Chapter 481
Shen Jun's legs went weak, and he slumped back into his chair. Zheng Shi closed her eyes, not wanting to look at Yun Wan again.
Yun Wan pushed Yun Ruiyang away, crawled a few steps toward the two of them, and said in a trembling voice, "Father-in-law, Mother-in-law, your daughter-in-law... your daughter-in-law was just confused for a moment... your daughter-in-law only has the young master in her heart!"
Madam Zheng gave a bitter smile: "You're confused, you're confused about everything, when are you ever clear-headed? You can even do something like this... Madam Yun, you're really something."
After saying that, Madam Zheng looked at Shen Rang with heartache in her eyes; "Zirong, when did you find out about this?"
Shen Rang's expression remained unchanged: "It was also a coincidence. A few days ago, someone handed me a secret letter that clearly stated this matter. I sent people to investigate and confronted that person face to face. However, we had no evidence before, and only now do we know that it is true."
Hearing his words, Yun Ruiyang suddenly turned his head: "You tricked me?!"
His voice suddenly rose a lot, and the faint sound of a child crying could be heard from inside the room.
Madam Zheng raised her hand, signaling Zhou Mama to take the child out.
Upon hearing this devastating news, Madam Zheng looked utterly weary: "Yun, Zirong has never harmed you. Whether this matter is true or false can be determined simply by verifying your identity. However, the Marquis and your father are officials in the same court. If you do not wish to ruin the relationship between our two families, it would be best if you requested a divorce and severed ties with my family. In the future, we can keep to ourselves and leave it at that."
Zheng's face turned pale, and after she finished speaking, her momentum waned considerably.
Shen Jun looked at her, and after who knows how many years, a look of heartache appeared on his face again.
But Zheng didn't look at him; she was only focused on her son, her eyes filled with tears.
It's all her fault, it's all her fault!
It's her fault for not recognizing people well and not being able to distinguish between good and bad. Now that such a big joke has been made in the family, if word gets out, Yun Wan will certainly deserve to die, and Shen Rang will probably be implicated as well, becoming a laughing stock in everyone's mouth!
It's all her fault!
But Shen Rang didn't care at all. He sat there, and his expression didn't change at all from beginning to end.
He watched this farce with indifference, as if it had nothing to do with him.
Yun Wan's body went limp, and she collapsed to the ground.
Even if someone requests a divorce, there must be a reason. Given the current situation, she could not possibly shift the blame onto Shen Rang. The only option now is... for her to accept it herself.
If I had known this would happen, I would have listened to Shen Rang and left earlier, and I wouldn't have ended up like this now.
Yun Wan took a deep breath and was about to kneel up again when the child's cries grew louder and louder.
"Why is the Marquis's residence so lively? Have I missed something?"
Everyone subconsciously looked up and saw the Crown Prince, dressed in black, walking over with a smile. He bent his forearm and was holding the very child that he had just asked Zhou Mama to take out!
The crown prince was over thirty years old and had naturally been a father, but his way of holding a child was still a little clumsy, even less so than Shen Rang's.
Upon seeing the Crown Prince holding a child in his arms, even Shen Rang, who had previously remained uninvolved, could not contain himself and stood up.
This is his and Yunxi's child, and he will not allow anything to happen to this child.
At this moment, the atmosphere in the room quietly became tense, but Shen Jun hadn't reacted yet and stepped forward as usual: "Your Highness, what brings you here all of a sudden?"
The Crown Prince's gaze swept around the room, pausing briefly on Yun Wan before quickly shifting to Shen Jun: "I came here on a whim, and when I got outside I heard that something had happened to your Marquis's residence. I thought that you have served under me for so many years, and even if you haven't made any great contributions, you have certainly worked hard. It is only right that I come and uphold justice."
Hearing the Crown Prince's words, Shen Jun immediately felt that he had followed the right master and said gratefully, "Oh, thank you so much, Your Highness! It's just a small matter in the inner quarters, how could it trouble Your Highness!"
As he spoke, Shen Jun stepped forward, preparing to take the child from him: "Something came up at home, and the child kept crying, so I had someone take him out. I didn't expect to run into Your Highness like this. Your Highness has gone through so much trouble!"
"Hey, no rush."
The Crown Prince smiled and pushed his hand away: "It has been a long time since I have held such a small child, so my skills are a bit rusty, but I should still be able to handle it steadily. Your Excellency does not need to worry."
