Chapter 194 - 156: The Woman Kept Outside_4
Golden, translucent rays of light fall upon the woman’s flawless white face, faintly revealing the delicate fuzz on her forehead and the pale blue veins on her eyelids.
Her cheeks are tinted with a soft blush, her body has considerably recovered, no longer emanating an unhealthy aura.
Tang Xi gives a self-deprecating smile in response, "Yeah, who else plays the mistress quite like I do...."
"In this line of work, if you don’t strive to be better, you’ll be replaced!" Nie Xiaoyun is truly panicked by Tang Xi’s nonchalance, briskly walking over to take the book from Tang Xi’s hands, "Since you’re relying on him, you should put in more effort. If you don’t, there’s no shortage of women around him. He can support any type of woman he wants; he is Fu Tingzhou, after all. Not to mention beautiful women, even those noble ladies from prestigious families are eagerly clinging to him...just take the Shu Family’s daughter, for instance. The Shu Family is the wealthiest, and even they yearn for the young Fu master....."
Seeing that Tang Xi remains silent, Nie Xiaoyun continues, "The young master recently took in another woman, arranging for her to stay in Qingfeng Garden, just in that building behind. He often comes to Qingfeng Garden, and it’s to see her."
Tang Xi seems to pause for a moment, just two seconds, before she regains her composure.
"Oh, is that so... Well then..." The woman’s voice is hoarse yet calm, like the ice that forms outside in the winter, pure yet devoid of emotion, "That’s good, I guess...."
In that instant, Tang Xi learns that he has kept other women outside.
