Truth 3
In the afternoon, Chen Cong received the news that Ling Wan was preparing to return to the Shen Mansion, so when he arrived at the villa in the evening, the coldness of the past few days had softened a little.
"If you can't bear to leave here, wait until you give birth and then we can come back to stay for a while next year." Chen Cong probably lost his mind and started talking nonsense.
This was where Shen Huaijin imprisoned her, and it was also where Shen Cong imprisoned her. Why would she be reluctant to leave? The reason she didn't move before was that she was too lazy to bother.
If she wanted a quiet and comfortable place, she could choose from many farms as a dowry.
"The soup tonight is delicious, you should have some." Chen Cong scooped a small bowl of fresh fish soup for her and placed it in front of her.
Ling Wan glanced at him, said nothing, and pushed him away as usual.
They hadn't spoken much in months. To be more precise, it was Xu Lingwan who had stopped talking to him.
"If you don't like it, don't drink it." Seeing this, Chen Cong smiled palely.
The room fell silent again, and you could hear a pin drop, with only the occasional sound of dishes and chopsticks accidentally colliding.
Chen Cong carefully glanced at Ling Wan's expression and saw that she seemed not to be affected by him. She was enjoying the dishes happily as usual. He felt pain and numbness in his heart.
But then I thought about how she had gained some weight recently, and I felt a little relieved.
Ever since he realized Ling Wan was alienated from him, Mr. Shen had often been so awkward and cautious in her presence. It was also during this time that Chen Yuanyuan understood Shen Cong's true temperament.
Peel off the illusion of brightness and brightness, and you'll find Chen Cong is nothing but a dog. A wild and untamable dog, a wolfhound.
This wolfdog has very sharp fangs and knows how to bite people fiercely, but it also knows how to show weakness and act obediently.
If his master ignores him, he will rush forward to please him, as if he is the one who has suffered a great injustice; if his master shows him a little kindness, he will become more demanding and whinge for more.
But if his master really abandons him, he will bare his fangs and bite the person to death. When he gets angry, he will no longer be as obedient as usual.
Fierce, fierce, unruly and difficult to tame.
At night, Ling Wan watched Mr. Shen skillfully take out bedding from the cabinet and make a bed on the floor, with a hint of moisture in her eyes.
"Chen Cong." She sat on the bed, her hands folded on her knees, her black hair shining with a satin luster.
"I'm going to sleep here. Like always, I won't bother you." Chen Cong pursed her lips, her lips red and moist. Looking at a beauty under the lamp, it's true that beauties are full of charm.
"I'm not asking you to leave." Ling Wan's face was sullen. She didn't realize it herself. She seemed to be refusing to speak to Chen Cong, but in reality, a smile often flickered in her eyes when she looked at him.
Chen Cong glanced at her, said "oh" obediently, sat down, and rubbed her legs as usual.
Ling Wan broke away and cleared her throat: "I have something serious to tell you."
Business. Chen Cong's eyes darkened a little, but only for a moment, and he continued to kneel down, his posture very respectful.
"What did you do to Chen Huaijin?" This was the first time in so many days that Ling Wan mentioned his eldest son to him.
In fact, she had wanted to ask this before. But after thinking about it, they were father and son after all, and Chen Cong would not harm his life.
"He's locked up. Let him reflect for a while." Chen Cong lowered his eyes, avoiding the main point.
Ling Wan frowned, but she didn't know what to say.
She changed the question: "Chen Cong, I mean, if, if you find out that Shen Huaijin and I have an affair, what will you do?"
She was curious to know, even if the assumption was false.
Chen Cong didn't answer her this time, but the veins on his neck bulged.
"Will you kill me?" Ling Wan was curious. Mr. Shen was a man of character. If he wanted her dead, even a single blow would be mercy.
Chen Cong still didn't say anything, and his long black eyelashes fluttered slightly.
"I think so," Ling Wan answered for him, smiling knowingly. "You're a self-centered, vindictive person."
"What you believe belongs to you is yours, and no one else is allowed to covet or touch it. Similarly, you do not allow your things to have second thoughts about you. If they do, you would rather kill them yourself, even if you love them dearly."
"You are a piece of shit." Chen Cong raised his eyes, glanced at her, and then lowered his eyes again.
"Oh? If I'm not yours, then what am I?" Ling Wan laughed in anger.
"It's mine, Lingwan." Chen Cong emphasized the word "mine", which seemed to carry a bit of blood.
He was still quibbling over words. Ling Wan couldn't help but kick him: "Okay. Then if your Ling Wan and Shen Huaijin had an affair, would you kill her?"
Chen Cong was silent. After a while, he said softly, "I don't know. Because you and Shen Huaijin don't have any private relationship."
This is the truth. If Mr. Shen said "no", he would be lying to her.
But because it was the truth, Ling Wan couldn't help but kicked him again.
This question has no answer because the assumption is invalid. She had no intention of dwelling on this invalid question, because the next question was what she really wanted to ask.
"Tell me the truth, then why did you allow Shen Huaijin to imprison your Ling Wan?" She also emphasized the word "your" with extra emphasis, with a hint of gritting her teeth.
Shen Cong's eyelashes trembled again, but he said nothing.
Ling Wan kicked him again: "If you don't tell me this time, there won't be a next time, because I won't ask, and I won't listen."
Chen Cong pursed his lips again, and after a long while, he raised his eyes and spoke awkwardly.
"I only found out that you were imprisoned by Shen Huaijin after the palace coup was over."
"I planted a few people in his secret guard. My original intention was to feel that he was still young when he formed his own secret guard, and he needed someone to watch over him to feel at ease."
"When the secret guards reported me, I wasn't in a good condition either. I told you before that if I died, I would take you with me. But when I was faced with the decision, I hesitated and couldn't bear to leave."
"I'm so much older than you. I owe you for marrying me. I think since Shen Huaijin can do this much for you, why not let me fulfill your wish."
"But I'm unwilling to fulfill your wish. You are mine. I don't know what to do."
"The secret guards come to report your situation in the villa every day. When I heard you and Shen Huaijin say that you have feelings for me, my hope was ignited."
"But while I had hope, I was afraid you might waver. So I didn't take any action, and only had someone observe you secretly."
"So you didn't come to save me until the suspicion in your heart completely disappeared?" Ling Wan didn't dare to kick again. She snorted coldly and turned her face away.
Chen Cong hummed.
"So, if you found out that Shen Huaijin and I really had a private relationship, would you actually help us? Or, because you were in a bad situation at that time, you entrusted me to Shen Huaijin in disguise?"
Chen Cong said nothing.
"Asshole, you wanted to take me with you even when you died!" Ling Wan was defeated in the silent duel. Unable to fight or kick, she could only bite.
The canine teeth bit into the shoulder flesh, causing Ling Wan to bite him with all her might.
Chen Cong's body shook slightly, and then he stroked her back again and again.
He said, "I want to never allow you to leave me, but Ling Wan, that's just what I want. I can't control many things."
How could she not control herself? The ruthless Minister of History, the powerful Right Prime Minister, she was so afraid of pain that she would surrender with just a little bit of his power.
"You're a bastard! If I don't ask, you won't tell me?!" If she hadn't calmed down and realized something was wrong, and asked Shen Qing, she wouldn't have known that the two months she was imprisoned were the two months when Shen Cong's life was in danger.
Why, if you don't want him to be a widow, then imitate the Xiongnu Tatar custom and marry her to your eldest son?
"I don't want you to know that there are times when I'm powerless." Chen Cong smiled wanly. For example, time, death, accidents. There were so many things he didn't want to do but couldn't do anything about.
"Bastard, bastard, bastard!" Ling Wan didn't know what to say, so she could only bite him randomly.
But she didn't know how she ended up being bitten back by Chen Cong and falling onto the bed.
"It takes a hundred days to heal a broken bone. Your health is more important... Let's not do that." In the moment of confusion and passion, Ling Wan took advantage of the last bit of clarity in her mind to push him.
"Doctor Liu said a long time ago that there's nothing wrong." Chen Cong leaned down, taking care of her body, his movements gentle and careful.
"I..." Ling Wan blushed immediately and said angrily, "Then... I——"
"I've also asked the imperial physician, and he said that when doing this now, just pay attention to the posture and be careful. Physical and mental pleasure is good for the health of you and the child." Chen Cong picked her up, and his previous pitiful dog look disappeared. He licked the place he had been thinking about for a long time, bit by bit.
"Well... then, you better be careful." Ling Wan's five fingers tightened in vain, she could no longer control herself, and the sound of water flowed out.

There is infinite spring love in the bedroom.
