Chapter 253: Chapter 236: Bad Idea (Part 3)
"General, back then you were seriously injured and lost your memory. No one in the entire camp knew your past, which is why it’s impossible to verify your origins. However, the clothes you wore at that time should still be around? Even if those old clothes haven’t been preserved, there must be some tokens or something. If your family comes looking for you, at least those tokens can prove part of it."
"I remember those things were brought back to the Capital City. My shoes and clothes should have been brought back. Go find them for me immediately."
After a while, his confidant returned to report.
"The housekeeper said that your previous belongings were all organized by Madam Pang, only she knows where those things are stored."
"Why were they given to that woman?"
"When the General first returned, due to the busy official duties, there was no time to manage the household affairs. Madam Pang, claiming to be the hostess, handled all the arrangements big and small at home. General, you just kicked Madam Pang out, if you want her to come back to help find the belongings, even if she is willing, she might demand a hefty price."
"Tell her if she helps me find the items, I’ll grant her one hundred taels of silver, enough for her and her daughter to live in comfort."
"Yes."
The confidant carried out Su Rende’s orders to find Pang Family, but returned empty-handed. The confidant said they couldn’t find Pang Family, she and her daughter seemed to have disappeared into thin air.
"What do we do now, General?"
"Those are my belongings, she couldn’t possibly have taken them, so they must still be in the General Mansion. Get everyone involved and find those old things for me immediately. Whoever finds them will be heavily rewarded by the General."
Su Yaoguang buried the wine, getting mud all over herself, and only returned to her room after taking a bath.
As soon as she returned, a hand reached out from behind and hugged her slender waist, then the whole person clung on, burying in her neck, sniffing repeatedly.
"How fragrant, Yaoguang."
"Didn’t my mother say you should be resting in your previous room lately?" Since a feast is to be held, naturally the wedding has to be redone, so everyone let them sleep in separate rooms.
"I can’t sleep." Zhou Wangshu hugged her, kissing her earlobe. "Let’s keep our voices down, as long as we don’t alarm mom."
"Zhou Wangshu, you’re still young, can you..."
"Where am I young?" Zhou Wangshu cupped her cheeks, looking at her with a dangerous gaze, fearing that if her answer doesn’t satisfy him, he’d start to act out again.
Su Yaoguang wisely smiled and soothed him: "You’re still young, let’s not indulge in beauty, it’s harmful to your health."
Zhou Wangshu strode to the bed, took off his shoes, and lay down: "I just want to lie by your side like before, not do anything else. But you, Yaoguang, what’s in your mind, how can you be so lustful?"
Su Yaoguang: "..."
Alright, now she’s the one being lustful.
An unusual color flashed in Su Yaoguang’s eyes: "Alright then, if you can sleep soundly, I’ll let you stay. If you’re restless, return to next door and don’t disturb me anymore."
"Deal."
Zhou Wangshu lay on the inside.
Su Yaoguang climbed up, lying beside him.
Zhou Wangshu, smelling the fragrance from Su Yaoguang, scooted closer.
He wasn’t lying, he indeed wanted to share a bed purely for conversation, with no other intentions. After all, Zhang Zhaodi said they will be preparing for the feast, and before the celebration, they should act as if they aren’t married yet, avoiding any intimate actions.
However, a hand reached out from under the quilt, feeling his abs.
Zhou Wangshu froze.
His breath paused, looking at Su Yaoguang’s lovely face, he said through gritted teeth: "This is a bit sneaky."
"You promised to bet earlier, if you feel you lack the willpower, admit defeat and return to the room."
Zhou Wangshu felt the delicate hand, both warm and hot, igniting a fire on him. He endured with clenched teeth, but soon lost his restraint.
Su Yaoguang was deliberately teasing him, which wasn’t something one could just endure.
Zhou Wangshu leaned closer to Su Yaoguang’s ear and whispered: "In five days it’s announcement day, three days after it we’ll have our feast. Sister Yaoguang, you better watch out, I’ll make you pay later."
"Little brother Wang Shu, you only have a sharp tongue." Su Yaoguang bit his neck and licked.
Zhou Wangshu’s eyes changed.
Su Yaoguang proudly looked at him: "You lost, go back to your room and wait to become a bridegroom ready to marry into my family!"
