The gambling god's wife in the Duke's Mansion is getting divorced again

"I, I, I...can't sleep, go out and get some fresh air."

Seeing that it was Pei Jinzhi, Sang Wan's heart became even more anxious.

Damn, won’t they notice that she ran away?

Pei Jinzhi remained silent, his eyes scanning her body.

Against the backdrop of his snow-white skin, the scars on his neck and face looked like pale pink earthworms; his white sleeves were torn and his knees were bruised, covered in mud and blood.

His brows furrowed slightly.

There were noisy footsteps outside the door.

Flames shot up into the sky, and someone broke into Zhaoyun Courtyard.

Pei Yanting yelled loudly, vowing not to give up until he found the person:

"That's it! I saw her running here with my own eyes!"

Qiuyue stopped him: "The prince has gone to bed, Second Young Master, you can't barge in like this!"

"Get out of here!" Pei Yanting pushed Qiuyue down, covering his bloody head with his hands, his eyes sinister: "Search me!"

Li Jiu jumped down from the roof, drew his sword and shouted:

"Who dares?! Can you just search Zhaoyun Courtyard at will? Since when did the Second Young Master have the final say in this mansion?"

Pei Yanting blew his nose in annoyance:

"Li Jiu, you're a guard, but a thief broke into the mansion. This is a serious matter. That thief smashed my head, how cruel! I did this for my brother's good. What if she broke into Zhaoyun Courtyard and hurt my fragile brother, the Crown Prince?"

How frail he is! The servants laughed secretly.

Sang Wan leaned over the door crack and looked out, unable to help muttering:

"Your second brother doesn't take you seriously at all."

Pei Jinzhi was very close to her, and the hot breath from his nose went straight into her ears, making her feel itchy. The deep voice made the atmosphere look ambiguous and inexplicable.

"It sounds like you're trying to sow discord."

"I wouldn't dare. I don't know him."

Sang Wan felt uneasy and couldn't help but move away.

Pei Jinzhi's big hand pressed against the door, trapping Sang Wan under him, a dangerous look in his deep eyes:

"Oh? Then why not let him recognize it?"

Sang Wan's heartbeat quickened: "What do you want to do?!"

Pei Jinzhi curled his thin lips.

With a creak, the carved wooden door opened wide.

Sang Wan screamed and buried her head in his chest.

Pei Jinzhi held his breath and suddenly smiled.

His big hand went on to put on Sang Wan's shoulder, his expression lazy:

"Why is my second brother here instead of kneeling in the ancestral hall?"

Qiuyue was so frightened when she heard the voice that she stammered:

"My Lord, you, you, you..."

Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, Sang Wan and Pei Jinzhi were hugging each other, inseparable.

Li Jiu was also stunned, but didn't say anything.

Pei Yanting looked as if he had discovered a new world, his face full of surprise. He grabbed the torch from the servant and moved a little closer.

"Hey, big brother, you're used to eating vegetarian food, but you're eating meat today?"

He felt it was not bright enough, so he raised his hand and asked the servant to hold up the lantern so that he could see the woman's face clearly.

Pei Jinzhi casually raised his cloak and covered Sang Wan, leaving only a pair of eyes exposed.

Sang Wan's anxious heart suddenly relaxed.

"It seems that my second brother hasn't knelt enough in the ancestral hall and is still thinking about my Zhaoyun Courtyard." Pei Jinzhi said indifferently.

Those eyes were as cold as polar ice, as if they were poisoned.

Pei Yanting shuddered for no reason and avoided his eyes.

Thinking of Lan Lu, he couldn't help but shiver again.

This sick guy is so fucking vicious and perverted.

"Brother, there's a thief in the house. I'm here because I'm concerned about you. Searching is for everyone's benefit."

He peeked in, curious about what kind of woman it was that could arouse Pei Jinzhi, a man who never cared about women.

Pei Jinzhi's eyebrows were as light as the moon. "Okay, pass the order down, light up the whole house, and let the Second Young Master search it thoroughly."

Li Jiu bowed: "Yes."

Pei Yanting was anxious: "Hey, brother, that's not what I meant. Why make such a big noise in the middle of the night?"

"Why, are you only searching my Zhaoyun Courtyard?" Li Jiuziya asked.

"If there are thieves, they might go into all the courtyards. I think we should search the mistress's courtyard and the young lady's courtyard carefully."

"Oh yes, don't miss Chunhui Hall either." Pei Jinzhi smiled, "It would be unacceptable if that thief hurt our ancestor."

Li Jiuyi bowed and said, "Yes! Everyone has it!"

The guards stood in several rows, making a huge noise.

Pei Yanting held Li Jiu in one hand and smiled awkwardly:

"Li Jiu, don't, don't alarm the ancestor."

"Brother, you see, my head can't be beaten in vain, and this matter can't be let go like this!" Pei Yanting was very unwilling.

He clearly saw that the figure was heading towards Zhaoyun Courtyard, but he couldn't take a single step forward.

"With Li Jiu here to protect us, how could the thieves escape? Will you return to the ancestral hall and continue kneeling, or will you search the mansion?"

Pei Yanting frowned:

"Big brother is right. I will go back to the ancestral hall and kneel down."

After taking a few steps, he turned back and smiled wickedly:

"Brother, it's getting late and the dew is heavy, please take care of yourself. We finally had some meat, don't surrender in just a few strokes, or you'll waste this beautiful scenery!"

The servants were all Pei Yanting's men. They didn't care about decency at all and burst into laughter.

Too embarrassing!

Sang Wan couldn't help but sulk.

She pinched her throat and acted coquettishly, her voice just loud enough for Pei Yanting and others to hear.

"Master, these people are so noisy, are we still coming? You've been making such a fuss three or four times tonight that my legs are weak and I can't stand any longer."

Pei Yanting stood there in a daze, jealousy surging in his stomach.

The woman's voice was as soft as water. Just these delicate words were like countless hands teasing his heart, making him feel itchy to the bone and his whole body numb.

Pfft, what a bargain for this sickly guy.

Pei Jinzhi's tongue pressed against his cheek, and his eyes dimmed.

He picked up Sang Wan and carried her horizontally, and his two snow-white arms hooked around her neck, shaking her so hard that she felt itchy.

With just a lift of his foot, the door slammed shut twice.

The candlelight shines, the shadows of people are intertwined in the room, the infinite and beautiful spring scenery is very inspiring.

Qiuyue was twisting her handkerchief in the corner, her eyes piercing with venom.

This little bitch!

She really climbed into the prince's bed!

Li Jiu laughed loudly, "Let's go, Second Young Master. I will escort you to the ancestral hall and kneel there, lest that thief come and hit you on the head again."

"You... don't need that! Humph!"

Pei Yanting was so angry that his head hurt even more.

*

The footsteps were hurried and disappeared in a flash.

Sang Wan was so busy listening to the noise outside that she completely forgot that she was still curled up in Pei Jinzhi's arms.

"How long do you want to hold me?" His voice was hoarse.

She slid down swiftly.

"Hey, I'm just trying to give you some face."

"Nonsense." Pei Jinzhi flicked his sleeves, turned and walked towards the armchair, lowering his eyelids and looking extremely serious, "You haven't said enough."

Sang Wan was stunned for a moment and then burst out laughing.

Ah, this damn desire to win.

"Okay, okay, next time I'll tell you, you had sex seven times in one night, are you satisfied?"

Pei Jinzhi twitched the corner of his lips, his eyes softened:

"Where did you learn all this?"

"A brothel." Sang Wan found a chair and sat down, pouring herself a cup of tea. She was so thirsty after running around tonight.

"Those men, don't they just like delicate young ladies like this?" She sneered.

Pei Jinzhi's face darkened and his voice lowered: "I don't like it. Why did you go to the brothel?"

Sang Wan felt that something was wrong and slapped his lips:

"I often deliver medicine, nothing else."

"Don't go to a place where dragons and snakes mingle."

"Yes." Sang Wan responded obediently.

Isn’t the Pei Mansion also a den of tigers and wolves?

"Also, don't run around. There are wolves in the mansion."

Sang Wan groaned, "Yes, there are wolves."

Nothing but a pervert. A den of perverts.

He looked as if he had never seen a woman before.

"What are you humming?"

"I didn't."

Pei Jinzhi sighed:

"You are a beautiful woman, but you are a thief."

Sang Wan looked bewildered: "Are you scolding me?"

Did he know that she was the thief?

Pei Jinzhi didn't look at her again. He said something, stood up and walked out: "Remember, I want to see the antidote tomorrow."

"Hey, Pei Jin... Prince..."

As soon as I looked up, the figures disappeared.

Tsk, she helped a lot today.

You can't just kill people.

**

The main courtyard of Zhaoyun Courtyard, Pei Jinzhi's bedroom.

"Master, I was about to shoot her, but then I saw she actually hit the Second Young Master, and she hit him so hard! Tsk tsk!"

He even cried out in pain for Pei Yanting.

Sang Wan was lucky. We thought she was running away to seek help from Pei Yanting, but it turned out to be a misunderstanding.

If Pei Yanting was beaten any later, she might have gone to hell first.

Pei Jinzhi thought of Sang Wan's miserable appearance covered in mud, and couldn't help but raise the corners of his lips.

Suddenly, he paused and frowned:

"When did I tell you to shoot her?"

"Didn't you say that if we find her having an affair with Pei Yanting, she should be killed without mercy?!" Li Jiu was stunned.

"When did I say that?" Pei Jinzhi lowered his eyes.

Li Jiu was speechless. Well, he had to take the blame again.

The master and servant exchanged glances instantly.

If he is not Pei Yanting's spy, could he also be here for the imperial edict of succession?

Li Jiuyi gritted his teeth and said, "I'm going to kill her now."

"Come back. This is just a guess." Pei Jinzhi raised his eyes.

"Then I'll tie her up and torture her severely. I'm not afraid she won't confess!"

Pei Jinzhi tapped the table, signaling him to be patient: "Don't worry, keep staring at her."

"Yes." Li Jiu was a little worried.

I have always been decisive, so why am I always hesitant when it comes to Sang Wan?

"Can you see the pair of wild mandarin ducks in the garden?"

"The man was in charge of the money in the outer treasury, and the woman slipped away so quickly that I couldn't see clearly. But I saw her heading towards the Chuihua Pavilion."

I was a little hesitant when I left Jiuyi.

Pei Jinzhi understood his temperament: "Speak."

"From the back, she looks like... Aunt Zhao..."

Pei Jinzhi's face turned pale.

With a squeeze of his big hand, the teacup shattered.
