Chapter 13: Insolence
The voice came from the other side of the rockery. The person who was more than ten steps away just now came over without knowing when. If Xie Jingyu had not pulled her back, she would have been caught in the act.
Shen Wan's nervous heart was about to jump out of his throat.
The Prince of Yongqing coaxed Xu Zhiyi, "I miss my cousin so much, it will be over in a while."
Xu Zhiyi begged for mercy, "Cousin, please let me go today. I still want to dance today..."
"Who are you dancing for? Do you still want to marry someone else?"
"Be gentle, cousin. It won't hurt you."
Shameless sounds kept coming.
Chen Wan was afraid, angry, and ashamed. It would have been fine if she was the only one eavesdropping, but there was someone else with her, a man, a man she wished she could kill and grind to dust. Chen Wan wanted to die.
I felt even more sorry for my elder sister.
She knew that the Prince of Yongqing had an affair with her cousin and even got her pregnant, killing her elder sister, but she never thought he would be so shameless. This was the residence of Princess Shunyang, and he came to the appointment to seek excitement, throwing all the righteousness and integrity to the wind.
This place is remote, but it doesn't mean that no one will come here. Once discovered, both the Yongqing Marquis' Mansion and the Xu family will lose face.
Shen Wanqi's chest rose and fell, and his breath sprayed on Xie Jingyu's palm, which was hot, wet, itchy and numb.
Make him breathe hard.
Shen Wan didn't dare to look him in the eye, and was so angry that she didn't even notice.
There were voices coming from the other side, which scared the two people who were trying to have a secret love affair and made them leave in a hurry.
When they left, Xie Jingyu put his arm around Chen Wan's waist and moved to the other side of the rockery so as not to be exposed.
Fortunately, she left, otherwise she and Xie Jingyu would have to listen to a live sex show.
After making sure that the person had gone far away and Shen Wan was struggling, Xie Jingyu finally let go of the hand covering her mouth, his palm hot and wet.
Shen Wan was about to leave, but Xie Jingyu grabbed her back and held her against the rockery. "You pretended not to see me. I just helped you, and you didn't even say 'thank you'?"
As soon as he got close, Shen Wan trembled with fear, his face pale.
"Are you afraid of me?"
Not just fear, but terror.
Shen Wan couldn't even utter half a word, his eyes were full of defensiveness, and there was some hidden murderous intent.
What did he do? This woman was not only afraid of him, but even wanted to kill him.
Shen Wan was so scared that she didn't even dare to breathe. Xie Jingyu took a step back. Shen Wan didn't even have time to catch her breath and walked away quickly.
Watching her fleeing, there was a barely perceptible hurt in Xie Jingyu's eyes.
Chen Wan trotted back to the garden and saw Shanhu and Prince Zhaoping waiting by the lake. She walked over quickly.
Seeing this scene, Xie Jingyu pursed his beautiful lips into a straight line.
Shen Wan walked over and Shanhu came to meet her, "Where did you go, young lady? The prince of Zhaoping has been waiting for you for a while."
Shen Wan apologized, "I'm sorry to have kept Prince Zhaoping waiting for so long."
The Prince of Zhaoping asked, "Miss Shen Er wants to talk to me about something?"
Shen Wan nodded slightly.
She glanced at Shanhu, who looked at her and walked away a few steps.
After making sure that no one was around, Shen Wan looked at the Prince of Zhaoping, "I have always hoped that you could become my brother-in-law."
The light in the eyes of the Prince of Zhaoping instantly extinguished, "Your elder sister and I are destined to be together... but not to be together."
Shen Wan asked, "My eldest sister has been married for two years, why haven't you married yet?"
The Prince of Zhaoping did not speak.
Shen Wan asked again, "Do you still like my eldest sister?"
Each sentence is more presumptuous than the last.
The Prince of Zhaoping looked embarrassed and turned to leave.
Shen Wan did not stop him, but asked again, "If my eldest sister gets divorced, are you still willing to marry her?"
The Prince of Zhaoping paused.
He turned to look at Shen Wan, "Divorce? Why would your eldest sister divorce?"
"She will definitely get a divorce!"
The sound of heavy bags falling to the ground was loud.
She looked at the Prince of Zhaoping, "If you have already let my elder sister go, I will apologize to you for my previous intrusion. Just pretend that I never said anything..."
"I will marry you!"
Do it decisively, without any hesitation.
Shen Wan's nose felt sore.
It’s not worth it for my elder sister, but it’s also worth it for her.
But she had to say something upfront, "My eldest sister will only be divorced once in her life. From now on, she will only be widowed, not divorced."
"I won't let her down."
Shen Wan also believed that the husband her father chose for her eldest sister would not be wrong.
Just because the prince of Zhaoping went to pay tribute to his eldest sister after her death, it was worth a gamble.
Chen Wan said, "Outside the Huguo Temple, the Taoist priest who has become famous recently is my man. If you are sure you don't mind my eldest sister being married and still want to marry her, then find a way to ask my aunt to find that Taoist priest to help you calculate your marriage."
"If you mind, it's only natural. After my eldest sister gets divorced, I will find her a beautiful place where she can live out her life."
This was Shen Wan's original plan. After Shen Yu divorced, she would find a place with beautiful scenery to settle down. After she had taken revenge, she would go to be with her eldest sister.
But when they were shopping that day, she saw Chen Yu panicking and avoiding the Prince of Zhaoping, and after he left, she secretly glanced at him. Chen Wan knew that her elder sister had not let go of the Prince of Zhaoping, and she also happened to discover that the Prince of Zhaoping had not forgotten Chen Yu either.
She had felt the pain of lovers who could not end up together in Xie Jingyu in her previous life, and she hoped that her elder sister and the Prince of Zhaoping would have no regrets in this life.
