Qiao Xuan blushed, her cheeks turning a rosy hue. “No, no flirting!”

The words made her heart flutter, leaving her in a state of disarray. Embarrassment washed over her, causing her legs to feel weak.

Shao Yunduan chuckled softly and sighed. “We’re already married, why are you so shy? There’s no one else here!”

“That’s not the point…” Qiao Xuan’s face grew hotter as she grumbled inwardly. She had expected him to be more gentle and refined when they were in the presence of others, but it seemed that he remained the same when they were alone.

Shao Yunduan smiled again. “I understand. You’re not used to it yet. With time, you’ll grow accustomed to it.”

Confusion filled Qiao Xuan’s gaze as she looked at him.

His gentle face drew closer and closer, and before Qiao Xuan could react, he kissed her.

This kiss differed from their previous gentle ones. It was a fervent invasion, leaving Qiao Xuan feeling dizzy and weak.

After the kiss, he held her in an intimate embrace. Her lips were slightly parted, and she breathed lightly. Her eyes were watery and filled with confusion, her face flushed.

When she looked up and met his smiling eyes, Qiao Xuan felt even more embarrassed. There was nowhere to hide, so she sought solace in Shao Yunduan’s arms, burying herself like an ostrich.

Shao Yunduan couldn’t help but laugh. “Why are you suddenly so enthusiastic?”

Qiao Xuan huffed. “Let’s go back to the room…”

Staying any longer would only deepen her embarrassment. She didn’t want to hear what else he might say. She wanted to escape!

Shao Yunduan’s smile widened. “Alright, let’s head back to the room. Don’t worry, my dear wife!”

“I’m not in a rush. Stop saying silly things!”

Qiao Xuan squirmed in embarrassment, trying to free herself.

Shao Yunduan held her tightly, a mischievous smile on his face. “Okay, okay, you’re not in a hurry, but I am!”

“What’s the rush?”

“… I’m just eager!”

“Y-You’re not allowed to be eager either!”

“Alright, alright. No more teasing. Let’s go back to our room.”

Shao Yunduan scooped her up in his arms and made his way towards the bedroom.

Their desire to be intimate with each other was evident. The tenderness gradually turned into passion as they spent the night together.

The next day, everyone woke up, feeling even more exhausted after a full night’s sleep, except for Qiao Xuan and Shao Yunduan, who seemed remarkably energized.

The others were impressed. “Are you guys used to traveling? We can’t match your enthusiasm!”

Shao Yunduan smiled, while Qiao Xuan blushed shyly, feeling a twinge of guilt.

Shao Yunduan handed the invitations to Magistrate Yuezheng Xiao and Xie Jingrong.

Since they were here, it was customary to visit various places. Given his current status, it was a matter of etiquette.

To their surprise, the Xie Family extended a warm welcome, sending an elderly woman to greet them. She announced that they would be hosting a banquet in two days and invited Ms. Fang and Qiao Xuan as honored guests.

Xie Jingrong and Yuezheng Xiao arrived together. Upon seeing Ms. Fang and Shao Yunduan, they approached for a conversation. Qiao Xuan sent word for them to meet later, and both of them agreed with a smile, clearly intrigued.

What Qiao Xuan wanted to talk about was definitely about how to make money together.

The two of them had witnessed her ability to earn money and were filled with admiration.

Needless to say, Yuezheng Xiao had already made a lot of money by cooperating with Qiao Xuan, and the Yuezheng Family had risen to a higher level.
