Xiao Yuan, being powerful and influential, had been flattered countless times, both openly and covertly, in all sorts of ways.

But no one has ever made him as happy as Jiang Xinyu.

Seeing the young lady's adoring gaze, Xiao Yuan felt a little smug.

Those bastards from the Eastern Depot did a great job; we'll reward them with something nice later.

He used to think it was foolish for adults to spend lavishly to win a smile from a beautiful woman, but now he understands that kind of joy.

A delicate beauty treats you like an omnipotent deity; who wouldn't be bewildered?

It's just that his little beauty expresses her affection in such an unreserved way that he's finding it hard to handle.

Watching Xiao Yuan flee in disarray once again, Jiang Xinyu licked her lips. It's alright, there's plenty of time in the future.

Even the 18th touch has to be done step by step!

First touch the head, then the chest, and after touching the face, touch the scrotum.

In just two days, she was already able to hug Xiao Yuan's neck. From a scientific point of view, this speed is not slow at all.

Let's wait a little longer; she's quite patient.

If Xiao Yuan still refuses to sleep in the same room with her after 5 days, she will force herself on him.

So what if you know martial arts? Of all the martial arts in the world, speed is the only thing that can't be broken. Besides, brute force can overcome any technique.

The housekeeper brought her a lot of tonics today; if she finishes them, her strength will be restored by half.

Xiao Yuan's original, unenhanced physique was no match for her punch.

There's no need for so many twists and turns. Xiao Yuan clearly likes her, and coincidentally, she's also very satisfied with this man.

It's just because they don't have that inferiority complex, right? Just knock them out and drag them away.

The next day, when he found himself covered in hickeys and completely naked, he knew that she truly didn't mind him anymore, and any lingering resentment he might have felt was instantly resolved.

Once she gets over that mental hurdle, she believes the two of them will be able to live happily ever after.

Xiao Yuan was unaware that the stone he had moved was about to fall on his own foot. After escaping back to his courtyard and calming down for a while, he called his men to ask if there was any new development.

Don't say it, there really is.

The people watching the Li family reported that the family of Chunhong, the maid who accompanied the lady in her dowry, had been released and returned home. They seemed to have received some money and looked radiant, not at all like they had suffered.

Xiao Yuan tapped the table and gave a cold laugh, "Later, have someone set a trap to have that family sign indentures and send them to the estate to be kept under guard."

Since Madam doesn't want Chunhong dead, it would be best to gather as much leverage as possible.

His subordinate replied that he would do it immediately, and Xiao Yuan picked up the intelligence report on the table and began to read it.

His wife is a mystery in every way. Her previous arrogance, viciousness, and stupidity were all an act. Is her current kindness also an act?

If she couldn't bear to kill a treacherous maid, why would she fall in love with a ruthless killer like him?

Does the other party not know my background?

how is this possible.

Xiao Yuan's infamy is known throughout the capital. His young wife, who loves reading storybooks, is bound to be gossipy and must have heard something.

I can't figure it out; everything about it seems contradictory.

However, after thinking about it for a while, Xiao Yuan felt relieved. No matter what she was like before, whether she was pretending to be kind or genuinely kind, as long as she was willing to stay with him, that was enough.

If she doesn't like bloodshed and killing, then try not to let her know about the outside world. If some people who deserve to die are executed in secret, there's no need to argue with her.

I'm so much older than her, so as long as it's not too difficult, I should spoil her a bit more.

Thinking about his age, Xiao Yuan unconsciously hummed again.

At such a young age, she doesn't learn anything good and spends all her time looking at picture books; her little girl's mind is full of lewd nonsense.

I've only been married to her for two days and she's already taken advantage of me so much. If it weren't for my inability to...

Frustrated, Xiao Yuan threw down the documents in his hand and rubbed his temples. This couldn't go on forever.

Many powerful eunuchs had extramarital residences, and they would keep some women in those residences.

Some did get formal marriages, but people of their status couldn't marry decent ladies from prominent families; they mostly married daughters of minor officials or merchants.

Even though those women's families relied on their power to gain advantages and benefits, few of those women truly cared about them.

It's already good enough if she can keep her chastity and not cheat on her husband; to expect genuine affection from him is simply asking for too much.

His young wife comes from a good family and is beautiful. She has a large dowry and is not the type to be submissive. Can she really stay by his side forever?

Even if the little girl likes his face now, it's inevitable that she'll be left alone and unsatisfied...

No, he absolutely cannot allow his wife to have an affair with someone else.

Xiao Yuan took a deep breath and opened a hidden compartment in the corner of the table. His face flushed involuntarily as he looked at what was inside.

This was a gift that Xiao Ling had someone bring to him before his marriage: a booklet teaching eunuchs how to please women and a set of... jade dildos.

Xiao Yuan's eyes seemed to want to bore a hole through the box, but after hesitating for a long time, he still couldn't bring himself to pick it up.

Let's wait a little longer; let him recover in a few more days.

This shouldn't be too difficult to learn, but he couldn't accept exposing his disability to his wife.

If the little girl is disappointed and disgusted when she sees his body, will she stop looking at him with adoring eyes in the future?

Will she never want to be close to him again?

The thought of his wife avoiding him and looking at Xiao Yuan with such disgust made his chest feel tight.

The feeling was like when I messed up a task and my godfather looked at me with disappointment; it was bittersweet.

The lady's small hands were soft, and touching his face felt like touching feathers, making him feel itchy.

His lips smelled sweet and fragrant, and although he had only tasted them once, the memory always sent shivers down his spine.

And the way she looked at him—joyful, adoring, tender, and delighted—her eyes were filled with him.

If he had never received it, that would be fine, but now that he has tasted the feeling of being loved, he really can't bear to lose it.

Xiao Yuan felt conflicted.

He was thinking about confronting Jiang Xinyu as soon as possible and letting her know what a eunuch really was.

He then thought that he could prolong the time as long as possible, and that it would be best to let Jiang Xinyu love him more and more deeply, until she was completely used to his presence and couldn't bear to leave him.

But he couldn't make up his mind no matter which method he used.

To lay all your cards on the table is a huge gamble.

Let her know how ugly her scars are and that he can't give her true happiness.

If he wins the gamble and his wife is still willing to love him, he will not only learn the book and how to use the tools, but he can even find a courtesan skilled in lovemaking to teach him how to please his wife.

Even if he couldn't have sex with her, he would find other ways to bring her pleasure.

They can live happily together, and he will never let her live worse than any other woman, except that he cannot let her have children.

Even if you lose the bet, it's fine.

Before he gets too deeply involved, we should withdraw and never expect love or romance again.

He was doing just fine without all that before, so why make things difficult for himself?

These past two days of beautiful dreams have shattered, but that's that; time heals all wounds.

Perhaps when he actually sees the look of disgust in Jiang Xinyu's eyes, he will no longer have any romantic thoughts.
