Chapter 1: Calculation, I Can't Marry You



"Bitch! Look at the beautiful daughter you gave birth to!"

In the general's mansion, the mistress Li was so angry that she took action herself and slapped the beautiful woman who was kneeling on the ground in the face.

The beautiful woman's mouth was bleeding and her face swelled up instantly.

Seeing that she was silent as a dead person, Li shouted sternly, "Someone come! Hit her!"

Two sturdy maids came forward and grabbed the beautiful woman who didn't struggle at all, and slammed her head hard on the ground, making a shocking sound.

Just when the thorns were about to hit the beautiful woman.

"stop!"

As the sound was heard, the vine thorn was grasped by someone.

The maid was also kicked away.

She was a girl with a big belly and fiery red clothes. Soon, blood began to drip from her hand that was holding the thorn.

The beautiful woman, who had remained indifferent until now, suddenly changed her expression.

I protected her hand distressedly, "Jing'er!"

"Mom, I'm fine. I just got a little skin scratched by a small thorn." Her eyes slowly swept around the room and finally landed on Li. "Today, my daughter wants to see who dares to touch you in front of me."

The maids all shrank back at the understatement of the words.

Although this Third Young Lady was usually kind, her skills were second only to the General's in this mansion. The maid was a little afraid and did not dare to approach.

Li was able to remain calm, "Ling Jing, although you are a concubine's daughter, you are still the master's flesh and blood. I have sent a letter to the border about your ugly deeds. I will not do anything to you before the master responds. But," she sneered, "as the head mistress of the Ling Mansion, I am qualified to deal with a lowly concubine. Even the master will definitely not ask about it."

He looked at the beautiful woman again, "Zhen Mi, you can't blame me. It's not like I didn't give you and your daughter a chance. Seven months ago, I found a bastard in your daughter's belly, and I suppressed the matter. Seven months, you had enough time to get rid of the bastard! But you abused yourselves, and your belly is getting bigger day by day. You are shameless, but we still want it!"

Ling Jing said calmly, "Please keep your mouth shut, he's not a bastard, his father is Shangguan Xun!"

"That's right, the father of the bastard in my third sister's belly is called Shangguan Xun."

An innocent and cute girl walked in. She walked up to Ling Jing and said, "Do you believe this? My idiot third sister? Do you really think that the person who slept with you that night more than seven months ago was Brother Xun?"

There was a flash of mockery in her eyes. "Back then, you were drugged and unconscious in the inn. As your sister, I sympathized with you and naturally found a few strong men for you to enjoy. Who could have guessed that you were so cheap that you would refuse strong men and stumble into some wild man's room in a daze."

He chuckled, "Brother Xun thought of your old relationship and was afraid that you would be sad, so he said that the person that night was him! He also said that he wanted to marry you! Brother Xun hasn't come to see you for more than three months, right? Do you want to know the reason?"

She leaned closer to Ling Jing, "Because he is with me. My dear sister, let me tell you one more thing. When you were drugged in the inn, it was indeed done by people from the underworld. But those people from the underworld were found by me, your sister, to honor you...ah..."

Before he could finish his words, he was grabbed by the neck.

Seeing Ling Yanran rolling her eyes, everyone around her panicked.

Sudden.

"Ajing! Stop it!"

The wind is blowing hard and the cold front is icy.

The five-foot-long sword was pointed at her throat.

Ling Jing looked at her childhood sweetheart, her face twisted into a weird angle, and she whispered his name.

"Shangguan Xun, you're pointing a sword at me?"

A trace of pain flashed in the eyes of the man in white clothes, who was as handsome as jade.

Slowly move the sword away.

"Ajing, I am sorry for you. Don't take your anger out on Yanran."

It was like hearing a huge joke, Ling Jing almost didn't recognize him anymore.

"Do you know that it was her fault that I took Chinese medicine that night more than seven months ago?"

Shangguan Xun nodded with some difficulty, "Yanran told me that night. She regretted it very much and cried very sadly in front of me. She even wanted to commit suicide, but I stopped her. Ah Jing, Yanran is still young. She felt that she was a legitimate daughter, but General Ling liked you, a illegitimate sister, in every way. She was jealous for a moment, so she did that ignorant thing."

"A Jing," he looked at her seriously, "I haven't come to see you for the past three months, not because I mind that the baby in your belly is not my own flesh and blood. It's not because I'm heartless to you. It's because I... I found myself gradually falling in love with Yanran. It's because of our friendship since childhood that I can't marry you when I clearly like Yanran. This is unfair to both you and Yanran."

He sighed again, "Ajing, Yanran is different from you. You can take care of yourself at any time and will not suffer any loss. But she is just a weak and naive girl, she doesn't have any mind and she is not smart enough. The only wrong thing she did, the bold thing, was to drug you. I also watched her grow up, and I originally protected her as a sister. I don't know when I found that I wanted to protect her for the rest of my life. Ajing, you know. You can live with me or without me, but Yanran can't. Don't worry, I will plead with General Ling and his wife for the child in your belly. Ask them to let you give birth to it. Whether you want to get married or not in the future, I will take care of you. You are also my sister..."

His smile was like a spring breeze, as if he had walked out of a Jiangnan ink-splashing painting.

With a poetic tone that was almost tender, "Be good, put Yanran down. Let's not make trouble, okay? You are pregnant, I will take you downstairs to apply medicine on your hand and bandage it. Look at you, you always forget that you are a girl. Fortunately, it was only your hand that was pierced this time. If your face was disfigured, you would cry." As if treating a rare naughty child, with full of doting and tolerance, "Come, let's go downstairs to bandage your hand, don't disturb the fetus. Be good, don't make trouble."

As he said this, he stretched out his hand and rubbed Ling Jing's head out of habit.

unexpectedly.

"Bah!" She laughed so hard that she spat at him. "Shangguan Xun, why do you make me so sick? How blind are you? I'm making a fuss? Hahahaha, I'm making a fuss?!"

hehe……

hehe!

What a thoughtful person.

Ling Jing stared at him intently, as if she wanted to see through his bones and blood, and pierce his heart!

She met him when she was six years old.

Until now, it has been a full ten years!

Those days when we grew up together.

Those thrilling days that followed.

Are all those vows made under the moonlight and flowers bullshit?

What's that look in his eyes now, sadness? Pain?

She was blind and her heart was blinded by greed!

Suddenly, a sharp pain came from her stomach, and Ling Jing's face turned pale with pain. She didn't even have the strength to hold on to Ling Yanran.

A miscarriage?!

She has always been in good physical condition and her pregnancy was stable.

But now it was so powerful that she could hardly stand. There was no reason for her to be so careful... Suddenly, she had a bad premonition and a chill crept up in her heart.

No.

She took deep breaths, trying to stabilize the heat that kept flowing down.

The baby had been in her belly for seven months, it was her child!

Baby, mother will protect you, mother will take you away, mother will take you away!

You hold on!

It took Ling Yanran a while to recover after she was free.

Throwing herself into Shangguan Xun's arms, "Brother Xun... Third sister wanted to strangle me to death... I was so scared just now. I thought I was going to die..."

"Don't be afraid. Ajing won't do that. I will protect you in the future." The man comforted softly.

In the whole room, Zhen Mi was the only one who noticed that her daughter was rolling on the ground in pain.

"Jing'er!! Jing'er, hold on, I'll carry you to find a doctor right now!"

"If you want to leave, it may not be that easy!" Li sneered.

Surrounded by several sturdy maids, she saw that Ling Jing was breathing in more than she was breathing out.

Zhen Mi's eyes turned red, and she tried to hug and drag her out like a madman.

"Why!! Why do you want to bully us mother and daughter like this, bully my Jing'er like this!! " She said with tears in her eyes, "Li Qiong!! You hate me, come and beat me up if you want to kill me!! Jing'er's last name is Ling, and she has Ling Sheng's blood flowing in her body!!"

"Who knows? You were brought up by the master from a brothel. Who knows if you and Ling Jing are the same, both liking the bastards of wild men?"

"Aunt!" Shangguan Xun couldn't stand it.

He wanted to come over to check on Ling Jing's condition, but was timidly stopped by Ling Yanran.

"Brother Xun, I'm afraid... please don't leave me..."

"Mr. Shangguan, although you are the only son of the Prime Minister and are extremely noble, even though you are noble, it is not reasonable for you to just say that you like Yanran and then immediately turn around to help your ex-lover and hurt Yanran's heart, right?"

Shangguan Xun said with some sorrow, "Aunt, why do you have to kill so many people like this!"

Without waiting for Li to answer.

"Master Shangguan, someone from the Prime Minister's Mansion has come to ask you to return home immediately. They said that the Prime Minister has suddenly suffered a relapse of his old illness and is in a very bad condition!"

"Madam, a letter from the master of the frontier!"

Two reporting maids came running in, and two voices rang out almost at the same time.

Shangguan Xun didn't leave, Li had already finished reading the letter. After a while, she sighed.

"Forget it, since the master said that Ling Jing should give birth to the baby. What are you still standing there for? Go and get the doctor!"

Soon the doctor came, but it was not convenient for Shangguan Xun, a man from outside, to come. The doctor was relieved and left immediately.

As soon as Shangguan Xun left, the doctor came out.

"Madam, your young lady's condition is very critical and she is showing signs of premature birth. However, if we try our best, we may be able to keep both mother and child safe."

"Young lady? Doctor, you are mistaken. This is just a shameless slave who hooked up with a servant in the mansion and gave birth to an illegitimate child. How could there be a young lady in our mansion who would do such a thing? Doctor, you are maliciously slandering and fabricating the reputation of our general's mansion!"

The doctor was stunned, then realized something and broke out in a cold sweat.

Who dares to mess with the powerful?

"I am short-sighted and made a mistake. My medical skills are not good enough, so I will take my leave now."

"Come here, take the consultation fee and send the doctor." Li sighed again, "Alas, although it was a servant who did such a shameless thing, it is still two lives. I have no choice but to ask you, the doctor, to see if you can save them. It's a pity that this slave and her son are destined to die, Amitabha."

After the doctor left, Li sneered and walked into the house.

Zhen Mi had been restrained by several maids. Ling Jing was bleeding heavily from her lower body and was unconscious.

"Madam, what should we do?" asked the maid.

Li was very satisfied with what he saw now.

"Zhen Mi, ah Zhen Mi, what does it matter if you are beautiful? What does it matter if you are favored by the master? Aren't you still in my hands?"

Zhen Mi sobbed with her mouth blocked, tears streaming down her face as she looked at Ling Jing lying on the bed.

"Cry? Aren't you always so noble? You are such an unattainable white lotus. Today I will let you watch your daughter being tortured to death in front of you! Wake up the little bitch!"

After drinking a basin of ice water, Ling Jing on the bed snorted softly and frowned.

Her stomach was still in waves of severe pain, and she could feel something pouring out of her lower body, as if something was about to flow out of her body completely, and she was tied to the bed.

Her unable to move body trembled in despair.

child……

Li didn't take them seriously at all.

"Beat me. I'm afraid a seven-month-old baby will cry after being beaten. However, she probably won't have the chance to cry. Zhen Mi, in order to get rid of the bastard in your daughter's belly, I spent a lot of effort to get a colorless and odorless abortion incense. The incense comes from the mysterious southern border. It is said that even a full-term baby can be turned into blood and water... Hahaha, not bad. Do you finally understand? My beating you today is just a cover. I lit the abortion incense in the hall a long time ago. Your daughter is cunning and suspicious, smart and cautious. After seeing you, her own mother, being beaten, how could she notice that the colorless and odorless abortion incense was lit in the room?"

“Wuwuwu…” Zhen Mi twisted her body desperately.

"Are you talking about the master? Ha, Zhen Mi, you are not as naive as your shameless daughter, are you? At your age, you still don't know what kind of stuff men are? The master's letter said that he wanted me to get rid of you. I just tricked Shangguan Xun, do you take it seriously? Don't believe it? You really won't cry until you see the coffin. The letter is right here, take a look, it's black and white on the paper! Oh, I can't stand it."

"Wuwuwu..." Zhen Mi was heartbroken when she saw those words clearly.

At the same time, whip after whip hit Ling Jing's stomach.

Ling Jing felt a chill in her heart and smiled miserably.

She was afraid that Zhen Mi would be sad, so she didn't scream out loud.

Of course she also heard what Li said.

Ha ha ha ha!

Daddy... Daddy! Is this the daddy she has loved and respected for sixteen years?

She thought the Ling Mansion was her own home, and she usually didn't care about Li's little actions. Is this the consequence of not caring?

If it was a stranger, how could he let her let down her guard and end up in this situation!

family……

Hehe, family!

Before losing the last bit of consciousness.

I wish I, Ling Jing, could turn into a demon!

"Dead?" Li suddenly felt bored, the child hadn't even been aborted.

"Yes, ma'am."

Li waved her hands in disgust, "Throw it to the mass grave outside the city. It's really unlucky. I have to keep it secret and deal with the aftermath. If others knew that such a little hoof had appeared in our Ling Mansion, I'm afraid Yanran and the others' reputation would be affected."

"Mom, she hurt us so badly, there's no reason to throw her away so easily even if she's dead." Ling Yanran suddenly walked in.

"Then do whatever you want with it. Just remember to do it cleanly and throw it far away."

Over there, Zhen Mi had already fainted from the pain.

"As for that bitch Zhen Mi, drag her out for me."

After the group left, only Ling Yanran was left.

"Pah, pah~" twice, the dagger cut Ling Jing's tendons. "Good skills? High comprehension? Daddy likes you?" Two more pats, cutting the tendons of the feet, "Now, hahahaha!"

Ling Yanran slashed her body like a madman.

His eyes finally fell on her face.

The dagger in his hand snapped several times.

"I'll let you seduce Brother Xun with this face! I'll let you seduce him again, again!!"

Ling Yanran had no idea that this face, which was so horribly destroyed by her, would become the nightmare of her life...

Neither can I live nor can I die!
