Chapter 122 Difference
Chu Ci was speechless and turned to complain to her husband: "Is it necessary to run so fast?"
Fan Jingrui pursed his lips and chuckled: "My lady, the Purple Envoy is afraid that you will fleece him."
Chu Ci immediately thought of Jin Yang who was still with Divine Doctor Hua, "Don't wrongly accuse me, Jin Yang stuck to me on his own."
Fan Jingrui suppressed his smile and surrendered: "Okay, it's my husband's fault."
Seeing Chu Ci's satisfied smile, Fan Jingrui took the opportunity to say, "Madam, aren't you tired? Take a break now, or the Purple-robed Envoy will come to your door again."
It's true, this possibility is quite high. Chu Ci immediately took off his coat, opened the quilt, turned over and lay down, "Go to sleep."
Then fell asleep in a second.
Fan Jingrui looked at Chu Ci's sleeping face and murmured to himself, "You seem free and uninhibited, but in fact you don't trust others. When will my lady allow me to enter your inner world?"
The eyelashes of Chu Ci who was sleeping trembled slightly, but it only lasted for a moment before he regained his composure.
Fan Jingrui sighed lightly, but didn't say anything else. He just moved closer to Chu Ci, stretched out his long arms, and held her in his arms.
Chu Ci did not resist Fan Jingrui's actions, but instead leaned in the direction of his force.
Seeing this, Fan Jingrui seemed to be thinking about something.
Is it really because we spend too little time together?
As he was thinking, Fan Jingrui gradually fell asleep.
The two woke up again, awakened by Xiaowu's knock on the door. "Boss, Master Fan, the boat will arrive in a quarter of an hour."
Chu Ci looked towards the window. The sun had already illuminated most of the room. She quickly responded loudly, "Okay, we got it."
Since they were in an inn and it was already morning when they went to sleep, they only took off their coats.
Including washing up, it only took a few minutes in total.
When they got to the first floor, Mo Yan had already prepared buns for them. Chu Ci picked one up and started to eat it. "Hmm, is it filled with crab roe?"
Mo Yan secretly glanced at Fan Jingrui behind Chu Ci, and when he saw Fan Jingrui nod, he said, "Yes, that's what the young master ordered last night."
Although Chu Ci was very satisfied with Fan Jingrui's intention, Mo Yan's action still reminded her of yesterday's incident. "Mo Yan, you are quite able to tell who is the head of this family?"
"I..." Mo Yan subconsciously asked Fan Jingrui for help.
Although Fan Jingrui realized that it was inappropriate, he felt that Chu Ci was making a big fuss. So he advised: "Madam, yesterday's order..."
Little did she know that this made Chu Ci's face even uglier, and some details that had been ignored by Chu Ci gradually emerged in her mind.
"So, my husband, do you think from the bottom of your heart that what Mo Yan did was right?" Chu Ci stared at Fan Jingrui.
It seemed that if he dared to say "no", everything would be over between them.
Such a thought suddenly flashed through Fan Jingrui's mind.
Although Fan Qianyan didn't know what Chu Ci was worrying about, she could truly feel the tense atmosphere between her brother and sister-in-law.
He looked at this and that cautiously. Then he interrupted and said, "Brother, sister-in-law, this is not the place to discuss things. How about we talk on the boat?"
Chu Ci did not refute Qian Yan's words, but glared at Fan Jingrui fiercely before leaving.
Fan Jingrui was completely confused, while Mo Yan asked innocently, "Sir, why is the young lady angry with Mo Yan?"
Chu Ci paused for a moment when she heard this. She wanted to hear how Fan Jingrui would answer.
Fan Qianyan wanted to persuade him but didn't dare to, and could only hope in his heart that his elder brother would be more supportive.
Fan Jingrui naturally noticed Chu Ci's actions, raised his voice slightly, and took the initiative to ask: "Mo Yan, why do you have such an idea?"
"I..." Mo Yan's eyes flashed with panic. "I didn't, yesterday, yesterday, I just remembered the days in the mountains. Sir, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have been so kind."
Mo Yan thought he handled it very well.
However, this trace of panic did not escape Fan Jingrui's eyes.
Chu Ci, who was not far away, also fell into deep thought. She was too lazy to listen to the conversation between the two and said, "Let's go!"
Qianyan still wanted to fight for her eldest brother, so she approached Chu Ci and whispered, "Sister-in-law, shall we listen again?"
Chu Ci shook his head.
After calming down, Chu Ci understood that whether Mo Yan did it intentionally or unintentionally, the key lies in the difference in thinking patterns.
If she were an ordinary woman, she might not care about Mo Yan's little action.
But she, who came from another world, had enjoyed equality for all beings and equal rights for men and women. No matter how much she tried to ignore it, as long as there was a trigger, the details that she usually ignored would become a barrier between her and Fan Jingrui, and even the entire Fan family.
For example, now.
She blamed Mo Yan verbally, but her actions targeted Fan Jingrui.
Having found a reasonable explanation for his behavior, Chu Ci felt a little relieved, but his movements did not slow down, but instead quickened.
Xiao Wu followed Chu Ci closely and showed her the way.
When Fan Jingrui, who was behind, saw this scene, he no longer had the heart to explain to Mo Yan, and he quickly followed.
Therefore, the couple did not notice that Jin Yang was no longer beside Doctor Hua.
He also missed the opportunity to learn about the Purple-Robed Envoy's condition in time, and this miss almost cost the Purple-Robed Envoy his life.
However, Chu Ci knew nothing about this at the moment.
At this moment, Chu Ci was sitting opposite Fan Jingrui in the cabin.
"My wife, I..." Fan Jingrui just started to speak, but was interrupted by Chu Ci. "My husband, let me speak first!"
"Okay." In fact, Fan Jingrui was also worried about this matter. As soon as Chu Ci opened his mouth, he went along with it.
After receiving Fan Jingrui's affirmative answer, Chu Ci slowly spoke: "My husband, you should know that although I am the daughter of the Chu family, my education is completely different from that of the noble ladies of the Chu family or the entire capital, right?"
Upon hearing this, Fan Jingrui nodded again.
Chu Ci then continued, "In the education I received, although parents are great, they can also be pointed out directly when they make mistakes. Husbands and wives should help each other and respect each other, but they are also independent individuals. Do you understand what I mean, husband?"
Fan Jingrui seemed to be thinking about it, "I will let Mo Yan stay when I go back this time."
Chu Ci knew in his heart that if the general environment remained unchanged, no matter who replaced him, he might end up like Mo Yan.
Therefore, Chu Ci simply shook her head and refused: "My husband misunderstood my meaning. What I want to say is that I will also need someone who belongs to me alone in the future."
"Okay, I'll send someone to look for him after I return to Lianzhou." Although Fan Jingrui didn't understand what Chu Ci was thinking, he chose to respect him.
