Chapter 190 Shen Sangwan is always getting the short end of the stick
A villa outside Zhongdu City.
Shuyi Qingque and Ruoying were playing leaf cards together with Cen Yan.
She had just learned this skill and found it very interesting, so she insisted on having the three of them accompany her.
After meeting Lin Wanyi, Shen Sangwan, seeing that it was still early, went to Cen Yan's place instead.
Upon arriving at the villa, I saw several people frolicking together, and I immediately felt a little resentful.
When will this lousy system assign some tasks to her little Yan Yan? She's always running around and can't stand seeing others living a peaceful life.
"Cough-cough-"
None of them noticed when she came in, so Shen Sangwan had to cough loudly a few times.
"Your Highness?"
Upon hearing the noise, the group stopped what they were doing and turned around to look.
Shuyi was the most excited. She got up and ran quickly to Shen Sangwan. She looked him over from head to toe and was relieved to find that her lord was not injured.
"Is Your Highness here to escort the Princess back to the palace?"
"You will stay here for a few more days. After you have finished dealing with matters in the palace, you can return to the palace."
"Your Highness, is my lady well?"
Qingque had not received any messages from Wen Yuening and was very worried. After hesitating for a while, she finally asked Shen Sangwan.
The mere mention of Wen Yuening made Shen Sangwan's mind go blank.
She nodded awkwardly but politely, and seemed to be gritting her teeth as she spoke, "She's perfectly fine."
With so much energy, and still causing trouble in the middle of the night, how can things not be good?
Only Cen Yan noticed the mark on Shen Sangwan's neck and heard Shen Sangwan's slightly resentful tone, so she covered her mouth and began to chuckle to herself.
"You may all leave now. I have something to discuss with the princess."
Ruoying and the others immediately walked out of the courtyard, making sure to close the door before leaving.
"Little Yan Yan—!"
Once the person had walked away, Shen Sangwan immediately put her hands on her hips and scolded them.
"Pfft-hahaha!"
"It's one thing for you to chuckle secretly, but now you're laughing openly. Xiao Yan Yan, don't go too far."
Cen Yan carefully collected the playing cards on the table, one by one.
"Shen Sangwan, you know what, I'm actually quite curious about how Yue Ning is messing with you. Maybe I should eavesdrop on her sometime?"
These words completely enraged Shen Sangwan, who clenched her fists and was about to punch Cen Yan.
"A gentleman talks but never moves his hands!"
Seeing Shen Sangwan running towards him, he quickly got up and circled around the card table to avoid her "attack".
"I'm not a gentleman, I don't need to follow these stupid rules with you."
"Eh—it seems Yue Ning held back. She didn't torment you enough, otherwise you wouldn't have the energy to play around with me now. Once we return to the palace in a few days, I'll definitely—"
Before Cen Yan could finish speaking, Shen Sangwan was so anxious that she climbed over the table to catch her.
"I was wrong, I was wrong. I'll remember to tell you secretly next time."
While admitting her mistake after being caught, Cen Yan continued to provoke the other party.
"Hahaha...no...no...stop tickling, hahaha, it tickles—ah!"
Unable to break free, Cen Yan laughed wildly while trying her best to cover her waist.
"I'll have to find someone to sew your mouth shut with a needle."
After making a fuss for a long time, Cen Yan was already panting and quickly waved her hands, "I was wrong, I was wrong, I was really wrong."
"Little Yan Yan, if you ever dare to laugh at me about this again, I'll find ten or eight beauties to bewitch you until you're dead, and then..."
Halfway through her sentence, Shen Sangwan winked at Cen Yan, hinting at something. As her longtime friend, Cen Yan immediately understood what she meant.
I couldn't help but kick the other person.
“I’m not like you, I don’t have those kinds of fetishes. If you dare to do it, I’ll tell Yue Ning that it was arranged for you, and she’ll definitely kill you.”
Shen Sangwan feels that she is frustrated in every aspect of life.
With Wen Yuening being suppressed and Cen Yan suffering setbacks, life is simply unbearable.
Like a deflated balloon, he slumped listlessly onto the soft couch beside him.
"I think I'll sleep here tonight and don't want to go back to the palace."
"Sure, by the way, I just learned how to play leaf cards. If you keep them, we can play together."
Upon hearing that Shen Sangwan wanted to stay, Cen Yan immediately recommended the newly acquired playing cards, almost as if she was about to go out and call the others in to start another game.
"Little Yan Yan, have you forgotten that there's a living Yama in the palace? If I don't go back, you might never see me again."
Shen Sangwan turned over, her face full of sorrow, making Cen Yan want to laugh but dare not.
He could only suppress a smile and say, "You chose this wife yourself, so you have to accept it no matter what."
Are you settling in well here?
"It's alright. The air is good, the environment is nice, and there's not much to bother you. I think it's a great place to retire."
Cen Yan sat back down at the mahjong table, seriously analyzing the location and surrounding environment of the villa.
"Then I'll take it to you. In a couple of days, I'll have Shuyun take the land deed and other documents to the government office to complete the relevant procedures."
"Shen Sangwan, when are you going to change your habit of giving away houses so casually? Back when you were in school, you loved giving people villas, and now you're giving away courtyard houses?"
Shen Sangwan sat up halfway and shrugged. "Back when I was in school, it wasn't my money anyway, so I didn't care. Besides, I did it on purpose. But now it's different. You like this villa, and I happen to have one. Isn't it only natural to give it to you?"
"???"
What's the difference? It's not your own money anyway, so you don't care, and you still say it in such a high-sounding way.
However, she couldn't refuse something given away for free, so Cen Yan curled her lips into a fawning smile and said, "Then I thank Your Highness for your kindness!"
"You damned bastard—"
He grabbed a soft pillow from the side and threw it at Cen Yan.
"I'm just learning from you, and I've only reached one level of your skill."
Upon hearing this, Shen Sangwan felt goosebumps all over her body and thought to herself, "Is she really that disgusting?"
"Ahem, well... it's getting late, I'll head back now."
He glanced at the sky outside the window and coughed twice to cover his embarrassment.
Cen Yan saw through it but didn't say anything, waving her hand to tell people to leave quickly.
"Remember to call Shuyi and the others in to continue once you're out."
"Playing cards is fine, but don't stay up late playing; it's bad for your health."
Just before leaving, Shen Sangwan turned back, intending to give Cen Yan some advice, but Cen Yan couldn't help but feel a little uncomfortable when she heard the words "harmful to health".
He retorted, "Staying up late is indeed bad for your health, but compared to your excessive indulgence, it's nothing."
Shen Sangwan slammed her fist on the door frame beside her, then turned around and stormed out in a huff.
Upon seeing Shuyi and the others, he specifically instructed them to take good care of Cen Yan, preferably for several days and nights without rest.
"Your Highness, our lives matter too! This is outrageous!"
Shuyi inwardly groaned; playing cards was indeed a good way to pass the time and have some fun on a regular basis.
But if you keep playing, it will take a toll on your mental energy.
