Chapter 13 But She Doesn't Feel Guilty

"Someone, come and stop General He!" Ke Ji quickly stood up and walked towards He Pingzhi while shouting loudly.

The guards in the yard immediately surrounded He Pingzhi with long sticks in their hands.

Shen Junheng got up upon hearing the noise, and leaned against the door, watching He Pingzhi fight with the guards calmly.

"Miss, you'd better go back to your room. It's dangerous here." Liu Xiaodie hurriedly walked to her side and advised her.

"What are you afraid of? How dare He Pingzhi touch me?" Shen Junheng was calm and composed.

He Pingzhi had been in the military for many years and had become a general at such a young age, so he must have some strength. Shen Junheng knew that most of these guards were no match for He Pingzhi, but she still wanted to see the strength of the hero in the book.

Faced with the siege of more than 20 guards, He Pingzhi didn't even blink, and knocked them to the ground one by one with the back of his knife as if he was cutting melons and vegetables.

He was so relaxed, and his moves seemed extremely casual, but in the blink of an eye he broke through the encirclement and walked towards Shen Junheng. Shen Junheng didn't even blink and couldn't see his moves clearly.

As expected of the male lead, his fighting skills are indeed high. I wonder who is better between him and Xiao Lingyu.

Shen Junheng saw that Ke Ji also came up, but he fell to the ground without even being able to withstand a single move from He Pingzhi. He was so weak.

It's wrong to be too weak. Xiao Lingyu placed him here, so he couldn't be so weak. Shen Junheng was sure that he was hiding his strength.

Seeing He Pingzhi striding towards her with cold eyes and a murderous aura, Liu Xiaodie was frightened and trembled, retreating behind Shen Junheng.

"He Pingzhi, are you trying to turn against me?" Shen Junheng looked at He Pingzhi calmly.

He Pingzhi glanced at her, walked straight into the room and sat down at the table. He casually placed the long sword that gleamed with a cold light on the table, poured a glass of water and drank it all, and said calmly: "I just want to remind you that there is no place in my house that I cannot go."

"Your house?" Shen Junheng chuckled, perhaps guessing what was going on. After all, he had been quite tolerant a few days ago, living in the backyard and rarely coming to the front. Now that he would force his way in, it seemed that he and Xiao Linghe had completely reconciled.

"I have bought a new house, which is much bigger than this one. I will move there in three days." He Pingzhi could not hide the pride in his eyes.

He Pingzhi thought to himself, you embarrassed me so much before in order to get my attention. I deliberately left you alone for these days. It’s time for you to realize your mistake and beg me to look at you more.

Shen Junheng sneered: "With your salary, you still want to buy a big house? I'm afraid you are just pretending to be rich and have accumulated a lot of debts."

Shen Junheng guessed that this house was most likely given to him secretly by Xiao Lingyu, but she saw through it but didn't say it out loud so as to prevent Xiao Linghe from being wary of her.

He Pingzhi took a deep breath. If Xiao Linghe intended for him to win over her father, he would have wanted to slap her to death.

"Shen, no matter you are humble or arrogant, I will not like you. You'd better take back your tricks." He Pingzhi said coldly.

Shen Junheng said calmly, "I asked my father to ask the Emperor to grant us a marriage decree, forcing you to marry me. I was wrong. But my Shen family also made amends to you. It was because of my Shen family's full support that you had the opportunity to achieve outstanding military merits and become General Xuanwei. But you went to the military camp on the day of your wedding, making me the laughing stock of the entire capital. A year later, you used the military merits that my Shen family helped you gain to ask to marry my personal maid as your concubine. You had sex with her seven times a night, and I personally carried water for you six times. I no longer owe you anything. But do you still remember the kindness the Shen family has shown you?"

"Don't you owe me anything? Back then, your father brought me back to the Shen Mansion because he wanted to adopt me as his adopted son. But just because you said you wanted to marry me when you grew up, he sent me to the military camp. He said he wanted me to go there and earn some military merits so that I could have a foundation for my life. Humph! Do you know how I spent those ten years in the military camp?"

This was the real reason why He Pingzhi hated her. The corners of He Pingzhi's eyes were bloodshot as he spoke angrily, opening his shirt to reveal his strong muscles and a mixture of old and new scars of varying sizes.

Liu Xiaodie behind him took a look and quickly covered her eyes with her hands. Just one look made her blush and she couldn't help but worry, wondering if she would get corns.

Shen Junheng only took a glance and was shocked. He couldn't help but gasp. It was hard to imagine how much thrilling suffering he had experienced when he was just a ten-year-old child when he first arrived at the military camp.

But she doesn't feel guilty!

Not to mention that she didn't travel through time at that time and it had nothing to do with her, even if it was her, she wouldn't feel guilty.

Shen Junheng retorted coldly, "You were originally an orphan begging in Beijing. If my father hadn't taken you in, you wouldn't have survived until now. My father didn't adopt you as his son because of what I said, but before sending you to the border, my father asked you what you thought. It was you who patted your chest and said that you would go to the barracks to make many military achievements, and come back to marry me with your military achievements. Marching and fighting is like licking blood on the edge of a knife. You have had a hard time, but good or bad, it is your own life. I am not your father or mother, and I have never hurt you. No matter how miserable your life is, you can't blame me!"

He Pingzhi was very aggressive, but Shen Junheng was neither fierce nor aggressive, yet his momentum was not inferior to He Pingzhi's.

He Pingzhi didn't know why, but during the argument with Shen Junheng, his hatred for her, which had lasted for ten years, gradually faded. He even didn't understand what he cared about.

But the atmosphere has reached this point, so naturally the argument will continue.

He Pingzhi remained calm and said, "I was still young at the time, so how could my words count?"

Shen Junheng rolled his eyes at him: "Wasn't I younger than you at that time? My words count? Then why do you hate me?"

"Even though you're young, your father still dotes on you. If you hadn't had any inappropriate thoughts about me, I wouldn't have to go to the military camp!"

"You also said that he is my father. If he doesn't pamper me, how can he pamper you? My father didn't recognize you as his adopted son, and you still hate him? My Shen family doesn't owe you anything!"

Shen Junheng continued to mock, "Hurry up and put on some clothes, or you'll catch a cold and blame me."

"You are so sharp-tongued and shameless!" He Pingzhi said coldly while putting on his clothes with an indignant look on his face, "You refuse to admit it, so I won't bother with you. Do you think I will let you go if you say that? Do you think you can become my wife just because you force me to marry you with the imperial decree? Do you think I will look at you more if you kill the concubine I asked for in exchange for my military merits? We are both women, how could you have the heart to do such a cruel thing to her? Shen Junheng, you vicious woman! Give up, I will never touch you again in this life!"

Did she kill Zheng Caiyi? Did Xiao Linghe tell him that? No wonder he came to her yard so early in the morning to act crazy.

He didn't seem to care much about Zheng Caiyi when she was alive, but now that she is dead, he feels so sorry for her.

Why are you pretending to be so affectionate? Bah!

And Xiao Linghe is really insidious. Shen Junheng gave him the middle finger in his heart.

Thinking of Xiao Linghe's cruel methods against Zheng Caiyi, Shen Junheng couldn't help but shudder. She couldn't help but feel a little lucky. Fortunately, He Pingzhi hated her so much, and she distanced herself from He Pingzhi in time. Otherwise, she didn't know how Xiao Linghe would deal with her.

But after all, she is He Pingzhi's legal wife. What if Xiao Linghe also cares about this? It seems that she still has to be on guard against him.
