Chapter 574: Chapter 574, Disgusting to the Core (3 more)
The young face, the young body, vibrant and full of life, so different from his own aging and dusk.
The maid had already been taken in to warm the bed, a maid specifically for that purpose.
When he toppled warmth and overthrew beauty in bed, he always liked to cover their faces with a handkerchief, venting without emotion, thinking of the one who held the dearest place in his heart.
Because he cared too much, he never dared to be too reckless even in his moments of pleasure, fearing he might hurt her, afraid he might harm her.
Yet, from beginning to end, she never understood his feelings and love.
“Marquis!” Xi Yu called softly.
Her demeanor resembled that of the marchioness, her voice even more so like that of the marchioness in playful complaint.
The Marquis had been searching for a long time, for someone like her.
He dared not bring her before the marchioness.
“Xi Yu!” the Marquis called gently.
“This servant is here!”
“How long have you been with this Marquis?”
“…” Xi Yu pressed her lips together, “To reply to the Marquis, Xi Yu has known the Marquis for five hundred and sixty-seven days, been with the Marquis for five hundred and thirty-one days, and entered the household for five hundred days!”
“…” The Marquis looked up.
Staring at Xi Yu.
He was stunned for quite a while.
She remembered so clearly.
Xi Yu knelt down, resting her head on the Marquis’s leg, her voice a muted whisper, “Marquis, Xi Yu adores you, from the first glance I threw at you, I couldn’t help but feel moved, couldn’t help but want to follow you…”
Just for a moment, the hurt she received from the marchioness seemed to be soothed by tenderness here.
The Marquis carried her into the inner chamber, and soon after, Xi Yu’s cries of pain could be heard. The Marquis gently comforted her, his hand moving out of habit to reach for the handkerchief, but in the end, he threw it violently to the floor.
The room was filled with an atmosphere of romance.
When the marchioness received the news, she sat in silence for a long time before saying, “A dog can’t stop eating its own vomit, I really overestimated him. He is that old devout woman’s son, just like her. Compared to the Marquis’s integrity, he’s lacking more than just a little!”
If he were to go and confront the old lady, with her guilty conscience, she would definitely react, she would go and check if there were any loopholes in the past, and then she might be able to follow the clues and find the evidence.
This despicable man, he left in sorrow, but in no time at all, he was rolling around with a warming maid.
Talk of love, his love truly disgusts me.
“Rest!”
The marchioness said softly.
Instructing people to extinguish the lights and rest.
In the front courtyard.
After the ultimate pleasure, Xi Yu softly spoke, “Marquis, this servant wishes to bear a child for you, would the Marquis be so kind as to pity this servant?”
“…”
The Marquis was silent for a long time.
Since the year he had a sudden awakening, no illegitimate sons or daughters were born in the Marquis’s household.
He had given the marchioness due respect, but she never cared.
“Fine, stop the medicine then!”
Upon agreeing to this request.
The Marquis’s heart inexplicably panicked; he knew that once this threshold was crossed, he could truly never go back…
Xi Yu smiled with pressed lips, tenderly and affectionately entwining with the Marquis, both yielding to pleasure.
At dawn.
The marchioness was now in good health, and although she didn’t need to manage the household provisions, she still habitually walked around the courtyard.
“Madam, Madam!” The housekeeper hobbled in, whispering urgently, “The Marquis has brought Xi Yu here to offer you tea!”
“…”
The marchioness understood that this was the elevation of a concubine.
Since she was to become a concubine, naturally she had to offer tea to her mistress.
“Don’t let them enter the courtyard, lest they dirty my ground!”
No sooner had she spoken than the housekeeper had a chance to stop them, the Marquis had already brought Xi Yu into the courtyard.
He looked indifferently at the marchioness, who was in excellent health.
He pressed his lips together.
“I’ve brought Xi Yu to offer you tea. As the head mistress of the household…”
The marchioness looked at him indifferently and then laughed.
Her laugh was somewhat arrogant and unrestrained, just like when she was young, the foolish love he had harbored in his heart.
He moved forward as if he couldn’t help himself, wanting to embrace her, wanting to exchange a few intimate words, but the marchioness casually tossed a jade hairpin onto the ground, “Congratulations, Marquis, on acquiring another Concubine Xi Yu!”
