"Surong, try this, how does it taste?" Feng Zhan helped Qi Surong pick up the food and said, "Eat, don't be hungry."
Qi Surong looked at Mrs. Zhang who was sitting on the other side, who looked at her apologetically.
Both of them are ignorant of food, but they don't know how to deal with it.
"Mrs. Zhang, you can eat too. After dinner, I will accompany you to see your child." Qi Surong looked at Feng Zhan, "Is that okay?"
"Of course." Feng Zhan agreed with a smile.
Mrs. Zhang then raised her chopsticks.
The only voice at the dinner table was Feng Zhan's voice, and the atmosphere was very strange.
After eating, Qi Surong asked: "Where is the child?"
"Don't worry, I've asked the wet nurse to hold her for a while." Feng Zhan made Qi Surong a cup of tea.
Qi Surong didn't refuse, picked up the cup and tasted it briefly before leaving. Now she was calmer and thinking about countermeasures secretly.
Mrs. Zhang, however, was restless and looked out the door frequently.
Not long after, a baby's cry came from outside the door, from far to near.
Mrs. Zhang stood up immediately and saw the wet nurse appearing at the door holding the child. She couldn't help but be overjoyed. She walked over quickly, took the child and comforted her gently.
Qi Surong stepped forward, looked at the baby in her arms, and said with a smile: "It's full of crying. Has it been named yet?"
"The nickname is 'Zhicheng' and the nickname is 'Kuku'." Mrs. Zhang replied.
"Quiet and far-reaching, all your wishes come true, a good name." Qi Surong took out a handkerchief and wiped the little baby's face, "Kunku, I am your godmother, remember it, I'm here to give you a little gadget."
She took a small bell from her waist and waved it in front of him. The little baby sniffled, gradually stopped crying, and looked at the bell in Qi Surong's hand with her black pearl-like eyes.
Feng Zhan stood aside and smiled at Qi Surong's gentle and lovely look when teasing the child. She would definitely be a good mother in the future.
"Mrs. Zhang, the child may be hungry. Please take him to eat something." Feng Zhan said.
Mrs. Zhang looked at Qi Surong, who nodded to her and gave her a reassuring look.
Mrs. Zhang blessed the two of them and retreated slowly.
"Su Rong, our children will be so cute in the future, right?" Feng Zhan held her hand and smiled.
Qi Surong took a step back and said distantly: "Brother Feng, it's impossible for you and me to be together."
"Surong, why do you always reject me? Don't you want to be my wife?"
"I don't want to." Qi Surong said firmly, "I, Qi Surong, will only be the wife of one man in my life, and that is Gu Jinyun."
Feng Zhan's eyes were filled with anger: "Because he is your first man?"
"Because I like him." Qi Surong said frankly, "I have always liked him."
"No, I don't believe it!" Feng Zhan said angrily, "You just said that to make me give up!"
"Feng Zhan, have I personally said that I like you?"
Feng Zhan was stunned.
Qi Surong added: "I don't want you to continue to misunderstand me. To Gu Jinyun, it's love; to you, it's kindness. I make the distinction very clearly."
Feng Zhan looked in disbelief.
"Brother Feng, you actually don't understand me. I, Qi Surong, will not give up my life because of my reputation. If I liked you, I would not compromise with Mrs. Feng when I was in the other courtyard. In order to stay with him, I will fight with reason no matter what and work with him to find a way to break through the shackles. Unless my presence will bring danger to him and his family."
When she spoke, the look in her eyes was so dazzling, but it was not for him. Feng Zhan felt something broken in his chest, and he was numb with pain.
It turned out that she had never liked him at all, it was all his misunderstanding. He had misunderstood... Shame, anger, embarrassment, pain, bewilderment, confusion... All kinds of emotions were intertwined, making him unable to think.
Feng Zhan's eyes were lonely, and he seemed to have lost his strength and soul.
Qi Surong couldn't bear it. Feng Zhan was affectionate and righteous to her, but she had to cruelly cut him off. When interruptions continue, his mind will become confused.
"Brother Feng, I'm sorry, and thank you for taking care of me all the time." Qi Surong saluted him, "I hope that when we meet again in the future, we can put aside our grudges and treat each other with peace of mind. Farewell Surong."
Qi Surong turned around and walked out. As soon as one foot stepped out of the threshold, she heard Feng Zhan's faint voice coming from behind: "You just said, what will happen if your presence brings danger to him and his family?"
Qi Surong was shocked and turned to look at him.
Feng Zhan stared into her eyes expressionlessly: "People can never fight against officials. Do you think he, a small businessman, can protect you?"
"Brother Feng?" A trace of doubt flashed across Qi Surong's face. Something seemed wrong with the man in front of him.
Feng Zhan walked towards her step by step: "I have already fully investigated the Gu family's business in the capital. It will be easy for me to bring them down."
"You won't. The Brother Feng I know is a magnanimous gentleman."
"Ha." Feng Zhan said in a low voice, "When you turned around just now, 'Gentleman Feng Zhan' ceased to exist."
He walked up to her and said slightly, "Surong, I want to see what sacrifices you are willing to make for Gu Jinyun?"
"What do you mean?" Qi Surong's heart trembled slightly.
"One, marry Gu Jinyun, and then have a secret affair with me. If I want it, you can't refuse; two," Feng Zhan stretched out two fingers, "marry me, and we will be done with Gu Jinyun; three, don't marry anyone." , but you must use your body to exchange for the safety of your family."
Qi Surong took a breath and looked at Feng Zhan in disbelief.
"How about it? Which path do you choose?" Feng Zhan said in a cold tone, "Or should you let me help you choose?"
"I don't want to choose any path." Qi Surong said seriously, "Feng Zhan, don't do something regrettable because of impulse."
"I'm very calm now. I've never been so calm." Feng Zhan's eyes were empty, without any emotion.
how so? Qi Surong frowned, feeling as if the man in front of her had become another person.
"The time is up, I'll choose for you." Feng Zhan suddenly reached out and picked up Qi Surong, and said while walking towards the inner room, "Just choose the third option."
"Let me go, let me go!" Qi Surong was shocked and struggled to shout, "Come, help!"
Ping'er didn't know where he went, and he was probably tripped up by Feng Zhan's people, but what about the other people in this manor
Feng Zhan seemed to know what she was thinking, and replied: "This is a manor just bought, and Mrs. Zhang has not yet hired new maids and servants."
"Brother Feng, don't do this." Qi Surong begged, "You and I are both engaged. If such an immoral thing becomes known, our family's reputation will be tarnished."
"Then don't let outsiders know." Feng Zhan kicked open the door, walked straight into the inner room, put Qi Surong on the bed, put his hands on her sides, and said with a smile, "We come and go quietly."
Qi Surong shook his head: "No, you are not Feng Zhan. Feng Zhan can't be so mean!"
Feng Zhan raised his head and laughed: "Hahaha, didn't I tell you earlier? When you turned around just now, 'Gentleman Feng Zhan' no longer existed, and in its place was me, 'Evil Man Feng Zhan'."
The last four words were whispered softly into Qi Surong's ears, with a tone as gentle as a lover's.
Qi Surong felt a chill running down her spine. In her last life, she had heard her master say that some people's personalities would split and form several completely different personalities due to some reasons. In the past, no matter how angry Feng Zhan was, he would never make people feel scared. But the person in front of him exudes an air of evil and sycophancy from the inside out, which makes people feel chilly.
"Are you still distracted at this time?" Feng Zhan licked Qi Surong's earlobe and untied her belt with his hands.
"You smell so good." He sniffed at her neck, "Your heartbeat is also very fast."
With a "hiss" sound, Feng Zhan vigorously pulled open her coat, revealing the white middle coat underneath.
Qi Surong finally recovered from the shock and struggled desperately: "Asshole, let me go!"
"Scream louder, I like it very much." A strange laugh came from Feng Zhan's throat, and his eyes were full of uncontrollable excitement.
Qi Surong was really scared. This was the first time someone had made her so scared. Her body was so weak that she could only let the man ravage her body.
"Don't... don't..." The place where the man touched felt a dull pain as if it had been burned.
Jinyun, save me! Qi Surong looked out the window and screamed in despair.
"My lord, my lord!" At this moment, a servant shouted anxiously from outside the door, "I just received a message from my servant. I ask you to return home quickly and discuss urgent matters."
"What's the emergency?" Feng Zhan asked impatiently.
"I don't know the specific situation, but the person who sent the message said it is extremely urgent. Please come back as soon as possible."
Feng Zhan sneered boredly and looked at Qi Surong with a look of regret: "What a pity, Surong, I can only wait until next time to continue."
He came closer and said: "Remember, our three paths, don't get sidetracked."
After saying that, he bit her neck again, then stood up, put on clothes neatly, and left leisurely.
Qi Surong breathed a long sigh of relief, and then wiped her lips and every place on her body that he had touched with disgust, almost scratching her skin.
He struggled to hold himself up, his trembling arms arranged the messy clothes on his body, trying to hold back the shame and anger in his heart.
"Surong." The man's unique low hoarse voice suddenly sounded in the room, and Qi Surong's face turned pale in fright. Looking up, it was Gu Jinyun.
She looked at him helplessly, her body stiff.
Gu Jinyun came over and took her into his arms: "It's okay, he's gone."
Qi Surong's tears could no longer be suppressed. She reached out and grabbed Gu Jinyun's clothes, crying silently.
Gu Jinyun hugged her silently, with a hint of murderous intent flashing in his eyes.
If Mrs. Zhang hadn't sent someone to report the news this time, or if he had come a step too late, Su Rong would have been insulted by that man. He secretly hated himself for not moving fast enough to frighten her so much.
Su Rong, don't worry, I will never let that man hurt you again! Gu Jinyun secretly swore.
On the way home, Qi Surong huddled in Gu Jinyun's arms, hugging his waist tightly and sucking in the warmth from his body.
Seeing that he was about to arrive at Qi's house, Gu Jinyun looked at Qi Surong, who was sleeping in his arms, and said to the coachman: "Stop the carriage here."
The driver stopped the carriage, and Gu Jinyun quietly held Qi Surong in his arms and sat in the carriage until dusk.
"Rong, we're home." Gu Jinyun didn't wake her up until it was almost nightfall.
Qi Surong reluctantly opened her eyes, rubbed herself in his arms, and said lazily: "Jinyun, why don't you just take me to your house?"
A smile flashed in Gu Jinyun's eyes: "I really want to, but if I do this, my father-in-law will definitely break my legs."
Qi Surong also smiled, and then said calmly: "Jinyun, you have to be careful about Feng Zhan, he has become... a bit scary."
"Don't worry, I have my own plans." Gu Jinyun patted her back and said, "Go back. I'll wait until the candles in your room are lit before leaving."
"Yes." Qi Surong stepped away from his arms, stood up and got out of the carriage.
Gu Jinyun watched her and Heping'er enter Qi's house, then climbed up the wall and looked at Su Rong's boudoir.
"Miss, the maid will light a lamp for you."
"No, wait a moment." Qi Surong walked to the window and looked at the figure on the wall in the darkness of the room. It wasn't until the darkness fell that he ordered: "Ping'er, light the lamp."
