His face came over as he took a deep breath of the fragrance of her hair. His nose brushed against the soft earlobe and asked softly.

Xiao Qiao glanced at him.

Liu Yan suddenly came out of nowhere to participate in Xuzhou’s chaos. Since Yang Xin had surrendered to Wei Shao, Xiao Qiao did not believe that Wei Shao was unaware of this. But he acted as if nothing had happened in front of her, not mentioning a word.

Xiao Qiao leaned into his chest. “Does husband remember Liu Yan, the Langya Prince?” She suddenly asked.

Wei Shao rubbed his ears against hers, and his palms went up into her undergarment, his fingers picking at the tiny clothes.

Hearing this, he gave a slight pause but did not stop, continuing to pick away the thin piece of fabric wrapping her breast. The slightly stiff palm covered the tender peaches that became fuller due to her pregnancy.

“Why mention him?” Wei Shao gently rubbed, feeling their softness in his palm. His tone of voice was still light.

Xiao Qiao forced his hand out of her lapel, turned around, and sat on her knees opposite him.“Husband doesn’t ask me what my sister’s letter says, but I want to tell you.”

Wei Shao’s gaze fell on her face.

“My sister said that the king of Langya visited Bi Zhi three times to ask him to join him, but Bi Zhi never agreed. My sister also said that Bi Zhi knew that Yang Xin had retreated out of the will of the Marquis of Yan. Since the misunderstanding cleared up, he did not want to make any more mistakes.”

“I know that Bi Zhi is a man who respects his promise and keeps his righteousness. If he does this, do you feel relieved?”

Xiao Qiao did not bother to conceal herself and said straightforwardly.

Wei Shao gazed into her eyes. “I don’t like Liu Yan.” He suddenly said after a few moments.

What he said just now was not related to what Xiao Qiao said.

“Man Man, he is your former fiancé, and I know you once had a good relationship with him. Now, he wants to fight for the world. If he is in my hands in the future, I will never be lenient.”

“Don’t blame me!” His tone was heavy in every word.Xiao Qiao was stunned. She hadn’t thought of Liu Yan, this person, for a long time. But at this moment, the memory of the last scene in the dream about her previous life, together with what happened two years ago after Xiao Qiao married Wei Shao and was sent to Yuyang on the second day of her wedding and kidnapped by him on the way, suddenly came back to her. The odd way Liu Yan stared at her when she politely refused him was still fresh in her mind. She falls silent.

“In your sister’s letter, did she talk about something else related to Liu Yan?” Wei Shao suddenly asked again, in a tone that sounded careless.

Xiao Qiao hesitated and was about to shake her head when Wei Shao leaned forward and reached for the letter she had put under the box.

Xiao Qiao did not expect him to take the letter right before her. Her heart jumped slightly. Seeing that his hand had touched that piece of silk, she subconsciously raised her hand and pressed it against the back of his hand.

Wei Shao quickly raised his eyes and gave her a stare. Xiao Qiao suddenly realized that something was wrong. Xiao Qiao’s instinct was not to let Wei Shao see the words of Liu Yan at the end of Da Qiao’s letter. Naturally, with a major war on the horizon, her intention was not to cause Wei Shao any more unnecessary suspicion. But if she tried to stop him, it might backfire. She let go of her hand and said, “If you want to see, just see.”

They looked at each other for a moment, and she slowly released the letter between her fingers and sat up straight again.

“I want you to tell me yourself.” His tone was full of command.

Xiao Qiao sighed secretly. “There is a message. He said he had put aside the past and wished me the best of luck.”

“Isn’t that nice?” She said in a relaxed tone.

Wei Shao looked cold and did not speak for a long time, then smiled faintly and nodded, “It is nice.” After saying that, he opened his arms toward her.

Xiao Qiao then entered his embrace. Wei Shao lowered his head, kissed her warm lips, and suddenly remembered the rumors coming from the south bank of the Yellow River about Xing Xun’s statement to capture him alive and take Xiao Qiao into the Lotus Terrace.

Although he knew this was just a bluff to disturb his mind before the war, at the bottom of his heart, he was still subtly angry. The lips that cover hers are getting more forceful.
