The clouds and mists have dispersed, and everyone knows that I love you.

Chapter 1265: Use her as a shield.

"I can protect him for a while, but I can't protect him forever.

The same is true for Lanchuan.

If you want him to live a better life in the future, you can only put away your love for him, hide it deep in your heart, and live a good life with Huo Yigeng.

Only in this way can you completely protect him, understand?"

Miao Man closed her eyes tightly and cried so hard that she was out of breath. Even her delicate and pretty facial features were tightened in pain.

"Young Master, my...heart hurts so much, wuwuwu!"

Shi Rong raised his hand and brought the woman into his arms.

“I know that’s how it goes for everyone the first time, including me.

But Miao Man, be strong, everything will turn around, all you have to do is wait patiently, really."

Miao Man nodded heavily.

"Okay! I understand. Then... can I come back later? I can't bear to leave you."

Shi Rong smiled bitterly.

“Of course, you are getting married, not being sold, and before you get married, you have to stay in the Ying family.

When the time comes, I will assign Qin Xiang to you as your close attendant. Don’t you like her the most?

Said she was chubby and very cute.

After you get married, if you miss home, you can come back anytime. With me here, the Huo family won’t dare to restrict your personal freedom.

Otherwise I will sue them for illegal imprisonment."

"Pfft~"

Miao Man burst into laughter and wiped her tear-stained face.

"Okay, I'll listen to you."

After a pause, Miao Man looked up and looked at Shi Rong with grievance.

"Is there any wine?"

Shi Rong was stunned.

"You want to drink? That's not good, right? Huo Yigen and the others are leaving tomorrow. Didn't they come to see you tonight?"

Miao Man shook his head stubbornly and sniffed.

"I found it. I said I want to sleep between you and Master Song Jian tonight."

"what?"

Shi Rong couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth.

"Do you think Song Qianchen would agree?"

Miao Man tidied up her slightly messy hair.

"It's fine as long as Huo Yigen agrees. He'll be relieved knowing that I'm with you.

At worst, if I get drunk, I can just find a guest room and sleep there. He won’t know anyway.”

Got it!

Shi Rong had figured it out. If she guessed correctly, this woman would probably always use her as a shield whenever she went out to do something shameful.

"Miao Man, you haven't gotten married yet, so let me help you cover up your lie, is that okay?"

Miao Man pouted.

"How can this be called covering up a lie? This is called doing good."

When Shi Rong heard this, he was even more speechless.

Doing good deeds... She actually thought of that.

Out of the corner of his eye, he glanced at the European-style clock on the wall.

"Okay, then I'll go tell Brother Chu and the others.

It just so happens that Jiuzhou and Shiyang have finished their training and it’s time for them to come back to see me. I’ll bring some wine and food.”

Miao Man nodded.

"Okay, I'll wait for you then."

After Shi Rong left, Miao Man went into the bathroom to wash her face, and as usual, smoothed out the wrinkles on the sofa.

I picked out two thick cushions with bright patterns, moved the imperial green coffee table a distance away, and put the cushions into the gap between the coffee table and the sofa.

Coming to the wardrobe that belonged to Chu Yu, Miao Man opened it and took a look, then chose a set from inside that he had prepared for Shi Rong.

She took a shower and changed into pajamas embroidered with silver roses. Anyway, before Chu Yu came, this was Miao Man's room, so she had no reason to be polite.

After cleaning the used bathroom and removing the moisture, Miao Man dried her hair, sat in front of the coffee table, and waited for nearly 15 minutes.

Shi Rong then walked in slowly from outside the door. As expected, she was followed by six tall and strong men.

They are Huo Jiuzhou, Shi Yang, Chu Yu, Xing Jiashan, who are wearing high-end home clothes of different colors, and Song Qianchen who is sitting in a wheelchair.

And Xie Yixiu who appeared out of nowhere.

Everyone was holding different drinks and snacks in their hands.

Shi Rong probably went back to her room to take a shower. At this moment, she was wearing a floor-length nightgown made of pure white gauze with wide sleeves, a cross V-neck and straight shoulders.

Her long, flowing hair exuded a refreshing rose and magnolia scent.

Seeing this, Miao Man smiled at him.

She just knew...

The little woman raised her hand and pointed at the people behind her.

"They told you to ignore them and just watch us drink. We said whatever we wanted to say, but they just pretended not to hear."

Miao Man knew very well that before Shi Rong came, he must have tried his best to argue with reason, but he could not overcome the persistence of these men.

They can always come up with ten thousand different excuses to keep pestering people.

So I accepted it with pleasure.

"Okay, that's fine. I don't mind. It's not the first time we've sat together and had a drink."

Seeing Shi Rong sitting on the ground beside them, the men were dissatisfied but did not dare to say anything.

Miao Man understood again.

Sometimes, she really admired Shi Rong's high emotional intelligence. He could always clearly grasp a group of wealthy young men from aristocratic families who were so powerful that they could cover the sky with one hand.

“It’s been a long time since I’ve sat on a mat and drank like this.

It seems like the last time was when we formed a team and were about to fight Du Su and the others."

Miao Man picked up the traditional Chinese liquor that Xie Yixiu had placed on the table, unscrewed the bottle cap, added two new glasses, and then adjusted the amount according to everyone's preferences.

I opened the unopened bottles of various imported liquors and poured 6 glasses.

“Yes, we talked a lot that night.

You also said that if you lose this battle, your biggest regret would be that you won't be able to see me get married in this life.

I didn’t want my words to come true, and now, I’m really going to get married…”

Miao Man forced back the tears in her eyes, and then placed the snacks that Shi Rong brought one by one on the celadon jade plate.

Shi Rong pushed the tissue that Shi Yang had prepared for her in front of Miao Man.

"Cry if you want to, maybe next time, you won't have such an opportunity.

You have been with me for so many years, and sometimes I really can't understand why you could marry a powerful young man from a noble family.

Isn’t that every woman’s dream?”

Miao Man picked up the wine glass, clinked it with Shi Rong, and took another big sip.

"If I hadn't grown up with Lan Chuan, maybe I would be happy too?

The first time we met was at the gate of the Ying family's old house. I was 7 years old and he was 11.

It was the first time I saw a boy who was only 11 years old and was about 6 meters tall.

He was brought here by my sixth uncle. I joked with him, "Brother, did you grow up eating chemical fertilizers?"

He shook his head very seriously and said no, then took my hand and repeatedly gave me earnest instructions.

Tell me, sister, you can’t eat chemical fertilizers.”

"Hahaha."

Shi Rong smiled and almost spat out the spicy duck tongue that Huo Jiuzhou fed him.

"Don't tell me, this is something Lan Chuan could do."

Miao Man also laughed.

"Right? Later, he and I were assigned to the old lady's family. At that time, the Ying family didn't have the position of night patrol captain.

All the close subordinates were trained personally by the old man and the old lady.

The old lady has a gentle and easy-going personality, like my grandmother. She always treats Lanchuan and me as children.

But during special training, he becomes a completely different person."
