Su Yujiao was completely enraged. Ignoring her own wounds, she got out of bed and attacked Chen Yunniang's face, scratching her face until it was covered in scratches.
What a slut! Did you think she would just swallow her anger like that?
Did you think she still cared about Lu Ziqian's opinion?
"Ah...ah...my face..."
Chen Yunniang screamed wildly, terrified by Su Yujiao's outburst.
She doesn't want to be disfigured; who would want her if she were disfigured?
Lu Ziqian rushed in upon hearing the commotion and saw Su Yujiao's fierce scene, pinning someone to the ground and beating them until they were powerless to resist.
"Su Yujiao, what are you doing?"
"Stop it! You're crazy!"
He angrily shoved the person away and couldn't help but shout, "Yunniang came to apologize. If you don't accept it, fine, but you actually hit her?"
Su Yujiao stared into the man's fiery eyes: "I hit you, so what if you dare to divorce me?"
"..."
Lu Ziqian choked. Why did he feel that Su Yujiao was deliberately provoking him and couldn't wait to leave him?
"Ziqian, Jiaojiao didn't do it on purpose. I fell by accident, and she... she was helping me up."
"Stop acting, it's disgusting."
Chen Yunniang's face turned pale, and she deliberately hid in Lu Ziqian's arms, pressing very close: "I... Waaah..."
He choked up and couldn't speak.
"Su Yujiao, you're a complete madwoman, vicious and narrow-minded!"
Looking at the man with his eyes wide with anger and listening to his evaluation of her, Su Yujiao gave a bleak smile on her pale face.
Remembering how Xiao Tao had said he had fiercely protected his wife, crippled Wang Heng, and destroyed the second wife's property, she was shamefully tempted and felt there was still room for reconciliation between them.
Now look at him, hugging another woman and calling her a vicious, crazy woman.
She felt that her previous attraction to him was foolish.
Su Yujiao took a deep breath and tried to calm herself down.
It's okay. It's just that his heart, which he tore apart, is now even more shattered, but the outer layer of ice has become even stronger.
She turned her head away, refusing to look at them, as if utterly disheartened: "Get out."
Chen Yunniang was unwilling to accept this. She had come all this way, but not only did she not gain any advantage, she also suffered a great loss. She couldn't swallow this insult.
Her face may be ruined, but she will never let Su Yujiao go.
Chen Yunniang gripped Lu Ziqian's sleeve tightly, her eyelashes trembling as tears streamed down her face, her voice choked with sobs: "Ziqian, should I not have come? I really just wanted to apologize, and I didn't want you to argue because of me."
Lu Ziqian helped her up, subtly shielding her behind him, his gaze meeting Su Yujiao's with intense anger and warning.
"Su Yujiao, stop being unreasonable."
“Yunniang didn’t do it on purpose, and she has already apologized to you. Let’s just let this matter go, and no one is allowed to mention it again.”
Su Yujiao laughed sarcastically: "You're just going to let it go like that?"
She was tricked by Chen Yunniang and almost died at Wang Heng's hands, but now it's her fault for being unreasonable, and it all ended with him casually saying "forget it".
She looked at him quietly and asked in a calm tone, "Lu Ziqian, you defended her in front of me, but did you ever consider me your wife?"
"Since you love her so much, why don't you divorce me?"
"Don't you know that what she wants most is the title of General's wife?"
Lu Ziqian pursed his lips tightly, his face extremely pale.
Su Yujiao didn't care at all. Instead, she stared at Chen Yunniang and smiled sarcastically: "Chen Yunniang, you saw it too. It's him who doesn't want a divorce. It's not me who's clinging to him."
Why won't he give you a formal title? Is it because he doesn't love you that much?
Chen Yunniang's face turned ashen with anger. She stared intently at Su Yujiao's mocking face, her palms clenching until they bled, yet she felt no pain.
"You shouldn't be focusing your attention on me; you should be thinking about how to get him to marry you."
"Xiao Tao, see the guest out!"
Hearing the commotion inside, Xiao Tao was so angry she felt like her lungs were about to explode. Now, hearing her mistress's instructions, she couldn't bear it for even a moment longer.
He rushed in and forcefully grabbed Chen Yunniang by the collar, pulling her out.
"Get lost, you shameless vixen."
"You're even taking your lewdness to other people's homes, how despicable!"
Mo Shu and Mo Hua watched coldly, without intervening.
Su Yujiao looked at the man's ashen face and smiled sarcastically: "Why don't you hurry up and chase after your little lover? I've bullied her, and she needs your company right now."
Looking at the woman's mocking expression, Lu Ziqian suddenly realized that she had really changed.
She seems to really not care about him anymore, and she's even too lazy to pretend anymore.
In the past, even if she suffered a great injustice, she would never have given up and tried to drive him away.
She would carefully maintain her image as a gentle and obedient wife in front of him.
Does she really not care about him anymore?
Does she really want a divorce?
Realizing this, Lu Ziqian suddenly became uncontrollably irritable.
"snort."
The man left in a huff.
Mo Shu outside the door immediately followed.
"Is your injury healed?"
"Your subordinate is out of danger."
"During my absence, did the second wife's family come to cause trouble?"
Mo Shu answered truthfully: "No."
"only……"
"Speak your mind."
Mo Shu hesitated for a moment. In fact, since his master hadn't asked about it, he could have chosen not to say anything.
But he still felt it necessary to say it, perhaps so that his master would realize the seriousness of the matter.
"After you left, the young mistress instructed Xiaotao to prepare a contraceptive soup."
"I saw the young mistress drink it with my own eyes."
Lu Ziqian suddenly stopped and turned back to look at Mo Shu in surprise, seemingly incredulous.
She actually drank the contraceptive soup on her own?
If last time it was a ploy to lure the prey into a trap, what is it this time?
She used to cry, beg, and plead for a child, but what happened to her now?
The man remained silent for a long time before saying, "Keep watching."
He wanted to see if she was truly determined not to want his child.
Perhaps this was just a fit of pique, after all, that kind of thing had just happened, and she had even taken that kind of drug.
Lu Ziqian unconsciously started looking for reasons to justify Su Yujiao's behavior this time.
The next day, Lu Ziqian went to the Jing'an Marquis's residence again, and the two sides reached an agreement to pin the blame on Chen Yaozu.
Furthermore, the Marquis's mansion dared not pursue the matter of Lu Ziqian crippling Wang Heng.
Otherwise, Lu Ziqian would expose Wang Heng's secret release of death row inmates, and the entire Marquis's mansion would suffer as a result.
Moreover, it was Wang Heng who provoked them first, so the Marquis's mansion had no grounds for complaint.
Lu Ziqian didn't push people to the brink of death, otherwise the Marquis's Mansion would have chosen to fight the General's Mansion to the death.
But he wouldn't let the Marquis's family off easily; he wouldn't let them bleed without venting his anger.
The Marquis's family immediately understood and secretly sent Su Yujiao a lot of gold and silver jewelry.
However, the Marquis's family must investigate the matter of Lu Youcai killing the concubine of the Marquis's mansion.
After all, the news had already spread, and if they didn't get an explanation, the Marquis's mansion would lose face.
Marquis Jing'an asked Lu Ziqian for his opinion, fearing that he might offend him again.
Lu Ziqian originally intended to teach the second wife a lesson, so he naturally wouldn't interfere.
