Dugu Jingyao is reborn as Li Chu's beloved

Chapter 167 After Exercise

Chu Xiaoyi and Wei Jiayan were immersed in the incomparable joy, their hearts filled with unprecedented satisfaction. Their faces were filled with happy smiles, and their mood became more comfortable and happy.

They lay in bed, leaning on each other, enjoying this moment of peace and warmth, as if time had stopped. However, time passed quickly, and as dinner time approached, the children were about to return home. The couple knew they could no longer linger in bed, so they slowly got up and prepared to change.

Having just experienced a passionate lovemaking, Wei Jiayan's once delicate hair was now a little disheveled and needed to be combed again. When she was almost dressed, she called out softly, "Biluo, come here!" Her voice was gentle and melodious, yet it revealed a hint of urgency.

Hearing this, Biluo understood what was going on. She must have been having a passionate moment with the Marquis and his wife, and now needed her help to tidy up their appearance. She tiptoed to the door, raised her hand and knocked gently. After hearing a response from inside, she cautiously opened the door and slipped into the room.

Before Biluo could ask, Wei Jiayan took the initiative to say, "Biluo, I accidentally messed up my hair just now. Please help me to tidy it up again." Her tone was gentle, with a hint of coquettishness.

Biluo quickly agreed, stepped forward to help Wei Jiayan up, and moved towards the dressing table.

Unexpectedly, perhaps because she hadn't done such strenuous exercise in a while, Wei Jiayan felt her legs go weak and she stumbled and nearly fell to the ground. Fortunately, Biluo was quick to catch Wei Jiayan and prevent this embarrassing accident.

Chu Xiaoyi's lips curled up slightly, his eyes falling on Wei Jiayan, whose legs were weak and delicate, and he couldn't help but chuckle. He thought to himself, "I'm so powerful!" Thinking of this, a look of complacency that was hard to conceal appeared on his face.

Then, Chu Xiaoyi said with a smile on his face, "Madam, do you need me to carry you to the dressing table myself?" There was a hint of joking in his words.

However, Wei Jiayan was now a completely different person. She glared at Chu Xiaoyi fiercely, seemingly oblivious to his teasing. She also seemed intent on maintaining distance, completely devoid of her previous enthusiasm and initiative. It was as if the person who had just experienced such a passionate and passionate moment with Chu Xiaoyi wasn't her.

Seeing this, Chu Xiaoyi sighed inwardly: "What a woman who changes her attitude faster than turning the pages of a book!" But he did not get angry. After all, there were maids present at the moment. As the wife of the Marquis, it was natural for Wei Jiayan to pay some attention to her face and dignity.

With Biluo's support, Wei Jiayan slowly walked to the dressing table and sat down. Seeing this, Chu Xiaoyi knew that there was no room for him to intervene here, so he said, "In that case, you can take your time to dress up. I'm going to go out for a stroll." After that, he turned and left, leaving Wei Jiayan sitting alone in front of the mirror.

Wei Jiayan didn't even raise her eyelids to Chu Xiaoyi's departure, but simply nodded nonchalantly to indicate her agreement. She was really tired from the intense exercise just now, so she had no time to think about anything else. She just wanted to fix her makeup as soon as possible.

Biluo moved as quickly as a light breeze. Her nimble fingers were like dancing butterflies. In the blink of an eye, she had combed Wei Jiayan's originally slightly messy hair into neat and precise arrangements.

Then, she meticulously applied exquisite makeup to Wei Jiayan, handling every detail just right, as if she were carving a precious work of art. After everything was tidied up, Biluo said softly, "Madam, everything is done!"

Because Wei Jiayan felt a little tired from the exercise just now, she kept her eyes closed from beginning to end, resting quietly to recuperate.

Hearing Biluo's words at this moment, Wei Jiayan slowly opened her eyes, stared at her reflection in the mirror, and the corners of her mouth rose slightly to reveal a satisfied smile.

Immediately afterwards, Wei Jiayan reached out and gently opened the exquisite jewelry box placed beside her. She took out an extremely gorgeous eight-treasure glazed hairpin from it, held it above Biluo's head, gestured a few times, and said, "Well, you did an excellent job. You must not reveal a single word of what happened today. This eight-treasure glazed hairpin is just a reward for you!"

Biluo naturally understood that this eight-treasure glazed hairpin might be the so-called "hush money." However, she showed no hesitation or refusal. Instead, she swiftly accepted the reward and bowed to Wei Jiayan, thanking her: "Thank you, Madam, for your gift!" After that, Biluo carefully put the priceless eight-treasure glazed hairpin away.

Not long after, the children who had been playing outside returned home happily. At the same time, the Crown Princess sent Nanny Xu to deliver a message, saying that it was time for dinner and inviting everyone to enjoy a sumptuous meal together.

Wei Jiayan agreed, and the family followed Aunt Xu to Zhaoyang Palace...

On the other side, naturally, someone also went to invite Dugu Xin's family and Li Chu's three siblings.

Soon everyone gathered in Zhaoyang Hall and began to enjoy dinner...
