Chapter 270 The Truth
Zhao's body softened and she fell to the ground.
Over the years, although she had vaguely guessed the reason, she had been deliberately deceiving herself, preferring to bear the stigma of being too weak to bear a child rather than considering whether Qu Wenmin was deliberately preventing her from getting pregnant again...
She thought that as long as she pretended not to know, as long as time passed, the heart made of stone might be warmed by her, Qu Wenmin would fall in love with her, and then she could give birth to a child for him.
Later, when she got older, she felt that although she had never given birth to his child, Qu Wenmin had been kind to her and only her for decades, never flirting with other women. Perhaps... he had fallen in love with her, but her age did not allow it...
She had been deceiving herself in this way and had survived.
However, at this moment, Qu Wenmin's words just now tore all her whitewashing and all her efforts over the years into pieces.
However, even with the facts before her, she could not accept it and therefore complained angrily.
"Qu Wenmin, what do you mean by this?!"
Qu Wenmin looked at her coldly and said, "What do I mean? Madam, don't you already know everything? Why ask again?"
Zhao's face turned pale as snow. She stared at Qu Wenmin, then her face suddenly twisted. She rushed over and tore Qu Wenmin's clothes. "Qu Wenmin, what are you talking about! We've been married for so many years, and you've only been thinking about your eldest daughter this whole time? Do you know who that woman is? Even if she's been deposed, if you dare to touch her, you're putting our entire family at risk!"
Having already torn their relationship apart, Qu Wenmin simply couldn't bear it anymore. She pushed Zhao to the ground and said coldly, "Madam, I don't understand what you are talking about! Yue'er is just an ordinary woman sold by her uncle and brother. What kind of status can she have? Madam, for the sake of the Second Prince and the Zhao family, as long as you behave yourself, no one will touch your title of General's Wife. But if you continue to act crazy and say nonsense, don't blame me for not cherishing our friendship!"
Zhao, however, was hysterical to the extreme. Her hair was disheveled as she stared at Qu Wenmin, accusing him in a hoarse voice, "Qu Wenmin! Don't even think about it! At worst, we'll fight to the death. I'll personally return to the capital and report everything about you and that bitch to the emperor... Ugh!"
Before Zhao could finish her words, Qu Wenmin suddenly punched her in the abdomen.
Zhao was in so much pain that she couldn't even scream. She fell to the ground and curled up like a shrimp.
Qu Wenmin looked down at Zhao and said coldly, "Madam, I've already warned you. It was you who disobeyed and ignored the whole family. Don't worry, I won't hit you in the face, otherwise it would be disgraceful if the servants saw you. But if you dare to threaten me again, don't blame me for being even more ungrateful than before!"
Zhao looked at Qu Wenmin's extremely cold face, and a look of fear flashed in her eyes.
After being married to Qu Wenmin for so many years, she only knew that he might not love her, but at least he was gentle to her. She never knew that her husband had such a cold and ruthless side.
"Qu... Qu Wenmin, you... uh... you dare to hit me, aren't you afraid of my family and the Second Prince..."
A strange smile appeared on Qu Wenmin's lips. "The Zhao family and the Second Prince? Madam, you don't think that I still have to rely on your family and the Second Prince, do you?"
