Chapter 48: Let's experience the life of divorce

"It took you so long to come. I thought I, as your father, couldn't invite you anymore."

As soon as I stepped into the side hall, Master Xiao's sarcastic voice rang out.

Xiao Yan paused and almost wanted to turn around and leave to meet the other party's request.

But in the end he didn't leave, but the smile on his face became brighter:
"Dad, you can't say that. You know your son is newly married. If you disturb the couple's love, you will go to hell~"

"You little bastard, what are you talking about in broad daylight..."

Master Xiao paused his scolding and looked at Xiao Yan with a strange expression.

Xiao Yan just smiled and didn't say anything at first, until he realized that Master Xiao was like an idiot, staring at his left face non-stop. He felt angry, but the smile on his face remained unchanged:

"Dad, what's wrong? Did you suddenly notice your son's beauty and can't take your eyes off him?"

Master Xiao almost choked with anger. He should have strangled the little beast to death when he was born to prevent him from making him angry all day long!
"You're talking nonsense! Don't you ever look at yourself before you go out?"

Xiao Yan ignored him, and in the eyes of Master Xiao who was about to be pissed off, he directly picked a chair and sat down, his attitude casual and wanton:
"What's so good about this? Isn't this young master always so handsome and elegant?"

Master Xiao: Bah! You shameless bastard!
"Someone, bring him a mirror!"

Master Xiao suppressed his anger and spoke, but the more he saw the other party's careless look, the angrier he became:

"Look at what you are like now! You don't know how to sit or stand properly. Why don't you learn from your brother?"

Xiao Yan ate the fruit brought by the servants without even raising his head, with the demeanor of a dandy boy:
"Oh, then you ask him to come out and I'll learn from him."

Master Xiao: "Is that what I'm talking about? Do you really want to piss me off to death?"

"How could that be possible! I am a filial son. If I piss you off to death, wouldn't I be left without a father? So don't worry, I definitely won't piss you off to death."

Master Xiao: Someone come here, where are the family rules? He is really going to be mad to death!
"Master."

The servant came over with a bronze mirror and knelt down in front of Xiao Yan to serve him.

The young man raised his eyes casually and saw an obvious... slap mark on the face of the handsome young man in the mirror.

Xiao Yan was silent.

I came out so quickly that I forgot about this place.

You wouldn’t expect his wife to be so strong.

As he thought about it, he couldn't help but rub the finger marks with his fingers.

But then again, he is the first person to make his fairy-like wife so angry that she starts hitting people, right?
Master Xiao originally wanted Xiao Yan to reflect on himself, but who would have thought that he did not feel ashamed, but instead just admired himself in the mirror.

He was almost pissed off to death.

"Okay, take the mirror away!" He then yelled at Xiao Yan, "What bad things have you done again, you bastard? What's with the marks on your face?"

The mirror was taken away, and Xiao Yan returned to his casual position: "Why are you asking this, Dad? I thought you knew more about this than I do."

Mr. Xiao, whose face was scratched by his wife not long ago: ...

It seems a little familiar.

"Forget it, I don't care about you anymore!"

He forced himself to change the subject: "I asked you to come here to tell you that your uncle and his family have already arrived in the capital. They sent a letter asking you to go over and see them."

Ever since the death of the previous Madam Xiao, Uncle Xiao Yan and his family have never set foot in the Duke's Mansion again.

The Duke of Wei felt sorry for the guest, so he asked Xiao Yan to receive him personally every year.

Master Xiao wanted to go, but his uncle's family hated him for forcing him to marry a concubine, which killed their eldest son and caused their sister to die early, so they were unwilling to pay attention to him.

After so many times, Master Xiao knew better and stopped going, leaving the reception task to Xiao Yan.

Originally, my uncle's family would come to the capital a few months later every year, but this year they came earlier because they learned that Xiao Yan was getting married suddenly, so they hurried over. Xiao Yan nodded: "I understand."

"That's all you need to know. The butler will give you the gift for your uncle tomorrow."

That was given by Mr. Xiao's brother-in-law. Even if the other party doesn't recognize him, he still has to show the proper courtesy.

This is also the reason why Xiao Yan had to come here.

Xiao Yan didn't say anything. He just bowed perfunctorily and turned to leave.

When the young man's back disappeared from his sight, Master Xiao, who had just been acting like a stern father, suddenly changed his expression and looked at his confidant:
"Was it his wife who beat him?"

The confidant was a little confused, but nodded hesitantly: "I think...right."

Master Xiao narrowed his eyes with a meaningful look. Just when his confidants were getting excited and thinking that he would say something profound, they heard:
"This daughter-in-law has a bad temper."

Confidant:…
-
Yue Xianhua, as usual, ordered the maid to close the door as soon as Xiao Yan left.

She just didn't want to see him.

If you'd better be tactful, go to Hong Shui's study room, so as to avoid getting disgusted with each other.

Who would have thought that the fact was that she had just fallen asleep and it seemed like someone was left beside her.

She was so shocked that her eyes widened and she was about to scream for help, but her mouth was covered by a familiar hand.

"Don't scream, it's me."

When Yue Xianhua saw the familiar handsome face, her heart was still beating wildly, but her fear had dissipated a lot.

But as soon as Xiao Yan let go of her hand, she pushed him away, grabbed the quilt to wrap herself, and frowned: "How did you get in?"

She clearly checked the doors and windows before going to bed and locked them.

"Guess?" Xiao Yan looked at her and smiled, which annoyed her.

Yue Hua put away his thoughts and said coldly: "To be so skilled at climbing the wall, the Second Young Master must have practiced it countless times in the past, right?"

Xiao Yan raised his eyebrows slightly and said, "Tsk," "So, my lady, are you jealous?"

Yue Hua froze: "I didn't."

"You have."

"I do not have."

"Have."

"No!... Go away, I don't want to talk to you anymore!"

The two of them kept arguing, and before they knew it, they rolled into a ball.

The girl's delicate voice trembled: "I hate you~"

……

When she was about to fall asleep, she suddenly heard the man's hoarse whisper in her ear: "My lady, do you know how you will live if you really divorce me?"

Xiao Yan waited for a while but heard no response. He lowered his eyes and saw that the little girl had fallen asleep with her eyes closed.

She looked so well-behaved when she was asleep, no longer as cold and distant as she was during the day. Her pink lips, which pierced his heart, were slightly pouted, as if inviting a kiss.

Xiao Yan curled the corners of his mouth and lowered his head to kiss the girl on the lips.

It’s okay if you don’t like me, but I can only be in your world.

The next day, when Yue Hua woke up again and found himself lying on a swaying carriage, his first reaction was:

Was she sold again?
