Its entire body even exudes a faint fragrance!
However, there was still a slight change in Dou Zhao's expression; he would occasionally furrow his brow slightly.
It was obvious that the girl was dreaming, but what was she dreaming about? Wei Tingyu was quite curious.
"Hmm...no..." Just then, Dou Zhao murmured a few words, and Wei Tingyu keenly caught the key information in them.
This phrase sounds familiar...? Dou Zhao kept telling herself "no" last night!
However, when Wei Tingyu recalled the girl's journey from initial resistance to resignation and eventual cooperation, he found it both funny and sweet!
Could Dou Zhao's dream be related to herself? Or is it a wet dream?
While Wei Tingyu was lost in thought, he suddenly noticed that Dou Zhao's brows furrowed slightly, and her cute little face instantly became pitiful.
Thinking that he had indeed been a bit too crazy last night, he felt a little guilty, so he reached out and cupped Dou Zhao's face, then gently kissed her between her eyebrows.
However, this gentle kiss woke Dou Zhao right out of his sleep!
"Hmm...where is this..." Her beautiful eyes slowly opened, revealing a confused expression, and she muttered to herself.
Good heavens! Did he forget who he is after sleeping so soundly?
Wei Tingyu mentally complained a couple of times, but still smiled and explained to Dou Zhao, "This is the Jining Marquis's residence, our wedding room!"
"The Marquis of Jining's mansion...the wedding...the bridal chamber...you..." Dou Zhao seemed to take a few seconds to process the meaning of Wei Tingyu's words, and then the confusion in her eyes gradually cleared.
"What are you doing..." Dou Zhao, realizing what was happening, looked at Wei Tingyu's face so close to hers, shoved him away with a snap, and then sat up quickly like a startled deer.
Then, realizing that her current situation seemed a bit awkward, she immediately pulled the sheet over herself, leaving only her face above her neck exposed, and stared warily at Wei Tingyu in front of her.
"My wife! Why are you so wary and resistant to your husband?" Wei Tingyu wasn't surprised. After all, given Dou Zhao's personality, she would definitely be unable to accept it once she realized what was happening.
However, he still made a joke, because if the two of them remained silent, the situation would be a bit too awkward.
"You...you bad person..." At this moment, Dou Zhao had completely remembered everything that happened last night...wasn't she just forcibly picked up by this guy and thrown onto the wedding bed...and then...she went from being a girl to a woman!
Thinking of this, Dou Zhao glanced to the side and saw two bright red plum blossoms on the bed. Then her face, which had been quite angry, flushed red again.
"How am I not a good person?" Wei Tingyu, seeing Dou Zhao's expression, naturally understood what the girl was shy about. He simply shrugged helplessly and said, "Why don't you tell me, my wife? If I have any faults, I can correct them; if not, I can strive to improve!"
"You...I...I..." Dou Zhao was so angry that her teeth itched. She thought to herself, "How could you not know what I did to you? This guy is really too bad!"
However, just as she was about to give him a good scolding, she realized that she didn't seem to have any right to yell at him!
After all, the two were already husband and wife, and she had married into the Jining Marquis's mansion and become the Marquis's wife. So, on their wedding night, they should naturally consummate their marriage!
Even if I take this matter to the capital's government offices, I can't win!
Dou Zhao was originally a very intelligent woman. In this life, she desperately wanted to do business and make money in order to break free from the control of her family. Therefore, her ability to judge the situation was also very strong.
Although I did miscalculate last night, losing my most precious virginity to Wei Tingyu, there's no use dwelling on it now.
On the contrary, this opportunity can help establish a cooperative relationship that is more beneficial to one's future!
"My lord! Please forgive my rudeness just now!" Thinking of this, Dou Zhao immediately suppressed the dissatisfaction and anger in her eyes, and forced a smile as she spoke to Wei Tingyu.
Wow! They really know how to bend and stretch! Wei Tingyu couldn't help but click his tongue in amazement at the sight!
Sure enough, if it weren't for my arrival as a transmigrator with a cheat-like advantage, this world might really have been manipulated by this powerful female protagonist!
"No problem, no problem!" Wei Tingyu, who had already guessed what the girl was going to do, waved his hand nonchalantly, then put his arm around her shoulder and pulled her into his arms!
Dou Zhao hadn't expected that Wei Tingyu would make unwanted advances at her so early in the morning. So, she didn't have time to dodge before he grabbed her shoulder and pulled her forcefully into his arms.
Dou Zhao, who had initially wanted to struggle, was slightly taken aback. Before she could even raise her little fist, Wei Tingyu's large hand had already subdued her! Then, their four lips collided once again...
"Hmm..." Dou Zhao was stunned for a moment, and then after two or three seconds he was completely defeated once again!
Last night's kiss made her lose herself, and Wei Tingyu's trick this morning was still incredibly effective!
Alright! Let him take advantage of us now, and maybe we can get more favorable terms during the negotiations later.
Besides! Wei Tingyu already took all my people last night, so what's a kiss? Anyone in business knows that you always have to pay some price and take some risks to get what you want!
After giving himself a few words of advice, Dou Zhao closed his eyes with a clear conscience and let Wei Tingyu do as he pleased!

Chapter 5: Settle Accounts Clearly with Your Wife!
"My lord! Please wait a moment!" After a long kiss that seemed to last forever, Dou Zhao quickly took advantage of the moment when their lips parted and he could still speak, cupping Wei Tingyu's face in his hands and speaking.
Her intention was naturally to stop Wei Tingyu from kissing her, but she was completely unaware of just how ambiguous her current action was!
"What's wrong?" Wei Tingyu asked directly, holding such a beautiful woman in his arms and looking at her face, which was flushed red, whether from shyness or lack of oxygen.
To be honest, Wei Tingyu's heart was almost out of control at this moment! After all, the Dou Zhao he had seen in the TV series and the Dou Zhao who was now in his arms like a little lamb were completely different beings.
"Please release me, my lord! I have something important to tell you!" Dou Zhaoming saw the lust in Wei Tingyu's eyes and was immediately startled. At this moment, she couldn't help but think of the scene in the bridal chamber last night.
Knowing full well that he could not possibly withstand another favor, Dou Zhao even had a pleading look in his eyes.
Seeing this, Wei Tingyu nodded and released her.
After all, if Dou Zhao were to cry, things would get even more complicated! So he simply released the beauty from his arms!
"Thank you for your mercy, Lord Marquis!" Dou Zhao let out a heavy sigh of relief, then knelt properly beside Wei Tingyu and bowed.
The current politeness and awkwardness were intentional, meant to cool down Wei Tingyu's burning desire and pour some cold water on it.
Wei Tingyu understood this, but he also knew that it was unlikely that Dou Zhao would completely devote herself to him at the moment. Not to mention that this girl had lived two lives, and she already harbored considerable wariness and repulsion towards the ex-husband she had replaced.
Her current obedience and docility are just an act in front of me!
He even thought of Zhen Huan after she returned to the palace from Ganlu Temple in this situation! Dou Zhao probably has similar thoughts to Niu Hulu Zhen Huan right now, and may even be harboring thoughts of revenge against him!
Fortunately, Dou Zhao doesn't have much interaction with the other male characters in the drama, so he's not as unfortunate as the Fourth Master, who was cuckolded and forced to become a father.
"There's no need for so many formalities between husband and wife!" Thinking this, Wei Tingyu waved his hand and then asked, "Is there something you want to tell me?"
"I have a good deal to offer, I wonder if Your Excellency would like it..." Dou Zhao took a deep breath, then looked at Wei Tingyu with a serious expression and spoke slowly, word by word.
In her mind, the Marquis of Jining's mansion had been running a deficit for many years and was simply short of money! If she heard about a good deal, Wei Tingyu would definitely ask questions without hesitation, thus falling into her trap from the very first step!
"Not interested!" Wei Tingyu, however, did not follow the usual path and simply waved his hand and said.
"Ah..." Dou Zhao was dumbfounded!
Not interested? What about my plans after that?
Besides, isn't the Marquis of Jining short of money? How can they turn down a lucrative business that's practically handed to them?
“My lord! This deal can make the Marquis’s mansion a lot of money…” Dou Zhao took a deep breath and clenched her little pink fists, then tried to ignite Wei Tingyu’s curiosity.
"What would I, a dignified marquis, need so much silver for?" However, Wei Tingyu waved his hand, interrupting Dou Zhao's next words.
"My lord... I heard that the Marquis's mansion is short of money..." Dou Zhao almost turned and left, but then she thought that she was now the Marquis's wife, so where could she go? She could only grit her teeth and continue to speak patiently.
"Isn't that what you're here for?" However, Wei Tingyu shamelessly looked at her and nodded, saying, "I heard you're doing quite a bit of business! Isn't the money you're making the same money the Marquis's mansion is making?"
"I..." Dou Zhao was completely dumbfounded upon hearing this...
Good heavens! I've seen shameless people before, but never anyone this shameless! Just as I thought, this ex-husband is exactly the same as in my past life—utterly hopeless!
I was just wondering if he had changed, but now it seems he hasn't changed at all.
"Only the most spineless man would use a woman's dowry!" Dou Zhao clenched his fists so tightly that his nails almost dug into his flesh, desperately trying to keep his voice down so as not to explode: "Your Excellency wouldn't want the Jining Marquis's Mansion to be ridiculed, would you?"
"As long as you don't tell and I don't tell, who would know?!" Wei Tingyu, however, acted nonchalantly, even crossing his legs while lying on the bed.
Good heavens! You're trying to make me suffer in silence! So, after I give the dowry to your Jining Marquis's mansion, I can't even tell anyone?
Dou Zhao was completely dumbfounded! She could hardly find any words to describe her husband in front of her. He was simply the best of the best, and he could talk about being a kept man so confidently!
"My lord! Please forgive me for saying something unpleasant!" Dou Zhao took a few deep breaths, barely suppressing the curses that were about to burst forth, and then said with a look of disdain, "My dowry will not be used to subsidize the Marquis's mansion!"
"Why?" Wei Tingyu was not angry at all; instead, he laughed.
"As the saying goes, even close brothers should keep clear accounts! If brothers from the same family should be like this, then husband and wife, who are united by marriage, should be even more clear about their accounts!" Dou Zhao had not yet noticed that Wei Tingyu's expression had become a little strange, and continued to lay out his ideas.
“Oh, I see! You mean even husband and wife need to keep clear accounts?” Wei Tingyu nodded and asked again.
“That’s right!” Dou Zhao finally breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, this guy could still understand human speech.
"Okay, I understand! Now tell me about your business!" Wei Tingyu thought to himself, "That's exactly what I wanted to hear. Just don't regret it later!"
"My lord! I am willing to use my dowry to help cover the deficit of the manor!" Upon hearing this, Dou Zhao quickly brought up the excuse she had prepared beforehand: "However..."
"What are your conditions?" Wei Tingyu knew, of course, that this girl wouldn't be willing to spend so much money right away.
"Please, Your Excellency, draw up a document! Our marriage is only for three years! After three years, we will divorce!" Dou Zhao blinked and then said, "For these three years, I am willing to shoulder the heavy responsibility of being the wife of the Marquis, and will do my best to manage everything in the Marquis's mansion! And I guarantee that when we divorce after three years, I will leave the Marquis's mansion with a surplus of 50,000 taels of silver!"
Good heavens! She was free to be the housekeeper for three years, and she even subsidized all the expenses of the Marquis's mansion during those three years, leaving the mansion with 50,000 taels of silver in the end!
No wonder Dou Zhao was so confident in marrying into the family with these conditions. If it were the original Wei Tingyu, she would never have refused!
Sure enough, this girl has money now, she speaks with confidence!
However, Wei Tingyu doesn't care about this mere 50,000 taels of silver right now, and he certainly doesn't covet Dou Zhao's dowry!
He wants the woman who is the female lead!
“What if I say… I disagree?!” Wei Tingyu chuckled, then looked at Dou Zhao and said, word by word!
