Reborn as the spoiled male wife of the mortal enemy

It was already late, and Bai Xun had not returned yet from the old lady's hospital where she was taking care of her.

"Second Young Madam, please eat something first." Lingyun said worriedly when she saw Nanchun sitting motionless in front of the window for a long time.

"Tell me, am I going a little too far?"

Lingyun paused slightly and said, "How could that be? From what I've seen... the Second Young Master is on your side."

Nan Chun smiled bitterly and said, "Because of this, isn't it even more excessive?"

Lingyun was silent for a moment, then said, "I used to serve in the Li family. Before the young lady of the Li family got married, she helped the wealthy master Li manage his business. She was in charge of the shop and the household accounts. The young lady was very talented and kind. In those years, she helped the Li family make a lot of money.

But with more money, people's hearts became more active. The concubine and her children were dissatisfied and started to find all kinds of trouble. Gradually, the young lady's brother and sister-in-law also wanted to seize power. The family was in turmoil, so the rich man Li took the initiative to find a family to marry the young lady off. In just two years, the Li family fell into decline. He sold the house and servants and returned to his hometown in Wencheng.

Nanchun looked at her silently.

Lingyun continued, "Sometimes, even if you're capable and dedicated to your family, no one will remember your kindness. They'll just be jealous of your talent and suspect you're greedy for power and trying to steal your wealth.

"I know that the Second Young Madam feels uncomfortable with being idle like this. But if you want to survive well in a wealthy family, doing less, or even nothing, is the best option."

He really felt that he was just living a life of idleness and waiting to die, so he wanted to find something to do.

The most important thing is... he has his own selfish motives.

I want to use business matters to see if there is a chance to meet the Fourth Master of the Sheng family as soon as possible.

If I want to find my grandfather as soon as possible, I want to find out the cause of the strange disease in my previous life.

She couldn't just stay in the backyard of the Bai family's old house and be the second young lady.

He needed a reasonable and unsuspecting reason to go out.

But now this selfish desire has put Bai Xun in a dilemma.

This is not what he wants to see.

Bai Xun didn't come back until dawn.

A gentle kiss fell on Nanchun's forehead, and soon the sound of steady breathing could be heard beside him.

Nanchun looked at Bai Xun's sleeping face in the faint light coming through the window.

He couldn't help but think of Lu He's words again.

My existence did disrupt Bai Xun's peaceful and smooth life.

For several days in a row, Bai Xun stayed in the old lady's courtyard to take care of her. The head of the family came back from the county town, bringing with him a doctor invited from the county town.

Young Master Bai also rushed back from Yangcheng.

The rumor in the village was that the male wife of the Bai family had made the old lady sick and she had been unable to get out of bed for several days.

"Grandma." Bo Song walked to the bed, his eyes full of concern and worry.

Mrs. Bai's face was pale and she slowly opened her eyes. Her gaze fell on Bai Song: "Song'er, you're here."

Her voice was weak and hoarse, and she looked very frail.

Bo Song quickly stepped forward and held her hand: "Grandma, how are you feeling? Are you feeling better?"

Mrs. Bai shook her head slightly and said weakly, "I'm afraid my old bones will die here."

Bai Song also knew the reason why Mrs. Bai fell ill. He glanced at Bai Xun, who looked haggard and tired.

"Grandma, don't think too much. Your health is the most important thing. Those things...grandfather and grandson will take care of them." He comforted her.

Old Madam Bai forced a smile, her eyes flickering with complex emotions. She sighed and said, "Song'er and Xun'er, you've grown up now. You both have your own ideas and can stand on your own. I, an old woman who is about to die, can't care about so many things anymore."

"Okay, take the medicine and have a good rest! Song'er and Xun'er, come with me to the study." Bai Yishui said.

The two followed their grandfather to the study.

"Things...you know about it too, right?" Bai Yishui asked.

Bo Song nodded and said, "Uncle Shan told me."

"What do you think?"

Bai Song said, "I think there's nothing wrong with Xundi's idea. Nanchun is now a member of the Bai family. He's willing to help Xundi run the business. Isn't that great?"

After hearing this, Bai Yishui breathed a sigh of relief.

What he feared most was that Bo Song would have a grudge against him because of this matter.

After all, the family had not yet split up, and he had decided to hand over the county business to Bai Xun without telling Bai Song in detail.

"Grandfather, I'm already busy enough with all the stuff going on in Yangcheng. I was thinking of asking Xundi to go to Yangcheng to help me! If possible, I really hope to have two Xundi, one to take care of the affairs of He'an County and the other to take care of the affairs of Yangcheng, and I can just be an idle person!" Bai Song said with a smile.

Bai Yishui sighed and said, "Xun'er, your grandmother keeps bringing up Nanchun's matter, but she has other intentions. Do you understand?"

Bai Xun clenched the hands hanging at his sides.

"If you can take a concubine and have a few children soon, why would she have the time to bother Nanchun?" Seeing that Bai Xun said nothing, Bai Yishui continued.

Bai Song patted Bai Xun's shoulder and said with a smile, "Grandfather, let me talk to Brother Xun!"

There was a table full of delicious food, but Bai Xun just drank in silence.

Bo Song picked up a piece of fish and put it in his bowl: "Don't just drink."

Bai Xun looked at him and asked, "You said you wanted me to go to Yangcheng to help, but what happened there?"

Bo Song was slightly startled, and said unnaturally: "I can't hide anything from you. Indeed...something happened."

Seeing Bai Song's eyes avoiding him, Bai Xun's heart skipped a beat.

"Is it related to Nanchun's grandfather?"

"how do you know?"

Bai Xun frowned slightly. "I asked someone to bring you a message the other day, asking about Grandpa Nan, but you haven't replied. A few days ago, Grandfather sent several elderly people who used to follow Grandpa Nan to search for graves out of the village. Although he said he was sending them somewhere else, I still feel like something's amiss."

Bai Song pursed his lips and said, "Grandpa Nan is missing. The tomb is extremely dangerous, with many traps, and half of the people sent to find it were killed. According to the survivors, they finally entered the main tomb chamber, but as soon as they opened the coffin, the tomb began to shake violently.

"Old Man Nan ordered them to evacuate, but when he was about to leave, the bridge broke and he fell. They searched the tomb for two days and then stood guard outside for several more, but there was no sign of him."

The wine glass in Bai Xun's hand broke with a "snap", and the fragments pierced into his palm, and blood flowed down.

"What are you doing?" Bo Song hurriedly pried his hands apart.

"Don't tell Nanchun." Bai Xun's face was pale.

"But..." Bai Song was a little embarrassed.

"He's just missing now. Grandpa Nan is very experienced. Didn't it happen before? He stayed in the tomb for half a month before coming out... I will go look for him myself... You must not tell Nanchun." Bai Xun grabbed his wrist and said anxiously, "I don't want him to worry. Besides... if he knew, he would definitely go look for him himself. I can't watch him die."

Bo Song sighed: "I understand. Xundi, are you... falling in love with him?"

Bai Xun's hands trembled slightly: "I have always loved him."
