Chapter 462.1: The Cruelty of the Innocent?
“Ah Yuan, if you kill this little fox, I will be heartbroken, can you bear?” Jing Wan ‘tearfully’ said.
“Then, Wan Wan, for the sake of a little beast, letting this husband be heartbroken, can you bear?” Li Hong Yuan ‘calmly’ retorted.
“This is two completely separate matters alright?!” Clearly it’s you, who’s entirely made from vinegar, being petty.
“Naturally it’s not the same. After all, I’m your husband, and it? Heh…………” Li Hong Yuan softly chuckled.
Jing Wan strangely read from his expression heartbreak, seeming as if in front of him was just a bad woman that was able to have an animal placed before him, seeming as if he hated that he can’t have his entire heart ripped out for her, yet she didn’t know how to cherish…………….
Jing Wan carried a ‘sense of guilt’————-Li Hong Yuan, fine, you’re impressive, you win, I admit defeat!
Jing Wan reached out to pinch Li Hong Yuan’s cheek, “Fine, these little things, in the future, I’ll just look at, won’t pet, won’t touch, won’t hold, just petting you, hugging you, and kissing you, alright? How come you didn’t fall into a vinegar vat and drown to death, despicable!” Her eyes and brows curved into a smile.
Li Hong Yuan grasped Jing Wan’s hand, taking it down from his face, leaning closer, lowering his head, pressing his forehead against hers, “Wan Wan, you think this husband will just foolishly drink vinegar? Before drowning to death, certainly will first put to death the target that made me drink vinegar, and afterwards, drag you together with me to the grave. In life you are mine, and in death your soul is mine. Even if you’re several years younger than me, in this lifetime, don’t count on dying before me, understand?”
(T/N: That emphasis on ‘in this lifetime’ really has a much deeper meaning…..But the logic flow of that last sentence really….ahhh I get what the author is trying to convey but the structure doesn’t work, just don’t think about it too much. I’ve checked the original so many times but it’s literally what the author wrote.)
The warm breath spilled onto Jing Wan’s face. The living Enma, at this time, how was it not his symptoms acting up, but Jing Wan wasn’t scared in the slightest, reaching out to embrace her husband’s waist, slightly lifting her head, closing her eyes, able to clearly sense each other’s eyelashes, “Ah Yuan’s words, I will remember, so Ah Yuan better not forget either.”
“I will use the coming years to prove.” No matter how much was said with the mouth, it was all empty words.
And that ‘bothersome’ perfume fox got swiftly carried away by a perceptive servant.
Clearly it was coming to see the gifts, yet in the end, the two of them this intimately stuck together again. The servant girls expressed, this scene, they’ve seen plenty of times, believing this was the normal state between husband and wife. They worried that after they marry, they will live very undesirably. Sigh, master, can’t you slightly restrain yourself a little, and avoid a little…………
That’s why, Jing Wan completely didn’t realize how much dog food she and her man threw out, and how many single dogs they ‘abused’.
Of course, those that got force fed dog food didn’t all choke either. There were also those that learned by studying them, for instance the nearby An Yi that has fully switched into the head of the guards. Now, he can’t be called An Yi anymore. However, he had two ident.i.ties, one in the light, one in the dark. Right now, it was just using the name on the surface. Bodyguard Qian took note of his two masters’ interaction. Of course, he can’t continuously stare, else if found out by w.a.n.gye, afraid his eyes will get scooped out. Some things, taking a glance and roughly remembering inside was enough. Afterwards, he also glanced at his own soon-to-be wife, steady and capable, her temperament gentle, and even a beauty. No matter how one looked, one all felt one had greatly earned.
Ads by PubFuture As a shadow guard, developing feelings for a servant girl by w.a.n.gfei’s side, he was already prepared to watch the other party marry someone else, yet unexpectedly, things took a new turn, thoroughly switching to his public ident.i.ty, and not only not getting punished, his marriage even got set, practically like a dream. He ruthlessly pinched himself, ouch. Afterwards, the Head of the Jin Qinw.a.n.g Manor Guards that rarely smiled just started smiling like an idiot.
His soon-to-be wife has stayed by w.a.n.gfei’s side for quite some time, so certainly got deeply influenced. That’s why, he was already prepared to just have his wife for his whole life. Besides, anyone that has thoughts towards the servant girls by w.a.n.gfei’s side should all have this kind of awareness. Making the promise now, yet unable to achieve in the future, certainly will result in suffering. Based on w.a.n.gfei’s character, perhaps she won’t directly do anything, but even if she just treats coldly, w.a.n.gye definitely will just have them sorted out.
Carefully thinking about it, even if just staying by his wife’s side alone, it seemingly wasn’t anything bad either. Moreover, even w.a.n.gye was able to stay faithful, so why can’t they? The temptation w.a.n.gye faced was as big as an ocean compared to them.
Originally everyone was all the same, yet in the end, as the ‘boss’, An Yi was actually steadily on the path of having a wife and children. As the brothers, they certainly were ‘displeased’, and now, seeing him staring at his soon-to-be wife with a stupid look on his face, each and every one all seamlessly used their elbow, scabbard, as well as tree branch, pebble, and so on to take shots at his waist, who let you be smug.
Getting ‘attacked’, Bodyguard Qian also just turned around for a quick glance, not taking seriously, knowing what kind of mentality these brothers had. He was magnanimous after all, and moreover, if too big of a disturbance, disturbing master, afraid they will suffer the consequences.
In reality, for these people, although they were envious of An Yi, this kind of feeling actually wasn’t that strong, and won’t because of An Yi, this precedence, just think of ways to hook up with the people by w.a.n.gfei’s side. If they similarly have that kind of fate like An Yi, then naturally, it was the best, but if not, they won’t insist either. Their att.i.tude has always been very straight, knowing what they should do.
Suddenly, a rather miserable cat cry sounded in the direction of the courtyard gate, breaking this wonderful moment.
Li Hong Yuan’s face didn’t have any change, but the people nearby nevertheless sensed the chilliness clearly. Speaking of which, in the manor, who was this daring, doing this kind of thing?
Jing Wan held Li Hong Yuan’s hand, “Go for a look?”
“No need.” Li Hong Yuan didn’t move, but a moment later, Mu An already had the person brought in.
After seeing, Jing Wan helplessly smiled, “Yu Yao, just came over this early?”
“Older cousin, cousin-in-law…………….” The little girl’s expression was a bit uneasy from having done something wrong, especially when secretly lifting her eyes to peek at Li Hong Yuan. The matter just now most likely was her ‘handiwork’.
“What’s wrong Yu Yao?” Jing Wan smilingly asked.
“Cousin-in-law, that, just now, when coming in, I saw your cat. Clearly it was obediently sitting there, so I just reached out to go hold it, yet it didn’t want to be held. I acted on impulse, and accidentally grabbed its fur. It struggled too much, and in the end……………” Yu Yao slowly lifted the tuft of black fur in hand.
No wonder it cried out that miserably. Judging from this fur, Jing Wan was sure that it was that little cutie she saw coming in just now. Towards that little guy, she somewhat felt sorry for it, “It’s fine, believe that Yu Yao wasn’t deliberate, right?”
Yu Yao hurriedly nodded, “It really wasn’t on purpose.”
Jing Wan reached out and consolingly stroked her head. Turning her head, “Mu An, let someone have the courtyard gate guarded well, don’t let the little guys run out again. Additionally, inform the servants in the courtyard, later, after we leave, have all the animals cooped up. Today, there will be many guests in the manor, don’t let them run into.” Most importantly, there will certainly be quite a few small children. They like small animals, but not everyone knew how to cherish. Sometimes, children posses an innocent cruelty, and won’t feel that mistreating those animals is wrong. In reality, in the eyes of those high officials and n.o.bles, it was just a pet, really not worth anything.
Under her eyes, Jing Wan didn’t wish for this kind of thing to happen.
Some things can’t be reasoned, so one can only be on guard.
“Yes.” Mu An responded, quickly going to handle.
This place can already be considered a small-scale rare animal garden. Because Li Hong Yuan had gathered them for Jing Wan, there naturally can’t be any slip-up. As such, every little guy had at least one caretaker, and moreover, it was even a specialized staff.
When Li Hong Yuan and Jing Wan came over, they already got driven out, because their existence certainly will make w.a.n.gye who had brought his wife along unhappy. As such, the number of people in this rare animal garden definitely was far more than expected.
“w.a.n.gye, how about going to the front courtyard first, and I’ll take Yu Yao for a stroll?” Jing Wan said.
Li Hong Yuan glanced at Yu Yao. The good mood and good atmosphere already withered, could it be that he still needed to accompany a little girl? That’s why, he indeed didn’t have the need to continue staying, nodding his head and directly leaving.
Yu Yao stood by Jing Wan’s side, making a face at Li Hong Yuan’s backside, “Cousin-in-law, older cousin is always this mean looking. How I see it, only you’re able to put up with him. If switched with me, I wouldn’t bother with him.”
Jing Wan helplessly laughed. That older cousin of yours is only like that to outsiders. Towards your cousin-in-law, I, he’s very good. Moreover, your older cousin, at most, just has a bit of a cold face, where is he mean? Clearly that handsome of a man. Of course, these things, she could only think about inside.
