Mu Jin, the legitimate daughter of a military family, is a woman who is disdained by her husband and driven out of the house. When she returns, she learns that her husband has taken a new lover. On...
When Su Yuntian's gaze fell on the gentle smile on Mu Jin's face as she received the plum blossom from Eleven, he found Mu Jin's smile so glaring. That smile, uniquely his own, had never been given to him since Mu Jin returned to the capital.
Thinking of this, and when Shen Qianqian casually mentioned during dinner that Mu Jin and Eleven were inseparable every day, rain or shine, his face instantly darkened to a chilling degree.
He felt his heart burning with an unnamed fire, and his blood seemed to boil. He clenched his fists so tightly that his knuckles turned white.
A fire burned in Su Yuntian's chest, making him feel suffocated and uncomfortable. He could no longer bear it. He needed to vent. He exploded. With a loud shout, he used his lightness skill to leap up instantly, gathering his ferocity in his fist and swinging it at Eleven.
Eleven instinctively sensed the sudden danger. He quickly wrapped his arms around Mu Jin's waist and leaped up, avoiding Su Yuntian's attack.
When Mu Jin and Eleven landed not far away and looked at the person who attacked them, Mu Jin was furious when she saw that it was Su Yuntian. She shouted at Su Yuntian.
"Su Yuntian, what's wrong with you!"
At this moment, Su Yuntian thought of how Eleven had actually put her arm around Mu Jin's waist in front of him, and couldn't help but continue to attack Eleven.
Su Yuntian ignored Mu Jin's reprimand. He clenched his fist and continued to attack Eleven fiercely. The two were instantly entangled in the fight, and the scene became intense.
Their movements were swift and precise. Eleven tried to avoid Su Yuntian and did not retaliate.
Su Yuntian was far less polite to Eleven. His punches landed with deadly force, his kicks were powerful and swift, and every strike was filled with power. The hard stone bricks shattered instantly under their feet, leaving a scene of utter devastation.
Mu Jin stood anxiously to the side, thinking that Su Yuntian must have taken the wrong medicine and had an epileptic seizure, coming out to find them so late at night.
Just then, Eleven was unable to dodge in time and Su Yuntian found an opening and struck her in the chest. Eleven staggered back several steps after being hit, clutching her chest in pain, with a trickle of blood oozing from the corner of her mouth.
Upon seeing the injured Eleven, Mu Jin quickly stepped forward to support him. She then turned her head sharply and glared at Su Yuntian with fierce eyes.
"Su Yuntian! What's wrong with you at this hour? How dare you hit my people!"
Su Yuntian retorted angrily, "On what grounds? Because I am your husband, and the King of Yun of Dongyue!"
Seeing the blood spilling from the corner of Eleven's mouth, Mu Jin quickly took out a medicine bottle from her body, poured out two pills, and made Eleven take them. Then she stood in front of Eleven and glared angrily at Su Yuntian.
"Su Yuntian, didn't I say that we would not interfere with each other? I remember I haven't bothered you or caused trouble for your concubine for the past month. What do you mean by this today? You'd better explain yourself clearly."
Su Yuntian looked at Eleven behind Mu Jin with a gloomy expression.
"You haven't bothered me for a month, but you've gone to provoke this stable boy? Mu Jin, do you even know what shame is? Are you trying to humiliate me with a stable boy?"
Mu Jin was stunned. She finally understood. Su Yuntian had really lost his mind. Did he mean that she was misunderstanding and thinking that she and Eleven were having an affair? And that he was even jealous?
Eleven, who was standing to the side, was also furious when he heard Su Yuntian say such things. How could Su Yuntian think of Mu Jin like that? He was about to say something in defense of Mu Jin when he heard Mu Jin sneer at Su Yuntian.
"Su Yuntian, are you jealous? When Mu Jin loved you, you ignored her, but now that you're getting a divorce, you're suddenly concerned about me?"
Su Yuntian said, "Whether in the past or now, as long as you are the Princess Consort of the Yunwang Mansion, you cannot tolerate other men coveting you, nor will you allow me to be cuckolded."
Seeing Su Yuntian's expression as if he wanted to kill Eleven, Mu Jin didn't want to continue fighting him head-on. After all, it was the first time she had discovered that Su Yuntian's martial arts skills were so high.
Not to mention that if the King of Yun of Dongyue really wanted to kill her and Eleven, it would be as easy as turning his hand.
Thinking of this, Mu Jin's tone softened.
"Eleven is the coachman I brought from the General's Mansion, and also the martial arts instructor my father left me. After we were attacked at Baishi Mountain last time, I started having him teach me martial arts, purely for self-defense. Our relationship is completely innocent, nothing like the dirty stuff you're thinking."
Su Yuntian snorted coldly, but seeing that Mu Jin had softened her tone towards him for the first time, his furious heart was indeed soothed, and his clenched fist slowly loosened.
"How do I know what you're saying is true? You say you'll learn martial arts, but who saw it and how can I prove it?" Although Mu Jin rarely explained things to him, Su Yuntian still had some doubts.
Mu Jin was speechless. How else could she prove it? Should she cleave him in two with a sword?
Thinking of this, Mu Jin walked towards the carriage, pulled out a long sword from under the seat, and with a roar, the sword blade sliced through the air and fiercely attacked Su Yuntian.
Su Yuntian reacted quickly and nimbly dodged Mu Jin's attack.
Su Yuntian tried to snatch Mu Jin's sword, but Mu Jin nimbly dodged it and swiftly retaliated. The sword's edge grazed Su Yuntian's sleeve, instantly tearing a hole in the expensive brocade robe he was wearing.
Mu Jin sheathed her sword at the opportune moment and looked at Su Yuntian: "Now you should believe me, right?"
Coming to his senses, Su Yuntian looked at Mu Jin in astonishment. Mu Jin had actually managed to tear his clothes right in front of him. Although Su Yuntian admitted that he had underestimated Mu Jin, which allowed her to find an opening and tear his clothes, Mu Jin's move was still enough to shock him.
Su Yuntian realized that since Mu Jin returned from Hanshan Village, he almost didn't recognize her anymore, let alone his own heart. He felt that the heavy feelings in his heart had been growing day by day, and tonight Mu Jin had shocked him to the peak, like a trapped beast about to break free of its cage.
