Jiaojiao is getting married, and the male leads fall for her and fight over her.

Chapter 221 She was tied up
Shen Shuyi endured it for a while, but when she saw that Pei Dongzhou was not only nibbling at her chin, but also trying to nibble at her lips, she couldn't take it anymore and loudly reminded him, "Young Master Cousin is drunk, get up!!"

He couldn't take advantage of his drunkenness to force himself on her; that would be wrong.

Pei Dongzhou had indeed been drinking and was a little drunk, but not that drunk. He was just angry at his cousin for being so cruel to him.

Oh, and to prevent his cousin from escaping again, he's going to tie her up.

Thinking of this, he took out the ribbon he had prepared beforehand and stepped forward to tie up his cousin who was always running away.

Shen Shuyi hadn't expected Pei Dongzhou to be so perverted. She loudly tried to stop him from doing such an unacceptable thing: "Your Highness, what you're doing is illegal. You work at the Dali Temple; if you were to abduct a woman..."

The next moment, Pei Dongzhou sealed her lips with a kiss: "Shut up."

Shen Shuyi: ...

Just as Pei Shizi had finished kissing her lips and she breathed a sigh of relief, Pei Dongzhou resumed tying her up.

"Young Master, it hurts so much, can you let me go?" Shen Shuyi managed to squeeze out two tears, hoping to see if her self-inflicted injury would work.

Unexpectedly, Pei Dongzhou wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes: "My cousin is good at lying. I won't believe her. She's just never suffered, which is why she keeps running away."

From now on, he will tie her up and prevent her from going anywhere.

Shen Shuyi couldn't tell whether Pei Dongzhou was drunk or not.

If he wasn't drunk, he wouldn't do something like that when he was sober. If he was drunk, he spoke clearly and even knew she was using a self-inflicted injury ploy.

I don't know if this person was pretending to be drunk on purpose to take liberties with her.

To her dismay, Pei Dongzhou not only tied her hands, but also her feet together. Then he hugged her and kissed and touched her, like a lecherous demon reincarnated.

At that moment, she was only thankful that her hands and feet were tied, otherwise she might have really been taken advantage of by him.

Afterwards, Pei Dongzhou went on and on about how she was heartless, cruel, and deceitful, and that she was a liar who had him completely fooled.

Finally, he held her and whispered, "I will never let go of my cousin in this lifetime. She is my wife, and she will die in my arms."

After that, Prince Pei fell silent. Shen Shuyi was forced to lean against him, her hands and feet bound. She tried to untie them, but ultimately failed.

Finally, she gave up struggling. Before going to sleep, she thought that at least her innocence was preserved, which was a blessing in disguise.

The next day, when Pei Dongzhou opened his eyes, he felt a warm and fragrant body in his arms.

He had been having vivid dreams all night, dreams that felt so real. He suddenly opened his eyes when he felt the woman in his arms, her touch so soft and fragrant.

When he saw his cousin sleeping pitifully in his arms, he was still a little confused.

Just then, his cousin opened her eyes and met his gaze.

"Why is my cousin in my bed?" Pei Dongzhou asked, puzzled.

Shen Shuyi laughed in anger upon hearing this: "Please, Young Master Pei, take a good look and see whose bed this is!"

Pei Dongzhou then saw the interior clearly; it was indeed not his guest room, but the room where his cousin lived.

Shen Shuyi raised her bound hands: "Could you please help me untie them, Cousin Prince?"

Pei Dongzhou then saw clearly that Shen Shuyi's hands and feet were tied up. His first thought was: Well done, once my cousin is tied up, she can't run away.

But he was saying, "Who tied her up? How could they do such a thing to my cousin!"

Shen Shuyi sneered, "You tied him up last night, didn't you, Cousin Pei? You did such a thing, yet you don't remember?" She wondered if Cousin Pei was pretending on purpose.

Pei Dongzhou was taken aback for a moment: "I tied him up?"

Why does he have no recollection of it at all?

"If it wasn't my cousin, the young master, who tied me up, was it a ghost? Cousin, the young master, please help me untie myself. My hands are killing me, and my body is stiff," Shen Shuyi quickly reminded him.

Pei Dongzhou hurriedly stepped forward to help Shen Shuyi untie the ropes, but after untying half of them, he suddenly didn't want to continue.

But he also knew that girls are delicate and couldn't stand being tied up like that all night.

In the end, his emotions prevailed over his reason, and he helped Shen Shuyi untie herself. However, he still felt that he should tie up his cousin so that she wouldn't have a chance to escape.

Shen Shuyi's body was numb, and it took her a while to recover after being untied.

She quickly got out of bed, with Pei Dongzhou following closely behind. He said calmly, "We'll set off back to the capital today. Cousin had better behave herself on the road. If she doesn't behave and tries to escape, I'll tie her up for life!"

Shen Shuyi turned around and glared at Pei Dongzhou: "Can't I just not go back?"

"No way!" Pei Dongzhou said, starting to wash up.

Shen Shuyi knew that things had come to this point and there was no way to avoid returning to the Marquis's residence.

But this time when she goes back, she'll definitely marry Pei Dongzhou, right? He's been looking for her for so long, he won't let her go easily.

Pei Dongzhou certainly saw Shen Shuyi's sickly appearance, and he knew why his cousin was in such a state—it was simply because she didn't want to return to the Marquis's mansion.

My cousin must have been having a lot of fun while she was away.
He pretended not to see his cousin's reluctance and watched her wash up afterward. He only felt at ease when this woman was under his watchful eye; he couldn't let her have another chance to escape.

Shen Shuyi really didn't expect Pei Dongzhou to be so bored. He watched her wash up and even watched her get dressed, without knowing how to avoid suspicion at all.

Thinking back to the fact that she and he slept in the same bed last night, she felt that it was a bit too late to talk about avoiding suspicion now.

While she was complaining in her heart, Qingfeng brought over breakfast.

Pei Dongzhou sat down to eat without calling her over.

She plopped down next to Pei Dongzhou and complained, "Your Highness was cuter before. The current Your Highness is too annoying."

Pei Dongzhou glanced at her indifferently: "Some people are ungrateful wretches. No matter how good you are to them, they will not know how to be grateful and will only run away. In that case, we might as well try a different approach."

Shen Shuyi: ...

Without a doubt, the phrase "ungrateful wretch" was used to describe her.

Could the other method he mentioned be the way he tied her up last night? She doesn't want to be kept as a prisoner by him.

"Please eat more, Cousin Prince. Today's breakfast was quite delicious. Of course, it's also possible that it tasted especially good because I was eating with you, Cousin Prince." Shen Shuyi was a woman of flexibility and resilience; playing a tragic role was really not her thing.

If she's not as free as she used to be, at the very least she shouldn't have to live with her hands and feet tied down anymore.

She suddenly remembered that she was in a book, and the man next to her was the perverted male protagonist, who was capable of anything, as last night was the best proof.

Therefore, she has to get along well with the male lead and can't be locked in a dark room.
