It was a pleasant offer in Qianru's ears, it had been a long time since she had light conversation like this, didn't mix up with political and power struggle, just chatted away.

Surprisingly, it wasn't so hard to find a topic for discussion with him. Not like her initial impression about him.

"I am sure it will be nice. But, since my carriage also here, I think I am fine on my way back." However, she was still a married woman and she didn't want to have overly close relationship with any other men. 

Baseless rumor could spread in no time, not to mention they were in the situation that they needed to watch their every steps as their enemies were lurking to wait for their mishap.

"You are right." The smiled on Mo Xuan Fei's lips didn't falter, he looked at Qianru's young servant was approaching them. "I will take my leave. I hope next time we can play another round again."

"I will look forward to it." Qianru's foul mood was slightly better after the game.

After some parting words Mo Xuan Fei alight his carriage, leaving Qianru with her servant and bunches of guard, toward his direction to the south.

"Let's go inside." Qianru strolled inside the jewelry shop.

It was a custom in Rockstone Kingdom to give the soon- to- be- married woman a gift of jewelry to wish them an astounding life and wealth.

Therefore, Qianru wanted to find a finest jewelry as a present for Ji Yunshu.

-

It wasn't her personal interest, not after the tea party that instigated by Zhao Tianqi, it was merely courtesy as a guest of the Rockstone Kingdom. She didn't only represent herself, but also Xiao Jun and their country.

However, she changed her mind a moment after she entered the shop.

Ji Yunshu didn't need wealth, because Qianru has another idea of present in her mind.

*** 

Qianru didn't spend long time inside the jewelry shop, she intended to return when she found the item that she wanted.

However, there were a small dispute when Qianru ordered all the guards to go back to the Palace, they were insisting to stick with Xiao Jun's order; brought her back to Azura.

However, Qianru wasn't a woman like she used to be, she didn't want someone telling her about what she needed to do anymore.

The reason why Xiao Jun sent her away was because he thought Qianru couldn't face a hardship and she was really eager to prove that he was wrong, that she was stronger than he thought she was.

In spite of her suspicious feeling that Xiao Jun might have another reason why he tried to shun her away, her own assumption was an enough reason for her to stand on her decision.

Once her carriage entered their courtyard, Xiao Jun had been standing there, waiting for her. His dark mood could be sense from faraway.

Once looked at him now, could scare all the people around him.

The carriage stopped before him as all the guards, Lu Che and Jinse got off and knelt on the ground, very low until they could smell the soil after rain.


Xiao Jun was very rare to show his dissatisfaction or his anger, but once he did, it wouldn't end up good. He was the type of a man who would run a devious stratagem while smiling.

Qianru had seen his anger a few times before, however she had never been the person who received it until today.

And now she felt his fury first hand and it wasn't a pleasant feeling.

She could feel her hands shaking when she got off from the carriage, but she stubbornly hid them under her sleeves.

Qianru didn't want to go back, this was final, resolute and unswerving.

Not this time.

Once Qianru had stood in front of Xiao Jun, she found herself unable to look at him in the eyes, his eyes were burning with indignation.

Xiao Jun didn't say anything and walked inside her room, a gestured for Qianru to follow him.

No matter how angry he was, he would never raise his voice or humiliated his wife in front of other people, including servants around them, who often assumed as insignificant existence.

Her heart was beating fast, thumping wildly against her chest when she followed her husband.

It took longer time for Qianru to close the door and face her incensed husband.

"I told you to go back to Azura." Xiao Jun's voice was so deep and sounded so distance. "Why don't you listen to me?"Find authorized novels in Webnovel,faster updates, better experience,Please click www.webnovel.com for visiting.

Qianru's found herself lost her confidence into thin air, it evaporated under Xiao Jun menacing glared.

"And my answer is still the same…" Qianru's voice was barely a whisper. She was afraid of him. Xiao Jun was never angry to her before.

Yes, he had never been angry to her, because Qianru was always agree with everything that he had arranged and never said otherwise.

This was the first time she defied him and giving to their situation now, it wouldn't be the last.

"Qianru, I will not repeat myself." Xiao Jun gripped her wrist tightly without holding back his strength, the thing that he forgot out of anger. "Go back to Azura!" He exclaimed through gritted teeth.

"You hurt me!" Qianru whimpered while trying to free her hand from him. "Jun, it's hurt!"

Like someone was pouring a bucket of cold water on his face, Xiao Jun realized what he was doing and in an instant he freed her hand.

It would be bruise, no doubt.

Qianru has delicate and fair skin, even a small force could leave mark on her.

"I am sorry, I didn't mean that." Xiao Jun stepped forward and took her hand to examine it, surely there was red mark on her wrist as big as his hand. "I will get cold water, it will help."

After saying that Xiao Jun stormed out of the room while Qianru was holding her left hand and sat on the wooden chair, she stroke her wrist to ease the pain.
