Chapter 43 Where do you feel uncomfortable?
The rough big hand moved slowly, caressing the soft waist aggressively.
The man's deliberately increased strength, coupled with the dull pain in her chest, made Wen Ning's body tremble uncontrollably.
A faint cry of pain suddenly rose from his throat, but he bit it hard, and it turned into a very light gasp.
Xie Jinglan glared at her with his dark, deep eyes. "Ning'er said that after eight months, you'll be at my disposal. And now... it's exactly eight months."
She had indeed made such a promise to him, and she didn't know how to refute it for a moment.
The pajamas were about to slip off due to his deliberate teasing.
She subconsciously wanted to pull her clothes together, but her wrists were tied, so she could only watch as her pajamas completely unraveled.
The coldness suddenly touched my skin, and I could only subconsciously retract my shoulders.
The thin string of the moon-white dress left a shallow mark on her collarbone, tightening and loosening with her suppressed breathing.
"Since Ning'er likes to bear children for men so much, how about giving birth to one for me?"
He spoke as nonchalantly as ever, but the sneer on his lips had changed, and his eyes were filled with sarcasm and humiliation.
Wen Ning's jaw trembled, and there was a wet mist deep in her pupils.
It seemed that if one more word was said, the thin layer of water light would shatter into tears.
Especially the word "child".
She doesn't like to bear children for men.
Only she herself knows how this child came about.
These words were like a red-hot needle that suddenly pierced my heart.
The shock, fear, and anger accumulated in my chest, as well as the unspeakable helplessness hidden in the deepest part of my heart, all burst out at once.
She suddenly sneered and looked up at him, "I was only sold into the Marquis's mansion as a slave, not myself to the Marquis. I bear a child for my husband. It is natural and human, and it is the love between husband and wife!"
Even she herself was surprised at her sudden courage, and a cold sneer broke out from her lips, "If I bear a child for the Marquis, I'm afraid it would be against etiquette!"
Xie Jinglan's eyes suddenly turned angry, with jealousy and coldness surging in his eyes.
He sneered, and his fingertips suddenly slid to her delicate lips, rubbing them fiercely.
Her eyelashes trembled in pain, and a suppressed sob rolled out of her throat.
"The laws of nature and human ethics? The love between husband and wife? You and him have only been together for a day, I'm afraid you still don't understand the true nature of love between men and women!"
His knuckles pressed maliciously against her trembling teeth, and his tone was so cold that it chilled people.
"Remember! From now on, you can only have a relationship with this Marquis. This Marquis is the etiquette and law that you should follow!"
Before the sound faded away, the man had already grabbed her lips fiercely, plundering them with anger and force, forcing her to accept it.
The cloth rope around his wrist was tightened even more due to his struggle, and the red mark was almost bleeding.
But his hand around the back of her neck didn't move at all, and the hostility and possessiveness in his kiss blocked all her room for struggle.
Wen Ning whimpered helplessly, and tears soon filled her eyes.
It took a long time before she got a chance to breathe.
“No…I can’t…”
The man paused and suddenly turned his face to the side.
His hot breath swept across her earlobe, and then he bit her earlobe viciously, his voice deep and hoarse, "Why not? Doesn't the agreement count anymore?"
“Hmm—”
She was in so much pain that tears welled up in her eyes almost instantly, sliding silently down the corners of her peach-shaped eyes and hitting the back of the man's hand that was holding her neck, forming a small hot ball.
She sobbed and resisted.
"Not today, I...I'm really not feeling well."
Hearing this, the man curled his lips meaningfully.
These words seemed to hit the mark.
Then, his eyes scrutinized her from head to toe like a hawk.
"Oh? Are you feeling uncomfortable?"
There was a hint of amusement in the deliberately slowed tone.
Wen Ning's ears felt hot from his burning gaze, and she turned her face away unconsciously.
"I..." She suddenly fell silent. She didn't know how to say it.
After careful consideration, she said, "It's...it's a common discomfort after childbirth."
She bit her lip subconsciously, but couldn't stop her chest from rising and falling violently.
Xie Jinglan sneered, holding her waist firmly with one hand, while with the other hand he tore off her moon-white dress without hesitation.
then……
"Is this the place?"
The man didn't deliberately use force with his hands, but as a warrior who had been holding swords and guns for many years, his finger bones had the unique strength of a martial artist, and his strength was so great that she couldn't believe it.
She was completely defenseless.
Before he could even scream out in pain, everything in front of him went dark, as if he was about to fall into a bottomless abyss at any moment.
pain!
Heart-wrenching pain!
The man's brows suddenly furrowed. Although he didn't understand the pain of feeding a baby, the touch of the hard stone under his hand really made his heart tremble.
Only then did he understand why Nanny Xue had asked him to be gentler.
His gaze shifted from her pale face to her bitten lip, where a streak of bright red blood was slowly sliding down from the corner of her lip.
The hand was withdrawn almost instinctively.
The severe pain in her chest and the stinging on her lips combined into a ball, coupled with the embarrassment of being seen, Wen Ning wished she could find a hole in the ground to crawl into immediately.
In her blurred vision, when the man stretched out his hand to touch her, she choked with sobs and could only shield half of her face with her shoulder, warning:
"Don't, don't look...don't move!"
The man slowly lowered his hand back to his side.
He didn't say anything else, but he didn't move an inch.
Wen Ning couldn't hold on any longer. Her fingertips dug deep into the headboard of the bed. She finally let go of all her toughness and her voice trembled and became out of tune.
"Your Majesty is a noble man, what woman can't he get? The reason he can't let me go is simply because he can't bear my flight, or my indifference. A girl worthy of your Majesty should be one of equal rank, bright and graceful.
I am just a widow whose husband has died, I am unclean and have a child, why does the Marquis bother with me?"
Although the anger in the man's eyes had mostly faded at this moment, his dark pupils were still unfathomable.
Xie Jinglan sneered in his heart for no reason. How could he answer her when he himself couldn't figure it out?
But he never cared about having a respectable family background.
His decency never needs anyone to "match" him.
She lied to him! She abandoned him!
Now, I regard him as unwilling and entangled.
The warmth that had just appeared in his eyes froze in an instant, and he asked back: "You don't want to be entangled with me, you want to draw a clear line between us? Then what? What kind of life do you want to live then?"
Wen Ning looked up at him, and most of the moisture in her eyes had dissipated.
"I have no other wishes but to live a peaceful life and raise my child slowly."
The man raised an eyebrow, "What about the child?"
She paused.
"Go...go get some milk."
"You want to eat someone else's? Not yours?"
Xie Jinglan lowered his eyes, asking the question even though he knew the answer.
Wen Ning was filled with shame and indignation, not knowing whether he really didn't understand or was deliberately humiliating her. She said in a somewhat annoyed tone:
“It’s blocked!”
