Li Yanqi stayed in Maozhou for some time, and was busy meeting the people he needed to meet and doing the things he needed to do. After sorting out all the matters, he rushed back to Chongzhou without stopping.

It was already midsummer by then. He rushed home exhausted, threw the reins to his personal soldiers, and strode into the yard.

Mrs. Wang was picking vegetables in the yard. When she saw him come back, her brows immediately lit up with joy and she stood up and started shouting.

"Madam, the master is back!"

Li Yanqi didn't glance around, his eyes were fixed on the main room. He brushed the lapels on his chest with his hands a few times and walked straight into the room.

The moment she heard the voice, Lin Yanyu got down from the beauty bed in her satin shoes. She took two steps and met a stern man.

She suddenly stopped, looked at the person who came with her bright eyes, and her cheeks gradually turned rosy.

I haven't seen you for half a month, but I feel a sense of strangeness.

It was clearly the same face, the same honey-colored skin, the same black tights, but I suddenly felt timid and didn't dare to look into his dark eyes.

She didn't dare look at him, but the man looked her up and down.

Her hair was tied up in a loose bun, and it was obvious that she had gotten up in a hurry. Her jet-black hair fell down from her temples, and her cheeks were white with a hint of pink.

It was a hot summer day, and she was only wearing a frost-colored coat embroidered with hibiscus flowers, a wide-sleeved shirt made of soft silk gauze of sky-blue color on the outside, and a light gauze skirt of the same sky-blue color. She was also holding a white-covered book in her hands.

He seemed to have never seen it.

Li Yanqi remained calm, took a few steps forward, and asked lazily, "What book are you reading, madam?"

"No, I didn't read any book!" Lin Yanyu's cheeks turned red instantly. She put the book behind her and took a few steps back defensively until her legs touched the beauty bed.

There is a situation.

The man's dejected look disappeared, his eyes darkened, and swept to her hands behind her back.

He walked forward a few steps, stood in front of her, and spoke in a slow and heavy tone.

"…My wife is so diligent in studying that I feel ashamed."

Lin Yanyu's neck turned red. Under the man's eyes, she put the book next to the couch, sat on it, and said stumblingly, "Yes, yes, yes, learning has no end, and one must study hard until one's old age."

Suddenly, her chin was pinched up, and she had to look Li Yanqi in the face. He smiled with an arc at the end of his eyes, "My lady is right."

The girl's eyelashes trembled violently, she swallowed, and was about to find a reason to send him away.

"do you want……"

Then he suddenly asked, "Do you miss me?"

Lin Yanyu curled her toes and lowered her long eyelashes. After hesitating for only a moment, she answered firmly: "...I think so."

During the time he was away in Maozhou, her worry and longing for him grew stronger with each passing day. Every time she heard the sound of horse hooves outside the door, her heart was in turmoil, and she wondered if he had returned.

The gloom between the man's brows faded a little, and his thumb rubbed the cherry pink lips under his palm, "Show me how much you miss me."

The girl understood the implication of his words and subconsciously tried to turn her head to the side, but was restrained by the other party's two fingers.

The fluttering eyelashes, the shy expression, and the rosy cheeks were completely exposed to his gaze.

"Hurry up." Li Yanqi hooked his index finger, leaned in close, and urged: "I will let you go after you kiss me. You are hesitating. Do you want others to see it?"

"I saw Mrs. Wang going to boil water. If she comes in and sees you, I won't care whether you are embarrassed or not."

Lin Yanyu was shocked. She and Wang Po were always seeing each other. If they were caught, how could she live her life in the future?

Her eyes fell eagerly on the man's thin lips, and she pressed against them regardless.

Then, I heard the other party's muffled laughter, which sounded like mockery.

It was him that she was forced and bribed to kiss, and it was still him that made people laugh after she kissed him.

Lin Yanyu felt angry and tried to move her head back, but unexpectedly, the man grabbed the back of her neck rudely.

He used his mouth and hands without any restraint to push her into his arms.

The girl was drowsy and she didn't expect to be picked up. Her hands were resting weakly on the back of his neck.

When it was finally over, she leaned on his shoulder and breathed softly. Before she could catch her breath, she heard the man slowly utter four words.

"A Quick History of Hairpin Flowers?"

Lin Yanyu: “!”

She was so scared that she immediately held her breath and reached out to grab the book anxiously.

The man restrained her with just one hand, and then he used his long arms and legs to hold her and sit her on the couch.

Lin Yanyu watched him spread out the notebook on the beauty couch and closed her eyes in despair.

I regret it so much that I shouldn't have watched it earlier than being caught.

The reason was that after Li Yanqi left, she was restless and had wild thoughts every day, and was visibly haggard. A doctor came and said that she was worrying too much, which was not good for the fetus.

In order to divert her attention, Yue'e lent her a storybook.

She had just started watching and was about to finish the third episode...

He happened to see the young lady pledge her love to her benefactor. Just as the two of them entered the bed, Li Yanqi came back.

She swears to God, she never expected that this storybook would be so, so... inappropriate.

Every time Li Yanqi turned a page, the girl's heart sank. She moved her wrist, which was being held, and couldn't help but tilt her head to beg for mercy: "There's really nothing to see. Don't, don't read it."

"How can this be possible?"

The man's eyes moved up and down, reading through the pages at a glance, and he said slowly: "If I hadn't seen it, how could I have known that my wife wanted to be turned over in the red waves and rocked on the embroidered bed?"

Lin Yanyu froze for a moment, almost crying with shame, "I didn't, you wronged me, I only saw the third chapter, I didn't see any of this."

She really died unjustly. It would have been fine if she had really seen these, but the key point is that she was caught before she even saw them.

In less than a quarter of an hour, Li Yanqi had roughly read the book "A Quick History of Hairpins" and felt a deep disdain in his heart.

The story is about a poor scholar who was preparing for an imperial examination. When he went to the river to fetch water, he saved a rich lady who had fallen into the water.

The young lady admired his character, appearance and talent, and fell in love with him at first sight. After promising herself to him, she also gave the scholar gold and silver as financial support, and the two promised to spend their lives together.

Later, the scholar passed the imperial examination and was noticed by a high-ranking official in the imperial city. However, the scholar refused to obey and was punished by the high-ranking official.

After the young lady knew about it, she felt that her status was humble and was willing to be the scholar's concubine. The scholar married the official's daughter and got the rich lady as his concubine. With the help of his father-in-law, he rose to prominence.

Li Yanqi snorted coldly. He could guess with his toes that this was made up in a dream by a poor scholar who had failed the imperial examinations for a long time.

Only his naive little rabbit would believe this.

but……

Li Yanqi lowered his head and squinted his eyes to look at the girl's snow-white chest, "So you can play like this..."
