Chapter 1204 - 278: Time to Repay_2
Jun Suxue glanced at her hand, hidden within her sleeve, likely clenched into a fist and gritting her teeth. She indifferently withdrew her gaze and invited her to have some tea, "Because the piece I need to paint is large and will take a long time, Ms. Wei, if you wait here, I’m afraid it might be four hours." By then, the Marquis would be back.
Wei Shu was quite observant and understood the feeling of being kept at a polite distance, "If it takes that long, I won’t wait the entire time. Once the General is free and the painting is done, have someone inform me, and I’ll come to pick it up."
Pei Qin glanced at her, "Su Xue, see the guest out."
Jun Suxue responded and went out to escort her.
Halfway there, her arranged servant girl came over, "Miss Su Xue! The bamboo shoot soup that the Marquis loves and the ingredients for Madam’s medicinal soup are all ready; you just have to prepare them, and the Marquis will be back soon."
"Okay." Jun Suxue replied and saw Wei Shu to the carriage.
Wei Shu did not ask further and directly bid farewell and left in the carriage.
Jun Suxue watched as the carriage departed, her eyes icy cold. This Wei Shu seemed much more tactful than Xie Yi. Yet her not asking didn’t mean she didn’t ponder. Given her awkward status, there was also an upside to it! Did Wei Shu dare to seek a divorce and then come here to seduce the Marquis because she thought the General couldn’t have children and that she could? What if the General no longer had to worry about heirs? Relying on some old affection she thought she had?
