Chapter 56 056 [Second update, copy] Why not kill me first...
The roads in Wushan Town are rugged, and it is raining late at night, making it even more difficult to travel.
Xie Zhan walked in the rain, bean-sized raindrops slid down his forehead and dripped into the cuffs of his clothes, but he didn't care at all and just raised his hand to wipe his face.
The rain made his outer robe heavy, sticky, damp and cold, but Xie Zhan's heart was warm.
Bai Yuanbao told him to set off again tomorrow morning, but how could he wait all night?
I'm afraid I won't be able to sleep all night.
It was raining late at night and there were no pedestrians on the streets, but the road could still be vaguely seen.
Xie Zhan was riding on his horse, his eyes narrowed as he looked at the small plaque hanging on the door of the clinic. He felt complicated, but the sound of heavy rain in his ears made his heart calmer than ever before.
He was just focused on the ecstasy and excitement of getting his lost baby back, but he never thought about why his Ah Sheng ended up living in the clinic.
Even though she opened a shop, she never studied medicine.
Xie Zhan had thought about it countless times, and had woken up from dreams countless times in the middle of the night. If Yun Sheng really dared to have another man, he would kill him with a knife.
He stroked the sword at his side, lowered his eyes, and had an unclear expression.
Bai Yuanbao, his old bones, suffered a lot. He was so cold that he kept wanting to go to the toilet. He thought that the Marquis would be impatient to push the door open and come in, but he didn't know what he was thinking.
He was puzzled and shivered with cold, asking, "My Lord?"
Xie Zhan suddenly looked up and said in a hoarse voice, "Go knock on the door."
Bai Yuanbao immediately understood that the Marquis was afraid to go forward because he was close to home.
He raised his chin and signaled the guards to dismount.
The guard held the horse in one hand and knocked on the door with all his might.
"Is anyone there? It's hard to walk on a rainy night, I'd like to stay overnight."
"Is anyone home? If the host is kind enough to let us rest for the night?"
Yun Sheng had not gone to bed yet, because she was worried about the beggar. It was raining heavily tonight, and it was impossible for him to hide in the corn stalks. She looked over and found that the beggar was gone. She didn't know where the child had gone.
She was very worried, and Wang Wenshu naturally noticed it, so he stayed in the main room to coax Aman tonight.
He would not force Yun Sheng to say something she was unwilling to say, but would use this clumsy method to accompany her.
Just as the two of them coaxed the child to sleep, they heard bursts of knocking on the door outside.
Wang Wenshu's expression changed, and he hesitated, "How could anyone travel in such heavy rain?"
"The rain came in the middle of the night, how could anyone have known it would happen?" Yun Sheng laughed, "You're too cautious. This town is simple and honest, what could possibly happen? Besides, this man only came to the clinic, so he must be injured. How could I just stand by and watch him die?"
She looked at her daughter, who had fallen asleep, tenderly and said, "Just think of it as accumulating blessings for A-man."
Wang Wenshu thought for a moment. Indeed, nothing major had happened in the town for many years. Perhaps he was overthinking it.
He looked at the heavy rain outside the window and said worriedly, "It's raining so hard, you hold A-Man and I'll go open the door."
Yun Sheng held up the oil-paper umbrella and shook his head, "No need. Look how soundly Ah Man is sleeping. If I try to hold her again, I'm afraid she'll wake up."
Wang Wenshu looked at the chubby little girl in his arms and stopped insisting.
But he was still worried, so he stood under the eaves holding the child and waiting.
Yun Sheng crossed the courtyard holding an umbrella. She used her key to unlock the back door of the shop, shook off the raindrops from her umbrella, and said hurriedly, "Don't worry, sir. I'll open the door right away."
Separated by a wooden door, Xie Zhan's fists clenched tighter and tighter.
Bai Yuanbao was quick to support the unsteady Xie Zhan. Even he was so nervous that his heart was pounding, let alone the Marquis?
Xie Zhan had thought about Yun Sheng's soft voice countless times in his dreams.
Ah Sheng, Ah Sheng, it was truly his Ah Sheng.
Xie Zhan's heart suddenly felt swollen and slightly hot.
With a creak, the heavy wooden door was opened by Yun Sheng. For some reason, her right eyelid twitched violently.
Thunder suddenly exploded, and half of a man's profile suddenly appeared behind the wooden door. When the other party's dark and deep eyes stared straight at him, Yun Sheng's pupils widened and his breath was held for a moment.
Her legs went weak and she struggled to hold on to the wall. Her whole body was shaking like a sieve and her mouth was trembling so much that she couldn't utter a word.
"My dear Ah Sheng, you made it so hard for me to find you!" The dim light reflected on the man's face, which was as gloomy as if it was covered with ink.
His eyes were as sharp as a blade, and the look he fixed on Yun Sheng was even more suffocating than when they first met. He was like a snake or scorpion staring at its prey.
Yun Sheng's throat seemed to be strangled by someone. She couldn't breathe, but she still tried to close the door like crazy.
Xie Zhan almost fainted. He wanted to hold her tightly in his arms and talk to her, but he never expected that his Ah Sheng would see him as if she had seen a ghost that was out to take her life.
Her reaction, and now her hasty slamming of the door, poured a bucket of cold water on the burning heat in Xie Zhan's heart, and replaced it with a rage.
Did he disgust her so much? Was he so frightening to her? What was she afraid of? Or, in other words, what was she hiding?
Xie Zhan's eyebrows jumped violently and he clenched his teeth.
Yun Sheng's heart was in turmoil as she thought of her daughter in the courtyard. She would never go back to the Marquis' Mansion with Xie Zhan, and her daughter would never let him take her away.
With the little strength she had, Xie Zhan had to struggle just by raising his hand.
"Mrs. Sheng, it's raining so hard, why don't you invite the guests in?"
The sudden male voice startled the two of them.
Xie Zhan stared at Yun Sheng in disbelief. He swallowed down the fishy-sweet taste that was about to surge up in his throat. His head was buzzing. He took a step forward, pulled the limp Yun Sheng over, and forced himself into the backyard.
The two men's eyes met through the rain.
One is cold and hard, the other is gentle.
One of them was holding Yun Sheng in his arms, and the other was holding a child in his arms.
When Xie Zhan's eyes fell on the white-faced man holding the child, his body swayed, blood rushed to his brain, and he fell straight backwards like a landslide.
Bai Yuanbao hurriedly pulled his own master back. Xie Zhan's blood was boiling, and the fishy and sweet taste that he had just suppressed could no longer be suppressed. He choked twice and a mouthful of bright red blood spurted out of his throat.
The rain washed away the blood, which was shocking to the onlookers.
Yun Sheng's heart tightened for a moment.
Xie Zhan casually wiped the corner of his lips, turned around stiffly, and grabbed Yun Sheng's shoulders tightly.
A child? How dare she? She didn't want to give birth to him, but she willingly gave birth to a child for another man.
Xie Zhan was filled with rage. What did she want? Did she want to anger him to death?
How dare she let another dirty man touch her, how dare she!
Wang Wenshu realized it belatedly and said anxiously, "We are kind enough to let you stay for one night. What are you doing? Please get out."
He smelled an extremely dangerous aura from this man, and the other person stared at him with a sinister look.
"Shengniang, come here quickly." Wang Wenshu spoke again.
"Sheng Niang? Sheng Niang, what a good Sheng Niang." Xie Zhan sneered. He shook Yun Sheng tightly, forcing her to look up: "A Sheng, tell him, who am I to you?"
Guest, this is really ridiculous.
Wang Wenshu was so frightened that his legs went limp.
Yun Sheng's lips were bitten until they turned white. She took a deep breath and said in a firm tone, "I have nothing to do with the Marquis. The Marquis may have recognized the wrong person. Please leave."
She knew Xie Zhan had just misunderstood, misunderstanding that Ah Man was her daughter with Wang Wenshu. Yun Sheng consoled herself. Even if he misunderstood, how could such a proud and noble man like him swallow such humiliation?
I guess for the sake of his own face, he will no longer have any thoughts about her.
Xie Zhan's chest heaved violently, the rain blurring his vision. He tugged at Yun Sheng's hand, which was shaking constantly, his breathing heavy and rapid. "Say it again to me."
"Say it, Xie Yunshi, Xie Yunshi, you are really great."
Xie Zhan's eyes were burning red, and his eyes were bloodshot, like a trapped beast.
"No matter how many times the Marquis asks me to say it, I'll give the same answer." This was the first time Yun Sheng looked at Xie Zhan face to face tonight.
What did he want her to say? He probably already had a lovely wife and child by his side, so why was he looking for her?
Yun Sheng didn't want to be weak anymore. She just wanted freedom. She had done nothing wrong, so why didn't she dare to face him?
Xie Zhan laughed until he felt cold, and said angrily, "Xie Yunshi, are you trying to anger me to death, and your husband to death?"
Wang Wenshu was shocked: "Sheng Niang, what is he talking about?"
It would have been fine if Wang Wenshu hadn't spoken, but once he did, he was provoking and angering Xie Zhan. Xie Zhan glared at him coldly, then drew the sword from its scabbard and walked over.
When Yun Sheng saw this, his legs immediately went weak.
She knew and had seen Xie Zhan's madness. Why did he draw his sword? What did he want to do?
Yun Sheng lifted her heavy skirt and ran over.
She opened her arms and stood in front of Wang Wenshu and her daughter.
Xie Zhan pointed his sword directly at Yun Sheng and shouted sternly, "Get out of the way."
Yun Sheng refused to give in and asked bluntly, "What does the Marquis want to do?"
"What do you think I want to do?" Xie Zhan said solemnly. He suddenly smiled and said, "After I kill him, you will return with me obediently and I will forgive you for what happened."
Yun Sheng closed his eyes. He was indeed a madman.
"If you want to kill him, why not kill me first?" Yun Sheng said, taking two steps forward fearlessly.
Wang Wenshu was so anxious that he was sweating profusely: "Shengniang, come back and hold Ah Man. I don't need you to stand in front of me."
He wanted to pull Yun Sheng out, but he was worried about the child in his arms. If they got caught in the rain, he was afraid that the child would suffer from a high fever.
Yun Sheng turned around and said with a soothing smile, "Don't worry about me. Just hold Ah Man tightly and don't let her catch a cold."
Seeing the two of them being so affectionate with each other, Xie Zhan covered his heart with his hands, feeling as if someone was cutting his flesh there, one cut after another, causing him great pain.
Good, good, she is really good.
He was filled with hostility, his eyes dark and sinister. Xie Zhan forced out a few words through gritted teeth: "Xie Yun, do you really think that I dare not kill you? That's why you threaten me so fearlessly?"
It doesn’t matter, it doesn’t matter. After he kills this man, she will still be his, and she will naturally return to him obediently.
Yun Sheng smiled bitterly, "My Lord, you are wrong. How could I not know myself? So you killed me too, so that our family of three can be reunited in the underworld."
She clenched her palms, her heart in her throat.
Yun Sheng was betting. She was betting that Xie Zhan was still reluctant to kill her, otherwise why would he come all the way here?
She also bet that no matter how angry Xie Zhan was, he would not kill innocent people.
A family of three, what a good family of three.
Xie Zhan was gloomy, his face dark, and he said coldly, "You are dreaming. This Marquis tells you that you are my person in life, and you will be my ghost in death."
Yun Sheng walked forward slowly, and Xie Zhan was forced to retreat step by step.
He was furious and demanded, "How dare you, how dare you? How dare you protect this wild man and..."
"Shut up." Yun Sheng couldn't stand it any longer: "She is not."
Even though Xie Zhan hadn't said anything yet, she knew what he wanted to say.
That was the daughter she had given birth to with so much difficulty, the apple of her eye, and also Xie Zhan's own flesh and blood.
Even if he didn't know, Yun Sheng wouldn't allow him to say such harsh words.
Xie Zhan looked up, his shoulders shaking from laughing, his red eyes fixed on Yun Sheng.
His expression suddenly calmed down, and he seemed to be muttering to himself: "You are protecting them, how dare you protect them?"
Xie Zhan had no way to retreat. If Yun Sheng took another step forward, the sword in his hand would pierce her heart.
Yun Sheng was still moving forward, and Xie Zhan was furious: "Xie Yunshi, are you really not afraid of death?"
With a "clang" sound, his hand softened and the sword fell to the ground.
Yun Sheng breathed a sigh of relief.
Suddenly, she was carried on Xie Zhan's shoulders. He strode into the room, carrying Yun Sheng.
As they passed the corridor, Xie Zhan paused and ordered Bai Yuanbao, "Detain this man and... and that child for me first."
"Let me go, Aman, Aman." Yun Sheng looked anxious.
The child may have sensed something, and his crying became louder in the rainy night.
