Chapter 41

Yun Ziyi walked away slowly with a smile on her face.

After he left, Chai Sujin turned and entered the house.

Ma Wenzhao followed closely behind, "Didn't you already divorced? Is this a resurgence of an old relationship, or a new friendship? Do you regret tearing up the marriage certificate so impulsively?"

Chai Sujin raised her eyebrows and looked at him.

The door curtain fell, blocking the too dazzling sunlight, and his sharp lines softened accordingly, but his tone was not soft at all.

"What does it have to do with you?" Chai Sujin chuckled.

Ma Wenzhao stepped closer to her, but before she could push her away, he reached out and grabbed her wrist, pulling her to his chest.

He looked down at her, "What do you say has anything to do with me?"

He was full of a man's domineering aura, which completely enveloped her.

And such a posture of looking down, adding a bit of depression.

Chai Sujin wanted to push him away, but the difference in strength between the two was too great, she reached out to touch the golden needle in her bosom.

He grabbed her other hand as well, "I made your gold needle, and you still want to use it against me?"

"Ma Wenzhao, why are you treating me like this?" Chai Sujin turned cold.

"It's because I like you." Ma Wenzhao lowered his head and approached her, his breath fell on her face, and in the deep and dark eyes was her reflection with thin anger, "How can the woman I like be with you?" Are men so intimate?"

"That's your business, I never promised you." Chai Sujin frowned.

"Miss, let's go at noon..." Chun Lu lifted the curtain and entered, and was stunned before she finished speaking, "I... the servant girl didn't see anything!"

Pa, she lowered the curtain, covered her face, turned around and retreated as if fleeing.

"Let go." Chai Sujin said helplessly.

Ma Wenzhao pulled her too close, and looked from the door, as if she was snuggling in his arms.

Just now, he even leaned down and spoke close to her face, as if he wanted to plant a kiss on her cheek.

Chun Lu, a silly child, must have thought too much.

"Don't let go, what can you do?" Ma Wenzhao chuckled.

Chai Sujin raised her knee unexpectedly and slammed into his vitals.

Ma Wenzhao was startled, and she let go of her hands, she struggled out immediately, and took a few steps away from him.

"Chunlu, we don't have to cook at noon, we'll go to Chenzilou." Chai Sujin said as she walked outside.

Ma Wenzhao smiled and shook his head.

Only when I saw brother Xuan did I know that he was practicing sword in the courtyard two days ago, and he overheard Chunlu muttering to himself that it will be her birthday in two days.Back when her grandfather and father were still in the imperial dining room, every time it was her birthday, a large table of delicious food would be prepared at home.

Although it is not clear that it is for her birthday.She is a junior in the family and has no reason to celebrate her birthday, but she is still very happy to feel the care of her family, and her mother will cook two red chicken eggs for her.

"I didn't expect Brother Xuan to be such a careful child." Chai Sujin smiled and patted Brother Xuan's head.

Brother Xuan patted her hand off, "Sister, you are only a year and a few months older than me, who is the child?"

The two were joking, but Chunlu knelt down with a plop and kowtowed to the Chai siblings.

"Get up, isn't it just a meal? Look at your prospects!" Brother Xuan said with a blushing face.

Chai Sujin patted him on the shoulder, then stretched out her hand to call Chunlu up.

Chunlu choked up and said, "When I left the capital, my servant thought that this life is over, and there will be no good days anymore. My father and grandpa were seriously ill, and my servant was even more desperate... Later, my uncle sold me, and my servant thought that this life was over. That's it. Later, the servant girl really wanted to die after being slapped in the face by the second Mrs. Yang..."

Chai Sujin sighed.

Ma Wenzhao, who had been silent all this time, said in a deep voice, "You can't die. If you die, everything will be over. Only by living can you get everything back."

Hearing this, Chai Sujin looked up at him.

But he lowered his eyes, lost in thought.

Chunlu shook her head again and again, "I didn't think about getting it back, I just thought, why is life so difficult, so difficult... It wasn't until I met Miss that I saw the hope of living again, and I regained my courage. Live on. Miss cured the maidservant's face, but also healed the maidservant's heart. Unexpectedly, the young master who has always been quiet and indifferent, who doesn't talk to the maidservant, cares about the maidservant so much... How can the maidservant ..."

While speaking, she was already sobbing.

Zhang Luo came to eat outside, and finally asked Chunlu to cook, Brother Xuan blushed a little embarrassed, "I don't think so much about small things. It's just to let you relax today."

Chunlu kowtowed again and again, kowtowing three times to her siblings before she would get up.

She was immersed in the joy of being cared for, and did not notice that the atmosphere between Chai Sujin and Ma Wenzhao was inexplicably solemn.

At the end of the meal, Chai Sujin asked Brother Xuan to go back to the clinic by himself, but asked Ma Wenzhao to take her and Chunlu home.

Chunlu recalled the scene in the house, blushed and lowered her head.

Brother Xuan didn't think much, and left in response.

Chunlu only felt that she was redundant, and she refused to sit in the carriage, insisting on sitting outside.

Chai Sujin didn't force her. In the carriage where the two sat opposite each other, she looked at Ma Wenzhao silently.

"What do you want to ask?" Ma Wenzhao smiled.

"What you said to Chunlu is actually your own voice, right?" Chai Sujin looked into his eyes and said slowly.

Ma Wenzhao shook his head, "You think too much."

"Why did King Chu pass the throne to his younger brother instead of his own son?" Chai Sujin asked himself.

The smile on Ma Wenzhao's face faded immediately, and his brows were slightly frowned.

"Maybe it's not what it seems on the surface, or the usurpation of power? Why did the proton of Chu country disappear halfway? Maybe it wasn't missing, but he escaped with a serious injury? If there was no such luck, he might have died in the process of seizing power and usurping the throne. In human hands?" Chai Sujin said.

"Unfounded speculation." Ma Wenzhao shook his head, "What do you have to do with me?"

Chai Sujin let out a long sigh, "So it doesn't matter? So you didn't live to get everything back?"

Ma Wenzhao looked up at her deeply, but she turned her face and looked away.With a smile on his face.

It's just that this smile seems to him to be somewhat mocking.

"It's not the time yet." Ma Wenzhao said softly.

Chai Sujin paused after hearing the words, but did not speak, the carriage was silent and depressed.

When the carriage stopped at the gate of Chai's house, there were already people waiting outside.
