After rebirth, I remarried the domineering 9000-year-old

After the housekeeper and Leng Ye left, Fu Jiuli sat behind the desk, tapping it lightly with his fingers, frowning in deep thought.

The reason why he used the Phoenix Guards this time was not only because of their power and the desire to buy the betrothal gifts on the gift list as quickly as possible, but he also had another purpose.

Since ancient times, serving the emperor is like serving a tiger. Most powerful officials like him who hold great power do not end up well.

He didn't care about being alone before. How long he could live and what the ending would be were never among his concerns.

But now it's different, he is going to marry her.

If he wants to protect her lifelong safety, he must stand at the pinnacle of power, otherwise he will always be hindered by others...

The sun has set and the night is dark and windy.

The door of the study was pushed open with a bang, and a woman in red with a bright smile rushed in with the wind.

Fu Jiuli suddenly looked up and just saw the woman's burning smile, and the next moment she had bumped into his arms.

He quickly caught her with one hand and protected her waist with the other, standing between her and the desk to prevent her from getting hurt.

A faint smile appeared in his black eyes: "Why are you always so reckless?"

Shen Nanxing looked up at him, her beautiful eyes shining like stars in the candlelight. She called him, "Fu Jiuli."

Fu Jiuli's eyes deepened. Few people had actually called his name in recent years, but every time he heard it, it sounded especially beautiful, easily stirring his heart.

He held her hand tightly and asked, "Why are you here at this time?"

"I miss you!" Shen Nanxing smiled playfully, holding his face and kissed him on the lips.

"You..." Fu Jiuli pursed her lips, feeling her cheeks and ears getting hot.

"Did you miss me?" Shen Nanxing hugged his neck and shook it, looking at him expectantly.

Fu Jiuli turned away slightly: "Stop making trouble..."

"Your grandfather and brother will be worried if you come out so late. I'll let Leng Yue take you back. Okay?"

Shen Nanxing pouted her red lips: "Do you miss me? If you say you miss me, I will go back, how about that?" She looked at him with bright eyes.

Fu Jiuli: ...

After a long while, a soft "hmm" came out of his throat.

The corners of Shen Nanxing's lips suddenly rose, almost reaching the back of her ears. She curved her eyebrows, hugged Fu Jiuli's neck, and quickly kissed him on the lips a few more times.

"I knew you missed me. I missed you too!"

"So, to understand your pain of missing me, I came to you myself!"

Fu Jiuli felt like her cheeks were about to burn.

There are still quite a few people outside! She marched straight in, and the secret guards didn't stop her. They must have seen her come in, alone with him and a woman...

He didn't dare to look at her: "It's getting late, you should go back."

"Okay!" Shen Nanxing got off him: "I came to see you today not only because I missed you, but also because I have something to tell you. I'll leave after I finish speaking."

"Tomorrow I'm going to Hanshan Temple with my brother to ask my grandmother about my father and the man with the ghost face. It will take half a month, so we have to postpone our horseback riding appointment tomorrow..."

Fu Jiuli: "Okay, I'll send some people to go with you and protect you."

He naturally wanted to go, but he was busy preparing the betrothal gifts and, uh... trying to please his grandfather...

I really can't get away.

Shen Nanxing looked at him eagerly: "This time we've been apart for half a month. You won't be able to see me for half a month. You must miss me very much."

"So, do you want to kiss me?" Shen Nanxing held her face with both hands, moved closer to Fu Jiuli, and closed her eyes considerately.

Fu Jiuli: ...

After a slight inner struggle, he kissed her.

I wanted to just touch her briefly, but as soon as I touched her, I was entangled by her.

This kiss lasted for a long time, so long that Shen Nanxing was almost suffocating, but the man seemed to have no intention of stopping.

Shen Nanxing had no choice but to push the person away, her cheeks red.

"I, I'm leaving."

But as he turned around, he dropped an inkstone from the corner of the table.

The inkstone fell to the ground and broke into pieces, and along with it fell a note that was originally pressed under the inkstone.

Shen Nanxing subconsciously squatted down and wanted to pick up the memorial.

Unexpectedly, the letter unfolded on its own after it fell to the ground.

There is actually...
