Chapter 359 What kind of words are you talking about!?

Xie Zhiwen was panting, his body swaying, looking at the woman who had been gentle to him, but now stood next to Mu Huaian, holding her arm.

The two of them stood together, as if they were the outsider.

At this moment, he felt like a complete joke.

Xie Zhiwen's red eyes sparkled with tears. He wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and asked, "Whose child is it?"

Just as Yu Qinghuan was about to speak, Mu Huaian spoke first, "Mine."

The answer was expected, yet unexpected. Xie Zhiwen looked at the two of them with eyes filled with not only pain but also resentment.

It was as if he had asked the last question and had completely given up hope.

He smiled bitterly, "I should have thought of it earlier..."

When I returned to Beijing at that time, I brought Mu Huaian back to the Marquis' Mansion many times. Now thinking about it, I was really stupid. I was so stupid that I had clearly seen Mu Huaian's feelings for Ah Huan when I was in Jiuchong Mountain, but I still thought that Mu Huaian would care about the friendship between him and me.

I was so stupid that I thought I could reconcile with her by practicing the piano to please her.

Little did she know that Mu Huaian already existed by her side, and even if she practiced for another ten years, she would not be able to catch up.

"No wonder you never looked me in the eye after returning to Beijing. No wonder you got so anxious when Yu Zhilan said something bad about him... No wonder..."

"Great! That's great of you guys..."

Xie Zhiwen muttered to himself, but before he could finish his words, he suddenly started coughing violently. As he coughed, his blood surged and he actually vomited a mouthful of blood!

His eyes went dark and he fell backwards.

The servant beside him was so frightened that he dared not move.

Mu Huaian moved even faster and rushed forward to support him. Yu Qinghuan also hurried forward. Neither of them had expected that this incident would cause such a great shock to Xie Zhiwen.

There were many people watching the fun around, and the discussions continued until everyone got on the carriage and left.

In the carriage, Mu Huaian sniffed Xie Zhiwen's breath and said to Yu Qinghuan, "When we get to Ningyuan Marquis' Mansion, I'll take Jinyan inside, and you can just go back home."

Yu Qinghuan sighed, "I'm afraid not."

Mu Huaian looked at her puzzledly: "?"

Yu Qinghuan silently raised the hand that was tightly grasped by the unconscious Xie Zhiwen. Her wrist was red, but she was unable to break free.

Xie Zhiwen, who was in a coma, was still murmuring "Ah Huan".

Mu Huaian: "..."

At this moment, Mu Huaian even suspected that Xie Zhiwen was pretending, otherwise he would have fainted. How could he catch him so accurately and not let go?

...

When the carriage arrived at the gate of Ningyuan Hou's mansion, the servants worked together to carry Xie Zhiwen into the mansion.

Because her hand was held tightly, Yu Qinghuan could only follow in. Mu Huaian naturally couldn't leave Yu Qinghuan alone.

When the butler saw his master being carried back, he was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan, but when he saw Yu Qinghuan, he was stunned for a long time.

"Madam, you're back?"

Yu Qinghuan was extremely embarrassed. "I've already left the Marquis' Mansion. You should just call me Madam Yu."

She hadn't been called like that for a long time, and when she heard it suddenly, she felt a little strange.

The housekeeper did not respond, but ordered someone to carry the marquis back to the backyard, and called for a doctor. However, his eyes were secretly looking at Mu Huaian, wondering why the young master came back with the marquis when he had obviously gone to the palace gate to wait for the eldest lady.

He even stayed by the eldest lady's side...

Even though the two of them did not have any close contact, the housekeeper could still see that they were standing too close to each other, with their arms touching.

Xie Zhiwen was just sent into the house when Xie Zhili, who was on leave at home, came in right after.

He came in a hurry, and when he entered the room, he saw Yu Qinghuan sitting beside the couch and Mu Huaian standing beside her.

"I heard that you two were arrested at the palace gate. Did you make my eldest brother so angry that he almost died?"

Yu Qinghuan's forehead twitched. "Where did you hear this? It's all nonsense."

Xie Zhili pushed Mu Huaian aside and saw Yu Qinghuan's hand being tightly grasped by Xie Zhiwen. He frowned and wondered if this guy was pretending to be unconscious.

Otherwise, why didn't they arrest Mu Huaian, but instead arrested Yu Qinghuan?

He frowned and reached out to pull their hands apart.

But Xie Zhiwen, who was in a coma, was still conscious. He felt someone pushing harder, so he followed suit. The pain was so severe that tears welled up in Yu Qinghuan's eyes. "It hurts!"

Xie Zhili snorted twice, "Why didn't you run away when I caught you? Do you still feel the pain now?"

Yu Qinghuan curled her lips, feeling aggrieved after hearing what he said.

Mu Huaian on the side pulled Xie Zhili's wrist away, "She's still menstruating and feeling unwell, don't talk about her like that."

Xie Zhili shook off Mu Huaian and rolled his eyes, "You are the only one who can pretend to be a good person."

He didn't know whether Mu Huaian was really generous or just pretending, but he was definitely not generous at all.

When Xie Zhiwen woke up, he immediately took Yu Qinghuan away.

Yu Qinghuan lowered her eyes to look at Xie Zhiwen, and saw that he had his eyes tightly closed and even frowned in his unconsciousness, so she sighed inwardly.

Didn’t you tell me not to marry you in the next life?

What are you doing now?

...

At the Cheng Mansion, when the spy brought the news, Cheng Gongjin was looking through the memorials sent by his subordinates.

I had been on leave to rest at home because I was not feeling well. Now that I have recovered, it is time to deal with the official duties that had been put on hold.

Spy: "Master, the young master just picked up Madam Yu when he ran into Ning Yuanhou at the palace gate. The two of them had a fight, and Ning Yuanhou fainted in the street. The young master and Madam Yu sent Ning Yuanhou back to the marquis' mansion."

Xiaoying, who was standing by, felt that the scene must be exciting just by listening.

Cheng Gongjin's reaction was indifferent. He replied calmly, "Is he still in the Marquis' Mansion?"

Spy: "Yes."

Daying volunteered, "Master, do you want me to go and bring Madam Yu back?"

Cheng Gongjin: "No need."

Da Ying was puzzled. Isn’t the master afraid that Madam Yu and Marquis Xie will be involved again?

Xiaoying glanced at him, hinting that he should stop talking at this time.

The young master is still here, and there is also Mr. Xie in the Marquis's Mansion. Even if Madam Yu wants to stay longer, those two won't let her. There is no need for the master to take action.

Madam Yu will have to come out of the Marquis' Mansion in an hour at most.

...

The incident at the palace gate caused a huge uproar and spread throughout the capital in no time.

Two days ago, it was said that Madam Yu was going to enter the palace to become an empress, but then she started arguing with the young master of Duke Dingguo's Mansion at the palace gate and was caught by Marquis Ningyuan.

The two former good friends started fighting in the street for Madam Yu. Even Madam Yu's daughter was this young master's, not the one from the palace.

The news spread like wildfire, and within half a day, it was known throughout the city.

When Lady Dingguo heard the news, she covered her chest with her hands, her eyes turned black with anger, and she almost fainted.

Duke Dingguo's face was grim. "Look at your son! He's grown so powerful! He even has a child before he's even married. How can this be ridiculous!"

Not only did he give birth to a child, but he also made a big fuss about it. Now the whole capital knows about it. How will he have the face to appear in court tomorrow!
