousing suspicion from the Gu family.

"Okay." Yu Wangfei agreed, "I believe in the prince's vision. He will definitely decorate the theater very gorgeously."

When Chu Yuheng was in a daze, Yu Wangfei suddenly took over and ate three of his chess pieces: "My Lord, don't be distracted while playing chess."

Chu Yuheng smiled without saying anything and continued playing chess with her.

Many times, Chu Yuheng wanted to let Yu Wangfei leave Cheng'en Marquis Mansion and come to his side. He now has the ability to keep Yu Wangfei under his wing and protect her well.

Especially after hearing Yunhua's report, he hated the Gu family even more and wanted to take direct action against the Gu family and kick them out of the court.

But after learning how Yu Wangfei dealt with the Gu family and how she won every quarrel, Chu Yuheng gave up this idea.

He thought that the Gu family was Yu Wangfei's own business and she was capable of handling it herself. He only needed to protect her in secret from being stabbed in the back by the Gu family.

Because Yu Wangfei was not a canary raised by a wealthy family, she was an eagle that could soar into the sky.

Naturally, there is no need to protect her under one's wings, because she is the wing.

When Yu Wangfei leaves the Gu family through her own efforts, that will be the time for him to marry her.

"I heard that you are getting a divorce?" Chu Yuheng asked tentatively.

"It's fake." Yu Wangfei looked a little unhappy. "The Gu family can't let me go now. Besides, I still have unfinished business in the Gu family, so I won't leave easily."

She hasn't made the Gu family pay the price they deserve, so how could she move out easily?

Only by living in the Cheng'en Marquis Mansion can you have the opportunity to see their end.

"Do you still like Gu Baizhou?" Chu Yuheng didn't understand why Yu Wangfei said the divorce was fake. Had she never thought about leaving the Gu family?

"How can it be."

When Yu Wangfei heard the three words "Gu Baizhou", she felt sick.

"I have other things to do, and I will divorce you after I finish them."

Hearing that Yu Wangfei still wanted to divorce, Chu Yuheng couldn't help but raise the corner of his mouth: "If you have nowhere to go after the divorce, the palace will always be your home."

Yu Wangfei, who was thinking about the chess layout, was suddenly stunned. She raised her head and met Chu Yuheng's burning eyes.

The two played chess all night and returned to the carriage at dawn.

Since there was only one carriage, Chu Yuheng followed Yu Wangfei and got in without saying a word.

Helpless, Yu Wangfei had to move to the side.

Because she hadn't slept all night, Yu Wangfei felt a little sleepy when she entered the carriage. The fragrance in the carriage was too quiet, so she closed her eyes unconsciously.

Seeing this, Chu Yuheng immediately got on her and let her lean on his shoulder and slowly fall asleep.

When the carriage entered the city and drove near the theater, Yunhua lifted the curtain to wake up Yu Wangfei, but was glared back by Chu Yuheng.

Yunhua immediately understood what was going on, so he deliberately drove around the city twice, and only drove towards the Marquis' Mansion after Yu Wangfei woke up.

In order not to be exposed, Chu Yuheng also took the initiative to get out of the car after Yu Wangfei woke up.

The weird Yu Wangfei didn't know what happened in the car. She just felt that Chu Yuheng was a little weird. He got out of the car without saying a word to her and flew out directly.

After returning to Fangfei Garden, Yu Wangfei planned to take a short rest, but unexpectedly Gu Baizhou and Yu Qiaoqiao rushed in with their men.

Looking at the look on her face, I thought she had committed a serious mistake and was going to be taken to the authorities.

"You took all the dowry away?" Gu Baizhou asked directly.

In his heart, Yu Wangfei was not a selfish person, so he didn't believe that Yu Wangfei would do something like taking away the dowry.

It turned out that he came about the dowry, and Yu Wangfei suddenly lost her sleepiness.

"It's me, why can't I take my dowry?" Yu Wangfei asked back, "Could it be that my dowry will become your Gu family's property after it arrives at your Gu family?"

She knew that Gu Baizhou cared about his reputation and would not directly admit that the Gu family wanted to swallow up her dowry.

Thinking of Yu Wangfei's drastic change in personality in recent days, Gu Baizhou didn't dare to argue with her and could only play the victim.

"Wang Fei, you also know the situation at home. The expenses at home are high and the mansion is indeed short of money. You can take out some of your dowry to help them first. When the mansion has money, I will definitely pay it back."

The words sounded really nice, but Yu Wangfei didn't believe that they could pay back the money.

The lesson from her previous life was still fresh in her mind. How could she let the Gu family touch even a little bit of her dowry again?

"What if I say no?" Yu Wangfei stared at Gu Baizhou expressionlessly.

"Sister, this is your fault. Look, I even gave out my dowry for the Marquis' Mansion, but you, as the legal wife, didn't show any appreciation at all." Yu Qiaoqiao sighed, "It seems that you don't consider us as a family."

"You're right, I really don't consider you as my family." Yu Wangfei sneered, "Why should I give you my dowry?"

She doesn't care what others say. In her previous life, she cared too much about what others said, so she believed the lies of the Gu family.

"You!" Yu Qiaoqiao never thought that Yu Wangfei would say this, and she was so angry that she wanted to raise her hand and slap him.

"Want to hit me?" Yu Wangfei took a step forward and looked at her provocatively.

Yu Qiaoqiao naturally did not dare to attack Yu Wangfei. Not to mention that she was pregnant with the Seventh Prince's child, she had just been sent back by the Seventh Prince this morning, which meant that she had already won the Seventh Prince's favor.

Under such circumstances, how could Yu Qiaoqiao dare to attack Yu Wangfei?

"You've already married me and will always be a member of the Gu family. You and the Gu family share weal and woe. Do you want to watch the Gu family go down in flames without lending a helping hand?" Gu Baizhou took a few deep breaths and looked at Yu Wangfei in disbelief.
