The Marquis Is Innocent

Xiao Qiao slowly closed her eyes.

Wei Shao stayed asleep with her at first. After a long time, he opened his eyes and looked down at her.

Xiao Qiao’s eyes were closed with her eyelashes lowered. Her breathing was even, and she was in a deep sleep.

After pondering, Wei Shao slowly let go of her and gently got out of bed. He tucked her in the blanket again, then turned around to get dressed.

When he finished dressing and bent down to put on his boots, he heard a delicate and soft voice behind him: “It’s getting dark. Where are you going, Husband?”

Wei Shao paused, looked back, and saw Xiao Qiao on the bed opened her eyes and sat up slowly. He coughed dryly and turned towards her, smiling and saying. “Nothing. It’s just that I suddenly remembered something and wanted to ask Mr. Jia about it. Did I wake you up?”

Without waiting for her answer, Wei Shao stomped off the one boot he had just put on, lay down on his side, brought her back to the pillow, and said softly, “It’s my fault. I’ll sleep with you again.”

Xiao Qiao shrank into his arms, quietly closed her eyes for a moment, but suddenly opened them again.

Wei Shao seemed to feel it and touched her hair. Seeing her tilting her head to look at him, he said, “You couldn’t sleep?”

“Husband is hiding something from me.” Xiao Qiao said in an absolute tone.

Wei Shao raised his eyebrows: “What is there to hide from you? Don’t worry about it.” He wrapped her in his arms again.

Xiao Qiao shook her head and broke away: “Husband must be hiding something from me. I can feel it ……”

She hesitated, relying on her sixth sense: “Could it be that it’s about the Chen Rui that Husband mentioned earlier?”

As soon as Wei Shao heard the word Chen Rui, his eyes twitched while darkness swept across the bottom of his eyes.

Xiao Qiao has been with him for more than a year. She immediately caught the subtle change in his expression and felt a sense of hostility. She reached out and nudged his arm: “Why is Husband not speaking? Could it be that I have been right?”

Wei Shao stopped halfway through his words for fear of scaring her.

When Xiao Qiao was asleep, he thought he had been in the inner courtyard since he returned last night. He had not gone out even a single step. So he wanted to take advantage of her sleep to go out and do it himself.

He didn’t want her to know about this kind of thing.

At this moment, she forced him to answer. He said lightly: “That bastard once acted against you. He was lucky to survive. This time he made you suffer such a shock. It is too cheap to let him die just like that. I want to pick up the corpse and slash him again. Without this, I can’t relieve your anger, and I can’t calm my heart.”

Xiao Qiao was shocked and widened her eyes at him to confirm he was not joking. She shook her head in panic: “Husband, no!”

Wei Shao’s eyes looked straight at her, not hiding his slight displeasure at being stopped by her: “You can’t tolerate it? I heard Mr. Jia say that you specifically instructed him to be buried that day.”

Xiao Qiao sat up, embracing the blanket in front of her chest, her eyes looking at Wei Shao: “It is true that I asked Mr. Lin to bury him in a coffin. There is no ulterior motive. Although this person disgusted me, he has died after all. It is to end his life’s karma to get revenge. He died in front of me, I can certainly order people to expose his body in the wilderness, but such disposal can not increase my peace of mind. Therefore, I treat him like an ordinary person and bury him in the ground. It’s just a small thing to do. Why not do it?”

Wei Shao still looked at her with the same eyes. But the hint of displeasure in his gaze faded.

“I disagree if you want to lift him out again. Since he is in the ground, why not let him be in his place? If you lift him out now, you can vent your anger for a while. But you ask yourself, even if you slashed him million times, could you eliminate your hatred for him?”

Wei Shao remained silent.

Xiao Qiao leaned towards him, wrapped her arms around his waist, her face pressed against the nape of his pulsating neck, and said softly, “Besides, Man Man is afraid. I don’t want my Husband to do such a terrible thing.”

The anger that burst in Wei Shao’s heart since he returned last night when he learned the details slowly receding inch by inch amid her soft words.

When Xiao Qiao gently leaned in his arms to hug him and said: ‘Man Man is afraid and does not want my Husband to do such a terrible thing,’ even though Wei Shao did not feel that this thing was terrible, he actually felt sorry.

He wrapped his arms around her, kissed her forehead comfortingly, and whispered, “I’ll listen to Man Man. Don’t bother with that bastard.”
