Chapter 714: Unwarranted crime After seeing Bai Zhi at the New Year’s Eve banquet, Dongfang Mu guessed that this guy would come to ask to understand this matter. He thought he would come yesterday, but he didn’t expect that he would be calm and dragged it until today. Since he was so calm, let him sink in misery for a few more days.
When the Empress Dowager’s condition got better, he will look for the emperor and sever their ties with him. It’s not too late to meet again after that. He has nothing to say to him for now.
The news that Pei Qinghan was waiting outside the mansion reached Dongfang Wan’s ears. At this time, she and Zhao Lan were making clothes together. They planned to make spring clothes for Bai Zhi.
When Dongfang Wan heard the maidservant’s report, she didn’t even lift her head. A little smile appeared on her lips, but her face was unusually cold: “Let him do what he wants. It has nothing to do with me.” Zhao Lan stopped the embroidering work in her hand, raised her head to look at Dongfang Wan, and asked in confusion: “In the end, you are husband and wife, don’t you really want to see him?” Dongfang Wan also stopped working but didn’t look up.
She stared at the plum blossoms on the plain silk and said in a low voice: “There is no such husband and wife relationship between us. He was disgusted with me, and I resent him. In more than 10 years, we didn’t talk to each other.So if we talk like husband and wife now, wouldn’t it be funny?” Zhao Lan nodded her head and didn’t say anything. Bai Zhi once said to her that people have different temperaments. Some people like to repay kindness with resentment.
Others like to repay kindness with kindness. Each individual was different. She doesn’t know what kind of person Dongfang Wan is.
But since she does this, she must have her reason. It’s not hard to understand, she will respect her choice. The two continued to do embroidery work as if nothing had happened and kept talking funny things and drinking fragrant tea.
Even with the support of his servant, Pei Qinghan couldn’t help but stand awkwardly in front of the gate. He watched the people come and go to give New Year’s greeting inside, but he was like a stone sculpture that was forgotten. “Master, it seems that Master Dongfang and Madam will not see you. You are not in good shape yet, so let’s go back!” Seeing that his master’s complexion getting worse and worse, the servant said in worry.
Pei Qinghan shook his head: “No, I have to wait here. Wan’er won’t be so cruel, she will definitely meet me.” Wan’er! Wan’er!
How long has he not called this name? No one knows how much he hated Dongfang Wan over the past 10 years. Just like no one knows how much he loves her up to the bones!
He brought Song Hexiang to the mansion to show their love. But seeing her uncomfortable appearance, he felt even more uncomfortable. Not only he tortured her in this way, but also tortured himself.Song Hexiang said that there was this kind of medicine that cannot be detected in the meal. It will not cause death, it will only make the body weak just like a disease. He knew Song Hexiang’s purpose was nothing more than to take the position of the main wife of Changyuan Houfu.
However, he agreed and has his own purpose. In this way, she couldn’t leave the mansion, and she wouldn’t have the strength to meet with her lover. He couldn’t hold her in a justifiable way, so he could only use this method to keep her.
Even if he couldn’t have her heart, at least, he could keep her body. 10 years later, he achieved his goal but found that her body was getting worse and worse, and maybe she will die soon. He also regretted it because she would leave him in the end. But more importantly, even if she left, she would die under the title of being his wife, and she would die in his mansion.
But who would have thought that there will be today? Only today did he know how absurd he was. The resentment he had always had, turned out to be an unwarranted crime.
And that he simply had fallen in the calculations of that bitch and ruined his lifelong marriage.
