Chapter 37 Insisting on Leaving the House
Her angry behavior made Mu Xingci slightly angry. He grabbed the woman's restless hands with both hands: "Yun Wansheng, if you want to make trouble, wait until your injury is healed before doing so. Do you think it's fun to make trouble like this?"
"Make trouble? Mu Xingci, people like you are not worth my anger. Please don't take yourself so seriously." Yun Wansheng stared at him with red eyes.
"What do you mean?"
"You are not mine, and I won't expect you to do anything for me. I naturally don't care what you think of me."
"Yun Wansheng, are you trying to distance yourself from me?"
"Yes! If you don't want to live a miserable life in the future, let me go immediately, then you can live a good life."
Mu Xingci's eyes were dark as he met the woman's gaze, which was like looking at an enemy. "You want to leave? That's impossible. If you dare to run away again, I won't be as easy to talk to you then as I am now. Don't wait until your grandfather lies dead in front of you before you realize what it means to regret your decision."
"I don't believe that a general like you dares to kill civilians at will. I'm not someone who can be scared." Yun Wansheng concluded that he was trying to scare her.
"Yun Wansheng, you are too naive. Before I became a general, did you know what kind of person I was?"
Mu Xingci narrowed his eyes slightly, and a sinister cold light hit the woman's disdainful face.
"With your title of Mu Family Army, you are definitely a god-like existence in the hearts of the people of Shun Shang Country. You are definitely not a vicious person who kills people like crazy." It seems to be a compliment but it also contains contempt and disdain.
Mu Xingci was amused by her words: "You really think highly of me, but you are wrong about one thing.
The reason why the Mu family army has achieved its current status is not just by fighting a few tough battles. If we did not have a thundering approach, we would have been criticized by the civil servants in the court long ago.
Yun Wansheng, don't think too highly of the powerful people in the capital. They wouldn't be where they are today if they hadn't been stained with blood, and I am no exception.
Not to mention an ordinary citizen like your grandfather, even if he is an official, he will still die if he gets in my way.
On my hands is not only the blood of my enemies, but also the lives of people from all sides.
Yun Wansheng, I hate to see someone who betrays me live freely. If you try to escape, that would be tantamount to treason. Then I will kill your grandfather first to vent my anger."
Yun Wansheng listened to the man's words, which made her feel a little uncertain.
At this time, Wanchun came in holding clothes and said, "My Lord, I have brought Miss Yun's clothes."
"Change her clothes and wash her face and comb her hair." Mu Xingci said coldly, then sat on a chair beside him.
Wanchun obediently helped Yun Wansheng with her makeup and dressing. Soon, she was dressed beautifully and no longer looked as disheveled as before.
Mu Xingci saw the woman's beauty and felt a little admiration: "I will change the medicine for you." He said softly, and slowly moved her hand closer to him.
When Mu Xingci saw the wound on the woman's palm again, he couldn't help but feel a pang of pain in his heart.
He gently applied wound medicine to the woman on his hands, not daring to say a word, for fear that he would be distracted and hurt her again.
Yun Wansheng looked at his cautious look, as if he felt sorry for her, which made her chuckle in her heart. Who was this man showing this expression to? She was not as easy to fool as a three-year-old child.
"Okay! I'll have someone bring you some food." Mu Xingci said as he packed the medicine box.
"My Lord, I want to go back to the villa to recuperate." Yun Wansheng didn't want to be looked down upon here.
"It's better to recuperate here than over there. This way, I can take care of you at any time."
"I'm still used to having Wang Ma take care of me."
Mu Xingci looked at the woman's ungrateful expression and became arrogant: "Whatever you say, do you think I am willing to take care of you?" After saying this unhappily, he went out.
Just when Yun Wansheng thought it was time to go home after dinner, she waited and waited but no one came to notify her, so she had no choice but to get up and walk out.
Just as she was about to leave the room, she was stopped by the maid Wanchun: "Miss Yun, the Marquis has instructed that you cannot leave here until your injury is healed."
Yun Wansheng was stunned for a moment when she heard this: "Your Lord has already agreed to let me return to the villa. Didn't he tell you?"
"No, Miss Yun, please go back to your room and lie down." There was jealousy in Wanchun's eyes and his tone was cold.
She clearly heard in the outer room that the master agreed to let the woman return to the villa, but as soon as she came out, she asked her to serve her well and not to let the concubine leave.
When did his master become so spoiled with a woman? Was it because this concubine became beautiful?
When Yun Wansheng heard this, she didn't waste any more time talking to the maid and walked straight out, but she was stopped again. If she hadn't had the injury on her hand, she would have pushed the person away.
"Miss Yun, please don't embarrass me. If you leave like this, the Marquis will punish me later."
"You're all quite talkative, aren't you? I think you'll find a good excuse when the Marquis comes back. Get out of the way!" Yun Wansheng didn't feel sorry for them. She nudged them with her arm and walked forward.
Wanchun didn't expect that this mistress was so strong and spoke so directly, leaving her at a loss for how to respond.
"Miss Yun, don't go. If the Marquis comes back and doesn't see you, he will be angry again." Wanchun caught up and said anxiously.
"You're angry with me. You are his close maids. He won't do anything to you." Yun Wansheng continued walking with a mocking tone.
At this time, Zixia came towards her and asked, "Miss Yun, are you leaving?" The mockery in her eyes was not concealed.
Yun Wansheng gave her a look as if she was trash and walked past her.
Wanchun was about to chase after her, but Zixia held her back: "Why chase after her? It wasn't us who drove her away. The Marquis won't blame us." Zixia deliberately raised her voice so that the concubine could hear.
Yun Wansheng heard it but ignored it. This General's Mansion was not the place she should be, and their words could not make her angry.
After leaving the mansion, Yun Wansheng walked towards the villa. Because the sleeves of her clothes had small cuffs, her ugly bandaged hands were exposed to the public, attracting passers-by to stop and watch.
Just as she was passing a street, she suddenly saw a woman riding a horse towards her.
Yun Wansheng instinctively made way for her, but the woman stopped and said, "Isn't this Miss Yun? What's wrong with your hand?"
Yun Wansheng also recognized the person at this time: "It turned out to be Miss Song."
Today, Song Yaqing was dressed in a blue outfit, which made her look like a chivalrous lady at first glance. It was very different from her lady outfit yesterday, which made it almost impossible for her to recognize her.
Song Yaqing got off the horse and looked at her hands for a moment: "Miss Yun, what's wrong with you? Weren't you fine yesterday?"
"Uh! After you guys showed up yesterday, my cousin couldn't just ignore it, so he used family rules against me." Yun Wansheng didn't have time to think of other reasons, so she could only say this first.
Upon hearing this, Song Yaqing was happy but pretended to be embarrassed and said, "My Lord, you are too strict in your work."
"Yes! Miss Song, I have something else to do, so I'll leave first." Yun Wansheng raised the corner of his mouth slightly and walked past her.
