The male supporting role was captured by the protagonist after his rebirth

Zhu Yunque returned to Deng Garden with a heavy heart. His steps became heavier, as if a huge stone was pressing on his heart.

She had no idea what Zhu Zheng had told her to do.

If it is true as the uncle said, the rose garden in Deng Shentong's yard hides an unknown secret, then the key to the garden must be regarded as a treasure by Deng Shentong and he would never show it to anyone easily.

But she, the so-called Mrs. Deng, was in reality just a name without substance. She even had to report in advance before entering Deng Shentong's yard.

Zhu Yunque was thinking and walking absent-mindedly, and before he knew it, he arrived at Deng Shentong's residence.

She stopped and looked up at the closed door, feeling an inexplicable tension in her heart.

She took a deep breath, told herself to calm down, and carefully observe the surrounding environment. Perhaps she could find some clues and come up with a foolproof plan to get the key to the flower garden.

To Zhu Yunque's surprise, the maid who was supposed to be guarding the gate at this time was not there! Zhu Yunque was delighted, feeling that this was an opportunity created for her by God!

So she didn't care about anything else, just looked around along the way, and hurriedly walked to the entrance of the flower garden.

Just as Zhu Yunque was about to reach out and push open the door, he suddenly heard a slight sound of footsteps behind him.

Her heart skipped a beat, and she subconsciously turned her head and looked behind her warily. However, when she saw who was coming, she was stunned - it was Zhang Yi!

Zhang Yi is tall and handsome, but his slightly long bangs make him look a little gloomy, as if he always has a sense of hostility.

"Zhang Yi? Why are you here?" Zhu Yunque's voice became sharp and full of questioning.

Zhang Yi smiled slightly, revealing a hint of teasing: "I should be the one asking you this, Miss Zhu. Why did you break in here without the owner's permission?"

"I... I just want to see these flowers." Zhu Yunque said with a stammer, "After all, I am also the hostess of this Deng Garden."

"Really?" Zhang Yi sneered, "Then why don't you come in openly, but instead sneak around like this? Do you have some ulterior motive?"

"I didn't!" Zhu Yunque quickly denied, "I just..."

"That's enough!" Zhang Yi interrupted her. "No matter what your reason is, trespassing here is against the rules. Tell me, what do you want to do?"

Zhu Yunque bit her lip. She knew she was in a very passive situation. If she couldn't give Zhang Yi a reasonable explanation, it would be difficult to get out of this situation.

Just as she was thinking about how to respond, she suddenly had an idea and raised her head to retort: ​​"Since I can't come, then how can you, a servant, enter here? How dare you question me!"

Zhang Yi's face darkened, and a hint of anger flashed in his eyes: "I am a servant, but the master has entrusted the flower garden to me."

As he spoke, he raised the bunch of keys in his hand that were gleaming with cold light. The sunlight fell on the metal surface, reflecting a cold luster.

"So, of course I have the right to enter here. And you, Miss Zhu, please don't forget your identity."

He stared at Zhu Yunque and took steps forward, the threat in his eyes being self-evident.

Looking at the key in Zhang Yi's hand, Zhu Yunque's heartbeat suddenly quickened.

This is the key to the flower garden!

Deng Shentong actually gave it to this guy!

She rolled her eyes and quickly thought of a response.

After a moment, she pretended to be calm and said, "Don't think I don't know what you are thinking. Aren't you just jealous of me being the legitimate mistress of the Deng family?"

The corners of Zhang Yi's mouth slightly raised, revealing a disdainful smile.

He narrowed his eyes and said in a cold tone, "Humph, jealous? Are you worthy? You are just a tool for marriage."

"You..." Zhu Yunque was so angry that her face turned red, but she couldn't refute.

Just as the two were in a stalemate, footsteps suddenly sounded in the distance.

Hearing this, Zhang Yi quickly put away the hostility on his face, and in the blink of an eye replaced it with a respectful expression.

"Master." He stepped forward and bowed his head.

Deng Shentong looked at Zhang Yi, then at Zhu Yunque, with a hint of doubt in his eyes. "What are you doing here?"

Zhu Yunque quickly explained, "I just wanted to come and see these flowers..."

Deng Shentong interrupted her and said, "If you want to watch it next time, just tell me. I can watch it with you." He turned to Zhang Yi and said, "You go down first."

Zhang Yi responded and glared at Zhu Yunque fiercely before leaving.

After Zhang Yi left, Zhu Yunque took a deep breath and decided to ask Deng Shentong about the reason behind the incident.

"I just heard that you gave the flower garden to that guy to take care of?"

Deng Shentong tucked a strand of silver hair behind his ear and nodded, "Yes, he is quite familiar with the flower garden and is quite careful in his work. What's wrong?"

As he spoke, he opened the glass door of the flower garden and gestured to invite him in: "Don't you want to see it? Come in, I'll accompany you."

Zhu Yunque bent down slightly, seemingly observing the gorgeous flowers carefully, but in fact she was secretly observing the surroundings. However, no matter how carefully she looked, she could not detect anything unusual. This made her begin to doubt whether she was really so stupid that she could not even see a flaw.

But soon, she realized where the problem might lie - she was just an ordinary human woman, while Deng Shentong was an alien with extraordinary powers.

It was too easy for him to create an illusion that could deceive her. Thinking of this, Zhu Yunque couldn't help feeling powerless and frustrated.

Although full of doubts in his heart, Zhu Yunque did not question Deng Shentong directly, but chose a roundabout way to test him.

She whispered, "It's so beautiful here, I like it very much. It would be great if you were willing to let me manage this garden!" After saying this, she carefully observed Deng Shentong's reaction.

Deng Shentong smiled and responded: "As my wife, how can I let you deal with these trivial matters? Seeing you happy is my greatest happiness."

His voice was gentle and low, with a hint of pampering and care. Hearing these words, Zhu Yunque felt a complex emotion in his heart.

She quickly shifted her gaze, not daring to look at Deng Shentong's handsome face again. At this moment, she was no longer the innocent girl she used to be.

Deng Shentong's words made her feel extremely disgusted. They both knew that the other had ulterior motives.

But Deng Shentong was still able to put on an affectionate look, which was undoubtedly another humiliation to her.

But now that we know that Deng Shentong gave the key to that guy Zhang Yi, things become much easier.

Zhu Yunque's fingers unconsciously exerted force and crushed a rose petal viciously.
