Chapter 464.1: Need to Nip the Peach Blossoms

Li Hong Yuan glanced at her, but didn’t continue saying anything.

Jing Wan got up, letting the servant girls dress her. En, this one right now that will replace Qing Zhu and them was fifteen, however her hairstyling skill was nevertheless quite good. Just, this age, at most, can only keep by her side for three years before needing to marry. If not for her already preparing these replacements prior to marrying, only entering the manor after returning to the capital from Jiangnan, further training, Jing Wan would even suspect whether or not they were chosen by a certain someone——–not letting ‘outsiders’ stay by her side for too long.

However, being a bit older also had its benefits. If too young, Jing Wan would even feel guilty ordering around.

Jing Wan half closed her eyes, her mind still on Li Hong Yuan.

Sometimes, she even suspect whether or not a certain someone had his EQ devoured by his IQ, thus why his IQ was that high, always steadily in line, and his EQ that ‘low’, pulling in hate all over the world.

But, despite pulling in hate, it didn’t have any influence towards him in the slightest. Usually, it was even others that needed to yield. In addition to his various ‘methods’ towards her, can you say that his EQ was low? Completely can’t! Clearly, it was also off the charts.

This was having gathered all the favorable conditions of heaven and earth. Even the Emperor, afraid, all wasn’t able to be as carefree as him.

Just, Jing Wan didn’t believe this was something that fell from the skies for no reason. For the sake of today, don’t know how much her husband has prepared in secret. Every time thinking about it, she would just feel heartbroken for him. Jing Wan wasn’t one to chase the past, yet at this time, she nevertheless wanted to understand his past, regretting that period of time that she didn’t participate in.

However, unbeknownst to her, in the many years prior to them meeting in this life, she was also a part of his life, a very important part.

After getting ready, Li Hong Yuan discovered, his wife’s gaze towards him seemingly changed again, causing even him to feel somewhat baffled. All say, ‘a woman’s heart, like a needle in the ocean’. Looking at it now, his wife also wasn’t an exception.

Fortunately, Jing Wan didn’t know Li Hong Yuan’s thoughts, else she’d get angered to death. For once she was being sentimental, yet he was able to have it shattered in seconds. This was having high EQ? Clearly it was low to the point of nonexistence. And it was also fortunate that this kind of thing, Li Hong Yuan absolutely won’t say out loud. That’s why, this EQ was definitely there.

After everything was in order, Li Hong Yuan pulled along Jing Wan’s hand, the two walking side by side, heading neither quickly nor slowly towards the direction of the show garden.

Along the way, Jing Wan carried a smile from beginning to end, her gazes for the most part all on Li Hong Yuan.

Li Hong Yuan’s expression was somewhat nonchalant, seemingly not responding to Jing Wan, yet from time to time, he would lightly pull, or hold her shoulder, letting Jing Wan, who wasn’t paying attention to the road at all, walk steadily and smoothly, not tripping or bumping into things.

Going over from this side, the garden arranged for the female guests was a little closer. Although not reaching the seats, Li Hong Yuan still had Jing Wan sent in, also brushing her not at all messy hair, and lightly tidying her not at all disorderly clothes, softly whispering a few words. He himself perhaps didn’t notice, but in the eyes of an outsider, it really was indescribably soft and tender, gentle and affectionate. The originally already settled commotion, this while, became even more intense.

Li Hong Yuan lowered his head and kissed Jing Wan’s forehead. Jing Wan hurriedly backed away, looking left and right like a thief, somewhat sulkily reaching out to smack him, grumblingly muttering something. Similarly, in others’ eyes, it was clearly feeling bashful from being surprised, yet still put on an act. All say that Jin Wangfei was one that was accustomed to putting on an act, the inside and outside not matching. Sure enough, this was true!

They gritted their teeth in anger as they tugged their handkerchief, wishing to have Jing Wan ruthlessly torn away, and afterwards, take her place.

This kind of shameful appearance, anyone that wasn’t blind all saw clearly. As the elders, that was really hating that one can’t find a crack to squeeze into. It was truly too embarrassing. Of course, this was just one side. A few that were already married, in fact, didn’t even restrain their own emotions, completely falling into the eyes of their own mother-in-law. Try asking, as a mother, how can one tolerate one’s own son getting ‘cuckold’ by one’s daughter-in-law? Those eyes were just like dipped in poison. Slut, not abiding by the ways of a wife, this kind of cursing was still the lightest.

However, even if angered, it was impossible to pin the blame on Li Hong Yuan. It’s not like he was trying to seduce them. He was merely just very normally getting along with his own wife, and even in his own territory. No one had grounds to criticize him.

These people, when they return, don’t know how they will get sorted out.

Unfortunately, these young ladies and young madams, at this time, were all ignorant and unaware, completely drawn in by Li Hong Yuan. As for Jing Wan? Heheh, that was automatically having Jing Wan’s face switched with theirs in their mind.

Jing Wan pressed a few times, and Li Hong Yuan finally began to leave, but not forgetting to warn Jing Wan’s servant girl to look after her.

Being in a good mood, Jing Wan’s smile naturally was unable to fade. Just, as she got closer, she couldn’t help but pause in her step. Did something happen? She was merely drunk for a short while. Why was the resentment so heavy?

Setting aside the scene between Jing Wan and Li Hong Yuan, just solely looking at Jing Wan’s current complexion, one was unable to make out in the slightest the discomfort from getting drunk. It was bright and rosy, the corners of her eyes full of seductive charm, seemingly having been fiercely moistened.

How could it not make certain people that were unable to obtain themselves ‘overflow with anger’?

If Jing Wan knew, she certainly would shout for her innocence. Because she was very well aware of Li Hong Yuan’s true nature, previously, even if exceptionally happy inside, she still didn’t dare to kiss him. If she kissed, afraid she really won’t be able to leave the bedroom door.

Can only say, their malice was too strong, the resentment too deep, so naturally will imagine some ‘unusual’ things.

Jing Wan silently went upstairs. The atmosphere here was rather normal. En, perhaps she will be able to learn the reason why it was abnormal downstairs very soon. Jing Wan charmingly smiled as she greeted everyone, expressing her apologies towards leaving the banquet feast early. And if the reception is not to their satisfaction, asking to please forgive.

It was obvious, this kind of thing was actually quite normal. Moreover, the things Jin Qinwang Manor prepared this time, they really weren’t able to pick out anything bad. Then, recalling Jin Qinwang’s attitude towards her, they further won’t say anything.

Due to the issue of status, Jing Wan naturally can’t go look for Sun Yi Jia and them right now. That’s why, today, she was destined to be unable to speak with her former best friend.

The Grand Elder Princess waved her hand, letting Jing Wan sit by her side.

Jing Wan didn’t turn down, peacefully sitting down by the Grand Elder Princess’s side.

Jing Wan originally thought that her adoptive mother would have something to say to her, but in the end, the Grand Elder Princess just concentrated on watching the play, and having Jing Wan called to her side was seemingly just like as if Jing Wan had nowhere to sit.

This kind of situation, Jing Wan could only feel helpless. However, towards the matter below, she wasn’t very curious either. That’s why, whether or not she can learn at this time didn’t really matter. Even if in the end, she can’t find out, it can only mean that it wasn’t really important. And if it is important, then she will certainly find out sooner or later.

Because it was the performers raised in the manor, the opera plays afterwards, many were actually arranged based on Jing Wan’s preferences. After all, for people like them, it was their job to appease their masters. As such, Jing Wan was a bit more interested in the plays today, feeling it was quite good, momentarily not noticing the reason within.

However, for people like the Grand Elder Princess, quite a few liked listening to plays, so the feeling was still quite obvious. Turning her head, “Jing Wan frequently listens to plays in the manor?”

Jing Wan didn’t understand the reason behind this, but this kind of thing seemingly wasn’t anything worth hiding either. Nodding, “Can’t say frequently, but did listen to a few times after returning from Jiangnan. After all, sometimes, the days are quite boring, so need to look for a bit of something to pass the time.”

The Grand Elder Princess nodded, “And your husband? Does he listen a lot?”

This time, Jing Wan slightly hesitated, “Whenever I listen, he for the most part is always present.”

The Grand Elder Princess meaningfully glanced at Jing Wan, then continued listening to the play, “These plays are also arranged quite well.”
