Chapter 62

The man who had been awkward and helpless when she teased and made fun of him since they first met, now showed a rare strength that made Xie Wan Ning a little stunned.

By the time she reacted, her back was against the tree trunk, her jaw was held by him, and her lips were numb from his sucking.

Xie Wanning's eyes suddenly widened, a little flustered.

But the touch on his lips was so soft and tender, soothing her panic bit by bit.

Until the panting sound that was so close to him gradually became heavier, Xie Wan Ning could no longer bear it and pushed the person away.

"Pei Changqing!"

Pei Yuqing hummed, took a shallow breath, and kissed her lightly on the lips, while raising his eyelids to look at her and whispering softly.

"My heart can handle it, don't worry."

As he spoke, his lips, which had not left yet, wanted to move deeper again, but Xie Wan Ning immediately held his face and pushed them away a little.

"Stop kissing..."

Finally giving her some breathing space, Xie Wan Ning quickly turned her head to avoid his approach and said quickly, "Let me go."

Pei Yuqing was startled, and the hand holding her chin slowly loosened. She pursed her lips, lowered her eyes and said, "Didn't you say that my heart can handle it? Can you kiss me?"

"..." Xie Wan Ning was choked by his question, took out a handkerchief to wipe the water stains on her lips, and said unhappily: "I just said that, who asked you to really kiss me!"

He kissed her so intently and seriously that she felt a little uneasy.

She kind of likes him, but...

Pei Yuqing understood her unspoken meaning in an instant, and his tightly pursed lips gradually turned white.

She was just teasing him out of interest and had no real intention of having a romantic relationship with him. She wanted to marry him just to get rid of another man and could divorce him at any time.

But he took it seriously.

It was nameless and without status. She just casually said that she had never held hands with anyone else like this, and he couldn't help but hugged the girl and kissed her.

The atmosphere, which was hot just now, suddenly became quiet.

After a long while, Pei Yuqing said, "I'm sorry, I was too reckless."

The voice is steady, without any waves.

Xie Wan Ning's ears moved slightly, and she heard something wrong. When she took a deep breath and looked up at him again, she saw that this man had returned to his previous handsome and gentle appearance.

It was as if the person who had just lost control and wanted to swallow her was not him.

She thought for a moment and said, "You are quite skilled at kissing girls."

Look, in just a short while, he kissed her so hard that she couldn't breathe, and yet she still said she had a heart disease.

Pei Yuqing: “…”

He was silent for a few breaths, seemed extremely helpless, sighed, and asked in a low voice: "Are you skilled?"

Just acting on instinct.

Xie Wan Ning had no one to compare herself to. The Lu Ziyan in her dream...

She blinked and stopped thinking about those unlucky things.

She put her hand into the palm of the man in front of her, tilted her head and asked, "You only kissed me, right?"

He closed his palms, clenched the soft little hand, lowered his head to look into her eyes, hummed, and said lightly: "From now on, you will be the only one."

Even if she didn't intend to be serious with him, even if she was already prepared for divorce before getting married.

He would only want this one.

Xie Wan Ning smiled when she heard this, nodded contentedly, said no more, and pulled him straight towards her yard.

Pei Yuqing looked at the two people's clasped hands and tightened them with a little force. …………

This was the first time in Xie Wan Ning's 16 years of life that she had invited a man from outside to enter her yard late at night.

She didn't think much about it when she nodded in agreement, but when the person really came in, she felt a rare sense of discomfort.

Fortunately, compared to the room where she had slept for more than ten years and which Lu Ziyan had broken into, this room, where she had not slept for a night, was not very private.

After Pei Yuqing carefully checked it, her eyes inadvertently fell on the dressing table.

In the opened dressing box, there happened to be the jade pendant that he gave her when they first met.

…She even brought him along when she came to stay at the farm.

As soon as this thought came to his mind, Pei Yuqing's eyes unconsciously glowed with a soft light, and his originally aching heart gradually relaxed.

He secretly sighed that he was so much older than her in vain. His usually stable emotions became uncontrollable when he met this girl, and his emotions changed with her every move.

This feeling was very uncomfortable, and he didn't want her to feel it.

His gaze lingered for too long, and Xie Wan Ning also saw the jade pendant in the dressing box. She was not embarrassed at all. She stepped forward and picked up the jade pendant. Looking at the pattern carved on it, she asked him with a smile: "Is the Jewelry Pavilion also an asset of the Duke of Pei's Mansion?"

"No." Pei Yuqing said: "It's my private property."

Xie Wanning raised his eyebrows slightly and asked in surprise: "You are still doing business?"

Pei Yuqing didn't want to say more, and only said: "It's needed for intelligence."

As the center of the empire, every government decree and imperial edict was issued from the capital and transmitted to all states and counties.

All the powerful officials from all over the country wanted to find ways and support in Beijing, and they were all trying to get to the capital.

As the eyes of the emperor, the Sky Guards need to obtain intelligence not only through secret investigations by their spies, but also through the industries in the mixed places.

From teahouses and bookstores favored by officials of the aristocratic families to jewelry pavilions where noble ladies gathered, they covered everything.

On the surface, this is Pei Yuqing's private property, but in fact it is for collecting intelligence.

Xie Wan Ning didn't quite understand, but she didn't ask any more questions. She just thought to herself, "You are amazing."

It's really amazing. There are so many aristocratic families in the capital, and each one has more powerful backers than the other, but he has been able to develop and expand the industry to the point where everyone knows about it. His ability is extraordinary.

Pei Yuqing looked at her with a smile and said, "It's late at night, you should take a rest. I'm going back."

As he spoke, he looked at the jade bottle he had given her on the table. He didn't want to touch the things in the girl's room, so he just reminded her, "Remember to take the pills, be calm, and don't stay up all night and affect your health."

Xie Wan Ning opened the jade bottle herself, poured a brown pill into her palm, ate it in front of him, and then waved at him: "Go back, remember to pick me up tomorrow."

Come pick me up...

Pei Yuqing savored the three words, smiled gently, said hello, and turned to leave.

Xie Wan Ning looked at his departing back, closed the door, and hummed happily.

It looked like an unattainable trumpet creeper, but she still picked it.

It took less than a day at the farm to get the person done.

Finally, she had put her mind at ease. She could get rid of Lu Ziyan, and the person she married was the one she chose herself. Xie Wan Ning climbed onto the bed contentedly and fell asleep hugging the thin quilt.

Here, after leaving Xie Wan Ning's boudoir, Pei Yuqing still felt a sense of being adrift.

He walked to the tree where the two were kissing and called out, "Pei Er."

Pei Er appeared from the darkness and said respectfully, "I am here."

"You said..." Pei Yuqing's voice was a little doubtful, "Did you see it?"
