Shen Ning expressed his apology, and Xue He's anger subsided somewhat, but he still didn't have a good look on his face and left with a bow.
Mo Xue'er wrinkled her nose: "The young lady is good, but he is bad."
Shen Ning tapped her forehead: "You can't look at it like that."
“He was at a low point, and he had just gone through something terrible and was humiliated. It’s normal for him to be angry when people call him over to give him charity. I was just thinking about helping him and didn’t think things through for a moment.”
"He's not a bad person, he's just hurt and trying to protect his dignity and pride."
"He didn't beg me for charity, so I can't expect him to be all smiles and grateful."
Mo Xue'er blinked: "I'm confused."
Shen Ning didn't stop talking just because she was confused. She pinched her cheek and said, "Respect others, especially those who are in trouble."
Because no one knows whether it's mud from the ground or a dragon lurking in the abyss.
Respect is a form of kindness, and it also leaves you a way out. If there is no deep-seated hatred, why insist on pushing someone into the mud?
Mo Xue'er: "Will he come to the study?"
Shen Ning: "I don't know, but it's not important."
She simply saw it and offered a helping hand; whether Xue He was willing to accept her help was up to him, and she couldn't force him.
She wanted a top scholar to serve as her advertisement, but if the person didn't cooperate, even if she forced him to stay, it might not be a good thing.
After drinking tea, Shen Ning led Mo Xue'er on a stroll, heading towards Zhuque Street.
There are many acquaintances on the street. Some will greet you, and some will pass by. But Shen Ning never expected to run into Wei Congwen on the street.
He wore a thin white robe with a heavy quilted cloak over it, his hair was disheveled, his face was as pale as a ghost, and his expression was blank as if he had lost his soul.
Shen Ning: I've only heard that Wei Congwen was stupid, I've never heard that he went mad?
To be honest, he really does look like he's possessed.
Shen Ning just wanted to walk past him silently, not wanting to get tainted by his bad luck, but Wei Congwen suddenly noticed her, staring straight at her with a murderous look on his face as he strode towards her.
Mo Lin stopped the person three steps away: "If you come any closer, I'll make my move."
Wei Congwen ignored him, staring intently at Shen Ning, his gaze sharp as if trying to pierce through her. He asked, "Shen Ning, is it you?"
Shen Ning frowned: "What did you say?"
Wei Congwen trembled with excitement: "Why did Shen Shu marry me? Why did she divorce me? Is all of this because of you?"
Shen Ning rolled her eyes speechlessly: "Are you out of your mind? On your wedding day, Shen Shu insisted on marrying you even though she was a substitute bride. You were the ones who made vows of eternal love, and now you're the ones getting a divorce. I've been keeping my distance from you, and now you're questioning me? What does that have to do with me?"
Wei Congwen gripped Mo Lin's arm tightly, trying to push him away, his emotions running high: "No, no... none of this is right! You love Shu'er the most, she's your own sister. No matter what she does, you'll help her and forgive her. How can you ignore her, and now you've let her fall back into Han Yin's hands?!"
Wei Congwen spoke with great emotion, and Shen Ning's heart skipped a beat as an absurd thought surfaced in her mind.
Wei Congwen... No way?
Suppressing the turmoil in her heart, Shen Ning sneered sarcastically, "Your brain must be full of water, talking nonsense."
"She's mine, she's my wife..." Wei Congwen seemed to have lost his mind, staring at Shen Ning with resentment, then muttered to himself in a daze, "How could I divorce her? How could I treat her like that, my Shu'er..."
A heavy weight settled in Shen Ning's heart, followed by a strange sense of pleasure after a hint of crisis.
Could Wei Congwen have been reborn as well?
That would be interesting.
In his previous life, Wei Congwen longed for Shen Shu but could not obtain her, regarding her as a pure and flawless white moonlight. In this life, Wei Congwen finally obtained his own moonlight, only to be abandoned by it.
His rebirth was timed perfectly, just as the Wei family fell into ruin, the two divorced, and now Shen Shu and Han Yin were deeply in love.
Wow, they really know how to pick their timing.
This will make the story more interesting.
Shen Ning knew perfectly well what was going on, but her expression remained unchanged: "I heard you were possessed by an evil spirit after falling into the water, and now it seems it's true. You deserved it!"
She made no attempt to hide her schadenfreude, and after speaking, she didn't even glance at him again before leaving with her entourage.
After being pushed away, Wei Congwen leaned against the wall, slowly slumped down, and sat down, his eyes filled with pain and confusion.
"Why did this happen? It was all wrong, everything was wrong..."
The girl he had longed for but could not have became his wife, yet he did not cherish her. Instead, he pushed her further and further away, leading her back to Han Yin.
Thinking back on his past life, he felt immense regret for what he had lost.
However, the other half rationally and clearly remembers all of Shen Shu's behavior and true colors in this life. She is no longer obedient, but jealous, foolish, unreasonable, and unchaste.
No, that's not his Shu'er.
His daughter is innocent, kind, pure, and beautiful; something must have gone wrong.
Yes, something must be wrong, Shu'er, he needs to go find his Shu'er.
Wei Congwen got up and started running towards the city gate. After a while, he realized that the manor where Shen Shu was staying was quite remote. He had no money on him. After searching for a long time, he finally took off the only jade buckle on his waist and handed it to the coachman, asking him to take him out of the city.
He desperately wanted to see Shen Shu and tell her about the longing that had spanned a lifetime.
His Shu'er was the most innocent and kind-hearted. His Shu'er loved him deeply. She was forced to follow Han Yin. She...
"Mmm, ah~~~~ Goro, be gentle, mmm~~~~~~"
"Heh, be gentler? Isn't that what you, you little slut, like best?"
"Ugh, you're always bullying me~~~ Ugh~~~~~"
Wei Congwen froze, hiding in the corner, too afraid to move, and was forced to listen to the whole erotic performance.
He couldn't believe that the dissolute, fawning woman was the girl he loved.
He knew that Shen Shu had followed Han Yin in her previous life, so he didn't realize something was wrong when the two of them were together. But in his memory, Shen Shu always had a worried look on her face, and her words were full of helplessness and bitterness from being forced by Han Yin. In the end, she had to compromise because of Han Yin's power, but her heart always loved him deeply.
But now he could tell that Shen Shu was happy. With the memories of this life integrated, he and Shen Shu had also had a deep and loving relationship, but he always restrained himself and treated her gently. However, Shen Shu would always scratch him a few times afterward, dissatisfied. It turned out that this was the kind of love she liked.
As the passion subsided, the two embraced. Shen Shu sweetly pleaded, her voice alluring, "Wu Lang, when are you going to take me back home? I can't stay here any longer."
Han Yin laughed and said, "So eager? Aren't you afraid your ex-husband will find out?"
