The Abandoned Wife of a Military Family: Your disguise has been exposed again.

Chapter 268 Rong Zhen rose to power through a lover's influence.
Qixia Horse Ranch.

The Ling family was overjoyed that Yunwei would come today.

"Sister Yun, it's been so long since you've come. I've missed you so much!" Ling Xiuer stepped forward and affectionately took Yun Wei's hand.

"Here I am!" Yunwei said with a smile.

“This young master is…” Master Ling’s gaze fell on Rong Zhen, feeling that he looked very familiar.

"Hey, isn't he the young master Rong that Sister Yun brought last time?" Ling Xiuer exclaimed.

“Xiuer has a good eye, it’s him.” Yunwei said, then pulled Rong Zhen over and introduced him to the Ling family, “Not long ago, I married him, and he is now my husband.”

The Ling family was stunned, staring at the two in astonishment.

It was Lin, the wife of the farm owner, who was the first to come to her senses. She took Yunwei's hand and said with a smile, "Then congratulations to you both. You are a perfect match, a match made in heaven."

"Thank you." Rong Zhen nodded.

Upon hearing this, Madam Lin's smile widened. She leaned close to Yun Wei's ear and whispered, "Master is so lucky. Your husband is clearly an exceptional man, one in a million."

Upon hearing this, Yun Wei glanced at Rong Zhen and saw him standing there tall and elegant. Although he didn't say much, he was captivating.

She smiled slightly, feeling quite fortunate to have married him.

"I'm sorry you had to see this," Yun Wei said modestly, regaining her composure.

At this moment, Ling Xiuer took her hand and walked to the side, whispering, "Sister Yun..."

"What do you want to say?" Yunwei asked with a smile when she saw that she seemed to want to say something but hesitated.

Ling Xiuer swallowed hard before whispering, "So, this Young Master Rong was indeed your lover back then. You divorced your original husband for him and helped this lover Rong rise to power?"

Yunwei choked on her own saliva, "Cough cough cough..."

Seeing this, Ling Xiuer quickly patted her back to help her recover. Once she was calm, she said with admiration, "Sister Yun, the person I admire most in this world is you. You did something that no woman dared to do."

That said, this brother-in-law of Rong's is so handsome. If it were me, I would also be willing to divorce my original husband and help him take his place.

Yun Wei: "..."

She was about to explain when she noticed Rong Zhen had walked over at some point, looking at her with a deep gaze, clearly having overheard what Ling Xiuer had said.

Ling Xiuer also saw Rong Zhen, giggled, let go of Yun Wei, and blinked, saying, "Then I won't disturb you talking to this brother-in-law Rong. I'm going to help my mother pick vegetables." After saying that, she skipped away.

Yunwei really wanted to drag her over and beat her up. Why did she have to bring up those old, trivial matters?

Now look what's happened; it's stirred up some bad memories for someone.

Sure enough, Rong Zhen said with a dark face, "Back then, what exactly did you say about me behind my back?"

Yunwei quickly shook her head, "No, there aren't any."

"You even called me a eunuch back then," the regent said, holding a grudge.

"I was just saying it offhand..." Yun Wei said awkwardly.

"You just said it casually, and I've been labeled a lover," Rong Zhen accused.

"I didn't know that Xiuer would talk nonsense. I explained to them later that you are not my lover." Yunwei said innocently.

Thinking of what Xiuer had just said, Rong Zhen gritted his teeth, "I was a mistress who took over?"

"Of course not," Yun Wei said seriously. "We are a proper married couple."

Upon hearing this, Rong Zhen's expression softened somewhat, but he still felt that Yun Wei must have gossiped about him behind his back. Otherwise, how could that brat have said that he was a mistress who rose to power?

"Alright, don't be angry. It's Xiuer's fault for being blind. Which lover looks like you?" Yunwei reached out and hugged his waist when no one was around, coaxing him softly.

Seeing her like this, Rong Zhen's anger dissipated.

"Let me show you around," Yunwei said, feeling a little guilty and afraid he would bring up the past.

"Mm," Rong Zhen replied.

Yunwei then took him for a stroll around the horse farm.

This place is called a horse farm, but in fact, it also raises a lot of sheep.

Looking at the flock of sheep grazing on the grassland, Yunwei said, "Let's stay here tonight. I'll ask Master Ling to slaughter a sheep, and we'll roast it for dinner."

"Okay." Rong Zhen agreed to her request.

Just then, Ling Chang's son, A-Jian, came out of the forest carrying a prey.

Ah Jian spotted Yun Wei from afar, quickly put down his prey, and went up to greet her, "Boss."

Yun Wei nodded, glancing at the deer he had placed on the ground. "Did you just hunt it?"

"Yes." Ah Jian nodded with a smile.

His skin was somewhat dark, but when he smiled, his teeth were clearly white.

"Will the master stay overnight at Qixia Horse Ranch tonight? If not, I'll go and kill this deer now and take half of it back for you," A-Jian said.

"No need to trouble yourself, we'll be staying here tonight," Yun Wei said.

She had originally intended to ask the farm owner to kill a sheep, but since A-Jian had hunted a deer, there was no need to kill a sheep.

"Okay!" Ah Jian replied happily. "Then you guys go ahead with your work, I'll carry this deer over and get it sorted out first."

“Go ahead.” Yunwei nodded.

Afterwards, Yunwei and Rongzhen rode horses for a while at the horse farm. "What do you think of the horses at my horse farm?" Yunwei asked after dismounting.

Rong Zhen praised, "Very good. The fur is glossy, the eyes are bright, the running stride is long, and the hind legs are very powerful."

Yunwei smiled and said, "Master Ling is very skilled at raising horses."

Seeing that her forehead was covered in sweat and her hair was wet, Rong Zhen took a handkerchief and wiped it for her, saying gently, "Didn't you also build a hot spring at your horse farm?"

“Yes.” Yunwei nodded, thinking he wanted to soak in the hot spring, and said, “I’ll take you there.”

“Together,” Rong Zhen added.

Yunwei was taken aback and turned to look at him, only to see him staring back at her with a serious expression.

She paused for a moment, wondering if she was overthinking things.

He simply wanted to soak in the hot springs with her.

Thinking of this, she secretly scolded herself for overthinking.

"Let's go," she said, leading the way.

Before long, she brought Rong Zhen to Ling Shuang Pavilion.

Although she rarely stayed there, Ling Shuang Pavilion was kept spotless, which showed that Lin Shi and Ling Xiuer had taken good care of it.

After passing through the bedroom, you arrive at the hot spring pool.

Yun Wei stopped and pointed to the pool in front of her, saying, "Your Majesty, please make yourself at home. I'll come back later." After saying that, she was about to leave when Rong Zhen quickly grabbed her waist.

"Why are you running?" The man looked down at her, a smile playing on his lips.

Yun Wei blinked. "I suddenly remembered that I have something to say to Master Ling."

"We can talk about it later, it's fine." Rong Zhen said slowly, and with a flick of his long fingers, he loosened her belt.

Without the belt binding her waist, Yunwei's clothes were open, revealing a light green bodice underneath.

Seeing this, Yunwei hurriedly covered her clothes with her hands and said angrily, "What are you doing?"

Rong Zhen reached out and brushed the damp hair from her forehead. "If you've sweated, it's better to take a shower and change into dry clothes."

Yun Wei scoffed coldly. What she said sounded grand and dignified, but her true intentions were not what they seemed.

"You hypocrite!" She rolled her eyes at the man, suddenly grabbed his collar, pulled him down a bit, then stood on tiptoe and kissed his lips.

Rong Zhen's breath hitched, and he immediately reached out to support the back of her head, deepening the kiss.

His other hand was also busy, peeling off her clothes.

Before long, Yunwei's clothes were all disheveled and lying on the ground.

A chill swept over her, and Yunwei regained some of her composure, but Rong Zhen scooped her up in his arms and carried her into the pool first.

Looking at the gently rippling pool, Yunwei's mind went blank for a moment before she suddenly blurted out, "Don't make so much noise, don't let anyone hear us."

Rong Zhen put her down and let her sit against the pool wall. Hearing this, he suddenly smiled, put one hand on her side, and said meaningfully, "Your Highness, just keep your mouth shut."

Yunwei didn't react at first, but when she understood what he meant, her face turned completely red.

Was that what she wanted to call out?

It's always him who does it to her...

Yunwei was both embarrassed and annoyed, and couldn't help but bite the man's shoulder.

Rong Zhen's body tensed up instantly.

It doesn't actually hurt; instead, it feels tingly and numb.

A dark glint appeared in his eyes, and he suddenly grabbed Yun Wei's waist, pulling her towards him.

The surrounding temperature is rising rapidly.

Yunwei felt dizzy, her arms weakly wrapped around the man's neck, and her slender legs unconsciously tightened around his strong waist.

Afraid of falling, she clung tightly to the man's shoulders.

However, at the crucial moment, the man suddenly froze.

Yunwei opened her dazed eyes and looked at him with confusion. "What's wrong?"

There was still a dark undercurrent in Rong Zhen's eyes. He glanced at her helplessly, said nothing, and carried her to the pool.

Yunwei was completely bewildered as she watched him take a cloak from the side, wrap it around her, and then carry her back to the bedroom.

Yunwei only realized something was wrong when she was tucked into the blanket.

Why does she feel a slight bloating or pressure in her stomach?
Realizing what was happening, she quickly lifted the covers, glanced at herself, and her face instantly turned bright red—she had started her period.

She coughed lightly and said somewhat awkwardly, "Sometimes I'm not accurate, but this time I came two days early."

Rong Zhen hummed in agreement but didn't say anything else. "You should lie down for a while."

Seeing him turn and walk towards the hot spring pool, Yunwei knew he was in an awkward position and must be uncomfortable, so she blushed and said, "Come back."

Rong Zhen thought she was feeling unwell, so he turned back and asked anxiously, "What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell somewhere?"

Yunwei didn't speak, but glanced at his pants.

Because it happened so suddenly, he was only wearing a pair of trousers and his upper body was bare.
