Chapter 41: Do You Want Me to Take Responsibility?

He paused.

Bai Xianyu had yet to think of an excuse, but there was no time for her to think too much. “You’re not allowed to leave!”

Xie Xingyun jumped off the wall, his clothes fluttering as he raised his eyebrows slightly.

Bai Xianyu was quick-witted. “Are you planning to leave like this after entering my bedroom?”

To her now, Xie Xingyun was simply unrestrained. How could he enter a girl’s bedroom in broad daylight?

Although from Xie Xingyun’s point of view, he still regarded her as his wife from his previous life, she rejected this.

Thus, it made sense for her to get angry and detain him, right?

The young man locked his dark eyes on her. “Even if I had broken in, what are you going to do?”

Bai Xianyu took a deep breath. “I’m not married yet. If others see you going out of my courtyard, won’t my reputation be ruined?”

Xie Xingyun looked at her steadily and the corners of his lips curled up slightly. “So?”

“So you have to apologize to me…” Bai Xianyu clenched her fists. “And you have to stay here and wait till nightfall before leaving.”

Afraid that Xie Xingyun would notice something, she added, “1’11 get someone to send you out personally tonight. I guarantee that no one will see your face. Only then will I be at ease.”

Xie Xingyun said leisurely, “What are you afraid of? If someone sees me, 1’11 come and propose marriage.”

Bai Xianyu,”…”

“No way.” Bai Xianyu looked at the sun. When Madam Qin left, it was noon. It had already been two hours, and it would usually take four hours to get to the silk cloth shop from the General’s Manor in a carriage. She had to delay him for at least another two hours.

“You should wait until dusk before you leave. There are many outsiders in the residence now.”

Xie Xingyun suddenly said, “You’re not stalling for time, are you?”

Bai Xianyu’s heart skipped a beat. “Who said I’m stalling for time?”

“Then why won’t you let me go?” Xie Xingyun had already walked up to her at some point. There was a huge difference in stature. One was tall and straight, while the other was petite and delicate. Bai Xianyu could only reach his chest level.

“You threw yourself at me and are keeping me till nightfall. You’re heartless in your words, but honest in your body.” His deep eyes were like a sharp blade as he sized her up. “If you want me to be responsible, just say so.”

Bai Xianyu choked. “Young Marquis, you’re thinking too much.”

Xie Xingyun raised his eyelids lazily. “Since you’re not stalling for time, why don’t you come with me to take a look?”

A large hand wrapped around her waist, and lifted the girl up horizontally.

Bai Xianyu was hit by the man’s unique sandalwood scent and she subconsciously grabbed his collar. By the time she reacted, she was already being carried by Xie Xingyun as he weaved his way across the eaves of the house.

She was so angry that she twisted his arm. “Xie Xingyun, you bastard!”

However, the man’s arm muscles were tight. Bai Xianyu’s hands became red even before she could twist his arm.

Xie Xingyun did not stop walking and even took the time to stretch out a hand to cover her mouth. However, Bai Xianyu was struggling so hard that he simply changed his posture and pressed down on her legs as if he was carrying a sack. His tone was calm and cold. “If you continue to make noise, the people below will notice.”

Bai Xianyu’s face was facing the man’s firm back, which had turned red because of blood congestion. Below them were the servants of the General’s Manor. They would be discovered as soon as they looked up.

She was about to cry from anxiety. With Xie Xingyun’s speed, he would probably arrive in less than half an hour. At that time, she would not be able to deny it even if she wanted to.

He was clearly not like this in the past, so why did he not play by the rules when he was reborn?

The sound of rushing wind whistled in his ears, but Xie Xingyun acutely sensed a kitten-like sob..
