A week later, Hua Xiangrong finally got to eat meat. The two thirsty people got together and started an endless war until they were startled awake by a doorbell.

Rubbing her aching lower back, Hua Xiangrong frowned and muttered, "Oh dear, my back! Have you been eating deer antler and tiger bone all these years?"

Shangguan Hanque, with his eyes closed, stretched out an arm and pulled Hua Xiangrong, who was about to get up, into his arms, lying her down again, saying, "Don't worry about it, keep sleeping."

Hua Xiangrong closed her eyes, but she couldn't get any peace and quiet. She complained, "Which bastard is disturbing my sleep? I mean, who else knows about this house?"

Shangguan Hanque was also annoyed and frowned. Helplessly, he got up, put on his clothes and went out. He saw the person through the peephole and immediately went back to his room, slammed the door shut, and got into bed.

"Never mind, they'll leave if no one agrees."

Hua Xiangrong turned over and looked at Shangguan Hanque, asking, "You recognize him?"

"Hmm. I can't be bothered with that woman who's staying at home trying to seize the family fortune."

Hua Xiangrong raised an eyebrow: "Your sister? What's she doing here?"

"What can she do? You want me to arrange a job for that useless man of hers? He doesn't know anything but gambling all day long, he's half-hearted, has no ambition, and complains when he's a little tired. He's more troublesome than those gossipy old women."

As Shangguan Hanque spoke, he stood up and impatiently began to put on his clothes. Hua Xiangrong also put on her clothes and said, "Your parents don't care about your sister's condition?"

The doorbell rang incessantly, ringing patiently and relentlessly. Even without opening the door, they had no desire to continue sleeping.

Shangguan Hanque chuckled and said, "When you're too ambitious, you naturally won't listen to anyone, especially with a man stirring things up behind you. The old man knows what they're thinking and doesn't pay them any attention. But my mother, on the other hand, is always causing trouble for me because of her instigation."

You don't even need to guess; if she's at the door, my mother is definitely nearby and will be here soon. Looks like we need to change the security personnel here again.

After thinking it over, Hua Xiangrong realized that someone had leaked the news that they were at home to his eccentric family members, and it seemed that no one else could have done it but someone in the neighborhood.

And this neighborhood...

Hua Xiangrong asked, "Why did you only say it was done by security? What if someone else knew you were back and deliberately sold the news? Wouldn't that be wronging an innocent person?"

Shangguan Hanque had finished getting ready and picked up his phone to start searching. He explained, "There aren't many people living in this neighborhood. Many people have bought houses here so that a person like me who doesn't like noise can have some peace and quiet. There are only three buildings here, and only about a dozen people stay here each day. The cleaning is done by temporary workers hired by the security guards. So, the only people here who would know I'm back and be able to notify others immediately are the security guards at the entrance."

Hua Xiangrong immediately shook her finger and said, "That's not right. It's not the first time anymore. We've been living here for more than half a month now. It's obviously different from what you said."

Shangguan Hanque chuckled and pinched her nose, saying, "You've wasted your time as an assassin. How come you've become so stupid? If the security guards had told them I was back when we returned, wouldn't that have been telling everyone that he was the one who tipped us off?"

After some time, if he finds that I still have no intention of leaving, he will then notify me, so that no one will suspect anything.

Hua Xiangrong sat on the bed with her knees drawn up to her chest and laughed, "But you still doubted him, didn't you?"

"It's not doubt, it's certainty."

Shangguan Hanque said, "This is not our final home. It's just that the New Year is approaching, and the old man wants us to go back for a reunion dinner. It would be too much trouble to go back and forth, so we've brought you here to make do for a while."

I come back every year around this time and stay for a while, just at different times. But every time, those two women take turns coming to cause trouble. Think about it, if it weren't for a security leak, how could such a heavily guarded place let people I don't like into the city and cause trouble without even calling me?"

Hua Xiangrong suddenly realized and said, "Ah, I didn't expect I've really become stupid. This is like the thief crying 'stop thief!' and then making a mistake on his own side."

Shangguan Hanque nodded: "Yes, they're obsessed with money. I really don't know how many lives they have to continue enjoying this kind of money."

As Shangguan Hanque was about to open the door to leave, Hua Xiangrong immediately got up from the bed and said, "What are you going to do? Open the door?"

"No, let her die. Someone will come up and fork them out in a bit. I'll go make you breakfast."

Hua Xiangrong felt a warmth in her heart and couldn't help but ask, "What about that security guard? Should we deal with him?"

Shangguan Hanque smiled and looked at Hua Xiangrong, saying, "What are you thinking? How could I possibly take action against someone like this personally? For me, the best solution is to win without bloodshed."

Hua Xiangrong raised an eyebrow: "The great general who used to love galloping across the battlefield and personally leading the charge has actually found out about how to win without bloodshed?"

Shangguan Hanque was unmoved by Hua Xiangrong's mockery. He said, "There's no other way. Killing people here is too troublesome. In order to avoid trouble and wait for my beloved wife, I can only use my brain. The security here is handled by my nobles. With these annoying things happening again and again, do you think I will continue to live here?"

Hua Xiangrong never saw the so-called sister. After Shangguan Hanque finished his morning exercises and the two sat down at the table to eat, the doorbell stopped ringing abruptly. Then, Shangguan Hanque's phone rang, but he didn't answer it. Instead, he elegantly handed the breakfast to Hua Xiangrong and said, "Eat quickly. After you finish, we'll go see the new place."

Hua Xiangrong picked up the knife and fork, and while eating, she said with relish, "Mmm! I never thought that after going through life and death, I would only realize at the end that my husband is such a great person. Ah~ I'm so happy."

Shangguan Hanque smiled and said, "Your happy days are yet to come."

Hua Xiangrong smiled but remained silent. After the two had breakfast, Shangguan Hanque picked up the phone, looked at it for a while, and then frowned and said, "It seems that it wasn't just the security guard who leaked the information. The old man asked me to take you back for a family reunion dinner."

Hua Xiangrong tossed her short hair and said disdainfully, "Go ahead and eat. I'm not a coward. Besides, you said that old man might like me."

Shangguan Hanque shook his head, covering his mouth and said, "It's not that simple. I've already confirmed your identity. It's just that they've never seen you before. Now, you've suddenly appeared here and are even related to the assassination of the person in charge of the AT banquet. The old man is cunning; I'm afraid he's up to no good."

Upon hearing this, Hua Xiangrong suddenly chuckled and said, "So what? Do you really think your wife is made of clay? Don't forget how I've survived these past twenty years, and how I've struggled and struggled in your family. Although there was a lot of luck involved, I'm still the kind of person everyone loves. Don't worry, if I can't even handle an old man, I, Hua Xiangrong, really don't deserve to be your wife."

Shangguan Hanque smiled, showing no worry in his eyes. He got up and went to his study. A moment later, he came out and handed Hua Xiangrong two notebooks, saying, "Take a look at this. I should have given it to you a long time ago."

Hua Xiangrong put down her knife and fork, picked them up, and laughed, "What? My new identity? It can't be..."

As soon as she finished speaking, she was slightly surprised. After a long while, she put down the notebook in her hand and looked at Shangguan Hanque incredulously, saying, "How did you do that? Ten years ago, I was only ten years old. How could you register as my legal husband? Even in the US, that would be impossible!"

Shangguan Hanque smiled mysteriously and said smugly, "This is what they mean by having connections in the imperial court. As long as you pay enough, there's nothing you can't get done."

Hua Xiangrong shook her head and frowned: "But if this matter is really exposed, you will be branded as a child molester. Tsk tsk, your hobby is quite unusual."

Shangguan Hanque reluctantly stood up, grabbed Hua Xiangrong across the table, and after seeing the mockery in her eyes, said helplessly, "This hobby of mine has lasted for decades, and I can't change it. My dear wife, you'll just have to put up with it."

Putting everything else aside for now, let me review your own information first. Although I haven't revealed your identity or status to anyone, it's better to be safe than sorry.

Hua Xiangrong scoffed, moved the things aside, stood up, and lifted Shangguan Hanque's chin with one finger, teasingly saying, "What documents are you looking at? You didn't even write your name on the marriage certificate, so how can they know if it's real or fake? When has your woman ever let you down? It's just about identity, isn't it?"

As Hua Xiangrong spoke, she picked up the nameless marriage certificate and tossed it to Shangguan Hanque, saying, "You'd better deal with this thing. I have an identity, an identity that even the headman doesn't know, called Rong Qingcheng. As for what level it is, you can find out by investigating. It's perfect and impeccable."

Shangguan Hanque smiled, sat down, picked up the phone and started operating it. Hua Xiangrong sat quietly to the side watching him, listening to the changes in language he made from time to time, and the pride in her eyes deepened.

This is the kind of man who created a kingdom for her, just so he could leave unscathed when she arrived.

This man is hers; it's unbelievable.

After about an hour, Shangguan Hanque put down the phone, smiled at Hua Xiangrong, and said, "All done."

As he spoke, he took Hua Xiangrong's hand and led her to the study, where he turned on the computer.

After logging into a website, Hua Xiangrong's personal information was displayed.

Rong Qingcheng, 23 years old, marital status unknown, graduated from Stanfield University in the United States, currently works as a divorce counselor in Chinatown, has handled more than 1,300 divorce cases of varying sizes, successfully helped more than 1,300 families reconcile, and has an annual income of over ten million.

Then, Shangguan Hanque opened another website, which displayed a marriage certificate with Shangguan Hanque's photo and Hua Xiangrong's childhood photo.

The name Rong Qingcheng has been added to the empty space above Hua Xiangrong's name, and the time was ten years ago.
