The beautiful woman in the quick transmigration novel has been targeted by the male lead again.

Chang Ning, along with Tong Chun and Tong Xia, arrived at the Second Master's residence with trepidation.

Lan Xin stood at the door. When she saw her coming, her expression changed for a moment, but she greeted her respectfully, "Second Madam, please come in."

His attitude had clearly changed. Although he still looked down on him, he no longer dared to express it so openly.

This was all because Wu, the old lady's maid, had specifically instructed her to treat her as a proper lady in the future, saying that she had specifically consulted the abbot of Huguo Temple.

The abbot said that one's destiny is determined by heaven. If one wants to borrow the fortune of others, one needs three things: the right time, the right place, and the right people. If any one of these is not in accordance with the other's wishes, one will naturally not be able to achieve one's goals.

The old lady's face turned pale instantly. So all of this was their own fault?

Although it was called a marriage ceremony, it was just a symbolic process. There were no formal betrothal rites, no official registration, and even the wedding ceremony was hasty. Could it be that this is why her son suffered a backlash?

She quickly asked, "Is there any way to remedy this?"

The abbot said that there is always a way out, and sincerity will bring results.

The old lady hurriedly returned home and instructed Wu Mama to give instructions that no one should be disrespectful to the second madam in the future.

She went to visit her son again. Shen Yanping was now unable to move, needed to be taken care of in all aspects of life, and could not speak. He could only communicate with his eyes.

He didn't react to anything we said, except when his new wife was mentioned. The old lady asked, "Should we have her come and keep my son company?"

Shen Yanping's eyes widened.

The old lady immediately ordered Changning to be brought over, which proved that what the abbot said was true.

This time, she instructed the Second Master to always keep people around him, and to make sure that what happened last time did not happen again, otherwise she would sell them all!

So when Chang Ning went in, she saw two maids standing by the bed. Upon seeing her, they immediately called out, "Second Madam!"

Upon seeing her, Shen Yanping immediately let out an "ah ah" sound, his eyes almost popping out of their sockets. At this moment, his face was no longer associated with charm; it could be described as ferocious.

Chang Ning instinctively tried to step back, but Lan Xin stopped her with her words: "Second Madam, Second Master gets excited as soon as he sees you, which shows that he wants to see you. Please stay here and talk to Second Master!"

After saying that, he moved an embroidered stool to her bedside. Changning felt like she was sitting on pins and needles under the gazes of the maids. "Second...Second Master, please rest and recuperate..."

She didn't dare look him in the eye. He wasn't just excited; he probably wanted to kill her!

Only because she can't speak right now can I let her sit here peacefully.

If he ever gets better, Chang Ning shuddered and knew he'd make her the first person he'd target!

Thinking of this, Chang Ning suddenly felt that it was best for him to remain paralyzed; she didn't want to die yet.

Shen Yanping exhaled heavily, and soon his face turned red and his neck became thick. Chang Ning was afraid that he would not be able to catch his breath, so she quickly advised, "Second Master, take a deep breath. You must take care of your health!"

Whatever you do, don't let anything happen in front of her!

Shen Yanping looked at her with resentment, which made Chang Ning feel uneasy, but then she saw him suddenly close his eyes.

Chang Ning breathed a sigh of relief, then sat there stiffly for a while. Seeing that the person on the bed seemed to be asleep, he cautiously called out, "Second Master?"

no response.

Chang Ning glanced at the maid beside her, carefully got up, and went to the outer room, feeling that such a life of constant anxiety was truly unbearable.

Tongzhi Tongxia was in the outer room. When she came out, he asked, "Madam, would you like to rest?"

Chang Ning felt much more at ease seeing them; they were her lifeline!

She nodded and was led to lie down on the soft couch. A cup of tea was served to her, and then it was asked, "Would you like some snacks, Madam?"

Changning said she would eat as much as she could, because she didn't know when she might not be able to eat anymore.

Soon, Tongxia returned with six plates of pastries. The names of the pastries were so fancy that Changning couldn't understand them. She only knew that the Hou family's chefs were quite skilled and the pastries were delicious.

After eating her fill, Chang Ning felt warm inside and quickly fell asleep.

When she woke up, it was already afternoon. She went to check on the Second Master again, under the watchful eyes of the maid, but seeing that he was still asleep, she quickly retreated.

With nothing to do here, she looked at the flowers and grass, and then sat by the window in a daze. Xia asked, "Should we find some books for Madam to read?"

Chang Ning said, "...I can't read."

Tong Xia, seemingly oblivious to her embarrassment, suggested, "How about we do some needlework?"

Chang Ning: "...Okay."

Actually, she wasn't very good at these things. Although she was a country girl, she had three older sisters. In addition, she was beautiful and lovely from a young age, so her parents didn't make her do much housework. At most, she would sew a patch on her own clothes.

But it's always good to have something to do now, since no one cares anyway.

Tong Xia took out a sewing basket filled with threads of various colors. Chang Ning looked through the threads and sighed inwardly that the lives of the noble families and the common people in the village were like heaven and earth.

She didn't know any fancy tricks, so she just took a piece of cloth and poked it over and over, but in the end, no one knew what she had poked out.

The maidservant who was guarding inside suddenly ran out: "Second Madam, Second Master has woken up!"

Chang Ning stopped what she was doing, sighed, put down her needle and thread, and went inside.

Shen Yanping had just finished drinking his medicine when he saw her come in and snorted.

Chang Ning ignored him and sat down like a puppet.

Whether Shen Yanping had figured things out or not, he no longer had the same murderous intent he had shown that morning.

Chang Ning sat there for a while, then asked Tong Xia to bring her needlework again, as she loved needlework.

The maids remained silent. The nominal couple, one lying on the bed looking at the canopy ceiling, and the other dedicated to trying out every color, made the room unusually quiet.

Shen Yanping turned his head at some point and stared quietly at Chang Ning. The woman sometimes frowned and sometimes smiled slightly, like a perfectly natural painting of a beautiful lady.

His gaze gradually became lost in thought.

The next day, Doctor Lin came to take the pulse and said that the second master's pulse had improved a lot, and if he kept it up, he would definitely get better.

The old lady was overjoyed and personally saw him off at the door.

Chang Ning stayed there for a few days, and Shen Yanping got better day by day. Although she was still unable to move, her spirits were much better, and the old lady gradually began to treat her more kindly.

One day, someone unexpectedly sent her a pair of bracelets, made of the finest mutton fat jade. Chang Ning was flattered and accepted them, and spent her days playing with them with great affection.

If there's anything wrong with it, it's that the old lady, for her son's sake, insisted that the couple share a room.

But since they can't share a bed now, Changning can only sleep on the small couch outside at night.

Chang Ning could tolerate this, as conditions were much better than in the village before.

That night, before going to sleep, Chang Ning lay on the couch and habitually touched the bracelet when suddenly a voice boomed in her ear: "You like it that much?"

Chang Ning screamed in fright, but was immediately covered up: "Keep your voice down, do you want to be discovered?"

It's Shen Yanzheng again!

Chang Ning glared at him angrily, "Don't you know that people can be terrifying?"

Moreover, Shen Yanping is lying inside. What if he hears something or someone suddenly comes in?

As if sensing her thoughts, Shen Yanzheng said, "We can't hear anything inside."

Naturally, people were also arranged outside.

She told him to speak softly, but he acted as if he were in his own bedroom, squeezing her wrist and asking again, "Do you like it?"

Chang Ning's heart skipped a beat, and she rolled her eyes in annoyance: "Who doesn't like it?"

She wasn't born into wealth; she's never seen anything like this in her life!

Chang Ning ignored him and didn't dare to speak loudly; this person was far too unscrupulous!

Shen Yanzheng didn't mind; after all, he wasn't there to chat.

He leaned over onto the bed, casually tossed the jade bracelet aside, turned the delicate woman over, placed his hands on her head, and covered her with his entire body, kissing her lips as he asked, "Have you missed me these past few days, hmm?"
