Chapter 614 Warlord's Love
Lianyi completed the mission very smoothly this time, mainly because there are not so many dangers in modern society, so after the mission was completed, she directly chose to enter the next plane to continue completing the mission.
"I'll send you there now, but once the mission in the previous plane is complete, what do you want to keep?"
Shijiu asked.
“I put the resort I built myself into the space. After all, I am very satisfied with this work.”
Lianyi thought for a moment and said.
"Understood! The things will be sent into your space."
As soon as Shijiu finished speaking, Lianyi's soul slid smoothly into a body. When she opened her eyes, she was sitting at an eight-person table.
"Lianyi, you're not well yet, so you don't have to accompany me for breakfast."
The dignified man sitting at the top spoke seriously.
Lianyi was not sure of the other party's identity for the time being, so she just smiled and said:
"It's okay. I feel much better."
"Miss, the master has been worried about you these past two days. He asks about your health every day when he comes home. I think the foreign doctor's medicine is effective. I'll give you an injection and you'll be able to get out of bed."
Sitting opposite Lianyi, a beautiful woman in a floral cheongsam said with a smile.
"That's right. We didn't believe it before, but we didn't expect it to be such an eye-opener this time."
Another round-faced, pretty woman echoed the sentiment.
Lianyi took a quick glance and realized that except for the man sitting at the main seat who was suspected to be her original body's father, the other four people at the table were all women, some of them were plump and some were thin, each with their own unique looks. It was obvious that they had a close relationship with the men, otherwise they would not have sat together to eat.
Lianyi rubbed his forehead, unsure what the mission was this time.
When the man saw Lianyi rubbing his forehead, he immediately glared at the women around him unhappily and said in a low voice:
"Why are you talking so loudly? Can't you see that my daughter is not feeling well?"
The four women immediately fell silent.
Lian Yi took the opportunity to say:
"My daughter is still a little dizzy, so I won't eat with you. I'll go back and lie down for a while."
"I told you not to force it, kid."
The man had a fatherly expression on his face, and said to a little girl standing behind Lianyi:
"Ziyuan, help your young lady back to her room to rest and watch her drink the medicine."
"Yes, sir!"
The fifteen-year-old girl responded crisply, immediately stepped forward, held Lianyi's arm, and left the dining room.
After Lianyi left, the four women who had been silent just now spoke one after another:
"Master, please don't get angry with us. It's not that we didn't like the young lady. She insisted on going to see Zhang Xuetao, the child prodigy of the Zhang family. We, the concubines, couldn't stop her."
"Yes! No one expected that it would rain that day. The young lady came back from the rain and got a fever. It was the fourth sister who was smart. When the prescription prescribed by the doctor in the mansion was not effective, she went to the nearby church hospital to invite a foreign doctor. Otherwise, the young lady might not be able to get up when the master came back."
"Miss is also missing you, so I forced myself to come and have breakfast with you."
"Master, how long can you stay in the mansion this time? Don't leave after just two days. My young lady misses you, and the four of us sisters miss you too!"
A group of women at the table were chattering with Duan Zongqing about what had happened in the mansion after he left.
With Ziyuan's service, Lianyi returned to her boudoir which was a combination of Chinese and Western styles. She lay on the soft bed, closed her eyes, and began to receive the memories of her original body.
Her original name was Duan Lianyi. She was the only daughter of the great warlord Duan Zongqing. She just turned fourteen this year. She was the only child of Duan Zongqing and his deceased wife. His wife was shot and killed by a missile while trying to protect Duan Zongqing.
Duan Zongqing naturally raised the daughter left by his deceased wife in his arms. During the attack, his wife blocked the fatal blow, but he himself was also seriously injured and could not even have offspring. In order to take care of his young daughter, he married another wife.
This woman was born into a large family. Although she usually took care of her original body when she was young, she actually wanted to have a son of her own. Unfortunately, she didn't know that Duan Zongqing was infertile, so she made a very stupid decision.
When Duan Zongqing came back from the war, he found that his daughter was so thin that her bones were visible, and she was gnawing on raw sweet potatoes, while his wife was holding her waist and said that she was pregnant with a son. This made Duan Zongqing, who was already hot-tempered, furious. He slapped her and told this self-righteous woman that he had lost his fertility due to injuries sustained in the war.
The woman then turned pale and realized why she was beaten, because the child in her belly was the result of her having an affair with her cousin and she thought she had done everything perfectly, but it turned out that the man she married was infertile.
Duan Zongqing was not a soft-hearted person. He ordered people to invite the woman's parents and also invited a famous doctor at that time. After explaining the situation, he gave the woman an abortion drug on the spot. He would never give the other party any chance to get close to him in the future. So he wrote a letter of divorce and divorced the other party directly. From then on, he gave up the idea of getting married.
Duan Zongqing could not take his daughter with him to war, so he left behind a team of trusted personal guards and hired old women and maids to take care of his daughter. It was not until he conquered some territory in the south that he brought a few concubines into the mansion.
In the end, the only ones who stayed with Duan Zongqing were these four concubines. They knew that their master was infertile, so they gave up the idea of having a son. They devoted themselves to pleasing and taking care of Lianyi, and they lived a comfortable life.
As the only daughter of the great warlord Duan Zongqing, marrying her would mean inheriting all of Duan Zongqing's power. Many people were eyeing her, so Duan Zongqing kept a close eye on his daughter.
However, among those who had such plans was Zhang Xuefeng, a big warlord entrenched in the north. He had an only son, Zhang Xuetao, who was three years older than the original son. He was a real child prodigy. Under the training of his father since he was young, he was both civil and military, and was exceptionally outstanding.
The most important thing is that the original body had met Zhang Xuetao once and regarded him as the person she wanted to marry. Duan Zongqing saw that his daughter was willing and that the other party was indeed outstanding, especially since the merger of the two largest warlords in the north and the south was of great significance, so he arranged the engagement for the two when the original body turned 16.
In order to become a wife worthy of Zhang Xuetao, the original body was sent to Country Y by Duan Zongqing to attend a bridal school, and returned four years later to prepare for the marriage.
Unfortunately, Zhang Xuetao already had a lover at that time. He fell in love with a field doctor and felt that she was the woman who could stand shoulder to shoulder with him. A delicate lady like the original body was not what he was after.
However, their marriage was no joke, as it involved the merger of two major forces. Zhang Xuetao pretended to marry the original body, and on the other hand, he used a knife to kill someone else, launching an attack at the wedding scene, killing Duan Zongqing on the spot. The original body was also seriously injured and had a facial injury.
Zhang Xuetao, despite being covered in injuries, led his men to avenge his father-in-law and wife, killed a warlord who was responsible for the attack, and successfully took over the Duan family's power, becoming the largest warlord in China.
When the original body woke up, the only people guarding her bed were her father's four concubines, and she discovered that they were under house arrest.
A year later, when she was able to get out of bed, she asked to see Zhang Xuetao. The people guarding her did not refuse her this time. However, it was not only Zhang Xuetao who came to see her, but also his current wife Yun Siyu.
See you tomorrow, my dears~
