"Madam, Madam, Madam..."
Later.
"Madam, the general is back. I hear there's a woman with him."
Wen Jing nodded as usual, her expression calm. "Mm. Set her..."
She stopped mid-sentence, her eyes slowly shifting toward the doorway.
At the entrance, Chu Mao's gaze was dark. When his eyes met Wen Jing's, he stepped into the room and calmly finished her unfinished sentence: "Mm. Where are you going to set her up?"

[Upcoming Novel Blurb]
Recently, rumors have been flying through the capital: Wei Lang, heir to the Marquis of Chengbo, snatched a young woman off the street and carried her home over his shoulder.
Three days later, word came from the marquis's residence that Wei Lang had been beaten by the marquis until both his legs were broken and five of his ribs were cracked, yet he still refused to send the woman back.
Even while unconscious, he kept calling her name.
Everyone was amazed. It was the first time they'd seen the heir to the Marquis of Chengbo show such resolve.
In the end, even the marquis was at a loss.
Ten days later, an imperial edict sent the capital into an uproar.
As it turned out, after waking from a five-day coma, the heir to the Marquis of Chengbo had rushed to the palace and asked the Empress Dowager to grant him a marriage decree.
Jiang Hui had no idea that while she was in the capital selling her embroidery, someone would snatch her off the street and carry her back to his home. After that, she never managed to leave on her own again.
Wei Lang had committed countless misdeeds in the first half of his life. The greatest was publicly snatching the person he cherished most and bringing her home.
Later, Wei Lang loved nothing more than cuddling Jiang Hui and acting spoiled. In a playful tone, he'd say the most heartfelt things: "Huihui, this isn't a misdeed. It's a fate I made with my own hands."
