Sir Song, do you want to pledge yourself to me?

After a few days of contact, Ji's father has found a suitable candidate for the head of the village, Qi Bo, an old farmer who works here.

Qi Bo's farming skills are naturally beyond words, and his character has been tested by time. It is worth mentioning that Qi Bo has five strong and healthy sons at home. If the farm is handed over to them, Ji's father will not have to worry about Qi Bo not being able to control his men in his absence.

Ji's father stayed behind to take over the affairs of the farm, and Ji Nuan had to go to Jun Xianlan for the final detoxification. So, the next day, she went straight back to the city with Song Jinbai.

When leaving, Song Jinbai behaved very well in front of Ji's father, sitting upright with Song Huai outside the carriage. As soon as they walked a distance, he left Song Huai to drive the carriage alone and got into the carriage impatiently.

Ji Nuan teased, "Hey, Mr. Song, who was so polite just now, why is he getting into the girl's carriage now?"

Song Jinbai didn't show any embarrassment on his face. Instead, he smiled and took Ji Nuan into his arms. His fingers gently pinched the soft flesh on her waist, and he said lovingly, "Nuan'er loves to tease me. I'm doing this so that your uncle can rest assured that you can go back to the city with me."

Ji Nuan's ticklish spots were all on her waist. She giggled when being pinched and begged for mercy: "Don't pinch, don't pinch, I'm ticklish."

Song Huai, who was driving a carriage outside, heard the laughter coming from behind him and the corners of his mouth unconsciously rose.

It’s great that the adults finally found the girl they like.

After the master gets married, he can also ask his wife for a wife.

In the future, I will have another child and let him grow up with the little master.

Ji Nuan found a comfortable position and nestled into Song Jinbai's arms. She was still worried about an unfinished business: the revenge she had received from the men in black, which she hadn't avenged to this day.

"Have you figured out who orchestrated the black-clad men who surrounded and attacked us in Jinfeng Village?"

Song Jinbai played with her fingers, "Hmm. I know someone who is good at using trifoliate darts. It's not difficult to prove this."

Ji Nuan narrowed her eyes slightly, quietly hiding the sharp light in her eyes, "Who is that person?"

No one can let her suffer such a huge loss. She must get back this debt.

"Liu Wanfang's foster brother, Liu Hu. Liu Wanfang is my father's concubine."

The relationship is so complicated. If it had nothing to do with Liu Wanfang, Song Jinbai would not have mentioned it specifically.

Ji Nuan confirmed: "Is Liu Hu under the orders of Concubine Liu?"

"Ah."

Upon hearing this, Ji Nuan stood up and looked back at him. His eyes were as calm as a deep lake, without a single ripple.

Apparently, this isn't the first time.

"Did she also attack from behind during the Taohua Creek incident?"

Her voice suddenly turned cold, hiding an uncontrollable violent aura.

Song Jinbai let out a sarcastic smile and said disdainfully, "Well, she's set her sights on the position of Crown Prince of the Xuanwei Marquisate. She might have resorted to some roundabout tactics in the past, but since leaving the capital this time, her methods have become much more direct, sending assassins."

Ji Nuan frowned, "You just let her bully you, don't you know how to fight back?"

These words sounded like a reprimand, but Song Jinbai could tell from them that Ji Nuan felt sorry for him.

He gently scratched Ji Nuan's nose with his fingertips, a smile on his face, "Do you think I look like someone who wouldn't fight back after being bullied?"

Ji Nuan puffed up her cheeks, "Then tell me, how did you fight back against her? If it's not enough, I'll make it up to you."

Song Jinbai chuckled, a cunning glint in his eyes. "Isn't she obsessed with getting a title for her good nephew? The first time, I had someone secretly break her nephew's legs to teach him a lesson. The second time, I beheaded all the assassins she sent and sent the heads to her. She was so scared that she stayed in bed for half a month, not even daring to leave the house. This time, how do you want me to repay her?"

Ji Nuan gently stroked the red mark on Song Jinbai's chin with her fingertips, and said the most brutal words in the gentlest voice.

"I've modified the Yellow Spring that struck Jun Xianlan and named it Bone Erosion. We'll return the dart on your back to her nephew intact, so he'll be reminded of Concubine Liu from time to time. What do you say?"

Song Jinbai felt as if a spring breeze was blowing through his heart, making him feel warm.

"Okay, I'll do as you say." He held up Ji Nuan's porcelain-white face and looked at her, "Nuan'er, you are so nice, I like you."

"Well, you too." Ji Nuan leaned over to his chin and pecked it lightly.

Song Jinbai was stunned for a moment, his face flushed with shame. It took him a long time to come back to his senses and he hugged Ji Nuan.

To prove he wasn't so soft-hearted, Song Jinbai had just revealed all the ways he'd fought back against Liu Wanfang and her nephew. Thinking back on it now, he couldn't help but feel a little uneasy.

After hesitating for a moment, Song Jinbai finally asked, "You don't think I'm being too cruel when I fight back like this, do you?"

Ji Nuan: "They came here to take your life. You are already merciful by doing this. At least, you didn't harm their lives, but only taught them a lesson."

Ji Nuan patted Song Jinbai's chest and said with a smile, "Okay, let go quickly, I'm dying of heat!"

Song Jinbai, like a child asking for candy, said mischievously, "Kiss me again and I'll let you go."

Ji Nuan shook her head and said in a fake angry tone, "No, let go first."

Song Jinbai immediately learned to bargain: "Then you go home with me for lunch at noon, and I will let you go."

"Okay, I'll go to your house for lunch."

Seeing that Ji Nuan agreed, Song Jinbai made a new request: "After you treat Jun Xianlan, you have to personally check my injuries."

"I promised you, can you let me go now?"

Song Jinbai finally let go of Ji Nuan, but his face was filled with grievance. "After you applied the medicine on me last time, they didn't even bother with the thing you put on the wound. Until now, I haven't changed the medicine. I can't see the wound on my back. Is the flesh rotten now?"

When a handsome man feels wronged, he needs to be coaxed.

This little look was indeed adorable. Ji Nuan chuckled, "Don't worry, the meat won't rot! I've already taken care of it for you. It's okay if you don't change the medicine. Why are you feeling so wronged? I'll give you a closer look after I'm done."

Song Huai outside rubbed his arms unconsciously to shake off the non-existent goose bumps on his body.

Hey! Why did the Lord suddenly speak so much like Aunt Liu?

This coquettish tone is simply unbelievable.
