Marry a Duke

Chapter 222 Someone on the Roof

Fu Ran then made at least thirty excuses, all of which were rejected by Wei Xuan.

Fu Ran simply didn't want to make excuses anymore.

"I don't want to go back, and I won't go back. That place is against me." She had just been out and had spent two days enjoying herself. How could she be so stupid as to run back?

"I risked my life just to escape. Now you want to take me back, but I have to die." She looked at Wei Xuan calmly.

He can be cold, and so can she.

She was also very calm.

"You can still do what you want to do here and what you want to do when you return to Beijing. No one will stop you." Wei Xuan had suffered from the gossip behind his back once, and he would never allow anyone to continue to talk behind his back.

Fu Ran is his wife and Wu You is his daughter, so they should stay by his side.

His father and brothers left his life one by one.

Fu Ran and Wu You are his closest relatives, and he will never allow them to leave.

"Master, the little lady is here." Bi'an came over carrying Wuyou. Dong Niang followed behind Bi'an with a look of horror on her face. She didn't dare to grab her. Firstly, she couldn't do it, and secondly, she was afraid that Wuyou would be frightened.

Alin and Cheng Jiang knew the strength of Gaomian and Bian.

The two of them are no match for each other.

Even if they managed to fight, they could only protect themselves, but not Fu Ran and Wu You.

The Duke of Wei is still here, and no one can escape if he takes action.

"Who told you to hold my daughter?" Fu Ran stepped forward, hugged Wuyou back into his arms, and glared at Bian.

She doesn't like Bi'an, just as Bi'an doesn't like her.

"Be good, don't be afraid." She patted her daughter's back to comfort her.

Wuyou was very brave and was not afraid.

Instead, he looked around with eyes wide open.

After being separated from Wei Xuan for three months, Wuyou no longer recognized Wei Xuan. After all, three months ago, she was still such a small baby, and now she has just begun to recognize people.

She stared with her big eyes, looking at this and then that, and after a while, she buried her little face in Fu Ran's neck.

Wei Xuan only has one daughter, Wuyou.

He would never let Wuyou leave him.

Rather than saying that he went to so much trouble to find Fu Ran, it would be more accurate to say that he was looking for his daughter.

Fu Ran underestimated a man's determination to retain his bloodline.

"Wuyou, I am your father. Come, let daddy hug you." Wei Xuan stepped forward and stretched out his hand to Wuyou. Fu Ran looked at him warily and refused to let Wuyou fall into his arms.

Wuyou could feel her mother's mood, so she didn't look at Wei Xuan again, but leaned obediently in Fu Ran's arms.

Wei Xuan looked down at the mother and daughter.

"Rest for one night today and leave for Beijing tomorrow."

He said.

Fu Ran refused immediately.

"I don't want it. I won't go back to Beijing."

Wei Xuan narrowed his eyes dangerously.

"Fu Ran, I have come all the way from the capital to find you. There are so many things in the court waiting for me to deal with. During the few days I was away, the princess would set many traps for me to fall into. If you are dissatisfied, you can speak directly. Don't act like a spoiled child anymore."

She's not being sullen.

But Fu Ran discovered that if Wei Xuan wanted to take her back by force.

She didn't seem to have any room for resistance.

"Why did you come here? You don't have to come here, Wei Xuan, go back. If you can't bear to leave Wuyou, I will bring Wuyou back to the capital in two years to show you."

She was looking for a compromise.

There was no way Wei Xuan would agree.

"My daughter, why do I only see her once every two years?" There was even more danger in Wei Xuan's eyes. People who knew him well should know that. Listen to him, everyone listens to him -

Even Gaomian, who usually had no expression, changed his expression.

"Madam, the Duke has been concerned about you and Miss Wuyou all the way. The old lady is also thinking about the young lady all the time. Please go back with the master." Gao Mian said.

Fu Ran didn't expect Gao Mian to plead for him.

He has always been a shadowy presence.

Even if it's not in the dark, it's the same in the light.

He doesn't like to talk and is so quiet that people almost don't notice his presence.

"I suffered so much there and almost lost my life, so why should I go back? Wei Xuan, you can go back and marry a new wife and have a son, who can inherit the title of Duke of Wei. No matter where Wuyou is, she is still your daughter, and this will never change. I promise that I will never marry another woman in this life."

She was also worried that he was afraid that she would marry someone else and give Wuyou a stepfather.

She could swear to dispel his doubts completely.

"Impossible." Wei Xuan refused directly, "After you go back, you will be the real wife of the Duke of Wei. Mother will put the power of the family in your hands and let you do what you want."

This was already a step back for him.

But Fu Ran didn't want to be the head of the family at all.

"I don't--."

Wei Xuan glanced at her with cold eyes, walked forward, pulled her hand away, and held Wuyou in his arms. When Wuyou looked at him, his expression had softened and his brows were smiling.

"Wuyou has grown up a lot. In these three months, Daddy has not seen Wuyou's growth."

He glanced coldly at Fu Ran.

Fu Ran shuddered.

There was a sharp sword in his eyes, hurting people with pain.

Wuyou seemed to have a good impression of him and was not afraid of him. This was the magic of blood relationship.

She waved her little hand.

Yelling.

Very cheerful.

Wei Xuan's eyebrows became softer, and when he looked at Fu Ran, there was less coldness in his eyes.

That night, Wei Xuanxiang stayed in Fu Ran's house, and Dong Niang was squeezed in to sleep with Qiao'er.

Wei Xuan stayed in her room.

There are two beds in the room.

Fu Ran insisted that he sleep in one bed while she and Wuyou sleep in another.

But that night, she couldn't sleep.

She had finally escaped, and the journey was quite difficult, but she had only lived freely for two months. How could she be willing to accept this?

Once I returned to Beijing, everything was different.

Wuyou is still young and doesn’t worry about anything. The little guy sleeps very soundly.

Wei Xuan lay on the bed for a while, and while Fu Ran was thinking, others were already standing in front of their bed.

Fu Ran was almost scared to death by his sudden appearance.

"You, what are you doing?" she gasped.

The heartbeat speeds up.

"Look at Wuyou." Wei Xuan was indeed looking at Wuyou, his face had a gentle expression mixed with many emotions. At that moment, Fu Ran's heart was filled with anxiety.

There is no denying that Wei Xuan loves Wuyou.

His only daughter, his only blood.

If she took Wuyou away like this, he would definitely get Wuyou back at any cost, but if he asked her to let Wuyou go and find her own freedom.

As soon as the thought came to his mind, Fu Ran shook it off.

Wuyou is her baby, and she will never let him go.

This would result in a dead end.

Suddenly, Wei Xuan picked up Wuyou and held her waist with one hand.

Fu Ran only felt the world spinning and then he stood up.

The lights in the house went out.

"Wei Xuan, what's going on?" she asked, suppressing the urge to scream.

"Be quiet, there's someone on the roof."
