Thanks to Lu Yuan’s affectionate efforts, Su Liyan’s eyes slowly returned to their normal color.
Su Liyan rested shyly on Lu Yuan’s chest, lifting his arm to look at the wound.
She said, "Dear, he hurt you. My heart aches so much."
Lu Yuan patted Su Liyan’s back and said, "It’s alright, it’s alright..."
Seeing how emotional Su Liyan was, Lu Yuan had no desire to stay any longer.
He gave an order to the Mansion Guard beside him: "All those I defeated this afternoon are eliminated. Reward the last one with ten taels of silver. The rest should prepare for the handover to enter the mansion."
The Mansion Guard clasped his hands and said, "Yes, Young Nephew Master. We will see to it."
The Celestial Master on the stage felt the oppressive aura disappear and slowly got to his feet.
This Celestial Master’s na was Hei Kui. He was a General Banner of the Central Guard under the Southern Town Patrol Departnt and a trusted subordinate of the Central Guard Thousand Households, Jiang Huai.
Hei Kui looked at his colleagues below in disbelief. ’Since when was I this strong?’
Among his colleagues, Hei Kui’s strength was considered bottom-tier.
None of these Hundred Households or Trial Hundred Households had managed to beat Lu Yuan, yet he, a re General Banner, had sohow won.p>After Hei Kui stepped off the stage, Households of a Thousand Jiang Huai didn’t say a word.
Hei Kui’s colleagues, however, were ecstatic. As long as one of them could get into the Zhao Mansion to gather intelligence, it seed the mission could still proceed.
His colleagues subtly took turns patting Hei Kui on the shoulder.
They were all in the sa boat now; they would rise and fall together.
After Lu Yuan finished giving instructions to the Mansion Guard, he slipped out the back door with his arm around Su Liyan’s slender waist.
They returned in a horse-drawn carriage.
A carriage that Lu Yuan had specifically instructed a Mansion Guard to prepare.
On the way back, Lu Yuan took a deep breath, inhaling the sweet scent of his wife.
Just like on their last trip to Yandu, Lu Yuan wanted to once again enjoy the activities one could get up to in a carriage.
But Su Liyan was having none of it. "Dear, stop ssing around. You’re injured, how can you still be thinking about that?"
Lu Yuan took another deep whiff of his wife and said, "It’s nothing. I deliberately gave him an opening."
After speaking, Lu Yuan dove headfirst like a swimr taking a plunge.
’When it cos to size, Aunt Zhao is number one, followed by Aunt Song’s.’
’Su Liyan’s, of course, are average.’
’Only Gu Ziye is in last place.’
’Fortunately, Gu Ziye also drank that Snow Clam, lotus seed, red date, goji berry, ginseng, and papaya chicken soup last ti. The dicinal concoction helped her develop a little.’
’Otherwise, it’s just a matter of personal preference.’
’Speaking of which, Gu Ziye has to thank for that.’
Su Liyan’s were average—not too big, not too small.
But one shouldn’t forget that Su Liyan had just given birth.
This was a ti when one was granted a "plus-size trial card."
So Su Liyan’s figure was even more outstanding at the mont, making her unbelievably desirable.
Seeing that her dear’s mind was completely focused on the two large mounds of flesh on her chest, Su Liyan didn’t press him on why he had intentionally lost to his opponent.p>Su Liyan crossed her arms over her chest, holding her dear’s head.
She held him tightly, so tight he could barely breathe.
’Since he wants to eat, I’ll let him eat his fill all at once.’
’That way, he won’t always be thinking about it and competing with our daughter Bengbeng for his toys.’
Lu Yuan took advantage of the ti it took to return to the mansion, feasting sweetly on his wife.
Lu Yuan lifted his head, wiped his mouth, and said, "Delicious!"
After returning to the mansion, he first went to his room to see Bengbeng.
Bengbeng was having a grand ti playing with her maternal grandmother.
Su Liyan’s mother also doted on Bengbeng imnsely.
As a grandmother, she felt that extra-special affection for her granddaughter that skips a generation.
Lu Yuan picked up Bengbeng and caressed her little cheek.
When Bengbeng saw her mother, she reached out her little hands, her body leaning forward.
Clearly, Bengbeng wanted her mother to hold her.
Seeing Bengbeng like this, Su Liyan had no choice but to take her from her dear’s arms.
She said, "You, you little thing. What’s wrong with letting Daddy hold you for a bit? Don’t you like your daddy?"
Bengbeng babbled, seeming to understand what her mother was saying.
Don’t be fooled by the fact that Bengbeng was only a little over a month old; she understood everything.
Her daddy was competing with her for food and toys, so she didn’t want to pay him any mind.
Lu Yuan looked at his daughter, really wanting to give her a couple of spanks on the bottom.
’She doesn’t give her dad any face at all.’
After checking on the baby, Lu Yuan went to check Aunt Zhao’s pulse.
Aunt Zhao’s due date was only a few days away.
Lu Yuan was brewing a pregnancy-stabilizing dicine for Aunt Zhao.
Normally, with Aunt Zhao’s physique, she wouldn’t need such dicine.
It was just that she was a bit older, placing her in the high-risk category for pregnancy.
The dicinal soup, brewed from a Spiritual Object Lu Yuan had acquired, was extrely effective even for ordinary people.
「That night.」
Inside a Post House in Taiping City, more than twenty people were cramd into a single room.
"Sir, none of us managed to get into the Zhao Mansion. What should we do now?" The n looked at the Households of a Thousand sipping tea before them.
Jiang Huai took a sip of hot tea and said, "What’s there to panic about? Didn’t Xiaohanzi get in?"
The others knew that this ti, they could only rely on Hei Kui.
Their efforts this ti had co to nothing.
Jiang Huai dismissed his subordinates with a few words, keeping only Hei Kui in the room.
"Sir, about today..."
Before Hei Kui could finish, Jiang Huai raised a hand, cutting Xiaohanzi off.
"Xiaohanzi, you have always been my confidant, responsible for monitoring the actions of our Jinyi Guard colleagues."
Hei Kui replied, "Yes, Sir."
Jiang Huai continued, "Regarding today’s events, you need not say more. You just need to follow Lu Yuan’s arrangents and find opportunities to gather intelligence.
In a few days, I will lead the others back to the Imperial Capital to report on our mission. At that ti, I will arrange for soone to be your contact for intelligence matters."
Hei Kui accepted the order and exited the room.
Seeing that his n had all returned to their rooms to rest, Jiang Huai climbed out the window and slipped away from the Post House.
