After rebirth, my elder sister wants to steal my husband!

Chapter 223 Reluctant

Fu Yuzhang held her in his arms and turned around and around like a fool.

Lu Zhiran was almost dizzy by him!

Finally, after Lu Zhiran's strong beatings and resistance, Fu Yuzhang let her go.

"I'm tired of you, I'm leaving now!"

Lu Zhiran left here angrily, but Fu Yuzhang couldn't suppress the smile.

Finally done!

Lu Zhiran was finally not angry anymore.

The teacher standing by felt so redundant at this moment and wanted to escape from here.

This brat Fu Yuzhang completely treated him as air!

It was unknown how long it had been before Fu Yuzhang finally came back to his senses and looked at the teacher.

"Teacher, we can start now!"

……

In Fu Yuzhang's study, the flickering candlelight illuminated his focused and determined face.

The teacher has left, but Fu Yuzhang is still immersed in today's teaching. It is more difficult for him to start learning again at his age, but he has already agreed to Lu Zhiran.

No matter how hard or tiring it is, he will persevere this time.

Many times, Fu Yuzhang was too annoyed to watch.

But when he thought of Lu Zhiran's angry little face, he obediently picked up the book and continued reading.

Just then, there was the sound of light footsteps outside the door, accompanied by a faint fragrance.

Fu Yuzhang frowned slightly. He knew who was coming without looking up.

A trace of annoyance flashed through my mind.

He looked up towards the door and saw a graceful woman coming in. It was his once most beloved concubine, Zhang Xiangxiu.

Lu Zhiran and Fu Yuzhang had stayed in the city for a few days and both looked much darker. On the contrary, Zhang Xiangxiu, who had been taking good care of herself in the capital, now looked beautiful, with skin as white as snow and a sad glimmer in her eyes.

She was wearing a light pink long dress, the hem of which swayed gently with her steps, like a fairy descending to earth.

Her appearance instantly broke the tranquility of the study.

"Husband, it's so late, why are you still reading here?" Zhang Xiangxiu asked in a soft voice, with a hint of tenderness in her tone.

Fu Yuzhang came back to his senses and looked at Zhang Xiangxiu's charming appearance, but his heart was calm.

"What are you doing here?"

Fu Yuzhang's attitude was very cold.

He remembered clearly how Zhang Xiangxiu had framed Lu Zhiran. The white moonlight that once belonged to him now had cracks, and Fu Yuzhang didn't even want to look at it again.

"Of course I miss the Marquis, so I came to see him!" Zhang Xiangxiu pretended not to see the disgust in Fu Yuzhang's eyes. She walked to Fu Yuzhang and gently pulled up his sleeve, trying to get his attention.

Fu Yuzhang looked at Zhang Xiangxiu's charming appearance, but his heart was as calm as still water.

He gently broke free from Zhang Xiangxiu's hand and said calmly, "I've finished copying the book I asked you to copy."

When Zhang Xiangxiu heard this, a hint of disappointment flashed in her eyes.

"Finished copying!"

Fu Yuzhang: "Then send it to Madam."

At this moment, Fu Yuzhang treated Zhang Xiangxiu in a completely businesslike manner, and there was no trace of the flirting he had with her in the past.

Zhang Xiangxiu pursed her lips and said, "I have sent the copied book to my sister!"

Then she whispered, "I heard that my husband has been studying hard in the study today. I am worried about his health, so I specially cooked a bowl of bird's nest and sent it to him."

As she spoke, she took a bowl of steaming bird's nest from the maid behind her and handed it to Fu Yuzhang.

Fu Yuzhang looked at the bird's nest in front of him, but his heart was not disturbed at all. He gently pushed the bowl of bird's nest away and said coldly: "No need, I know my limits."

When Zhang Xiangxiu heard this, the disappointment in her eyes became even more obvious.

She bit her lip, as if she wanted to say something, but ended up sighing.

She turned and looked out the window. The moonlight shone on her, casting a silver halo on her.

"My dear husband, you have changed." Zhang Xiangxiu said faintly, with a hint of resentment and helplessness in her voice, "You used to love me so much, but now you don't even want to look at me."

Fu Yuzhang sneered in his heart when he heard this. He glanced at Zhang Xiangxiu calmly and said, "People always change, just like you, haven't you changed too!"

Zhang Xiangxiu's body trembled slightly when she heard this.

She turned around and looked directly into Fu Yuzhang's eyes, with a firm light flashing in her eyes: "My heart has never changed, it's just that my husband's heart has changed."

Fu Yuzhang didn't want to get entangled with Zhang Xiangxiu anymore, and said coldly: "Why did I change my mind? You know what you did."

He waved his hand, signaling her to leave.

Finally, he added: "Don't force me to say something too harsh."

Seeing this, a trace of unwillingness and resentment flashed in Zhang Xiangxiu's eyes. She had been enduring it again and again tonight, but at this moment she finally couldn't bear it anymore.

"What did I do to make you treat me like that? It was just a fake pregnancy, and I wanted you to pay more attention to me."

"Do you think Lu Zhiran is a good person? She said she went to Ping'an Temple to pray, but she actually went to Chengguan quietly. How dare you say there is no trick here? You clearly know everything, but you are still protecting her with your grandmother."

As she said this, Zhang Xiangxiu was so angry that she almost couldn't breathe.

She hated it. It was obvious that Lu Zhiran's family background, appearance and talent were not as good as hers. Why was Lu Zhiran his wife and she his concubine?

Facing Fu Yuzhang's angry gaze, Zhang Xiangxiu sneered: "She even brought back a man and arranged for him to live in her own house, intending to hide her in a golden house..."

"My Lord, do you still think Lu Zhiran is better than me?"

Zhang Xiangxiu's face was originally pretty, but now it seemed a little distorted due to anger and jealousy.

She opened her eyes wide and bit her lower lip tightly, as if she wanted to vent all her hatred.

"How dare you send someone to follow Zhiran?" Fu Yuzhang's voice was as cold as ice, and every word seemed to be squeezed out from between his teeth.

Zhang Xiangxiu sneered. She raised her head unwillingly and looked straight into Fu Yuzhang's eyes. "What? The governor is allowed to set fires, but the people are not allowed to light lamps? She, Lu Zhiran, can do whatever she wants, so why can't I?"

Fu Yuzhang was so angry that he was shaking all over. He slammed the table and shouted angrily: "Lu Zhiran has never done anything to let you down. Why do you want to slander her like this?"

Zhang Xiangxiu was frightened by Fu Yuzhang's angry shout, but she quickly straightened her back and sneered:

"Yes, she has never done anything to let me down!"

"My Lord, I just hate you. Why did Lu Zhiran do something wrong and you protected him? What about me? Am I unforgivable?"

Zhang Xiangxiu said, her eyes blurred with tears, her clothes wet with tears: "Once upon a time, you also favored me..."
