It was obvious.
Someone so valued by Young Master Liang would never do something so crude.
Therefore, he was truly at ease with his wife going to buy rouge with Chen Nan.
"Brother Chen, we agreed to go listen to music, why are you going to buy rouge?" Liang Jian was a little unhappy, muttering with a dejected air.
"Look, the Wu family is all here, you guys go listen," Chen Nan said casually, then added, "I'll trouble Madam Wu to accompany me to buy rouge."
"A small matter, not worth mentioning," Ning Yinqiu said respectfully.
Chen Nan grunted and looked at Wu Quan and the others, "Go with the Liang family to listen to music! All expenses are on my tab, we'll settle it later, that's all for now!"
With that, he walked out.
Just as Ning Yinqiu was about to follow.
Wu Quan stopped her, took out two hundred taels of silver notes from his embrace, and said, "I don't know how much rouge costs, take these two hundred taels of silver notes. Remember, absolutely do not let Young Master Chen pay."
"What if it's not enough..."
"Second Uncle, don't just stand there foolishly, take out your money too!"
"What if it's not enough when we pay the bill? Where would our Wu family's reputation go?"
Liang Jian crossed his arms, the disdain that had always been on his face gone, "That's right, you have high emotional intelligence, I like making friends with people like you."
Wu Yuanzhong, who had been somewhat reluctant, immediately took out the silver notes and loose silver he had on him.
Though not much,
It was still over two hundred taels.
He gave it all to Ning Yinqiu.
"Then I will take my leave," Ning Yinqiu said courteously, then turned and followed Chen Nan's figure.
Her heart felt as sweet as if she had eaten honey.
Four hundred taels of silver could buy a lot of rouge.
The remaining money would fall into her pocket.
Under the night sky.
Chen Nan and Ning Yinqiu strolled under the dim streetlights of Tongcheng.
The so-called streetlights were actually the faint glow from lanterns in front of shops along the streets.
Not bright,
But giving a hazy beauty.
Much like a 300,000-pixel phone photo taken on Earth.
On the road.
Ning Yinqiu recounted what had happened at the Ning family earlier.
And how Wu Yuanzhong and his son were forced to kneel and apologize.
Chen Nan frowned upon hearing this, "You actually forced father and son to kneel? Aren't you afraid they'll lash out when cornered?"
Ning Yinqiu did not hide her hatred, "They humiliated me repeatedly, I must make them pay the price."
"As for lashing out when cornered..."
"As long as Wu Quan is alive, they wouldn't dare to harm a single hair of mine."
"But what if Wu Quan suddenly died?" At this point, Chen Nan was stunned, a chill raising goosebumps on his skin, "You forcing Wu Yuanzhong and his son to kneel was not a spur-of-the-moment act."
"Your true intention was to enrage them."
"To make them act to kill Wu Quan, thus freeing yourselves from the Wu family and regaining your freedom!"
Chen Nan suddenly felt a little afraid of Ning Yinqiu.
This woman's heart was more than just ordinary venomous.
Her move of using a borrowed knife to kill was truly unpredictable.
"Are you afraid of me?" Ning Yinqiu showed a meaningful smile, she saw the trace of panic and unease flash in Chen Nan's eyes.
Chen Nan laughed, not hiding his thoughts, "I didn't expect you to be so deep, but for a woman, this is a good thing."
"Only then can you avoid being bullied."
Ning Yinqiu raised an eyebrow, "Then who gets the extra thirty percent profit?"
Chen Nan chuckled wryly, "It took me so much effort to write... my friend worked so hard to write [White Feather] and only got fifty percent profit. You, on the other hand, got forty percent profit without doing anything. What is my friend working for?"
Ning Yinqiu looked at him tenderly, "I don't know what your friend is working for, but you can have me."
"What do you mean?" Chen Nan's eyes lit up, "Didn't you say you wouldn't do anything to betray your husband while he was alive?"
Ning Yinqiu raised her small chin and snorted, "Can't I change my mind now?"
She also wanted to uphold her morals.
Not to do anything that would betray Wu Quan while he was alive.
But what happened today had completely disappointed her.
The other party hit her without rhyme or reason.
Completely not treating her as a human.
Especially the two hundred taels of silver notes he had given her earlier.
This point had completely crushed her heart.
Knowing that her monthly allowance was only a few dozen copper coins.
But just now.
Just because Chen Nan wanted to buy rouge for his maid, he had taken out two hundred taels of silver.
He had even asked Wu Yuanzhong for another two hundred taels.
This showed the importance of Chen Nan's maid in his heart.
And her?
She worked tirelessly to make money for the Wu family, only to be less important than a maid in the end!
Therefore,
She wanted to take revenge on Wu Quan.
Chen Nan was stunned, and understood Ning Yinqiu's meaning. He smiled and said, "I like women like you who break their promises! Come on, let's buy rouge first, and then go to your love nest!"
Ning Yinqiu couldn't help but say, "Why not skip the rouge and get straight to the main event?"
"Must buy!"
Last time, Song Ziwei had smelled rouge on him when they hadn't even gotten together.
Now that they were about to get together,
The smell of rouge on him would definitely be stronger.
If he didn't buy the rouge beforehand, how would he explain it to Song Ziwei when he got back?
After buying the rouge.
Both of them eagerly headed east.
Finally arriving at the courtyard Ning Yinqiu had bought in the east city.
"Uh, you'd better be quick, my husband is suspicious. If I'm back late, he'll definitely suspect something," Ning Yinqiu's face showed a hint of anticipation and a trace of inexplicable unease.
Even though she was already married to Wu Quan.
She had always remained a virgin.
"Haste makes waste, especially for this kind of thing."
"It should happen naturally."
"As for your husband, you don't need to worry at all."
"Even if we play slowly and you go back, they won't return to the Wu family."
Chen Nan knew Liang Jian's personality.
That guy was an opera fanatic, and tonight was an opera he liked to listen to.
It would take at least one to two hours.
If he didn't leave,
Would the Wu family dare to leave first?
Therefore,
He could confidently and boldly explore life with Ning Yinqiu, getting to know each other deeply.
Of course.
He still felt a sense of urgency.
After all,
This was stealing.
Very exciting.
And very interesting.
Moreover, Ning Yinqiu was a virgin.
He dared not be rough.
For fear of affecting her gait, which might arouse Wu Quan's suspicion.
That kind of cautious feeling.
This, on the contrary, made things more interesting.
An hour later.
Chen Nan left Ning Yinqiu's house with a ruddy complexion, still wanting more.
He sniffed his clothes.
Although there was the smell of rouge,
He had bought two boxes of rouge in his arms.
Even if Song Ziwei noticed, he wouldn't be afraid of her questioning.
However,
Just as Chen Nan left, a figure flashed past a large tree on the street corner and disappeared into the night sky...
