Chapter 2 Help
Chen Wan walked over there and saw from afar Chen Wu and Ye Caiwei coming down the stairs, rushing to bear witness.
Shen Wan had always known that the two looked very similar, but she had never thought that they were half-sisters.
Four years ago, my uncle General Ye died on the battlefield while shielding my father from an arrow. My aunt could not bear the blow and fell ill and passed away, leaving my cousin alone.
My father felt sorry for my cousin, so he wanted to bring her back from Qingzhou to take care of her. However, due to his busy military affairs, my second uncle went to the funeral to pick her up, and the person he brought back was Ye Caiwei.
After Ye Caiwei entered the mansion, her parents loved her very much. Everything she had, Ye Caiwei also had.
Even when her father had made military achievements and the emperor wanted to confer the title of county princess on her, he gave it to Ye Caiwei.
In her previous life, Ye Caiwei married Xiao Yun's cousin and became the wife of the prince of Song. The two sisters climbed up the social ladder by stepping on the blood of her father, brother, and maternal grandfather's family.
Hatred was like a vine, tightly wrapping around Chen Wan and almost suffocating him.
However, the fact that Ye Caiwei was born to the Second Master's concubine was only discovered by chance after his death by Shen Wan. Shen Wu and the Second Madam were most likely kept in the dark as well. Otherwise, with their tolerance, how could they allow an illegitimate daughter to become the wife of the Crown Prince of the Duke's Mansion?
When they met face to face, Ye Caiwei didn’t recognize Shen Wan at first glance. After taking another look, she showed her surprise, “Cousin?”
Shen Wu stopped in her tracks and turned to see Shen Wan, who was dressed as a maid. She exclaimed, "Why are you here?!"
"I can't be here?"
Chen Wu knew she had spoken out of turn. "Just now the maid reported that someone had startled the carriage. We were worried it was you, so we were about to rush over to check. Fortunately, it wasn't you. But why are you wearing a maid's skirt?"
Not only did she wear a maid's skirt, but she was also so open and honest, not hiding from them.
Chen Wan had already suppressed his hatred and his eyes swept across Ye Caiwei's face. "The incense I burned was broken. My cousin was worried that I would have a bloody disaster, so I asked the Taoist priest over there to calculate it. The Taoist priest said that if I return home like this, one of me and the maid will die and the other will be injured. If the maid returns home for me, then both of us will be safe."
She is fine!
But what about becoming a king?
Chen Wu rushed to the place where the carriage was startled.
Just like in his previous life, Xiao Yun rescued someone and fell down the hillside and was injured.
Knowing that he had only saved a maid, Xiao Yun's face turned ashen, with hidden anger in his eyes.
Chen Wan stepped forward and bowed in gratitude, "Thank you, King Cheng, for saving my servant's life. If it weren't for you, I'm afraid I would have died on the spot. I present her to King Cheng so that she can repay you for saving my life."
Bao Cui stood aside, her pretty face full of shyness, looking at Xiao Yun with anticipation.
If you can serve the king, you will enjoy endless wealth and glory for the rest of your life.
The veins on Xiao Yun's forehead bulged, "This prince has no shortage of maids to serve him!"
Seeing him covering his arm, Shen Wu said worriedly, "King Cheng, your arm..."
"fine!"
The words almost came out from between his teeth.
He couldn't bear to lose face by injuring himself in order to save a maid.
Xiao Yun mounted his horse, his eyes sinister as he swept across Shen Wan's face and left.
Watching Xiao Yun walk away, Shen Wan hoped that Xiao Yun was just being stubborn and not really okay.
After Xiao Yun left, the onlookers also dispersed. Chen Wu and Ye Caiwei no longer had the mood to continue visiting the Huguo Temple, so they returned home with Shen Wan.
Although the carriage was spacious, it still seemed crowded with three people sitting in it.
As she passed by a busy street, Chen Wan listened to the hustle and bustle outside, lifted a corner of the carriage curtain, and looked out. On the busy street, a handsome man riding on horseback caught her eye with an undeniable force.
It was a face that could put several streets to shame.
But Shen Wan only felt that the word "unlucky" was hitting her forehead.
That man was none other than himself.
It was Xie Jingyu who scattered her ashes!
After finally being reborn, I haven't seen my parents or elder brother yet. Instead, I met a bunch of annoying people, even this bastard.
Thinking of how this bastard had humiliated her in her previous life and even spared her ashes after her death, Shen Wan couldn't control the urge to kill.
Sensing murderous intent, Xie Jingyu looked over here.
Their eyes met unexpectedly.
The next second, Shen Wan lowered the curtain.
Crazy batch.
Can't afford to offend.
After dealing with Xiao Yun and the second wife, I will find an opportunity to deal with him!
To spread the revenge of her ashes——
Must report!
