Chapter 877: A Sense of Propriety
....
Translations Editor: Henyee
Pei Xuanxin didn’t expect to hear Li Xiaoran say such a thing. He was stunned for a moment and didn’t know what to say.
He had a thousand words to say, but he couldn’t bring himself to say them.
How should he put it?
Could he just say that he had a very vivid dream and that in the dream, she was his wife?
That was out of the question!
“Are you here to help Prince Fu persuade me?” As Li Xiaoran looked at the hesitation on Pei Xuanxin’s face, she sensed his emotions.
She really didn’t expect that not only did she see what happened in her previous life with Li Yan, but Pei Xuanxin also dreamed of what happened in her previous life. No wonder he had a complicated expression when he walked in just now.
No matter what Pei Xuanxin thought, she wouldn’t let him say anything inappropriate.
Not to mention that she wasn’t the Host in her previous life, in this life, she was already Luo Cheng’s wife, so she shouldn’t have anything to do with other men.
Not even in her previous life.
In marriage, one had responsibilities besides being in love.
When one really loved someone, one should have a sense of propriety.
There were some things that had to be done decisively!
A lack of sense of propriety would only hurt the relationship between husband and wife!
Pei Xuanxin was stunned for a moment, then his gaze moved to the guard outside and he nodded.
“To be precise, I want you to write a letter to Luo Cheng and persuade him to help the crown prince sit on the throne! Not to mention anything else, you have to consider your own life! If you don’t write it, I’m afraid you really won’t be able to escape alive! You also know that Li Yan has always been jealous of you and has always wanted to get rid of you. She’s in this house now and is being watched by the crown prince. Otherwise, you wouldn’t have such a peaceful time!”
When Li Xiaoran heard this, she immediately laughed.
“I know. I was almost strangled by her when I was just captured!”
With that, Li Xiaoran put down her collar and the purplish-black fingerprint marks appeared in front of Pei Xuanxin.
“Look, this is Li Yan’s doing!”
When Pei Xuanxin saw this scene, his pupils dilated and he stood up. When he thought of the scene of Li Xiaoran lying in a pool of blood after being stabbed by Li Yan several times in his dream, his eyes immediately turned red.
No, this couldn’t go on. He had to help her get out of there.
No matter what, he couldn’t watch something bad happen to Li Xiaoran in front of him again!
Li Xiaoran sensed Pei Xuanxin’s strong protectiveness and straightened her collar again.
“Actually, I should congratulate you! It’s a good thing that you got rid of Li Yan.
At least she can’t harm you in the future!”
Pei Xuanxin came back to his senses, but was stunned when he heard Li Xiaoran’s words.
Pei Xuanxin looked at Li Xiaoran meaningfully as he said, “It’s not a good thing. Perhaps meeting her wasn’t a good thing in the first place! If I could turn
back time, I would rather never have known her!”
They marveled at their encounter in this life and at everything in the dream!
Nothing good had happened after he met Li Yan in reality and in his dream.
In his dream, Li Yan broke up his happy family, and in reality, didn’t Li Yan also ruin the rest of his life?
Now, hadn’t he already been forced to take a path of no return?
Others might not know, but Pei Xuanxin knew very well.
The current emperor was a wise ruler. Under his leadership, the nation would definitely obtain glory!
On the other hand, King Fu’s son, Ling Wei, actually needed him to bring people to protect him.
To be honest, if his father-in-law had told him all this earlier, he would have persuaded him to change his mind.
Unfortunately, he was pulled into this mess by his father-in-law and was in a dilemma now!
As Li Xiaoran read Pei Xuanxin’s thoughts, she sighed.
Sometimes, fate toyed with people!
Originally, Pei Xuanxin could have given up all his wealth and glory, gotten rid of Li Yan, and started a new life.
However, he couldn’t bear to let his years of hard work go to waste, so he accepted the marriage proposal from an official’s daughter.
He could have used this as an opportunity to make a comeback. Unexpectedly, he entered a tiger’s den as soon as he left the wolf’s den.
Li Xiaoran thought of something and said, “Yes, there are many situations where one seems to have no choice, but there are still choices. As long as one thinks of them, there are definitely choices!”
When Pei Xuanxin heard this, he pondered over it carefully.
Li Xiaoran said again, “People are always pessimistic when they’re in trouble! Little did you know that in the past, you actually had thousands of paths to choose from! What trapped you wasn’t everything around you, but yourself!”
“Oh really? In that case, I want to see what the smart consort will do. Or do you really think you can escape from this house?” At this moment, Ling Wei walked in.
When Li Xiaoran saw Ling Wei, she immediately smiled.
“It’s the same for me! Although I’m trapped here, my heart is free, so I can make any choice I want!”
“Hmph, it seems that I’ve treated you too well!” With that, Ling Wei left with Pei Xuanxin.
After Pei Xuanxin glanced at Li Xiaoran, he left with Ling Wei.
Seeing this, Li Xiaoran immediately smiled.
However, Li Xiaoran knew very well that the following days would probably be a little torturous.
As expected, not long after, Li Yan appeared in front of Li Xiaoran.
“The crown prince asked me to come over and watch you. Li Xiaoran, from now on, you’re my prisoner. You’ll do whatever I tell you to do. You have to listen to me!”
When Li Xiaoran heard Li Yan’s words, she immediately laughed.
“If you want me to listen to you, you have to have the ability to make me listen to you!”
When Li Yan heard this, she immediately rushed over to slap Li Xiaoran!
Unfortunately, Li Xiaoran was no longer the former Li Xiaoran.
Even without Luo Cheng by her side, she wasn’t someone Li Yan could bully.
As a result, the person who was slapped wasn’t Li Xiaoran, but Li Yan.
Li Yan never expected that she would become the one who was beaten up instead in the blink of an eye.
“You b.i.t.c.h!” With that, Li Yan rushed over again.
As blood flowed down, Li Yan blacked out.
When the guard heard the commotion inside, he only thought that Li Yan was bullying Li Xiaoran, so he didn’t care. He didn’t even think of coming in to take a look.
Li Xiaoran slowly walked towards Li Yan and slapped her again!
