Chapter 251: Paranoid Warlord and Vengeful Undercover (10)
The young commander whom he trusted and admired was so suspicious that he almost burst out. After struggling for a long time, he said coldly:
"Send someone to inform the Eighth Concubine, and wait for Pei Shichang to come back, and then use your ability to entangle him."
Adjutant Liu was a little excited and asked in a low voice: "Does the young marshal want to make the marshal fall into the gentleness of love and let down his guard?"
Pei Jingmo paused tapping the table, nodded and said coldly: "Tell her that if she wants to gain a foothold in the Marshal's Mansion, she must work hard on Pei Shichang."
Adjutant Liu felt a little strange, but nodded, turned around and prepared to make arrangements.
"Wait, tell her that Pei Shichang, who is the most pestering, doesn't have time to look for someone else."
Adjutant Liu staggered and suddenly realized that it was all for the Ninth Concubine.
Adjutant Liu walked out of the study in a daze, and once again sighed in his heart that beauty is the root of all evil. Even he, the cold and majestic young marshal who only cares about fighting, began to become overly thoughtful.
Originally, when he learned that Miss Ruan had become Marshal Pei's concubine by accident, he felt a little sorry for the young marshal.
I didn't expect that even after all this, the young marshal would ignore his status and get close to Miss Ruan. Whenever he saw Marshal Pei recently, he couldn't help but glance over his head.
Oh, it’s so green!
After giving the instructions, Pei Jingmo waved his hand and asked him to leave. He sat alone in the study for a long time.
After a while, the hands on the table slowly clenched into fists, and he leaned back in the chair and exhaled deeply.
He thought to himself that Ruan Guannan's identity was too suspicious. If she was allowed to extract something from Pei Shichang, the safety of the people of Jincheng would be threatened.
It would be better to separate this woman and keep a close eye on her.
Unconsciously, the face that made him upset appeared in his mind again. He hadn't seen it for several days, but every scene with her was clearly engraved in his mind and could not be erased.
Pei Jingmo's expression eased a little, but after he realized what he was thinking, his face quickly darkened again. He smoked alone in the study for half the night.

In a courtyard in the backyard, Caidie looked at the pale and beautiful woman lying on the bed, her eyes flickering slightly.
"Miss Shen, the young master is back today. As his future wife, you should pay more attention to him. This way, you can marry into the Marshal's Mansion faster."
Hearing her words of encouragement, a blush appeared on Shen Yin's face, dispelling her original sickness.
But she thought about that incident again, and she couldn't help feeling a little uneasy.
"Cai Die, do you think the young marshal knows something?"
When Shen Yin thought about her despicable thoughts being known by such an outstanding man, she couldn't help but feel regretful. If she had known earlier, she should not have been so impulsive.
Caidie's heart tightened, her face showed a bit of panic, and her voice was a little uncertain.
"No, don't scare yourself. What you need to do now is to find a way to get closer to the eldest young master. The eldest mistress likes you very much and she will continue to help you."
Shen Yin lowered her eyes, hiding the embarrassment and ridicule in them.
She knew what the eldest wife meant. She simply looked down on her because she was from the country and was afraid that she would be betrothed to her son.
Not only did she look down on him, but the entire Marshal's Mansion, even the servants, were only polite to her and looked down on her in secret.
At first, they were unfamiliar with the place, and Shen Yin came here with gritted teeth in order to fulfill her mother's last wish, and she didn't think that they could really fulfill the engagement.
In this chaotic world, she just wanted to find a shelter for herself. If her father hadn't died while blocking a bullet for the Marshal, she and her mother wouldn't have had such a hard time in the countryside.
So even though she had no choice but to come to the house, Shen Yin didn't feel that she was begging for money.
She didn't ask for marriage, she just wanted to survive in this chaotic world.
But when she actually met Pei Jingmo and learned that he was her nominal fiancé, Shen Yin couldn't help but have some delusions in her heart.
She still remembers the scene of that day, and her heart still beats faster unconsciously when she thinks about it.
The man was wearing a neat dark blue military uniform, with a tall and slender figure. He walked forward step by step in black combat boots, and each step was taken calmly and confidently.
Although his expression was extremely cold, it still couldn't hide that extremely handsome face. The aggressive eyes swept over her, which made Shen Yin afraid at the time, but she couldn't help but pay attention secretly.
Such a handsome man could actually be her fiancé, Shen Yin couldn't say no even though the word "rejection" was on the tip of her tongue.
As she expected, the man decisively rejected this outrageous marriage. Shen Yin couldn't tell how she felt. She felt relieved but also extremely disappointed.
Afterwards, perhaps because Caidie often mentioned that man in her ear and directly gave her the title of "fiancée", Shen Yin's deep-seated resentment gradually came to light.
Even though she knew that she was not worthy of him, she couldn't suppress the expectations in her heart.
What if? What if he accepts her?
So she mustered up all her courage and tried to approach him and care for him in her own way.
But the facts proved that Pei Jingmo was not only cold on the surface, his heart was even colder and more ruthless.
She lost her courage in the face of his repeated disregard and indifference, and could only hide her humble crush and hide in the yard, feeling sad.
When the people from the first wife's side hinted to her that she could have the final say with Pei Jingmo, she was afraid.
But the fruits of success undoubtedly made Shen Yin neurotically forget the consequences. She didn't ask Pei Jingmo to fall in love with her, as long as she could be with him legitimately, it would be good enough.
She accepted the eldest wife's temptation, but she didn't expect that as soon as she arrived at his door, she saw Pei Jingmo climbing over the wall and walking away without even looking at her.
Shen Yin ran back to the yard in a panic. Because she felt guilty and scared, she didn't leave the yard for several days.
She silently waited for the man's revenge. At the same time as she was afraid, she strangely felt a hint of anticipation in her heart. She actually thought that it would not be bad if he could remember her in this way?
Shen Yin sat quietly on the bed, ignoring the words in her ears urging her to get close to the young marshal, with her head down, not knowing what she was thinking.
Slowly, a bitter and sarcastic smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, as if she still overestimated herself.
In the man's mind, he was probably just that insignificant little grass on the side of the road. Not to mention revenge, even taking action would be a waste of time...
……
That's all for today, good night, babies.
