My Husband Is An Undead

Xuanyuan Ying followed from behind. Hearing Gu Yunlan"s words, he smiled towards her and sat across the table from An Shufen. "Miss, you sit down too, Xin"er is coming!" Xin"er walked from a side door carrying plates, seeing An Jiaona coming in, she immediately said to Gu Zhengyu, "Marshal! Let Xin"er greet Miss An!"

"En, go ahead!" After Gu Zhengyu saw that his daughter has come around, his complexion had become a bit gentler.

Gu Yunlan sat next to Xuanyuan Ying, bowing her head, and looking at the dinner bowl in front of her, her thoughts were a mess.The north and south warlords are going to war, why is Papa bringing home an aunt?

Before, her thoughts were still unclear, but now, they were actually very clear. Papa couldn"t possibly have had an illegitimate daughter, Mother died early. Ever since she was young, Papa had brought her everywhere with him, she had never met another mistress before.

"Isn"t Yun"er going to greet this guest?" Xuanyuan Ying"s unhurried voice interrupted Gu Yunlan"s thoughts.

Gu Yunlan stared blankly, then snapped back to reality. Seeing a bowl of soup in front of her, she held the spoon and asked unhurriedly, "Can you eat?"

The words that slipped out caused Gu Yunlan to be frightened, how can she say such a thing? After all, can an undead eat?

"Of course this General can eat, you haven"t greeted me yet?!" Xuanyuan Ying glanced at her lazily.

"Sister! Why can"t a General eat? Isn"t Sister being too oppressive?" An Jiaona, who had been seated in front of Gu Yunlan by Xin"er, had an unforgiving expression on her face.

"I"m confused, Miss An. I didn"t seem to have said that. If you don"t believe me, why don"t you ask the General?" Gu Yunlan sneered, raising her eyebrow.

"We were only discussing whether or not this soup will taste good!" Xuanyuan Ying didn"t even look at An Jiaona as he explained coldly.

"Come on, General. This soup is nutritious, I even had the servants cook it for an entire afternoon!" Gu Yunlan looked cheerfully at An Jiaona"s enraged expression. Reaching out her arm, she scooped up a spoonful of soup from the soup dish and poured it into his bowl.

"Is that so?" Xuanyuan Ying glanced at her suspiciously malicious expression. He picked up his spoon obediently, drank a mouthful, then immediately complimented, "Pretty good!"

An Jiaona looked furiously at the two people, they actually dared to ignore her; just wait and see!

Seeing An Jiaona"s enraged expression, Xin"er became cheerful. She hurriedly picked up her chopsticks, and put a chopstick full of fish in her bowl, and introduced with a smile, "Miss An, this piece of fish is a specialty of ours, the flavor is wonderful. It"s the Marshal"s favourite dish! Our Miss has taken off all of the fish bones!"

"Nana!" An Shufen looked at her daughter with a frown, what is wrong with this girl?

"Is that so? Papa Marshal likes it?" An Jiaona snapped back to reality, picked up a chopstick full of fish, and ate it in one bite. She immediately spat it out, pointing furiously, "d.a.m.ned servent! Being so spicy, you actually dared to trick this lady! You"re looking for death!"

"You! You don"t have to curse at someone if you don"t like it! Our Marshal really does like eating it! Wu wu…" While speaking, Xin"er"s tears rolled down, her face full of grievance, "I"m not a servant, I"m not…"

"Nana!" An Shufen first blinked in surprise, then immediately shouted, "Still not apologizing?!"

"No need to apologize! If Miss An doesn"t like the food I cooked she doesn"t have to eat it! But why does she have to curse at Xin"er? Who told you Xin"er was a servant?" Gu Yunlan coldly said as she abruptly put down her chopsticks.

"Jiaona! You are in the wrong!" Gu Zhengyu wrinkled his brows and put down his chopsticks heavily, even eating a meal isn"t peaceful, "Xin"er has ceased being our Gu Family"s servant since five days ago!"

An Jiaona embarra.s.sedly withdrew her hand, she was a bit upset, even a bit angry. d.a.m.n! She would actually play tricks on her! Wretch!

"Xin"er! We"re leaving! If they"re not eating, then fine!" Gu Yunlan feigned anger as she walked to Xin"er"s side, immediately pulling her out from the dining hall.

"Yun"er!" An Shufen hurriedly called out.

"No need to call her, she is very stubborn. Let"s just end our dinner here!" Gu Zhengyu"s voice was a bit cold. He put down his chopsticks and said to Xuanyuan Ying, "General, apologies. My daughter has a stubborn temperament, let"s go chat in the study room!"

"Alright!" Xuanyuan Ying dipped his head, and gracefully stood up to leave.

"Wait a bit and I"ll have a servant lead you to the guest room!" Gu Zhengyu said coldly, then immediately left.

"Marshal!" An Shufen could only watch with wide eyes as he left.

"Miss!" Xin"er scurried behind Gu Yunlan, is Miss angry? But, she was being defensive for Miss! That girl is too good at pretending!

Gu Yunlan stopped walking and looked at her solemnly, "Xin"er! I don"t need you to stand up for me. She doesn"t dare to do anything when I offend her, but she would dare to deal with you. If you really are worried about me, don"t put yourself in any danger; do you know who that so-called little sister of mine is?

Gu Yunlan turned around and walked in the back garden"s direction. Xin"er hurried to catch up.

"She"s definitely Yangjin"s younger female cousin in the previous life, that greedy wolf…" Gu Yunlan said softly.

"But, she"s completely different to her?" Xin"er was speechless. She really can"t see it; one of them has a mild temper, the other is as shrewish as the one just now.

Walking to the room"s door, Gu Yunlan suddenly stopped her footsteps sharply, "In short, I wish for you to not endanger yourself by going against her head-on. Just me will be fine!"

"Miss!" Xin"er said softly as she almost b.u.mped into her, promptly halting her steps.

"That"s enough! Go to sleep! I don"t need you to guard me tonight!" Gu Yunlan pushed open the door and promptly walked in. She didn"t even look back as she spat out those words.

"Yes! Xin"er will remember it!" Xin"er, who saw that her Miss looked a little vexed, could only pause her steps, gently close the room"s door, and return to her room. Miss really is very angry, she is afraid that Xin"er will put herself in danger. But since it"s only death, she"s willing!

"Saying such things to the girl, aren"t you afraid of hurting her?" A man"s voice came from within the room.

Gu Yunlan immediately stepped inside. It was Xuanyuan Ying, sitting by the table in the middle of the room, he was lazily drinking tea.

"She won"t!" Gu Yunlan directly sat across from him. She poured herself a cup of water, minding her own business.

"You"re actually not afraid of me?" Xuanyuan Ying looked at her in astonishment, then stretched out his hand all of a sudden, saying, "But this senior bites!"

Gu Yunlan looked coldly at his hand. It slowly darkened from pure white, turning into a skeleton at the end. Her heart trembled as she asked, "Why is she different from the previous life?"

With a flick of his hand, Xuanyuan Ying"s hand turned back to normal. He withdrew his hand and caressed it softly, "That is her real appearance."

He suddenly leaned his pearly white teeth in, saying softly, "Those two mother and daughter really do have a relationship with your father."

Gu Yunlan was startled at first, then she paused in surprise. Is that true?  She blurted out a retort, "How can that be? Ever since I can remember, Father has never been out of my sight! How can he have another wife?"

"But she and your father are childhood friends…" Xuanyuan Ying straightened his posture.

"How do you know this so clearly?" Gu Yunlan looked doubtfully at him, could it be that it"s true?

“Don’t forget who I am, the night before your parents’ wedding night, she and your father slept together.” Xuanyuan Ying sneered. Human love really was laughable; they were clearly in love with one, yet slept with another….

"Then that An Jiaona should be my sister…" Her voice suddenly stopped. She had been a premature and difficult birth. Mother had pa.s.sed away while giving birth to her. Could it be that it was true?

She lifted her eyes and looked at him, his eyes held a look of ridicule. Everything is true, Father betrayed Mother before the wedding. She lowered her head silently.

"However, he truly did love you. In the previous life, he really did know that An Jiaona was his daughter, but thought it was just asking for trouble…" Xunyuan Ying explained and looked at her silently lowered head, he felt bitter after all was said.

A soon as he finished talking, Gu Yunlan suddenly threw herself on the table, crying bitterly.

Xuanyuan Ying paused in surprise and looked at her helplessly. Are all the females these days this frail?

The Gu Yunlan now is crying for real. The previous life"s grievances, the hesitation towards rebirth, this life"s hatred, and the devastation after learning the truth; she just wants to cry it all out.

In the previous life, she lived more than twenty simple years. After the rebirth, she’s always thinking that in this life, other than vengeance, she will protect the people who love her. However, now she thinks that the entire truth is unnecessary.

Father loves her? If he loves her, why would he bring someone back home? She would have never known! But she doesn"t hate him, the one she hates is that man and woman. They ruined her carefree previous life.

For a long while, Gu Yunlan stayed crying like that before she sat up with red eyes and asked him, "How can she change her appearance?"

Xuanyuan Ying froze in surprise and stared at her in bewilderment, should he not have told her that? Seeing her red-eyed solemn face, he hurriedly said, "There should be someone helping her, their bodies have the foul smell of a fox…"
