Chen Qiu got married.
As the eldest daughter of the Shen family of the Great Yin Kingdom, she was promised to Ye Chen three months ago.
The Fuguogong Mansion was filled with red curtains. Ye Chen was the youngest Duke in the Great Yin Kingdom, so naturally he had a promising future. Furthermore, Chen Qiu knew that Ye Chen had a woman he had loved for many years, but it wasn't she who broke them up. As far as Chen Qiu knew, that woman was also getting married today, and the engagement had been set two years ago.
So Ye Chen hated it so much that even when he returned to the bedroom just now, it was clearly their wedding night, but the sarcasm and hatred in Ye Chen's eyes were so real.
After the bridal chamber, he fell into a deep sleep.
Chen Qiu looked at the blue and purple bite marks on his body. They were not the marks of tenderness, but Ye Chen's expression of dissatisfaction with this marriage.
"Miss," the maid Xing'er came in with a medicine bowl, interrupting Shen Qiu's thoughts.
Chen Qiu hurriedly covered his wound with his clothes. Xing'er put the medicine bowl on the table and looked at Chen Qiu worriedly.
Chen Qiu looked at the medicine bowl on the table and was about to pick it up to drink. Xing'er reached out and held it down, saying urgently, "Miss, when I was boiling the medicine, I saw safflower in it. This is contraceptive soup, you can't drink it!"
Chen Qiu smiled bitterly, pushed Xing'er's hand away, and said, "I know. Drinking contraceptive soup now is better than drinking abortion soup after getting pregnant, right?"
Xing'er opened her mouth in disbelief and asked, "Why? Miss, you have never done anything to offend the Duke. Why would he do this to you?"
Chen Qiu murmured: "Yes, why? I want to know why too."
Suddenly, Ye Chen's voice came from the bed, like a mumbling, and it was unclear. Chen Qiu just looked at it, then picked up the bowl in his hand and took a deep breath. When he was about to drink it, Ye Chen jumped off the bed and slapped the medicine bowl to the ground.
Then he grabbed Chen Qiu's shoulders with both hands, and asked anxiously with red eyes: "Have you drunk it? Have you drunk it?"
Chen Qiu looked at the bowl on the ground and said, "I haven't had time to drink it yet, Guo..." Before Chen Qiu finished speaking, Ye Chen suddenly hugged Chen Qiu.
He kept saying, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, fortunately, fortunately, fortunately you didn't drink."
Chen Qiu was startled by Ye Chen's sudden behavior, but quickly calmed down.
Seeing that Ye Chen hadn't let go of his intention, he said: "Duke, are you having a nightmare? If you wake up now, please let me go, I will let Xing'er go and boil the medicine again."
Ye Chen slowly let go of Chen Qiu, looked at him and said, "Are you stupid? You drink whatever others tell you to drink? That's contraceptive soup, and you still want to drink it?"
Chen Qiu looked at Ye Chen suspiciously and said, "Didn't the Duke ask me to drink it? Didn't the Duke use the Shen family to threaten me to drink it?"
Ye Chen listened to what Chen Qiu said, then slapped himself hard and said, "I'm the bastard. I shouldn't have said those hurtful words to you, and I shouldn't have let you drink that damn contraceptive soup. It's poison. Why are you so obedient?"
Chen Qiu looked at Ye Chen, not knowing what was wrong with him, and said again: "But, you asked me to drink it!"
Ye Chen was stunned for a moment and said, "Please, forget everything that happened before and now, and look at me again, okay? I promise that from now on, I will never say a word that makes you sad, nor do a thing that makes you sad, okay?"
Chen Qiu was now even more confused and could only stare at Ye Chen with an even more suspicious look. Ye Chen took a deep breath, looked at Chen Qiu and said, "Before this, the Ye Chen you saw was not the real Ye Chen. He was just a psychopath. Now this is the real Ye Chen. Do you understand? Whatever that bastard said doesn't count. Only what I say counts. Remember?"
Chen Qiu still stared at Ye Chen like that. She didn't know whether what Ye Chen said was true or false, and she didn't know if he would let her drink the abortion soup if she got pregnant if she didn't drink the contraceptive soup today.
Ye Chen sighed and said, "It's my fault for being such a jerk before. Just bear with it yourself. Qiu'er, have you applied medicine to your wound?"
Then he said to Xing'er, who was stunned by his shock, "Xing'er, go get the medicine box from the top of the wardrobe so I can apply medicine to Madam."
Hearing Ye Chen addressing Shen Qiu, Shen Qiu and Xing'er were stunned again. Seeing that Xing'er didn't move, Ye Chen went to get the medicine box himself.
He grabbed the two remaining packets of contraceptive soup on the table, threw them to Xing'er, and said, "Burn this. Contraceptive soup and abortion soup are no longer allowed in the Duke's Mansion. Do you understand?"
Xing'er looked at Chenqiu, Chenqiu nodded to Xing'er, and Xing'er went out.
Ye Chen took the medicine box and pulled Chen Qiu, letting Chen Qiu sit on the couch in front of the window, and then began to undress Chen Qiu.
Chen Qiu grabbed his clothes and said, "Don't bother me, Duke. I can do it myself."
Ye Chen did not say anything, but gently pushed Chen Qiu's hand away and slowly unbuttoned Chen Qiu's shirt.
Chen Qiu's body was completely covered with wounds by Ye Chen, and there were few intact skin patches from his neck to his waist.
There was even blood coming out of some places. Ye Chen looked at Chen Qiu who was tortured like this by him, and slapped himself twice.
Chen Qiu didn't stop him, but was a little puzzled. Why did a person change so much after sleeping? Would he return to his original state after sleeping again?
Ye Chen took out the medicine and applied it to Chen Qiu, tears streaming down his face as he applied the medicine.
He still came back a step too late. From the time he woke up until now, he had just accepted the fact that this was not a dream.
Ever since Chen Qiu died, he dreamed of the scene of her death every day. Two long feather arrows pierced straight into her heart, for the woman he could never let go of.
He had just dreamed of that scene. Who would have thought that when he woke up, he saw his Qiu'er about to drink something. Without having time to think about what was going on, he jumped to the ground and knocked over the medicine bowl.
The feeling of holding Chen Qiu was different from every time he dreamed. After listening to Chen Qiu's words, he realized that this was their wedding night.
Only after slapping himself did he realize that this really wasn't a dream. He was back, back to the night they got married. Although it was a little late, it was fortunate that he came back before anything serious happened.
In his previous life, he owed her too much and hurt her too much. By the time he realized that he had fallen in love with his Qiu'er, Qiu'er had already become disillusioned with him. No matter what he said, his Qiu'er no longer believed him.
At that time, he was always thinking about how to make amends, but before he could be nice to his Qiu'er for long, his Qiu'er passed away without even saying a word to him before she died.
Now it’s all right, there’s still time to act.
