The Marshal’s Wife is Wild -
Chapter 276 - 275
Chapter 276: Chapter 275
It just had to be today when her parents were both busy. Hearing that there were only two people coming, she brought two bodyguards and stormed over.
"If you think the price is too low, you could simply choose not to sell," Qu Tong hadn’t realized there was such an issue, but this also meant the others initially weren’t that interested in the manor. They decided to sell it to the Royal Family without negotiating to give them face.
Qu Wanwan was furious, the items withdrawn from the Star Network auction had a three-month cooling-off period. How could they possibly wait that long?
Her eyes reddened, but there was nothing she could do except glare furiously at Qu Tong.
Qu Tong found it boring and shook her head, not prepared to discuss these unproductive topics with Qu Wanwan. She turned around to leave.
However, Qu Wanwan threatened from behind, "Give back Yuelan Bay to me, or don’t blame me for disclosing your affairs of the heart to the Grand Marshal and making you lose all the honors you enjoy now."
Qu Tong turned around, her cold gaze landing on Qu Wanwan’s somewhat grotesque face.
Seeing that Qu Tong indeed stopped, Qu Wanwan, as if finding an outlet, laughed somewhat crazily, "Don’t think that just because you currently have the Grand Marshal and the Royal Family’s protection, it’s only temporary. Sooner or later, you will be discarded like worn-out shoes, haha."
"Just like you are now?" Qu Tong retorted coldly.
But this time, Qu Wanwan wasn’t provoked. She stepped closer, peering down at Qu Tong with the posture of a victor, sneering, "Every time you secretly look at Xu An with those disgusting eyes, the Grand Marshal doesn’t know yet, does he? That you like your own brother?"
Qu Tong was expected to be flustered, startled, and enraged.
But there was none.
Qu Tong’s expression was indifferent, as if this matter wasn’t about her, she slightly raised her eyebrows, "Just looking a few times proves nothing. It only shows that a corrupt person sees everything as tainted."
Qu Wanwan didn’t expect Qu Tong to deny it so calmly, but she still insisted, "Don’t think I don’t know. You and Xu An are definitely not innocent."
Qu Tong chuckled lightly, "Did you see it while hiding under the bed?"
"You!" Qu Wanwan was left speechless.
"If you didn’t see it, don’t talk nonsense. Spreading rumors has legal consequences, dear cousin, don’t forget, I’m now the Prince’s Consort."
Qu Tong emphasized the words "The Prince’s Consort," her gaze sharp yet lethal.
Qu Wanwan turned pale, involuntarily thinking of the life imprisonment of Lan Guofu, also over this matter, and how the Lan Family disliked the entire Qu Family because of it.
If not because she was pregnant with Lan Xingye’s child, the Lan Family genuinely wouldn’t care about her.
Even now that the child was almost due, despite her repeated hints about marriage, Lan Xingye had given no response whatsoever.
Qu Tong no longer paid attention to Qu Wanwan and leisurely continued towards the main gate.
Upon exiting, she saw only Si Yuting by the door, stunned, "Your Highness?"
Qu Tong glanced at the distance between Qu Wanwan and the entrance, and it wasn’t hard to deduce that given Si Yuting’s spiritual power, he definitely could hear clearly since they both hadn’t lowered their voices.
"Yes, I came to pick you up," Si Yuting looked at Qu Tong. His voice was calm, just like always.
Upon hearing his voice, Qu Wanwan looked up and saw a striking couple outside the door, the bitterness in her eyes slowly turning into a desperate determination.
She was suffering, and she wanted to make Qu Tong suffer too.
Why should she!
Pushing out her pregnant belly, she stepped forward and said to Si Yuting, "Grand Marshal, there’s something..."
"Ms. Qu, this place is now my wife’s private property. If you have nothing else, please leave promptly," Si Yuting interrupted her coldly.
When dealing with outsiders, Si Yuting didn’t bother to hide his terrifying presence, giving the order to leave without a hint of politeness.
Qu Wanwan was overwhelmed by Si Yuting’s aura, standing frozen in place, unable to utter the words on her lips.
Si Yuting didn’t bother with the bystander any further, taking Qu Tong onto the aircraft.
Xuan Ping and Qu Wanwan’s bodyguards were nowhere to be seen, presumably dismissed by Si Yuting.
As Xuan Ping was unlikely to be lost, Qu Tong didn’t need to worry.
She looked at Si Yuting sideways, "If I say I don’t like Xu An, would you believe me?"
"I believe you. I don’t need to understand my wife through others’ words, especially not from someone who has a bad relationship with you," Si Yuting had Qu Tong sit in the co-pilot seat, carefully securing her seatbelt.
Qu Tong smiled, she had known he would.
Qu Wanwan was only so young, merely having some girlish feelings, and she knew that Xu An always treated her like a younger sister.
What’s more important was that she wasn’t the original owner.
Si Yuting managed to stay cool like a machine, and it was this aspect that she found absolutely fascinating, highly alluring due to his utter rationality.
"Your Highness, have I ever told you how handsome you are?"
Si Yuting was taken aback.
Taking advantage of the moment Si Yuting had not yet stood up, Qu Tong leaned up and kissed him on the side of the neck.
Si Yuting’s eyes flickered slightly, leaning forward.
But the little mischievous fox covered her lips and mumbled, "I put on makeup today."
Si Yuting closely observed Qu Tong’s lively, enchanting eyes and the subtle eyeliner at the corners of her eyes.
His Adam’s apple bobbed slightly, he straightened up, and deeply gazed at his little wife who looked innocent but was actually full of tricks.
Helplessly preparing to return to the pilot’s seat, his hand was grasped again.
Si Yuting turned back.
Qu Tong smiled brightly, "Your Highness, let me drive."
Si Yuting: "..."
Qu Tong quickly unbuckled her seatbelt and reached for the driver’s seat.
Si Yuting in the passenger seat set the destination for Qu Tong and briefly explained the unique features of his aircraft.
"Okay!" Qu Tong gave an OK sign and pulled the launch lever.
"Where are we going, Your Highness?"
Si Yuting said in a calm voice, "I’m taking you to a show."
A date?
Qu Tong raised an eyebrow.
Si Yuting’s aircraft was similar to hers, perhaps due to it being a warplane, it had more complex functions and felt heavier to operate.
However, Qu Tong only needed to use the most basic functions, which she could handle proficiently.
Twenty minutes later.
Qu Tong stood on the platform, with a poker face, unsure of how to describe her feelings.
"Help! Who brings a girl to a military exercise on a date?
Moreover, it was a joint event organized by several Legions and the inland police chiefs, with Feng Lin playing the role of a gang leader.
For New Year’s Day, the Military Department really knew how to stir things up.
Well, it’s quite a unique program.
However, the surrounding crowd of Capital Star residents was indeed bustling.
Well, since I’m already here, it’s really tough on Si Yuting for booking such a great spot for me, immediately drawing attention in the spectator stands, even Wen You who was lurking in the shrubs waved at her.
Qu Tong also saw many familiar faces, including Feng Haoran and his subordinates, hostage Wen Qing, the bandit Wen You, and Feng Lin.
This arrangement was really amazing; no wonder the audience was so engaged in watching.
Feng Lin, dressed in shabby clothes with a scar sticker on his face, truly emanated a bandit vibe with few words.
Wen Qing, as a hostage, ended up in Wen You’s hands, which was quite a plight.
Qu Tong even suspected Wen You ad-libbed her role.
