Red Mansion is so charming

Chapter 67: Unravel the red frost and leave a light (please collect and read)
In the dead of night, Su Ran left the Qin family.

When he returned to the mansion, except for the guards at the door who were still standing guard, everyone had basically rested.

However, in the dark courtyard, there was a light on in one room.

Su Ran followed the light, reached out and pushed the door of the room. After pushing, he found that the door was not locked.

It was only then that Su Ran realized that it seemed like she had never set foot in this room.

He gently pushed the door open and saw a solitary lamp like a bean lighting up inside.

Under the flickering lights, a woman in a black nightgown sat quietly by the bed with downcast eyes.

Su Ran stood there and looked at her for a while, then deliberately coughed.

This cough immediately made the person next to the bed raise their heads in surprise.

This woman is Hong Shuang who was brought back from Yixiang Tower not long ago.

Seeing Su Ran, a trace of nervousness flashed across her eyes.

The next moment, she hurriedly pulled the hem of her clothes and stood up from the bed.

"Master, you...why aren't you asleep yet?"

"Aren't you sleeping too?" Su Ran looked at her and said, "Are you worried about staying up so late?"

"No, no, I just can't sleep." Hongshuang replied with evasive eyes.

Seeing this, Su Ran turned around and closed the door gently, then picked up a chair and sat down.

"Master, how about I make you a cup of tea?" Hongshuang's expression was still a little awkward.

"No, I just came back from outside and saw that the light in your room was still on, so I came in to take a look. Are you really okay?"

"It's...it's okay. I just couldn't sleep, so I just got up and sat for a while. I'll be fine in a while." Hongshuang brushed a lock of long hair beside her ear and smiled pretending to be relaxed.

Seeing this, Su Ran nodded slightly: "In that case, I won't disturb your rest. It's getting late. You go to bed quickly. I'll go back first." After saying that, Su Ran stood up and left.

However, just when he took two steps, Hong Shuang behind him suddenly spoke.

"Master, do you dislike me? Do you dislike me for coming out of that place? Do you dislike me for being dirty?"

When Su Ran heard this, she knew that Hong Shuang was thinking wildly.

In desperation, he had no choice but to turn around and walk to her side.

Looking at this beautiful woman, Su Ran really didn't know what to say to her.

After a moment of silence, he pulled Hongshuang and sat down: "Remember, I don't want to hear such words from now on. Since I redeemed you, you are my woman."

"Since I am your woman, then why don't you... don't want me?" Hongshuang raised her eyes and looked at Su Ran and gathered up her courage.

When Su Ran heard this, she couldn't help but laugh speechlessly.

But such a smile fell on Hong Shuang's eyes, making her feel insulted.

"Master, if you dislike me in your heart, you will dislike me. At worst, I will go back to Yixiang Tower, so that I don't have to spend the night guarding this lonely pillow to grieve alone." When she said these words, tears were already shining in her eyes. .

Su Ran got angry when he saw the other party, so it was hard to say anything else.

After all, being in a situation like hers would inevitably lead to random thoughts.

In fact, from a man's perspective, there is nothing wrong with following what Hongshuang said.However, people are all about emotions after all. If you blindly use your lower body to think about problems, then what is the meaning of such a life?
Therefore, Su Ran has always believed that relationships between men and women should be based on feelings. If you only pursue sensual pleasure, you will probably become a slave to desire in the end.

Hongshuang is a normal woman, so when Su Ran explained this theory to her, she also understood the reason why Su Ran did this.

Love can only be called love when it comes naturally. Otherwise, it can only be pure lust for your body.

Half an hour later, Hong Shuang wisely pushed Su Ran out of the room, and she turned off the lights and went to bed.

That night, she slept soundly, and her previous worries were no longer in her heart.

When Su Ran returned to the house, she found that there was still a light that was not very bright outside, and it was surrounded by a circle of yellow paper.

Wang Xifeng had already fallen asleep, but she did not take off her clothes. Instead, she lay fully clothed on the bed, with only a corner of the quilt covering her body.

Su Ran looked at this woman, and suddenly felt a little distressed in her heart.

She must have been waiting for her to come back, but then she couldn't bear it anymore, so she slept with her clothes on.

Some people always say that Wang Xifeng, a woman, is vicious, merciless, likes to fight for power, and is mean to her subordinates.

But if she had other choices, would she still do it?
There are both good and evil sides in a person's nature. The environment you are in determines to a large extent whether you will show more good or evil.

Perhaps because he was a light sleeper, Wang Xifeng woke up just as Su Ran sat on the edge of the bed.

She rubbed her sleepy eyes and smiled: "Why did you come back so late? I accidentally fell asleep. Are you hungry? I left some food for you outside. I'll heat it up for you." As she spoke, she was about to sit up from the bed.

Seeing this, Su Ran quickly held her shoulders: "Don't get up. I'm not hungry. Take off your clothes and go to sleep. Don't catch a cold if you sleep with your clothes on."

Wang Xifeng's eyes were instantly filled with a happy smile when she heard Su Ran's heartwarming words.

She stared intently at the man in front of her, her well-maintained jade hands began to undress and take off her belt, and the corners of her mouth gradually rose.

When Su Ran saw this posture, he knew that he would probably not be able to sleep again for the rest of the night.

However, when a beautiful woman invites you, there is no reason not to work hard for it.

Two hours later, Wang Xifeng was once again tortured until she was as limp as mud, and it was difficult to even lift her fingertips.

At this time, there was already some light outside the window.

Su Ran is now a second-grade minister of the Ministry of War, so he still has to go to the morning court.

The moment he got up, he suddenly thought of an interesting question.

He only has a few wives, and they have been up all night. There are so many harems of Emperor Qingyong, how on earth did he get here every day?

Also, his own physique can be said to be almost invincible. How could he, Emperor Qingyong, have a mortal body and endure it?
However, Su Ran knew very well in his heart that this kind of thing can only be understood, and it's not easy to ask him himself.

Of course, you can't just ask any concubine in the harem.

Although he said he was walking in the south study room, he was only in the south study room, not in the harem.

Therefore, it is better not to go to that kind of place, otherwise it will be troublesome if Emperor Qingyong gets angry and accuses himself of causing trouble to the harem.

Thinking of this, Su Ran got up, and then, having breakfast served by Xiang Ling, got on the carriage to the palace.

Although Wang Xifeng always offered to ride in a sedan, Su Ran thought it was too slow, so she always preferred riding a carriage.
