Tyrannical Wang’s Beloved Wife
chapter-284-1

“The safest place for Wan Wan is forever by my side.” Practically without even thinking, Li Hong Yuan just stated this boldly.

Towards such conceited words of his, Luo Pei Song was left speechless.

This wasn’t conceitedness, but similarly because he cared too much, caring to the point where if not placed under his eyelid, he won’t be at ease, caring to the point where he didn’t want to have her given to anyone else to take care of. Can only say, it was still because the shadow in his heart brought about by his past life, letting Jing Wan leave and her never coming back again, was too great. He absolutely won’t allow something similar to happen again. Moreover, when he hadn’t obtained, he could still somewhat forcibly restrain himself, but now that he has obtained, it was just difficult to bear her leaving his line of sight for too long. This time period although didn’t didn’t have a specific definition, it was at most a few hours. Once it exceeded, his mood will just become worse, irritable, and perhaps even anxious and restless. It was practically that former obsessive curse upgrading. He knew that there was probably something wrong with him like this, but he never thought of controlling, and further didn’t think of changing.

Standing in the perspective of any Qi Yuan dynasty woman, probably all won’t feel their own husband caring about them too much, taking them wherever they went, was being restrictive, and won’t feel that them paying attention to other men, or saying a few words to them, and their husband getting angry was anything wrong. They would only feel exceptionally happy and satisfied.

Standing in Jing Wan’s perspective, Li Hong Yuan’s overly possessive desires didn’t make her feel uncomfortable, feeling that she was losing her sense of self. There were factors of the current societal background, as well as her own personal factors. After all, no matter how crazily the heart yearned for freedom, one still couldn’t do anything that rebelled against the established norm and wasn’t tolerated by others. Jing Wan inherently wasn’t able to go this far either, and besides, although Li Hong Yuan’s possessiveness was strong, he has never done anything terrifying like imprisoning her and such.

Jing Wan lightly smiled, “Great uncle, if wangye doesn’t bring me along, I most likely will never have the opportunity to come out and freely travel. According to my original intentions, I’m definitely willing to come out together with you, but you see, never mind grandmother, even grandfather won’t allow it. But wangye isn’t the same. Anyone else wanting to take me out to travel, including myself, certainly will all be obstructed, but only he alone won’t, and moreover, since we already anticipate the possibility of danger, wangye naturally will have everything all arranged thoroughly. Even if it’s encountering the worst scenario, at least don’t need to in that moment, still have attachement in the heart. I feel it’s quite good.”

“If going out for a trip, already able to encounter the worst case scenario, then this prince also don’t need to live anymore.” Li Hong Yuan was a bit discontent with Jing Wan’s words.

Jing Wan lightly rolled her eyes at him, “I’m talking about ‘if by chance, if by chance’.”

“There won’t be any ‘if’.”

“Hey, enough you.” Jing Wan helplessly said. Sometimes, she really felt this man was considerably childish.

Luo Pei Song really felt these two were too much, always stabbing him, this lonesome old man, making him at this old age somewhat want to find a delicate wife, hold it, he firmly waved his hand, “As long as you two are happy, do whatever you want. Wangye also doesn’t need to worry that much, when truly having the need, just inform me.”

“Since that’s the case, this prince won’t be modest with old teacher anymore.” Whether or not he verbally agreed was one thing, but when time comes, whether he utilized or not was another matter. Of course, there were no absolutes for all things.

Jiang Wan Li didn’t get told to leave by Luo Pei Song, so just quietly served the tea to the side, refined and elegant. He really was worthy of these two words, and very much matched with the person in Li Hong Yuan’s memories. Just, this person, once he started handling things, it was also swift and decisive like thunder and wind.

The amount of ‘acquaintances’ were increasing more and more, from the initial you know about the other person’s inside information, yet the other person doesn’t know anything about you, Li Hong Yuan carried a subtle sense of superiority inside, but gradually, it was also just that. No matter how much you knew, you still weren’t necessarily able to do a bit of something. The initial hardships, only they themselves would know. However, in his eyes, those actually didn’t count as anything at all. Everything that has been done was all just for today, and for the future. Looking at it presently, he was very satisfied.

While this side was harmonious and warm, idly chatting about trivial matters, on the other side, Su Ting finally returned to the Inspector General Manor with great difficulty, yet got blocked outside the door, getting troubled in various ways. Even if clearly stating her identity, she was still unable enter the family gates. The old servant woman guarding the gates boldly said, their family’s miss was still at home, and their family’s miss was this and that noble and dignified, so how could she be dressed like this. Moreover, in and out of the home, when wasn’t she ordering around the servants, getting served left and right. Don’t think that just because she had the same face as their family’s miss, she can just come here to defraud.

Su Ting just felt her ankles unbearably aching. Without needing to look, just through the sensation, she already knew, it was certainly both red and swollen. She has been pampered and spoiled since childhood, only occasionally getting sorted out by her di sister. But, the age difference between them was considerably big after all. Prior to her di sister marrying, she was still small, so her di sister often times would only be verbally harsh with her. Afterwards, she got married, so the times they met were short, and the frequency even fewer. As such, the slightest pain on her body was all able to make her feel extremely unbearable, and at this time, getting blocked, truly was feeling unbearably wronged. In the end, she put out word that unless she immediately just dies, otherwise once she enters this gate, she definitely won’t let off this lowly servant.

That old servant woman guarding the gate finally started getting scared, momentarily wavering.

“Su—–Ting, you really are impressive, who won’t you let off? This was arranged by me, what, won’t let me off altogether as well?”

Someone who would specially emphasize that she got her name changed by someone was also just that one. Su Ting remained silent. Actually she didn’t want to use her current appearance to go face this di sister, but people often don’t do as others wish.

Su Ting’s di older sister neither slowly nor quickly went forward, singlehandedly grabbing her and forcing her to turn around. Seeing her sorry appearance, she hooked her lips into a smile, “Yo, didn’t our Kaiming Fu’s number one beauty went to go look for Jin Qinwang? Judging by this look, didn’t succeed? However, thinking about, unless Jin Qinwang’s eyes were broken, otherwise why would he take fancy to this current appearance of yours?”

Su Ting seemingly in this moment came to realization, “It was you, it was you that forced me to dress like this?”

“Still not considered stupid. That’s right, it was all arranged by me. While clearly knowing that if you succeed, it’ll be detrimental to me, naturally I need to do a bit of something. Sitting and waiting for death isn’t my style. However, I feel, even if I didn’t do anything, you probably won’t succeed either, right? How does it feel to nearly get thrown off the Immortal Gazing Lookout?”

So, not only did she scheme against her, she even sent people to follow her? Towards this di older sister, Su Ting has always very much hated, and now, it was further bitterly detesting. This was her last chance, yet it was ruined just like this. She hated so much, so much…………….

Su Ting’s di older sister has never seen this kind of ‘hating that she can’t drink her blood, and eat her flesh’ glare of hers before. In the past, although there were similar looks before, it was never this intense. She subconsciously retreated a step, and after realizing what she’d done, her complexion paled, “Go on and hate, I rather want to see, what other mischief you can still cause.” Brushing her sleeves, she entered the gates a step ahead of her.

This time, there won’t be anyone blocking her anymore. Su Ting hobbled inside. The servant girl that served her was anxiously watching from a hidden place. Seeing the person, she hurriedly went forward, “Miss………..”

Su Ting didn’t say anything, just letting the servant girl support her back.

It’s not that she’s never thought of escaping from this home, but she knew, she definitely won’t succeed. As long as she has the slightest movement, she will be caught, the consequences……………

Su Ting discovered that her yiniang was waiting for her. Already a first class beauty to begin with, so even if almost forty, she was still beautiful and alluring. On her face, there weren’t many marks left behind by time.

Seeing Su Ting, her brows didn’t even move once. Just, after discovering that she’d injured her foot, she let someone fetch the medicine.

When the servant girl was applying the medicine for Su Ting, she just stood next to her, “My original intentions in telling you was wanting to let you be mentally prepared, yet never thought that you would produce other thoughts. However, if one doesn’t let you go do something, you probably won’t give up. If you were to succeed, your father won’t say anything either, but he still further fancies the person he originally chose. You should also be able to sense this yourself. The reasonings within are unclear, but there is one thing you should know, you can’t expect your father to have any father-daughter feelings, don’t count on him having any sympathy. He won’t be benevolent nor take pity. Things are already like so, you only have two options, either die, or act according to your father’s arrangements.

Dying requires guts and courage. If you have it, then just be clear-cut and firm, don’t do some ‘attempting suicide, tired of living’ act. There won’t be any outcome, and the one to suffer will still be you yourself.

If you don’t want to die, then just properly contemplate, when arriving at that person’s place, you may not necessarily just end up the same as the others either. For all things, one must take action in order to know the outcome. Blindly facing with a negative attitude, not doing anything at all, naturally won’t have any outcome. After all, that kind of man, you can’t count on him to just fancy your face, and if you give him attitude, he will still docilely and obediently serve you. You should put forward the same attitude as when facing Jin Qinwang. Men’s outer appearance is further not worthy of pursuing. As long as it’s not unbearable to look at, barely enough to put up with, then that is enough. My words end here, you best shape up.” She lightly brushed her sleeve and left.

T/N: Ironically, as terrible as it is, her father letting her fake her death and be given away as a plaything is perhaps her actual only chance at possibly surviving. Given the crimes her father has committed, where it’s serious to the point that he’s considered assassinating a prince, when it’s eventually exposed, which is only matter of sooner or later, it’s mostly likely an offense punishable by execution of the whole family, and if he does go through with trying to assassinate LHY, that’s an execution of the whole family up to the ninth relation, meaning all relatives and in-law families will get executed for his crimes as well, and that’s really just guilty by association. At this point, it’s just having shit luck for being born into this family, or even having any relations with Inspector General Su.
