After Luo Xicheng left the new house, he returned to the study to listen to Qi Ming's report on the accounts reported by various places and check the situation. Although there are discrepancies between the accounts of various places and the general ledger, they are still within the controllable range, Luo Xicheng listened and asked Qi Ming some things about the imperial court's salt and iron business and the loss-making shops in southern Xinjiang.

Qi Ming analyzed the situation of the store and the movements of the imperial court with Luo Xicheng, and at the same time observed his master's absent-minded appearance. Luo Xicheng found that Qi Ming was talking intermittently, so he raised his head and stared at Qi Ming, Qi Ming couldn't help but shudder when he saw the old man's warning eyes like he was about to tear people apart, and he only dared to say business and didn't dare to get distracted.

Luo Xicheng finished the accounts and the alliance with the Baili family, and went to a few shops to inspect. After a busy day, Luo Xicheng, who was full of exhaustion, fell on the couch in the study and closed his eyes to recuperate. As soon as Luo Xicheng closed his eyes, Ding Ning bowed his head and smiled lightly at him in his mind, and the slight smile in his mind that bloomed in the sea of flowers made Luo Xicheng feel that he suddenly had energy, and he felt that he could still check ten stores now.

For a while, Luo Xicheng couldn't sleep, thinking that it would be better to go for a walk before dinner, Luo Xicheng went to the yard for a walk, and Meng Li followed closely behind, if Luo Xicheng didn't pay attention to step back half a foot, he could step on him. Luo Xicheng really paused suddenly, Meng Li, who had been following him in a daze, suddenly bumped into Luo Xicheng's back, and immediately took two steps back after waking up for half a minute. Luo Xicheng turned around and glared at Meng Li, who lowered his head timidly and took another step back.

Luo Xicheng turned his head to look at the wedding room not far in front of him, and secretly wondered why he walked and walked here. He wanted to turn around and go to the study, but his heart and his footsteps couldn't stop walking in the direction of the wedding room.

Luo Xicheng entered the courtyard of the wedding room, the courtyard was silent, Luo Xicheng wondered, this is about to be dinner, how could it be that no one was busy before and after, but it was quiet. Luo Xicheng asked Meng Li to wait outside the house, and went into the house to see what was going on.

As soon as he walked into the door, Luo Xicheng felt even more strange, not a single candlestick in the house was lit, the night gradually rose, and the room was quiet and dark. Luo Xicheng couldn't help but be curious, and walked in the direction of the bed again. When he arrived at the bedside, Luo Xicheng saw Ding Ning who was sleeping soundly. This was the first time Luo Xicheng saw Ding Ning asleep, as quiet as when she was awake, breathing softly. Luo Xicheng actually had a trace of curiosity in his heart, he still remembered the scene when Ding Ning slept next to him motionless all night on the wedding night, and now he actually wanted to stay quietly by Ding Ning's side to see if Ding Ning would turn over and move.

For such a boring thing, Luo Xicheng has some contempt for his current curiosity in his heart, but he can't help but explore the truth of this boring thing. Luo Xicheng walked out of the door lightly and told Meng Li that he would have dinner here tonight, after Meng Li left, Luo Xicheng walked lightly to Ding Ning's bedside, sat on the square stool, quietly leaned against the bed rail, closed the closing, and quietly accompanied Ding Ning. It may be that Luo Xicheng's own heart was quiet all of a sudden, originally he wanted to listen to whether Ding Ning would move here, but now he is also asleep.

Luo Xicheng gradually fell asleep, and the sound of breathing became heavier. Ding Ning, who was already easy to wake up, was half-asleep and half-awake and faintly heard a series of heavy breathing, Ding Ning opened his eyes and saw Luo Xicheng sitting on the edge of the bed and falling asleep against the bedrail. She didn't understand if Luo Xicheng wanted to sleep but found that he had occupied the bed, or if Luo Xicheng was waiting for her to wake up and fall asleep.

After all, he slept against the bed rail, Luo Xicheng tilted slightly, and his head hung down towards the bed, Ding Ning was afraid that Luo Xicheng would hurt his head and hurriedly stepped forward to help Luo Xicheng, but Luo Xicheng felt that his head was hanging heavily and woke up. Luo Xicheng actually fell into Ding Ning's arms like this, and looked at Ding Ning with four eyes. The two of them were stunned at this time, Ding Ning didn't continue to let Luo Xicheng lie in his arms at this time, nor did he push Luo Xicheng away. Luo Xicheng fell into a soft and faint fragrance, and suddenly his blood surged, and he didn't know what he should do.

Fortunately, someone pushed the door in at this time, although the sound of pushing the door was very soft, and the footsteps were also very soft, but for the already silent room, such a sound was enough to make waves. Ding Ning and Luo Xicheng immediately pushed each other away, fortunately, Ding Ning didn't have a wide roof when she slept, so she was not so embarrassed at the moment, she quickly combed her hair with her hands and got up from the bed, and Luo Xicheng also quickly stood up.

The person who pushed the door into the house was not in a hurry to enter the inner room to call Ding Ning, but first lit the candles in the outer room to make the room brighter, and then went out again. Ding Ning is different, Luo Xicheng is also different, but the two did not express this doubt.

"Madame, have you had dinner?" Luo Xicheng was the first to break the silence in the house.

"Never." Ding Ning replied.

"I told Meng Li that I would have dinner here tonight, okay?" This is the first time that Luo Xicheng has invited Ding Ning to do something together so gently and without threat.

Ding Ning nodded in agreement, and felt that his current appearance was rude, so he added:

"It's good for Xicheng to go out first, I'll come out with my hair tied in a bun."

Luo Xicheng walked out of the inner room and sat down at the round table in the outer room. Dishes have already begun to be placed on the table. Ding Ning simply tied his hair in a bun and walked out, and it happened that Huanxi also walked in with a dish at this time. Maybe the person in front of him is really exactly the same as his own lady, and when he saw Ding Ning, he smiled and said:

"Madame, come and sit down, there is also a soup, Cuilan will bring it immediately."

The corners of Ding Ning's mouth also rose when he saw the happy appearance, Ding Ning sat down with a smile, Cuilan hurriedly walked into the house with the soup, and saw that Ding Ning and Luo Xicheng were sitting at the dining table, so he put a bowl of soup on the table, and picked up the bowl and gave Ding Ning and Luo Xicheng a bowl each. Meng Li walked in and was secretly happy on the side.

It turned out that Meng Li left the wedding room and went to the kitchen, where he met Cuilan and Huanxi who were taking the meal. Meng Li didn't know when he began to secretly like Cuilan, in order to be able to chat with Cuilan for a while, he spread Huanxi away, and asked Huanxi to go back to the wedding room first to prepare the table and light the candles, while he pestered Cuilan to chat in the kitchen. Cuilan knew that Luo Xicheng was in the marriage room, and she began to worry in her heart, afraid that Luo Xicheng would hurt Ding Ning when no one called Ding Ning, and she just wanted to go back to the marriage room as soon as possible.

Ding Ning was having dinner with Luo Xicheng while not having a settled heart, if Luo Xicheng woke her up as soon as he came in today and told her what was the matter with coming to her, maybe Ding Ning was not so flustered now; But Luo Xicheng entered the house today and neither woke her up when she was asleep, nor did he tell her what she needed to do when she woke up.

"Have you ever thought about the name of this garden?" Luo Xicheng looked relaxed and asked while eating.

"Huh?!" Ding Ning didn't understand what Luo Xicheng meant.

"Ah what? Is this always called the wedding room? This is where I lived, and I didn't bother to choose a name, so it never had a name, and now that you're married, give it a name. Luo Xicheng swallowed the dish and Ding Ning said.

"Marry in? I got married, but isn't it fake? I named this place, and in the future, if the housewife knows about it, she won't tear me to pieces? Is he pushing me into the fire pit? Ding Ning secretly slandered himself, but he didn't dare to speak.

Luo Xicheng saw that Ding Ning didn't respond for a long time, and then asked:

"What? No way? ”

"No, it's not. It's just that I ......" Before Ding Ning's words could be spoken, Luo Xicheng saw Ding Ning's embarrassed look. In Luo Xicheng's opinion, Ding Ning may be shy and embarrassed, Luo Xicheng hurriedly relieved the siege and said:

"It's okay, you think about it slowly, and tell me when you're ready."

Luo Xicheng has always been a person who makes full use of his time, and he has a decision that will surprise everyone when he eats. Luo Xicheng didn't want him to be so strange to Ding Ning anymore, like a wall, so after thinking deeply, he said:

"I'm staying here tonight."

As soon as the words came out, Ding Ning had just swallowed half of the rice when he was stuck by a gasp of cold air, Ding Ning was so choked that he squirted out the rice without saying anything, his face was blushing, and tears were coughed up.

Seeing this scene, Luo Xicheng put down his dishes and chopsticks in a panic, and hurriedly patted Ding Ning on the back while calling Cuilan Dao:

"Go and call Lummer over."

Ding Ning hurriedly shook his hand to signal that he didn't need to, and took another sip of soup to moisten his throat to relieve it. Seeing that Ding Ning was relieved, Luo Xicheng also stopped Cuilan.

"It's going to be cold at night, go get a futon and put it on the bed, Cuilan go pour a glass of water, and let Mrs. moisten her throat." Luo Xicheng instructed the people in the house.

Hearing Luo Xicheng's order, Ding Ning thought that Luo Xicheng was going to sing a play with her again, so as not to say that he didn't rest at his wife's place except for the wedding night. Ding Ning was relieved when he thought so. After drinking the soup in the bowl, Ding Ning ate some more meals. Luo Xicheng was very full tonight, thinking that he would be very close to Ding Ning tonight, he felt an inexplicable sense of stability in his heart.

At night, the people in the house left one by one, and in the end, Cuilan could only leave the candle in the inner room, extinguished the fire in the outhouse alone, and walked out of the house to close the door.

"Aren't you going to rest?" Luo Xicheng looked at Ding Ning, who was still in front of the dressing mirror, and said.

"You can rest first, I'll be here in a moment." Ding Ning replied casually.

"It's not the first time you've slept with me, what's there to be afraid of?"

As soon as Luo Xicheng spoke, Ding Ning turned his head in surprise and stared at him. While staring at Luo Xicheng, Ding Ning kept thinking about every intimate contact between himself and Luo Xicheng in his mind, and the only time he shared a bed could only be the wedding night, but did she sleep in the same bed with Luo Xicheng on the wedding night? She's asleep, she doesn't know.

"I slept next to you on the wedding night, didn't you sleep peacefully all night? How? Scared now? Luo Xicheng looked at Ding Ning's puzzled eyes and asked.

"Huh?" Ding Ning continued to wonder.

Luo Xicheng couldn't wait, couldn't stand it anymore, got out of bed, walked in front of Ding Ning in a few steps, grabbed her wrist, and pulled her to the side of the bed. Seeing this, Luo Xicheng naturally sat down beside Ding Ning. He turned his head to look at Ding Ning and said:

"Sleep!"

Ding Ning's mind was a mess and she didn't understand, but she knew very clearly from Luo Xicheng's eyes that Luo Xicheng wouldn't really do anything to her, so she finally obediently climbed into the quilt to sleep, but she wrapped herself tightly in the quilt. Luo Xicheng smiled when he saw this, and at the same time got into the quilt.

It was the first time for the two of them to approach so soberly, and Ding Ning's heart was like a deer colliding with each other, and he couldn't sleep quietly at all. Luo Xicheng naturally fell asleep contentedly, but after a while, Ding Ning heard Luo Xicheng's heavy breathing sound beside him. The sound of breathing was telling Ding Ning that she could sleep with peace of mind.

A sound of even and soft breathing reached Luo Xicheng's ears, and when he opened his eyes, he saw Ding Ning, who was already asleep, and a smile appeared in the corners of his eyes. In order to let Ding Ning fall asleep peacefully, he pretended that he was asleep, but in fact, he was so close to Ding Ning, where could he sleep.

"Ning'er, I want to be closer to you." Luo Xicheng turned around and whispered to Ding Ning.

At this time, Luo Xicheng had forgotten that Ding Ning's current identity was Baili Wanting, his determination to monopolize the business between the north and the south, and that he just wanted to use Ding Ning.
