Shen Ji paused, his cheeks slightly red, and he looked sideways at Wen Mo who was standing aside.

Wen Mo couldn't tell what the gentleman meant, and was just grinning at the two of them with his big teeth.

Seeing that he had no vision, Shen Ji frowned and winked at him: Why don't you leave?

Wen Mo blinked and looked confused: Where are you going?

Shen Ji pursed his thin lips, and there was a trace of anger in his eyes: Didn't you see that I had something serious to do? Get out of here!

Wen Mo trembled, then suddenly came to his senses, and ran out quickly, taking away Bai Ji who came to serve tea, "Quickly leave, don't let anyone else go in there!"

"Why?" Bai Ji looked confused and asked, "Master Shen's tea hasn't been delivered yet."

"Don't give it away. My husband is allergic to tea now." Wen Mo waved his hand and said quickly, "He gets annoyed when he sees tea now. Please leave quickly."

It was white and foggy, but he was still very obedient and did not enter the house.

There were only two people left in the room, and Shen Ji's expression became warmer. He lifted up his long sleeves, revealing his strong forearms with obvious bruises and a few dried blood marks on them.

Fang Xu squeezed his arm, lowered his eyebrows, dipped a handkerchief in some warm water, and carefully wiped the blood marks.

Seeing how serious she was, Shen Ji's eyes fell on her face and he lost his mind for a moment.

"Does it hurt?"

Fang Xu's sudden voice pulled Shen Ji back from his thoughts.

Shen Ji was silent for a long time and said softly, "It hurts."

Fang Xu's fingertips shrank, his heart trembled, and he said softly, "I thought you would say it didn't hurt."

Shen Ji pursed his lips, "The wound does not hurt that much, but I want to make Madam feel distressed."

Fang Xu suddenly raised his head and met his gaze. After a moment, he found his voice, "Where did you learn these words?"

Shen Ji's face was sincere and his tone was gentle, "I just want Madam to notice my subtlety."

Fang Xu laughed and kept applying medicine on his hands, "You are so sincere."

"Madam... I have moved out and no longer live in the Shen family." Shen Ji chuckled, with turbulent emotions in his eyes, "I bought a new house in Xicheng, just a cup of tea away from the Marquis' Mansion."

Fang Xu was confused and frowned, "Why did you move out suddenly? But you had a conflict with your family?"

Shen Ji shook his head, his eyes brightening, "I've wanted to move out for a long time. The one who is near the water first gets the moon. I've always kept this in mind."

Fang Xu's eyes were uncertain, he frowned and asked, "Why are you so straightforward today?"

"The window paper between me and my wife has been pierced, why do I need to hide my feelings?" Shen Ji looked at her and smiled softly, "I was afraid that my wife would disappear, so I wanted to hurry up."

"Madam, you might as well tell me directly what I need to do to be worthy of standing by your side."

Fang Xu was stunned for a long time, a flash of hesitation flashed in his eyes, and he asked himself carefully.

During these days without seeing Shen Ji, did she feel any nostalgia in her heart?

Probably yes.

She has suffered from severe insomnia these days. No matter how much she tosses and turns, she still has trouble sleeping, has no appetite, and cannot arouse any interest in her favorite food when placed in front of her.

After seeing his own heart clearly, Fang Xu suddenly felt that everything in front of him suddenly became clear, and his eyes looking at Shen Ji were filled with starlight.

"The person next to me cannot have an official position lower than that of the Marquis."

Shen Ji was startled, "That's it?"

Fang Xu laughed and said, "That's all." Shen Jida stared at her steadily. After a while, he came back to his senses and said seriously, "Okay."

Fang Xu still didn't know what kind of turmoil his words would cause in the court. The informants under Shen Ji had smoothed the soles of their shoes, just to fulfill their master's wish.

Yunyuan

Xie Wanzhou sat alone in front of the bronze mirror, looking at the girl's appearance in the mirror, unable to regain consciousness for a long time.

"Miss..." Zhutao looked worried and cautiously came closer, "Don't do this. I feel very distressed when I see you."

"Why doesn't he come?" Xie Wanzhou couldn't understand. The makeup on his face had not yet been washed off. "Why didn't he show up when he obviously obliged me?"

"Master Lian... he may have been delayed for something." Zhu Tao supported Xie Wanzhou's body, her eyes full of love.

"I haven't seen him for half a month," Xie Wanzhou lowered his eyes and murmured in a low voice, "That's all..."

Zhutao knew that she was sad, and just as she was about to open her mouth to comfort her, she heard her mother-in-law's voice coming from outside the yard.

"Miss, Mr. Lian sent a message asking you to go to the front door of the mansion."

Hearing this, Xie Wanzhou's expression changed. After thinking for a moment, he got up.

Xie Wanzhou walked a little longer, looking a little anxious. Just as he walked to the door, his eyes were suddenly flashed by the fire in front of him.

It was empty outside. I don't know when a flower shed was set up. A figure shuttled through the shed. It was Lian Yan who had disappeared for several days.

Lian Yan held a willow wooden spoon, scooped out the boiling molten iron, and ran under the flower shed. He hit the spoon hard with the wooden stick in his hand, and the molten iron turned into iron wire and exploded in the air.

In an instant, the fireworks illuminated Yongcheng Houfu and reflected in the girl's eyes.

Lian Yan was wearing thin clothes and could move forward and retreat freely in the firelight. There was an uninhibited smile on his handsome face, announcing his thoughts in a high-profile manner.

Xie Wanzhou was stunned for a moment, and the only thing in his sight was the young man moving through the firelight.

When she was in a daze, a small piece of iron hit her shoulder. The force was not strong, but it was enough to bring her back to consciousness.

Looking at the iron block at his feet, Zhutao exclaimed with joy, "Ah, miss, this is a blessing that has fallen on you!"

Xie Wanzhou looked relaxed, bent down to pick up the small piece of iron on the ground, and moved his eyes to Lian Yan again.

The sparks fell, Lian Yan stood still, sweat slid down his face, and breathed lightly, "Wanzhou, happy birthday."

Xie Wanzhou's eyes sparkled with tears and she asked softly, "I haven't shown up for more than half a month. Are you just going to learn this?"

"More than that." Lian Yan grinned with a hearty smile, "In the past few days since I left the capital, I found a lot of treasures and brought them back to you as a birthday gift."

After saying this, Yunting brought a black horse with two large packages hanging on the saddle, which was bulging.

"This...are these all birthday gifts for me?" Xie Wanzhou was stunned for a moment and asked in a low voice.

"Fifteen years have passed since you came into this world, and I have found fifteen gifts to give to you before." Lian Yan stood up straight, a chuckle overflowing from his mouth, "I know the hardships you have experienced in the past, and I will continue to do so." After that, there is only sweetness.”

"Your future is bright not because I am by your side. You are like a pearl covered in dust. It has been dim for many years. Now you are shining brightly, all because of your own talents."

Lian Yan chuckled, staring at her with a pair of peach blossom eyes, "Our Wanzhou is the most powerful girl in the world."

Xie Wanzhou's eyes were red, and tears fell down his cheeks like broken beads.

Looking at his face, Xie Wanzhou boldly followed his heart and said, "Lian Yan, are you willing to marry me?"

Lian Yan was startled, then stopped laughing, "My heart is longing for it."
