Chapter 15: Going Home for Divorce
Mu Yuqing immediately spotted the yelling He Yaozu and looked at him with disdain: "What are you doing here? You're disturbing my sleep so early in the morning."
He Yaozu quickly adjusted his mood and looked at Mu Yuqing with a wronged look on his face: "I heard that you fainted, Xiaoyu, so I wanted to come and see you."
"Heh," Mu Yuqing snorted coldly, "I have nothing to say about someone like you who never speaks a word of truth. Since you're here today, I'd like to say goodbye to you. We will have no relationship from now on."
"Break up?" He Yaozu couldn't accept it. "Did my mom say something to you? Don't listen to her. She doesn't know anything. If she accidentally makes you angry, I'll ask her to apologize to you."
He had finally managed to climb up the ladder of the Mu family. As long as he married Mu Yuqing, his future would be smooth sailing. How could he give up so easily?
Seeing him putting all the blame on his mother, Mu Yuqing just felt ridiculous. Why didn't she realize that he was such a person at the beginning? She looked down at He Yaozu.
"There's no room for negotiation. You'd better leave as soon as possible to save your dignity."
When they looked at each other, He Yaozu was hurt by the indifference in her eyes. Knowing that if he continued to pester her today, it would only make things worse, he could only choose to leave temporarily.
"I'm sorry to bother you all today."
He looked up at Mu Yuqing, his eyes filled with reluctance: "Xiaoyu, if you change your mind, I will always be here waiting for you."
He Yaozu left in disgrace.
Jiang Chu looked at his back with a heavy expression.
Mu Jianguo followed her gaze but saw nothing: "Master Jiang, did you find anything?"
"He's closely related to Ling Qianjin's matter," Jiang Chu said. "The ghost who tried to take over Miss Mu's body is related to him by blood."
"He just kept shouting that he had to see Miss Mu because he had calculated that the evil spirit was inside Miss Mu's body."
"The evil ghost failed yesterday, and now he's probably going back to ask what happened."
Mu Yuqing had just come down from upstairs when she heard Jiang Chu's explanation. She couldn't help but feel a chill down her spine: "If Master Jiang hadn't shown up in time, he would have succeeded."
Mu Jianguo didn't dare to think about the consequences of letting such a vicious person into the Mu family.
"And even if we discover something's wrong with him, the evil spirit occupying Xiaoyu's body will insist on marrying him."
"We would think Xiaoyu had been bewitched by He Yaozu and never imagined that she had been replaced by an evil spirit."
Jiang Chu took out five triangular amulets from his bag and said, "This is the yellow amulet I promised you. Until I resolve the issue with He Yaozu, your family must not leave it."
"And I promised to change your Feng Shui layout. Bring me the blueprints of your house and I'll draw it for you."
It took a long time to finally resolve the Mu family's affairs.
Before leaving, Mu Yuqing thought of something strange: "The villagers in Xinghua Village seem to be very rich. Their houses are very tall and neatly built."
In this day and age, such buildings are impossible to exist in remote rural areas.
Two words flashed through Jiang Chu's mind - formation.
Xinghua Village was shrouded in an unknown huge formation. No wonder the result of her divination was a bad omen.
If you enter rashly, you may not be able to get out.
Jiang Chu returned to the Fu family, rubbed his aching eyebrows, and fell asleep.
My spiritual energy has been overdrawn, my emotions have fluctuated too much, and I have calculated my own fortune twice. If I don’t rest, my body will collapse.
H City
After finishing a training session, everyone went to the cafeteria to eat, chatting and laughing.
There were two people who didn't fit in.
Song Sui bumped into Fu Yuanzhou next to him and said, "I heard that if you make another contribution, you can be promoted to lieutenant colonel. You have only been in the army for a few years."
Fu Yuanzhou smelled the sweat on his body and frowned: "Stay away from me."
"Hey." Song Sui was speechless. "I didn't see you dislike it when we were training together. You're such a germaphobe."
"By the way, when will you let us meet your sister-in-law? I heard she's very beautiful."
Mentioning Jiang Chu, Fu Yuanzhou's mind flashed back to the hysterical figure at the wedding, and he felt a headache: "She won't come, and there is no need for you to see her."
Song Sui was keenly aware of the gossip here: "I didn't go to the wedding that day because I had a mission. When I came back, I asked you all about it, but you were all very secretive. So what exactly happened?"
There have been a lot of activities on the other side in the past two months, and his workload has increased dramatically. It was not until today that he could take a breath and had time to chat with Fu Yuanzhou.
"Stop asking." Fu Yuanzhou glanced at him coldly and left.
Song Sui was left where he was, snorting coldly: "Do you really think I won't know if you don't tell me? At worst, I can ask someone else."
Fu Yuanzhou went to the post office and picked up the letter from the Fu family.
Tao Wan wrote about things like asking him to take care of his health, and occasionally mentioned the good things Jiang Chu had done during this period.
Fu Yuanzhou got a headache when he saw this name.
If he had known this would happen, he would have canceled the engagement no matter what.
Thinking back to his wedding night, Fu Yuanzhou just felt disgusted.
He didn't understand. If Jiang Chu didn't like him, why would he drug him?
She claimed that the engagement prevented her from pursuing love and disrupted the wedding, then turned around and drugged him to force him to submit.
Even though Jiang Chu just grabbed his arm and before he could do anything else, Fu Yuanzhou ran away.
But the sticky feeling of his body being touched still made him feel nauseous even after two months.
I'll divorce him when he comes home!
When Jiang Chu woke up, it was already afternoon. She planned to go to the night market and find some jade to make some magical instruments.
Fu Ciyan was about to call Jiang Chu when he saw someone coming down. His eyes lit up: "Sister-in-law, come quickly. We have beef today."
Tao Wan was surprised: "Did you take the wrong medicine today?"
Fu Ciyan really hates Jiang Chu. It’s good enough that she doesn’t mock her. Why is she so enthusiastic today?
Fu Ciyan had promised Jiang Chu not to tell anyone about what happened that night, so she could only be vague: "I just suddenly felt that my sister-in-law is a kind person. I misunderstood her before."
Jiang Chu had just woken up and his head was still a little groggy. He nodded to Fu Ciyan as a greeting and started eating with his chopsticks.
I feel a little sad. It’s good to be young. I can still have so much energy even though I didn’t sleep at night.
Jiang Chu didn’t know that it wasn’t that Fu Ciyan had energy, but that he had slept all day at school.
In the middle of the meal, the nanny came in with a letter: "Madam, this is a letter from Butler Zhang."
Tao Wan then remembered that Butler Zhang had asked for leave and went home yesterday.
When she opened it, she saw that the content was roughly that her mother at home might not hold on for much longer and he wanted to accompany her through her final moments.
There is nothing wrong with these, except for the last sentence.
"Thank you very much, Madam. If it weren't for you, I'm afraid I wouldn't have been able to see my mother for the last time."
Tao Wan said to Jiang Chu, "What did you say to Butler Zhang? He said he would repay you when he came back."
Jiang Chu yawned, then she remembered the fortune she had told Butler Zhang yesterday: "Nothing, just a reminder to him."
Tao Wan felt as uncomfortable as if she was being scratched by a cat. She really wanted to know, but she couldn't lower herself to ask Jiang Chu.
