Exiled Princess: From the Palace Heist to Becoming a Rich Madame [MTL]

Chapter 86-90

Ruoruo was his legally wedded wife, and it was reasonable and expected that they shared the same bed.

However, as he waited and waited... Jiang Ru still hadn't come.

Xiao Chengjin couldn't hold back his impatience.

He listened to the sounds from the courtyard and gently pushed open the door.

"Cough!"

He coughed lightly, covering his mouth, then quietly leaped down from the roof.

"Master, what are your orders?"

"Where is the Madam?"

After clearing his throat, An Yi reported truthfully, "Madam left the study and went to her bedroom over there."

As he spoke, An Yi gestured towards Jiang Ru's room.

Xiao Chengjin, upon hearing this, stood still in disbelief.

Did Ruoruo want to live separately from him?

He certainly didn't want that!

Xiao Chengjin remained stunned for quite some time before finally regaining his composure. "You may leave!"

Sigh, the servants would surely have a good laugh at his expense.

"Yes, Master."

After An Yi left, Xiao Chengjin went straight to the study.

In the dim candlelight, Xiao Chengjin stared blankly at the divorce agreement in his hands.

Could it be that Ruoruo no longer wanted him?

But everything was fine before dinner last night!

His hands involuntarily clenched...

He really wanted to tear this divorce agreement to shreds, but... he didn't dare.

In the end, Xiao Chengjin silently unfolded the slightly crumpled piece of paper and placed it back under the inkstone.

After leaving the study, Xiao Chengjin glanced at Jiang Ru's room, feeling dispirited, and then returned to his bedroom.

Several bodyguards clearly sensed that Xiao Chengjin's mood was off.

They didn't dare to approach him to avoid drawing his attention and remained hidden, waiting for his orders.

Why did they have a feeling that their master had been abandoned?

Xiao Chengjin: Bah! A bunch of chatterboxes.

...

The next day.

Xiao Chengjin woke up before dawn.

At this time, the courtyard was quiet. After he finished freshening up, he went directly to the study and sat there for a while.

Ruoruo had said last night that he could "wake up" this morning.

Staring at the irritating divorce agreement, Xiao Chengjin's expression faltered...

He couldn't stay in this study any longer.

Woooo, he was about to be abandoned by Ruoruo.

After waking up early, Jiang Ru felt refreshed.

She was delighted, thinking, "A new day, time to get busy."

There were still many things to do today: part amicably with Xiao Chengjin, go to the town to deal with the deed to the house...

Xiao Chengjin stood by the window, watching the busy servants, and decided to give them a "surprise."
