Heroine Saves A Gentleman

Chapter 149 - Dying By A Woman’S Hand (3)



Good! The words are exactly mine.

Prince Yan, Cheng Shizhao, was conferred the title of the Crown Prince. Shizhao was entrusted with the countrys responsibilities.

No matter how cold the winter was, itd pass one day.

In the blink of an eye, the ice had melted.

The rain of blood had melted and seeped into the deepness of the ground.

Gradually, it was forgotten by the people.

Spring had come and peach blossoms bloomed.

The capital recovered its prosperity and livelines.

Zhou Xiaoxiao was idly being her marchioness in the residence. She lived every day shamelessly and extravagantly.

Besides making snacks, practicing martial arts, she was pondering over getting entertainment at night in a world without technology.

This day, Yu Xingzhi returned to the residence to see Zhou Xiaoxiao lying on the stone table drawing peach blossoms with bottles and cans by her side.

Why is madam in the mood to use writing brushes to sketch today?

Zhou Xiaoxiao held the inked writing brush and was about to draw when she was distracted by Yu Xingzhi. The pinkish color on the brush landed on the paper and made a pink blotch.

I failed again. Its too easy to permeate the writing paper. Its hard for me to control the moisture content needed. Zhou Xiaoxiao sighed.

What does the madam used to draw on? Let me see if theres something that can replace it. Yu Xingzhi asked.

Zhou Xiaoxiao looked at him and bit the tip of the brush. Her eyes brightened and she said in his ears, I especially like one method. Its basically when I draw on the person. But whos here to let me draw on them right now?

Yu Xingzhi caught her hands and stopped her from stirring him. Xiaoxiao, youre trying to coax me into having fun with you again.

The two were playing around when Juan Zi came in to report, Madam, Military Officer Wang, Wang Xun, came from Feng Xiang. He is here to deliver an invitation and is waiting outside the door right now.

Senior brother? Why is he here? Zhou Xiaoxiao was shocked. Quickly let him in.

Zhou Xiaoxiao received Wang Xun in the front hall.

She found it strange. After all, there were barely any people who knew she transmigrated to another body. Strangers all thought that the original Zhou Xiaoxiao died of sickness and that Yu Xingzhi remarried a woman with the same name as her.

Of course, her master and masters wife knew the inside story. However, they were received back to the residence already. They most likely hadnt written a letter to tell Wang Xun who was in Feng Xiang.

Yet, seeing Wang Xuns incredulous and confused expression, it was clear that he knew the inside story.

Besides second brother and second sister-in-law, there was actually one other person who knew this in Feng Xiang.

Zhou Xiaoxiao thought about it before smiling. Why is senior brother looking at me like this? I havent seen you in a while, so its about time I ask senior brother to give me some pointers for my marksmanship and see if I have improved all these years.

Without another word, Wang Xun stood up.

The two went to the yard and after competing, Wang Xun was defeated.

He painted before tossing his gun and admitting defeat. Youyou are indeed junior sister.

Zhou Xiaoxia smiled and helped him up. Senior brother, you let me win.

The two arranged their clothes before sitting across from each other on the table in the yard. Yu Xingzhi stayed with her.

While Zhou Xiaoxiao poured tea for Wang Xun, she smiled and listened to him talk about their acquaintances recent developments in Feng Xiang.

Yu Xingzhi smiled and greeted the guest, but Zhou Xiaoxiao could tell from his proper expression that he was a bit uncomfortable.

Why did senior brother come to the capital? Is there something you need my help in? Zhou Xiaoxiao lifted the teapot and poured tea while secretly shifting her feet to lightly tease between Yu Xingzhis legs.

Yu Xingzhis face flushed and as though scared that Zhou Xiaoxiao might continue to tease him, he felt as though he was sitting on pins and needles. He lost the mood to be jealous of Wang Xun.

I came here for Lady Yuer from my senior sisters store. After a while, Wang Xun awkwardly stated his purpose. Yuer said that if I want to marry her, I need to ask my senior sister and the marquis.

Yuer? Zhou Xiaoxiao and Yu Xingzhi looked at each other.
