Chapter 80: Pretty Widow 2: The Beautiful Widow Who Kills Her Husband
The car stopped in front of a villa.
The car door was opened by the bodyguard. Wu Lan just got out of the car and saw two servants walking towards him quickly.
"Madam, you are back."
The servants should have known what happened at the wedding, and were not surprised by the bloodstains on Wu Lan's skirt. They just asked him to go into the house quickly to avoid catching a cold.
"Madam, your and your husband's room is on the second floor. Please follow me."
The atmosphere in the villa was depressing, and sadness was floating in the air.
The servants were always paying attention to Wu Lan's mood. Looking at this pale and pretty little face, they couldn't help but feel a little pity and sympathy in their hearts.
Although they had never met before, anyone would feel sorry for Wu Lan because her husband had an accident right after she got married.
Wu Lan kept his head down and didn't say anything until the servant stopped, then he raised his head.
The servant opened the door and said respectfully, "Your luggage is already inside, but since you haven't told us to, we can't pack it for you. If you need anything, please let us know."
"You can take a shower and change your clothes first. Dinner is ready and kept warm."
"Thank you."
The girl's voice trembled slightly. The servant was stunned for a moment, and when he wanted to say something else, the door was closed.
This bedroom is quite large, with a separate bathroom and a dressing room. The overall style of the room is rather calm, with dark wood furniture throughout.
Both the curtains and the bed are dark in color, and there are no fancy decorations in the room.
Just like the male owner of this room, he gives people a calm and majestic, yet difficult to approach and alienated feeling.
Although no one else was present, Wu Lan still felt a little uncomfortable. He looked around the room, then down at the dried blood on his wedding dress. He didn't dare walk around for fear of dirtying the room.
After taking off my pointed high heels, I finally felt much more comfortable.
This was his first time wearing high heels. Fortunately, the heels were not high enough, so he was a little shaky when walking, but he didn't fall.
Unable to find slippers in the room, Wu Lan had to walk barefoot on the wooden floor, lifting up the hem of her wedding dress that was dragging on the ground, revealing a pair of fair and well-proportioned calves.
His clenched hands finally opened, and his palms opened, revealing a men's wedding ring.
Because the discovery was so sudden, Wu Lan's hands were clenched into fists, and she only now realized that the ring had been brought back by him.
Carefully placing the ring on the table, Wu Lan picked up her skirt again and tiptoed around the room, basically getting a feel for the structure of the room.
The luggage the servant mentioned was placed in the cloakroom.
Wu Lan took out two pieces of clothes and walked into the bathroom silently.
Hearing the sound of water inside, Shen Yulin's eyes darkened.
He didn't understand why he was following Wu Lan, nor did he know why no one else could see him.
After thinking for a while, Shen Yulin walked to the cloakroom and stood in front of the full-length mirror.
The mirror doesn't reflect him.
Sure enough, he really died.
Shen Yulin didn't have a strong reaction to this news. He had long known that someone was trying to kill him, but he didn't expect to die in this way.
Wu Lan, his newlywed wife was probably terrified.
Shui Lingling's little face had lost its color and was pale. Her long, raven-black eyelashes were trembling slightly, and her eyes were blank, obviously frightened.
His thin shoulders looked frail, and even with a coat on he still looked frail, as if he would fall down with a gust of wind.
Such a little girl who needed protection was facing death so directly. Shen Yulin suddenly felt a little uncomfortable.
It was the first time I met Wu Lan today, but I didn't expect that this girl would always occupy my mind.
If he had known this, he should have met Wu Lan earlier.
Although this wedding was not his wish, he agreed to marry Wu Lan because Qi Mingyi used the agreement he had made with his father in earlier years to ask him to marry.
He had never fallen in love with anyone in his life and had planned to remain single. Initially, he did not agree to Qi Mingyi's request, but later, while searching through his father's belongings, he discovered his father's last words, hoping that he would get married.
He knew exactly why Qi Mingyi came to him at this time. The Qi family had recently encountered many problems and needed the Shen family's help to resolve them, which was why they brought up the matter of marriage again.
Thinking of his father's last words, Shen Yulin agreed to Qi Mingyi's request and married Qi Mingyi's adopted little daughter, Wu Lan.
But he didn't really plan to become husband and wife with Wu Lan.
It was just a formality of marriage. Once Qi's troubles were resolved, he would divorce Wu Lan.
Because it was just a formal marriage, he even prepared a separate room for Wu Lan, intending to get along with her respectfully and never touch Wu Lan.
But today's incident happened too suddenly. The servant probably forgot his instructions for a moment and took Wu Lan directly into his bedroom.
Thinking of this, Shen Yulin's gaze fell on the open suitcase on the ground, and he casually glanced at the clothes inside.
Looking at these clothes that were obviously girls', his face froze and he quickly walked out of the cloakroom.
As I walked out, the bathroom door was opened.
A thin girl walked out of the foggy bathroom. The hot water gave her fair face a beautiful pink hue. Her black eyes were wet, and the corners of her eyes were unnaturally red, as if she had been crying.
He was wearing a simple solid-colored T-shirt on his upper body and light blue shorts underneath. There were a few small water droplets hanging on his white and slender legs, which made people's eyes fall on them.
The black hair that was originally tied up has now become very wet, and even after wiping it twice, water is still dripping from the ends of the hair.
When the girl came out, water droplets fell on the floor, making it a little wet.
Shen Yulin looked at the water stains on the floor, his handsome brows furrowed, and his gaze lingered on the two bare feet for several seconds.
"The ground is wet, you'll fall."
As soon as she finished speaking, Wu Lan's feet slipped and her body swayed, and she was about to fall down in the next second.
Shen Yulin walked over quickly reflexively and gently supported Wu Lan's waist.
A slightly cool touch appeared at the waist. Wu Lan quickly steadied herself and held onto the table next to her to avoid falling.
2720【Be careful.】
Wu Lan naturally brushed off the chill on his waist. He was still angry. Don't think that he will easily forgive it just because 2720 helped him.
Seeing the little boy pout, 2720 paused and then skillfully began to admit his mistake: "I really thought that bottle of water was for removing makeup. I didn't mean to hurt you."
【sorry. 】
Wu Lan didn't say anything. He wiped his wet hair with a towel unhappily. His soft white face puffed up slightly, and he was still very angry.
Just before taking a shower, he followed 2720's instructions to remove his makeup. But for some reason, he couldn't get his eyeliner off, so he had to ask 2720 for help.
But 2720 was so rough that he rubbed the corners of his eyes red, but the eyeliner was still very strong. Finally, I took a look at the so-called makeup remover and found that the bottle said "mouthwash" in a foreign language.
Wu Lan felt that 2720 was setting up a trap and deliberately deceiving him.
He asked gloomily, "Those words were as big as mouthwash, did you really not see them?"
[I was so focused on you at the time that I didn't notice the bottle.] 2720 paused, then said, [I'm sorry, please be magnanimous and forgive me this time.]
【I promise not to make the same mistake again, Master Wu.】
Wu Lan discovered that 2720 was now very good at apologizing. She didn't know where he learned it from, but her anger subsided as she listened to him.
Lord Wu, who was easy to appease, put on a stern face, nodded reluctantly, and forgave the reckless 2720.
【Okay, this won’t happen again.】
After drying her hair until it was half dry, Wu Lan began to look for a hair dryer, muttering to herself: Where is the hair dryer? Where is the hair dryer?
Suddenly, he saw a cabinet not far away being opened.
Thinking that 2720 was coaxing him to help him find the hair dryer, Wu Lan picked up the hair dryer naturally and was not surprised at all.
Instead, Shen Yulin was stunned. He didn't expect that he could actually open the cabinet.
Is it possible to touch entities after becoming a ghost?
Seeing this, he tried again to open the cabinet, but failed.
After trying several times, Shen Yulin found that this was a probabilistic event and not every time would be successful.
Wu Lan blew her hair dry and combed it smooth with a comb not very skillfully.
Since Wu Lan had to dress up as a woman, his hair was a little long. He had never had long hair before, so he was a little uncomfortable with it.
He looked at himself in the mirror and asked, "System, do I look like a girl?"
2720 [Like, very much like the innocent little sister next door.]
After a pause, the system said, "But a pure girl wouldn't wear such short shorts."
Wu Lan looked down at her pants and found that they were indeed a little short, almost sticking to her legs.
He thought about it and changed into a pair of conservative loose trousers.
How about this?
2720【Now she is a very pure little sister.】
Wu Lan was satisfied.
Shen Yulin was also very satisfied with Wu Lan wearing trousers.
In addition to the maid, there is also an elderly housekeeper and some hot-blooded young bodyguards in this house, so it is safer to wear conservative trousers.
Wu Lan lingered in the room for a long time, and only went downstairs to have dinner after he had tidied himself up.
Due to a series of events that happened today, Wu Lan's appetite was not very good. After taking a few bites, she could not eat anymore.
Shen Yulin, who was standing by, frowned again.
When he was protecting the person behind him today, he accidentally hugged Wu Lan and found that the little guy was light and didn't weigh much. He looked like he was malnourished.
Now seeing how much Wu Lan eats, he finally understands why she is so thin.
"Ma'am, please eat more."
The servant's words made Shen Yulin's brows relax for a moment. After watching Wu Lan drink some of the chicken soup, he said to the servant, "Let's continue making chicken soup tomorrow, or change to another nutritious soup."
When the servant didn't respond, he remembered that he was dead.
Suddenly, Shen Yulin felt a little depressed.
*
At night, Wu Lan lay alone on the big bed, tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep.
2720【What are you thinking about?】
Wu Lan pursed her lips, rolled up the quilt into a ball and held it in her arms.
"I'm thinking about today." He said, "I'm still thinking about how to complete the task. I think it's so difficult."
2720 also understood that this mission was extremely difficult for Wu Lan. Especially after Shen Yulin's death, the mission's difficulty skyrocketed.
[Don't think about it for now, go to sleep. You're already very tired today, aren't you?]
Wu Lan yawned again, and crystal tears overflowed from the corners of her eyes. She didn't have time to wipe them away, and they slid down from the corners of her eyes and disappeared into her hair.
Shen Yulin, who had just tried to leave the room but failed, turned around and saw Wu Lan crying.
After becoming a spirit, his night vision became even better than before, and he could clearly see the girl on the bed silently shedding tears.
Sure enough, I scared people today.
Shen Yulin couldn't help but walk to the bedside, lowering his eyes and silently looking at his fragile new wife.
Seeing Wu Lan's mouth move slightly, he subconsciously bent down to listen.
"...This bed is so big, can you sleep with me?"
