The daughter of the Marquis is too delicate, the abstinent prince pinches her waist and loves her

Chapter 91 Terrible Emotions
Sheng Yunqing raised his hand to stroke her head, bit his lip in fear, frowned and said, "Those men couldn't touch you just now because I had cast a protective spell on you. They couldn't touch you, and Bai Qianci naturally couldn't touch you either."

Hearing this, Sheng Yueying burst into tears and threw herself into Sheng Yunqing's arms, saying, "Thank you, cousin, thank you for protecting me! It's all my fault. I almost caused a disaster..."

"It's not your fault," she comforted Sheng Yueying in her arms, glared at Bai Qianci coldly, and said, "His fault cannot be blamed on you."

Bai Qianci's eyes were filled with sarcasm as he said, "What a deep sisterly love, Sheng Yunqing. You have played me around like a fool."

"Bah! You're obviously the one who's playing us for a fool. From the beginning to the end, you approached the Sheng family and my cousin just for this day!" Sheng Yueying yelled at him, leaning down and slapping him hard on the face a few times, "Bai Qianci, I'm going to smash your face!"

"Alright." Sheng Yunqing said, "Smash his face. Do you still want your hands?"

After she finished speaking, Sheng Yueying was still not satisfied and slapped him a few more times, until her hands were tired and painful, then she stopped.

Bai Qianci gritted his teeth from beginning to end and remained silent. After struggling with the knots on his body in vain, he just lowered his head and stared at the ground, his eyes full of humiliation and anger.

When has the pampered Third Young Master of the Duke's Mansion ever been treated like this?
I'm afraid that the treatment I'll receive later will be even worse...

Sheng Yunqing stared at Bai Qianci for a long time, looking at the corner of his mouth that was bitten and bleeding, and said, "Bai Qianci, what have I done to offend you that you have to go to such great lengths to set a trap for me?"

Bai Qianci sneered and said, "You followed me a long time ago, how could there be so many problems?"

Sheng Yunqing stared at him in disbelief and said, "If you can't have me, you want to destroy me? What is this? How can there be such terrible emotions in this world?"

Bai Qianci looked up at her. His originally fair face was now covered with countless slap marks and traces of blood from scratches. Under the hazy moonlight, the young man in white who was riding so far away no longer had the unattainable cold aura he had before.

The girl in his eyes looked down at him with disgust, and the details of the past few days frequently emerged in her mind.

She paid for his meal in the carriage, her generous and elegant smile, her anxious and guilty look after he was shot, her dashing and heroic look when she looked back at him in the polo field...

If she had been willing to accept his paper lotus after being shot by an arrow that day...

If he was stuck in a quagmire that day, she would be willing to accompany him regardless of everything and patiently listen to his true feelings...

If she wasn't so cold and distant to him, there were many times when he really wanted to hold her hand and run away with her at all costs!

That handsome face turned dirty, and his expression was full of playfulness: "No, I wanted to destroy you from the first moment I saw you, but later I felt a little compassion for you."

"Compassion?" Sheng Yunqing thought it was ridiculous and glared at him angrily, "Bai Qianci, you are worse than a beast!"

She raised her hand and was about to slap him, but then frowned and retracted her hand. When Bai Qianci was confused, he saw her take out a clean handkerchief from her sleeve, wipe her hands, and then throw it on the ground casually.

She wanted to beat him because her hands were dirty.

She shouted outside, "Su Lan, you can come in now."

Su Lan, who had been waiting outside for a long time, stepped into the room upon hearing the sound. She turned her head and glared at Bai Qianci, saying, "Fairy sister, how are you going to deal with this lunatic?"

Sheng Yunqing flicked his sleeves, turned his body sideways and stopped looking at him, saying, "Take him away first, and take him to the Dali Temple early tomorrow morning. You must give Yueying an explanation."

"Yes."

The two guards took the immobile Bai Qianci away and locked him in the woodshed. The room was silent. Suddenly, the candle went out, and the room, which was originally only dimly lit, became pitch black. Sheng Yueying screamed and subconsciously hugged Sheng Yunqing's arm: "Cousin, I'm scared... It's so dark..."

Sheng Yunqing raised his hand and gently patted the back of her hand. He walked to the table with the moonlight reflected from the window pane and lit a new candle with a tinder. The room was filled with warm light.

She lowered her head and looked at the candle on the table, which had turned into a pool of red wax. She said softly, "I don't have the ability to bring this candle back to life. If I hadn't cast a spell on you beforehand, it would have been of no use if you had really encountered an accident."

Sheng Yueying raised her hand to wipe her tears and said, "Cousin, I..."

Sheng Yunqing stroked the back of her head and said, "You are tired too, rest early."

Sheng Yueying lowered her head and sniffed, her voice choking as she said, "Cousin, won't you punish me?"

"Of course I will punish you." Sheng Yunqing sat on the throne, looked up at her and said, "You are not allowed to go out tomorrow. Rewrite the homework assigned by the teacher three more times for me."

Sheng Yueying's eyes were bright. She had never been so happy after being punished with homework. She smiled and said through her tears: "Yes, I will definitely finish it carefully!"

Seeing Sheng Yueying's departing back, Sheng Yunqing's eyes dimmed.

There will definitely be unrest in the Marquis' Mansion tomorrow, so it's better for this girl not to show up.

It was already dawn, but there was no light.

The sky was covered with dark clouds and it started to rain heavily before the morning. The maid replaced the extinguished lamps in the eaves with new candles.

The housekeeper hurried to Sheng Yunqing's door and said to her, "Miss, Duke Bai is here. He looks very unhappy and wants to see you."

Now that Sheng Yukun is gone and Madam Sheng is old, the Marquis' Mansion is run by Sheng Yunqing. Moreover, Bai Qianci's affairs were originally related to Sheng Yunqing.

She looked at the dark sky, took a deep breath, and said, "Let's go."

In the hall, Duke Bai was dressed in luxurious grey brocade robes, his broad back never bent, and despite being over fifty years old, he exuded a vigorous and powerful aura.

Sheng Yunqing looked at him. His face was dark, his triangular eyes were fierce and cold, and there was a foul aura around him. He had killed many people.

She bowed her head and saluted him: "Sheng Yunqing greets His Excellency the Duke."

She politely asked the maid to prepare tea and snacks, invited him to take a seat, and then sat down beside him.

"I heard that my son is in your house." Duke Bai sat on the chair, tapping the armrest rhythmically with his slightly wrinkled fingers.

Sheng Yunqing nodded and said, "He is only temporarily staying in the Zhenbei Marquis's residence. Once the rain stops, he will be escorted to the Dali Temple."

"Escort? Humph." Duke Bai's eyes were filled with cruelty, and he said, "What an arrogant girl! Even if I was confused for a moment and had some misunderstanding, shouldn't I be sent to the Duke's Mansion first before making a judgment?"

Sheng Yunqing raised the corners of his lips with a fake smile and said, "I don't think there is any misunderstanding."
