Chapter 525 Spoiled and Willful Wife VS Cowardly and Fearful Husband 17
Jiang Zhiyi's hand was suspended in mid-air.
Looking at the bright red mark on Junyu's face, she suddenly realized that she might have been too impulsive just now.
Things might not be as she thought...
But now that the fight has already begun, what else can we do?
Her displeasure did not diminish.
After thinking for a moment, Jiang Zhiyi pretended to be aggrieved, and her eyes instantly welled up with tears.
She turned to leave, but Junyu grabbed her wrist.
"Let go of me!" she said impatiently, trying to shake him off.
Jun Yu's expression was also not good at this moment, his eyes were deep and dark, clearly hiding anger.
Although Jiang Zhiyi looked angry, a sense of unease rose in her heart as she looked at his suddenly gloomy face, worried that he might do something to her. "Let go, I'll hit you if I want! What do you want?"
She looked up at him directly, "You don't mean to fight back, do you?"
Seeing her being so unreasonable, Jun Yu swallowed hard, then suddenly pulled her into his arms.
Jiang Zhiyi slammed into his hard chest, struggling and punching him, yelling, "What's wrong with you! Let me go!"
“I should be the one asking that.” Jun Yu grabbed her wildly swinging wrist. “You hit me first, and now you’re acting all wronged?”
He looked at her reddened eyes.
"Why can't I suffer?" Jiang Zhiyi raised her head. "You have so many beautiful women hiding in your household, and you kept it from me. You've had beauties playing music with you since you were little... I'm being kind by not beating you to death!"
Before she could finish speaking, he suddenly grabbed her chin, forcing her to look into his deep eyes.
Junyu calmed down and tried to ignore the stinging pain on his face.
It seems she misunderstood what she had just said.
He explained in a deep voice, “The Jun family controls half of the entertainment venues in Jiangnan, and has trained secret guards since childhood… This is a secret of the Jun family. Those courtesans are merely pawns used by the Jun family, and have no connection with me whatsoever. Before you, I had never…”
“Never what?” Jiang Zhiyi turned her face away. “Anyway, I don’t believe a single word you say.”
She struggled to push him away, but Junyu clasped her hands behind her back.
His warm breath brushed against her face, and his tone left no room for doubt: "Don't believe me? Then I'll show you clearly."
Before he could finish speaking, Junyu suddenly picked her up and strode toward the study.
In her panic, Jiang Zhiyi could only cling tightly to his clothes.
After entering the study, he reached into a hidden compartment on the wall and took out a yellowed book.
The densely written text records the details of the Jun family's training of secret guards over the decades, even clearly indicating when a certain songstress contracted an illness and when she recovered.
"Do you see clearly now? You've misunderstood." Jun Yu placed the ledger on the table. "You..."
His voice suddenly stopped, and he swallowed back the rest of his words.
Jiang Zhiyi knew that she had indeed misunderstood him, but she had no intention of backing down at this moment.
"Okay." She bit her lower lip. "I'm going back to my room now."
She turned and left.
Junyu stood there, not chasing after her for the time being, but just watching her departing figure, pondering something in his mind.
Jiang Zhiyi is not usually such an easily agitated person. Her actions just now were probably unintentional; she simply couldn't control herself for a moment.
But... there must be a reason for this.
He stroked the newly made jade pendant in his hand, and suddenly understood something.
Throughout their long marriage, he has always respected her wishes and has never forced her to consummate the marriage.
The "disdain" she usually showed towards herself was probably not genuine; it was just out of a young woman's modesty and embarrassment.
It was probably because of this incident that she developed a rift in her heart—mistakenly believing that he was having affairs and was unwilling to touch her.
Perhaps it's time to consummate the marriage and break this deadlock.
