First-rank palace maid Su Jixiang

Later he found out that her name was Qu Wanning, and she happened to be the daughter the Qu family was looking for.

So he used his position to bring Qu Wanning to the Black Tiger Army...

Now he once again used his power to make her marry him.

Xie Yingfeng looked down at his hands. They were white and belonged to the hands of a scholar. He used to hate people who abused their power for personal gain, but now he had become one of them.

Xie Yingfeng sighed, but he did not regret it...

The crying sounds in the room gradually disappeared. Xie Yingfeng stood up straight and returned to the barracks again.

"Now that you've finished crying, let's take a look at the fabric." Xie Yingfeng smiled slightly and took out all the fabrics he had found and showed them to Qu Wanning.

Qu Wanning's eyes were still slightly red, and she looked at Xie Yingfeng who had suddenly become strong in a bit of surprise.

In Qu Wanning's impression, Xie Yingfeng always had a smile on his face. He spoke gently and never got angry at anyone.

But even though he was smiling today, his tone was so strong that it was like an irresistible command.

"I don't want to see it." Qu Wanning shook his head.

"I think this is a good look, suitable for everyday use." Xie Yingfeng seemed to have not heard what Qu Wanning said, and drew a white pattern with dark floral patterns. "This color is not ostentatious, it is low-key, and it looks noble, which is the best for you. I like it too."

"But I don't like it!" Qu Wanning didn't know what was wrong with him and he had to confront Xie Yingfeng.

She knew that Xie Yingfeng liked moon white, and most of his clothes were this color.

But this color is not white enough, not noble enough, not pure enough, and not flamboyant enough! Wei Ling likes to wear black! Black is cool enough, noble enough, pure enough, and flamboyant enough!

"So what color do you like?" Xie Yingfeng asked good-temperedly.

Qu Wanning said nothing and turned away.

She doesn't know either.

"Okay, since you don't want to choose, let me choose for you." Xie Yingfeng said slowly.

"Then I'll go back!" Qu Wanning stood up and saluted expressionlessly.

Just as Qu Wanning was about to leave, Xie Yingfeng said, "I know deep down you don't want to marry me, but I sincerely want to marry you. The marriage has been granted, and neither you nor I can change anything. But I am still willing to wait. Even after we get married, I am willing to wait until you change your mind. But I won't wait forever. Maybe one day I will be tired and stop waiting."

Qu Wanning paused for only a moment before he walked forward again and left without looking back.

After Qu Wanning left, Xie Yingfeng sat down on the chair in frustration.

He raised his hand and pressed his slightly sore temple. Actually, what he said to Qu Wanning just now was not entirely true. He was willing to wait forever, but he was afraid that she would not be so patient, so he added that he was tired of waiting, because he was afraid that she would get tired first...

Two days later, Wei Ling really took time out to invite Su Jixiang to go out together.

It was the first time that Su Jixiang and Wei Ling walked together on the streets of Mangcheng.

There were many people in Mangcheng who knew Wei Ling, and they would greet him every two steps along the way.

Although Wei Ling looked indifferent, those people still saluted enthusiastically. However, they would not come forward, nor would they greet him, nor would they ask what the relationship between Su Jixiang and Wei Ling was.

Su Jixiang thought this was good. After all, she felt awkward walking with Wei Ling. Now that Wei Ling's attention was drawn to the greetings, she seemed relatively relaxed.

Su Jixiang was brought by Wei Ling to a house.

"This is..." Su Jixiang looked at the gate. It didn't look very eye-catching. It was not in the bustling center, but a little off the gate. It looked very quiet. There was a big tree at the gate. It was winter now, and it was covered with snow. It was impossible to tell what kind of tree it was.

"This is the house I bought." Wei Ling said slowly.

He opened the front door and walked in with Su Jixiang.

This is a courtyard with three entrances and three exits. It is not big, but it is very spacious to live in. There is also a backyard, which is very large and has an abandoned pond... There is also a pavilion beside the pond.

"I bought this place secretly a few years ago." Wei Ling said after taking Su Jixiang for a tour. "At that time, I only had so much money, and I could only buy a house this big."

After saying that, he stopped and looked at Su Jixiang, "If you think this place is not good enough, I can change to a bigger one."

"That's good enough!" Su Jixiang was stunned, then immediately said, "No need to change it! There are only two of us living here, why would we need such a big room? It's too tiring to clean it every day!"

Wei Ling looked at Su Jixiang deeply, and his deep gaze made Su Jixiang's face turn red for no reason.

"I mean... this is where we're going to live after we get married..." Su Jixiang explained quickly, stuttering a little... She probably didn't misunderstand...

"Yes." Wei Ling nodded, "But even if I change to a bigger one, you don't need to clean it. I will ask the human traffickers to buy some people to help."

Su Jixiang only felt his face getting hotter.

Although she liked to hear this, she always felt that it was a little unreal...

In fact, she had never had any idea about the arranged marriage. Even though others had been talking about it from the capital until now, Wei Ling had not taken any actual action, so she did not take it seriously.

Today, Wei Ling brought her here, showed her the house, and told her how to live in the future. Only then did she truly have a practical concept of the word marriage.

After getting married, two people will really live together...

Su Jixiang was a little uneasy.

She has lived for two lifetimes and has never been married.

"Are you afraid of me?" Seeing Su Jixiang's uneasiness, Wei Ling couldn't help but frown.

"Ah?" Su Jixiang raised his eyes and met Wei Ling's icy eyes. "No."

She had even seen Wei Ling "dancing striptease" in front of her before, so why should she be afraid of him?

Her anxiety comes from fear of the unknown.

She didn't know what she would become after getting married...

She hasn't even really fallen in love with Wei Ling yet, and they are about to get married!

"That's good." Wei Ling said calmly, "I don't hit my own women. You don't have to be afraid of me."

Su Jixiang...

If you dare to hit me, I will beat you to death!

"Since you are satisfied with this place, let's go buy some furniture." Wei Ling said to Su Jixiang, "and buy a few servants." He paused and said, "But we are of special status, so you should listen to me when buying servants."

"Oh." Su Jixiang nodded. You are the boss, you have the final say. It's you who pays anyway, so you can buy a man made of gold if you want.
