Chapter 147 Don’t be rash and do stupid things

When Lu Ji walked a long way away, Wang Fengyi's maid could not help but speak: "This Lu family's young master is really too much. Yesterday, in front of relatives and friends, he actually left you alone before the banquet was over. When we met today, he didn't even say a word of apology. It's really inconsiderate."

Wang Fengyi listened to the maid's complaints and smiled faintly: "You still expect him to be considerate to me? I'm afraid he agreed to this marriage reluctantly."

"Miss, you are the legitimate daughter of Wang Clan of Langya, and you were originally the queen of the palace. Aren't you worthy of a prince of a noble family? This prince of the Lu family really has no idea how to be satisfied."

"It's not that she doesn't know how to be satisfied." Wang Fengyi said bluntly, "It's just that he has someone in his heart and can't tolerate me for a while."

"Miss, are you talking about Miss Qin?"

"Who else could it be but her?"

After experiencing so many cold treatments in succession, Wang Fengyi still looked dignified. Facing the maid's indignation, she said calmly: "I'm afraid that girl has already taken root in his heart, so he can't stand others."

"Miss, that's the husband you're going to marry." The little maid frowned, "He has someone else in his heart, but you're not worried at all? What if he favors his concubine over his wife in the future?"

"What's the use of my rush?"

Wang Fengyi smiled awkwardly: "As the saying goes, a bull won't eat grass if you force it. He doesn't have me in his heart right now, so how can I force him?"

Seeing the maidservant was about to argue again, Wang Fengyi waved her hand and said, "Forget it, don't worry about me. What's the matter with favoring a concubine over destroying a wife? Such a thing will never happen in the mansion. Even if he doesn't have it in his heart for the time being, it doesn't matter. I am the proud daughter of the Wang family of Langya. Sooner or later, Lu Ji will see my good side."

Knowing that her young lady was a person with ambition and ideas, the little maid finally relaxed a little after seeing this: "What the young lady said is true, but I am sorry for wronging you. I feel sorry for you."

"I have nothing to be wronged about." Wang Fengyi stopped her slow pace and turned to look at the maid beside her: "If my mother had agreed to the clan's wishes and sent me to the imperial city, the women there would all be from prominent families and cunning, and I would have suffered more than this in my life."

As she spoke, she smiled faintly: "What I have to face now is just an orphan girl with no one to rely on. It's nothing to be afraid of."

Lu Ji returned to Qingsong Garden and entered the main house. He didn't see Qin Xiaoning, so he turned around and went straight to the back wing where she used to live.

Sure enough, the little girl was here.

She was sitting upright on the bed, holding a money box in her hands, and counting the silver with her head buried.

Lu Ji stood at the door, looking at her intently. She was counting so intently that it took her a long time to notice him.

"Why are you back again?"

When the little girl saw Lu Ji, there was panic on her face. While talking, she hurriedly started to collect the money.

Lu Ji stepped into the house, glanced at the flustered look of the little girl, and opened his thin lips slightly: "How much silver have you saved?"

Qin Xiaoning paused her busy hands and then looked up at Lu Ji.

"No, not much."

She spoke haltingly, and seeing him staring at her, she added, "Amber just came to deliver the monthly allowance, so I counted it by the way."

"Why explain this?"

Lu Ji looked at her with deep eyes, his face gloomy, and asked coldly: "Are you hiding something?"

Of course he has something to hide.

Want to run away.

You are about to marry someone else, but you are staring at me like this. If there is any sign of trouble, you will turn your face against her.

When you were about to get married, did you ever complain?
Only you are allowed to set fire, is it illegal for her to light an oil lamp for herself?
Although she was full of resentment, she didn't dare to show it. She usually dared to get angry with Lu Ji, but recently Lu Ji was forced to get married and was in a bad mood. The girl didn't dare to offend him. Besides, he wouldn't listen to her so-called reasoning on this matter. As long as she showed a little bit of second thoughts about him, it would be a great rebellion in Lu Ji's eyes.

He is a domineering person.

"What kind of evil could I have in my mind?" She looked at him with her black and white eyes, her face full of innocence: "I'm just counting my private money."

Lu Ji still had a cold expression on his face. He lowered his eyes to look at the silver in her hand and asked coldly, "How much private money do you have?"

I always feel that Lu Ji has already seen through my thoughts.

The little girl was a little scared.

Although she would act like a spoiled child with him without blinking an eye on normal days, the little girl was actually very scared once Lu Ji got angry.

It is true that he dotes on me, but if I really touch his weak spot, Lu Ji will not show any mercy when dealing with him.

That time, she was caught by him having sex with Shen Qingshu, and he slapped her on the butt.

It was a painful lesson, and the little girl remembered it clearly.

"You're asking questions?"

Seeing that she was still silent, the man asked again: "How much private money do you have?"

The girl raised her eyes and glanced at him. Seeing the man's grim expression, she hummed like a mosquito and replied, "Ninety-eight taels of silver."

Then, she glanced at his face and said, "I'm only two taels away from saving up a hundred taels."

Lu Ji fell silent, his face still very gloomy, and his whole body was as cold as ice, which made the little girl feel a sense of oppression for no reason, and her heart started pounding.

After a long while, the man finally spoke, his voice softened: "I didn't scold you? What are you afraid of?"

The little girl felt wronged and tears welled up in her eyes.

Lu Ji turned his eyes to look at her: "Don't cry."

She was just worried that he would see through her thoughts, but she didn't necessarily want to cry. When she saw his face turn cold again, the little girl immediately wiped away her tears.

She lowered her head and looked at him sullenly like a child who had done something wrong.

Cursing Lu Ji in my heart.

You are about to get married, but you are making things difficult for yourself. Who are you trying to show off to? Humph! I wish I could leave tomorrow and make him regret it.
"Don't even think about leaving."

The little girl was socializing here, and Lu Ji's light words scared her.

The man spoke again: "This one hundred taels of silver, if you use it frugally, will be enough for you to eat and wear for several years."

She was about to open her mouth to defend herself, but when she glanced at Lu Ji's cold eyes, she swallowed the words back.

"Life out there is not as good as you think." He continued, "There are all kinds of people out there, including wolves, tigers and leopards. If a girl like you were to go out there, you would be eaten to the bone in two days."

As he spoke, he raised his hand and pinched her small chin. His deep eyes met the girl's clear eyes, and his tone became earnest: "So, don't do stupid things behind my back. I said that I will protect you forever. You can rest assured. If someone dares to bully you, just tell me and I will take care of it for you."

He repeated, "Just don't be rash and do something stupid, okay?"

Please give me a monthly ticket!
