Thrown out of the house, the wet nurse enters the noble household and becomes a person of high statu

Before Liu Wenying could figure out what he meant, Pei Dingxuan's kiss landed on her lips.

The wound on his lips, inflicted by her bite yesterday, had not yet fully healed, and after their caresses and touch, the old wound reopened.

A faint, sweet, and slightly fishy taste spread in my mouth.

Liu Wenying was forced to breathe heavily by his domineering and forceful kiss, and bit down hard again.

Pei Dingxuan hissed softly, but did not pull away; instead, he kissed her even more forcefully.

Liu Wenying struggled, the chain on her wrist rattling wildly, the sounds chaotic and the silver light shimmering erratically.

She tried to kick him, but he pressed her knee down on her.

"Let go, let me go..."

She finally managed to create a small opening, her voice trembling.

But he wouldn't listen anymore, and pinned both of her hands above her head with one hand.

The silver chain on the bedpost was being pulled and swayed repeatedly. In desperation, she bit his shoulder.

With his teeth deeply embedded, he used all his strength, almost drawing blood.

The pain in her shoulder was sharp and piercing, but Pei Dingxuan was completely unaware of it. His arms tightened, holding her waist firmly, refusing to loosen them even slightly.

He even leaned down slightly, following the force of her bites, and gently moved closer to her lips, obsessively and madly.

He harbored an almost pathological obsession: as long as she was willing to eat, he would gladly let her devour his own flesh.

What harm is there in giving her all my flesh, blood, bones, and muscles?

Liu Wenying was completely stunned by his reckless behavior, feeling both angry and afraid.

She muttered angrily under her breath, "Pei Dingxuan, you're a madman!"

The man remained silent, yet continued without pause.

……

After it was over, Liu Wenying collapsed onto the brocade quilt, too weak to even lift her hand.

The silk ribbon around my wrist was soaked with sweat and clung to my skin, feeling cool and refreshing.

She vaguely thought that it was fortunate that she had this layer of clothing, otherwise her skin would have been chafed raw from those movements.

Before I could catch my breath, the door was pushed open again.

Pei Dingxuan brought in the same food as before, but it was freshly prepared and kept warm.

He changed his clothes as well and sat down by the bed. "Yingniang, an empty stomach is bad for your health, get up and eat something."

Liu Wenying didn't move, not out of defiance, but because she was simply too exhausted.

Fortunately, he reached out and supported her back, helping her sit up against the soft pillows on the headboard.

The movements were very light, even gentle, a stark contrast to how he had acted just moments before.

Refusing to eat resulted in his obsessive and tyrannical punishment.

Liu Wenying dared not confront him directly and thus compromised for the time being.

Her body was still trembling, but she obediently opened her mouth to eat the food he offered.

After finishing half a bowl of food, Liu Wenying turned her head away and said, "I can't eat anymore."

After sweating profusely, I didn't have much of an appetite.

Pei Dingxuan didn't insist. After wiping her lips, he took the leftover soup out for Zhu'er to deal with.

Then he lifted the covers, lay down, and pulled Liu Wenying into his arms.

"Go to sleep, I'm tired too." His voice was low and hoarse, with a hint of post-coital languor.

At first, Liu Wenying was able to tense up and dare not move at all.

But I was so tired, my body felt like it had been dismantled, leaving me utterly exhausted.

Finally, she succumbed to exhaustion and fell asleep in his arms.

Around midnight, a noise came from the roof, as if some tiles were breaking.

Pei Dingxuan hadn't slept much to begin with, and he sat up with keen awareness.

Liu Wenying was groggily awakened by his movements. "What's wrong?"

"You rest first, I'll go out and take a look."

Pei Dingxuan whispered some instructions and quietly left.

The moment the door closed, Liu Wenying woke up.

This was a rare moment of solitude for her, and the most likely opportunity to escape, which Liu Wenying was unwilling to give up.

He tugged at the chain, but the silver chain remained as sturdy as ever, and the clasp did not budge.

Liu Wenying was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan, scanning her surroundings for a way to break free of her shackles.

Just as she was in a state of confusion, a crack was punched open in the west window, and a gray shadow squeezed in through the gap.

The shadow was agile yet short, more like a wild beast than a human.

The shadow landed silently, stretching out its form, with gray fur standing on end, ears perked up, and gleaming green eyes.

It was a wolf.

Liu Wenying felt her blood run cold. She was about to call for help, not caring whether she could escape or not; saving her life was the most important thing.

But the wolf was extremely fast and pounced on him in an instant.

Liu Wenying nervously closed her eyes, waiting for the pain to begin.

The expected hoarseness didn't come; instead, my face was wet, with a warm, rough texture.

She opened her eyes shakily, and a huge wolf's head came close to her, sticking out its tongue to lick her face.

Its grayish tail wagged behind it, just like a dog seeing its owner.

Liu Wenying was stunned; there was no ferocity in the wolf's eyes, only a docile expression.

It licked her face, then her hands, making a soft, whimpering sound.

Liu Wenying quickly realized that it had been domesticated.

Since a domesticated wolf has come in, does that mean the person who tamed the wolf is also nearby?

Liu Wenying had an idea, and she looked down at her clothes.

Pei Dingxuan had already torn her inner garment to shreds, so a few more tears wouldn't matter.

She tore off a piece of fabric, bit her index finger, and wrote the words "help" on the cloth.

Then, she rolled up the fabric, and the gray wolf tilted its head to look at it before opening its mouth and grabbing the fabric.

"Whether I can get out depends on you."

Liu Wenying patted its head, and the gray wolf understood, lightly leaping onto the windowsill and slipping out through the crack.

After finishing everything, Liu Wenying slumped onto the bed, staring at the window, her heart pounding.

Just as the gray wolf disappeared, Pei Dingxuan returned.

Liu Wenying's heart was pounding; she was extremely nervous.

Pei Dingxuan walked to the window, the night wind lifting the hem of his clothes.

Liu Wenying held her breath and was so frightened that she dared not move an inch.

Fortunately, he did not investigate the reason for the open window, nor did he realize that a wolf had broken into the house.

Pei Dingxuan closed the windows tightly, shutting out the night wind and darkness outside.

After he finished, he turned around and went back to the bed. He reached out and gently embraced the stiff woman, carefully pulling her into his warm arms, and softly coaxed her, just like always.

"It's alright, go to sleep."

Liu Wenying leaned against him, her heart still pounding with fear.

Perhaps because it was too quiet, she couldn't help but ask, "What happened outside just now?"

Pei Dingxuan tightened his grip on his waist. "A stray cat came in and made a noise."

"oh."

The conversation came to an abrupt end.

She waited for a long time, but he made no further move.

Her eyelids grew heavy, and a hazy sleepiness enveloped her consciousness; she was just about to drift off to sleep.

Just then, his voice, filled with struggle, came from above.

"Yingniang, I lied to you."

With just a few words, Liu Wenying's sleepiness was instantly dispelled.

She roused herself, her eyes brightening slightly, and nestled in his arms, listening intently. She sensed that he was about to reveal the truth she wanted to know, and that the previous doubts were finally about to dissipate.

After a long silence, Pei Dingxuan seemed to have gathered his courage and laid bare the past before her.

"You used to work in the Duke of Yu's mansion. You were Ye'er's wet nurse and took good care of him as he grew up."

You also served the Eldest Princess; you were virtuous and reliable, and were appreciated by the late Emperor, who bestowed upon you the name Bu Ning Niangzi.

"You managed both estates in the suburbs of Beijing single-handedly. You were the owner of those two estates, shrewd and capable, and you managed them well."

You are not alone; you have a son and a daughter, your own flesh and blood.

With each word he spoke, his eyes grew more somber.

"Yingniang, it was my obsession that led me to forcibly erase your memories and trap you by my side."
