When Xu Rongrong escaped from the room, her cheeks were rosy and she was as beautiful as a peach.

Luo Shu came over with the freshly boiled medicine, and was stunned when he saw his young lady.

"Little...Miss."

Hearing this, Xu Rongrong quickly adjusted her mood. She glanced at the dark medicine and said calmly, "Oh, bring it... bring it in. The Marquis has woken up."

Luo Shu blinked: "Miss...are you okay?"

Xu Rongrong felt flustered. No...it shouldn't be noticed.

"What's wrong with me?" she asked.

Luo Shu: "Miss, your mouth... is swollen."

As soon as the words fell, Xu Rongrong's face suddenly flushed red. She turned around and left in a panic, leaving only the little girl's ambiguous laughter behind her...

As soon as I turned out of the yard, I saw Wen Yao and Wali talking about something in the corridor.

Wally's face was full of anxiety, while Wen Yao comforted him patiently.

Xu Rongrong hesitated for a moment, but finally covered her lips with the round fan in her hand and walked over: "What's wrong?"

Wen Yao was being pestered by Wali, and Xu Rongrong's appearance seemed like a savior. She hurriedly said, "Lord Wali wants to go see Miss Wai."

It has been some time since Wai was rescued, and Xu Rongrong has been placed in Tingyuxuan, Lefang, which is run by Luo Xiao in Pinyuefang. The plan was to wait until Wai recovered from her injuries before bringing Vali to meet her, so that he would not witness the suffering of his sister with his own eyes and thus develop a long-lasting resentment towards the Great Zhou.

However, many unexpected events occurred in the palace during this period, and the emperor became gloomy. He almost eliminated all members of Wu Tianqi and the Queen's faction in the court, and also affected some of Prince Ning's subordinates.

Although Mu Rong is the emperor's nephew, as a military commander guarding the imperial city, he is inevitably targeted.

To be on the safe side, Xu Rongrong also deliberately delayed the meeting time of the Wali brothers and sisters.

The situation has eased slightly, but Mu Rong suddenly fell ill again...

This delayed the matter.

Xu Rongrong looked at Wali's determination and knew that if she delayed any further, this man from southern Xinjiang might not be able to control himself and cause some trouble.

So he had no choice but to agree: "Please be patient, sir. I will take you to see Miss Wai tonight."

"Really?!" Wally's eyes lit up.

"Now, do I have any need to deceive you?"

Wally's dark cheeks flushed. "I'm sorry... I offended you! Can I wait for you here tonight?"

Xu Rongrong nodded.

Vali excitedly grabbed Wen Yao's shoulder and said, "Thank you! And thank you, County Lord!"

After saying this, he loosened his grip and ran back to his room.

Wen Yao rubbed his shoulders that were a little sore from being grabbed, and turned to look at Xu Rongrong: "This person is really weird! Why are you thanking me?!"

Xu Rongrong's eyes flashed slightly, and she smiled without saying anything.

……

Because of Mu Rong's sudden behavior in the morning, Xu Rongrong didn't enter the room all day.

She would either enjoy the cool air in the yard or go to the teahouse to drink tea.

He even looked at the account book while hiding in the tea room.

Wen Yao was a little confused, so he grabbed Luo Shu and asked him, only to see the latter blinking mysteriously, looking as if he was trying to keep quiet.

Unable to get the answer he wanted, Wen Yao went to ask his own lady.

Who knew that it would be fine if she didn't ask, but as soon as she asked, Xu Rongrong turned her back with blushing cheeks and ignored her.

Wen Yao was in a mess, but Luo Shu took the opportunity to stick his head out and said, "Miss, are you still shy? I see your mouth is no longer swollen."

As soon as he finished speaking, an account book was thrown out.

Luo Shu pulled Wen Yao and ran away laughing.

Not long after, the door of the tea room was pushed open again.

Xu Rongrong didn't look back, she was full of annoyance: "Get out! If you make trouble again, I will let your brother take you home!"

"This is strange, why didn't I know that I had a brother?" A deep male voice sounded behind him.

Xu Rongrong was shocked and turned around: "I thought it was Luo Shu, why is the Marquis here?"

Mu Rong smiled and said, "I'm a little thirsty."

After hearing these four words, Xu Rongrong jumped up as if facing a formidable enemy, hugged the account book in her arms, and kept backing away.

Until... I hit the wall and there was no way back.

Seeing this, Mu Rong laughed: "I am really thirsty."

"The kettle in the room is empty, so I'll naturally come to the tea room." After saying that, he took two steps closer, "Or, what has Rongrong thought of?"

"You!" Xu Rongrong glared at him. "In that case, Lord Marquis, just sit here and drink your tea in peace!"

After saying that, she walked directly to the door.

But... this would inevitably pass by Mu Rong. He exerted a little force and grabbed her hand and brought it into his arms.

"Why are you hiding from me?" He held her back, wrapped his arms around her slender waist, lowered his head and leaned against her neck, and said softly, "You took care of me all night, you should at least allow me to say thank you in person."

His breath was warm and tingling on her neck, causing her to shudder.

Mu Rong saw it and smiled faintly: "Rongrong has been hiding from me for a whole day. Is she shy?"

"Blame me. I was too careless this morning."

Xu Rongrong snorted coldly and complained in her heart: You know that too!

But the next moment, she was turned over by Mu Rong and had to look into his teasing eyes.

“But I don’t want to change…”

"Rongrong, we are husband and wife."

After saying that, his lips were about to press down again.

The days of getting along with each other, as well as her close care last night, have made him much bolder.

But this time, Xu Rongrong was more sober than him.

"So, Lord, do you want to force it?"
