Bai Jianan stood there with a roguish air. Xiao Rou was taken aback, not expecting the young master to be in her room. She blushed and quickly lowered her head, saying, "Young...Young master, are you well?"

Bai Jianan strolled over leisurely, put his hand on Jian Yue's shoulder, and said lazily, "I am naturally fine. What? Do you all from the Qiu family hope that something bad will happen to me?"

Xiao Rou was so frightened that she immediately knelt down: "Your Highness's mood is unpredictable, this servant did not mean that."

Jian Yue frowned slightly as she saw Bai Jianan's hand on her shoulder, and then she saw Bai Jianan looking at her with a smug look in his eyes.

How was it? Was I a good husband?

The meaning was so clear, it was practically written on his face: "Praise me, praise me!"

Jian Yue glanced at Bai Jianan for a while, thinking that Xiao Cui's safety was still unknown. At this moment, she could only put aside her personal grudges and turned to Xiao Rou with a smile: "Alright, the young master is just joking with you. Get up and go back to your room. If the master asks, just say that the young master took me away."

"Yes, tell your master that I am worried about the people in your Qiu family. Before the wedding, I will personally protect your young lady."

As he spoke, Bai Jianan forcefully pulled Jian Yue forward, and Jian Yue struggled slightly but couldn't break free. Her brows furrowed even more. Seeing this, Bai Jianan quickly whispered in her ear, "My wife, please calm down. I admit my mistake. Isn't admitting my mistake enough? When we come here later, my wife can punish me as she sees fit."

Bai Jianan lowered his posture to an extremely low level, his eyes filled with pleading and doting. Jian Yue's eyebrows twitched, and he no longer resisted as before. Little did she know that Bai Jianan was feeling like a fox who had gotten a great deal, feeling very pleased with himself.

Xiao Rou knelt on the ground and only stood up after Bai Jianan disappeared. She was about to walk into her room when she suddenly stopped, a look of doubt flashing in her eyes.

Miss, still Miss, but why does it feel like you're so much more beautiful today than usual?

After thinking for a long time, Xiaorou still couldn't figure it out, so she shook her head and turned back to her room.

The people of the Qiu family naturally dared not interfere with Bai Jianan. In order to create the impression that Jian Yue was too frightened, weak all over and unsteady on her feet, Bai Jianan simply picked her up and carried her out of the Qiu family's gate.

At this moment, Qiu Zhenzhou had already arrived upon hearing the news. Seeing his daughter being carried away, he immediately stepped forward with a grin and said, "Oh dear, Lingxiu, how could you be so careless? It's all thanks to the young master. Has the kidnapper been caught yet?"

This sycophantic behavior disgusted Jian Yue. Her face tightened, and she pursed her lips without speaking, but her face became even paler, clearly frightened. Seeing this, Bai Jianan suddenly pressed Jian Yue's face into his arms and said to Qiu Zhenzhou, "Don't think that this matter is over. None of my men have ever suffered such a great injustice."

"Since you've come along, I won't bother looking for someone so close. Before the wedding, I will personally protect my bride. You can all go about your business."

Upon hearing this, Qiu Zhenzhou shook his head and said, "Young Master, please forgive me. This is really inappropriate and would disgrace my daughter's reputation. Moreover, today's incident was just an accident and will never happen again."

Bai Jianan turned around and said disdainfully, "It won't happen? Then why didn't your Qiu family find her, but even her maid went missing?"

"Girl? What girl?"

Qiu Zhenzhou looked on with suspicion, then saw Jian Yue nestled in Bai Jianan's arms, crying, "Xiao Cui hasn't returned yet. I don't know what happened. Father, if Xiao Cui is gone, how can I live?"

As she spoke, tears welled up in Jian Yue's eyes. Bai Jianan, feeling sorry for her, quickly comforted her, "Don't cry, don't worry. The Qiu family may not be able to find someone for you, but I, the young master, can find someone for you. I have plenty of money, so I'll find someone."

With that, Bai Jianan turned and left. Qiu Zhenzhou tried to stop him, but the elusive Cang Feng reappeared and blocked Qiu Zhenzhou once again.

Once they were out of Qiu's sight, Jian Yue struggled to say, "I've had enough of taking advantage of you, haven't I? Put me down."

Upon hearing this, Bai Jianan did not put Jian Yue down, but instead tightened his arms around her, and said with a grin, "My lady, don't struggle. Although we have left the Qiu family's sight, there is no guarantee that there are still people from the Qiu family around. It's better to hold her like this."

Only a fool would put her down; he can never get enough of holding his wife.

They were blatantly taking advantage of her, which made Jian Yue so angry that she laughed.

Doesn't he feel embarrassed when his identity is exposed? Only he could be so shameless.

The shameless Bai Jianan, despite the oppressive gaze of his wife, who was worth a million, brought Jian Yue back to the Princess's residence, and then Jian Yue was completely dumbfounded.

"You little rascal, I'll beat you to death! You little brat, bullying girls, how could I have a son like you?"

"Mother, Mother, don't hit me, don't hit me, Mother, listen to me."

"Shut up. How many times have I told you? You like her, so why don't you respect her? You came to my house, what are you doing? Don't you want to preserve her reputation? You bastard, don't you dare run away."

"What if you hurt me if I don't run away? I haven't even gotten married yet."

"Hey, you brat, you dare talk back to your mother? Fine, let's see how long you can run."

The eldest princess was like a shrew, and the young master was as swift as a rabbit. One ran and the other chased. Then, Jian Yue felt a blur before her eyes, and the eldest princess, dressed in heavy clothes, appeared in front of her in an instant.

"Um, what's your name?"

"Ah? Jian Yue."

In a moment of distraction, Jian Yue blurted out her real name. By the time she realized her mistake, it was too late. She glanced sideways at Bai Jianan, who was still standing there with his hands on his hips, looking smug. She was shocked to find that he had no intention of doing anything about it.

The princess gracefully tossed her stray hairs behind her head, then placed the feather duster on Jian Yue's neck. Jian Yue was startled, and then saw the princess frantically winking at her.

"You little brat, run away! If I can't hit you, I can't hit your wife either."

Jian Yue: ...

What on earth is going on? Can anyone tell me? Is this really the eldest princess? How come her shamelessness is exactly the same as Bai Jianan's纨绔 (spoiled brat) manner?

Then, Bai Jianan was seen laughing heartily with his hands on his hips. His face, without a mask, was as radiant as if it were still rising, unrestrained and unpretentious, making him a refreshing sight.

"Go ahead and hit me, Mother. Have you forgotten? You're already complaining about your son being bad and your wife being good even before the marriage is official. I don't believe you can really bring yourself to do it."

Murong Yan was immediately enraged and glared at Bai Jianan.

Watching the battle between the mother and son, Jian Yue found it quite interesting. Suddenly, a brilliant idea flashed in the corner of her eye, and she stopped frowning and squatted down.

"Ouch."

Murong Yan was startled and quickly squatted down to ask, "What's wrong?"

Jian Yue looked up at her and shook her head, then blinked twice. Murong Yan was stunned, and a wicked smile appeared on her lips. Of course, all of this was from Bai Jianan's perspective.

The next moment, Jian Yue said weakly and painfully, "It hurts."

"It hurts? Where does it hurt?" Bai Jianan ignored his mother's threat to hit him and suddenly went to Jian Yue's side, hugging her and asking, "Wife, what's wrong? Where does it hurt?"

Jian Yue looked up and gave him a pale smile: "I... just can't stand the sight of you."

After saying that, while Bai Jianan was still in a daze, she suddenly pushed Bai Jianan to the ground, mounted him directly, and shouted to Murong Yan, "What are you waiting for, Princess? Go!"

Bai Jianan and Murong Yan were both stunned. Then, Murong Yan came to her senses and burst into laughter, the feather duster in her hand trembling. She looked at Bai Jianan evilly and said, "Finally, someone can teach you a lesson."

Bai Jianan remained motionless, staring blankly at Jian Yue.

Jian Yue smiled sweetly at this moment. The smile on her face, which was not disguised, was one that he had never seen before in all the time he had known her. It was so flamboyant, so unrestrained, and so beautiful.

Furthermore, with his beloved riding on top of him, the position was bound to arouse his imagination, and before long, he began to have inappropriate thoughts.

Murong Yan didn't pounce on her. After laughing, Jian Yue felt that the posture was a bit off. However, before she could figure out what was wrong, she realized that the place she was sitting in was not right.

Suddenly, her face turned bright red, and she jumped off Bai Jianan as if she were on fire. Bai Jianan looked at her with pity, which made her grit her teeth in anger.

But joy turned to sorrow. After Bai Jianan got up, Murong Yan grabbed his ear and he cried out, "My dear mother, my dear mother, count, count."

Murong Yan sneered: "What? It hurts? That's good, I'll make you hurt so you'll learn your lesson. Tell me, what kind of trouble are you causing now? You said you like that Qiu family girl? Why did you bring another girl back? What are you trying to do? Take a wife and a concubine all at once? Enjoy the bliss of having multiple wives?"

Upon hearing this, Bai Jianan chuckled. Murong Yan pressed harder, and Bai Jianan quickly begged for mercy: "My goodness, I really didn't, how could I dare?"

Murong Yan didn't believe it: "You dare not? You brought this person back. Don't tell me I didn't see him. You even carried him back. And you still say you dare not?"

As she spoke, she increased the pressure on her hands, causing Bai Jianan to groan in pain. He kept glancing at Jian Yue for help, but Jian Yue watched with great interest, pretending not to see Bai Jianan's pleas for help.

They've been lying to me for so long, and they keep setting traps for me. They deserve to suffer some consequences. I'll let it slide. After all, even a mother wouldn't hit her hard.

Seeing that Jian Yue really didn't intend to interfere, Bai Jianan stopped joking around and quickly said, "Mother, look carefully, she is none other than your future daughter-in-law."

Murong Yan was taken aback, then turned to look at Jian Yue, squinted and observed her carefully for a long time, before turning back and giving Bai Jianan a flick on the forehead.

"You're talking nonsense. Do you think I'm old and my eyesight is failing? Her face is far more alluring than your future daughter-in-law's."
