His cool pine scent immediately enveloped Yu Huan, who looked extremely uncomfortable and said hurriedly:

"What do you want to do?"

Pei Junheng plucked the fallen leaves from her hair, sat up straight, raised his slender knuckles slightly, looked at her seriously, and asked:

"What does Huanhuan think I want to do?"

Yu Huan's cheeks suddenly turned red. So she misunderstood?

She thought he suddenly came closer because he wanted to kiss her.

Pei Junheng stared into her rolling black eyes and silently curled his lips, "Huanhuan, you don't think I want to kiss you, do you?"

"Who... who thought that?" Yu Huan immediately retorted.

"Huanhuan, are you feeling unwell? Why did you suddenly start stuttering?" Pei Junheng looked at her seriously without a trace of smile on his face.

Yu Huan's brows sank, and his tone was filled with anger, "Pei Junheng, you did it on purpose!"

Her little face was wrinkled into a ball, like a kitten with its fur standing on end.

Pei Junheng couldn't help but chuckle, "Huanhuan is cute even when she's angry."

Yu Huan felt like he had been punched in a swamp. Not only was he furious, but he was also stuck.

Just as she was about to turn around, she saw that Pei Junheng's heartbeat value had risen to 66%!

Heavenly Bodhisattva!

This rise is too fast!

Will she be able to escape from Pei Junheng's clutches in the future?

If Pei Junheng's heartbeat value reaches 100, and she has no love for him at that time, will he keep her imprisoned by his side like Xie Wenzhou did?

No!

She just wants to go back to her mother!

Although several of my best friends have found their ideal husbands here.

But she has no one in her heart and still prefers to return to the modern era.

Pei Junheng followed her gaze upwards, "Why is Huanhuan making such a fuss at the air?"

Yu Huan's thoughts were interrupted, but he still couldn't accept the news for a while.

She pondered for a while, then lowered her voice and said:

"Pei Junheng, I have a cheerful personality and am not suitable to be a good wife. Why don't you try to get along with other women?"

As she finished her words, the surroundings fell into deathly silence.

The temperature also dropped sharply by several degrees.

Pei Junheng's face gradually turned colder, with a thin layer of frost covering his brows. He spoke in a deep voice, "Are you chasing me away?"

"I'm not trying to drive you away," Yu Huan said, "but I'm greedy and lustful, and I don't want to be with someone forever."

Pei Junheng sneered, "So Madam wants to have three wives and four concubines like men."

His eyes were like vines, tightly wrapped around her, and he spoke word by word:

"From now on, you are my only wife, and I am your only husband. You may think of looking for an actor, but you cannot actually do it."

Yu Huan: “…”

So domineering.

She is only allowed to think, not to look for it.

It’s better not to let her think about it.

He was really too excited at the moment.

I'm afraid I won't be able to stop for a while.

Yu Huan sighed inwardly, thinking of taking things one step at a time.

Pei Junheng bent down slightly, looked at her closely, and said with a slightly aggrieved tone:

"Are you sure you don't want me anymore? You're the only one I have."

Yu Huan's heart trembled slightly. It was the first time she saw him look like such a wronged dog.

There was an unknown emotion surging in her heart, and she couldn't figure out what it was for a while.

Pei Junheng sighed, "Huanhuan probably likes being the queen. Once I lose the throne, you will change your mind."

"Who likes to be the queen?" Yu Huan frowned.

Pei Junheng's dim eyes lit up again, and his lips curled slightly, "I knew Huanhuan wouldn't abandon me."

Yu Huan's eyebrows twitched, and he realized that he had jumped into the pit he had dug.

Pei Junheng curled his thin lips slightly, looking happy.

"Pei Junheng, you're making excuses." Yu Huan frowned, "When did I ever say that?"

"Isn't this what Huanhuan meant by what she said just now?" Pei Junheng said, "I know Huanhuan is shy and doesn't like to speak too clearly. I understand that."

Yu Huan: “…” He really knows how to brainwash himself.

That's it.

Whatever he says is whatever he says.

Too lazy to argue with him.

...

Xie Wenzhou took Pei Wanyue to another carriage.

They sat facing each other.

A faint fragrance rose from the incense burner on the table, quickly enveloping them.

Pei Wanyue lowered her eyes slightly, not knowing where to put her hands, feeling confused and at a loss.

She felt a burning gaze on her, and became even more uneasy.

Xie Wenzhou's cold eyes softened a little, he clenched his fist and held it in front of her eyes, his voice was very soft:

"Little Wan, guess what's inside?"

Pei Wanyue slowly raised her eyes and asked suspiciously, "Is it candied fruit?"

"Little Awan, open it and take a look." Xie Wenzhou said.

Pei Wanyue got his permission and bravely tried to pry his hand apart.

The next moment, he opened his hands, and a crescent-shaped sachet lay in his palms.

Pei Wanyue's pupils widened slightly, her butterfly-like eyelashes flickered slightly, she stretched out her jade hand to wrap it in her palm, and opened her lips to say:

"Thank you."

She thought she would never see the crescent-shaped sachet again.

I never expected to be seen by Brother Zhou by chance.

And returned it to his own hands.

She thought that no matter what happened in the past, she would never throw away the crescent-shaped sachet.

Xie Wenzhou frowned and sighed:

"Little A-wan doesn't call me Brother A-zhou anymore, and now she won't even call me Master Xie. I'm the one who hurt Little A-wan's heart."

"Thank you, Master." Pei Wanyue called out obediently.

How could Xie Wenzhou have expected her to cooperate so well?

He suddenly became a little greedy and coaxed, "Little A'wan, be good and call A'zhou brother."

"Oh, then I'm not obedient." Pei Wanyue was not afraid to look him in the eye, and her tone of voice was extremely serious.

Xie Wenzhou's eyes paused slightly, and he laughed out of anger, "After not seeing you for so many years, little A'wan is still so rebellious."

"Don't you remember me? How do you know I'm a traitor?" Pei Wanyue asked in confusion.

"I confused you two. I haven't forgotten what I experienced in my youth." Xie Wenzhou explained in a low voice.

Pei Wanyue nodded thoughtfully and said nothing more.

Xie Wenzhou took the small hand warmer on the table, wrapped it with a brocade handkerchief, and then sat down next to Pei Wanyue.

Pei Wanyue paused for a moment, "Master Xie, what are you doing?"

Xie Wenzhou bent his back slightly, lowered his eyes to look at her red and slightly swollen eye circles, and said softly: "I'll give you a hot compress."

"No need..." Pei Wanyue refused subconsciously.

A deep and unyielding voice came from above her head, "Don't move."

Xie Wenzhou caught a glimpse of her quivering eyelashes and realized he had frightened her. He softened his tone, "Little Wan, be good and close your eyes."

Pei Wanyue pursed her cherry lips lightly, and finally closed her eyes obediently.

The warmth fell on her eyes, spread through her skin into her body, and her blood began to boil.

He was too close to her, and his aura was overwhelming, making it impossible to escape.

She clenched the crescent-shaped sachet between her fingertips, feeling extremely nervous.

Xie Wenzhou stroked her tender and juicy red lips, then landed on her slightly furrowed brows, smoothing them with his fingertips.

"Xiao Wan, relax."

Pei Wanyue's tense back gradually relaxed and she leaned softly against the car wall.

Her eyes felt very comfortable from the heat, and she gradually felt sleepy and fell asleep.

Xie Wenzhou heard a low breathing sound in his ear, and the corner of his lips raised slightly.

...

The wind and snow continued to blow between heaven and earth, with no signs of stopping, but instead getting heavier.

The ground was covered with layer upon layer of thick snow, the wheels made a squeaking sound, and it was even difficult to move forward.

Han Ye turned around and reported:

"Your Highness, it's snowing hard and windy right now, making it difficult to move. Do you want to find a place to rest?"

Xiao Chenyuan wrapped Shen Pianzhi in a blanket, his eyes swept across her peaceful sleeping face, and he said slowly:

"Then let's find a place to rest. When the wind and snow stop, we can continue on our journey."

A quarter of an hour later, they arrived in nearby Lin County.

The carriage soon stopped in front of an inn.

Han Ye went in for less than a moment and then came out again, bowing and saying to the carriage:

"Your Highness, the innkeeper said that there have been continuous snowstorms recently, and all the rooms in the inn are booked."

"He also said that there are no vacant rooms in any of the inns in Lin County. What should we do?"

Shen Pianzhi, who was taking a nap on Xiao Chenyuan's legs, woke up when she heard the noise.

She blinked her sparkling eyes, looked at his sharp jawline, and asked in a low voice:

"Xiao Chenyuan, are we going to sleep on the streets?"

Although they could stay in the carriage.

But the wind and snow showed no signs of stopping in the short term.

It is really inconvenient to stay in the car for too long.

Besides, who can predict celestial phenomena?

What if it hails later?

Xiao Chenyuan gently rubbed her hair, "No."

After that, he said in a stern voice, "Since that's the case, let's go buy the houses around here."

"Yes, Your Highness." Han Ye said.

He led a group of armored guards and knocked on every door.

Those people had never heard of such a large sum of money before, and they were just staying for a few days.

They agreed immediately.

After a while, they packed up their bags, accepted several thousand taels of silver, and said with a smile:

"Sir, you can come in and stay as long as you want. We are going to live with your uncle's great uncle's aunt's second aunt's uncle."

Han Ye felt dizzy after hearing this string of tongue twisters. He quickly waved his hands and said, "Go... go."

After they left, Han Ye turned back to report.

The armored guards were moving their belongings into the mansion.

Yu Huan jumped out of the car and rushed into the wind and snow.

Pei Junheng held her waist and brought her close to him, holding up an umbrella to shield her from the wind and snow. "Don't run around, be careful not to catch a cold."

"I won't catch a cold, just let me go."

"If I don't let you go, you'll be like a loach. If I let you go, I won't be able to catch you."

When Yu Huan heard his analogy, she frowned in dissatisfaction, "Pei Junheng, you are the loach."

"Whatever my little ancestor says is what it is." Pei Junheng's brows were filled with doting.

Yu Huan looked into his burning eyes, then quickly looked away, retorting in a low voice, "Who is your ancestor..."

Although her voice was not loud, it still reached Pei Junheng's ears.

Pei Junheng keenly caught the resistance in her tone, concealed the loneliness in his eyes, and walked with her to the door of the mansion and stopped.

Xie Wenzhou also walked slowly over with Pei Wanyue.

His umbrella was always tilted towards Pei Wanyue.

The wind and snow seemed to be getting stronger. Xie Wenzhou's arms were covered with frozen snow particles and were soaked with water.

Pei Wanyue looked at the umbrella above her head, then quickly glanced at Xie Wenzhou, frowning and saying:

"Why are you tilting the umbrella towards me? Your shoulders are wet."

Xie Wenzhou just smiled calmly and said, "No problem."

Pei Wanyue felt a mixture of emotions in her heart, and she lowered her eyes and remained silent.

Yu Huan nudged Pei Junheng with her elbow and lowered her voice, "Do you think they will be together?"

Pei Junheng: "If Heaven has its way, it will not allow lovers to be separated."

Although Yu Huan didn't say anything, he felt that what he said was very true.

Xie Wenzhou and Pei Wanyue also stood at the door of the mansion.

The carriage parked in the first place made a movement.

Xiao Chenyuan walked out holding Shen Pianzhi.

Shen Pianzhi revealed a pair of tender, white, and slender hands and held the umbrella above her head.

But when Shen Pianzhi's eyes met theirs, they all looked at her, and her cheeks flushed uncontrollably.

She originally wanted to go down by herself.

But Xiao Chenyuan insisted on holding her.

Ever since they broke the window paper, Xiao Chenyuan has been showing his love in various ways.

Whether outsiders were around or not, he rarely let her feet touch the ground.

At this time, Xiao Chenyuan said slowly: "Madam, please hold on tight and don't get yourself wet."

"Okay." Shen Pianzhi nodded in agreement.

Xiao Chenyuan walked lightly into the mansion with Shen Pianzhi in his arms, and walked along the corridor.

Several of them followed closely behind.

Yu Huan hadn't seen Shen Pianzhi for a long time and wanted to share a bed with her.

But when he saw how much Xiao Chenyuan loved Zhizhi, he gave up the idea.

The next moment, Xiao Chenyuan carried Shen Pianzhi into a room and closed the door.

Yu Huan could only turn his attention to Pei Wanyue, "Ah Wan, let me sleep with you."

She couldn't let Awan and Xie Wenzhou stay in the same room.

After all, Awan is an unmarried woman, so it is really not in accordance with etiquette.

Pei Wanyue nodded obediently, "Okay, sister-in-law."

Pei Junheng said in a gentle tone, "Huanhuan wants me to share a room with Master Xie?"

"You and Master Xie haven't seen each other for many years. It's time to catch up." Yu Huan said, "It's getting late. Ah Wan and I will go back to bed."

After saying that, Yu Huan pulled Pei Wanyue into another room regardless of Pei Junheng's reaction.

In a short moment, only Pei Junheng and Xie Wenzhou were left standing under the eaves.

The sky was dark, and the wind and snow were still blowing outside the corridor, stirring up the chill that seeped into the bones.

Xie Wenzhou gathered his dark fur cloak closer, his voice lighter than the night, "If Master Pei is truly in a difficult position, I won't force you."

"Since Madam asked me to reminisce with you, I will of course listen to you." Pei Junheng said softly.

Hearing this, Xie Wenzhou's expression did not change, and he walked slowly into another room.

Pei Junheng stood there and waited for a moment. Seeing that Yu Huan's door showed no sign of opening, he followed.

...

Xiao Chenyuan carried Shen Pianzhi into the house, lowered his eyes and looked at her, his expression slightly gloomy, "I wasn't paying attention for a moment, and Madam let herself get wet?"

Shen Pianzhi caught a glimpse of his tense jawline tinged with anger, and said in a soft tone: "My hands were shaking just now, it wasn't intentional..."

"In that case, I, your husband, will have no choice but to help you bathe."

Shen Pinzhi: "???"

It turns out that this guy was waiting here just now.

Before Shen Pianzhi could speak, he glanced over and said, "The protest is invalid."

Shen Pianzhi let him do whatever he wanted in the bathtub and was too lazy to struggle.

It was already late at night when Xiao Chenyuan pulled her out of the water.

Shen Pianzhi was so sleepy that she couldn't open her eyes and fell into a deep sleep with her head touching the pillow.

But while she was half asleep, every inch of her skin felt warm and numb.
