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

Chapter 34 Cousin, you should know your place and not provoke the men of the Pei family!
Pei Dongzhou realized he had lost his composure; he simply couldn't stand this woman's flirtatious nature, her promiscuous behavior was truly hateful.

He realized he was still clutching Shen Shuyi's clothes, and just as he was about to let go, he heard her say, "Cousin, are you going to tear my clothes?"

Pei Dongzhou laughed instead of getting angry, thinking to himself that she really dared to think that way. He seemed to be indiscriminate in his pursuit of anything.

"It's not appropriate for my cousin to do this, why don't I do it myself?" Shen Shuyi said cautiously.

She had seen many scenarios like this, where the man would tear a woman's clothes off at will. Why was Prince Pei doing this too?
Isn't he afraid of being blackmailed by her?
Shen Shuyi met Pei Dongzhou's inscrutable gaze and thought she had touched on the young master's secret.

Forget it, she'll do it herself; that way she can save money on a dress. She knows that the male leads hate women who throw themselves at them.

With her being so proactive, he would definitely lose all interest in her.

She touched her blouse, unbuttoned a button, revealing a patch of snow-white skin on her chest.

Pei Dongzhou pursed his lips, and without warning, he remembered the dream he had.

The woman in his dream was naked, with skin as white as snow, like a fairy, clinging to him relentlessly...

He pushed Shen Shuyi away as if he had been electrocuted and quickly got out of bed.

Caught off guard, Shen Shuyi was roughly thrown to the inside of the bed by Pei Dongzhou, nearly hitting her head.

She had no idea what he was up to. Wasn't he the one who wanted to tear her clothes? Why was he unhappy now that she did it herself?

So, the young master is really hard to please.

She silently grumbled to herself, but then heard the young master Pei, who had his back to her, coldly say, "Cousin, you should know your place and not provoke the men of the Pei family!"

Shen Shuyi thought to herself that she didn't intend to provoke him, so there was no need for Prince Pei to go to such lengths to warn her.

On the contrary, it was he, the young master, who was alone with her in a room, and he had just pushed her onto the bed. If others saw this, he wouldn't be able to explain himself even if he had eight mouths.

However, whatever he says goes, and she should just comply and respond accordingly.

“What you say is true, Cousin. Why don’t you go out first, Cousin? I’m afraid that if others see you staying in my room, it will damage your reputation.” Shen Shuyi was very relaxed now that she had no mission to complete.

Pei Dongzhou glanced back and saw Shen Shuyi lying on the couch, her black hair disheveled, her red lips curving into a lazy smile, as if she were exchanging glances with him.

Prince Pei frowned slightly, finding Shen Shuyi's "dissolute" behavior unacceptable.

"Cousin, please have some self-respect!!"

After saying that, he slammed the door and left.

Pei Nanzhou and Pei Xizhou, who were waiting outside, turned around upon hearing the sound. When they saw the folds in Pei Dongzhou's robes, they both frowned.

Even though they hadn't been eavesdropping, the conversation coming from the bedroom had given them quite a bit of imagination.

Looking at the wrinkles on Pei Shizi's clothes now, it's clear that he and his cousin Shen had a complicated relationship.

Of course, this is definitely not Prince Pei's fault; if anything, it is Cousin Shen's fault.

They had heard it clearly: it was Cousin Shen who said she tore her own clothes. What respectable girl would say such a shameless thing?
Prince Pei clearly intended to warn Cousin Shen, but he was almost ruined by her. This woman is indeed extremely dangerous.

"Is your older brother alright?" Pei Xizhou looked at Pei Dongzhou with sympathy.

When they were here, Cousin Shen still tried to seduce Prince Pei into bed. If they weren't here, who knows what outrageous things Cousin Shen would do.

"From now on, when you see Cousin Shen, try to stay away. Be careful not to get entangled with her and unable to get away." Pei Dongzhou regained his usual gentle demeanor, behaving like a good older brother.

Shen Shuyi, who was eavesdropping at the dormitory door, secretly grumbled to herself.

Is she that scary?
She will have many more missions to complete in the future, and if they avoid her like the plague, the difficulty of those missions will increase. "I think you should be more careful, brother. Cousin Shen seemed to be trying to offer herself to you just now," Pei Xizhou warned Pei Dongzhou.

Shen Shuyi only wanted to reply to Pei Xizhou with a "hehe".

She only offered herself to Prince Pei because she was tired of living.

After the Pei brothers left, Shen Shuyi finally emerged from her bedroom.

A-Jian immediately checked Shen Shuyi's entire body to make sure that her clothes were not torn or tattered before she felt at ease.

Just then, Pei Nanzhou returned.

Shen Shuyi immediately suppressed her smile: "Is there anything else, cousin?"

"Are your cousin and brother very familiar with each other?" Pei Nanzhou said, glancing around the Fusang Courtyard.

When he entered the west wing and saw that the mosquito net was missing a piece, he confirmed his guess. The person who lured him to the bamboo grove that night was none other than his cousin Shen, but he didn't know why she had used such a roundabout method.

She was even unwilling to admit that she was the one who played that piece that night.

If she was trying to get his attention this way, then she succeeded.

“I’m not familiar with my cousin, the Crown Prince. He probably saw it too; he’s very wary of me.” Shen Shuyi followed, puzzled. “What is he looking for?”

Because Pei Nanzhou had his back to her, she couldn't see his expression, which was why she couldn't guess why he had come to the west wing.

Pei Nanzhou turned around nonchalantly, his voice indifferent: "Brother, are you really not familiar with your cousin?"

The male protagonist in front of her had a cold and aloof face, as if nothing in the world could catch his eye, but Shen Shuyi felt a sense of danger.

“My cousin, the Crown Prince, always avoids me when he sees me. How could I possibly be familiar with him…”

Before she could finish speaking, she suddenly felt a cool sensation on her cheek—Pei Nanzhou's hand had brushed against her face, startling her so much that she took a half step back and bumped into the wooden table behind her, with nowhere left to retreat.

What's even more terrifying is that this person still maintained an aloof demeanor, even slowly stroking the back of the hand that had just touched her.

Pei Nanzhou felt his heart beat a fraction faster as he felt the smooth touch on the back of his hand. It was exactly the same as the soft feeling in his palm before. Did this mean that the young master Pei might have brought her into the bedroom just because he was attracted by her beauty?
Shen Shuyi, who was always thinking about surviving, was naturally unaware that she also possessed beauty.

Although Pei Nanzhou's sudden touch on her face was abrupt, considering that she had just held his hand, they were even.

"A-Jian, see your cousin out." Shen Shuyi gave him the order to leave.

When there are no missions, it's best to avoid interacting with the male leads as much as possible.

Pei Nanzhou replied, "No rush. Grandmother asked us to help my cousin find a husband. Cousin, tell me what kind of person you like, and I'll keep an eye out for you."

Shen Shuyi looked at Pei Nanzhou in surprise, feeling that this didn't fit his aloof male lead persona.

Shouldn't he avoid her whenever he sees her?

"I don't know what kind of person I like. I'll tell my cousin when I've thought it through."

The next moment, Pei Nanzhou suddenly took her hand and intertwined their fingers. For a moment, she didn't know how to control her expression.

It's... kind of speechless.

　Happy Dragon Boat Festival, my darlings!
