Jiaojiao is getting married, and the male leads fall for her and fight over her.

Chapter 89 Coercion: My Cousin Leaves the Marquis's Residence on Her Own
"Hide your mother!" Shen Shuyi couldn't hold back any longer and blurted out a curse.

Pei Er has stopped pretending and is now deliberately going against her. Moreover, even though he knows that Fusang Courtyard is her residence, he still barges in without any hesitation.

She only provoked him once, how could there be such a vengeful scoundrel?

Pei Nanzhou found the term somewhat novel, but he was more curious about what Shen Shuyi had hidden on the bed. He smiled nonchalantly and said, "What are you hiding? Show it to your cousin!"

"Why should I let you see my things?!" Shen Shuyi felt that no matter what method she used, she couldn't let Pei Nanzhou see her design drafts.

Otherwise, if he finds out she owns a clothing store, who knows if he might take the opportunity to rob her shop. Most importantly, she doesn't want anyone to know of Sun Wang's existence, lest it bring about her death.

Pei Nanzhou was too lazy to say anything more.

Shen Shuyi is hiding things, which means she can't be exposed to the light of day. If he could find something wrong with her, he might be able to use it as an excuse to drive her out of the Marquis's mansion.

He stepped forward and twisted Shen Shuyi's hands behind her back. Shen Shuyi's eyes reddened with pain. She knew that she was no match for Pei Nanzhou's strength and felt that she should take the initiative to show weakness.

"Cousin, let me go. I'll show you the things. If someone sees you and me entangled in bed, you won't be able to explain yourself no matter how many mouths you have." Shen Shuyi's head was pressed against the pillow, her voice muffled.

Pei Nanzhou readily agreed and released his hold on her.

He simply wanted to see what tricks Shen Shuyi could pull right under his nose.

But as soon as he let go of his cousin Shen, he felt dizzy. He knew something was wrong and tried to grab Shen Shuyi, but Shen Shuyi fell onto the bed before he could.

He shook his head, and his body fell uncontrollably.

A-Jian was eavesdropping outside the door. She was hesitating whether to rush in and help the girl, but when the room suddenly went silent, she peeked out and saw the second young master lying on the bed.

She was startled by what she saw, but she quickly realized that the second young master and the young lady had clearly lost consciousness.

The girl was caught off guard this time and failed to take the antidote beforehand, so she simply knocked herself and the second young master unconscious at the same time.

She rushed forward and moved Pei Nanzhou off the bed. Remembering how rude the Second Young Master Pei had been to the young lady earlier, she was furious and pushed Pei Nanzhou to the ground.

She then gave the girl the antidote.

Shen Shuyi woke up in just a moment.

Seeing Pei Nanzhou lying on the ground, she felt that A-Jian understood her best. She even went up to him and stomped on his chest twice to vent her anger.

Then she moved the flowerpots in the yard, dug a hole underneath them, hid all the design drafts inside, and then moved the flowerpots back to their original positions.

When she finished her work, she turned around and saw A-Jian staring at her with her mouth wide open: "How was it? I hid it pretty well, right?"

A-Jian gave her mistress a thumbs up: "You're amazing!"

Shen Shuyi smiled brightly: "Of course! To deal with a pervert like my second cousin, you have to find a place where no one would expect you to hide all the evidence."

Afterwards, she had Dai Mama and A-Jian work together to carry Pei Nanzhou away and throw him out of Fusang Courtyard.

She actually wanted to dig a hole and bury Pei Nanzhou, but her mission wasn't finished yet. If she had to do something related to Pei Nanzhou in the future, she felt she couldn't be too ruthless.

Seeing Pei Nanzhou lying peacefully asleep on the ground, she went over and tugged his hair twice, still not satisfied. Then she picked a few wildflowers and placed them on Pei Nanzhou's chest, as if burying him. A-Jian watched in stunned silence.

She had always known that the girl was a very thoughtful woman, but this level of thoughtfulness still surprised her.

An hour later, Pei Nanzhou finally opened his eyes.

He blinked, momentarily dazed.

When he sat up and saw the white chrysanthemum that had fallen from his chest, he froze in his tracks.

At this moment, his mind gradually cleared, and he finally remembered why he had lost consciousness. It was clear that his cousin Shen had drugged him, and that she had also drugged herself...

So what secret is she hiding that she insists on keeping from him?

He now regrets not having Qingfeng and Mingyue come along, otherwise he would have known what Shen Shuyi had done behind his back after he fainted.

Pei Nanzhou returned to Fusang Courtyard. Shen Shuyi was in the courtyard and was not surprised at all when she saw him come again: "Second cousin, have you fallen in love with me? Can't you live without seeing me for a moment?"

Pei Nanzhou ignored Shen Shuyi's provocative words. He entered the Fusang Courtyard and began rummaging through drawers and cabinets, trying to find out what Shen Shuyi had hidden.

Seeing that the dressing table drawer had been opened, Shen Shuyi suddenly rushed over: "Where is your second cousin's upbringing? Running into an unmarried girl's boudoir, believe me or not, I'll tell Grandmother and force my second cousin to marry me!"

Pei Nanzhou ignored Shen Shuyi's clamor. He easily pushed aside the woman blocking his way, pulled out a drawer, and saw a letter inside.

Shen Shuyi wanted to snatch the letter, but she was no match for Pei Nanzhou's quick hands. She tried to grab it back, but Pei Nanzhou's arms were too long, and she couldn't reach it at all.

Shen Shuyi wanted to snatch it again, but Pei Nanzhou naturally didn't give her the chance.

Until Pei Nanzhou unfolded the letter and selected a key sentence to read aloud: "Cousin Crown Prince, I love you..."

After reading only one sentence, Pei Nanzhou chuckled, "No wonder you didn't let me see it; it turns out it's a love letter to Prince Pei."

He glanced at the following text, which was blunt and bold, even stating that she wanted to marry Prince Pei and become his wife: "With your background, cousin, you still want to become the prince's wife? Don't worry, cousin, with me here, you'll never have the chance to become the prince's wife in this lifetime!"

Shen Shuyi felt relieved that the play was finally over, and Pei Nanzhou seemed to believe that this was the secret she was trying to hide.

But she still stubbornly retorted, "That's not necessarily true. When I become the Crown Prince's wife, remember to call me sister-in-law, cousin."

Pei Nanzhou confiscated the letter, saying, "I will let Grandmother see this letter my cousin wrote, so that Grandmother can see my cousin's true colors. Cousin, guess how Grandmother will view you after seeing this letter?"

Shen Shuyi really didn't expect Pei Nanzhou to be so perverted. She guessed that Pei Nanzhou might give this letter to Pei Dongzhou, the person involved, but she never thought that he would show it to the old lady.

Nothing else really bothered her, but she felt it would be a bit embarrassing. Besides, she knew the old lady wouldn't kick her out of the manor for this, but she would advise her to give up her feelings for Prince Pei. She had even promised the old lady last time that she wouldn't pursue Prince Pei again.

"Cousin, is there any need to disturb Grandma? She's old and can't handle any stress..."

"Since my cousin left the Marquis's mansion on her own, I will not make this letter public!" Pei Nanzhou changed his mind in an instant.
