Rebirth: Pampered by the Lord-Chapter 1934: Are You Kidding Me?

"That’s right! Several guards have died in the manor recently. It’s really unjust; they just got a scratch, and within seconds, they were poisoned and died."

"Don’t be afraid, dear. Your husband will protect you."

"Hmm."

Suddenly, Long Rui looked up at Xuexue and seriously asked, "I heard that last night you were very brave, charging ahead alone and knocking down a bunch of men in black, is that true?"

Though Long Rui’s voice was calm, the intelligent Xuexue could sense a hint of danger. She quickly smiled and denied, "Hehe... No, it’s all rumors, just rumors."

Normally, Long Rui was very accommodating to her, but there was one thing he was particularly firm about: not allowing Xuexue to be in any danger.

"Are you sure it’s just rumors?"

"Hehe... I’m sure, really sure."

"Shall we call Long Yi to testify?"

"No need, he’s busy in the back garden. Let’s not disturb him!"

Afraid of the Prince’s return and punishment, after sorting out things in the manor, Long Yi went to clean the garden.

"You! Becoming more disobedient. If there’s any danger in the future, and you rush ahead again, your husband will spank your butt!"

"No." Xuexue reflexively shouted.

What a joke? She’s an adult now; if her husband spanks her, how could she face others outside?

"If you don’t want a spanking, you have to behave from now on."

"Alright, alright, I know!"

"That’s my good girl!" Long Rui smiled with satisfaction, thinking his wife was quite adorable when she was gentle.

Xuexue gloomily ate candies.

A gentle breeze rustled the treetops, the leaves swaying constantly, the coolness brushing the face was quite comforting.

The two sat shoulder to shoulder on the treetop, breathing fresh air, enjoying the peaceful moments, wishing this moment could last forever.

After a while, Xuexue turned her head, breaking the silence, "Prince!"

"Call me husband."

"Husband."

"Ah! Today my wife is truly obedient, which is very comforting for me."

Xuexue’s eyes twinkled as she carefully asked, "Husband, people outside say you have a taste for good-looking men, is it true?"

Long Rui, who was happy a moment ago, instantly had a darker expression, his voice slightly gritting as he said coldly, "I would’ve almost forgotten if you hadn’t brought it up!"

Xuexue said, "Such a big issue, yet you can forget, Prince, you have a very large heart."

Long Rui nodded in agreement, "Yes, my heart is indeed large, otherwise I’d probably be angered to death by my own wife."

"Husband, you too. As the saying goes, don’t eat the grass at the edge of the nest. Even if you have to find someone, it shouldn’t be Long Yi, right? He’s your personal bodyguard, and you don’t know how sad Zi Xia was when she found out. She even wants Long Yi to become sisters with me so she can serve us. Sigh! That little girl really makes people feel sorry." Xuexue kept rambling on.

Under Long Rui’s mask, his expression grew darker, and the atmosphere around them became icy cold.

"Oh dear! What’s happening? Why did it suddenly become so cold?"

Xuexue shivered, instinctively looking up at the sky. The sun was shining brightly, and the weather was quite good, it shouldn’t be cold at this time of the year.

As Xuexue was puzzled.

Suddenly, Long Rui angrily shouted, "Situtu Xueer, is your butt itchy?"

"Ah!"

Startled by Long Rui’s shout, Xuexue fell off the tree.

She was about to hit the ground, resigning herself to closing her eyes, thinking she was doomed this time.
