Everyone at the table raised their heads and looked outside the house expectantly.

Jiang Chengxiao was tied up, and Jiang Chengzhong was standing behind him, pushing him forward.

When passing the high threshold, he staggered and almost fell to the ground.

Thanks to Jiang Chengzhong for helping him, otherwise he would have fallen flat on his face.

"What's wrong with second brother?" Jiang Jinyu couldn't help but ask curiously.

"It's okay, it's okay. I sparred a few rounds with big brother last night. My boxing skills are not as good as his, so this is the punishment." Jiang Chengxiao explained hurriedly, as if someone was snatching it from him.

When everyone saw his expression, they knew that he was not telling the truth, but Jiang Chengzhong and Lu Ling did not expose his lie.

[System, what's going on? This looks like a big deal, hurry up and get some to eat.]

As soon as Xu Wanying's voice came out from the bottom of her heart, Jiang Chengxiao froze. How could he have forgotten about this again? Even if he got away with it, his third brother's wife would not let him go.

【Let me take a look! 】

The system's voice suddenly rose, and it was obviously very excited: [Ahaha, last night the eldest and second sons of the Jiang family took people out to do some work, and happened to pass by the Princess's residence and saw that it was on fire. The second son of the Jiang family found Xiaoya as a guest at the Princess's residence and was very worried, so he went up to show some concern.]

[He was called away by Boss Jiang before he could settle Xiaoya down. After returning to the mansion, he lay in bed all night, unable to sleep. He was very worried. Finally, he decided to get up and check on Xing Xiaoya to make sure she was safe.]

Xu Wanying couldn't help but raise her eyebrows when she heard this: [Tsk, hasn't Jiang Chengxiao looked for Xing Xiaoya for a long time? I thought he had completely forgotten about her.]

[In the whole world, he can only react to Xiaoya, how could he forget her? This playboy will die if he leaves a woman, right? And I'll tell you a little secret, he hasn't been able to have sex with Xiaoya yet, but after they have sex, he will find that it's wonderful, and his life as a man in the first half of his life will be in vain...]

The system clicked its tongue as it spoke, with a tone full of emotion.

[Shut up! Don't say these words that will dirty my ears.] Xu Wanying interrupted immediately. She closed her eyes and had no appetite at all facing the table full of food.

When the other members of the Jiang family heard this, they had different thoughts, but they all remained calm. After all, they heard such shocking words every now and then. Although they would still be shocked, their bodies had formed a conditioned reflex. No matter what nonsense they heard, they had to maintain the state of being an otherworldly master.

[Hey, host, I told you, the power of the plot is huge. Even if there are deviations in the middle, it will get back on track in the end! ]

The system doesn’t care if it’s scolded; instead, it’s still very excited.

Jiang Chengxiao was untied, and several people sat down. Although he tried his best to remain calm, after hearing what the system said, Xing Xiaoya automatically appeared in his mind. In fact, because he was forced to abstain from sex for too long, his body reacted just by thinking about it in his mind.

He immediately coughed lightly, trying to suppress the anger in his heart, but it was of no use.

Lu Ling was sitting next to him. As a husband and wife, she knew him very well.

When she saw the man's red ears, she immediately had some guesses in her heart. She quietly reached her hand under the table, pinched his thigh hard, and twisted the piece of meat hard.

Jiang Chengxiao arched his back in pain and almost cried out, but fortunately he held it back at the last moment.

However, because the painful expression on his face was too obvious, it attracted the attention of people around him and could not be concealed at all.

"Second brother, what's wrong with you again?" Marquis Zhongyi at the side couldn't help but speak, and emphasized the word "again".

"I just bumped my leg." He could only make up an excuse.

"Why are you so fragile? After you retired from the battlefield, you have become more and more spoiled in the past few years. You don't even feel pain when your sister gets bumped, but you are grinning. What, have you become a royal branch and jade leaf too?" Marquis Zhongyi said with disgust.

Jiang Chengxiao couldn't even say a word to refute and could only suffer in silence.

"Husband, where were you trying to go in your nightgown last night? Tell me about it while everyone is here." Lu Ling frowned and took the initiative to start a conversation.

The main thing is that Jiang Chengxiao is in this state. It is obvious that he is influenced by Xing Xiaoya and he can't forget about her.

The way he sneaked out last night clearly showed that he couldn't wait even a moment and wanted to see Xing Xiaoya.

If he doesn't let the artifact say a few more words, he will probably have to go find Xing Xiaoya. Although his father-in-law and eldest brother will be watching him, there is no such thing as a thief. If he catches an opportunity and goes to meet Xing Xiaoya again, it will only increase his dependence on her, and it will be impossible to eliminate the influence.

"Madam, I told you on the way here that I just wanted to test the safety of the Marquis' Mansion. It would be terrible if some villain came in and the guards on night watch didn't find him in time. But I didn't expect that my eldest brother arrested me as a thief--" His tone was very urgent, as if he was afraid that people would not believe him.

But before he could finish his words, Lu Ling interrupted him: "You went to see Miss Xing, right? Ever since you saved her on the street last time, something has been wrong with you. Are you still thinking about her?"

She directly called out Xing Xiaoya's name. Everyone in the Jiang family was stunned and didn't even have time to stop her.

Cen Ying was the first to react and immediately replied, "Miss Xing? Second Brother, who is this?"

"Mom, it's no one, it's just a misunderstanding." Jiang Chengxiao was still explaining.

Xu Wanying couldn't help but sigh in her heart: [Lu Ling actually knows Xing Xiaoya? ]

[Of course, they are a young couple after all, if there is anything wrong with the person beside her, how could it escape her eyes? Xiaoya is so charming, Jiang Chengxiao must have been unable to resist, and he might have called her name in the middle of the night.] The system laughed evilly.

Xu Wanying couldn't help but sneered: [Calling his soul? He doesn't look like a long-lived person. With his love affair with Xing Xiaoya, he should be even more short-lived, right? ]

[What's wrong with being short-lived? In a limited life, it's great to embrace a true love, just like fireworks, short-lived but brilliant. The poem says: Life is precious, but love is even more precious! You, a woman who has no feelings or love, don't understand this at all!] The system immediately shouted.

Xu Wanying disagreed: [Why didn't you mention the last line of this poem, If it's for freedom, both can be abandoned. Jiang Chengxiao has lost even a little freedom for so-called true love. What is there to praise? ]

The system immediately asked: [Why is he not free? He wanted to go find Xing Xiaoya in the middle of the night, so he was free. But the Jiang family members stopped him and didn't give him freedom! ]

[Heh, he can't even control who his body reacts to, and you're talking to me about freedom? Okay, I don't want to argue with you. He won't live long anyway, so I'll just watch him die for true love! ]
