Chapter 310 It's Time to Be Clear
Qin Xiaoning soothed him and said, "Lu Ji, let's just look forward. Don't dwell on the past. You will have a bright future, a beautiful wife and concubines, and a beautiful life. I will also be comfortable and free."
"We all live the life we want, isn't that good?"
Lu Ji fell completely silent after hearing that. Qin Xiaoning also stopped talking when she saw that. The two of them, one sat there in a daze while the other continued to sleep.
When they arrived at the official post station, the carriage stopped and Lu Ji stepped out of the carriage with his long legs. Qin Xiaoning had slept all the way, so she stretched her waist first and then opened the curtain.
Lu Ji stood under the car, expressionless on his face, and stretched out his hand to her.
Qin Xiaoning didn't bother to be polite with him. She held his hand and got off the carriage. Before she could take a step, a veil was thrown over her head. She was about to speak when Lu Ji insisted, "It's windy, keep it on."
It's late summer, where does the wind come from?
It's just that the man doesn't want her to show up in public.
In front of everyone, Qin Xiaoning didn't bother to argue with him. She just raised her hand to straighten her clothes and walked into the inn.
The postmaster was already outside. When he saw Lu Ji and his group coming, he and his soldiers bowed and greeted them, calling out, "Hello, Prince Regent."
The attitude was respectful, fearful, and flattering.
As a man in a high position, he was used to these things. He didn't even look at the postmaster.
After entering the inn, the waitress came to serve Qin Xiaoning diligently. Even the maids and servants who followed her had maids to serve them.
The two wet nurses had never seen such a scene before, and the two little maids Qing'er and Hong'er had never seen the world before. Faced with such a scene, everyone was simply at a loss as to what to do.
After bathing and changing clothes, the maid brought the food, all of which were delicacies, which stunned the servants.
This is the good thing about being with Lu Ji, you will always have endless wealth and glory.
Qin Xiaoning sat down at the dining table and was about to pick up the jade chopsticks when Song Zhi came over and whispered, "A Ning, do you want to wait for the prince?"
"No need." Qin Xiaoning said, "He won't come here to use it with me."
"Did you have a fight?" Songzhi sighed.
Qin Xiaoning smiled bitterly: "Since he came to Qianzhou, haven't we been arguing all the time? Whenever we talk, we start arguing within three sentences."
Songzhi frowned when she heard this: "How could this happen?" She looked at Qin Xiaoning with regret on her face: "In the past, you two were so loving. Whenever you were together, you were always happy and had endless things to talk about."
They were indeed very happy when they were together before.
Qin Xiaoning couldn't help but sigh: "Now he is already the high and mighty Regent. People always change."
"Is it only the prince who has changed?" Songzhi retorted: "I am watching from the sidelines, but I think you have changed more."
Has she changed?
Seeing Qin Xiaoning was distracted, Song Zhi continued, "After you leave the mansion, you can support yourself and live a decent life with your own abilities. You will feel more confident and no longer need to rely on the prince like before."
Then he sighed, "I think the prince still loves you deeply."
If you really love her, why don't you marry her?
The current Lu Ji is no longer the same as before and is fully capable of doing so.
Knowing that she was unwilling to be humble, he still did not give her the position of wife. How could this be called deep love?
Qin Xiaoning smiled faintly: "You don't have to feel sorry for him. He is now the regent king. He can get whatever he wants. What else does he lack women? Just wait and see. When he arrives at the mansion, there may be a beautiful concubine in Qingsong Garden. When Wang Fengyi comes in after a while, you will see that he will be even more proud."
"I am a daughter of Wang Clan of Langya. I have many ways to win over men."
Qin Xiaoning was talking here, and Songzhi couldn't help but burst out laughing.
"why are you laughing?"
Songzhi suppressed his laughter: "Look at you, you are full of jealousy in your words." "Why should I be jealous?" Qin Xiaoning snorted: "I just regard him as the father of my child at the moment, and I don't care about the rest."
The two were talking when they heard a clearing of throat at the door.
It’s Lu Ji who is here.
I don't know how long he has been there, and whether he heard the conversation between the two just now.
Songzhi felt guilty, winked at Qin Xiaoning, then bowed and retreated.
Qin Xiaoning glanced at Lu Ji indifferently, said nothing, and continued to eat.
Lu Ji walked over, sat down opposite her, looked at her and asked, "Does it suit your taste?"
"It's okay." Qin Xiaoning replied indifferently.
Lu Ji didn't say anything else, but just served her food from time to time. Qin Xiaoning didn't say anything either, and just enjoyed it all with peace of mind.
But she was pregnant with his child, so it was only right for him to take good care of her.
Seeing her obediently eating the food he picked for her, Lu Ji's face gradually showed a happy expression: "You should eat more now. Only if you eat well can the child grow strong."
See, it’s all for his children.
Although Qin Xiaoning was secretly dissatisfied, she didn't get angry with him for the moment and just enjoyed the delicious meal.
After the meal, Qin Xiaoning felt a little full.
"I have to go out for a walk to help digest my food," she said casually while putting on her coat.
Lu Ji said: "I have to go out to do something, so I won't accompany you."
She hadn't originally thought of asking him to accompany her.
Qin Xiaoning said, "Just go ahead and get busy."
It was just a perfunctory remark, but Lu Ji's tone was filled with apology: "I'll be back soon."
Then he asked earnestly, "Do you want any snacks? I'll buy them for you when I come back."
Qin Xiaoning thought about it and replied casually: "That's not necessary. I have already eaten a lot of food and don't want to use anything else."
She had no interest in perfunctorily chatting with Lu Ji, so she walked out casually after saying this. However, Lu Ji chased after her and continued, "I will be back when I am done with my work, and I will definitely be back before you fall asleep."
What does he mean?
Do you want to sleep with her at night?
Qin Xiaoning felt that they had already talked it out. He would not marry her, and she would no longer be his concubine.
From now on, they are just the child's father and mother.
As for the emotional entanglement between the two, it should be cut off once and for all.
Did he want to sleep with her again, to take advantage of her? Or did he want to continue to rely on her and make her his concubine?
Qin Xiaoning cleared her throat and turned to look at Lu Ji, her eyes full of vigilance.
She had a wooden face and slightly opened her red lips: "Lu Ji, haven't we made everything clear?"
Lu Ji frowned, looking puzzled: "What did we clarify?"
Qin Xiaoning said seriously: "We will each get married in the future."
She cleared her throat again and reminded him directly: "I think we should sleep separately from now on. It's not good to be so entangled."
