nHe picks her up causing Ying Yue to give a small cry surprised by Lie Fan’s action, when she looks up and sees Lie Fan’s eyes filled with desire her face begins to heat up knowing what Lie Fan will do next. Lie Fan brings her to the bed, and sounds of grunts and moans can be heard from the room, after some time they finally stop as they welcome a new day.

nLie Fan woke up feeling refreshed today, putting Ying Yue down gently from his chest onto the bed, Lie Fan stood up and did some stretching before taking a bath and putting on clean clothes.

nYing Yue was still sleeping, seeing the rosy cheek but exhausted face, Lie Fan was a bit embarrassed because of how he treated her last night. After kissing Ying Yue on the forehead, Lie Fan slips away and goes to Wannian room to check up on her.

nOn the way there, Lie Fan meets Snow who is playing in the garden. Snow has truly grown up and its size was like a Siberian husky from his previous life. Seeing Snow approaching him, Lie Fan kneeled and rubbed his head.

nSnow was happy from the rubs enjoying it happily, Lie Fan inwardly scolded himself about forgetting that he had snow. Snow knows Wannian scent and is very familiar with it, it can help him yesterday when searching for Wannian.

nAfter giving some more rubs, Lie Fan stands up and continues his way to Wannian’s room. Snow follows him and walks alongside him, Lie Fan gives it another pat thinking that Wannian should feel very happy seeing Snow.

nLie Fan reaches Wannian’s room, he tells Snow to wait for him outside and he enters the room. Lie Fan approached Wannian bed and saw a figure with her back to him, sleeping soundly with a blanket covering her body.

nAssuming that it was Diao Chan who accompanied Wannian, Lie Fan reached the bed and saw Wannian still sleeping hugging a doll that was made by Yu Yan on the other side of the bed. Lie Fan put his hand on Diao Chan’s head and kissed her on the top of her head, which made Diao Chan tremble.

nLie Fan strokes Diao Chan’s head, thinking that she is slowly waking up. He also helps her put on more blankets, the air is a bit cold today and he is afraid Diao Chan will be sick.

nLie Fan: “Chan’er you have woken up? Thank you for accompanying Wannian, tonight will be your turn to accompany me okay? Let Yue’er accompany Wannian today.”

nDiao Chan?: “Ah! U-um I-I’m sorry b-but I’m n-not Lady D-Diao Chan.”

nLie Fan after saying that heard the somewhat familiar sound but not Diao Chan’s voice. Surprised, Lie Fan took a step back and saw the figure turning her body. Seeing the face Lie Fan was surprised, he didn’t expect that it was Cai Wenji and not Diao Chan.

nCai Wenji’s face is dyed red, shy, and embarrassed to be treated in such a way by Lie Fan and to be misidentified as Diao Chan. Her heart also envied Diao Chan and Ying Yue, experiencing how gentle and kind Lie Fan was in treating his wives.

nCai Wenji: “I-I’m sorry Governor Lie Fan, at midnight Lady Diao Chan switch with me in guarding Wannian.”

nLie Fan: “No No it’s okay! *ahem* I also like to apologize for treating you like that, I didn’t mean to do that to you as I thought you were Diao Chan.”

nCai Wenji: “It’s okay Governor Lie Fan, it’s just that I envied Lady Ying Yue and Lady Diao Chan to have such a gentle and loving husband.”

nLie Fan was a bit shy and turned his head, doing some fake cough to hide his shyness. Cai Wenji was also shy, thinking of her bold words and feeling flustered the seeds that she tried to bury deep down began to sprout again.

nThe awkward moments between the two lasted for 3 minutes before being broken down by Wannian who began to wake up, Both Lie Fan and Cai Wenni saw and heard Wannian movements and sounds both turned their heads to Wannian.

nWannian who opened her eyes, saw Cai Wenji and Lie Fan who were looking at her. Seeing them, Wannian began to cry again making Lie Fan and Cai Wenji flustered. Cai Wenji hugged Wannian while patting her back, and saying some gentle words to her.

nLie Fan stopped his movement seeing Cai Wenji calming down Wannian, the sun shone bright entering the room, and Cai Wenji’s gentle face while calming down Wannian made him somewhat mesmerized.

nCai Wenji felt the somewhat hot gaze from Lie Fan, her face turned red again but continued focusing on Wannian. After some time Wannian finally calmed down, breaking free from Cai Wenji she opened her hands to Lie Fan asking for a hug.

nLie Fan of course approached her and hugged her, picking her up while trying to make her laugh. Cai Wenji was surprised by Lie Fan’s sweet and gentle movements, the calm-headed and sometimes stoic Xu Province leader also had this side that was shown only to his family.

nCai Wenji began to burn up again and dyed her face red, thinking what if Lie Fan also showed this side of his to her and treated her as a family also. While immersing in her world, suddenly she heard a door open and saw Lie Fan bring Wannian outside.

nSnow who is sitting down at the front of the door, saw Lie Fan and Wannian walking outside. It began to bark happily and circle Lie Fan and Wannian. Wannian began to smile and laugh happily, seeing Snow’s antics and shaking her body telling Lie Fan to put her down.

nLie Fan puts Wannian down, he sees Wannian and Snow begin to play happily together. Lie Fan began to heave a sigh of relief, at least Wannian could slowly forget about her incident with Snow on her side.

nWhile watching Wannian, Lie Fan isn’t aware that Cai Wenji is already standing by his side standing there alongside him watching Wannian.

nJia Xu who was approaching Wannian’s room after being informed by Oriole’s members that Lie Fan had woken up and gone to Wannian’s room saw this scene. Seeing this he was assured that raising Cai Wenji’s level of importance was the right choice.

nJia Xu approaches them and gives several coughs, Lie Fan who was watching Wannian breaks free from his trance and is surprised that Cai Wenji is standing at his side. ｂ𝚍𝚘𝚟ｌ.ｎｔ

nHis instincts which have been tempered in battle should have picked up Cai Wenji’s presence, while feeling confused he turned his head towards Jia Xu who was waiting for his response.

nLie Fan: “Jia Xu good morning, what brought you here so early? Is there something that needs my attention?”

nJia Xu: “Yes My Lord, the Fang Clan is refusing to hand over their properties. They even hired some mercenaries and put them on their properties, threatening to put up a fight even burning their properties.”

nLie Fan: “Humph! Looks like Fang Zhu is as stupid as his son, I have given him a way out to retain almost all of his wealth and can still work and receive wages. Also, there are mercenaries foolish enough to accept this task?”

nJia Xu: “While they are foolish My Lord, the rewards offered to them are very high which for these mercenaries is an offer that they can’t refuse.”

nLie Fan: “Why can’t these fools just accept their fate, what’s the reaction of the people we promised to receive the cake?”

nJia Xu: “Mi Zhu is handling them right now My Lord, they are meeting at the main hall at the Governor’s Castle.”

nLie Fan: “Fine let’s go there, Lady Cai Wenji, please take care of Wannian.”

nCai Wenji heard what Lie Fan said and promised to take care of Wannian. Lie Fan and Jia Xu alongside 4 of Lie Fan’s bodyguards head towards the Governor’s Castle. On the way there, they heard people talking about the Fang Clan.

nTalking about how the Fang Clan’s young master kidnapped Wannian and was beheaded because of doing so, and now employing mercenaries causing some unrest by protecting their properties with force and disturbing people who want to go on with their daily lives.

nArriving at the Governor’s castle, Lie Fan and Jia Xu entered the main hall and were greeted by the scene of Mi Zhu alongside Chen Gui and Xun You are receiving 10 people who are the representatives of the interest group.

nMi Zhu: “Everyone please be patient and wait for us to handle the Fang Clan, you will receive your slice of the cake so please be patient.”

nA: “Master Mi Zhu, it is not that we don’t trust you and Governor Lie Fan but Fang Clan is a local snake and they are a large merchant clan with connections all over Xu Province.”

nC: “That’s True, we are just afraid that we will not receive the slice that was promised to us because of what the Fang Clan is doing right now.”

nLie Fan: “Then what will all of you do hmm? Xu Province is my garden and no matter how big Fang Clan is, they are living in my yard. All of you just sit still and be patient, what I promised would be given to you!”

nThe hall turned silent when they heard Lie Fan’s voice, the young man in his twenties intimidated all of these people who were already in their forties or older.

nLie Fan sits in his seat, faces everyone, and looks at the faces of each one of the representatives. This group of people needed to be given an example, The Fang Clan is the right target for how they refused Lie Fan’s kindness.

nSo in front of all these people and his advisors, Lie Fan ordered that the Fang Clan be stripped of all of their wealth and properties. The older generations aged 20 and above are to be executed and the younger generations below 20 be put in captivity alongside the women of the Fang Clan.

nThey will become slaves and be part of the Labor forces under Lie Fan’s administration. The males aged between 16 and 20 will be put as part of construction workers and farmers, while the women also with the same age range will be tailors making clothes for the soldiers and washing dishes for the soldiers.

nLie Fan’s sets of orders surprised everyone, this time the Fang Clan is truly finished. Even if the younger generation of Fang Clan survives, they don’t have the chance to get revenge and be part of Lie Fan’s free labor force. This was also a warning to them, that this would happen to those who opposed or offended Lie Fan.
