After returning home from the palace, Guan Ning locked himself up at home for seven days. No one knew what he was doing, not even most people in the house.

However, from the basement in the backyard of Guan Mansion, there would occasionally be bursts of pungent smell coming out, like some kind of chemical.

It was not until noon on the eighth day that Guan Ning came out from the backyard. He was dirty and looked like a beggar. He stood in the corner and shouted a few times.

Lou Xinyue came over when she heard the sound, and almost didn't recognize him. She thought he was a beggar from somewhere.

"You, how did you become like this?" She couldn't help but burst out laughing on her icy face.

Guan Ning's face was black and gray, as if he had crawled out of a chimney, and his clothes were tattered.

"What else could it be? I was a little off-target with that thing and it got burned."

"Still laughing!"

"Hurry up and prepare some hot water for me, I need to take a good shower."

"Yes, yes, my good husband, hahaha." Lou Xinyue laughed out loud, like an iceberg melting, she really couldn't hold it back, it was too funny.

Guan Ning rolled his eyes.

After a while, heat rose in a room.

Lou Xinyue had her hair tied up, revealing her slender neck. She rolled up her sleeves and was rubbing Guan Ning's back with a handkerchief.

"You're so dirty! I've changed the water three times, and it's still so black."

"Why is it still burned?"

Guan Ning spit out water droplets and took a look: "It's okay, just a minor injury. This batch of black powder is ready."

Lou Xinyue felt distressed and brought medicine.

"Then you want to send it to Shu?"

Guan Ning shook his head: "No, let the people from Liusha take it. If anything happens, it might come in handy."

"Although black powder is easy to use, the materials and conditions are limited, and it is impossible to produce it on an assembly line. Dragon Riders are not qualified for this thing for the time being."

Lou Xinyue nodded: "Come sit over here, I'll wipe it off your face again."

Wow.

Guan Ning turned around and faced Lou Xinyue.

Lou Xinyue concentrated on wiping the black stains from the bottom of his nose bit by bit.

But Guan Ning couldn't help but look down at the faintly visible whiteness of her chest. Lou Xinyue knew what he was looking at and glared at him, "I told you to sit still and don't move your head!"

"Hehe, wife, you are so white." Guan Ning said slyly.

Lou Xinyue's eyebrows were like distant mountains, and her face was like a calm lake, without any fluctuation. In the past, she could have just slapped him, but now that they were an old couple, she was not ashamed of it anymore.

She concentrated on wiping her face and ignored Guan Ning.

Guan Ning curled his lips, feeling bored, and had no choice but to stop talking and wait quietly for the end.

After about a quarter of an hour, it was finally clean inside and out. Lou Xinyue even cut her nails, which was very considerate.

"Okay, put on your clothes." Lou Xinyue picked up the dirty clothes and planned to wash them.

At this time, Guan Ning suddenly hugged her from behind.

Lou Xinyue was startled, and rolled her eyes back with her cold and beautiful face: "Let go."

"Hey hey hey."

"Wife, I haven't touched you for a while." Guan Ning winked and hinted, his hands were not honest either.

Lou Xinyue was amused by him, but immediately forced herself to be serious: "I'm warning you, don't touch me, in broad daylight."

"Let go quickly, or don't blame me for being too harsh."

Guan Ning looked at her long legs and refused to give up, saying: "Go ahead and hit her hard!"

"what!"

"you!"

"Thief man, what are you doing?"

boom……

There were bursts of subtle noises coming from the room, as if two people were fighting.

Of course, it wasn't a real fight. Lou Xinyue struggled for a while and was then pushed down onto a bench.

"You want to die!" she cursed angrily, but her tone seemed to have tacitly acknowledged the matter.

Guan Ning grabbed the ankles of her long legs and was about to do something, but Lou Xinyue had already subconsciously knelt on the chair.

Sudden.

"Report!"

"Report!"

"Prince, Prince!" A loud and urgent shout came from outside.

Guan Ning was speechless. Why did it come at this time instead of earlier or later?

Lou Xinyue's cheeks turned slightly red. She glared, then immediately stood up and lowered the hem of her skirt.
