"But you couldn't wait to divorce Qu Jingyun as soon as you returned to Beijing. Wasn't that because you were extremely disappointed and disgusted with her?"
Qi Yun'er looked bewildered and quickly said, "Look at me, I can definitely be a qualified general's wife, I won't disappoint you, I'm definitely much more suitable than Qu Jingyun."
"Heh." Upon hearing this, Shen Song couldn't help but let out a cold laugh.
So this was Qi Yun'er's goal all along?
He had previously treated her like his mother.
That's absolutely stupid.
Upon hearing this cold laugh, Qi Yun'er quickly looked up at Chen Song, her eyes immediately lighting up.
She knelt on the ground and walked all the way to Chen Song.
"Song'er, I am your aunt. I have treated you well all these years and have always taken good care of you and your younger siblings. Now that your aunt has fallen on hard times, can't you help your aunt persuade your father?"
"Your aunt just wants to stay in the General's Mansion, even if it's as a slave. If she goes out and ends up on the streets, she will die, and your cousins will lose their lives as well."
"Do you want to see that scene?"
Qi Yun'er kept playing the emotional card, tears streaming down her face.
Shen Song saw it all, but only a cold smile played on his lips.
"How did Auntie fall into such a sorry state? Is it because the money she embezzled from the General's Mansion isn't enough to cover her expenses?"
"That aunt spends money too extravagantly. That amount of money is enough to cover the expenses of the entire general's mansion for several years."
Now that Shen Song has come to terms with things, he naturally won't be fooled by Qi Yun'er's few words.
Seeing her gaze grow colder, he said in a low voice, "Do you really think everyone is a fool? The evidence of what you did is irrefutable. Do you think I'd still believe you?"
"I know you're blaming me, Song'er, but I had my reasons for leaving back then, it was...it was..."
After struggling for a long time, Qi Yun'er finally found a reason for herself.
He hurriedly spoke up and said, "It was your mother who forced me to leave. She said that if I didn't leave, she would take action against you. I had no choice. When I was kicked out, I didn't take a single penny. Otherwise, I wouldn't be in this state today."
"Song'er, please believe me just this once. I heard people along the way saying that I ran off with the General's Mansion's money. This is a huge injustice. The General's Mansion is like my own home to me. How could I possibly covet the General's Mansion's money?"
"This is absolutely a case of someone deliberately framing me; I could never have done such a thing."
As for who was wrongly accused, the situation is quite clear.
Shen Song never expected that even at this point, Qi Yun'er would still be lying.
He snorted coldly and said, "You let Qi Mingyue steal the defense map, and our General's Mansion almost became a criminal. It's all because of you. I wish I could kill you now. How dare you show your face in front of me?"
"I won't believe anything you say now."
After saying this, Shen Song looked up at Shen Yunting and continued, "Father, she has been bullying others in the General's Mansion for the past few years and almost ruined my younger brother and sister. Now that she's back, how are you going to deal with her?"
Qi Yun'er was immediately jolted awake, her brain racing at that moment.
She went too far back then, and now Shen Song no longer trusts her. What should she do?
Qi Yun'er finally turned her gaze to Shen Yunting.
The person in charge of the General's Mansion now is Shen Yunting. As long as he lets me go, everything will be fine.
With this thought in mind, Qi Yun'er's ingratiating gaze fell on Shen Yunting.
“General, during the five years I spent in your mansion, I treated your son and daughter with utmost sincerity and never let them suffer any injustice. I have earned credit for my hard work, even if I have not done anything particularly meritorious.”
"Please let me off this time for the sake of this. As for the matter of embezzling the General's mansion's money, it was really a misunderstanding. I was framed. I am willing to serve you as a slave."
Qi Yun'er winked at her two children beside her.
The two immediately understood and knelt down.
"Uncle General, my mother truly cares for the General's Mansion. Over the years, she has been much more attentive to your children than to my brother and me. She is truly devoted to you and has been waiting for you to return."
"She has been waiting for you to come back for so long, you can't just abandon her."
Seeing that Shen Yunting remained unmoved, Qi Mingyue gritted her teeth and said, "My mother had her reasons for targeting the former general's wife. She had been missing for five years and must have lost her chastity, yet she still occupied the position of the general's wife. My mother targeted the former general's wife to speak out for you."
Everything she did was for you.
Upon hearing Qi Mingyue's words, Qi Yun'er immediately became excited.
He hurriedly chimed in, "Yes, everything I did back then was for you, General. Qu Jingyun's sudden disappearance must mean she eloped with her lover."
"Then she suddenly returned to Beijing. You treated her so well, but she cheated on you. I really feel sorry for you."
For men, a woman's chastity is of utmost importance.
As Qi Yun'er thought this, the corners of her mouth slowly curled up, and her expression became somewhat smug.
Finally, she said, "Although I have been married before, I have only ever thought of you, General."
"If I had met the General long ago, I would surely have married no one but you. Why have we wasted so many years?"
Qi Yun'er spoke with such conviction, as if she would really be with Shen Yunting without Qu Jingyun.
Her tender gaze fell on Shen Yunting's face, and she mustered up her courage to tug at the corner of his clothes.
But the other party easily dodged it.
"How dare you slander my wife?"
Shen Yunting's expression grew colder and colder, and his gaze toward the other person was like that of a dead man.
"Who gave you the audacity?"
Qi Yun'er's body stiffened abruptly, and she hurriedly spoke up to defend herself: "We didn't slander her. Who in the capital doesn't know that Qu Jingyun has been missing for five years? She must have eloped with someone."
The more she talked, the more certain she became, even convinced that Shen Yunting thought the same way.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have been so eager to divorce Qu Jingyun as soon as he returned to Beijing.
You should know that getting a divorce at this time would carry a very serious charge.
Unexpectedly, after hearing this, Shen Yunting reached out and gently pinched her chin.
The two were very close, and Qi Yun'er couldn't help but feel a surge of joy.
But to her surprise, a sharp pain shot through her chin the next moment, and she couldn't even cry out in pain.
He collapsed to the ground, curled up in pain.
Her chin had been removed, and no matter how hard she tried to speak, all she could do was drool.
"Mother, Mother, what's wrong?" Qi Mingyue rushed over, her eyes wide, and huge tears kept falling down her face.
"If I hear any more nasty things about my wife from you, I will not let you off the hook," Shen Yunting threatened.
An immense aura erupted at that moment.
