Chapter 212 -213: Hairstyles Signify the Wife

The next morning, Shao He unusually got up early, and Ah Mo blinked when he saw the person appearing outside the door.

“Doctor Shao?”

“Have your reactions been a bit slow lately? Shall I check on you?” Shao He asked with concern when he saw the slow-reacting person.

Ah Mo quickly waved his hand and shook his head to explain, “No, no, nothing is wrong at all, I am just a bit surprised that Doctor Shao got up so early.”

“Usually I do wake up later, but last night Xiao Linzhang was in your master’s room, I was worried he might not be comfortable, so I came early to check on the child.”

“What? The young master…” Ah Mo hastily covered his mouth mid-sentence.

Shao He hadn’t heard clearly and asked again, “What did you just say?”

“I meant to say, I didn’t expect the young master to be in the master’s room,” Ah Mo quickly tried to salvage the situation, his palms sweating nervously.

“Is your master up yet? Can I go in?” Shao He pointed to the tightly closed door behind him, asking tentatively.

“Come in.”

Before Ah Mo could respond, Pei Huaian’s voice came from inside the room.

Ah Mo sighed in relief, made a respectful gesture, and then stepped aside.

Shao He pushed open the door and entered, only to see Pei Huaian already dressed in a black brocade robe sitting at the desk, his hair flowing loosely.

His features were handsome, his facial structure delicately chiseled like jade, clear-cut yet exuding a gentle beauty.

Such a man could captivate many even without a smile! Moreover, his slightly upturned lips made him especially approachable.

“You’re up so early, why didn’t you sleep a bit more? Is the bed in the room not soft enough, or are you not used to it?”

“That…” Shao He stopped in his tracks, unsure of how to answer the question.

“Hmm?” Pei Huaian looked up at him, waiting for what he was going to say next.

“That… I…”

She glanced at the child playing on the bed and asked, “Neither, I was just worried that Xiao Linzhang would wake up and cry. Was he well-behaved last night? Did he disturb you?”

Pei Huaian chuckled softly, set down his pen, stood up, and leisurely walked over to tower above Shao He, “Xiao Linzhang was very obedient, he slept soundly throughout the night, though he did sit up occasionally.”

“But he would lie back down and fall asleep quickly again.”

Pei Huaian guessed it might be because of the previous incident, which made him hate Chu Yu even more.

Shao He looked up at him, her tone serious, “Let me tie your hair for you.”

“Tie my hair?” Pei Huaian’s deep and dark eyes stared straight at her, a smile curling at the corner of his mouth.

“Yes, you haven’t tied your hair yet, I might as well do it for you.”

As Shao He spoke, she pulled him to sit on a chair, about to pick up the comb, but then heard Pei Huaian say cheerfully, “Only my wife can do my hair, are you sure you want to tie it for me?”

It was only then that Shao He remembered the intricate customs of the era, and the comb in her hand suddenly felt hot.

She awkwardly put down the comb, standing in place stammering.

“In that case…”

“I’ll go check on Xiao Linzhang.” Shao He said, hurriedly walking toward the inner chamber.

Her cheeks slightly flushed, she took a deep breath and walked to the bedside to look at the child.

After calming herself down, she picked up Xiao Linzhang, walked out of the inner chamber, and said somewhat awkwardly to the person still sitting there, “Thank you for taking care of the child last night, I won’t disturb you any longer.”

The words were somewhat awkward, but Pei Huaian knew he could no longer persuade her to stay.

“Alright.”

Shao He carried the child and walked out, Pei Huaian unwilling to watch her leave, did not go out to see her off.

Before Shao He could reach the door, she saw three people approaching from a distance. It was too late to hide.

Pei Chengye had not expected to see Shao He here, especially seeing the child in her arms, he was even more surprised, gaping in awe.

“How come you and this child are here?”

She suddenly remembered the rumors from the past and immediately mocked, “Could it really be as the rumors say, that Pei Huaian seduced a minister’s wife?”

“Second Prince, please be cautious with your words, my husband has been dead for many years, and I have no relation whatsoever with Marquis Pingnan’s Mansion. If you do not believe me, you can check my household registration.” Shao He smartly brought up her registration.

While Pei Chengye was well aware of her identity, given the complication with the registration, he was helpless.

Shao He, seeing the person who remained silent, retorted, “I am a Doctor, and the Fifth Prince’s leg ailment had relapsed, I was merely here to examine his injury.”

“Oh? The first time I hear that examining an injury requires bringing a child along?”

Pei Chengye was more convinced that there must be some illicit dealings between Shao He and Pei Huaian; their relationship certainly wasn’t as simple as that of a doctor and patient.

Facing her questioning without any change in emotion, Shao He calmly stated, “The reason I brought the child is because I feared Chu Yu might harm him. After all, a madman, when crazed, is unpredictable.”

Her words were watertight, leaving no room for argument.

Pei Chengye’s expression was extremely ugly, having thought he could seize a means to attack Pei Huaian, only to have it defused effortlessly by this woman.

At that moment, Ah Mo rushed into the room, saying, “Master, the Second Prince and others have arrived, and they ran into Doctor Shao. They’ve started arguing in the front courtyard.”
