Chapter 95: A Masterful Performance...

  "So she was this kind of person too..."

  Sheng Jinxiu clenched her fist tightly around the nightgown, suddenly threw it away, and slammed the brocade box shut with a "bang". She looked as if she had suffered a great blow, and smiled bitterly: "It turns out that Sheng Jinxiu's most incompetent thing is that I couldn't tell good people from bad!"

  "Return everything back to its original place!"

  After she finished speaking, she hastily got up and handed the brocade box back to Ye Ming.

  Then she seemed to suppress her anger and turned around, looking at Yan Beizheng.

  "The regent is coming tonight, it turns out he wants me to compete with Zhou Shui Bi in embroidery!"

  "There's no need to compare, my embroidery skills are inferior to Miss Zhou Qi of the Ministry of Revenue's residence, whose needlework is exceptionally outstanding. Since the Regent has accepted Miss Zhou Qi's embroidered nightgown, I'm afraid the one I made won't be able to enter the Regent's eyes either. Then please ask the Regent to return that nightgown to me!"

  "...I was born into a merchant family, and my father's title was only bought with money, which can't compare to the prestige of the Ministry of Revenue's Secretary's household. But I also don't want to share a husband with someone who used to be my handkerchief!"

  "The Regent is... is also willing to accept Miss Zhou Qi's proposal. The marriage between the Regent and I is hereby called off!"

  "I am unwell and need to rest, Prince Regent, please withdraw!"

  Finally, Sheng Jinshu directly gave the order to drive the guests away!

  And before his words had even fallen, he turned around and entered the inner chamber without any hesitation.

  All the way back, he also pulled down the curtain that blocked the view between the inner and outer rooms, covering his own shadow.

  He threw out another sentence: "Also, please tell Miss Zhou Qi after the regent returns that Shi Jingyu and she are no longer friends! From now on, I, Yong'an Houfu, will not welcome her to come!"

  "Regent, Night Ming General, please!" Autumn reality bowed and made a gesture towards Yan Beizheng and Ye Ming.

  "Autumn! They've grown legs and can walk on their own, come help me take off my clothes, my hand hurts..."

  It's completely like a little girl who has been bullied and wronged at home!

  Qiu Shi lifted her leg and walked inside.

  Yan Beizhuang gave Ye Ming a look, and Ye Ming suddenly understood. He took a big step forward, and with one hand, he knocked out Qiushui. Just as he was about to drag the person away, he realized that it was just a little girl, so he could only awkwardly pick her up in his arms and retreat...

  Yan Beizhuang poured himself a cup of wine, took a sip, and found that it was a medicinal wine that greatly helped his injuries. He tilted his head back and drank the rest of the wine in one gulp. Only then did he get up, step by step, steadily walking towards the inner chamber...

  Sheng Jinshu had already lain down on the quilt.

  But she actually held her breath and listened intently to the movements outside.

  The house was very quiet, with beads hanging under the curtain. Even if Yan Bei's hands and feet were light, as long as he pushed open the curtain to enter, there would still be some slight movement.

  What's more, the man's aura was so strong that as he walked closer, his breath became heavier...

  As long as he comes in, she has succeeded halfway!

  Fortunately, Yan Beizhuang didn't make her wait for long, he came over soon.

  "Qiushi, don't try to persuade me about anything, I also know I'm a failure..."

  She deliberately treated Yan Beicheng as a fall guy.

  I thought Yan Beicheng would speak out against it.

  Unexpectedly, he squatted down in front of her bed and helped her take off her shoes and socks.

  Sheng Jinxiu suddenly tensed up and clenched her fists hidden in her sleeves, pretending she hadn't noticed it was him.

  As soon as he helped her take it off, she rolled inside and wrapped herself in the quilt, also rolling to the innermost side of the bed, against the wall, with her back to him...
