Chapter 235 It’s nothing, I just want you to have a hard time
Su Rui made an appointment with Yue Heyun to have lunch at Tianxialou.
Booked private room number 2.
Not long after entering the room, Yue Heyun said that she had some business matters to discuss with the owner of Tianxialou. After she left for a while, the door was pushed open again from the outside, but the person was much shorter.
As soon as he stepped through the door, the wolf cub asked dissatisfiedly, "Why don't you go to the private room I reserved?"
Su Rui took a sip of the tea in her hand slowly and said calmly, "You are not afraid of your princess mother discovering your hidden secrets, but I am afraid that you might be colluding with her."
"When did you become so cowardly?"
"Better safe than sorry. If you want to stay, then stay. If you don't want to, I won't stop you."
Seeing Su Rui's completely indifferent expression, the wolf cub asked tentatively, "Don't you want to know why I invited you here? You should know, right?"
Su Rui didn't respond, and there were only two words written on her face: It's up to you.
She just didn't believe him!
She believes everyone but him!
The one-armed little boy couldn't even speak clearly, but she was willing to touch his head and coax him.
The wolf cub clenched his fists in anger, but when he thought about how he had what she wanted, he became proud again. He stepped forward, climbed onto the couch beside her and sat down. He picked up the cake on it and bit into it without hesitation. He said, "You don't have to be so wary of me. There are so many things going on in Prince Long's mansion right now. They don't have time to pay attention to me."
Su Rui nodded perfunctorily, indicating that he understood.
The wolf cub took a big bite of the pastry and chewed it vigorously. Seeing that Su Rui was still sitting still, he couldn't help but get straight to the point and said, "To be honest with you, I took Lin Chuan away."
Su Rui finally looked up at him. The wolf cub raised his eyebrows proudly, with an expression that said, "Even if you know, you can't do anything to me."
"What do you want to do? Just tell me."
Seeing that Su Rui was indeed pretending to be calm, the wolf cub was particularly happy. He leaned closer to Su Rui, leaning his arms on the low table between them, and said proudly, "Nothing, I just want you to feel bad."
"Now, are you satisfied?"
The wolf cub pouted and shook his head, "Not enough. If you beg me and satisfy me, I might consider giving you a chance."
"Then you don't have to wait. That day won't come. He's just Lin Chuan. I can just give him to you at worst." Su Rui said nonchalantly, but her subtle expression was full of irritation and forbearance.
The wolf cub was best at reading people's expressions. He knew Lin Chuan was very important to Su Rui, so he didn't believe her at all. He said, "If it was just Lin Chuan, you wouldn't have gone to so much trouble to capture him, and you wouldn't have come here. But Lin Chuan is very stubborn, especially when it comes to what you want to know. Even if you grind him to dust, he won't tell you."
Su Rui was hit by what was said, and a look of displeasure flashed in her eyes.
The wolf cub became happier and happier. He loved seeing Su Rui get humiliated, and said even more proudly, "I was raised by him. I know him best. I can help you find out what you want."
"Are you so kind?"
"Of course not." The wolf cub shrugged. "However, since you helped me before, I'll let you go. If you don't ask me, you can always ask Prince Yong."
"Has your target been the prince from the beginning?" Su Rui was surprised.
"I suppose so. After all, you're just a woman, and there's not much you can do." The wolf cub made no secret of his disdain for Su Rui's female identity. "I want to inherit Prince Long's mansion, so if you can get Prince Yong to help me, I can not only help you find out what you want to know, but I can also find evidence of Prince Long's collusion with the enemy."
Evidence of Prince Long's treason?
How could the wolf cub possibly master it?
But the wolf cub would never make a deal by talking nonsense, and even asked to make a deal with Yun Ji.
"If you find evidence that Prince Long is collaborating with the enemy, the entire Prince Long Mansion will be destroyed. How will you inherit the throne?"
"That's why I need Prince Yong's help. I'm not of the Tang family, and I'm still young. If Prince Yong is kind and considers Prince Long's early contributions to the Great Zhao, and preserves a lineage for Prince Long's mansion, not only can I get rid of the Tang lineage, but I can also gain a good reputation for benevolence. It's the best of both worlds."
He is good at calculating everything.
As he was speaking, there was a sudden noise outside.
The wolf cub immediately became alert. The door opened again, and Luo E walked in from outside and reported, "Concubine, Deputy Commander Pei has arrived and beaten the shopkeeper of Tianxialou."
"That Pei Yan is like a mad dog. He used to dislike that merchant girl named Yue, and now he's still clinging to her even after divorcing her. He's got a mental problem," the wolf cub complained, jumping off the couch. "You shouldn't have used that merchant girl as a cover. Please, think about it. I might not be willing to trade with you any longer."
After saying that, the wolf cub trotted out the door and returned to his room number one.
Su Rui glanced at the clepsydra placed in the corner of the wall and saw that it was almost time.
With the help of Luo'e, he stood up and walked down. When he reached the second floor, the sounds downstairs were already very clear, and everyone in the room also walked to the fence and looked down.
Pei Yan, who was full of anger, had been pulled up from the shopkeeper who was pinned to the ground and beaten. The shopkeeper was lying on the ground with a bruised face and nose, having been beaten badly.
The staff in the store were a step too slow to help the man up. Yue Heyun apologized sheepishly, "Shopkeeper Zhou, I'm sorry. I'll have someone take you to see a doctor right away, and I'll pay for all the expenses."
"Don't even think about leaving!" Pei Yan shook off the two people who were holding him, then drew his sword from another person's waist and pointed it directly at the shopkeeper Zhou, whose eyes were narrowed into slits due to the beating.
Shopkeeper Zhou and the two men who were supporting him were so frightened that their legs were shaking. One of the stewards hurriedly said, trembling, "Deputy Commander Pei, my Third Uncle just made it very clear to you that he and Miss Yue have nothing to do with each other. They were just discussing business. It was Miss Yue who wanted to sell her family's fragrant wine in our Tianxialou."
"Shopkeeper Zhou is truly in for a disaster. He just exchanged a few words with Miss Yue, and then Deputy Commander Pei rushed in and beat him up. It's a good thing he didn't bring his sword today because he was on leave. Otherwise, Shopkeeper Zhou would probably be dead."
"Deputy Commander Pei didn't seem to care much before, but now that he divorced her, he feels precious about her. Every time a man talks to Miss Yue, he will give him a lesson. But now this is getting too much. If this continues, I'm afraid someone will die."
"He dared to kill Concubine Su back then, so he wouldn't care about others at all."
Various discussions surrounded him, and Shopkeeper Zhou was so frightened that he cried to Yue Heyun, "Miss Yue, I am humble and dare not do business with you. Please be kind and go back with Deputy Commander Pei."
"That's right, go back and stop hurting people."
"What kind of business can a woman run? She has to be in the public eye. The Yue family is not without men, so they don't have to rely on her. Since Deputy Commander Pei is willing to take her back, reconciliation is the best thing for everyone."
Faced with overwhelming oppression, Yue Heyun's face turned from red to white. The maid Xiaohui beside her was so angry that her eyes were filled with tears. She was so angry that she couldn't speak when looking at those faces.
If you want to divorce her, just do it. If you want to take her back now, just take her. What's the point of treating her as your mistress?
