Chapter 35 What's more important than spending time with your wife?
Shang Ruyi was stunned for a moment.
She thought Yuwen Ye would remain cold towards her, but she never expected his attitude to be so different—
But when she saw the happy family scene behind him, she understood. Yuwen Ye was still sober. No matter what had happened between them, no matter how much he disliked her, he would still put on a show for his family.
Thinking of this, Shang Ruyi smiled faintly and shook her head, saying, "No, I'm not tired."
At this moment, Yuwen Yuan also saw her, and waved with a smile, gesturing for her to sit down quickly. He then scolded Yuwen Ye, "I asked you to accompany your wife out for a stroll, why did you run off by yourself? That's not right!"
Yuwen Ye said, "Father, please don't be offended. It's just that there's an urgent matter in the army that I need to attend to."
"What could be more important than spending time with your wife?"
"Father, do you still remember those remnants of the Longmen rebels?"
Upon hearing this, Shang Ruyi, who was about to sit down, was stunned. She saw Yuwen Ye turn to look at her and say, "Don't be afraid, those people have been caught."
"oh……"
"I'll have them locked up in solitary confinement. As for what to do with them—we'll see."
He spoke these words in a calm tone, without revealing a ferocious expression, but Shang Ruyi still felt an almost murderous pressure emanating from him once again.
At this moment, Yuwen Cheng, who was sitting next to Guan Yunmu, suddenly laughed and said, "Second Brother, they actually dared to scheme against and threaten you like this. You certainly won't let them off easily, right?"
"..."
"When you deal with them, take me to see it, okay?"
Yuwen Ye said indifferently, "You should focus on your studies. Military affairs are none of your concern."
Yuwen Cheng immediately became dejected.
Shang Ruyi glanced at him, then at Yuwen Ye beside her, whose expression was gradually turning cold, and then she realized what was going on.
I suppose he wanted to vent his anger too.
Putting everything else aside, as a military man, it was extremely humiliating for his newlywed wife—even if it was just a transaction, in the eyes of outsiders they were husband and wife—to be schemed against like this and even injured. He had to deal with these people no matter what in order to establish his authority in the army.
"Alright, let's not talk about military matters while we're eating."
Yuwen Yuan waved his hand, then smiled as he watched his family members take their seats, and said with a sigh, "It's been a long time since our family has sat down to have a meal like this."
Sitting next to him, Guan Yunmu coughed twice, then smiled and said, "You and Ye'er are always busy with important matters outside, how can you have time to sit down and have a proper meal?"
"That's true."
As Yuwen Yuan spoke, he glanced at Yuwen Ye and Shang Ruyi sitting beside him, as well as Yuwen Cheng next to Guan Yunmu. Suddenly, a hint of disappointment appeared on his smiling face.
Although it was just a fleeting expression, some of the people at the table still managed to catch it.
Shang Ruyi also sensed it.
If she wasn't mistaken, at this moment, Yuwen Yuan should have thought of the only member of the Yuwen family who wasn't present—
Yuwen Qian.
The thought of this person made Shang Ruyi's heart sink.
Of course she knew that after such an embarrassing broken engagement, it would be best if the two of them never saw each other again. But strangely, from the wedding yesterday until now, she really hadn't seen Yuwen Qian, and no one had mentioned him at all. It was as if he didn't exist in the Yuwen family at all.
Shang Ruyi became increasingly curious about this person.
What kind of person is he?
