"Then please ask the Regent to leave first."

Wen Qingzhi broke free from his embrace like a fish, lowered her eyes to look at his scattered clothes, thought for a while, took out one of her waist belts and handed it to him, "Make do with it."

Feng Yunxiao was a typical man with broad shoulders and a narrow waist, but he couldn't use Wen Qingzhi's waist belt. Wen Qingzhi's waist was thinner and softer.

Feng Junxiao also gave face and symbolically gestured at his waist, "Short."

Wen Qingzhi looked at the waist belt that was missing a section and fell into deep thought.

She looked at Feng Junxiao back and forth.

Then he went to the dressing table, pulled out one of his own light green hairbands and handed it to him, "Then you'll have to use this. It's better than you going out like this."

When she said this, she glanced at Feng Yunxiao and thought: He doesn't look fat, but his waist is so thick.

"What's that look in your eyes..."

Feng Junxiao pulled her over, raised his hand and pinched her thin chin, forcing her to look at him, "Wen Qingzhi, who gave you the courage to treat me like this?"

Feng Junxiao's warm breath was like soft feathers brushing against Wen Qingzhi's face, making her cheeks itchy. He lowered his voice, and it was a little hoarse.

Faced with his sudden action, Wen Qingzhi reacted instantly and instinctively wanted to push the man out, but she failed.

"What are you doing?"

Wen Qingzhi was puzzled. She placed her hands on his strong chest. Even through the fabric, she could feel the warmth coming from Feng Junxiao's body.

The firm touch of her hand reminded her of the almost perfect body she saw when she was treating Feng Yunxiao's wound that day.

She had had men before, but she never had sex with them.

But she knew what kind of man he was.

In Feng Junxiao's eyes, she caught a glimpse of that pitifully small desire.

"Prince Regent, there are people waiting outside. If you stay in my room for too long, I'm afraid it will affect your reputation."

She pushed away Feng Yunxiao's embrace, stepped back, and raised her eyebrows. "The hairband... isn't too short, is it?"

Feng Yunxiao looked down at the hairband in his hand and said, "It's not short."

He didn't move, just looked at Wen Qingzhi quietly, as if waiting for something.

Wen Qingzhi smiled at him, turned around, pushed the door open and left, leaving him alone in the room.

Still want me to serve you?

As soon as he came out, he saw the messy scene outside. Some people were injured. Zheng Yue's old nanny was lying on the ground holding the child tightly in her arms. In the other room, Zheng Yue's heart-wrenching cries could be heard.

"Child, child—"

"Miss Wen!"

When the old maid saw her coming out, she crawled over with the child in her arms and kowtowed repeatedly, "Please save my lady, please save my lady!"

"Haruyu, help her up."

"Yes."

Chunyu stepped forward to help her up. The old nanny hid behind Wen Qingzhi. The child in her arms cried so hard that anyone who heard it would feel distressed.

"Take the child inside. He's so young, what are you doing outside?"

Wen Qingzhi frowned. On the surface, it sounded like he was scolding the nanny, but in fact, he was scolding someone else.

"Yes Yes!"

The nanny nodded vigorously and tried to run into the room with the child in her arms, but was stopped.

"Miss Wen, this is a family matter within the Baili Mansion. Please don't interfere too much."

A woman in pink came up to her with a faint smile on her face, standing with the man in the crescent-shaped white robe.

She said, "You saved Sister Zheng, and we are grateful. The child is my husband's, so please don't interfere in this matter. Otherwise..."

'Snapped! '

Wen Qingzhi didn't want to hear the rest of the words, so she raised her hand and fanned them back into the woman's throat.

The woman staggered after being hit, threw herself into the man's arms, and sobbed softly.

It seems that this should be Baili Xuance and the superior woman.

"How dare you! Wen Qingzhi, how dare you do that?"

Baili Xuance glared, holding the man in his arms, and said in a gentle voice, "It's okay, don't be afraid."

"You are such a...beast."

Wen Qingzhi sneered, "The woman in this house has lost half her life in order to give birth to your child. You've been here for so long, have you ever visited her? You haven't even thought about taking her home, but you want to take the child away."

The quarrel outside was very loud and she could hear it clearly. She just felt sorry for Zheng Yue as it was not worth it for her to have a child for such a person.

"What does my family affairs have to do with you?"

Baili Xuance took a step forward, his eyebrows sharp and his eyes gaunt, his cheeks thin, his eyes burning with anger, "The child is mine. I can take him away if I want to. If I don't want to take anyone with me, I won't take them with me."

As he spoke, he looked towards the room where Zheng Yue was, his eyes filled with unclear emotions. "If she hadn't been jealous, the two of us wouldn't have ended up like this."

"She died walking on her own, who can she blame?"

Baili Xuance suppressed his anger in his heart. He didn't understand why Zheng Yue couldn't tolerate him taking a concubine?

Even if a concubine enters the mansion, she will have to call him mistress, and it will not threaten her position. Why should she make a fuss?

Humph, isn’t she a troublemaker?

I'll teach her a lesson this time and not bring her back home. Let's see what she can do.

Won’t you still come back in disgrace in the end?

He just wanted to curb Zheng Yue's inherent arrogance, since she was just a merchant's daughter.

"road?"

Wen Qingzhi looked at this hopeless man and said, "She really took the wrong path."

Hearing Wen Qingzhi's 'agreement' with him, Baili Xuance felt relieved and smiled smugly, "It's common for men to take concubines. Which man doesn't have three or four wives? But she's acting like a jealous woman, making a fuss."

His words actually made Wen Qingzhi laugh.

"Baili Xuance, the only way for Zheng Yue to go wrong is to marry you."

"what?!"

Baili Xuance's expression changed, and his eyes darkened. "What nonsense are you talking about?"

"Have you also promised her that you will be together forever?"

Wen Qingzhi asked, slowly approaching Baili Xuance and circling him. After examining him, she walked towards Zheng Yue's room. "You couldn't keep your promise, so why do you blame her for going crazy?"

"Besides, Zheng Yue is my adopted sister. If you touch her, it's like touching me."

When she reached the door, she turned back and stared at the two of them coldly.

"You guys are so brave to come to my house and bully me!"

She snorted coldly and went in, leaving the two people outside dumbfounded.

Inside the house, Zheng Yue was holding the child and crying. When she saw Wen Qingzhi, she looked at her with red eyes, "Thank you, thank you..."

She never expected that Baili Xuance really didn't give her any face at all and actually humiliated her in someone else's house.

"You are welcome."

Wen Qingzhi came over and said, "You should take a good rest. I will take care of the rest. Aren't you going to tell your parents about this?"

Zheng Yue's eyes dimmed instantly, "I won't cause them any more trouble..."

"How can it be a nuisance?"

Wen Qingzhi ignored the quarrel outside and said to her, "Xiao Chang said that your parents love you very much. If they knew about your current life, they would definitely stand up for you, wouldn't they?"

"You have people you can rely on, and when the time is right, you should rely on them."

"Why would Baili Xuance dare to bully you? Isn't it because you married far away and don't usually visit your family that he thinks no one will take care of you?"

Wen Qingzhi had heard of this kind of thing before, where a girl from a distant family was treated harshly by her husband's family. This was because her husband's family knew that she didn't know anyone and had no relatives in a strange place thousands of miles away.

Even if she was wronged, she had nowhere to go and could only endure it obediently.

If she had a child, she would have one more reason to feel wronged.

...

Wen Qingzhi's words aroused past memories. She thought of the scene of her wedding with a ten-mile red wedding dress. In order to prevent her from suffering in her husband's family, her parents moved almost half of the Zheng family there.

Being unfamiliar with the place, and fearing that his daughter would suffer any injustice, he specially went to the capital and bought a few shops for her.

After getting married, she was completely devoted to Baili Xuance, and naturally the shops were managed by the Baili family's housekeeper. Now, I'm afraid they are in the hands of that bitch An Susu!

Most of the silver from the dowry was used to support the Baili family...

She contributed money and effort, but in the end she was only given a reputation as jealous.

Even the servants in the mansion gave her a hard time. No one looked after her during childbirth, and after she gave birth, they just tried to snatch the child away from her.

He knew that he didn't want to see An Susu, but he still brought her here to make things difficult for him, and even wanted her to keep his child...

The love in her heart had long been worn away to nothing, and now she had completely given up on Baili Xuance.

"Azhi, can I call you that?"

Zheng Yue asked.

"can."

"I want to send a letter home. Can you send someone to arrange it for me?"
