Chapter 133 Always with you
Chapter 133 Always with you
For a moment, both of them were silent.
Remembering something, Wen Jiayue showed him the letter that Shen Funian had sent.
"This is a letter from my third sister, please take a look, my lord."
Shen Fuhan took it and read it quickly.
Wen Jiayue asked, "What does the Marquis think?"
"What do you mean, 'what do you think'?" Shen Fuhan folded the letter. "Grandmother wants to raise Zhaozhao?"
Wen Jiayue nodded.
In fact, she had already experienced it once in her previous life. When the old lady suggested raising Zhaozhao in Ninghui Hall, she naturally agreed without hesitation.
At that time, Zhao Zhao had just turned two years old. Fearing that Zhao Zhao would not behave well, she gave her a special instruction, telling her daughter to be a good girl and listen to her great-grandmother.
But no one expected that the old lady would allow Yao'er to bully Zhao Zhao.
Zhao Zhao always had bruises and bumps on her body, and she always thought it was from falling while playing. She never imagined that the old lady would treat her great-granddaughter like this.
Shen Fuhan knew nothing about any of these things.
But in this lifetime, she wanted him to be involved in everything concerning Zhao Zhao.
Shen Fuhan pondered for a moment before speaking: "Grandmother is getting old. If she wants the child to be by her side often, she can raise Yao'er."
Upon hearing the first half of his sentence, Wen Jiayue thought he would say he would send Zhaozhao to Ninghui Hall, and her heart began to race.
She breathed a sigh of relief when she realized that she had sent Yao'er there instead.
The little devil won't let himself suffer a loss; Ninghui Hall will definitely be thrown into chaos.
Thinking of this scene, Wen Jiayue felt like laughing.
"However," Shen Fuhan asked in a low voice, "were you in such a hurry to return to the capital just now because Zhaozhao was sick?"
Wen Jiayue suppressed her smile, pursed her lips, and nodded.
Although she knew that Zhao Zhao's cold had healed, she still felt a little sad because she couldn't be by her daughter's side.
Thinking of this, Wen Jiayue couldn't help but ask, "My lord, can't we really leave ahead of time?"
“No,” Shen Fuhan insisted, “I have things to do tomorrow.”
Wen Jiayue was stunned: "But aren't we going to the temple tomorrow?"
After a moment of silence, Shen Fuhan finally revealed something: "The person I'm looking for might be in the temple."
Wen Jiayue simply didn't know what to say.
When he came back just now, didn't he say that he would follow her arrangements for tomorrow? I didn't expect that the trip to the temple was something he had planned long ago.
Why did he even ask her? It was completely unnecessary.
Wen Jiayue was a little speechless, but couldn't help asking, "Is it safe in the temple? What if you suddenly leave?"
The shadow cast on her from her past life was too heavy, and even though it wasn't the same temple, she was still somewhat afraid of repeating the same mistakes.
Shen Fuhan paused for a moment, then cautiously said, "Possibly."
“Then I won’t go,” Wen Jiayue said immediately. “I’ll stay at the manor and keep an eye on the servants packing their luggage.”
"Why?"
"I..." Wen Jiayue bit her lip, but couldn't find the words to explain.
She originally wanted to say, "I want you to stay with me forever," but the words stuck in her throat and she couldn't say them.
She no longer felt the same attraction to Shen Fuhan as she had in her past life. Although she knew she had no choice but to say it, she still felt awkward.
She retorted in a defiant manner, "Anyway, if you're not with me the whole time, I'm not going."
These words were spoken so capriciously; they didn't sound like something she would say at all.
Shen Fuhan was momentarily stunned, but the corners of his lips involuntarily curled up.
He nodded and said, "I promise you."
Wen Jiayue frowned and asked, "Agree to what?"
When will he be able to be clearer about what he's saying? Does he agree to let her stay in the mansion or to stay by her side when she goes to the temple?
Shen Fuhan looked at her and said in a deep voice, "I'll always be with you."
His voice was clear and melodious, and his tone was so serious that my heart skipped a beat.
Wen Jiayue was somewhat at a loss for words, so she vaguely replied with an "okay" and changed the subject.
"It's almost lunchtime. Would you like to have lunch first, or take a bath first, my lord?"
Shen Fuhan returned early today, before noon.
Shen Fuhan chose the latter, and Wen Jiayue then left the bedroom to have someone fetch water.
Since no servants were brought this time, the guards were used as servants. They were strong and could handle these physical tasks better than the servants.
Ling He took the lead and immediately brought over two buckets of hot water.
These past few days, Wen Jiayue and he have gotten along very well, and she's even starting to like him.
Who wouldn't like a loyal and highly efficient bodyguard?
Unable to enter the bedroom for the time being, Wen Jiayue stood on the veranda and chatted with him.
"Is Guard Ling married?"
Ling He answered methodically, "No."
“That makes sense,” Wen Jiayue said with a smile. “Your personality doesn’t seem like that of someone who has been married before.”
Ling He pondered for a moment and said, "What the lady said is similar to what the marquis said."
Wen Jiayue was taken aback for a moment, then asked, "What did you say?"
Ling He repeated, "With your personality, you really don't seem like someone who has ever been married."
Wen Jiayue: "...What I mean is, what did the Marquis say?"
Ling He then said, "No wonder..."
Wen Jiayue had been waiting for him to continue, but seeing that he hadn't spoken for a while, she asked in confusion, "And then? You forgot?"
"No, that's all the Marquis said."
Wen Jiayue couldn't help but rub her forehead. How could this be? Was there any necessary connection between what she and Shen Fuhan said?
She couldn't help but feel sorry for the girl who was going to marry Ling He and spend her whole life with a man who couldn't even speak properly.
After a pause, she suddenly realized that Shen Fuhan seemed to be no less formidable.
It turned out that she was the one who was pitiful. Wen Jiayue sighed softly.
In order to prevent other girls from following in her footsteps, Wen Jiayue spoke up with a meaningful tone to dissuade her.
"Guard Ling, you'd better not get married in the future."
“That is exactly what I was thinking,” Ling He said. “I only want to protect the Marquis, and I have never thought of anything else.”
Wen Jiayue said with relief, "Very good, very good."
In her previous life, she only had a vague impression of Ling He and did not have much contact with him.
I vaguely remember that he did not get married, and just as he said, he always protected Shen Fuhan.
Ling He suddenly spoke up: "But the Marquis said last time that I should get married as soon as possible, but then he changed his mind."
Wen Jiayue asked curiously, "Why?"
How could someone like Shen Fuhan interfere in other people's marriages?
Just as Ling He was about to speak, Shen Fuhan's voice suddenly came from the bedroom.
"Moon, come here for a moment."
Wen Jiayue panicked slightly. Why did he want her to go in?
She decided to pretend she hadn't heard and looked at Ling He with a calm expression.
"Why are not you talking?"
Ling He said, "Madam, the Marquis just said that you are welcome to come in."
Wen Jiayue: "..."
She pursed her lips and tried to cover it up, saying, "Really? I didn't hear you. You must have misheard."
Ling He replied without hesitation, "I am a martial artist and can hear everything clearly. Your hearing is naturally not as good as mine."
Wen Jiayue took a deep breath, but before she could speak, Ling He had already pushed open the door.
"Ma'am, please come in."
