Chapter 358 Call Out a Pleasant Sound
He quickly scanned the document, and when he saw Shen Ci'an's elegant and powerful signature and seal at the bottom, a faint light slowly rippled in his usually cold eyes, as if they were filled with stars.
"Shen Ci'an has agreed to a divorce with you?"
His voice trembled with excitement.
He had originally thought that Shen Ci'an would not give up so easily, and he was prepared to go through a lot of trouble.
Unexpectedly, he had already written a letter of divorce.
Doesn't that mean that Azhi will be a free person soon?
The thought made him unable to stop laughing, and his usually tightly pursed lips uncontrollably curled up.
After holding onto this obsession for so long, I finally glimpsed the light of day in this instant.
If Jiang Zhi hadn't been injured, he would have hugged her tightly and let her know the joy in his heart.
At this moment, Qingxing returned with her writing brush, ink, paper, and inkstone.
Seeing Lu Yuan there, she wasn't surprised at all; she simply calmly arranged the things on the stone table.
These people are always around the lady.
She's already used to it.
Upon seeing the brush and ink, Lu Yuan could not hide his excitement. "You want to sign? I'll grind the ink for you."
He then turned to Qingxing and instructed her, "Go and fetch the inkpad."
Qingxing looked at Jiang Zhi with a questioning gaze, puzzled.
Jiang Zhi suddenly felt a headache coming on.
She knew that if Lu Yuan saw her, she wouldn't be able to get away with it so easily.
She shook her head. "No need, I'm not planning to sign yet."
Lu Yuan was taken aback for a moment, "Why?"
He glanced at Qingxing and gestured for her to go down first.
Seeing that Jiang Zhi did not object, Qingxing curtsied and took her leave.
Lu Yuan turned her wheelchair around to face him, bent down and squatted down to look her in the eye. "You said you haven't planned to sign yet, meaning you'll sign it later?"
Jiang Zhi didn't dare to look him in the eye, and only rubbed her temples. "I haven't thought about it yet."
A hint of disappointment flashed in Lu Yuan's eyes, and his earlier joy subsided.
He knew that Jiang Zhi had an extraordinary affection for Shen Ci'an.
But since Shen Ci'an has already given her a letter of divorce, it's only a matter of time before Jiang Zhi and he divorce.
Especially at times like these, you must not rush her.
Otherwise, if it angers Jiang Zhi, it would be a loss rather than a gain.
He exhaled a few breaths from his chest. "Okay, take your time to think it over. I can wait."
Jiang Zhi couldn't help but feel helpless. "Who made you wait? I never said that I had to remarry immediately after the divorce."
She's not that desperate to get married, is she?
“Hmm, no rush,” Lu Yuan said, like an extremely patient hunter. “Anyway, I won’t let you marry anyone else but me.”
Allowing her to marry Shen Ci'an was the biggest mistake he ever made.
If she dares to talk about marriage with someone else, he wouldn't mind just snatching her away and running off with her.
Jiang Zhi didn't know what to say to him, "You're just a scoundrel."
"Hmm," Lu Yuan replied dismissively to her assessment, cupping the back of her head and forcing her closer before giving her a heavy kiss on the lips. "So, what does A-Zhi plan to do?"
“It’s nothing,” Jiang Zhi pushed him away and wiped her lips. “If Lord Lu has nothing else to do, you should leave quickly. The teacher will be waking up soon.”
The Master is currently in poor health and cannot withstand any stimulation. If he sees Lu Yuan here, he will surely become uneasy again.
However, Lu Yuan moved through the Shen Mansion as if it were empty; Ru Ying and An Yue were no match for him and could not stop him at all.
Lu Yuan chuckled briefly, "You're already complaining? You weren't like this the day you got drunk at the Lu residence. You were very well-behaved, and when I fed you, you kept holding it in your mouth and wouldn't let go."
Jiang Zhi froze, her cheeks instantly turning bright red, both ashamed and annoyed. "Lu Yuan, shut up! Don't say another word!"
"Alright, alright, I won't say anything," Lu Yuan said, afraid of really angering her, and decided to stop while he was ahead. "Does your maid change your dressings every day? I'll leave after I've checked your injuries."
As he spoke, he lifted her skirt.
His movements were so calm and composed that Jiang Zhi quickly pressed his hand down, saying, "No need, the wound has already scabbed over, it will heal in a few more days, don't worry."
Lu Yuan looked straight at her and said, "I'm worried."
He was about to make a move again.
Jiang Zhi was so anxious she almost stood up from her wheelchair. "No, no, this is in the yard! I'm going to get angry if you keep doing this!"
Lu Yuan paused, noticing that the blush on her cheeks had not yet faded, her pupils were wet and eager, and her bright red lips parted, exuding an indescribable allure.
His Adam's apple bobbed uncontrollably. "Fine, if you don't want to, I won't watch it, but—"
Lu Yuan narrowed his eyes, his voice hoarse, "If you call me something nice, I'll leave."
Jiang Zhi clutched her skirt, knowing what he wanted to hear.
Although I didn't want him to succeed so easily, this was the Shen residence, and if we delayed any longer, the teacher might really see us.
So she lowered her head and called out in a barely audible voice, "My husband."
"What? I didn't hear you."
Lu Yuan looked at her with a half-smile.
Jiang Zhi knew that with his sharp hearing, he must have heard it, and that he was doing it on purpose, so she couldn't help but glare at him.
Lu Yuan smiled and sat down leisurely on the stone bench. "It's alright, A-Zhi can take her time to prepare. I'm not in a hurry."
The more he acted this way, the less Jiang Zhi wanted him to have his way.
Otherwise, you'll only be under his control from now on, and you won't be able to control him at all.
Jiang Zhi suddenly smiled and beckoned to him.
Lu Yuan raised an eyebrow and moved closer. Jiang Zhi slowly brought her lips to his ear and suddenly bit his earlobe.
A tingling sensation mixed with a slight pain instantly spread throughout his body. Lu Yuan felt half of his face go numb, and his whole body trembled for a moment. He looked at her in surprise.
"If Lord Lu didn't hear that, then he might as well not have these ears."
She raised her eyebrows at him defiantly.
Lu Yuan pressed his tongue against his back teeth and let out a laugh from his chest. "Azhi, this is not a wise move."
He stood up, casting a broad shadow over her, like a towering mountain pressing down on her, carrying an unyielding sense of oppression.
Jiang Zhi had just opened her lips when Lu Yuan reached out, lifted her chin, and leaned down to kiss her.
At this moment, Qingxing suddenly rushed in, lifting her skirt, "Madam, Madam... um."
Lu Yuan was abruptly interrupted, his face turning as cold as if covered with a layer of frost.
Jiang Zhi breathed a sigh of relief, pushed him away, and asked, "Qingxing, what's wrong? Why are you in such a panic?"
Qingxing, ignoring Lu Yuan's murderous glare, took a breath and said, "News just came from the dock: Young Master and Miss are coming to Kyoto from Xuzhou, and their ship will be docking soon!"
"Really?" Jiang Zhi's face lit up with surprise.
It's Cousin Shaoyuan and Cousin Fengyuan!
