Chapter 540: Not Saying

The couch was not wide or long, barely enough for one person. It would definitely cause discomfort.
But he did not want to sleep in a different bedroom from Qiao Xuan.
Qiao Xuan’s eyes widened. “There is no need…”
“It will do.” Shao Yunduan smiled. “In case Mom finds out about it. Also, no matter where you sleep, it is the same, isn’t it?”
Qiao Xuan was stuck with words.
True…
They all knew that she and Shao Yunduan were a married couple, and they could not spill the truth about their relation to anyone else.
Even if they were divorced, she would still be considered to have been through one marriage, after all.
So, there was no need to be too particular at this moment.
Hence, they could just share one room in case some accident happened. Most importantly, Shao Yunduan sounded so determined that she could not turn him down…
“But the couch… doesn’t seem very comfortable!”
Shao Yunduan agreed inwardly.
But he disagreed on the surface.
“That is fine. It is okay for me.”
“Oh, if you don’t feel comfortable, don’t stick around. Take the east wing room.”
Qiao Xuan had no words to say any further.
She had said whatever she was supposed to say, and that was all she could do…
Shao Yunduan laughed and said gently, “It is getting late, let’s settle dovvn.”
“What? Okay…”
It was a quiet night.
But when they got up the following morning, Shao Yunduan looked very tired from sleeping on the couch. He had dark circles around the eyes, and was massaging his shoulders.
Qiao Xuan felt a little guilty, and said involuntarily, “What about you take the east wing room. Or I can.”
“No need, really.” Shao Yunduan smiled brightly. “l can manage.”
Qiao Xuan was speechless. Okay then…
When they got up, the six maids were already up.
The six girls were cautious and timid, at a loss.
They had no idea what they should do. Seeing Ms. Fang and Yang Xiaoni working, they went up to offer some help. But they caused a mess.
Ms. Fang and Yang Xiaoni felt a little helpless as well.
If they were told to work, there wasn’t so much for them to do anyway. And Ms. Fang did not seem to feel that stone-hearted to give them so much work, seeing that they were afraid to be driven away at the first mistake.
But they were the maids, and they should work. Ms. Fang understood that maids should not be spoiled, after what they had experienced with Liu Yan.
Otherwise the spoiled maids would cause the family trouble.
They were different from Liu Yan. They were going to be kept at home for long.
Seeing Qiao Xuan and Shao Yunduan walk in, Ms. Fang and her daughters-in-law let out a big relief.
“Oh Ms. Qiao, what should these six girls do, please make some arrangements! ”
As long as they were not lingering in front of her, or they would just cause trouble.
Qiao Xuan and Shao Yunduan exchanged an amused look.
Qiao Xuan smiled. “It is my fault, sorry for having caused you trouble. All you girls, come here!”
The six maids also let out a sigh of relief, as if they had found the decision-maker. They answered and came to them.
Qiao Xuan glanced at them and felt very satisfied.
With First Madame around, the agent offered her exactly what she needed for the family. These six girls were all very reliable..
