Cheng Jinning clapped her hands happily and said, "Sister, listen, didn't my brother-in-law agree?"

Cheng Songan hummed softly, his calm heart beginning to become disturbed. Did the "okay" he said include "there is only my sister in my heart, and I keep her in my heart every day"?

No matter how bad Cui Yuanqing was, there was one thing about him: he never broke his word and never made random promises.

Glancing at Cheng Wanxin, Cheng Songan lowered his head and sneered at Cheng Jinning: "You have two sisters."

Cheng Wanxin's eyes suddenly changed color, and he looked at Cheng Songan with shock and fear, full of vigilance. Then he felt that he had lost his composure, so he brought the tea to his mouth to cover it up.

Cui Yuanqing frowned and said in a deep voice: "Madam, don't talk nonsense in front of my second sister!"

Cheng Jinning was also dissatisfied: "Sister, brother-in-law married you, so of course he is talking about you. How can you say this in front of my second sister? Fortunately, brother-in-law Jin is not here. Don't you think so, second sister?"

She disliked Cheng Wanxin, especially after the previous scandal. She knew that she didn't want to marry into the Jin family, so she deliberately asked in a long tone.

Cheng Wanxin raised her pretty eyebrows and smiled at her, "Yes."

There was no longer the surprise in her eyes, but instead a clear brightness. She was not extremely unhappy.

Cheng Songan looked at her steadily, and then he realized that she must have just realized that he already knew what happened between them. Now they didn't have to play guessing game anymore, as everything was laid out on the table.

The three of them stopped talking. Cheng Songan hugged Cheng Jinning, patted her and told her to rest for a while.

Cui Wenxin was still a child after all, and was reluctant to leave Cheng Jinning behind. She walked around outside and then pulled the curtain inside and said, "Miss San, Chunhui Garden is going to have a dinner soon. Do you want to go and have a look? The old ancestor has sent over many living things today."

Cheng Jining was feeling sleepy, but he immediately perked up when he heard this. He got off the couch and asked, "What living thing?"

Cui Yuanqing smiled and said, "Doesn't Jin Ning love riding horses? Go pick a pony and take it back."

Cheng Jining exclaimed: "Xiao Ma?"

Cheng Songan was a little surprised. Cui Yuanqing seemed to be trying to please her third sister everywhere today. As expected, Cheng Jinning ran out like a whirlwind, then turned back and said to her, "Sister, your brother-in-law is so good, you should also keep him in your heart every day."

Cui Yuanqing glanced at her intentionally or unintentionally.

Cheng Songan ignored him and instructed Qiangwei, "Go with Yunshan and Xuesong, and keep an eye on them. Don't let the Third Miss cause any trouble over there."

As soon as these two troublemakers left, the room became silent again.

Cui Yuanqing suddenly said, "Second sister, don't you want to go over and take a look?"

The tone was indifferent and distant, yet there was also a rare tenderness in it.

Cheng Songan didn't know why, but he called his third sister Jin Ning, but called Cheng Wanxin the second sister.

Cheng Wanxin was startled, her face slightly flushed, and she pursed her lips and replied, "Okay."

As he spoke, he stood up and waved to Citron, and the two of them followed him out of the room.

Cheng Songan had been tense for so long that he finally relaxed. He stood up from the couch and took two steps to stretch his muscles. When he turned around, he found Cui Yuanqing still sitting on the couch, wondering what he was thinking about.

"Why is your Excellency still here?" Cheng Songan asked in surprise.

Didn't he send Cheng Wanxin away just to accompany her?

At this time, there were only two of them left in the room. Cui Yuanqing still had the same warm smile as before when the room was full of guests. He whispered to her, "Come here."

Cheng Songan was puzzled: "Why?"

Cui Yuanqing waved again: "Come here."

Cheng Songan walked over, thinking that he had something important to say, but unexpectedly Cui Yuanqing held her hand, pulled her into his arms, and rested his chin on her shoulder.

There was a faint smell of alcohol on his body, probably because he had a few drinks at the lunch banquet. Cheng Songan was used to his madness in the past two days, so he didn't bother with him. He just stood there stiffly, letting him hold her.

"You really don't want to go to Jiangnan?" Cui Yuanqing's breath, slightly scented with alcohol, fell on her neck, warm and tingling.

Cheng Songan snorted: "No."

Cui Yuanqing turned her body around to face him, his eyes reddened as he stared into her eyes and said, "I haven't been happy at all living in the government office these days."

Cheng Songan said nothing. Of course, the government office was not as good as the mansion, so he was naturally unhappy. But whether he was unhappy or not was none of her business. She ate well and slept well at home, and she was very happy.

She thought for a moment and said calmly, "If you need someone to take care of me, I will find someone good to follow you and serve you."

Cui Yuanqing laughed in anger, and moved his hands from her shoulders to her cheeks, holding her face, and said word by word: "It's because of you, Cheng Songan, I'm not happy without you in the government office."

Cheng Songan's breathing stagnated, and she avoided his gaze somewhat evasively. If she had heard a word of these words in her previous life, she would not have died with such regrets. But now that she heard them, she just felt it was ridiculous. Would he be unhappy because she was not in the office? He would not tell her that he was like this because he had her in his heart, right?

Cui Yuanqing rested his head on her forehead and rubbed it gently: "It will take longer to go to Jiangnan, I can't bear to leave you."

Cheng Songan's heart tightened and began beating wildly, almost bursting through her chest and falling to the ground. Cui Yuanqing was really crazy. She pushed him hard, wanting to escape and not listen to any more.

However, Cui Yuanqing was much stronger than her, so she couldn't escape at all. She could only say coldly: "Master Cui, I don't understand what you are doing."

Cui Yuanqing sighed, "When I come back from Jiangnan, everything will be settled. I will make one thing clear to you."

Cheng Songan's voice was a little hoarse: "What's the matter?"

Cui Yuanqing gently stroked her face with his hands, and said with a gentleness that could drown someone: "Can we start over again?"

Cheng Songan sneered: "You are joking, sir. We have never started anything before, so how can we start over?"

Cui Yuanqing stared at her with a sad look for a while, but he finally gave in and said with his eyes downcast: "Nothing has ever happened between me and your second sister. As long as things are settled, I will definitely tell you clearly."

Cheng Songan's sneer was still on her lips. Nothing happened between them, wasn't it because she stopped it in time? Is this worth talking about? She said coldly: "If you want to say it, then say it. I'm all ears."

Cui Yuanqing stared at her lips with burning eyes and whispered, "Cheng Yundai, wait with all your heart for me to come back."

Cheng Songan was speechless for a moment.

"Second Miss, why are you back again?" Yulan asked outside the door.

Cheng Wanxin held onto the door frame, watching the two of them almost embracing each other, and stammered, "My handkerchief fell off."
