Chapter 115 I Want to Sleep Here Tonight

Shen Funian walked with a proud and imposing air; anyone who didn't know better would think she was doing something important.

Wen Jiayue really didn't want to go, but she couldn't persuade Shen Funian otherwise, so she had to go with her.

Before they even stepped into the side hall, they heard Hui'er's deliberately soft, delicate voice.

"My lord, it must be lonely for you to dine alone. Why don't I serve you the food?"

Shen Funian stopped and held her breath, waiting for her elder brother's reply.

If he gets seduced, she'll slap him too!

"go out."

Shen Fuhan's cold voice came from inside.

Shen Funian nodded in satisfaction, "That's right."

Hui'er added, "Why did you ask me to leave, my lord? I only wanted to help you serve the dishes."

Shen Funian couldn't stand it any longer. She walked over with great momentum and asked, "Do you want a beautiful woman to keep you company?"

Wen Jiayue whispered, "That's not how you use the phrase 'adding fragrance to the red sleeves'."

"I don't care how it's used," Shen Funian raised her hand and slapped him. "How dare you covet my older brother! Who gave you the guts!"

Hui'er dared not speak her anger and immediately knelt on the ground.

"Third Aunt, please understand. This servant is only here to help the Marquis serve the dishes and has no improper intentions whatsoever."

"Did my older brother ask you to serve the food? Taking it upon yourself is an even bigger offense!"

No sooner had he finished speaking than another crisp slap landed.

Hui'er's face was swollen on both sides, and she was completely afraid of her.

Everyone in the Marquis's mansion says the two of them don't get along, right? Shen Funian must be out of her mind, why is she standing up for Wen Jiayue!

She wept bitterly, her voice choked with sobs, "My lord, my lady, please see the truth! I did nothing wrong!"

Shen Funian snorted: "What are you pretending to be weak for? You even deliberately turned your body to the side and struck a pose, thinking my older brother would pity you? Dream on!"

Snapped--

Another crisp slap.

Wen Jiayue looked at Shen Fuhan with some anxiety.

Throughout the entire process, he remained silent, simply eating his meal quietly, as if what was happening around him had nothing to do with him.

She had no choice but to speak up: "Third sister, that's enough."

Shen Funian flicked her wrist and asked, "Do you want to practice slapping yourself a few times?"

Shen Fuhan then looked up at her, a half-smile on his face.

Wen Jiayue felt a strange mix of emotions and coughed lightly, saying, "No need, I've already learned it."

“If any maid dares to approach my elder brother again, slap her hard,” Shen Fu said. “If anything happens, say it was me.”

Wen Jiayue nodded reluctantly.

Shen Funian found the person on the ground an eyesore and shouted, "Get lost! If you ever come near my brother again, I'll skin you alive!"

Hui'er covered her face and left, sobbing.

Shen Funian then looked at her older brother: "You did quite well this time. If I catch you next time, I won't let you off easily!"

Shen Fuhan glanced at her: "If you have nothing to do, then help your sister-in-law look at the account books."

“That works,” Shen Funian thought for a moment, “How about I stay here tonight? Maybe I’ll run into a maid who’s trying to climb into your bed.”

Shen Fuhan's voice turned cold: "This is not a place for you to act arrogantly. Go back to Chang Le Courtyard."

Shen Funian's arrogance immediately diminished by three points: "Fine, I'll go then. Anyway, I've already finished my business."

She turned and left, afraid that Shen Fuhan would catch up with her.

Wen Jiayue then went to see her off.

"Is this the maid that Grandmother sent?" Shen Funian snorted. "I think I've seen her at Ninghui Hall before."

Wen Jiayue nodded: "Her name is Hui'er."

"What about the other one? I'll play again next time!"

"The other one is Cai'er, but she was forced to come. Third Sister, don't act rashly."

"Forced?" Shen Funian scoffed. "You believe that kind of excuse? It's probably just a lie!"

Wen Jiayue said helplessly, "We have to wait until she shows any signs of it before we talk about it. If we beat her up without even knowing what happened, it will be hard to explain to Grandmother."

“What you said makes sense,” Shen Fu said. “If you can’t bring yourself to do it, I’ll do it for you.”

For some reason, Wen Jiayue felt like a mother hen protecting her chicks, and she chuckled.

Shen Funian asked, puzzled, "What are you laughing at?"

"Nothing, I just think you're quite funny."

"Fun?" Shen Funian was even more puzzled. "Hitting people is fun?"

"Forget it, let's not talk about this anymore."

Wen Jiayue changed the subject: "Actually, you don't need to stand up for me. I know what I'm doing."

She originally intended to let Hui'er seduce Shen Fuhan, but Shen Funian interfered, and now all her efforts have been in vain. She doesn't know if Hui'er will back down.

However, she was also grateful to Shen Funian; the feeling of being protected was truly heartwarming.

“No, you’re too soft-hearted,” Shen Fu said. “I’ll be coming here often these next few days. Even if no one tries to seduce my brother, I still have to come and intimidate them.”

Wen Jiayue said, "What just happened was enough to deter others."

"That's not enough. In short, I will absolutely not let my brother get together with other women, don't worry."

As they arrived at the courtyard gate, Shen Funian waved her hand and said, "Don't see me off, I'll come again tomorrow night."

Wen Jiayue: "..."

She sighed helplessly and had no choice but to turn back.

Back in her bedroom, after washing up, she got into bed and continued reading her travelogue.

After flipping through a few pages, Shen Fuhan entered.

He glanced at the book in her hand and asked, "Why aren't you looking at the one I gave you?"

Wen Jiayue didn't even look up: "I haven't finished reading this one yet."

As soon as she finished speaking, Shen Fuhan came over and sat down on the edge of the bed to watch with her.

Alarm bells rang in Wen Jiayue's mind as she asked, "Hasn't the Marquis already seen it?"

As she spoke, she moved to the side, and Shen Fuhan took the opportunity to lift the blanket and sit down.

"Watch it again."

Wen Jiayue frowned and said, "You can leave now."

Shen Fuhan looked at her and said in a deep voice, "I want to sleep here tonight."

Wen Jiayue immediately said, "If Your Excellency wishes to consummate the marriage, there are only maids outside. What do you think of Hui'er? How about..."

Before she could finish speaking, Shen Fuhan pinched her chin and kissed her.
