Chapter 333: Just Get Used to It From Now On

The next day, early morning.

In a daze, Chen Yan felt the beauty beside him move slightly, as if she didn't want to wake him.

However, this move not only failed to achieve its goal, but instead completely woke Chen Yan up.

But he didn't open his eyes right away; instead, he turned over and lay on his side facing Li Lizhi.

Li Lizhi's tightly shut eyes twitched once, and she instantly dared not move.

Chen Yan opened his eyes, looking at the pretended-asleep Li Lizhi before him, and immediately understood she was shy.

After all, she was still a young girl; even though married, it was impossible for her to instantly get used to appearing naked before Chen Yan.

Chen Yan had just thought of teasing Li Lizhi when a faint voice came from behind.

"Does it look good?"

"Holy shit!!!"

"Ah!!!"

"......"

Weinan Bo Fu, having received too many guests the previous day, although cleaned once, could not possibly be thoroughly cleaned everywhere.

Thus the maids got up early; those who cleaned rooms cleaned rooms, those who washed dishes washed dishes.

Just as Qing'er was about to go check whether the two princesses' breakfast was ready, a scream came from the master bedroom.

Then came waves of angry scolding and noisy clamor.

Qing'er's mouth twitched; the many maids and servants immediately lowered their heads, their movements unconsciously speeding up a bit, as if they hadn't heard anything.

"Princess!"

Xiao Chan rushed over in a panic, recognizing that the scream had come from her own princess.

But before Xiao Chan could get there, Xiang Lan grabbed her.

She calmly said, "Don't rush; after you live with Lord Bo and them for a while you'll understand—this is normal, no need to worry."

"...... Ah?"

Xiao Chan's brain couldn't keep up; hearing the increasingly fierce quarrel from the master bedroom, her expression grew ever stranger.

"Xiang Lan...... really okay?"

Xiang Lan waved her hand, "Put your heart at ease, do what you should do; from now on just pretend you didn't hear such things."

"By the way, Aunt Zhang boiled tea eggs today; I was about to go over—want me to bring you two?"

Xiao Chan scratched her head, glanced toward the master bedroom, then at the longtime friend before her, and ultimately chose to believe.

"Then... then bring two."

"Okay, no problem."

Xiang Lan was very happy and skipped away.

Then Qing'er walked over, patted Xiao Chan's shoulder, and said, "From now on don't rush, just get used to it."

Xiao Chan: "......"

She truly didn't know what to say.

Listening to the commotion from the master bedroom, it sounded like they were about to come to blows?

How can you all be so calm?

And you tell me to get used to it—this might be a bit hard to get used to.

Xiao Chan silently nodded, suddenly feeling less hopeful about her future life.

"......"

Inside the master bedroom, Chen Yan and Gao Yang angrily shouted at each other, while Li Lizhi clung to the blanket to cover her lovely figure, gradually calming from her initial panic.

Chen Yan and Gao Yang also grew tired from arguing.

The two panted, glaring at each other, their eyes seeming to want to devour the other alive.

After a few breaths, Chen Yan's anger eased a little, but his words were still not very polite.

"When the hell did you come back?"

"Besides, you came back, so why didn't you say hello? Appearing by the bed like a ghost early in the morning—do you want to scare me to death?"

"I can't scare you to death, you bastard!" Gao Yang retorted, "This is my room; what right do I have not to come?"

Chen Yan snapped, "Your room?"

"Damn it, does this room have your name written on it? This is clearly my room!"

"Bullshit!" Gao Yang fumed, "This is our bridal chamber; how is it not my room?"

"Then call it and see if it answers," Chen Yan replied irritably.

"All day long, can't you settle down with that big belly?"

"In such cold weather, can't you sleep a bit longer?"

"Do you have to go looking for trouble?"

Gao Yang snorted coldly, "I don't care, anyway......"

Before she could finish speaking, she saw Chen Yan's face darken, his eyes flashing a warning.

The rest of her words got stuck in her throat.

Gao Yang pursed her lips, "Fine, fine, I'm leaving, okay?"

She understood that Chen Yan had surely guessed her purpose, and that warning look meant rejection.

At least today it was a refusal.

After Gao Yang left, Chen Yan turned around and saw Li Lizhi looking at him with interest, "You two...... usually get along like this?"

"Pretty much." Chen Yan shrugged, "Many times I argue with Gao Yang like this, though we also have good communication sometimes."

"It's actually quite fun; you'll understand later."

He said that while getting dressed.

Then he said to Li Lizhi, "Alright, I'll go out first and call Xiao Chan in for you; after you get ready, come out. Zhang Yi has probably finished the breakfast."

Li Lizhi smiled in response, and after watching Chen Yan leave, let out a faint sigh……

Meanwhile, Chen Yan went straight to Gao Yang, who hadn't gone far, and led her into a guest room.

"What are you doing?"

"We just got married yesterday; doing this, where does it leave Li Lizhi's face?"

Gao Yang wriggled out of Chen Yan's grasp, tilted her head, and said nothing.

She actually knew this was wrong, but she couldn't help it.

Thinking that yesterday was Chen Yan and Li Lizhi's wedding night, she hadn't slept well all night.

Seeing that, Chen Yan softened his tone, "Tang'er, didn't we already discuss this?"

"Didn't you also say you could accept Li Lizhi?"

"You two sisters, why do you have to make it so ugly?"

"If you keep acting like this, how much more difficult will it be for me stuck in the middle?"

"Is that already making it difficult?" Gao Yang sneered, "The even tougher part is still ahead."

"Let me ask you, whose is the master bedroom?"

"Who will get the hairpin from now on?"

The hairpin she mentioned, of course, refers only to the one belonging to the principal wife.

Gao Yang seemed to be asking about the hairpin and the master bedroom, but she was actually inquiring how to handle the two of their statuses.

After all, whether it's Li Shimin or Chen Yan, even Empress Changsun is avoiding this issue.

Chen Yan suddenly felt a headache and said, "You both have hairpins; let's decide it like this!"

"As for the master bedroom…… I have plenty of money; later I'll tear down the current master bedroom, expand it, and then split it into two rooms, one for each of you. Is that okay?"

Gao Yang immediately understood Chen Yan's idea.

Doing so is just to make everyone's face look good, trying to keep the water level even.

Gao Yang had no objection to this, because if it had to be blown up, the two would have to be ranked, and if Li Shimin and the others intervened, Li Lizhi would definitely win.

But Gao Yang still had a question.

She pressed her lips together, feeling uneasy inside, yet appeared very resolute.

"That day, when it was snowing, does what you said to me still count?"

Chen Yan gave her a cold look, "It always counts, okay?"

"I'm really impressed by you."

Gao Yang let out a light hum, then displayed a brilliant smile.

"......."
