So many things happened today, Rong Xi was really tired.

When Xiao Qingze came back, he saw the person he had been thinking about all day sleeping on the chaise longue beside him.

He walked over quietly, but stopped when he was still a few steps away from Rong Xi.

He didn't expect Rong Xi to be so alert. With his skills, even if he had been lying there for two years, it would not be easy for ordinary people to find him.

"Xi'er, get up and eat something before going to sleep."

Rong Xi just felt that someone was approaching her. When she opened her eyes and saw it was Xiao Qingze, she wanted to fall asleep again without any defense.

She turned over and faced away from Xiao Qingze, completely unaware of how fiery Xiao Qingze's eyes were at that moment.

It was originally just a casual turn over, but the blanket on Rong Xi's body was pulled over as she turned over, revealing an enchanting curve.

Her jet-black hair casually hung behind her, and her slender waist made her already perky butt look like a peach, very tempting.

The scenes from last night appeared in Xiao Qingze's mind again, driving him to move closer to Rong Xi step by step.

"Xi'er."

The deep and hoarse voice, coupled with the extremely aggressive look, made Rong Xi, who was sleeping on the couch, feel a chill on his back.

She instantly lost all sleepiness and stood up the moment Xiao Qingze touched her.

"what are you up to?"

Xiao Qingze touched his nose awkwardly. He did have the urge to touch her just now.

But another emotion was also stuck in his heart. He didn't understand why Rong Xi was still so resistant to contact with him when they had already become husband and wife last night.

Seeing Rong Xi like this, he could only quietly take a step back.

"I just saw your blanket slipping off, so I wanted to pull it down for you."

"Ah."

Rong Xi was no longer sleepy. He stood up and walked out, completely ignoring Xiao Qingze who was still standing next to him. Even if he just glanced at him, he could see the hurt expression on Xiao Qingze's face.

While having dinner, Rong Xi discovered that Xiao Qingze had been secretly looking at her. When she looked over, Xiao Qingze had returned to his usual attentive look while eating.

Rong Xi felt that he must have something to say to her, but after waiting for a whole night, he showed no intention of asking, so she simply did not ask him. Anyway, he would come and ask him himself when he couldn't hold it in anymore.

For several days in a row, Xiao Qingze seemed to be hesitant to speak, which made Rong Xi feel that the way he looked at her was strange.

Especially after every night of lovemaking, he would hold Rong Xi tightly in his arms.

.

That day, Tang Wan came to Rong Xi's place again. From the moment she entered the door, she was observing every corner of the room intentionally or unintentionally.

"Cousin, what are you looking at?"

Tang Wan now finally understood that Jiang Rongxi would not transfer her to her courtyard.

Since she doesn't transfer herself over, she'll have to find a way herself.

She has an unclear relationship with the guard, so this time she wants to find evidence and get hold of her handle to see if she still refuses to listen to her.

"Rong Xi, your boyfriend didn't come today? Why didn't you let your cousin meet him? After all, I am your closest person in the Marquis of Wuding's mansion. You can ask your cousin to see him so that she can check him for you."

"Who is that person my cousin is talking about?"

Rong Xiyu looked at Tang Wan jokingly. She found that the cousin of the original owner was quite interesting.

"Rong Xi, are you still hiding this from your cousin? Your cousin won't tell anyone."

"Cousin, you must have misunderstood."

"What misunderstanding? This is all for your own good. If you really spend your whole life guarding that living dead man inside, then what's the difference between you and a widow? Are you still thinking about your uncle's student?"

Tang Wan felt that this was not impossible. Before Jiang Rongxi got married, she always knew that she was in love with that scholar and had helped him many times.

"Cousin, do you know that every word you say now will kill me? My husband is a living dead, so you must think that I will go out and find a man. If this gets out, I will be dragged and drowned in the pond."

Rong Xi made this clear, just to see if this cousin could stay. If she still had a trace of humanity, then she would let her go.

"Rong Xi, this is a secret between you and me. No one knows it, and it will not be spread out. Don't worry, your cousin will keep it a secret for you. Are you the guard or the scholar who is Xinyue?"

Rong Xi did not answer. She had given her the opportunity, but there was nothing she could do if she didn't want it.

"Someone is coming."

When Rong Xi said these two words, Tang Wan finally felt a little nervous, but thinking that Jiang Rong Xi was the kind of person who could be manipulated by others, she was no longer in a hurry.

Chunlan came in from outside, holding a tray with a piece of written paper and a brush on it.

Chunlan placed the tray in front of Tang Wan. The moment she put it down, she clearly saw the first three words: "Selling Contract."

"Rong Xi, what do you mean?"

She was really nervous this time. She almost forgot that even though Rong Xi was her cousin, she was now the legitimate wife of Marquis Wuding.

"Sign this and you can leave today, otherwise..."

"Rong Xi, what do you mean? I am your cousin and my mother is your aunt. How can you make me sign a contract to sell myself? Oh! I get it. You treat me like this because I discovered your secret."

"I'm telling you, I will never sign it. If you dare to force me, I will spread your scandal everywhere and make you lose face. Then, will you still be able to be the wife of the Marquis of Wuding?"

Rong Xi did not become panicky at all because of Tang Wan's threat. Instead, he drank the tea in his hand slowly.

"Oh, I'm curious, if I can't be the wife of Marquis Wu Ding, who will do it, you?"

Tang Wan was not in a hurry when her thoughts were exposed. She was sure that Jiang Rongxi was under her control.

"Rong Xi, you should spend your best years with the one you love. I have watched you grow up, and I can't bear to see you living a life of widowhood. If you really have someone you love, then I am willing to be a widow for you."

"really?"

"Of course, we are cousins."

"Okay, then you sign this contract first, otherwise I don't believe you won't betray me."

"This……"

"Cousin, are you lying to me?"

"No, no, I just..."

Tang Wan felt that Jiang Rongxi had changed. She had never been so aggressive before, so why had she become like this now?

She always felt something was wrong, but couldn't put it into words, so she ended up signing the contract.

It was not until she returned to her residence that she discovered that she had signed a contract to sell her body, but Jiang Rongxi did not give her any guarantees, and did not even say that he would transfer her back to the main courtyard.

"Tang Wan, where have you been again? You lazy bastard, you just slack off all day long. Why don't you go fetch some water?"

Seeing that the housekeeper's whip was about to hit her, Tang Wan quickly got up and went to work.

"Mammy, I'm going to my cousin's wife's place. She wants to see me for something. I'll go get to work now."

"Go quickly."

Tang Wan didn't have time to think about those things, so she could only quickly take the bucket and go to the well to fetch water.
