The eldest son was also very promising and was highly valued by the master. As a result, the second branch of the family was naturally very arrogant. Qiu Lingxue often manipulated and teased the half-sisters. Over time, this naturally made Qiu Lingxue resentful and unable to swallow her anger.

The day before yesterday, she was tricked by Jian Yue, slapped, and threatened. She returned home in a daze, only to overhear Qiu Lingxue's conversation with the maid. This woman actually had designs on the heir of Qingyan Marquis and was even planning how to bump into him and seduce him.

He certainly wouldn't let such a good opportunity slip by.

Qiu Lingxiu, Qiu Lingxue, Qiu Lingrong, I will not let any of you go. I'm waiting to see your final fate.

After Jian Yue finished tidying up, she waited in the side hall for a long time but the main person did not appear. Just as she was wondering what was going on, she saw Xiao Cui come back from outside in a strange voice and whisper in her ear.

Upon hearing this, she was immediately surprised, her eyes abruptly turning to Xiao Cui as she asked, "Are you sure it's true? That Qiu Lingxue is also so restless?"

Xiao Cui said angrily, "That's right, how dare they intercept us on the road? They're not even human, they even flirted with their own brother-in-law."

Jian Yue suddenly laughed and said, "It's good that you've hooked up with him. Once he's gone, we'll be much more relaxed. Why are you so dissatisfied? Could it be that you've changed your mind and think it's a good thing for your young lady to marry that prince?"

Xiao Cui immediately denied it: "That's right, Miss. I just think the people in the Qiu family are all monsters. They're all always causing trouble. If they lose their heads, they won't even know how they died."

Jian Yue chuckled: "Why do you care about those things? They have nothing to do with us. We're not permanent residents anyway. If it's beneficial to us, then of course we should support it."

"My lady, are you angry because I didn't come sooner? Why do you say that? I'm not happy about it at all."

As soon as Jian Yue finished speaking, Bai Jianan walked in with a smile. With just one sentence, Jian Yue realized that he had heard everything she had said. She paused for a moment, then smiled and said, "Young Master gets angry so easily, catching me off guard. I don't know what kind of temper Young Master has. How should I coax him?"

Bai Jianan raised an eyebrow: "Do you think I'm a three-year-old child?"

"Isn't that right?" Bai Jianan suddenly smiled, took a few quick steps and arrived at Jian Yue's side. Seeing this, Xiao Cui hurriedly shielded Jian Yue behind her, puffed out her slightly weak chest, and said tremblingly, "Young Master, would you like some tea? This servant will make you some tea."

Bai Jianan silently looked at Xiao Cui, whose eerie green eyes made Xiao Cui wish she could disappear into the ground. But since her young mistress was behind her, she forced herself to continue with a forced smile: "Um, young master, are you tired? This servant will give you a back massage."

Bai Jianan looked at Jian Yue and said mockingly, "Is this your household's maid?"

Jian Yue nodded: "Of course, my girl isn't bad, is she!"

Bai Jianan nodded: "Not bad, it seems you're doing quite well in this manor. However, you can't treat others like this, but you can't treat me like this, Cangfeng."

As soon as Bai Jianan finished speaking, Xiao Cui felt a sudden gust of cold wind on her head. Instantly, she was lifted into the air and landed to the side. Then, she was unable to move.

Throughout the entire process, she didn't even have a chance to scream. When she finally calmed down, she saw that familiar expressionless face in front of her, and she was immediately furious.

"It's you again! Let me go, you bastard!"

Seeing this, Jian Yue raised an eyebrow at Bai Jianan: "Your guard..."

Bai Jianan immediately said proudly, "How about it? Not bad, right?"

As he spoke, he took a step and was already beside Jian Yue. Inhaling the fragrance emanating from her, Bai Jianan felt that his life was complete.

Jian Yue tilted her head back, ignoring Bai Jianan's actions, and said as naturally as possible, "Not bad, but even with such good skills, I'm afraid it can't compare to the young master's!"

Upon hearing this, Bai Jianan smiled and said, "What? Testing this young master?"

Jian Yue raised her eyes: "Is the young master afraid of being tested?"

Jian Yue looked at Bai Jianan, who didn't move. She thought Bai Jianan was stumped by her question, but then she saw Bai Jianan suddenly move closer to her. In his eyes, she could see an undeniable dominance, as well as something she couldn't ignore but couldn't understand.

Bai Jianan spoke up: "I have never forgotten what I said. Could it be that you, my wife, have not taken it to heart?"

Jian Yue was startled again, and then saw Bai Jianan's tone suddenly become gentle. He looked at Jian Yue, his nose almost touching Jian Yue's face, and his eyes also became gentle.

"As I have said, my princess consort will stand proudly in front of others, including me. In front of me, you don't need to pretend or fake anything. What I have is all yours."

Jian Yue was stunned by what she was told. After a long while, she murmured, "Your Highness is too kind."

"It's not serious, I'm quite pleased."

Bai Jianan suddenly moved closer to Jian Yue. Jian Yue reflexively retreated, but was immediately cornered by Bai Jianan. Bai Jianan held her like this, looking at her seriously and said, "This young master knows martial arts, and is even quite skilled. What does my wife want? To go through fire and water? To kill or set fire? Just say the word, whisper in my ear, and this young master will do it immediately."

Knowing that Bai Jianan was answering her earlier question, but not expecting that he would also flirt with her, Jian Yue was immediately annoyed and glared at him with a red face.

But the tenderness in those eyes made it impossible for her to muster any enthusiasm. After a short time of eye contact, she gave in, pursed her lips, and stubbornly turned her face away, no longer looking at Bai Jianan.

Bai Jianan chuckled, then said in an even more frivolous tone, "Is my wife playing hard to get? Not bad, I like it very much. Whatever else my wife knows, just use it on me."

She wanted to stop arguing with him and let him say whatever he wanted, since she wouldn't lose any skin. But this man was incredibly shameless. Relying on his status as a playboy, he displayed the spirit of a rogue to the fullest.

Seeing that Jian Yue ignored him, he immediately became interested and started touching her all over, forcing Jian Yue to stare at him again before he stopped.

"Young Master, what exactly do you want to do?"

"you guess."

Seeing Bai Jianan's excited and expectant gaze, Jian Yue finally understood what kind of person Hua Xiangrong was describing when she said "pervert." The one in front of her must be a pervert, and the best of the best.

She must be crazy to have developed even a slight liking for such a pervert.

Jian Yue composed herself before saying, "Young Master has been here for quite some time today, and must be very busy. Perhaps you should leave soon."

"What? Are you telling me to leave? My wife, are you really willing to let me go?"

Bai Jianan looked aggrieved, his eyes filled with affection, and coupled with his affected tone, Jian Yue felt goosebumps all over her body.

Is this prince sick? He keeps changing his attitude, making her a little neurotic.

She turned her head and stared at Bai Jianan silently for a long time, but in the end she could no longer ignore the piece of meat in front of her.

"Has Your Highness considered that pushing too hard might backfire? Aren't you afraid that things might turn out the opposite of what you intended?"

Jian Yue's words carried a sense of resignation, as she realized that all her plans and arrangements seemed to have been disrupted ever since she met this unconventional young master.

Moreover, she always had a feeling that what she did was nothing more than watching her play some childish games in the eyes of the other party. The plans she made were just amusement that they didn't take seriously. They were just waiting for her to act so that they could laugh at her.

"What are you afraid of? What can you possibly do against me? Isn't it good for me to spoil you?"

Jian Yue trembled. She looked up and was immediately drawn to Bai Jianan's gaze. That deep look, that familiar feeling, came over her again. She was a little stunned, and her eyes were filled with a bit of confusion.

Xiao Cui was extremely anxious. Her young mistress was about to be taken advantage of, and she couldn't do anything to help.

"Young Master, Young Master, there are differences between men and women, men and women... Waaaaaah~~"

You think you can hide your strength and silence people? You just wait, once I can move again, I'll kill you.

Xiao Cui stared intently at Zang Feng, wishing she could shoot him dead with her eyes. But the other party didn't even blink, staring straight ahead at the door as if nothing had happened.

"I……"

Before Jian Yue could finish speaking, Bai Jianan suddenly extended two fingers and touched her lips. He smiled, suppressed the turmoil in his heart, and took two steps away. This immediately made Jian Yue feel like she could breathe fresh air again, and she felt much more comfortable.

For once, Bai Jianan refrained from teasing his future wife. He put his hand down and said seriously, "There are some things that are inconvenient to say. Whether I keep my word or not, you can just watch. The main reason I came here today is that I've missed you terribly. A day apart feels like three autumns. Also, the betrothal gifts have been given, and now it's your turn to handle things."

Just watch? That's all?

Jian Yue's heart skipped a beat. After a long while, she composed herself and frowned, asking, "My business?"

"Yes, of course it's your business, my wife."

As she spoke, Jian Yue watched as Bai Jianan produced a fan and casually waved it, displaying an air of utter dissoluteness.

Young Master, are you a magician? And it's almost winter, aren't you cold fanning yourself?

Jian Yue looked left and right, her eyes shifting, and opened her mouth, but ultimately didn't ask the question.

Then, Jian Yue suddenly widened her eyes and said, "Young Master, could you please change your form of address? Although the deed is done, we are not yet married, so this form of address..."

Bai Jianan shook his head indifferently, and said smugly, "Of course not. We're getting married anyway, and changing things up and down is too much trouble. It's better to call him now and practice makes perfect. Wouldn't that kill two birds with one stone?"

Jian Yue sighed, knowing that this guy would never change his form of address, so she could only give up and continue to ask, "May the young master continue what he just said?"
