Chapter 251 Miss, I'm Really Not Dirty
Late at night, the Lingfeng courtyard was brightly lit.
Stepping into the yard again, Xiao Qinghe felt a little unfamiliar. The few months he had lived here seemed like a nightmare.
In the room, Wei Lingze was lying on the bed with a high fever, his lips were burnt and cracked. As Yun said, he kept calling her.
When Xiao Qinghe entered the room, Yun immediately asked the maid to leave.
Xiao Qinghe took the handkerchief, cleaned it, and placed it on Wei Lingze's forehead again. When he called her name again, she said, "Wei Lingze, it's me."
As if there really was some magic, after a while, Wei Lingze actually opened his eyes: "He'er, is it really you?"
As he asked the question, Wei Lingze stretched out his hand, wanting to touch Xiao Qinghe's face, but Xiao Qinghe turned her head away.
Wei Lingze's hand froze in the air. After a moment, he withdrew it and said bitterly, "It's true. If it were a dream, He'er would not avoid me."
Wei Lingze's face was pale, he had a high fever, his hair was wet with sweat and stuck to his temples, he looked very pitiful when he said this.
Xiao Qinghe didn't feel distressed, but simply said, "Mother said you were very ill and was worried that something might happen to you, so she came to the Xiao family and begged me to come and see you. If you're awake, we can talk."
Although Xiao Qinghe's voice was gentle, it revealed a sense of alienation and determination. Wei Lingze's heart tightened and he clenched his fists: "What do you want to talk about?"
"Let's get divorced."
Xiao Qinghe opened her mouth, but as soon as she finished speaking, Wei Lingze rejected her: "Impossible!"
This topic excited Wei Lingze. He ignored the injury on his back and forced himself to sit up. "If you mind that woman and the illegitimate child, I can make them disappear from this world forever. From now on, I will love you and protect you. I will never lose control of my emotions and hurt you again."
"You've promised several times that you wouldn't hurt me, but have you done it?" Xiao Qinghe asked back, and before Wei Lingze could answer, he asked again, "When you said make them disappear, did you mean kill them? They say the child is innocent, and the woman is innocent too. You're about to kill two people with just one word. Wei Lingze, don't you think you're scary?"
What's more, the woman and the child were just fabricated by his aunt. He didn't dare to admit that he had any dirty thoughts about his aunt, so he wanted to find an innocent mother and child to pay for his mistakes. This was simply a disregard for human life.
Xiao Qinghe now felt that Wei Lingze was cowardly and despicable, so disgusting that she could no longer feel any love for him.
The disappointment in Xiao Qinghe's tone and the disgust in his eyes deeply hurt Wei Lingze. He quickly changed his words: "I can also not kill them, but just send them away, far away. I promise that they will never appear in front of you again. As long as we don't divorce, I will listen to whatever you say in the future."
Wei Lingze's attitude was very humble, almost humble, but Xiao Qinghe became more and more disappointed.
In order to keep her by his side, he said all the nice things, but never said that he was wrong.
Until now, all he could think about was himself.
After seeing the truth, Xiao Qinghe no longer hesitated and stood up directly: "I have made up my mind. If you don't want to divorce, don't blame the Xiao family for being tough. Then both families will have a bad quarrel."
After Xiao Qinghe finished speaking, she turned and left. Wei Lingze quickly got out of bed and grabbed her arm.
He had been beaten with a stick in the court, and the wound on his back was quite serious. He was running a fever and very weak. Not only did he not hold Xiao Qinghe back, but he was dragged forward by Xiao Qinghe and bumped into the candlestick next to him.
There was a crackling sound, and the next moment, the door was kicked open. Xiao Yechen came to Xiao Qinghe with a sword in hand and protected her behind him.
Yun also came to Wei Lingze immediately: "Ze'er, what happened? Why did you get out of bed?"
The wound on his back was affected, and Wei Lingze frowned in pain, his face turning even paler. But when he saw Xiao Yechen, he ignored the pain and felt only rage burning in his chest: "I was talking to He'er, what are you doing barging in here?"
Xiao Yechen didn't answer Wei Lingze's question. He just turned his head and asked Xiao Qinghe, "Is the young lady okay?"
"It's nothing, I just bumped into the candlestick accidentally, that's all. Let's go."
Xiao Qinghe didn't want to argue any further, but Wei Lingze refused to give up. He was irritated by the hostility in Xiao Yechen's eyes and his protective attitude towards Xiao Qinghe, and blurted out: "He'er, you insist on divorcing me, is it because you like him? I tell you, he has sold his male beauty in Wuyou Pavilion countless times, and his body is dirty. Don't be fooled by him, he..."
Before Wei Lingze could finish his words, Xiao Yechen pointed his sword at his throat with murderous intent.
Yun was afraid that Xiao Yechen would really hurt someone, so she started shouting for help. Seeing that the situation was about to get out of control, Xiao Qinghe tugged at Xiao Yechen's clothes and said, "Brother, it's late. I want to go home."
The word "brother" made Xiao Yechen suppress his murderous intent.
He put away his sword and walked out with Xiao Qinghe as his guard. Wei Lingze caught up with them again: "No, He'er, you can't leave..."
As Wei Lingze took a step forward, Xiao Yechen turned around and swung his sword, tearing his clothes and leaving a bloody mark on his face. "If you take another step forward, I'll kill you!"
Xiao Yechen's tone was extremely cold and full of murderous intent, without any intention of joking.
Yun quickly hugged Wei Lingze and said, "Ze'er, stop making trouble. It's great that He'er can come to see you. When you recover from your injury, we will go to the Xiao family to pick her up. I beg you, okay?"
Xiao Qinghe was also afraid that Xiao Yechen would really kill Wei Lingze, so she took advantage of the time when Yun stopped Wei Lingze to pull Xiao Yechen away.
Watching the two people's backs as they left, Wei Lingze suddenly remembered that Xiao Qinghe had tried to dissuade him in this way several times when he got angry before. He didn't think much of it at the time, but now seeing Xiao Qinghe doing the same thing to Xiao Yechen, he realized what he had lost.
A huge heartache swept over him, a fishy-sweet taste surged in Wei Lingze's throat, and he tilted his head and spat out a mouthful of blood.
Yun was horrified by what she saw and quickly asked someone to come in and serve her.
Elsewhere, Xiao Qinghe pulled Xiao Yechen out of the Wei family's gate and then let go. She couldn't help but say, "The Wei family wouldn't dare to force me to stay. You just scared Wei Lingze, but you shouldn't have hurt him. He already knows you work at Wuyou Pavilion. Even if you're skilled and not afraid of him, what if he deliberately picks on Wuyou Pavilion in the future?"
Xiao Qinghe's words were full of worry, but Xiao Yechen didn't hear a single word she said. After she finished speaking, he said word by word: "Although I am the head of Wuyou Pavilion, I have never sold my male beauty. No woman has ever touched me."
Unlike the murderous confrontation with Wei Lingze just now, Xiao Yechen now had his eyebrows lowered and had no momentum at all.
Inexplicably, it looked like a tamed wolf, wagging its tail in grievance.
Xiao Qinghe's eyelids twitched slightly. She didn't know how to respond for a moment, so she turned around and fled into the carriage. Just as she was about to breathe a sigh of relief, the curtain was lifted and Xiao Yechen stood outside, insisting, "Miss, I'm really not dirty."
Xiao Qinghe clutched the handkerchief tightly and replied as calmly as possible, "I understand."
