First-rank palace maid Su Jixiang

Chapter 369 Let Mr. Zhou laugh

"Please speak, Lord Zhou." Su Jixiang said with a faint smile.

She looked calm and composed, but Lushui, who was following her, couldn't help but take a step forward, "Master Zhou, you are also a scholar who knows etiquette. You are staring at our wife like this, isn't that impolite? Isn't that a bit abrupt?"

Only then did Zhou Chengjun realize that his gaze was a little too focused.

He nodded, "Yes, this girl is right." Zhou Chengjun restrained the light in his eyes and clasped his fists towards Su Jixiang. "Madam, please don't blame me."

"Mr. Zhou, just say whatever you want to say," said Su Jixiang.

She raised her hand and waved, indicating that Lushui didn't need to do so.

Lushui glared at Zhou Chengjun fiercely, then stood aside.

"The account book that Madam took out last night must be fake, right?" Zhou Chengjun asked with a smile in his eyes.

"What do you think, Lord Zhou?" Su Jixiang was not annoyed. Her goal had been achieved anyway.

Zhou Chengjun didn't cause trouble for the Marquis' Mansion all night. This morning, he would rather come here to block me than go to find Madam Qu, which means he has given up.

Otherwise, Madam Qu is much more important to this case than herself.

"Madam, you have great acting skills and are very scheming." Zhou Chengjun said with a smile, "I'll toast to you, Madam."

"I have no scheming or acting skills. It's all thanks to Lord Zhou's support." Su Jixiang said with a smile, "There's no need to show respect. Things like account books, when you think they exist, they will definitely exist, just like the testimony and confession that Lord Zhou's men prepared in advance. It just depends on where they are used. Lord Zhou, don't you agree?"

Zhou Chengjun was slightly startled, but still smiled and nodded.

"I have already arrested my subordinate." Zhou Chengjun said with a smile.

Before Su Jixiang could speak again, a deep male voice came from the door, "Fortunately, Lord Zhou stopped in time and controlled the man. Otherwise, Lord Zhou would be in trouble!"

Everyone looked in the direction where the sound came from at the same time.

At the door of the shop, in the dim morning light, a tall figure appeared inside the door. His figure blocked most of the morning light coming in from the door, making the golden morning light cast a faint golden glow around him. His armor shone dimly in the morning light, and his long hair was tied into a ponytail and casually spread behind him, making him look even more unruly.

Although his face was facing away from the light, it was still handsome and clear, with sharper edges and corners, which added a bit of sunshine and firmness to his very handsome appearance.

"My Lord!" Su Jixiang stood up in surprise and went to meet him. "When did you come back? How did you know I was here?"

"I just entered the city." The tall man who suddenly appeared at the door was Wei Ling who had been missing for a few days.

He opened his arms and unreservedly embraced Su Jixiang, who was walking towards him, in his arms. He sniffed her hair fiercely, but the corners of his eyes were slightly raised, looking at Zhou Chengjun with a bit of provocation.

There was a hint of darkness in Zhou Chengjun's eyes, but he still stood up and saluted, "Greetings, Marquis Zhenbei!" He lowered his head respectfully and clasped his hands in front of him.

"Lord Zhou is in a good mood. He invited my wife to have breakfast so early in the morning!" Wei Ling had no intention of letting go of Su Jixiang. Instead, he raised his chin slightly and looked down at Zhou Chengjun.

"I just want to say a few words to my wife." Zhou Chengjun lowered his eyebrows.

He was a man, so he could naturally tell where Wei Ling's sourness and provocation came from.

Therefore, those rumors in the capital are all wrong.

Before he came, there were rumors in the capital that the Marquis of Zhenbei was not very satisfied with his wife Su Jixiang. He often left the mansion and stayed out all night. Although he had no other women, he was obviously not interested in Su Jixiang. Everyone thought that Su Jixiang was not worthy of Wei Ling, and Wei Ling looked down on Su Jixiang because Su Jixiang was just a fire-burning maid in the front palace.

Now it seems that Su Jixiang, the fire-making palace maid, is not simple at all, and Wei Ling also regards Su Jixiang as a treasure.

"Why are you so enthusiastic today, Lord Marquis?" Su Jixiang raised his face slightly and made a face at Wei Ling to remind Wei Ling.

It's just a show! Or did Wei Ling want to make the relationship between them look cold in front of the people in the capital? Now, he started hugging and cuddling right away and picking on her. Isn't it obvious that he is jealous?

Wei Ling's heart was moved. He sighed helplessly and pushed Su Jixiang away. "You are still the wife of the Marquis of Zhenbei! What does it mean to meet a stranger in private?" He pointed at Su Jixiang's nose and shouted! "And what you did last night, I already know. Who told you to act on your own? Why are you, a woman, trying to take the lead?"

"My Lord, please don't be angry." Su Jixiang immediately pretended to be about to cry. "It's all my fault. I thought I was sharing the burden for you, my Lord, so I took the initiative last night!"

"Remember this, from now on, you are not allowed to use the people from my Zhenbei Marquis Mansion privately without my permission!" Wei Ling did not give Su Jixiang any face and got angry at Su Jixiang in front of Zhou Chengjun.

Su Jixiang looked at Wei Ling aggrievedly as if he was being punched, then lowered his head and stepped aside.

Zhou Chengjun was stunned by this change.

Wait! What does that mean?

In the blink of an eye, things have changed again?

So are they a harmonious couple or not?

It seems that Wei Ling really didn't give Su Jixiang any face!

"What are you still standing here for? Go do what you should do! Don't stand here!" Wei Ling shouted when he saw that Su Jixiang had not left yet.

"Yes, I'll take my leave then." Su Jixiang quickly knelt down and bowed, then quickly left Wei Ling's side with Lu Shui, without even looking at Zhou Chengjun, and ran away as if escaping.

"Sir Zhou, I'm making fun of you!" Wei Ling waited for Su Jixiang to leave, then slightly turned aside to block Zhou Chengjun's gaze. "My wife is from a humble background and cannot be accepted by the upper class. Sir Zhou, if you have anything to say, you can just tell me directly. Women are not sensible after all."

The corner of Zhou Chengjun's mouth twitched slightly, and then he bowed and said, "Your Madam is not an ordinary woman!" Who could be such an ordinary person to fabricate the account book matter in such a short time to control him?

"Are you talking about my wife's performance in the prison last night?" Wei Ling asked disdainfully.

"Did the Marquis instruct him?" Zhou Chengjun's mouth twitched this time!

He was a little confused by this couple!

"Hehe." Wei Ling did not answer yes or no, but just sneered ambiguously.
