The two were close, and she was completely enveloped in his black mist. Humiliating words, mixed with the cold wind, entered her ears. Xie Rongyue's face turned pale instantly, and she looked at him sideways, her eyes reddening.
Wang Hezhan looked at her ashamed and indignant eyes, but his expression remained unmoved.
He calmly pulled her behind him, looked down at Lu Yu who was spitting blood, and chuckled.
"Does Young Master Lu intend to pay his respects to Master Chen?"
Lu Yu was shot in the chest with an arrow, and his face was terribly pale.
He stood up, one hand covering the wound on his chest, the other hand supporting himself against the door of the wine shop. Blood flowed down his fingertips, soaking his blue robe.
Xie Rongyue glanced at it, her heart breaking.
But she knew that if she dared to show even the slightest concern for Lu Yu, he would go even crazier.
"Why did you injure someone, sir?"
Wang Hezhan raised an eyebrow and smiled, "What if I kill you?"
"Since Yan Er ascended the throne, the young masters of the powerful families in Yandu have become so arrogant and disregard human life—"
Before he could finish speaking, his neck was suddenly grabbed, and with a loud crash, the tables and chairs in the tavern shattered into pieces. He was thrown to the ground, spitting out a large pool of blood.
Xie Rongyue covered her mouth and gasped, tears welling up in her eyes, unable to utter a single word.
"Good heavens, what are you doing? My wine is going to be smashed!"
The proprietress came out, twisting her body, holding a handkerchief in her hand, and angrily started to curse with her hands on her hips.
"Go outside and fight, this is my little shop---"
Before he could finish speaking, a gold ingot came flying at him.
The proprietress, her eyes lighting up at the sight of money, smiled and said, "Continue, please continue."
This small border town has all sorts of people. Trade between the Western Regions and the Central Plains is very close, and fights and disturbances happen every two or three days, so it's nothing unusual.
People around were pointing and watching the show.
Xie Rongyue couldn't stand this absurd display of her talents in public; she felt only humiliation and shame.
The door was slammed shut by the guards, blocking the view from outside.
The light inside the room dimmed.
Wang Hezhan slowly walked up to Lu Yu, placed one foot on the arrow-pierced chest, and smiled faintly.
“A son of a concubine from the Lu family of Fanyang speaks very boldly.”
He bent down and crushed it several times with extreme cruelty.
"Old Master Lu is seriously ill. As his son and grandson, instead of taking good care of him, you have the mind to indulge in romance and poetry."
Blood was gushing from Lu Yu's mouth, and the pain from being stomped on so hard made his face contort.
Xie Rongyue looked at Lu Yu, who was in excruciating pain. The suffocating pain mixed with hatred was about to devour her. Her head tilted to the side and she fainted on the ground.
Hearing the noise, Wang Hezhan turned around and saw her slumped limply by the door. His eyes darkened.
He withdrew his foot, walked over, squatted down, and pinched her cheeks, shaking them gently.
"stand up."
Xie Rongyue remained motionless, no matter how much he shook her.
Wang Hezhan looked at her coldly, remained silent for a while, and then picked her up horizontally.
He glanced sideways at Lu Yu, who was about to faint, and gave instructions to the person behind him.
"Take Young Master Lu to the clinic."
"yes."
Wang Hezhan has a villa in Qingyang, built by a lake, with willows planted along the embankment. The scenery is extremely elegant, making it a good place to compose poetry and enjoy the moon.
The interior decoration was quite elegant, with a table, a chair, and a book. Landscape paintings hung on the wall, and red plum blossoms were inserted in a bone china vase in front of the table, while incense burned gently in the incense burner.
Xie Rongyue smelled the familiar scent of agarwood and elm, and kept her eyes closed, not daring to open them.
With a thud, her soft body was thrown onto the bed. She winced in pain, her breathing changing slightly.
Wang Hezhan sat by the bed and noticed her change, speaking softly.
"Open your eyes."
The person on the bed remained motionless. He raised an eyebrow and slowly slipped his hand inside her dress to tease her.
As the rough fingertips caressed her soft flesh, she trembled uncontrollably.
They knew they had been exposed.
Xie Rongyue suppressed her discomfort and opened her eyes shakily.
“Brother He Zhan”.
She reached out her fair hand to tug at his robe, calling his name in a sweet, cloying voice.
Seeing her like this, Wang Hezhan suppressed his fierce aura and smiled.
"Does Lu Yu know how horny you are in bed?"
Xie Rongyue's back stiffened slightly, and a sense of humiliation spread from the bottom of her heart to every part of her body.
She pretended not to notice the disdain in his words and offered a few words of explanation in a soft voice.
Wang Hezhan didn't say anything, but sat on the edge of the bed, casually looking at her body.
A silence hung in the air.
Xie Rongyue had no idea what kind of crazy idea he was thinking. She covered the wound on her neck and slowly sat up.
"My neck hurts so much, do you have any ointment for it?"
She reached out and wrapped her arm around his, her tone soft and coquettish.
The soft, boneless beauty rubbed against him.
Wang Hezhan calmed down, noticed the faint traces of blood on her fair neck, got up, took a porcelain bottle, and came over to apply medicine to her.
A cool, refreshing sensation spread across the wound, and Xie Rongyue felt less pain and breathed a sigh of relief.
Will this leave a scar?
"You're so delicate." He pinched her nose and said slowly, "Are you afraid no one will want you?"
Xie Rongyue hooked her arm around his neck and smiled ingratiatingly, "Brother He Zhan won't abandon me, will he?"
Wang Hezhan raised an eyebrow, but didn't hide anything from her.
"Yanwu doesn't like you. After I marry her, you should go to Xunyang in the north. I will arrange everything for you."
Xie Rongyue was startled, then overjoyed. Did he mean to end this illicit relationship with her?
She concealed her inner joy and asked hesitantly.
"Going to Xunyang?"
Wang Hezhan remembered the old man's warning and grumbled irritably.
"I will give you everything I promised. The prefect of Xunyang is Xie San's man. I will inform him. You will live a good life in Xunyang."
Xie Rongyue suddenly remembered his promise: "a thousand acres of fertile land" and "a gold and silver industry to rely on".
With money and power, she could stay away from him and no longer be at the mercy of others in Yandu, nor would she have to worry about her mistress giving her to the northern princes to consolidate her power.
She gripped her dress tightly with excitement, lowering her head to hide the smile in her eyes.
Seeing that she lowered her head and remained silent, Wang Hezhan paused for a moment, then spoke again.
"If you don't want to go, I'll take you back to Yandu---"
Before she could finish speaking, she suddenly hugged his waist and whispered.
"I'll go."
When Wang Hezhan heard that she was willing to go to Xunyang, his eyes darkened, and a strange sense of violence welled up in his heart.
He reached out and lifted her chin, his voice unfriendly.
"You really want to go?"
Xie Rongyue clung to his body and whispered sweetly, "Didn't you promise me that after you got married, you would give me gold, silver, and fertile land so I could leave Yandu?"
"I meant I'm tired of it."
His voice was cold, and his face was shrouded in gloom.
Xie Rongyue provoked him, "Brother He Zhan, are you reluctant to part with him?"
"---"
Wang Hezhan's expression darkened when she retorted with such a question.
He retorted sarcastically, "There are plenty of girls like you in Yandu."
After saying that, he scooped her up and took a bite.
"I've been playing with you for so long, I should be tired of you by now. It's the same if I find someone else to take care of me."
He uttered another sarcastic remark, then reached out and tore her clothes apart, burying himself inside her.
