In the bedroom, Wen Lan Sheng changed Fan Xia into her pajamas and tucked in the corners of the blanket.

He sat quietly by the bed, watching Fan Xia sleep soundly, completely unaware of what had happened. He felt angry, resentful, and helpless. Leaning on her chest, he murmured pitifully: “You’re fine, sleeping through everything, you don’t even know how Rong Xiu bullied me just now… Xia Xia, if you weren’t drunk, you would have defended me, right?”

The answer he got was Fan Xia’s quiet breathing, and the sound of his parents seeing Rong Xiu off and closing the door in the living room.

Wen Lan Sheng hugged her neck, closing his eyes and self-deluding: “You definitely would have.”

Xie Cen walked into the bedroom, saw Wen Lan Sheng hugging Fan Xia, and complained: “You really are something, giving your mom such a loss of face in front of others.”

At the mention of this, the fire that Wen Lan Sheng had just managed to digest flared up again.

He sat up abruptly, shouting in a loss of composure: “You know Rong Xiu is an outsider too! Dad, if Mom can’t see it clearly, can’t you? That Rong Xiu clearly came to humiliate me today! He entered our home carrying my wife in front of our whole family! He touched and fondled my wife in front of the three of us! He even ordered me around like a servant! Not only did you not help me, but you were so cowardly in front of him. You’re my parents, not his employees, what are you afraid of him for!”

Xie Cen glared at him: “You think I don’t know that man surnamed Rong has ambiguous attitudes towards our Fan Xia? His eyes were practically glued to Fan Xia. But what can we do? If you offend him and cause Fan Xia to lose her job, do you think Fan Xia won’t hate you?”

“I’ve been considering this point, that’s why I’ve been holding back all this time…”

“It’s right to hold back.” Xie Cen grasped Wen Lan Sheng’s hand: “Think about it, with Rong Xiu’s family background, wealth, and decent looks, if Fan Xia really had feelings for him, Rong Xiu wouldn’t need to come personally to provoke you. So why did he come today?”

Wen Lan Sheng looked at Xie Cen and shook his head.

“It’s because Fan Xia isn’t taking the bait. She has you in her heart, she remembers your kindness to her when she was in trouble. So Rong Xiu can only start with you. He’s deliberately provoking you, making you hysterical, making you go crazy, wearing away Fan Xia’s love for you, making Fan Xia think you’ve changed. This way he can take advantage of the situation.”

Wen Lan Sheng listened with trepidation.

Indeed, old ginger is spicier. If Xie Cen hadn’t explained this layer to him, tomorrow when Fan Xia sobered up, he would definitely have harped on about this to Fan Xia relentlessly. By then, Fan Xia would surely find him annoying, think he was making a big deal out of nothing, and the wall of estrangement would be built up through one small incident after another.

“Dad, what should I do?” Wen Lan Sheng gripped Xie Cen’s hand tightly.

“In my opinion, if Rong Xiu wants to debase himself, let him be despicable. The most important thing for you now is not to fight with him. You really can’t beat him in a fight. But don’t forget, you are Fan Xia’s original match. The most important thing now is to be extra good to Fan Xia, win over her heart, don’t let the wedding have any changes. Most importantly…” Xie Cen pointed at Wen Lan Sheng’s belly: “Quickly get pregnant with a child. Fan Xia is an orphan, such people value family ties above all else. As long as you’re pregnant with her child, even if she really has something going on with Rong Xiu, her heart will still be with you.”

Wen Lan Sheng covered his belly, his eyes roiling with a crazy possessiveness: “I understand.”

He would definitely get pregnant with Fan Xia’s child, keeping Fan Xia by his side forever, never letting anyone take her away.

Xie Cen patted his shoulder: “It’s good that you can understand. Fan Xia has such a good job, it would be a shame to lose it. Do you know, just because of Fan Xia’s job, she knows a lot of insider information. That stock she recommended to your mom a while back has skyrocketed. In just a few days, your mom made fifty thousand yuan.”

“Fifty thousand?”

“Yes, you don’t know, when your mom saw the stock price rise so much, she was heartbroken, regretting not investing more. Otherwise, it could have been possible to earn 200,000. But your mom and I only had that little bit of money left.” Xie Cen sighed: “If we had known, we should have borrowed money to invest. Fan Xia’s insider information is so accurate.”

But Wen Lan Sheng didn’t care how much money they had made from stocks. He only cared about one thing: “Mom made fifty thousand from stocks, so why did you cry poor to Xia Xia today and ask her to send money to Jing Jing?”

“Uh—” Xie Cen coughed awkwardly: “That’s a separate matter.”

“What separate matter? You clearly have money, so why do you still need Xia Xia to pay?” Wen Lan Sheng’s tone was agitated: “You clearly know that Xia Xia and I have been saving money to buy a new house recently. Not only are you not helping, but you’re taking money from us to subsidize Wen Jing?”

“We’re all family, what’s wrong with helping out? Besides, your sister is alone abroad, it’s always good to have some extra money,” Xie Cen said.

“You only know how to indulge her, just sending money without properly educating her. This will only harm her, letting her learn improper things,” Wen Lan Sheng snorted.

“Alright, I won’t argue with you. Go to sleep early.” Xie Cen knew he had slipped up and was in the wrong. Plus, Wen Lan Sheng had just been provoked by Rong Xiu today and his emotions were unstable. He didn’t want to continue the conversation, planning to explain properly to Wen Lan Sheng tomorrow.

Who knew that at four o’clock in the morning, Xie Cen would cry out and knock on the door of the master bedroom.

“Lan Sheng! Fan Xia! Wake up quickly, something’s happened!” Xie Cen knocked on the master bedroom door with great agitation.

Fan Xia was also woken up in a daze, sat up holding her slightly aching temples, and Wen Lan Sheng hurried to open the door.

“Dad, what’s wrong? What happened?”

Xie Cen held up his phone, frantically pulling Wen Lan Sheng’s hand: “Lan Sheng, your sister, she’s been expelled from school.”

“What?” Wen Lan Sheng’s sleepiness instantly cleared: “What exactly happened? Wasn’t everything fine just a few days ago? How did she suddenly get expelled?”

“They say it’s for cheating on an exam.” Xie Cen said tearfully: “What are we going to do? Our family emptied all our money bags to send your sister to study abroad, even selling your grandmother’s old house and rural homestead. We were just thinking she was about to graduate and could ease the pressure on the family, when suddenly this kind of thing happens…”

“Dad, dad, don’t cry first. I remember usually cheating on an exam doesn’t lead to direct expulsion.”

My Ex-Girlfriend Is The Regent In The Female-dominant World (Male lead transmigrates to the matriarchal world)

Two years ago, Gu Sui picked up a homeless woman in ancient costume from the street.

Apart from occasionally claiming to be a princess from a female-dominant country due to illness, her figure, appearance, intelligence, and martial arts skills were impeccable.

Naturally evolving from roommates to girlfriends, as time went on, Gu Sui found it increasingly difficult to tolerate her queen syndrome.

“Mu Jiulu, can you stop controlling me inside and out? Let’s break up.”

Gu Sui made a breakup call, and since then, he couldn’t find any trace of her.

A year later, Gu Sui, who was planning to move, woke up the next day and found himself in a different place.

“Young Master, today is the day you choose your Wife-master through martial arts competition at Jade Dew Pavilion. Please get up quickly.”

Gu Sui: Who am I? Where am I? What am I doing?

As the only son of a general’s mansion in a female-dominant dynasty, the young empress personally issued a decree allowing Gu Sui to select his Wife-master through martial arts competition. Whoever could defeat him could marry him.

Gu Sui: “……”

He didn’t inherit the original owner’s martial prowess, so anyone could defeat him! And what the hell is a Wife-master?

Forced to come to Jade Dew Pavilion, the densely packed women below made Gu Sui’s agoraphobia act up, and his face was full of resistance.

Until he saw the Regent sitting on the second floor, with a smile on the corner of her lips, her eyes wicked and nonchalant.

Hmm… she looked a little familiar.

It turned out that the Regent also found him a little familiar.

Mu Jiulu fiddled with her bone clasp, her deep gaze locked on the man who was out of place in this world.

“Finally, I found you.”
