Chapter 146 Thank you
The little woman looked innocent and smiled at the man: "Why would I leave you?"

The man stopped what he was doing when he heard that, and frowned at her: "You really don't have any evil ideas?"

The little woman was happy: "I am so weak and can't take care of myself. You have always taken care of me. How can I leave you? Besides, even if I leave, where can I go? I don't have any relatives in this world."

The man's brows finally relaxed, and he leaned over and passionately kissed the little woman under him: "Don't worry, I will protect you for the rest of my life."

Worried that he might get suspicious, the little woman nodded obediently. When he was finally satisfied, she snuggled into his arms and asked, "If Miss Wang comes in and sees how much you dote on me, and she doesn't like it, will you respect the rules and let her bully me?"

"will not."

Lu Ji blurted out without thinking, and said, he held up the charming little face of the little woman: "I have said it before, no one in this world can bully you except me."

The little woman pretended to be surprised: "Then I feel relieved."

As he spoke, Lu Ji said to himself angrily: "Why should the little girl I raised be bullied by others?"

His big hand was on her waist. When he said this, Qin Xiaoning felt the man's hand trembling slightly.

I'm really angry.

Who pissed him off?

She? Or Wang Fengyi?
The little woman didn't dare to bring it up again, and changed the subject to ask him, "When did the party end last night? Did you drink a lot of wine?"

She got drunk at Mr. Su's house last night, and the girl had no idea that Lu Ji came to pick her up.

Lu Ji didn't respond when he heard it, but instead approached her again.

This time, it came with a violent storm, as if it was raging fiercely.

After a long time, the man finally stopped. The little woman was so tired that she collapsed. She tilted her head and fell asleep again in a daze.

In Anju Hall.

Lu Ji left the engagement banquet early yesterday, leaving Wang Fengyi alone to deal with it. Everyone thought that Miss Wang would be dissatisfied, but Wang Fengyi not only did not complain, but she also dealt with all the guests alone in her wedding dress until the banquet was over. This morning, early in the morning, she came to Anju Hall to pay her respects to the Duke and the Duchess as per etiquette.

In comparison, his son's behavior seemed unacceptable.

Early in the morning, the Duke's wife comforted Wang Fengyi carefully. It was almost noon when Lu Ji finally arrived.

The Duke's wife rolled her eyes at him and asked, "Where were you at the engagement party yesterday?"

Lu Ji sat down on the chair with a gloomy face, "Didn't I tell someone to go back and rest when I'm drunk?"

There was impatience in his tone.

The Duke's wife sneered, "I don't know you, kid. When you were in the army, you were the kind of guy who drank all night. When did you become so weak? How could you get so drunk after just a few glasses of light wine?"

Knowing that his son was reluctant about this marriage, if the saint had not pressed him with ill intentions, the marriage would not have been arranged so hastily.

The Duke saw that his son was unhappy and winked at his wife secretly, and the Duke's wife stopped teasing him.

"Engagement is a happy event, why do you always look so gloomy?"

The Duke scolded his son, then he said in a gentle tone, "I know you don't like being forced, but this girl from the Wang family is really good. You treated her so coldly yesterday, but she didn't complain at all. She even came to greet your mother and me this morning. She is a very well-behaved and thoughtful child. You are a man, and since the marriage is already decided, you should take some responsibility and treat her well."

Lu Ji knew this truth, but it was really difficult for him to make her perfunctory to a woman he didn't love. The Duke talked about a lot of truths, and Lu Ji only replied with three words.

"understood."

The Duke's wife looked at her husband helplessly. The Duke was also helpless with this stubborn son. The family of three was deadlocked for a long time. The Duke's wife waved her hand at him: "Don't stand here with me. Feng girl will move back to the old house in the capital with her brother and sister-in-law today. Go and say something to her."

Lu Ji stood up after hearing this. When he walked to the door, the Duke couldn't help but remind him again: "It was your fault yesterday. Apologize to the girl."

Lu Ji said nothing and walked out of the door. Desheng, who was waiting outside, followed him all the way out of Anju Hall. When they reached the fork in the road, they saw Lu Ji heading straight back to Qingsong Garden. Desheng hurriedly reminded him, "My lord, the Fengqi Courtyard where my cousin lives is over there."

Lu Ji replied: "I know."

He replied indifferently, but still walked in the opposite direction.

Knowing that his master was in a bad mood recently, Desheng didn't dare to say much and followed him silently all the way back. As luck would have it, the master and servant met Wang Fengyi halfway through their journey.

Now that she is engaged to Lu Ji, it is not appropriate for her to continue living in the Lu family before marriage. The eldest son of the Wang family will take his wife and sister back to the Wang family's old house in the capital. This time, Wang Fengyi is going to say goodbye to the lady-in-waiting.

Unexpectedly, she happened to meet her fiancé Lu Ji. Although he embarrassed her yesterday, the daughter of Langya Wang has always been dignified and serious, and would never show her dissatisfaction on her face.

"I met my cousin."

When he met Lu Ji, Wang Fengyi bowed to him and greeted him first.

She had a gentle attitude and even a warm smile on her face, as if she didn't care at all about the cold treatment she received yesterday.

Lu Ji stopped and glanced at the newcomer: "I heard that my cousin is moving back to the old house?"

His tone was calm and his face showed no unnecessary expression.

Wang Fengyi replied, "My brother feels bad for disturbing me for several months. He ordered people to renovate the old house a few years ago. Today, my brother and I will move back."

Lu Ji nodded and said nothing more. Seeing this, Wang Fengyi bowed slightly to Lu Ji, turned around and was about to leave slowly. After she took two or three steps, Lu Ji spoke again.

"cousin."

Hearing his call, Wang Fengyi stopped and turned around again: "Cousin, what's the matter?"

What happened yesterday was indeed rude of his.

I want to apologize, but it's hard to say it.

Growing up, he had only spoken soft words to his little girl in private, and he couldn't say them to other women.

Seeing Lu Ji frowning again, Wang Fengyi spoke first: "Cousin, don't worry about what happened yesterday. Since we are already engaged, we will be the closest people in the future. I won't care about these trivial matters."

Lu Ji breathed a sigh of relief that the other party was so sensible.

He said, "Have a safe journey, cousin."

After saying this, he was about to turn around when Wang Fengyi called him back. She said to him, "I know that my cousin loves Miss Qin. You can rest assured that I will get along well with her and will not embarrass you."

Hearing this, Lu Ji suddenly raised his head and finally looked at Wang Fengyi straight in the eye. Facing Wang Fengyi's friendly smile, he said, "Thank you."
