Xie Yiyi thus entered the Su residence. Like Cui Yumian, she would also be a concubine.
“Go and tell them to decorate the mansion with more festive decorations and then decorate the bridal chamber. Make some delicious food for dinner so that everyone can enjoy themselves together.”
Su Wen said to Ning Shuang.
“Yes.” Ning Shuang nodded in return.
“Right, keep an eye on this woman.”
Su Wen instructed again.
He did not say what he wanted to keep watch for Xie Yiyi, nor did Ning Shuang ask.
After that, Su Wen left the mansion and headed straight for the Patrol Office.
Inside the Su Residence, Cui Yumian met Xie Yiyi for the first time.
At that moment, Xie Yiyi had already removed her veil. In terms of looks, the two of them were exquisite beauties. It could be said that they were evenly matched in this aspect.
However, Xie Yiyi’s aura was even more alluring.
Xie Yiyi was actually somewhat nervous.
Although she came from the Demonic Sects and she had killed people before, she was in the end still a virgin. Now that she was suddenly married to Su Wen, it was impossible for her to not be nervous.
Cui Yumian did not know what she was thinking. What Su Wen had explained to her about Xie Yiyi was the same excuse Xie Yiyi had used to tell the outsiders.
However, she could tell that Xie Yiyi was nervous. Cui Yumian held Xie Yiyi’s hand and said with a smile, “Sister Yiyi, don’t be afraid. Once you enter the house, we will be a family. Both of us have a tough life. However, my husband is amiable and usually treats others well. You will know in the future.”
Xie Yiyi: “???”
Be amiable? Treats others well?
Were they talking about the same Su Wen?
Xie Yiyi found it hard to agree with Cui Yumian when she thought of Su Wen’s despotic behavior outside.
On the other side, Su Wen arrived at the Patrol Office to see Yan Luoying buried in work as usual.
Su Wen entered the meeting room while Yan Luoying was still handling the documents.
When she saw Su Wen enter, a trace of joy flashed across her eyes before it was replaced with a forlorn look.
She already heard the news that Su Wen had been transferred away.
The Ministry of Appointments had also issued her a document earlier.
Su Wen stared at Yan Luoying and asked in a deep voice, “Why didn’t you keep your promise?”
The corners of Yan Luoying’s mouth curled up. “What do you mean?”
Seeing that she was acting dumb, Su Wen became even angrier. “When we formed an alliance, we agreed that I would be in charge of being a playboy, so you could obtain a chance to break off the engagement with His Majesty! Why did you refuse then, when His Majesty asked you to break off the engagement?”
Su Wen did not understand what this woman was doing!
We agreed that you don’t want to marry and I don’t want to marry. Why did you reject the annulment at the last moment? And even threatened to kill yourself?
Yan Luoying spoke flippantly. “Yes. I said that I would cancel the engagement with His Majesty, but when His Majesty asked me to do so yesterday, I didn’t want to agree, so I didn’t agree!”
“Why didn’t you want to agree then?”
‘Why… Because I like you…’ Yan Luoying thought to herself.
However, the words she thought did not come out from her mouth. Instead, she looked at Su Wen with a smile and said, “Because I don’t want that little girl Wu Muyu to succeed. Doesn’t she like to provoke me? I want to make her suffer!”
Su Wen’s jaw dropped. A moment later, he sat down beside Yan Luoying and patiently persuaded her. “Come, come, come. Big Sister, listen to me. We’re all adults. We can’t be rash. If we act rashly, we’ll only harm ourselves and others. We won’t have a good ending.
Why lower ourselves to the level of a little girl like her? His Majesty finally relented. Let’s quickly give up and annul the betrothal first. As for any personal grudges, can’t we talk about it later? Listen to me, let’s go find His Majesty now and cancel the engagement first. After that, I’ll help you lure her out and let you beat her up to vent your anger.”
Yan Luoying glanced sideways at Su Wen and pouted. “Who are you trying to fool? When the engagement has been annulled, are you still going to keep your promise?”
Su Wen pointed to the sky and swore. “I swear, if I don’t keep my promise, my father will be reported for stealing… My brother will be beaten up every day… My second brother won’t be back in the capital for three years… I… I will definitely get into a car accident if I drive the sports car.”
He thought to himself, ‘If my father is reported, he won’t fall from his position. The eldest won’t die from a beating. Second bro most likely will not want to return. At most, I won’t drive a sports car anymore.”
Unfortunately, Yan Luoying did not intend to agree at all. She just smiled and said, “That’s enough. Your oath is too vicious. I can’t let you have the chance to break it. Otherwise, wouldn’t I be a sinner?”
Peng!
Su Wen slammed the table and stood up angrily. “Yan Luoying! Are you going back on your words?”
Yan Luoying was not angry. She smiled and said, “Sincerely compensate the table one tael for injuring it!”
Their eyes met and Su Wen said with grief and indignation, “You woman… Are you craving my body? Let me tell you, I’m only 18 years old now and my back and knees are already sore. I have insomnia, cold sweat, and my head is ringing.
I’m not afraid to tell you the truth. Sometimes, I feel that I’m already so weak, I don’t think I can live past 28 years old. Have you thought it through? When the time comes, you might become a widow! For all we know, you might even become a widow as soon as you enter my residence!”
“I’m willing to be a widow… Young Master Su, when you take a concubine, don’t forget to treat me to drinks. After all, we’ll be sisters in the future!” Yan Luoying suddenly realized that after she changed her mind, she was the one who held the initiative.
“I’ll drink your sister! This is a sin!” Su Wen turned around and left. He felt that this woman must have received some sort of stimulation to behave as such.
He muttered, “This woman is crazy. This can’t do, I have to figure this out on my own.”
After Su Wen left, Old Zhou walked out from the side. Since the blood of the patrolling guards had been drastically changed, Yan Luoying recruited him to the Patrol Office to take up the position of Deputy Guard Commander.
This way, she would have a direct point of contact.
Of course, with Old Zhou’s capability, there was no problem for him to take up this position.
He said with a smile, “Miss, this boy is a scoundrel and a playboy. Seeing his unwilling stance just now, why must you marry him? There are many young noble sons in the capital.”
Yan Luoying shook her head slightly and said, “Uncle Zhou, although this person looks like a scoundrel, he is extremely reliable when it comes to handling matters. You see, ever since we’ve entered the capital, he has been embroiled in a lot of trouble, but the ones who suffer are always others. Moreover, many people have neglected that he is also a Bronze Saber Deacon in the Martial Inspectorate! An 18-year-old upper grade Star Rank, he is a top genius no matter which country he’s placed in! If he is really just a playboy, where did his cultivation come from?”
“The most important thing is… I like these kinds of smart people! I don’t like those boorish people like Wu Lie! My husband, in terms of resourcefulness, adaptability, and cultivation are all above me. From the looks of it, Su Wen isn’t any weaker than me. Isn’t that good?”
At this point, a trace of a smile flashed across Yan Luoying’s eyes. “Besides, if I don’t give in, the position of the main wife will definitely be mine. It’s impossible between that little girl Wu Muyu and him to have anything happen! Wu Kunhu won’t let her be a concubine! Doesn’t that little girl like to be eccentric? I want to see if she feels uncomfortable!”
‘Vengeful, this girl is truly vengeful.’
Old Zhou couldn’t help but complain in his heart.
However, he was still able to differentiate what he thought and what he should be saying. Old Zhou only smiled and said in response, “Miss, I’m afraid Miss Wu will really feel uncomfortable if you do this.”
