Chapter 937 - 937 I Belong to Xiangling, So Why Can’t I Stay In Her Room?


937 I Belong to Xiangling, So Why Can’t I Stay In Her Room?


Her maids remained silent as they dared not utter a single word.


The Countess’ heart was filled with hatred. In addition, her body was feeling uncomfortable. In the end, she lost her temper and continuously smashed things.


Many of the items had hit the maids, but even so, they did not dare to move.


When the Countess was finally tired after smas.h.i.+ng the items, she shouted at them with a hoa.r.s.e voice, “Get out of my room!”

!!

The maids hastily retreated.


At the same time, an elderly maid came in with a bowl of medicine.


After the elderly maid made her way inside, she said in a respectful tone, “Third Miss, I’ve brewed you an antidote for the itching medicine. Hurry and drink it.”


“Quick, give it to me!”


The Countess acted as if she had encountered her savior and reached out with her hands.


The elderly maid moved toward the Countess and helped her finish the whole bowl.


However, when the Countess finished drinking the medicine, the maid suddenly revealed a strange smile.


The Countess lay down on her bed after she finished drinking the medicinal soup. The maid even asked her, “Madam, how are you feeling?”


“How could it possibly take effect so quickly?”


As soon as the Countess said that, she widened her eyes in surprise.


She no longer felt any itchiness on her body. Instead, she started to feel the pain due to the excessive scratching of her skin earlier.


“Great, I finally don’t feel the itch.”


The Countess breathed out a sigh of relief.


The maid said with a smile, “Third Miss, why don’t I help you apply some medicine to the scratch wounds?”


“No need. I want to rest now. You can go out.”


“Yes.”



The Count remained in Ian’s place for half an hour before he left.


On the way back, he was already planning to give the Countess a good scolding.


The moment he went into the room and saw that she was already asleep, he walked over and gave her a slap.


The Countess woke up from the slap. When she saw it was the Count, she covered her cheeks and started wailing.


The Count gritted his teeth and said, “Are you satisfied now? We have lost all our dignity due to you! You wicked woman!”


The Countess obviously did not dare to provoke the Count at this moment and so, she said with a regretful expression, “Count, I was in the wrong. I won’t dare to do it again.”


The Count saw that she had been taught a lesson tonight and coupled with how he was too exhausted, he decided to continue teaching her a lesson tomorrow.


In the middle of the night, the Countess who was lying on the bed suddenly opened her eyes. Right now, her eyes were red instead of their usual color.


She tilted her head and looked at the Count sleeping by her side. Her gaze landed on his neck.


In the next second, she took a bite.


“Ugh…”


The movements in the room weren’t loud at all and soon, it returned to silence.



When Zi Yi and Lu Jingye walked out of the room the next day, the others just so happened to come out from their respective rooms.


“Good morning, everyone. I wonder if you were used to staying here last night?”


Ian stood behind Dou Xiangling and smiled triumphantly.


Dou Zerui suddenly noticed something amiss and asked with narrowed eyes, “Ian, which room did you just come out from?”


Ian did not expect to be exposed by his brother-in-law so quickly. However, he did not hide anything and instead, openly admitted it. “Xiangling’s room.”


If not for the fact that Xiangling was unwilling to stay in his room, he would not have sneaked into hers in the middle of the night and pestered her. Even though he only managed to steal a few kisses, he was very satisfied to be able to hug his beloved woman to sleep.


When Dou Zerui heard what he said, his expression sank and he walked over with the intention of giving him a beating.


“Sh*t! I knew it! You have ill designs toward my sister! How dare you enter my sister’s room before getting married.”


Ian quickly hid behind Dou Xiangling and said, “We are already engaged. I belong to Xiangling, so why can’t I stay in her room?”


“You two have yet to get married.”


“We are already engaged and we are basically husband and wife.”


“Pei!


Looking at the two who were about to quarrel, the others stood there with speechless expressions, as they had no idea whose side to take.


Dou Xiangling who was standing in the middle could not speak at the very first instance due to embarra.s.sment. But now that her brother was getting out of hand, she hastily called out, “Brother.”


Only then did Dou Zerui stop. In fact, he just found Ian an eyesore. He had yet to recover from the depressive thought that his sister was about to get married soon and so, he purposely tried to make things difficult for Ian and gave him a scolding.


Now that his sister was looking at him with pleading eyes, all his grievances disappeared all of a sudden.


“Alright, alright.”


At the end of the day, his sister would ultimately side with her other half sooner or later. As for this brother of hers, he would only wait for the day when Ian made her unhappy before he could give Ian a good beating.


Just then, a respectful voice sounded from outside. “Young Master Ian, Miss Dou, and distinguished guests. The Count has ordered the servants to have breakfast prepared and is currently waiting for you in the main hall.”


Ian immediately answered, “Tell Father that we’ll be there right away.”


“Yes.”


Ian turned to look at Dou Zerui and discovered that his displeased expression had disappeared. He knew that he was safe now and so, he said, “Everyone, please follow me.”


When they arrived at the dining room the Count and the Third Madam, along with Ian’s younger brother and sister were already waiting there.


At the sight of them coming in, the Count immediately welcomed them with great enthusiasm. “Xiangling, distinguished guests, hurry and come over and take a seat.”


Everyone walked to the long table and sat down.


The maid started to serve breakfast to everyone.


Unexpectedly, there was a chinese-styled breakfast as well as the western-styled breakfast on the table.


“I was thinking that Xiangling and the guests might not be accustomed to western breakfast, so I had the kitchen prepare a chinese-style breakfast. Have a try and see how it tastes.”


Lu Jingye said, “Thank you.”


Everyone started to eat breakfast and said that it tasted delicious.


The Count was smiling with a full-blow grin. “It’s good that you like it.”


No one mentioned the Countess while they ate.


After they finished breakfast, Zi Yi and the rest would be heading to the palace to attend the banquet hosted by the King at noon, they returned to the winery to change their clothes.


Ian originally planned to tag along, but the Count got him to stay.


After sending the guests to the car near the gates and seeing them off, the Count turned to look at Ian. His expression could be considered kind. “Ian, get along well with them in the future. Especially Mr. Lu and Mrs. Lu. Only by getting along with them will the family improve for the better.”


Ian nodded his head.


The Count then said, “I will give your Mother a good lecture and get people to watch over her in the future. When you and Xiangling get married, you should move back.”


When the Count was speaking, he looked like a kind father. Ian who had never once enjoyed real fatherly love felt a strange feeling deep down inside.


Just then, the Count stepped closer to him and raised his hands to put his arms around him.


Ian’s body stiffened. He felt that his Father felt a little unfamiliar today.


In fact, he did look forward to such a scene happening when he was younger but…


The Count did not immediately release his hold after putting his arms around Ian’s shoulders. Instead, he said to his neck, “The family will be relying on you in the future.”


Ian subconsciously nodded his head.


Only then did the Count release him.
