Late at night, when the secondary personality woke up, he still felt sore all over. He cursed “beast” softly, got up from the bed like a thief, tiptoed out of bed and put on his clothes.
Perhaps he couldn’t stand the woman on the bed, so he simply outlined his previously carefully painted cold and beautiful eyebrows with two strokes, quickly put on his nightgown and left the room.
Chu Ge’s martial arts skills were not high, but he was good at Qinggong. His main personality was good at medicine, and his secondary personality was good at poison. The pain in his waist made it difficult for him to perform Qinggong, and he was so angry that he kept calling her a beast.
”According to how lustful this woman is, in the future… I’m afraid it won’t be easy for him to fly over the wall after being drained away?”
”What is going on?”
When the main personality chose to get married, he said that his wife was a sickly person and might not be able to get things done at night, so he had more time. He agreed, but who knew things would turn out like this?
Is this a sickly woman? I’m afraid normal women are not as cruel as her!
His mind was now full of thoughts: Did the master personality deceive him? He wanted to marry his ideal wife, but the master was afraid that he would cause trouble, so she comforted him.
But he did inquire about it at the beginning, and it was confirmed that this person was a sick person!
What went wrong?
When he quietly went out to investigate according to the scout’s instructions and came back, the main personality began to awaken a little.
”Well, why is it so slow today?”
Secondary personality: “How dare you say that? I feel like I’m completely drained. I’m lucky I was able to follow the plan. I almost got discovered today!”
”Okay…Okay! Go back early, my wife will be worried if she can’t see me.”
The secondary personality panted heavily, looking down on him: “You only know how to call your wife master all day long. You have no shame, and it never ends!”
The protagonist was speechless. He was indeed a little too attached to his wife. He didn’t have any special feelings for her when they first got married. It’s only been a few days, so why does he like her so much?
Maybe because he was married, he didn’t have any defenses against her? Besides, his wife doted on him so much that any man would fall for her.
”If your wife doesn’t love you, you naturally don’t know how good she is.”
The secondary personality rolled his eyes in the night, “I don’t need her to feel any pain, don’t compare me to you!”
The main personality finally found a reason to contradict the other person, “Since it is not necessary, can you please stop interrupting when the wife is doing it at night?”
Secondary personality: “You! Haha… you have become more capable!”
Main personality: “Hmph, it’s good that you know…”
When Chu Ge returned to the bedroom, it was about three in the morning. This was the time when Jiang Ran slept the most soundly. He walked lightly, changed his clothes quickly, and walked towards the bed step by step.
A hand lifted the bed curtain and gently climbed onto the bed. Just as he was about to breathe a sigh of relief, his waist was embraced. He held his breath and his mind went blank for a moment.
”Where have you been? You’re so cold?”
Chu Ge: “Get up…it’s night.”
Jiang Ran naturally knew where this person had gone. She did not ask further, but instead took him into her arms and said, “You are too cold. Let me warm you up.”
Seeing that she didn’t ask, Chu Ge breathed a sigh of relief and at the same time felt a little guilty. His wife trusted him so much, but he was lying…
Nestled in the warm embrace, he felt so guilty that he almost cried. He thought that tonight would be another sleepless night, but he fell asleep in a short while.
When I woke up the next day, I was still upset about my heartlessness. How could he be like that?
In order to make up for it, he had to find an excuse as soon as possible to get rid of Changfeng, whom his wife hated.
They sent the people away swiftly, and Changfeng took the opportunity to run to Zhilan Courtyard to complain, saying that the master-husband was jealous. It was obvious that the young lady had some feelings for him before, but the master-husband found out and sent him away. Not only did he have to do more work now, but he also had trouble seeing the young lady.
He had been serving the young lady for four years. Just when he had some hope, it was ruthlessly interrupted. How could he tolerate this?
Changfeng cried pitifully, almost hugging the calf of the biggest manager of the backyard.
The second husband Wang Jing twisted his Buddhist beads and said, “How can I make a decision for you? He is the legitimate husband of the legitimate daughter’s courtyard. What can I do to deal with a servant? Besides, it’s not that I killed you, I just changed your job. You might as well find a way to find a young lady instead of asking me for help.”
Changfeng did not get any support and left Zhilan Courtyard with a sad face. His second wife Wang Jing rubbed his forehead and said, “You useless piece of shit. You have been here for four years and still can’t accomplish anything. I have already shown you extra kindness by not replacing you. You even wanted me to make a difference.”
He couldn’t help but have a headache. Should he have arranged a few experienced men to go to the legitimate daughter’s courtyard? These young men clearly wanted to be favored by the ladies and they insisted on pretending to be chaste husbands, but in the end, none of them succeeded!
”Ran’er used to come to Zhilan Court whenever she had time, but now… she doesn’t even want to come to pay her respects.”
A month passed peacefully, and Chu Ge had established himself firmly in the mansion. Jiang Ran specially asked for some housekeeper power for him. In addition to going to the clinic during the day, his tasks became heavier.
Normally, one month after marriage, the couple would start sleeping in separate rooms. The husband would have his own yard and would not need to live with his wife every day. However, Jiang Ran would not let him leave at all. She was like a large dog and was extremely clingy.
Chu Ge felt like he was living in a dream over the past month. He thought that after marriage they would just be respectful to each other, but he never expected that he would be loved so much. When he saw the servants inadvertently revealing envy or jealousy in their eyes, his heart felt as sweet as honey.
While dealing with the account books, I couldn’t help but wonder what my wife was doing.
Ah Xin trotted over to him and said in a voice that only two people could hear: “Sir, today I saw the lady chatting happily with a man outside. The man was tall and handsome, with a sword on his waist. He looked very wild and was not a good person!”
Chu Ge was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously retorted: “My wife never told me about it. Maybe that person is just a friend…”
Ah Xin: “I was far away and couldn’t see clearly, but the madam didn’t have such thoughts. Some men just wanted to do it! The more gentle a lady from aristocratic family is, the easier it is for her to be seduced by a wild and unruly man!”
Chu Ge continued to look at the account book, but couldn’t bear to read any further: “Where did you learn all this experience from? Let’s… wait a little longer…”
Ah Xin said anxiously, “My dear, how can you wait? You should at least find out the other party’s strengths and weaknesses and test the lady’s attitude! If an arrogant and domineering minister[1]refer to concubine here, or to be precise to show the noble status of someone comes, life will be difficult.”
Ah Xin has seen his young master’s life over the past month, and it couldn’t be more perfect with their love and affection. It’s not that he doesn’t trust Jiang Ran, but he doesn’t trust those peacock-spreading men out there. Everyone knows that these men appear chaste, but once they meet a good lady, they have many ways to seduce her.
How could his young master, who seemed to be indifferent to worldly affairs, possibly be able to defeat others?
Chu Ge’s good mood was completely gone, and a strong sense of jealousy rose from the bottom of his heart.
”I’m a little irritated now, let me think about it first…”
Ah Xin nodded and left. He finished the work at hand and secretly went to find out the man’s background.
Jiang Ran was outside and had no idea that her meeting with Jiang Fangyang had been discovered.
Jiang Fangyang now trusts her very much. After all, she has put in a lot of effort and is already halfway to success.
She asked, “How is Mr. Jiang’s life in the Ministry of Justice?”
Jiang Fangyang’s eyes sparkled as he looked at the lady in front of him who made his heart beat. She was elegantly spoken and gentle in temperament. He had originally aspired to be an official. Although most officials are women nowadays, men are not completely unable to become officials, but their numbers are few. The Ministry of Justice is a lucrative job but it is also easy to offend people.
Although he was from a noble family, his family’s resources did not favor him. They only gave him money but not the resources to become an official.
Originally, he needed some luck to have the opportunity to get a job, but he didn’t expect that the woman in front of him would see his situation and help recommend him.
To become an official one had to pass the imperial examination or be recommended by aristocratic families. Now he had finally got a satisfactory job. Although the position was not high, as long as he was given opportunities, he would slowly climb up.
”Although there are many trivial matters, my life is fulfilling. Thank you for your help. I will do my best to help you in any way you can.”
Jiang Ran smiled and didn’t say anything about helping. Instead, she chatted casually, “It’s because you have talent that the higher-ups recognized you. Unlike me, who has poor health and can only stay at home and do nothing.”
”My lady, you are too modest. I see that although you are a little weak on weekdays, you seem to be in good health?”
Jiang Ran smiled, as if she didn’t take her health seriously: “No, no, sir, you don’t know that I have a heart disease. I can only cultivate my body and mind and live a retirement life in advance.”
She lowered her head and glanced at the teacup in front of her. The rising white mist cast a filter on her. It was hard to see her expression when she lowered her eyes. She sighed softly as she spoke, and her tone was slightly more relaxed than before: “Maybe God can’t bear my hard work and doesn’t let me worry and think freely like ordinary people. Once I think too much, my chest hurts and I have difficulty breathing. It seems to remind me that there are many troubles in the world and I should stay out of other people’s business!”
Jiang Fangyang was not as relaxed as she was when he heard this. He secretly showed a look of heartache and pity in his eyes, “My lady really deserves to live a life without worries.”
Seeing that the conversation was almost over, Jiang Ran revealed some of the information compiled by the system, “Young Master has just taken office. If there is a good case that can make your political achievements look better, I happen to know a little bit about it…”
Through the results of the review, she picked out one of Chu Ge’s enemies, “There are some problems with this person. If you pay attention to him, you will definitely gain something.”
Jiang Fangyang took a sip of tea to hide his slight loss of composure: She obviously shouldn’t be worried, but she still helped me think about taking office.
It was as if a ray of light shone freely in his heart, dispelling the boring and dull life he had lived in the past few years.
I couldn’t help but think too much: the other party is dressed luxuriously, which shows that she is very much loved at home and has a high status. Judging from the fact that she helped to submit the recommendation letter, she has a wide and sophisticated network of contacts. Her behavior is not that of a businessman, but her family background is rich and powerful. There is no shortage of men who love such a noble lady, even if she has a heart disease.
There didn’t seem to be anything about him that was worth her attention. Was it possible that she liked him a little bit?
