Chapter 404 The Scumbag Woman Reborn, the Regent Prince Refuses to Be a Sucker 22

Yun Qing was so moved that her eyes welled up with tears. Like a little wife, she grabbed Helian Yin's sleeve and shook it, saying softly, "Husband, you are so good!"

Helian Yin gently patted her forehead, "Pretending to be moved is not as good as giving me a kiss."

Yun Qing tugged at his sleeve and followed him outside, saying, "You're talking nonsense, I'm genuinely touched!"

Helian Yin held out his palm to her, "Come on, let me see how moved you are."

Yun Qing's competitive spirit immediately kicked in.

She reached out and grabbed his hand, pulled it in front of her, lowered her head and blinked, letting the tears in her eyes fall into his palm.

Then she looked up at him with a hint of provocation, waiting for his reaction.

Helian Yin: ? ? ?

He was both amused and exasperated. He reached out and wiped away her tears, saying helplessly, "I meant for you to hold my hand."

Yun Qing: Huh? Weren't you going to see how moved I was? I was so moved I cried!

Helian Yin chuckled and took her hand, their fingers intertwined. "You're so touched, don't you have to give me something in return? Where's your sincerity?"

Yun Qing: ...Who knew you wanted to hold hands!

Chunhua and Qiushuang followed behind, heads bowed, trying to suppress their laughter. The young lady and the regent had such a good relationship!

After ensuring that all the gifts for her mother reached her, Yunqing went to the Prince's mansion storeroom and personally selected gifts for her mother.

After the return gifts were prepared again, the group set off.

Yun Qing was helped into the carriage. After the carriage curtain was lowered, she turned around and threw herself into Helian Yin's arms, cupping his face and giving him a quick kiss. "Husband~ Is that enough sincerity?"

Helian Yin frowned seriously and said, "What kind of behavior is this!"

Then, when Yun Qing tried to back away, he reached out and touched her lower back, pulled her onto his lap, and kissed her.

When Yun Qing was released, she raised her hand and punched him lightly, panting, "What was the point of your fake seriousness?"

Helian Yin lightly pecked the corner of her lips, his expression unchanged, and said, "How am I being hypocritical? I mean, what kind of behavior is that, just one kiss?"

Yun Qing: ...

?

When the carriage stopped at the entrance of the Marquis's residence, the Marquis of Ning'an and his wife were already waiting there.

Because the change of the homecoming gifts had taken some time, Lady Ning'an was getting a little anxious. She only breathed a sigh of relief when she saw the Regent's carriage.

Helian Yin got off the carriage first.

"Greetings, Regent."

Helian Yin ignored the Marquis of Ning'an and instead reached out to help the Marquis's wife up, preventing her from bowing. "Mother-in-law, there's no need for such formalities."

Marquis Ning'an, who was performing the salutation: ? ? ?

Lady Ning'an, who was unable to perform the ceremony: ? ? ?

Confused on both faces.

Upon hearing the voice of the Lady of Ning'an Marquis, Yun Qing couldn't contain herself any longer and excitedly lifted the carriage curtain to emerge, "Mother..."

She tried to jump off the carriage, but Helian Yin quickly turned around, put his arm around her waist, and pulled her down safely.

"Greetings to the Regent's Wife."

Yun Qing quickly grabbed Lady Ning'an, "Oh! Mother, don't bother with these formalities, look at the good things I brought you."

She then casually said to Marquis Ning'an, "Father, please don't stand on ceremony."

Then he pulled Lady Ning'an inside, revealing his hand hidden in his sleeve and presenting it to her, "Mother, look at this pearl, it's so big and round."

Lady Ning'an's eyes lit up. She had always loved pearls, and this pearl was exceptionally rare in color and size, and it was also remarkably round.

She reached out and touched it with delight. "Is this for me?"

Yun Qing nodded repeatedly, "This is the most beautiful pearl in the Prince's storeroom. I stole it for you. Aren't you happy?"

She did indeed steal the pearl openly when she went to the Prince's Palace storeroom to choose gifts.

There wouldn't have been a problem with putting it directly in her mother's gift, but she just liked the feeling of secretly bringing her mother a gift and making her happy.

Upon hearing her words, Lady Ning'an was so "happy" that her legs went weak and she almost knelt down. "You, you, you..." You dared to steal things from the Prince's treasury?

Upon hearing the conversation between the mother and daughter, Marquis Ning'an's expression changed, and he was about to reprimand Yun Qing when Helian Yin spoke first, saying, "If Mother-in-law likes them, I will have some more sent over."

The words that Marquis Ning'an was about to say were forced back down his throat.

Lady Ning'an Marquis hurriedly and cautiously declined.

However, seeing that the Regent was not displeased with the pearls that Yunqing insisted on giving her, she accepted them. She felt as sweet as if she had eaten honey. She also liked the feeling of her daughter secretly bringing her a gift.

She doesn't even have a father, huh!

Marquis Ning'an was busy trying to get closer to the Regent, while Lady Ning'an took Yun Qing to the backyard for a private chat.

She had her maid prepare some pastries and candied fruits that Yun Qing liked, and immediately asked, "The Regent hasn't tormented you, has he?"

Although the Regent seemed quite approachable just now, she wouldn't feel at ease until she got to the bottom of things.

"Uh...no...I don't think so."

Lady Ning'an looked at her suspiciously, "Does it exist or not?"

Yun Qing shook her head firmly, "No, the food at the Prince's Mansion is delicious."

Lady Ning'an: ...My silly daughter! Who asked you about the dishes at the Prince's residence? I was asking if the Regent had given you any trouble!

However, since they were so satisfied with the food at the Prince's Mansion, it seems they weren't hungry at all.

Then Lady Ning'an asked hesitantly in a low voice, "Did the Regent consummate your marriage?"

Yun Qing had just popped a candied fruit into her mouth when she heard this and almost choked. "Cough cough... Mother, how can you be so direct?"

Lady Ning'an patted her back and said, "Then just answer me directly, don't make your mother worry all the time."

Yunqing wiped her mouth with a handkerchief, lowered her eyes somewhat shyly, and said, "Mother, don't worry, he and I are just like any other couple."

Lady Ning'an looked at her with suspicion, but Yun Qing said earnestly, "It's true, he didn't want to kill me or mistreat me. It was just a very ordinary marriage, with no other purpose."

Lady Ning'an nodded, relieved. "That's good."

“Yunqing, I know you’re wronged, but for your own life, you still have to learn to serve the Regent well. I’m just worried that if the Regent is dissatisfied, he might strangle you to death…”

"Do you know that ever since you got married, your mother has been dreaming about collecting your body every night..."

"Every night I collect corpses, every night the elderly bury their children..."

She spoke while tears streamed down her face, heartbroken.

Yun Qing: ...You really are my mother!

Yun Qing quickly took her arm and gently comforted her, but the more she comforted her, the more grief-stricken Lady Ning'an became, and she cried uncontrollably.

How could such a good daughter have such a miserable life!

Finally, Yunqing had no choice but to close her eyes and say, "Mother! Don't worry, he takes good care of me, I'm very satisfied, I promise I won't strangle him!"

The Lady of Ning'an Marquis's crying stopped abruptly.

She stared at Yun Qing, completely bewildered. You call this an ordinary couple? What ordinary wife would dare to be so arrogant and disrespectful? That's the Regent!

She carefully recalled their brief encounter and realized that the Regent was indeed quite indulgent towards Yun Qing.

Her expression turned serious. "Yunqing, men have always been fickle. Even if the Regent is currently favoring you, you cannot take his favor for granted."

"Otherwise, once the novelty wears off, all your current transgressions will become reasons for him to dislike you and use them as leverage against you in the future."

Yun Qing nodded seriously, "I understand, Mother. I was just being outspoken in front of you. In the Prince's mansion, I'm very gentle and considerate, otherwise the Regent wouldn't treat me differently!"

Lady Ning'an was finally relieved.

Qi Ying: ? ...

The princess has a knack for coaxing people.

Yun Qing simply knew her mother all too well.

If she were to assure her that Helian Yin was different from other men, Lady Ning'an would feel like the sky had fallen, and she would live in constant fear, lest Helian Yin change his mind one day and cause her daughter unbearable pain.

If she dares to say that Helian Yin has changed his mind, she will poison him. That would be even worse. This daughter has gone mad with greed and loss!

She can only feel at ease when she feels that her daughter is clear-headed.

Lady Ning'an's wish was actually very simple: she just wanted her daughter to live a good life and have a peaceful existence.
