The Abandoned Wife of a Military Family: Your disguise has been exposed again.

Chapter 105 is surprisingly fierce.
But seeing the woman's disdainful look, he subconsciously didn't want to be looked down upon by her, so he explained, "I'm sorry, this is the first time I've used a woman's handkerchief to wipe my face, and I lost my composure for a moment. I hope you won't take it to heart."

His sudden apology and explanation were something Yunwei hadn't expected.

She paused for a moment, and after a long while, she said dryly, "Never mind, but Your Highness should be more mindful of your status next time. It is indecent to sniff a young lady's handkerchief. It really damages your status and image."

Rong Zhen: "..."

What does "smell" mean?
When did he smell her handkerchief?
He picked up her handkerchief, and its delicate fragrance wafted into his nostrils without him having to consciously smell it.

His brows furrowed, and he felt as if he had been greatly wronged.

"Are you mistaken? I didn't smell your handkerchief."

Yunwei glanced at him. He had just apologized, but now he was denying it.

This man is really fickle.

She scoffed, picked up the handkerchief, and demonstrated to him what he had just done.

"Just now, the prince was sniffing my handkerchief in this manner."

Rong Zhen rubbed his temples.

"You misunderstand, I did not do that intentionally."

"Then why did you put the handkerchief under your nose to smell it?" Yunwei persisted.

Rong Zhen pursed his lips. He couldn't very well say that it was because her handkerchief smelled so good that he had some inappropriate thoughts on his mind.

It seems that no explanation is correct.

"Anyway, things aren't what you think. I wouldn't do such a thing." He paused, then couldn't help but add, "On the contrary, it's you who gave me the handkerchief. If I'm wrong, you're wrong too. A handkerchief is a woman's private item. How could you just give it to any man?"

Yunwei choked.

"Or are you always this casual?" Rong Zhen frowned as he looked at her, a hint of displeasure on his handsome face.

Upon hearing this, Yunwei retorted angrily, "I have never given my handkerchief to anyone. If it weren't for the fact that you helped me shield myself from the rain, I wouldn't have lent it to you."

Upon hearing this, Rong Zhen paused, a subtle smile playing on his lips, and said slowly, "So, I'm the first man to use your handkerchief?"

Hearing this, Yunwei felt something was off, so she simply turned away, unwilling to pay him any more attention.

Looking at the woman's stubborn back, a smile flashed in Rong Zhen's eyes, but he didn't ask any further questions.

He looked out at the rain with his hands behind his back, feeling better than ever before. The anger from being wronged and misunderstood had long since vanished.

This rain came quickly and went quickly.

Soon, the rain stopped and the sun came out.

But the courtyard, washed by the rain, has a brand-new look and is full of vitality.

The two stood under the veranda for a while, looking at the scenery in the garden. After a while, they walked one after the other toward the front yard.

"So that's why you ended up next door. Turns out there's a beautiful woman living here."

As Rong Zhen and Yun Wei walked into the front yard, they heard a mocking voice.

Yun Wei looked up and was surprised to see a handsome young man standing in the courtyard.

The young man was also curiously observing her.

Just as Yun Wei was about to turn her head to ask Rong Zhen, a shadow suddenly fell over her, and the man stood in front of her, instantly blocking her view.

Looking at the man's tall and straight back, she was stunned for a moment, somewhat puzzled by his intentions.

Was she afraid that the young man might see her and have a bad misunderstanding? Seeing Yun Wei blocked behind him, the young man was somewhat unwilling and was about to stand on tiptoe to peek again when he heard Rong Zhen's displeased voice say, "Pei Qing, what are you doing here?"

The person who arrived was Pei Qing.

Seeing Rong Zhen's clearly displeased expression, he looked away, touched his nose, and said, "I was going to the Prince's mansion to find you, but I saw Qingfeng standing outside this door, so I came in to check. Did I... interrupt your good time?"

Before Rong Zhen could say anything, he winked and said, "This young lady, wouldn't you be the girl who bit your lip last time? I suspected you were keeping a mistress, but you wouldn't admit it. Now I've caught you red-handed, haven't I?"

Upon hearing this, Rong Zhen subconsciously turned his head to glance at Yun Wei behind him, and then awkwardly scolded, "Don't talk nonsense!"

Pei Qing glanced behind him with a knowing look on her face. "I understand, I understand." Then, she raised her voice and said, "Miss, please don't mind what I said. I didn't mean any harm. I was just curious about which extraordinary woman had won over the Regent."

"Having seen you today, I can die in peace."

“You can die now,” Rong Zhen said coldly.

Pei Qing stared at him wide-eyed. "How could you be so heartless?"

Standing behind Rong Zhen, Yun Wei felt she couldn't remain silent any longer and spoke up to clarify, "This gentleman has mistaken me for someone else. The Regent and I are just ordinary friends, not that young lady." She couldn't help but wonder to herself: Did that young lady bite Rong Zhen's lip?
Which woman is so fierce?

It's unbelievable that Rong Zhen is so intense in private, and that he even keeps a mistress.

I never imagined that Rong Zhen would be this kind of person.

Pei Qing was taken aback. "You're not that young lady?"

Yunwei affirmed, "Of course not."

Pei Qing looked at Rong Zhen with surprise, "How many concubines do you have?"

"Get out!" Rong Zhen narrowed her phoenix eyes, her tone irritating.

"Don't be angry, it's not a bad thing." Pei Qing was not intimidated at all, but became more and more excited. "I didn't expect that you would be so amazing when you finally spoke. I am really ashamed of myself."

Rong Zhen's face darkened, and he simply ignored him. He turned to Yun Wei and said, "The fish soup is probably ready. Drink it before you go back." Before she could refuse, he added, "Those two fish are quite big. I can't finish the soup by myself. It would be a waste to throw it away. After you finish the soup, I will have Sang Qing take you back."

Pei Qing, standing to the side, looked at him with a sorrowful expression.

How could he be alone? Isn't he standing right here, alive and well? Didn't this guy ever think of offering him fish soup?
What a waste of his friends and his girlfriend!

Lord Pei thought to himself, "This is something I'm not happy about."

Yunwei's words of refusal caught in her throat.

Refusing at this point would seem like hiding something, so he simply agreed readily, saying, "Then I'll gladly accept your offer."

It was only a few steps from next door back to the Regent's Palace, but Yunwei noticed that Pei Qing had been watching her the whole way.

As she entered the Regent's Palace, she finally couldn't help but ask, "Why are you staring at me?"

"Because you are special," Pei Qing said truthfully.

"Special?" Yunwei asked, puzzled.

Pei Qing pointed to the man walking in front and said with a smile, "You are the first woman to appear next to him. I have known him for so many years, but I have never seen him take any woman seriously. Don't you think you are special?"

Upon hearing this, Yunwei explained, "You've really misunderstood. I just happened to do him a big favor. It's not what you think."

"Are you really not that young lady?" Pei Qing persisted.

Although Rong Zhen did not admit it just now, he was convinced in his heart that Yun Wei was that young lady.

Yun Wei paused for a moment, "You mean the Regent kept a mistress in a gilded cage, and... that young lady?"
