Reincarnation: My Possessive Beast Husband

Chapter 42 - 42: Know When to Stop



Chapter 42: Chapter 42: Know When to Stop
 

The carriage was spacious enough for four people to lie side by side; inside, there was a soft divan and a red sandalwood writing table.

On the table sat a teacup and teapot, as well as a lotus-shaped incense burner cast in bronze.

One could faintly detect the lingering scent of incense within the carriage.

Chu Yuxiao was leaning against the divan, flipping through a scroll since the moment he entered.

His lips were slightly pursed, emitting a faint aura of asceticism from his cold, aloof face.

His long, powerful fingers turned pages from time to time, and with every subtle movement of his sleeves, his gestures conveyed an effortless nobility and grace.

...

Su Yan sat on a cushion beside the table, her body lazily leaning against the carriage wall, her eyes incessantly observing him.

If one could overlook the violence he had inflicted upon her, he could indeed be considered a peerless individual in the mortal world.

Skilled in martial arts, clever, powerful, and what’s more, incredibly handsome.

Such a man was hard to find even if you searched with a lantern.

Unfortunately, he had the temperament of a beast, which really confirmed the phrase “a fair face may hide a foul heart.”

And she had once been infatuated with him, truly at a loss as to what she had seen in him at the time.

Thankfully, she had not fallen in love with him and was able to withdraw in time, otherwise mired deep in a quagmire, she might never have known how she died.

After watching him for a while, Su Yan laughed self-deprecatingly and turned her head to lift the curtain, gazing out at the scenery.

Just then, Chu Yuxiao’s gaze indifferently shifted from his book to her.

After observing Su Yan for a moment, he too withdrew his gaze and ceased to look at her.

The carriage traveled for nearly two hours, arriving at a mountainous temple called Ciyun Hall.

Ciyun Hall was majestic and imposing, in no way inferior to some large temples, showcasing the vast wealth of the Chu family.

Greeting them were two maids along with an elderly nanny.

Upon stepping down from the carriage, the three bowed to them, after which the nanny stepped forward and said to Chu Yuxiao:

“Lady Lan has been waiting for the Marquis; she has fallen ill and cannot leave her bed to greet the Marquis. Lady Lan says, please forgive her, Marquis.”

Chu Yuxiao responded indifferently, “It’s not a problem; I shall go and see Aunt Lan now.”

Turning his head, he looked at Su Yan, as if to say, do you want to follow?

Su Yan paused for a moment, then nodded, “I will follow you.”
