After Giving Way To My Husband’s Sweetheart

 The setting sun was dim, outside the pavilion and beside the ancient road.

Sima Chuge and Zhou Shang were riding together, riding freely on the winding road.

Zhou Shang held the horse's reins with one hand and Sima Chuge in front of him with the other, and said: "We can get out of the pass in more than ten miles. When we get out of the pass, I will take you to Shuzhong."

Sima Chuge murmured back: "Except for the capital, the sky is vast and the earth is vast. I am willing to go with you wherever you go."

Zhou Shang touched Sima Chuge's head and said with a smile: "It seems that you really don't care about Jingzhong anymore."

Sima Chuge glanced sideways at Zhou Shang and replied: "Who said I don't have any concern? I miss my mother and brother, and I'm even more worried that my cousin's secret release of me will be revealed and she will be hurt."

Hearing this, Zhou Shang comforted Sima Chuge and said, "My cousin is extremely smart and has done this matter in a flawless manner. Don't worry, even if they try hard, they still can't figure out how you disappeared out of thin air."

Sima Chuge shook his head slightly and said worriedly: "It doesn't matter to others, I'm just worried about my elder brother. He is careful and smart. If I really want to investigate, I'm worried that my cousin's deception will not hide it from him."

Zhou Shang sighed slightly and replied: "The eldest son is indeed difficult to deal with, but he loves his cousin. Even if he knows that she did it, he will definitely not embarrass her."

At this moment, Sima Chao, who was being talked about by Zhou Shang and Sima Chuge, returned to Wangchun Hall with Love. He waved his hand and left the maid in the room, and asked Love with a cold face: "Second sister, is it true? Did you let him go?"

Several days have passed since this matter, and Sima Chao has never mentioned it again. Now when Love saw him asking a question suddenly, she glanced at Sima Chao and replied: "What? After hearing what Mr. Xie said, you also Are you following me to question me?"

Sima Chao sat down on the chair. He looked at Love and replied, "Actually, I knew you were responsible for this."

Hearing this, Love couldn't help but trembled in her heart, but she calmed down immediately.

Love sneered and replied: "You really think highly of me. I don't have the ability to let Chu Ge go in public."

With that said, she turned around to leave, but was held by Sima Chao. He pulled her in front of him, pushed her to sit down opposite, and said, "You did this, and you still don't want to admit it?"

Love replied: "It's not me!"

Sima Chao had a playful smile on his lips and said to Love: "Then why don't you dare to look at me? Ever since you were a child, you always look to the left whenever you lie."

Love quickly raised her eyes to look at Sima Chao and replied: "If I say it's not me, it's not me. Don't make random guesses."

Sima Chao looked at Love intently and said, "You can deceive others, but you can't hide it from me."

Seeing Luo Fu lowering his head and saying nothing, he continued: "Since you want to help Chu Ge, you should tell me and I will find a way to help you. If you are found out by being clever and taking risks like this, it will be a serious crime."

He sighed slightly and said: "Of course, you are mine, and I will protect you even if you are found out. But if you had let me know about this beforehand, I shouldn't have let you take such a desperate risk."

Sima Chao spoke sincerely. For a moment, Love was really moved, but then she came to her senses.

For someone as cold-hearted as Sima Chao, would he help her help Sima Chuge escape? He wished that Sima Chuge would enter the palace and contribute to the Sima family's struggle for power.

Love breathed a sigh of relief and replied calmly: "I'm really touched that you can protect me like this, but it's really not me who did this. Even I have a soul. Is this Chu Ge going to Xie?" Where did it go? The second master pressed me like that, but Mr. Xie didn't say anything. I was worried that Chu Ge had been killed by this cruel woman. "

After Sima Chao heard the words of the cunning little woman in front of him, he couldn't help laughing. He leaned over and looked at her and said: "Are you really worried about Chu Ge? Haha, since Chu Ge disappeared, what have you been talking about all day long? The 'worry' you are saying is not from your heart at all, do you think I can't see it?"

Love raised her head, her eyebrows were slightly furrowed, and her almond-shaped eyes were filled with slight anger: "Don't talk nonsense. How could I not really miss my cousin? She was killed by Xie and her whereabouts are unknown. I am worried every day."

Even when she is angry, she is so beautiful that people can’t help but feel moved.

Sima Chao glanced at Love's little appearance. With a smile on his lips, he said to her: "Anyway, you just don't want to tell me the truth, do you?"

Love rolled her eyes at Sima Chao: "If I tell you the truth, I've already told you. I didn't do this. If you don't believe it, I can't do anything."

 Speaking, she stood up angrily, left him behind, and went to the inner room angrily.

After a while, there were bursts of "crackling" sounds coming from the room. It was the sound of her taking off hairpins and jewelry. Although the sound was not particularly loud, it was still heard.

As if he had really wronged her.

Sima Chao poured a cup of tea by himself. He took a few sips carefully, stood up and walked to the inner room.

Love was sitting in front of the rhombus taking off her makeup. She glanced at Sima Chao through the rhombus, then put on an aggrieved face as if she had been wronged, and said with a dull face: "You always say that I am different from you. Heart, in fact, it is clear that you are too suspicious and always refuse to trust others. You are so difficult to get along with, so how can I be of the same mind as you?"

Sima Chao smiled faintly and replied: "As you put it, the reason why we are like this is not my fault."

"It's your fault." Love gave Sima Chao a white look through the rhombus mirror and took off the hairpin from her head.

Sima Chao strolled up to her. He stood behind her and raised his hand to help her remove the hairpin from the back. He then placed the removed hairpin on the dressing table and said lightly: "That's it. I don’t want to force you to tell the truth, I just want you to believe me.”

 His tone is sincere and his attitude is also sincere.

Love, however, remained unmoved: "I didn't do this, so don't get entangled with me anymore."

Seeing that she still refused to believe him, Sima Chao put away his smile and said coldly: "Then do you want me to arrest Lantian Yunuan and torture her?"

Love was shocked when she heard this. She quickly turned around and looked at Sima Chao and said, "You are really confused. They are my personal maids. What does this matter have to do with them? Why are you torturing them?"

“Not only Lantian Yunuan, but also the four or five children around Chu Ge. Haha, without their help, how could you use this blind trick?”

As he spoke, Sima Chao approached Luo Fu, raised his hand and gently pinched her small chin, and said with an evil smile: "I am reluctant to torture you, but I can do anything to them. As long as they are imprisoned in Zhao It won't take more than half a day in jail, so I won't worry about them not telling the truth."
