My Lord, please respect yourself. I am the wife of a marquis.

Chapter 44 A guest has arrived, it's time for you to get up

The man didn't check, nor did he expect her to be so bold. He let her touch his hands all over. Her slightly cool fingers brushed across his face, bringing waves of shivers.

"Madam, you are really brave."

It felt smooth to the touch, just like normal skin. This person's disguise technique had reached the pinnacle. Even taking into account her experiences in her previous life, she couldn't think of anyone else who had such a skill.

Su Muxi looked down at the ripples in the teacup, trying to figure out who he was.

The man drank the tea in one gulp and said, "An Yutang went to Guanshan City, He Yuncheng was trapped in Yeshanpo, and the two princes were also stranded in the capital due to some matters. The two-finger housekeeper of the Duke's Mansion was also invited by me to have tea together. If Madam is restless and the tea is finished, it will not be fun."

Saying Erzhi's name accurately was a warning to her that she was isolated and helpless, no one came to rescue her, and she had a hostage in his hands.

Su Muxi took a sip of tea and said, "He who knows the current situation is a hero. I understand."

After threatening everyone, the man walked to the low couch where Su Muxi wanted to sit and lay down on it. He was very tired after traveling for several days in a row, and he also realized how difficult Su Muxi was.

When he was on the road, she slept; when he slept, she would act up. Starting from the official post station, whenever they stopped to rest, she would do this over and over again, tormenting them all night long and not letting them rest.

The two women had conflicting auras, and he had to prevent them from fighting each other, so he had no choice but to change his strategy and keep an eye on them himself.

Be it threats or intimidation, he just wants to have a good rest today.

Su Muxi held the teacup and drank tea slowly. Based on her understanding of Xiao Yunjin, the wild hillside with wind blowing in from all sides could not trap him at all. The conversation just now also confirmed this. It had been three days since she was kidnapped, and the news was delayed. They could no longer find out any news about Xiao Yunjin.

She has disappeared for a few days, and the capital is probably full of rumors. I wonder if Xiao Yunjin can release a woman with a stigma?

She had also made the decision on impulse. If she could get a divorce or be divorced, she wouldn't have to fight with Xiao Yunjin. Protecting her family was her greatest wish in life.

Of course, if she could still make things difficult for Xiao Yunjin after the divorce, she would be very willing to do so.

With a click, the teacup fell to the ground and shattered. This was the fifth teacup of the night. The man sat up and looked at Su Muxi dimly, "Madam, how long are you going to make a fuss?"

Su Muxi picked up the candle that had been burning for half the night, and the room became a little brighter. "There are guests coming, young master, you should get up."

The man was disturbed by her and couldn't sleep all night. Just as he was about to speak, the door was kicked open with a bang. Five or six men in black came in, holding scimitars and rushed towards the man.

He was unaware of someone touching him at the door. Su Muxi broke the teacup five times overnight. He thought it was the same as before, just making him sleep less, but he didn't expect it was the story of the sheep coming.

The sound of the teacup breaking covered up the intruder's footsteps. The person was already close, and he had no time to care about anything else. He reached out to grab Su Muxi, but as soon as his foot touched the ground, he stepped on the broken teacup. The fragments all over the ground became a trap to block his way.

He hesitated for only a moment before the candlelight poured down on his head. He waved his sleeves to dodge, but this gave Su Muxi a chance to escape.

After Su Muxi swept the candlelight towards him, she stood up and took a step back, hiding herself behind the man in black.

The disguised man not only had superb disguise skills, but was also good at martial arts. Several people fought with him, but they were unable to defeat him for a while.
