Chapter 124: The End of Friendship
Mu Xingci stared at her for a while with a deep gaze, then wiped his face with his sleeve, silently put clothes on her, covered her with a quilt, and then sat on the edge of the bed.
"Yun Wansheng, don't I have even the slightest place in your heart?"
Yun Wansheng's watery eyes paused for a moment: "I've already said I don't like you."
"It seems that all of this was just my wishful thinking. I thought that even if you didn't like me, you would still have some feelings for me.
But today I have finally come to my senses. If a woman doesn't like a man, she will not like his child either. If she doesn't like a man, she would rather kill him than let that man be his father.
Don't use the excuse that you didn't want to be my concubine because I forced you to. If you really love this child, I don't believe that the identity of a concubine is more important than your own flesh and blood.
Since you hate me so much, I will let you go. From now on, we will be separated from each other and will never see each other again in this life."
"Thank you!" Yun Wansheng was heartbroken by the man's words. She did not say a word in defense, but only thanked him without any emotion, which was a mockery of the relationship between them.
"Yun Wansheng, I thought I was ruthless, but I didn't expect you to be even more ruthless than me. Even a tiger won't eat its own cubs, but you did it.
You are free now, but I think you will live in guilt for the rest of your life and you will never feel at peace." Mu Xingci said coldly.
"Don't bother with that. You can go now. We won't meet again." Yun Wansheng's voice became even colder.
Mu Xingci stood up and said, "I don't want to see a woman like you who is as vicious as a snake and scorpion again." After saying this in a cold voice, he strode out.
As soon as he left, Yun Wansheng cursed, "You're the fucking vicious one. You forced me to do all this. I don't feel guilty. If anyone should feel guilty, it's you."
She cried and cursed, then burst into tears again in sorrow and grief.
What she didn't know was that the man was standing outside the yard, listening to the woman crying and scolding herself. Mu Xingci closed her eyes, and the tears in the corners of her eyes turned into tears that flowed down her cheeks.
He didn't know how they had suddenly become enemies, all because of a child? A wife? A concubine? Three seemingly compatible identities, yet they couldn't work out between them.
The man stood in the courtyard under the moonlight for a long time, until the woman in the house stopped crying. Then he wiped the tears from his face and withdrew his gaze from the window with a heartbroken look.
"Yun Wansheng, goodbye!" He said resolutely, turned around and left this sad place.
He returned to the Governor's Mansion with a heavy heart. Gu Feicheng came up to him with an angry look on his face: "Xingci, I've found out everything. Guess who was behind this?"
"who?"
"Lu Ke!"
"The Lu family?" Mu Xingci was surprised. "Aren't they partners? Then why would Lu Ke do this?"
He didn't think that a man of his status could accept a pregnant woman, which was why he didn't doubt Lu Ke.
"I heard from his personal attendant that his master saw the commercial value of Miss Yun and wanted to use her business acumen to expand their Lu family.
In order to stabilize Yun Wansheng, Lu Ke chose to cooperate with her temporarily, and wait for an opportunity to take her into the Lu family mansion to make money for their Lu family.
But when he found out that you were having an affair with that woman, he was afraid that your old relationship would rekindle, so he secretly replaced the contraceptive pills. He thought that given your status, you would not want this child.
If the two of you split up over this matter, Lu Ke will be able to take advantage of the situation." Gu Feicheng said angrily.
After hearing what he said, Mu Xingci was filled with murderous intent: "Although his plan was inconsistent, it ended up being successful."
"Ah? What do you mean?" Gu Feicheng looked at him in confusion.
"Because that woman aborted the child, our relationship has broken down and we will never see each other again.
Tell me, was Lu Ke's plan very successful?" Mu Xingci smiled bitterly, feeling a pang of sourness in his heart.
"How could this happen? You asked her to give birth but she refused? This has never happened in other mansions." Gu Feicheng widened his eyes in disbelief.
"Because she didn't want to be my concubine, and I couldn't marry her, so... no, she wanted to give birth to the child. It was me who insisted on letting her enter the Marquis' Mansion as a concubine, so she hardened her heart and aborted the child." As she spoke, Mu Xingci's eyes became red again.
"You...what's going on with you two?"
"Feicheng, now that things have come to this, my fate with her is over. I don't even want a woman who doesn't like me."
"Alas! Things have already come to this, what else can you do? You should be more open-minded. There are plenty of beautiful women. Just forget her."
"Hmm!" Mu Xingci replied softly, then said harshly, "Gu Feicheng, go and gather a thousand soldiers. We will go to the Lu family now. I can't let my child die like this. I swear to avenge this great vengeance."
"Okay! I'll go right away." After saying that, Gu Feicheng went to check the troops.
Mu Xingci looked towards the door with a fierce look in his eyes: "Lu Ke, from tonight onwards, I will make sure your Lu family disappears completely from this Qizhou City."
At this moment, Lu Ke was anxiously waiting for his personal attendant in the room. He had been out for a whole day, but he had not come back to report any news. Even the other two had no news.
He also felt something vaguely, which made him even more uneasy. He told himself in his heart that nothing would happen, nothing would happen.
Just as he was about to send someone to inquire, he suddenly saw the housekeeper running in with a panicked look on his face: "Young Master, it's bad. Marquis Weiyuan and his soldiers have surrounded our Lu family. They are now waiting in the hall for you, the master, and the whole family to come over."
Lu Ke was shocked when he heard this: "Marquis Weiyuan? Isn't he in Dongqiang? How could he appear here?"
"I don't know about this kid either, go and take a look!"
Lu Kewei thought for a moment, then quickly walked towards the reception room.
When he hurriedly walked into the hall, he saw his family members kneeling on the ground, including his parents. When he looked up at the main seat, he was stunned.
Didn't they say Marquis Weiyuan was coming? Why was the person sitting in the seat of honor that Zhenjun General Mu Xinghan? Did he know something?
Frightened, he knelt down quickly and said, "I greet the General of the Zhen Army."
"Lu Ke, do you think that I, the general of the Zhenjun Army, am a useless person who can be played around with at will?" Mu Xingci said in a calm tone with a cold look in his eyes.
"I have never dared to think so. General Zhenjun, please don't misunderstand me." Lu Ke knelt on the ground humbly.
"Misunderstanding? Misunderstanding, wanting to take this woman for yourself and make her a slave for your Lu family to make money?"
When Mu Xingci thought of how this treacherous villain had framed Yun Wansheng and caused them to lose their beloved son, he couldn't help but stand up and kick the man out.
Lu Ke was kicked so hard that blood spurted out of his mouth and he felt a piercing pain in his chest. But before he could get up, someone stepped on his chest again, making it difficult for him to breathe, as if he would die in the next moment.
