    Qin Xiaoyao was no longer angry at this moment.


    Song Rui almost made her burst outughing.


    When she saw Song Rui smiling at her, Qin Xiaoyao stopped smiling.


    “Don’t do it again,” she admonished petntly.


    Then, she took the initiative to hold Song Rui’s hand and walked into the house.


    “Granny Hu has prepared a meal and we are waiting for you toe over to eat together. But you…”


    “It’s my fault. There won t be a next time,” Song Rui hurriedly swore an oath.


    He thought for a moment and added, “If something urgent pops up next time, I’ll arrange for someone toe and inform you.”


    Qin Xiaoyao turned to look at Song Rui.


    “It’s better not to. It’s fine as long as only the two of us know about this ce.


    “If there’s really a dy…” Qin Xiaoyao’s face was filled with displeasure at this point.


    “You cane overter.”


    Song Rui heaved a sigh of relief.


    “But you muste over as soon as you’re done with your tasks.


    “If I find out that you have been deliberately dying…” As she said that, a fierce glint shed across Qin Xiaoyao’s eyes. She even raised her fist menacingly at Song Rui.


    The threat was self-evident.


    Song Ruiughed in amusement.


    “Yes. Your husband will remember well!” he replied.


    When Qin Xiaoyao saw that her threat waspletely ineffective, she wanted to emphasize it again.


    However, Song Que grabbed her hand.


    “Let’s go. I’m hungry,” Song Rui said as he pulled Qin Xiaoyao inside.


    Qin Xiaoyao’s threatening words stopped on the tip of her tongue. She looked at rhe man’s handsome side profile and gave up on malting things difficult for him.


    They arrived at the hall.


    When Granny Hu heard themotion outside, she had already brought the hot food out.


    As soon as the couple entered, she bade them sit down.


    Soon, the three of them started eating dinner.


    After the meal. Granny Hu went off to wash the dishes.


    Song Rui brought Qin Xiaoyao back to their room early.


    Two hourster.


    Song Rui leaned against the headboardnguidly, not wanting to move at all.


    Qin Xiaoyaoy in Song Rui’s arms and yed with Song Rui’s hair intermittently.


    “Lord Song has been living a life flushed with sess recently,” Qin Xiaoyao spoke up.


    Even she, who did nor care much about the affairs of the Imperial Court, knew that he had been promoted again in a short period of time.


    Furthermore, he was promoted to the post of an official in the Ministry of Appointments.


    After Official Wang retired, many people had their eyes on this post.


    Who would have thought that a neer like him would take up the post when so many veterans were not able to get this post?


    Song Rui smiled.


    He propped himself up and puiied his clothes over.


    Then, he took out a stack of silver notes.


    It’s not just promotion. This is the harvest for this period of time. Keep it well, my dear.” As he spoke, Song Rui handed the silver notes in his hand to Qin Xiaoyao.


    Qin Xiaoyao’s eyes lit up.


    She took the silver notes and counted them.


    She found that the value was more than ten thousand taels.


    She then turned around and happily put away the silver notes.


    When she turned back again, she had turned into a docile little creature.


    “Hubby, you’re so capable. 1 don’t even want to work so hard anymore now that my husband is supporting my family,” Qin Xiaoyao said sweetly as she stroked Song Rui’s chin.


    Of course, she still had to work hard.


    During this period, the business of her century egg workshop and porridge shops had be even more popr. With the encouragement of Liu Ling and that girl Xiangyang, she almost wanted to try and make it into the capital’s richest people list.


    Hehe! It was still a long way for her to climb up the list of the richest people in the capital.


    However, the business in her hands was getting better and better with each passing day. The speed at which she earned money was also getting increasingly faster. Sooner orter, it would help her climb onto the rankings.


    Now, she had her husband’s money to support her. She could climb up the rankings even faster!


    Song Rui gave a side nce at the woman in his arms, indicating that he was very pleased with her words.


    “It’s all up to you, my dear.” As he spoke, he lowered his head and nted a kiss on Qin Xiaoyao’s forehead.


    Qin Xiaoyao smiled sweetly and snuggled into Song Rui’s arms again.


    “You’re sessful in your career. I bet you must be sessful in the romantic arena too?


    “When will Minister Shen bring Shen Lian into the residence?” Even without thinking, she also knew that her husband s position as an official in the Ministry of Appointments was the result of Minister Shen’s help.


    As for Minister Shen, how could he help for nothing?


    Song Rui’s heart sank. He thought to himself, “Here ites.”


    Then, he tightened his arms around Qin Xiaoyao.


    “Haven’t I always been sessful in the romantic arena?” As he spoke, he scratched Qin Xiaoyao’s nose.


    Qin Xiaoyao felt a little itchy and pped Song Rui’s hand away.


    “Don’t change the topic. Tell me clearly. What’s the situation on Shen Lian s side?” she asked in annoyance.


    Song Rui knew that he couldn’t get past her anymore. He sighed and told Qin Xiaoyao about the agreement between Minister Shen and Empress Jia.


    Qin Xiaoyao was extremely furious when she heard this.


    As if one Shen Lian was not bad enough, they wanted to add a young miss from the Jia family as well?
