Chapter 62062 Xie Zhan, you lunatic
Xie Zhan's breath hitched, and he couldn't help but ask, "You and that Wang Wenshu... have been sleeping in separate rooms?"
"It has nothing to do with the Marquis." Yun Sheng didn't want to provoke Xie Zhan, nor did he want to make things easy for him.
She shook off Xie Zhan's arm, sat up straight, and tilted her head to look: "Since you said you were a neighbor, then the Marquis didn't know that you broke into my wife's boudoir at night. Can I go to the county government to report you?"
Xie Zhan lay sideways, supporting his forehead with one hand.
He raised his eyebrows slightly and sneered nonchalantly, "It is only natural for me to look after my own women and daughters. Even the law doesn't forbid it. I wonder what Ah Sheng wants to sue me for? If you insist on going to the county government, go ahead."
Yun Sheng bit her lip and cursed in her heart, "Shameless."
Looking at Xie Zhan's calm expression, he was not afraid at all that she would go to the yamen to make trouble.
Yun Sheng sneered. Yes, who knows how the county magistrate would flatter him when he saw him.
She took a deep breath and reminded him, "My Lord, you are wrong. I have nothing to do with you now."
Xie Zhan stood up, his face immediately cold. "Divorce him, and pack up your things and return with me tomorrow."
"Whether to divorce or not is my business. The Marquis is still like before, making decisions on my own. Have you ever asked for my opinion?"
Yun Sheng curled his lips. "In the eyes of the Marquis, I am just your pet, right?"
She had been holding these words in her heart for a long time, and today she really had to say them out loud.
It was also because Xie Zhan did not directly order someone to forcibly tie her and her daughter up and take them back to Chang'an that she felt a glimmer of hope, a glimmer of hope that she could completely explain things to Xie Zhan.
Xie Zhan looked dazed and asked her what she meant.
If he really let Yun Sheng make the decision, she would probably never go back with him in this life, and Xie Zhan would have no choice but to let go.
Ask him to let go?
Unless he dies.
"I'll ask you again, are you and Wang Wenshu divorced or not?"
"I also said that this is my personal matter and has nothing to do with the Marquis."
Xie Zhan gritted his teeth and sneered, "Since Ah Sheng doesn't want to sign the divorce agreement, do you want me to put a sword to Wang Wenshu's neck and force him to sign it?"
He didn't want to force her in this way. Not only was it not fair and honest, it also slapped him in the face twice. His woman cared about Wang Wenshu and other wild men.
Yun Sheng laughed angrily: "Xie Zhan, can you please be reasonable? Why do you have to involve others in our matter?"
If anything really happened to Wang Wenshu because of her, Yun Sheng would feel guilty for the rest of her life and would never be able to get over it.
He had a bright future, but it was ruined because of her.
"If you're happy to divorce him, what's the point of having him, a stranger, between you and me?"
Xie Zhan suddenly turned Yun Sheng's face over and gently stroked her red lips with his fingertips. He leaned closer and smiled in Yun Sheng's ear, "Or, Ah Sheng really wants to be a widow. This Marquis doesn't mind."
He laughed softly, but his tone was extremely cold.
Yun Sheng's hair stood on end. She angrily raised her voice, "If anything happens to Wang Wenshu, I will hate you forever. Don't make me hate you."
She is selfish after all. She could have clearly told Xie Zhan that she and Wang Wenshu were not husband and wife, but she said she didn't want to implicate him, and at the same time she used this relationship to block Xie Zhan.
Yun Sheng was afraid that Xie Zhan would become even more reckless after knowing the truth. After all, he was now at risk of stealing someone else's wife.
"This Marquis's woman is obsessed with this wild man. What hope do you think this Marquis can have?"
Hate, hate lasts much longer than love.
If it weren't for the last resort, Xie Zhan didn't want to go that far with Yun Sheng.
Rather than Yun Sheng hating him, he was more afraid that she would not be by his side and leave him.
Yun Sheng closed his eyes. "How do you want me to beg you, Lord, to let Wang Wenshu go? Let me go?"
She wanted Xie Zhan to make a promise, a promise not to move or kill Wang Wenshu.
"Don't you, Ah Sheng, know best what I want?" Xie Zhan suddenly pressed Yun Sheng into his arms. He held her earlobe in his mouth, rubbing and biting it.
The man's eyes were invasive and dangerous, clearly showing that he wanted her.
From the beginning to the end, Xie Zhan only wanted Yun Sheng.
Yun Sheng smiled bitterly: "Is this what the Marquis wants?"
As she finished speaking, she pulled her clothes over her shoulders, wrapped her two snake-like arms around Xie Zhan's neck, and gently kissed Xie Zhan's thin lips in his slightly shrunken pupils.
Xie Zhan's whole body was stiff. Was he dreaming or hallucinating?
The girl's soft lips pressed tightly against his, followed by the faint fragrance of her hair brushing against his neck, and the two round breasts in front of her body rubbed against him intentionally or unintentionally.
Xie Zhan's lower abdomen tightened, and she instantly aroused his desire.
The next moment, something flashed through his mind, and he pushed Yun Sheng away with a stern face.
Yun Sheng looked stunned and muttered to himself, "Isn't this what the Marquis wants?"
He has always been greedy for her body.
Xie Zhan's eyebrows were twitching violently. He suppressed his anger and forced out a few words through his teeth.
"For him, you're willing to go to such lengths to harm yourself? You're actually begging me for this for some other man? Who do you think you are?"
What do you take it as?
Yun Sheng laughed at himself. What dignity did he have in front of her?
"So what does the Marquis want?"
What does he want? What else can he do!
Xie Zhan's chest heaved violently, he felt suffocated, and then he punched the wooden pillar next to him.
He didn't know how the warm atmosphere had developed to this point. Xie Zhan let out a long sigh.
Obviously... he had already figured it out when he came. No matter what Yun Sheng said or did, he would never force her openly again. Since she didn't like his domineering and overbearing coercion, Xie Zhan could naturally find a different approach.
When they first met, she was unwilling to be his concubine, but he still used the method of boiling a frog in warm water to make her come to him obediently. It was possible before, and now it is even possible.
But Xie Zhan overestimated him. After more than a year of torture day and night, he had long lost his original patience and condescending waiting. He finally lost control when he heard that Yun Sheng was unwilling to divorce.
"My Lord, as the saying goes, women in their families are all soft-hearted, and Madam Yun's heart is even softer than most women. Now she's a mother, and you're the father of her child. You're a real family, so how could she really be cruel to you? She's just angry. If you can calm her down, she'll feel better and won't be stubborn with you anymore."
"Besides, the book says that girls should be coaxed, not forced. It's said that weak scholars are more popular with girls. You are so fierce..."
Bai Yuanbao's chatter echoed in Xie Zhan's mind.
He was right, girls are easily soft-hearted, and his Ah Sheng is even more so.
But if Xie Zhan was asked to imitate the posture of those three pale-faced scholars, his face would immediately turn dark, it was simply ridiculous.
Xie Zhan opened his mouth and said hoarsely, "What can I do? I'd like to ask Ah Sheng, what exactly do you want in exchange for a divorce? Are you willing to take our Ah Man back with me?"
"If you truly harbor resentment, I'll ask you to stab me twice. Perhaps that will help you calm down and alleviate your hatred?"
Yun Sheng was completely stunned. While she was still in a daze, a sharp dagger was suddenly stuffed into her palm.
His wrist was held by Xie Zhan. He held his hand, and the blade of the dagger was already pointing directly at his chest. If he took just one more step forward, it would penetrate.
"Ah Sheng, do you hate me? If you really wish me dead, then don't hesitate."
Xie Zhan's eyes turned red and his throat rolled.
Yun Sheng was so scared that his whole body was shaking, not to mention the hand holding the handle of the knife.
Did she hate him? Did she hate the man in front of her?
Yun Sheng couldn't actually answer. It could be said that all the suffering she had endured before was inseparable from him. If he hadn't designed a trap to trap Xie Qingyuan, she wouldn't have been forced to devote herself to him out of desperation, and she wouldn't have been trapped in that small cage of heaven and earth.
The time when he locked her up with a golden chain, or even worse, forced her to lie on the couch, Yun Sheng's dignity and face were humiliated. She really hated him at that time.
But she had also once…had truly loved this handsome man before her. He had been like a savior, saving her from danger. He had taught her to read and write, taught her to ride, and stood by her side. In Yun Sheng's memory, they had also shared a sweet time.
A lie was still a lie; he had deceived her. When the fragile, sugar-coated candied skin between them was torn, only the arsenic and poison remained.
During her time in Wushan Town, Yun Sheng found an unprecedented peace, tranquility, and freedom. She didn't want to dwell on Xie Zhan, as if all grudges and entanglements would fade away with the passage of time.
She no longer hated him, and her heart was calm.
Yun Sheng shook his head and said calmly: "No, I don't hate you."
Xie Zhan was like a landslide, and his mind was in chaos in an instant.
She didn't hate him, how could she not hate him?
Only when there is no love can there be no hate, and the heart will be as still as water.
"A Sheng is wrong. You hate me. How can you not hate me?" Xie Zhan smiled coldly, as if he was talking to himself.
He held Yun Sheng's wrist tightly before she was prepared. Yun Sheng opened her eyes wide in horror. She didn't even have time to stop him, and watched the sharp blade pierce Xie Zhan's chest.
Bright red blood instantly soaked his robe, so red it blinded Yun Sheng. He continued to pull her deeper and deeper, and Yun Sheng trembled like a sieve. Her lips trembled as she asked, "Are you crazy?"
Xie Zhan looked at Yun Sheng tenderly. He seemed to be oblivious to the pain and smiled faintly, "Ah Sheng, are you relieved? If it's not enough, stab me twice more. When you've completely calmed down, will you return with me? You and Ah Man are my dearest treasures. I will treat you and your daughter well."
"Puff!" was the sound of a blade piercing through his flesh. Yun Sheng looked helplessly at his blood-stained hands and shook his head frantically, "I've already said it, I don't hate you anymore."
Xie Zhan's eyes darkened. "You're lying. If you didn't harbor resentment towards me, why wouldn't you want to go back with me?"
Yun Sheng was really afraid of Xie Zhan. She widened her eyes, and when Xie Zhan continued to stab in, she shook her hands and moved away a little.
"Xie Zhan, you lunatic." She used all her strength to pull out the dagger.
Xie Zhan finally shook his body and spat out a mouthful of blood from his throat.
With a "clang", the dagger fell from Yun Sheng's hand.
"Asheng, have you calmed down?" Xie Zhan swallowed the fishy-sweet taste and covered his blood-soaked chest with his big palm perfunctorily.
Yun Sheng just wanted to call him a psycho.
She turned her head away, her shoulders shaking, and pointed at him, "Get out. Get out of here."
Xie Zhan's expression froze.

"My Lord, my Lord, you...what's wrong with you?"
Bai Yuanbao almost fainted from fright at Xie Zhan's bloody chest.
He was horrified and could not help but complain, "Madam Yun is truly cruel. Even if she was angry, how could she hurt you like this? My Lord, please don't think my words are harsh. There are many women in this world, and even more women who can bear children. Madam Yun has already killed you so cruelly, so why do you do this?"
Bai Yuanbao even began to regret that he shouldn't have given the letter to his own master. Look what the letter had done to his master. He was really heartbroken.
"What's all the fuss?" Xie Zhan frowned and said impatiently, "I stabbed myself."
He coughed twice and forced himself to go into the house.
Bai Yuanbao stumbled, unable to believe it: "My Lord, what are you talking about?"
"Didn't you tell me that all girls' families are soft-hearted?" Xie Zhan suppressed the discomfort in his heart and glanced at Bai Yuanbao.
Bai Yuanbao is a bit hard to describe.
This...this, doesn't Madam Yun simply think that her own Marquis is sick?
He had a strange look on his face and tried to defend himself: "But...but you can't ruin your body!"
Bai Yuanbao was terrified. If it went a little deeper, it would probably pierce his heart. Would he still be alive?
"I know what I am doing." Xie Zhan said calmly.
Bai Yuanbao managed to say something after that: "I will bandage your wound first, and then send the guards to call the doctor."
Madam Yun must be too lazy to bother with her own Marquis. She might even be cheering in her heart, or cursing him a few times, saying that it was all her own fault. Fortunately, there is a clinic in this town.
Yun Sheng slept very uneasily at night. She tossed and turned, and in her dream she saw Xie Zhan lying in a pool of blood.
He pulled his own hand and stabbed it straight into his heart.
Yun Sheng woke up with a start, sweat on her forehead and heavy breathing. She kissed her daughter, who was sleeping soundly, and her heart calmed down.
The night outside was dark and silent.
The dagger stabbed so deep, is Xie Zhan really okay?
Yun Sheng pursed his lips. After all, he was Aman’s biological father.
After thinking about it, she was upset. Xie Zhan was such a troublemaker, he deserved it.
There is more than one clinic in this town. Even if Xie Zhan doesn't care, that old fox Bai Yuanbao must be extremely worried, fearing that something bad might happen to his master.
What could happen to him?
When she woke up the next day, Yun Sheng looked unwell. After feeding her daughter, she waited for Aunt Wang to come and help her take care of A-Man.
"Thank you for your hard work, Mom. I'll go to the kitchen to cook."
Aunt Wang waved her hands quickly: "I really like Ah Man, and you called me mother again. How can a mother and daughter be so polite?"
Yun Sheng felt warm in her heart. The former Mrs. Qian had never made her feel the love and care of a mother, but she felt the motherly love in Aunt Wang.
She opened the window to ventilate the room before stepping out of the house.
The collapsed earth wall in the yard is still a pile of wasteland. The "neighbor" said he wanted to rebuild the wall, but there has been no movement so far.
Yun Sheng took a deep breath and went to collect firewood and boil water.
As soon as the corn stalks were lit, Yun Sheng heard Bai Yuanbao crying loudly in the next yard.
"My Lord, my Lord, please wake up quickly. What is going on? Lord, please don't scare me. If anything happens to you, how can I explain to the old lady? The young master is still so young, how can he lose his father? Even for the young master, you have to hold on, Lord!"
He cried with deep emotion, and the other's cries were drowned out by one cry after another.
Yun Sheng paused for a moment, then continued to light his own fire as if nothing had happened.
Bah, Xie Zhan deserves it.
She heard Bai Yuanbao crying with full force, and thought that the man was probably fine.
