Chapter 222 A perfect strategy
The next morning, after sending Shen Xinglin to the examination room, Shen Jingxuan and her grandparents returned to Fufeng Courtyard.
"Grandfather, I want to leave the house for a few days. Lin'er may not be able to come back in time. Please help me give this letter to him."
Shen Jingxuan originally wanted to hand it to Shen Xinglin personally, but when she thought about the fact that he had to take an imperial examination today and was afraid of affecting him, she gave up the idea.
Mr. Shen frowned slightly: "Do you want to go far away?"
"Well, I don't know how long it will take." Shen Jingxuan said.
Seeing that Shen Jingxuan didn't want to talk about it, Mr. Shen said, "Be careful when you go out. I will talk to Lin'er about this."
Mr. Shen couldn't help but feel a little worried.
Given Shen Xinglin's dependence on Shen Jingxuan, if Shen Jingxuan didn't pick him up, he would definitely be disappointed, right?
Shen Jingxuan also knew that Shen Xinglin would definitely be unhappy, but now she couldn't care less.
After talking to Mr. Shen, Shen Jingxuan returned to Yuxuan Courtyard, packed some clothes, and left the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion alone.
She first went to the Regent's Palace to look for Ling Feng, and after asking about the location of the Chen Mansion, she turned and left.
Shen Jingxuan went to a car rental company to rent a carriage. After leaving the city gate, she headed towards Ningcheng.
The carriage drove all the way until the sky gradually darkened. After Shen Jingxuan parked the carriage in a safe place, she slipped into the space.
Having not seen Shen Jingxuan for a whole day, Xie Lingxiao paced back and forth in the room anxiously.
Suddenly seeing the person appear in front of him, he walked towards her quickly.
When he came in front of Shen Jingxuan, he suddenly stopped.
Shen Jingxuan looked pale and haggard, and her clothes were already dirty beyond recognition.
Xie Lingxiao asked anxiously: "Xuan'er, what's wrong with you? What happened?"
Seeing Shen Jingxuan's embarrassed appearance, Xie Lingxiao showed worry.
"It's okay, I'm just a little tired." Shen Jingxuan said and walked towards the room.
She fell on the bed, not caring about the dirt on her clothes.
She hadn't traveled far for a long time, and now she felt a little overwhelmed after just a day's journey.
Xie Lingxiao sat down beside the bed: "What did you do?"
He didn't quite believe that Shen Jingxuan was just tired.
If it is true as she said, what did she do to make her so tired now?
Hearing Shen Jingxuan's even breathing, he swallowed the words that were about to come out of his mouth.
Just let her sleep, and we'll deal with everything after she wakes up.
Xie Lingxiao looked at Shen Jingxuan quietly for a long time, and seeing that she was sleeping soundly, he couldn't bear to disturb her.
He stood up and left the room.
Thinking that Shen Jingxuan was so tired that she probably didn't even have time to eat, Xie Lingxiao suddenly felt distressed.
He turned and went to the kitchen and started busying himself there.
Perhaps it was because she hadn’t slept well these past few days because she saw Xie Lingxiao’s sad and dilemma-filled face, so Shen Jingxuan slept very well this time.
When she woke up, Xie Lingxiao was still sitting beside her.
Seeing her open her eyes, Xie Lingxiao tucked her hair behind her ears: "Are you hungry? Get up and eat?"
Seeing the worried look on his face, Shen Jingxuan felt a little warm in her heart.
As long as he keeps me in his heart all the time, it seems that everything I do for him is worth it.
Shen Jingxuan stretched out her hands: "Ah Xiao, carry me."
Xie Lingxiao felt soft inside when he saw her acting coquettishly.
With her around, nothing else really matters.
He would be content to let them continue like this.
"Okay." Xie Lingxiao carried Shen Jingxuan to the dining room.
He did not put Shen Jingxuan down, but held her in his arms and put the food into her mouth one bite at a time.
Shen Jingxuan nestled in his arms, eating with a smile on her face.
After finishing his bowl of rice, Xie Lingxiao asked, "Eat some more?"
"You eat, I'm full."
Seeing that she didn't want to eat anymore, Xie Lingxiao started eating with Shen Jingxuan's bowl and chopsticks.
After the two of them finished their meal, Shen Jingxuan got up and walked to the bathroom door.
She stood there pacing back and forth, not knowing what to do for a moment.
After a day's journey, she felt extremely uncomfortable.
But Xie Lingxiao was here, and it was not convenient for her to go into the bathroom to wash.
Seeing her walking there non-stop, Xie Lingxiao looked puzzled: "Xuan'er, what are you doing?"
"I... am fine." Shen Jingxuan hesitated.
What should she say?
If she went to wash, Xie Lingxiao would definitely hear the sound outside.
Thinking of this, Shen Jingxuan's face turned red.
Looking at Shen Jingxuan's appearance, Xie Lingxiao knew what she was thinking.
But he didn't quite understand.
Even if it is inconvenient here, why doesn't Shen Jingxuan go back to the room to wash?
"Go in and take a shower. I won't listen." Xie Lingxiao said.
Hearing his words, Shen Jingxuan suddenly looked up at him.
Seeing that her pretty face was already as ripe as a fruit, Xie Lingxiao laughed out loud: "Don't be embarrassed in front of your husband."
husband?
Shen Jingxuan's pretty face flushed instantly, and she pushed Xie Lingxiao out of the room.
After locking the door, Shen Jingxuan patted her cheek.
Xie Lingxiao's words "husband" not only made her cheeks blush, but also made her heart beat wildly.
Shen Jingxuan quickly went to the bathroom, took off her clothes and started to wash.
The slightly cool water poured down from the top of her head and flowed through her whole body, and Shen Jingxuan was able to relieve the discomfort she had just felt.
Xie Lingxiao couldn't help but click his tongue as he looked at the yard in front of him.
What a pity, he shouldn't have said so much just now.
If he hadn't said that word "husband" more, he would still have a chance to stay in the room.
Now he could only wait in the yard, waiting for Shen Jingxuan to finish showering and open the door for him.
Half a minute later, Shen Jingxuan finished washing and changed into clean clothes, and finally opened the door.
The moment the door opened, Shen Jingxuan disappeared in front of it.
Xie Lingxiao followed her footsteps into the room and looked at Shen Jingxuan lying on the bed in confusion.
If it were a normal day, Shen Jingxuan would have gone back to her room to rest. Why was she lying in bed again today?
Although he had many doubts in his mind, Xie Lingxiao did not ask.
He went to the bathroom, washed himself, and lay down next to Shen Jingxuan.
When he stretched out his long arm and then retracted it, Shen Jingxuan was already in his arms.
"Aren't you going back to your room tonight?" Xie Lingxiao's voice sounded in his ears.
Shen Jingxuan's face had already turned red with embarrassment.
She covered her head with the quilt and nodded slightly.
If she hadn't been in a hurry and missed the inn, she would never have entered the space to fight with Xie Lingxiao for the bed.
Xie Lingxiao's hand around her tightened slightly.
He turned Shen Jingxuan's body around and looked down at the person in his arms.
Seeing her pretty face blushing and full of shyness, Xie Lingxiao felt a little itchy in his heart.
He couldn't help but kiss Shen Jingxuan's lips, rolling and sucking...
Shen Jingxuan put her arms around Xie Lingxiao's neck and the kiss gradually deepened.
After a long time, Xie Lingxiao suppressed the impulse in his heart and stopped.
He hugged Shen Jingxuan tightly again: "Go to sleep."
"Yeah." Shen Jingxuan responded softly.
After a tiring day, Shen Jingxuan fell into a deep sleep in a short while.
Looking at Shen Jingxuan who fell asleep so quickly, Xie Lingxiao felt depressed.
This heartless little thing, she was sleeping soundly, but he could do nothing with his beauty in his arms.
I'm afraid I won't be able to sleep tonight.
Xie Lingxiao suffered a lot that night, and he didn't fall into a deep sleep until the sky gradually brightened.
When he woke up, Shen Jingxuan was no longer in the room.
