Chapter 58 He wanted to share the same bed in life and the same lungs in death with her.
Without him even saying a word, Ji Wanyuan knew what method he was going to suggest.
She called him shameless, a beast in human form and a lecherous scoundrel.
"Wen Qiyan, I hate you!" she shouted angrily.
"You hate me that much?" He lowered his eyelids, his eyes downcast, revealing his original aloofness and handsomeness.
Ji Wanyuan turned her eyes away angrily, not wanting to look at his excessively exquisite and outstandingly handsome face, because it would easily dispel her anger.
If he hadn't been so good-looking, she wouldn't have fallen for him at first sight.
"Get out of my way!" she cursed again, calling him ugly and smelly.
"Am I ugly or smelly?"
Ji Wanyuan said, "You're right, you're still old."
"I'm old?" The man's brow twitched slightly as he looked up at her lifeless face.
"Yes, you're old, ugly, and smelly! I must have been blind to have fallen for you. Do you know how much I regret drugging you? Even if I pulled my intestines back out, they'd still be blue!"
"You're right, I didn't want this child in the first place. I'd rather never be a mother again than marry a bastard like you!"
He didn't want to be angry, but she always managed to provoke him.
Because of how much he cared about her, he couldn't help but take her angry words to heart.
She always knew how to strike right at his heart.
But strangely, the pain was accompanied by a sense of pleasure.
He thought, at least she wasn't indifferent. He hated her affected mannerisms; at least her angry outbursts and scoldings were vivid.
But... she actually mentioned Qin Di.
It's one thing to belittle him to the point of being worthless, saying he's inferior to Wen Yunqin, but what's with all this talk about regret? Regret marrying him? Does she want to marry Brother Qin?
“Ji Wanyuan.” He shook her chin. “You shouldn’t have used Qin Di to provoke me.”
"Why can't I? Who do you think you are—"
Waaaaah...
He sealed her lips with his kiss again, kissing her deeply, forcing her lips to open completely and accept his kiss.
He sucked on her tongue, swirling and churning it between her lips, his tongue moving so fiercely.
Because the flipping was so intense, Ji Wanyuan couldn't adapt. Not only did her silver hair get caught in it, but some saliva also dripped from the corner of her mouth.
How embarrassing…
Now, without even looking, she could imagine how disgusted she felt at that moment.
But Wen Qiyan didn't stop. He only let her catch her breath before continuing to kiss her, kissing her fiercely.
Ji Wanyuan quickly lost even the sound of sobbing; only the sounds of kissing continued.
He finally stopped just as she was about to suffocate.
No, it's not that we stopped, we just changed the location to kiss.
Wen Qiyan executed her by slow slicing.
She looked down and saw the man's handsome features resting on her heart.
Without even looking, she could feel why the undergarment was stuck to her body—it was because he was making a mess of things through it.
Ji Wanyuan was taking a breath, her eyes blurry with tears.
It was just a change of location for the kiss, and then she found her sensitivity intensifying, instinctively bringing her ankles together.
She had just come together when the man grabbed her, pinching her ankle and pulling her back apart.
Ji Wanyuan spoke again, her voice weak, "What are you doing?"
"Don't you know what I'm going to do?"
Ji Wanyuan quickly realized what he was going to do.
Sobbing... tears welled up in her eyes.
The imagined anger was overwhelmed by pleasure and almost completely extinguished.
Has she gone mad?
Despite Wen Qiyan's domineering attitude towards her, she was still so excited that she conjured up dew and cleaned the courtyard to welcome him.
They were so "welcoming" and "delighted" by his arrival.
This was all because, after their interactions some time ago, he had figured out what excited her, which is why he treated her that way, precisely hitting her sensitive spots.
Ji Wanyuan sniffed and told him to get out, but as she said that, waves of pleasure surged through her, and she couldn't help but arch her delicate neck, which was covered with hickeys.
The tone that came out of her mouth was incredibly charming, and not to mention how Wen Qiyan would react, she herself couldn't help but blush.
That jerk, he's so awful! It's all because of him that she's like this!
"..."
After an unknown amount of time, their complete intimacy caused them both to tremble slightly.
He held her in his arms, brushed aside the wet hair on her forehead, revealing her rosy nose and the corners of her eyes.
She was sweating profusely and crying fiercely. Her long, curly eyelashes were clumped together, making her look so delicate that she didn't seem like someone about to become a mother at all, but rather like an unmarried girl.
As she stared at him, she sniffed with her bright red nose, so beautiful that his heart trembled, and he couldn't take his eyes off her face.
He moved closer to her and shared a bed with her.
She was so happy she was twitching.
She verbally resisted his advances, but her body language betrayed her.
Wen Qiyan's nose touched hers, brushed against hers briefly, then moved away, his forehead pressed against hers.
Their faces were both hot, as if they were passing on their warmth to each other.
"Ji Wanyuan..." he whispered her name, "I'm starting to hate you..."
He hated her for seducing him and then abandoning him, for toying with him without taking responsibility, for turning him into someone unrecognizable, for his lingering attachment and sentimental entanglement. Not only did she despise him, but he himself loathed it.
"...Why don't we die together? What do you say?"
The man's brow twitched. He closed his eyes, and a faint glimmer of tears appeared at the corners of his narrow eyes. His voice was low and soft, as if it were about to break.
Unfortunately, the night was too dark, and the woman he shared a bed with was crying, which he did not notice.
She didn't notice anything, but was frightened by the man's words.
She sniffed, letting out a small gasp of surprise.
"W-what did you say?" Did she mishear?
"Don't you want to die with me?" The man's large hand reached around the back of her head, controlling her and not allowing her to back down.
"Who was it that said I had to be with her for all eternity, that even if she couldn't have me in life, she would dig me up and bury me with her in death, huh?"
It seems like she said it herself. Back then, she liked Wen Qiyan so much that she couldn't control herself. Lin Nianxi teased her, saying that she was simply delusional and that Wen Qiyan could never be with her. That's why she said that even if she couldn't have him while he was alive, she would still snatch him away even if he died.
"It wasn't me," the woman's voice trailed off.
She sobbed, clinging to him.
"It really wasn't you?"
Ji Wanyuan said no, he remembered wrong.
He didn't care, and stroked the back of her neck. "It's okay, I really want to be buried with you."
They share the same bed in life and the same lungs in death; their hands are tied with a red string, ensuring they will be entangled in each other even in reincarnation.
Ji Wanyuan wanted to curse, but she didn't dare.
She felt that Wen Qiyan was acting a bit crazy. Had she gone too far with her words? Was he really that fragile? She had only said a few words.
She tried to push him away, but the more she pushed, the tighter she held him.
This was definitely not her intention; at most, it could be considered a case of overdoing it.
After a moment of silence, Ji Wanyuan noticed that he stopped talking about life and death.
He rose slightly and then pinched her waist.
Take it slow and proceed slowly.
Her lower abdomen was noticeably protruding, but her waist remained slender.
Wen Qiyan easily lifted her waist.
He is very gentle.
Ji Wanyuan looked up at the man's expression. He lowered his eyes, and even though he was tainted with desire, he remained aloof and, more importantly, melancholic.
Although her words were harsh, they weren't too severe, and they didn't cause him any real harm, yet he seemed quite hurt.
Ji Wanyuan quickly lost interest in thinking about these things because Wen Qiyan pulled her to the other side and continued to please her.
Even though she was arguing and bickering with Wen Qiyan, the physical pleasure she felt was undeniable.
Even with her lips tightly pressed together, she couldn't help but let out a sob and a soft whimper.
"..."
I don't know how he did it, but he always hit the right spot for her, making her feel very comfortable, and his strength was also very good.
Ji Wanyuan clutched the soft pillow, suppressing her sobs. Her long hair fell loose, obscuring her face and clinging to her collarbone, making her muffled voice all the more alluring.
Wen Qiyan released one hand, reached forward, brushed aside her long hair, pinched her delicate chin, and turned her around so that she was looking at him.
Ji Wanyuan tried to struggle, but the result was the same; she couldn't break free at all.
The man's eyes were deep and unfathomable, and she was forced to look at him, "..."
"Is it pleasant?" he asked her.
Ji Wanyuan pursed her lips, unwilling to answer, but he had a way with it.
A moment later, Ji Wanyuan made a series of intermittent sounds, indirectly answering his question.
"Judging from the voice, it seems to be Shu Yu."
She bit her lip, trying to control herself, but the man used his long, slender fingers to push it away.
Seeing the teeth marks left on her lips, Wen Qiyan lowered his head and pecked at them.
"Ji Wanyuan, you kissed me so tightly."
The kiss he mentioned was definitely not the kiss he was talking about.
Because she wasn't kissing him at all; the only point of contact was...
"Are you trying to completely strangle me?" he asked again. "Actually, that's fine too."
A deep, husky voice sounded in my ear, "Make sure I have no descendants for the rest of my life."
"How about we just go along with your wishes?"
Ji Wanyuan came to her senses and realized that the so-called method of preventing men from having children that he had mentioned earlier was not a proper method, and this proved to be true at this moment.
She called him shameless, her voice soft.
The man scoffed and didn't respond to her.
The two remained face to face, and the sounds of their intimate contact were louder and more intimate than the sounds of kissing.
Wen Qiyan lowered his gaze, while Ji Wan looked at his handsome face. Perhaps it was because it was late at night and the tent was dim, but she could feel that the gloom on his body was getting heavier and heavier, intertwined with passion and desire, making him seem even more sinister.
Wen Qiyan was in a bad mood because of what she had said.
If Wen Qiyan didn't love her, those mocking words wouldn't have hurt him much, and his anger would have been superficial. But now that he truly cares about her, he's feeling so bad.
She often experienced this feeling during the years she liked Wen Qiyan, when she was constantly ridiculed.
Now the tables have turned, and it's his turn to taste that bitterness.
Ji Wanyuan, having learned the truth, couldn't help but snort inwardly.
It turns out that Wen Qiyan coldly observed her bitterness and disappointment back then.
She quickly got to another matter: since he had "bullied" her so much, it meant that there was nothing wrong with his health, right?
Ji Wanyuan didn't even need to look down to feel his "toughness".
"..."
Wen Qiyan didn't go too far today.
But when it was over, Ji Wanyuan was very tired and fell into a deep sleep after taking a shower.
The man beside her stared at her face for a long time without resting.
When Ji Wanyuan woke up, it was already broad daylight.
Wen Qiyan wasn't there, and she was still sleepy.
Jade noticed that she was awake but not in a good state, so she asked her if she wanted to get up, use something, and then go back to sleep.
"Madam Wen sent word that she wants you to rest more these next few days."
Get plenty of rest?
Ji Wanyuan sensed something was off about the conversation, looked up and saw that Emerald's expression was slightly evasive, and asked her what had happened.
Right, after all that commotion with Wen Qiyan, she almost forgot that the two of them had a fight.
"Is it because of your uncle's matter?" Ji Wanyuan asked.
Madam Wen must have thought she was a femme fatale.
But to her, "femme fatale" was more of a compliment, a way of praising someone.
"More or less..." Emerald hesitated in her words, and Ji Wanyuan's drowsiness vanished.
She told her to speak quickly.
Jade then revealed that Wen Qiyan and Wen Yunqin had fought in the rain, and that Wen Yunqin had actually been seriously injured.
"Seriously injured?" Ji Wanyuan exclaimed in surprise. "But when we stopped and looked at Uncle, he seemed perfectly fine."
How did he get so badly injured?
“It’s an internal injury,” Emerald sighed. “After you and the young master left, Lord Wen called the second young master to his study. But according to the servants of the Wen family, the father and son had barely exchanged two words when the second young master vomited blood on the spot.”
"He vomited blood on the spot?!" Ji Wanyuan was stunned. "Then... is he still alive?"
"She's alive," Emerald reassured her, saying that she had already seen a doctor and that she was resting after taking medicine.
Ji Wanyuan also knew that He hadn't gone to see the imperial physician. After all, it was a family scandal. If the two brothers got into a fight and fought to the death, it wouldn't sound good if word got out.
"That's why Madam Wen told you to rest more and try not to move around too much."
She understood; it just meant she didn't want to see her anymore.
If you don't want to watch it, then don't watch it. It's not like anyone wants to watch it.
Ji Wanyuan pursed her lips and pinched her aching waist as she stood up. "Where's Wen Qiyan?"
"The young master was summoned away by Lord Wen. He first went to see the second young master, and after sitting for only a short while, he went to the palace again."
That means they're no longer at the residence.
It's unclear what the two of them went to the palace for.
Whatever the reason, it's definitely not good news!
Ji Wanyuan washed and tidied herself up, ate a quick meal, and was about to return to the Ji family home, but she was not allowed to leave. There were two old women at the door who wouldn't let her out, saying it was Madam Wen's order.
"What do you mean? Are you going to confine me to my quarters?!" Ji Wanyuan cried out.
She wasn't one to be trifled with either, and immediately ordered the old woman who had come with her dowry to do it.
But to her surprise, a group of guards suddenly appeared. She was surrounded by maids and servants, so even if she took action, she probably wouldn't gain any advantage. Ji Wanyuan could only hold back.
Emerald thought she would continue sleeping peacefully today, so she didn't tell her. Who knew she would suddenly want to go back?
Ji Wanyuan couldn't leave on her own, so she planned to send someone back. However, Emerald told her that none of the people who came with her dowry could freely enter or leave the courtyard.
She was placed under complete house arrest.
Ji Wanyuan made a scene for a while, but the people guarding the door ignored her. Tired of arguing, she had no choice but to turn back and sit down in a huff.
When the old woman came to deliver the message to Madam Wen, she was taking her medicine.
After yesterday's events, Madam Wen, whose condition had improved somewhat, fell ill again.
Lin Nianxi and Wen Qingling were taking care of her, especially Lin Nianxi, who personally served Wen Madam her medicine. If Ji Wanyuan were there, she would definitely scoff and roll her eyes in her heart.
"Let her make a scene. I want to see if she can cause any trouble in the Wen family!" Madam Wen said angrily.
“Mother, the doctor just said you mustn’t get angry, otherwise your condition will worsen.” Wen Qingling patted her back.
Lin Nianxi was naturally pleased to hear Madam Wen scolding Ji Wanyuan, but on the surface, she still pretended to help persuade her and praised Ji Wanyuan's good points.
"Alright, alright, let's not mention her anymore." Madam Wen couldn't help but feel a headache whenever she heard Ji Wanyuan's name.
What a troublemaker! He single-handedly managed to keep the Wen family from having a peaceful life.
"I'm sorry you had to see this." Madam Wen regained her composure and then remembered that Lin Nianxi was a guest.
"What are you saying? You've watched me grow up since I was a child. The Wen family is like my own family. You and Uncle are my elders. Since this is a family matter, there's no question of watching and laughing at us," Lin Nianxi said.
Looking at her gentle face and listening to her comforting words, Madam Wen couldn't help but sigh.
"If only that incident hadn't happened back then."
Even without that incident, His Majesty would surely have found another way to arrange a marriage between the two families.
Mrs. Wen had mixed feelings.
Wen Qingling dismissed the people on both sides and stepped forward, "Mother..."
"With Ji Wanyuan causing such a scene at home, a house arrest probably won't last long. What do you plan to do?"
Madam Wen shook her head, "I don't know what to do either."
It can't be explained in just a few words.
Lin Nianxi and Wen Qingling exchanged a glance. Lin Nianxi made an excuse to leave and went downstairs to wash her hands.
Wen Qingling probed into Madam Wen's intentions, asking her if she had ever considered getting the two of them divorced.
Mrs. Wen paused, "..."
"My daughter thinks she is too unruly and shameless. If she continues to live with her brother, and her second brother is in the mansion, what if... she causes something? Wouldn't our Wen family's reputation be ruined?"
Madam Wen remained silent, as it was not appropriate to discuss matters of the court. She only mentioned that Ji Wanyuan was pregnant with Wen Qiyan's child.
"If we raise the child at home, the divorce might be possible. I have my own reasons for saying this, Mother. You like Nianxi, and she's always been on good terms with my brother. The Lin family is also close to our family. Besides, she's been waiting for my brother. So, I think if it's possible, we should..."
Madam Wen wanted to, but couldn't bring it up right now.
"Never mind, never mind."
She interrupted Wen Qingling, "The Ji family is not to be trifled with. Even if it's a divorce, there has to be a decent excuse. Although Ji Wanyuan made a mistake, it wasn't a big one. If we suddenly get a divorce, won't our family become enemies with the Ji family?"
Lin Nianxi, who had gone away but returned to eavesdrop in the corner by the door, couldn't help but grit her teeth.
Ultimately, it all comes down to the Ji family and that child.
If that child is gone...
"This is a matter between your brother and your father. Your mother and father will handle it themselves. You should not interfere. Spend the next few days with Nianxi and talk to her about happy things. Don't mention these things."
Since that was the case, Wen Qingling didn't say anything more and could only respond with an "okay".
After Madam Wen went to sleep, Wen Qingling accompanied Lin Nianxi for a walk in the backyard.
After walking for a while, Lin Nianxi said that she had been at the Wen family's house for several days and it was really inappropriate to continue to bother them. Besides, her mother-in-law had come to the door yesterday, saying that there was something going on at home and that she should go back.
"I'll visit again in a few days." She patted Wen Qingling's hand.
"Then you must remember to come." There have been many things going on at her parents' home lately, and besides, Madam Wen had already said that, so Wen Qingling couldn't ask her to stay any longer.
"good."
After returning to the Lin family home, Lin Nianxi, who had been holding back for several days, finally lost her temper and burst into tears, then buried her face in her hands on the table.
Upon receiving the news, Mrs. Lin returned home early to comfort her, asking what had happened.
After learning what had happened from the maidservant beside her, Madam Lin told her not to worry, "The Ji family may be powerful now, but they have long been a thorn in His Majesty's side."
Since they're a thorn in our side, they'll be removed sooner or later.
"Mother! Things are different now!"
Lin Nianxi said that Wen Qiyan had fallen for Ji Wanyuan, and even fought with his own younger brother for her sake, beating him so badly that he suffered internal injuries and vomited blood. That was his own younger brother!
"Men are like that; sometimes they get excited and jealous, which is normal, especially since the two haven't been married for very long."
Wen Yunqin has feelings for Ji Wanyuan, but those close to the Wen family claim they don't know?
“Your father has been working hard in the court, and the Ji family will fall soon. If the Ji family falls, will Ji Wanyuan still be alive? You will marry into the Wen family sooner or later, so don’t lose your composure at this critical juncture.”
“But that child…” Lin Nianxi felt she wouldn’t be able to wait for him.
Thinking of Ji Wanyuan's face yesterday, and Wen Qiyan's care, attention, and possessiveness towards her, how could she not feel jealous?
She and Ji Wanyuan have been rivals for so many years, and she has always been the one who has the upper hand. But now she is being controlled by her in every way. How can she be willing to accept this?
"Mother...can you help your daughter?"
Lin Nianxi said she didn't want to see the child. If the child was gone, the two of them would definitely divorce sooner, and the relationship between the Ji family and the Wen family would completely deteriorate. Ji Wanyuan and Wen Qiyan never contacted each other again.
"This matter...I'm afraid we need to discuss it with your father," Madam Lin hesitated.
“Alright, then please talk to Father and ask him to help your daughter. Your daughter really likes Brother Qiyan and wants to marry him.”
"Yes, yes, Mother understands."
At night, Lord Lin returned home.
Madam Lin brought up the matter to him indirectly, but before she could finish speaking, Lord Lin asked if Lin Nianxi had been crying.
Seeing that she could no longer hide it, Madam Lin nodded and told her father everything.
"That child..." To be honest, Madam Lin also felt that the child should not be kept.
With the Ji family's downfall, the Wen and Lin families will inevitably be able to form a marriage alliance. Placing the child under Lin Nianxi's care might seem like a good thing on the surface, but it's ultimately unpleasant.
Moreover, the Ji family is plotting a rebellion, so this child is ultimately a potential threat.
"What do you think, sir? Is it feasible to take action?" Madam Lin said that she could find some connections to do it discreetly.
After hearing this, Lord Lin stroked his chin and pondered, "Our Lin family cannot get our hands dirty with blood."
"So that means it can't be done?" Mrs. Lin asked rhetorically.
"It is possible, but we must first go through the Emperor's approval. Only by going through the formalities can we have a legitimate reason to act, and in the future, when the truth comes out, we can also give an explanation to the Wen family."
Some time ago, when he went to see the Emperor, the Emperor told him that Wen Qiyan and Ji Wanyuan had probably developed feelings for each other, but these feelings did not seem to be very deep.
Therefore, the emperor certainly did not want this child to be born safely.
"..."
It rained again that night, and Ji Wanyuan slept restlessly, finding herself dreaming again.
This dream was very strange; it was actually a continuation of a storybook.
