Reborn as a Merchant Girl, the General's Beloved

Seeing her looking at him blankly, as if she was sizing up someone she didn't know, Anan smiled and pushed her, urging her, "It will be dawn soon, go and come back quickly."

"No, how dare you," Xiao Fu grabbed her arm and realized that her hands were sweaty, "I haven't promised you yet!"

"Oh, by the way, when they bring the things over, please also bring the small sandalwood box inlaid with shells from my room." At this point, Anan added, "Let Bai Shao take a good look at it. There are two small sandalwood boxes, both are exactly the same. Take the innermost one, the one near my bedside."

Xiao Fu was frightened by her, and she was awakened, but she didn't know how to react. She just stared at Anan blankly, her mind was blank. After a long while, she asked stupidly: "I am telling you in the name of the eleventh generation descendant of the Xinglin Yuan family. The descendants of the Yuan family will never use drugs to harm people."

"Who can I harm?" Anan's face turned red, and he gritted his teeth and said, "I'm planning to use it myself!"

Xiao Fu suddenly became energetic. Without even having time to put on her shoes and socks, she jumped in front of her: "You, you, you..."

Anan nodded gently.

"Savage manor owner!" Xiao Fu exclaimed again.

Anan nodded gently again and grinned at her: "If you don't agree, I will write a letter to tell Brother Yi that you followed Jinyun to Xinyun Manor. The descendants of the Yuan family will never use drugs to harm others, but they can use drugs to help your dear cousin."

"Ah..." Xiao Fu grabbed her hair and walked around in circles. Even Anan was worried that she was crazy. But after a moment, she stopped in shock and nodded solemnly at her.

The heavy stone in Anan's heart finally fell to the ground, but he still felt a little embarrassed.

"Just wait! I'll be back soon!" Xiao Fu put on her clothes hastily and gritted her teeth, "I promise you in the name of the eleventh generation grandson of the Xinglin Yuan family that I will satisfy Miss Nan!"

As soon as the sky was getting light, Xiao Fu left Xinyun Manor and headed straight for Yongning Guard.

That evening, Mr. Ji was playing chess with him in the guest room. Jiuling slipped in quietly and whispered something in his ear.

There was no expression on his face. He just gently put down the chess piece and smiled at Mr. Ji: "Silang sent someone to deliver a secret letter."

"Go and do your own thing." Mr. Ji's smile was full of care and was so warm that it made people feel extremely happy.

As soon as the master and servant left the house, he turned around and looked deeply at Jiuling.

Jiu Ling nodded silently to confirm the matter. He saw it with his own eyes, so it couldn't be false. However, he couldn't help but frown and asked, "But why did Miss Nan put drugs in your wine?"

"If you want to know why, just go and take a look." He looked up at the main house in the distance and walked forward with big strides.

He sat down at the desk as usual, but before he had finished reading two copies of the documents at hand, Anan came in with a lunch box.

"Master, please have some midnight snack." She walked in with lowered eyebrows and opened the lunch box, revealing several plates of cakes and pastries.

"Yeah." He immediately put down the documents, stood up and walked to the low table and sat down, watching her put the plate on the table carefully and took out a pot of wine very appropriately. She seemed calm and composed throughout the whole process, but in fact her hands were shaking as she held the plate.

He took a bite of the cake, but when he saw the wine jug, he pushed it away: "I have something to do tonight, so I won't drink."
