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

Chapter 44 Extreme Mission: Climb into Pei Dongzhou's Bed!
Shen Shuyi stopped in her tracks, feigning obedience: "Does Your Highness have any further instructions?"

Xia Nianchu looked at Shen Shuyi, then at Pei Dongzhou, and suddenly realized that without her knowledge, the two had become close and seemed quite familiar with each other.

She was secretly alarmed and quickly advised, "Cousin, why not talk things out? Why bother arguing with Cousin Shen?"

"When did it become Xia's place to interrupt me?!" Pei Dongzhou, however, didn't understand the concept of chivalry and retorted coldly.

Xia Nianchu immediately lost face, and her expression was quite interesting.

She was on the verge of tears, looking at Pei Dongzhou with a resentful gaze, as if she were looking at a heartless man.

Shen Shuyi silently lit a candle for herself, feeling that she was superfluous in the room.

She didn't want to become part of the male and female leads' relationship, so she tried to minimize her presence.

"Qingyun, see Cousin Xia out!" Pei Dongzhou coldly ordered her to leave.

Xia Nianchu's tears, which she had been holding back, finally fell, especially since Shen Shuyi saw her predicament, which made her feel humiliated.

She covered her face and wept, then rushed out of the East Garden.

Shen Shuyi hadn't expected this outcome. She stood there awkwardly, unsure how to react.

"Sit down," Pei Dongzhou ordered coldly.

Shen Shuyi took her seat as instructed, but just as she was wondering what to do, the system started causing trouble:

[Extreme Mission Challenge: Climb into Pei Dongzhou's bed tonight!]

Shen Shuyi: !!!

This is going to be the death of her.

Pei Dongzhou had just ruthlessly driven Xia Nianchu away, yet she still dared to court death at this critical juncture. Getting into Pei Shizi's bed was harder than climbing to heaven for her; she might as well die first.

Seeing that Shen Shuyi's face suddenly turned pale, Pei Dongzhou thought she was having an attack and stepped forward to ask, "Cousin, are you feeling unwell?"

Shen Shuyi actually hoped that she would be unwell, so that she would have an excuse to rely on Pei Dongzhou.

The problem was that she couldn't be too sick, otherwise she would be sent back to Fusang Institution. But she couldn't say she wasn't sick either, so she wouldn't have an excuse to stay in Dongyuan.

It's a bit difficult to strike the right balance.

She shook her head, feigning dizziness, and said, "I feel a little dizzy. I'll probably feel better after sitting for a while."

Seeing that her face was completely pale, Pei Dongzhou believed her and asked, "Should we find the family physician to examine my cousin?"

Shen Shuyi was afraid he would see a doctor; her goal was to get into his bed, not to be sent away by the doctor.

The question is, how exactly do you mean "climb into Pei Dongzhou's bed tonight"? Do you mean you have to sleep here all night to complete the task?

Fortunately, Pei Dongzhou's favorability towards her isn't too bad right now, so she still has a chance to try.

"To be honest, cousin, I'm feeling much better lately. My grandmother is getting old, and I don't want her to worry about me. I often experience dizziness, but it will probably go away after a rest. Cousin, may I find a place here to rest for a while?"

Shen Shuyi pinched the tender flesh on the inside of her thigh hard, and the sharp pain finally forced out a few crystal tears.

She tilted her head slightly, tears hanging perfectly on her eyelashes, reflecting fragmented light under the lamp.

Pei Dongzhou's gaze met those beautiful, tearful eyes. The girl's tears were on the verge of falling, her eyes tinged with a faint red, like peach blossoms dampened by rain, making her utterly pitiful. But he was a cold-blooded man, replying gently, "I'll escort my cousin back to Fusang Academy."

Shen Shuyi had expected this outcome. If Pei Dongzhou really wanted her to stay, he must have lost his mind.

No normal man would leave her in the East Garden, right? Especially not the Prince Pei, who values ​​his reputation above all else.
Shen Shuyi grabbed the back of the chair in a flustered manner: "I... I can't move, I'm so dizzy, I need to lie down for a while..."

Seeing Shen Shuyi's pained expression, Pei Dongzhou was at a loss for what to do.

He looked at Qingzhu, who was extremely anxious but dared not say it too obviously.

He felt that the young lady was deliberately clinging to the young master. The young master was such a shrewd person that there was no reason why he couldn't see that the young lady had ulterior motives and was reverting to her old ways.

Is the young lady planning to do that disgusting thing of climbing into someone's bed again?
Seeing that Qingzhu was standing there without reacting, Pei Dongzhou felt that he couldn't blame Qingzhu. He couldn't very well ask Qingzhu to help his cousin Shen; he didn't have the guts to do that.

Left with no other choice, Pei Dongzhou had to step forward and help Shen Shuyi up himself.

Shen Shu was pleased that Prince Pei had come to him of his own accord, but he dared not show it too obviously.

She gripped Pei Dongzhou's sleeve tightly, trying her best not to touch his arm, lest the male lead dislike her.

Pei Dongzhou naturally noticed this small detail as well. If it were before, Cousin Shen would have definitely taken the opportunity to snuggle into his arms. Although she was feeling unwell at the moment, she still remembered to avoid suspicion and refrained from physical contact with him. After all, she had matured and was no longer as reckless as before.

"Cousin, may I rest here for a bit before going back? I... I'm so dizzy..." Shen Shuyi said this with a guilty conscience.

She felt that Pei Dongzhou definitely wouldn't agree, but she couldn't think of any other way; she couldn't just faint. If she did, he might pack her up and send her back to Fusangyuan.

Pei Dongzhou felt this was inappropriate and naturally refused: "Absolutely not!"

"But I'm so dizzy, can't I just find a place to rest for a while before going back?" Shen Shuyi tugged at Pei Dongzhou's sleeve, looking at him expectantly.

Hopefully, he will have mercy and let her lie here for a while.

This is an extreme mission, and the deadline is tonight. If she fails to complete the mission, who knows what the consequences will be.

The system is a capricious and emotionless machine, and it won't show her any mercy.

Before Pei Dongzhou could speak, he saw Shen Shuyi release his sleeve and stumble towards the main room.

Shen Shuyi had observed before that this was Pei Dongzhou's bedroom. Since the system had asked her to climb into Pei Dongzhou's bed, it could only be Pei Dongzhou's bed.

Seeing Shen Shuyi's unreserved manner, Qingzhu immediately stepped forward to block her path: "This is the young master's bedroom, Miss, you've come to the wrong place."

Shen Shuyi chuckled awkwardly, "I was a little dizzy and didn't see clearly. I thought this was your room."

Pei Dongzhou frowned upon hearing this.

Judging from what Cousin Shen said, if this were Qingzhu's room, she could go in and rest.
"Qingzhu, could you help me up? I'm so dizzy..." Shen Shuyi said, staggering forward a couple of steps, and thus entered Pei Dongzhou's bedroom in a natural way.

Qingzhu: ...

He looked at the young master, hoping that the young master would keep an eye on Miss Shen Biao.

Is there no justice in this world? This woman actually dared to enter the young master's bedroom so brazenly. Even a blind person could see what wicked thoughts that young lady is harboring.

If he weren't a man who couldn't touch this scheming young lady, he would have chased her away long ago!
