Quick transmigration to punish scumbags, have a child to inherit everything from them

This round face is a subtle yet powerful asset, so we won't dwell on it. However, those eyes could be a bit more expressive, especially when they cry, they should look pitiful to maximize a man's protective instincts.

As for her skin, it could be made more delicate, and her figure could be slightly adjusted to be more curvaceous without appearing too voluptuous.

She adjusted the settings while checking the results until she was satisfied.

"Qiu Li, you're back. Did the Marquis say anything?"

Before he even entered his room, he saw Hongyu walking towards him with a concerned expression on her face.

Clearly, Hongyu, being a shrewd and worldly person, had already heard the news that she might be sent away by the madam.

Hongyu served the Marquis just like her, but she was much better off. Hongyu was only responsible for some simple and rough work, while she had to serve him day and night.

In the end, they won't gain anything.

"There were no special instructions, only that I should go and serve them tonight."

Liang Qiuli naturally knew what Hongyu wanted to ask, but she wanted to maintain the original owner's honest and dutiful persona for the time being, so she pretended that she didn't know anything and simply answered Hongyu's question.

"That's good."

Hongyu breathed a slight sigh of relief, but then frowned. She still wanted to get some information from Liang Qiuli so she could make plans for herself in advance.

If she can't become the Marquis's concubine or a mistress, she might as well marry a promising steward. With the Marquis's connection, she can hold her head high in her husband's family.

"Hongyu, I've noticed that Steward Wang comes to see you quite often. Does he have feelings for you?"

In this Marquis's mansion, Hongyu is one of the few people who are somewhat sincere towards Liang Qiuli. After the original owner's parents died, it was Hongyu who took care of their bodies, so Liang Qiuli was willing to remind her of a few things.

That steward, Mr. Wang, is a good man; he's a better match than the Marquis.

Upon hearing Liang Qiuli's words, Hongyu lowered her head shyly and her voice became softer.

"Qiu Li, when did you start making fun of people?"

After saying that, she ran away, but Hongyu's heart was indeed leaning towards marrying Steward Wang.

Liang Qiuli watched Hongyu's departing figure, then turned and went inside. She needed to prepare properly for serving her that evening.

……

"My lord, reading so late is bad for your eyes. You should rest early."

Liang Qiuli stood beside the soft couch, fanning the Marquis, her tone as concerned as ever.

But the Marquis, having grown accustomed to Liang Qiuli's service, merely gave a perfunctory reply to her words and remained engrossed in his book.

Seeing this, Liang Qiuli reached out and gently tugged at the Marquis's sleeve, speaking softly with a hint of coquetry in her voice.

"My lord, it's late. Have you forgotten what I said I would apologize to you for during the day?"

The Marquis then raised his head and looked at Liang Qiuli, only to find that she looked somewhat different tonight.

Tonight, Liang Qiuli was dressed in an ordinary maid's outfit, but her long hair was cleverly tied up, with a few strands falling beside her ears, adding a touch of charm.

What attracted him even more were her watery eyes, which seemed to speak volumes.

In that instant, his desire was aroused, and he put down the book in his hand, but he remained calm and composed, even straightening his somewhat disheveled clothes.

"Oh, so how are you going to apologize?"

The Marquis's tone was somewhat mocking. He leaned back in his chair, his hands folded in front of his chest, his gaze fixed on Liang Qiuli, a half-smile on his face.

Liang Qiuli thought to herself, "Stop pretending, just keep pretending."

However, her smile became even sweeter. She took off her shoes and quietly climbed onto the soft couch where the Marquis was sitting, her voice gentle as water.

"My lord, are you satisfied with this?"

Liang Qiuli slowly approached...

She nestled into the Marquis's arms, her eyes still gazing at him with deep affection.

The Marquis's body stiffened instantly. He looked down at the little woman in his arms, her clear eyes filled with his reflection.

Her innocent and pure eyes made him feel somewhat dazed, as if he really was the omnipotent and reliable man in her heart.

"Satisfied, but there is one thing I don't understand: Qiu Li wasn't like this before!"

The Marquis lifted Liang Qiuli's chin with his hand, making her look directly into his eyes. His gaze was deep and sharp, as if he wanted to see through her true thoughts.

Liang Qiuli smiled slightly. She gently took the Marquis's hand, moved it from her chin, placed it somewhere, and then slowly opened her mouth.

“My lord, I was ignorant before, but after my mother came to see me a few days ago, I suddenly realized how foolish and ignorant I had been.”

With Liang Qiuli's cute, round face, those captivating eyes, and the way she was doing things, if the Marquis could still tolerate it, he would truly become a paragon of virtue.

His Adam's apple bobbed, his eyes narrowed, and his gaze toward Liang Qiuli became even more intense.

"Oh? Then let me take a good look."

After saying that, he flipped over and pinned the person down, taking the initiative.

……

The Marquis was panting heavily, his eyes glazed over as he looked at her, his hands becoming increasingly restless.

……

The two had long since declared themselves an old married couple, so everything went very smoothly afterward.

……

But after the Marquis ordered water once today, he seemed to want more.

……

"Is my apology satisfactory, my lord?"

Liang Qiuli nestled in Chu Yan's arms, her soft voice tinged with a hint of mischief.

"Satisfied, so satisfied that I don't want to let you go to that bitter, cold place."

In a good mood, the Marquis blurted out his words.

That's exactly what I was waiting for.

Liang Qiuli stiffened, then panicked. She reached out and grabbed the Marquis's arm, saying anxiously.

"My lord, what did I do wrong? Why...why are you abandoning me?"

When the Marquis saw Liang Qiuli so anxious that tears were streaming down her face, a strange feeling flashed through his heart. He reached out and put his arm around Liang Qiuli's waist, pulling her closer to him, and said in a low voice.

“Silly girl, I had no choice but to do this. It was my wife who wouldn’t let it go and insisted on sending you to that bitter, cold place before she would tell me…”

The Marquis seemed to remember something he couldn't say, and suddenly stopped talking.

"I had no choice."

Liang Qiuli quickly noticed the strangeness in the Marquis's words. Could it be that Xu Yuerao insisted on sending her away, and there was another reason besides jealousy?

She knew she wouldn't get anything out of the Marquis, so she turned to the system for help. Luckily, she had earned a lot of points from her previous mission, enough for her to find out the whole story.

I... damn...

This is so exciting...

After reading it, Liang Qiuli struggled to keep herself from losing her composure and swearing.
