Chapter Seventy-Six: Confusion

When Wen Ye woke up, he saw Mo Yan resting with his eyes closed on the edge of the bed, and saw his white hair casually draped over his shoulders, his clothes slightly wrinkled and leaning on the bed rail, it seemed that he was guarding her all night. Wen Ye turned over and lay on the bed, his arms folded in front of him, tilting his head and staring at Mo Yan. Mo Yan seemed to feel Wen Ye's gaze, his long eyelashes trembled slightly, as if he was about to wake up and seemed to be sleeping all along.

"Is it pretty?"

Wen Ye was taken aback by Mo Yan's sudden question, then glared at him, and said angrily, "You did it on purpose!"

Mo Yan opened his eyes and raised his eyebrows, he did wake up a long time ago, but he didn't deliberately pretend to be asleep to tease her, he just closed his eyes and thought about things.

"How much do you remember last night?"

Wen Ye vaguely remembered last night's incident, she would go crazy when she was drunk but she wouldn't forget everything, she used to think that her wine was pretty good like this, but now she wished she had forgotten everything last night.

Before Wen Ye could answer, Mo Yan leaned over and stroked her cheek, and said distressedly, "Don't drink in the future."

Wen Ye was angry in his heart, and misinterpreted his concern into domineering possession, pulling the quilt and turning around to show it. The corners of Mo Yan's mouth curled, and she was a little backbone today, not as coquettish and clingy as a kitten in the past.

"Yesterday it was my fault, tomorrow I will go out, you can live in the Hou Mansion these days, and wait for me to come back and take you to Jingshan to hunt."

Mo Yan's voice was extremely gentle, and Wen Ye's anger was mostly gone, but he didn't want to forgive him so easily. Mo Yan raised his hand to cover the quilt for her, Wen Ye closed his eyes and simply ignored him. Mo Yan silently accompanied her without a temper, until Manager Li came and said that Cheng Nuanxin was here. Mo Yan frowned and was a little annoyed, feeling that Cheng Nuanxin had never been as annoying as he was now.

"Brother Cheng is really at the right time, what's the matter?"

Mo Yan took a sip of tea, the corners of his mouth were slightly hooked, Cheng Nuanxin's heart tightened when he saw this, it seemed that he had come at an inopportune time.

"Brother Mo, excuse me."

Cheng Nuanxin put down the teacup in his hand, ready to make a long story short, and directly stated the purpose of his arrival today.

"I heard that Miss Wang Si and General Xue Xiao are going to get married, but is it true?"

"I don't know."

Mo Yan rubbed his eyebrows impatiently, Cheng Nuanxin really lifted him, now he himself is difficult to protect, but he is not in the mood to care about other people's relatives. He suddenly missed the days when Qingtian was in the mansion, at least he wouldn't be as upset as he was now, and his concern made Wen Ye angry, and he didn't even pay attention to him now.

"Sister-in-law?"

Cheng Nuanxin doesn't seem to have any vision today, and the things that can make Mo Yan difficult must be related to Wen Ye. Mo Yan glanced at Cheng Nuanxin, and replied angrily: "She was drunk yesterday and hasn't gotten up yet."

Cheng Nuanxin pursed his lips and shook his head, stretched out the folding fan in his hand and shook it slowly, it seems that the two of them had a quarrel, no wonder he seemed extremely irritable today, it turned out to be a quarrel, although he didn't know much about how to get along with husband and wife, but since he knew about it, he always had to persuade a few words.

"Since Brother Mo married his wife, he has become a lot more impatient, especially when it comes to his sister-in-law, since the two have become relatives, they must trust each other, and besides, Mrs. Mo is actually an ordinary woman, don't care about things, it's good to care about it."

"Mouthy, send-off."

Mo Yan frowned and sighed, this is what he persuaded Qingtian, but he didn't expect that he was also planted in this matter, he was really a fan of the authorities, and the bystanders were clear.

"Cheng Gongzi, please."

The Ming guard came in through the door, bowing his head and making a gesture of please. Cheng Nuanxin reluctantly shook the folding fan and followed him out of the East Courtyard, the more he thought about it along the way, the more angry he became, he originally came to Mrs. Wen and Miss Wanzhao to ask about the relatives of the fourth lady, I heard that the three of them had a good personal relationship, and the two of them must know something.

"He's really cloudy and sunny today, so he's driving people away? Who else can I ask about her and Xue Xingyi......

Cheng Nuanxin muttered sullenly, and the Ming guard understood that he really had a way to do this.

"Cheng Gongzi, don't worry, the little marquis has been lacking in skills these days, but about the fourth miss of the Wang family, Cheng Gongzi can ask Sister Xiaochun. This time, she estimated that she was having dinner in the side hall of the South Courtyard, and she said this morning that she wanted to find an opportunity to talk to you about Wang Si

Miss's business."

"Thank you, Brother Ming, for taking you to dinner another day!"

Cheng Nuanxin hurriedly bowed, he was really grateful, fortunately, his popularity in the Hou Mansion and the Wen family was not bad, and Mo Yan was really his lucky star.

In the side hall of the west courtyard, Xiaochun packed up the dishes and chopsticks and went to the backyard, and the Ming guards hurriedly ran over when they saw this, greeted them diligently, and took the dishes in their hands.

"Ming'er is sensible, it seems that she has learned a lot from the little marquis!"

Xiaochun said jokingly, and raised her head to meet Cheng Nuanxin's eyes, which made her panic unexpectedly.

"Miss Xiaochun."

Cheng Nuanxin took the folding fan in her hand and arched her hand, Xiaochun smiled and came back to her senses, she was thinking about Wang Wan'er last night when she was eating, and now Cheng Nuanxin came over, which really surprised her.

"Why is Cheng Gongzi here today?"

Cheng Nuanxin scratched the back of his head, although he followed the Ming guards all the time, he was still embarrassed to speak. He coughed unnaturally, but still didn't say anything. Xiaochun always had a smile on his face, and waited patiently for him to calm down before he spoke, "Cheng Gongzi is here to inquire about Miss Wang Si today?"

"Miss Xiaochun is really a beautiful orchid, and she is abrupt."

Cheng Nuanxin had only met with Wanzhao before, but it was the first time he had spoken to Xiaochun, and he felt that she was warm and sincere, and she was a frank and honest child.

"It's nothing, but the news of Cheng Gongzi is really well-informed, you know about last night's events this morning, and Miss Wang Si is really heartwarming to have you in mind."

Xiaochun pursed her lips and sat on the bamboo chair, and suddenly felt that Wang Wan'er was really lucky, and the two men she met were very good, unlike her, no one cared for and no one loved her.

Cheng Nuanxin naturally didn't know the twists and turns in Chun's heart, and he couldn't understand Xiaochun's point, he was confused now, and hurriedly asked, "Last night? Are they together? Are they ready to get married?"

Xiaochun shook her head, she didn't know about the marriage between the two, but since Nuan Xin didn't know about last night, it showed that he was not so extreme about Wang Wan'er, and it seemed that he was too worried.

"It turned out that I misunderstood, they did go to the Drunken Immortal Building together yesterday, but Miss and Wanzhao, and I were all present. I don't know about their relatives, but I just think that General Xue Xiao is attentive to Miss Wang Si. Cheng Gongzi can rest assured, as for the matter of getting married......

"Sister Xiaochun, there is a Miss Wang here, Sister Wanzhao will let you go too."

A guard in the courtyard interrupted the conversation between the two with a fist in his fist.

"I see."

Xiaochun beckoned the guards to step back, raised his eyes and looked at Cheng Nuanxin, a trace of worry flashed in his eyes, and he said lightly, "Is Cheng Gongzi coming?"

Cheng Nuanxin nodded happily, Xiaochun's words were exactly what he wanted, but it was rude to do so, wouldn't it hurt her if she was to blame......

"It's okay, the three of us met when we were young, she won't turn her face with me, it's better for you to ask her personally about some things."

Cheng Nuanxin gave up his hand again, since Xiaochun said so, he naturally couldn't refuse.

"Miss Lao Xiaochun is leading the way."

Xiaochun nodded and strode forward, she didn't know if Wang Wan'er could be angry, but the two would only let go when they met, she didn't want Cheng Nuanxin to be too persistent and hurt herself.

In the main hall of the West Courtyard, Wanzhao and Wang Wan'er laughed and talked about last night's drunkenness, and Wang Wan'er suddenly looked like a bitter gourd face. Seeing her dodging eyes, Wanzhao knew that something must have happened, and secretly blamed Xiaochun in her heart.

"Did Xue Xingyi bully you last night?"

Wang Wan'er hurriedly shook her head and denied it, she didn't drink much yesterday, so it wouldn't be bullied, but there was something more unacceptable.

"No, he wanted to marry me, and I refused......

The autumn rain was pouring down, falling on the eaves of the Prime Minister's Mansion to form a curtain of water, Xue Xingyi stared at the water curtain for a long time, and Wang Xuan'er, who was sleeping on his shoulder, moved slightly.

"Fourth Miss, the palace has arrived."

Wang Wan'er rubbed her eyes and sat up, remembering the matter of drinking in the Drunken Immortal Building today, it seems that she has not drunk for a long time, and her alcohol consumption has decreased a lot, and she actually fell asleep directly in the carriage, which is really rude.

"Thank you, Master Xue, for sending me home."

"No, I'd be happy to trouble you."

Xue Xingyi smiled and straightened his collar, there was obviously a dark mark on his shoulder, Wang Wan'er subconsciously wiped the corners of his mouth, it was not saliva that was wet and sticky, and he was rude and out of shape in front of him today.

"Sorry for soiling your clothes."

Wang Wan'er pulled out the silk handkerchief in her sleeve and reached out to wipe him, but Xue Xingyi dodged back and took the silk handkerchief in his hand.

"I'll just do it myself."

Wang Wan'er immediately withdrew her hand and smiled embarrassedly, she had always acted informally, and she had forgotten whether men and women were intimate or not.

"I don't know why I was invited here today?"

"I do have something to say to Miss Four, but it's not appropriate for you to get drunk right now......

Xue Xingyi leaned forward and wanted to get out of the carriage, but Wang Wan'er was a little impatient when she saw him twisting like this.

"What the hell are you talking so much, if you don't say that I won't come out with you in the future."

"No, I just wanted to ask you...... You and my family, when is the fourth lady going to get married?"

Xue Xingyi lowered his head and stopped saying nothing after speaking, waiting for her answer.

"Married?"

Wang Wan'er's mind was clouded, and she was confused for a while, she never thought of really getting married, her two family affairs were decided by her father, but no one asked her what she thought.

"I don't want to yet, you know, I ...... before."

Wang Wan'er didn't know what she said, Xue Xingyi saw that she was incoherent and seemed to be more nervous than herself, which made him calm down a lot.

"I'll let you in."

The two got out of the carriage one after the other, and Wang Wan'er hesitated, but still stopped.

"No need, it will be misunderstood when people see it, I'm afraid it's not good for Xue Gongzi's reputation."

Xue Xingyi smiled dumbly, was she rejecting herself by saying this? Fang Cai did not shy away from helping her wipe her clothes, this time she looked like she was rejecting people thousands of miles away, and it inevitably became too fast.

"Are you laughing at me? Laugh at me for changing my face too quickly, don't you?"

Xue Xingyi clenched the scabbard in his hand, and for a while he didn't know how to explain it, so he could only deny it briefly.

"I...... I didn't."
