Her hair was cloud-like and beautiful! She opened her eyes and found herself back in the third year

Chapter 116 They think they can control me for life?

Cheng Yan squinted, feeling somewhat irritated.

"You do not trust me?"

"I believe you." Qin Yizhen smiled; how could she not believe him?

She believed that he spoiled and doted on her, and that at this moment, he truly wanted to spend his life with her.

"But who can predict the future? Even the most loving couples may get tired and weary one day. I don't want us to be unable to be family members on that day."

"If you truly have this intention, then do it. When we are old and have truly lived a lifetime, then you can say these words again. At that time, I will surely be moved to tears and feel that my life has been fulfilled."

Cheng Yan reached out and pinched her cheek.

"Hiss!" Qin Yizhen gasped. "Why did you pinch me?"

Cheng Yan pinched her again: "I pinched you? I think it's clearly you who's pinching me! Little Begonia, you're so clever, you think you can control me forever like this."

Qin Yizhen snorted: "This is not what I asked for, it's what you said yourself. Men's words are not enough, let's see what you do."

"Am I not a man?" Cheng Yan gritted his teeth. "We were making a ruckus until the wee hours last night. Do you really think I'm a man or not?"

The topic suddenly veered off course...

Qin Yizhen's face turned red, and she reached out to cover his mouth: "You still say that? I already said I didn't want it, but you still insisted."

"Don't you feel that your husband isn't gentle enough or tender enough? I just want you to know what gentleness and tenderness really mean."

"Shameless!"

Cheng Yan looked at her, both embarrassed and annoyed, and still acting like a little girl, and couldn't help but laugh out loud.

He reached out and pulled her into his arms, gently stroking her hair.

She was so innocent, radiant, kind, and beautiful; naturally, he couldn't bear to see her become unrecognizable.

If she wants to remain innocent and carefree forever, he is willing to protect her for the rest of his life and ensure she has no worries. If she wants to grow up, he will accompany her and watch her grow into a better version of herself step by step.

Life is long, and she didn't believe he could remain the same, nor was she willing to give him her whole heart.

Although he was somewhat saddened, he could understand.

Since she had reservations, he stopped mentioning "forever" and, as she said, if you have the will, words are useless; you have to actually do it.

Cheng Yan kissed the top of her head, picked up a piece of paper, and continued to talk to her about the things that the Department of Child Rearing needed to pay attention to.

......

Madam Zhou and Zhou Ning were escorted by servants to Qingshui Courtyard to apologize to Song Pingping.

The mother and daughter tried to break free but couldn't. In fact, their hair and clothes became disheveled from all the struggling.

After they were forced to the ground in front of Song Pingping's sickbed, Madam Zhou had a cold, deathly expression on her face, while Zhou Ning struggled desperately.

Song Pingping had just received a heavy blow to the buttocks, which were still sore. She was especially surprised to see the two men being pushed over, and then a little smug:

"Oh, it's you guys? Looking at your disheveled appearance, I thought you were beggars in the market."

"Song Pingping!" Zhou Ning was so stung by her words that she almost exploded with rage. "You think you're something special just because you've entered the Pingxi Marquis's mansion? You're nothing more than a lowly concubine who can't even be brought to the table."

“Yes, I am a lowly concubine.” Song Pingping said indifferently, “Then what are you being forced to come before me, a lowly concubine? Are you lowly people?”

“You…you you…”

"What are you talking about? You think you're so noble?" Song Pingping rolled her eyes at her. "Even if I'm a concubine, I'm still a concubine of the Marquis of Pingxi's mansion, someone protected by the princess."

But you're different. Lin Yuansheng has already been suspended from his duties. Once I present the evidence, it's clear he hired someone to commit murder, and although it failed, his future is ruined.

"Nonsense!" Zhou Ning jumped up and down in anger. "Song Pingping, even if Lin Lang married me and wronged you, you can't slander him like this. Have you forgotten how the Lin family took you in when you were homeless?"

“Of course I can’t forget it.” Song Pingping’s gaze was cold and deep. “Back then, the Lin family took me in, and I supported his studies. That’s already considered repaying the Lin family’s kindness.”

“He was ungrateful and broke his promise to marry you, and I couldn’t be bothered to argue with him, but he wants my life.”

In this world, many things can be tolerated and let go, but not life.

“I have already informed the Jingzhao Prefecture to arrest the people he bribed. Once the truth comes out, he will be finished. Miss Zhou, I advise you to divorce him as soon as possible to avoid difficulty in remarrying in the future.”

"What?" Zhou Ning's eyes widened in shock, and her hands trembled.

Madam Zhou's pupils contracted slightly, her eyes turning cold and indifferent.

Song Pingping laughed heartily: "He's in deep trouble. Even if he doesn't die, his future is ruined. Doesn't Madam Lin look down on me, a lowly commoner? If I don't divorce him, I'll have to live the life I used to live as a lowly commoner."

"By then, Madam Lin will have to get up earlier than the rooster and go to bed later than the dog every day, toiling like an ox, and will be a lowly commoner for the rest of her life..."

"You...you...you..." Zhou Ning's blood rushed to her head, and finally her eyes rolled back, and she fainted.

"Girl! Girl!"

"Ning'er!"

The scene was chaotic, but Song Pingping raised her eyebrows, which put her in a good mood.

Those ten lashes hurt terribly, but at least I'm seeing some reward.

Lin Yuansheng is going to be in trouble, and Zhou Ning won't fare any better. If she can't bear to part with Lin Yuansheng, she'll probably end up becoming the 'lowly commoner' he talks about.

"Alright, stop yelling. She just fainted from anger. It's no big deal. I broke several bones when I rolled down the mountain."

“Miss Song.” Madam Zhou took a deep breath and slightly raised her chin. “Miss Song is being too aggressive and making outrageous remarks. It’s a bit much.”

"Besides, the princess sent me and Ning'er to apologize to you. What kind of attitude is this?"

"Did the princess send you to apologize?" Song Pingping understood immediately, but couldn't help laughing again. "If it's an apology, then what's with your attitude? Pointing your finger at me and cursing?"

"Come here, Mrs. Zhou, say sorry to me. I'll be listening right here."

Mrs. Zhou was surprised that Song Pingping actually dared to ask her to apologize, and her face immediately darkened.

Just then, Lü Qiao arrived and, upon hearing this, immediately said, "Madam Zhou, since you have made a mistake, the princess has asked you to come and apologize. Are you not even going to listen to the princess?"

Mrs. Zhou's face turned from black to green.

Lü Qiao added, "The princess doesn't like to argue with people, but if you openly oppose her, that might not be good. If the Marquis or the Empress Dowager find out, it will be even worse."

Madam Zhou's face changed from green to bright red, then back to black, then back to green again—it was quite a spectacle.
