Qin Shuyu looked at the man in front of her calmly.
Her childhood sweetheart, the husband she had known for many years, the one she had been looking forward to spending the rest of her life with since she was a child, the handsome face that would call her Yu'er in her memory suddenly became hideous.
Qin Shuyu felt extremely unfamiliar with Xie Yuchuan's furious expression.
When Xie Yuchuan turned the entire mansion upside down for Chen Wei, Qin Shuyu comforted himself that it was just the novelty of it, and said that his liking for her was just the love between a young and ignorant brother and sister, Qin Shuyu could only smile bitterly.
But now——
She suddenly discovered.
It was as if she had never really known the person in front of her.
Qin Shuyu couldn't describe the feeling in his heart, but it didn't seem very uncomfortable.
She thought for a moment, then stood up and saluted, saying dignifiedly and politely, "It was indeed my order to change the script for today's performance."
"Does the Marquis feel that there is something wrong?"
"It's not Wen Lan's fault that she married two husbands. Ning Feng coaxed her into marriage out of greed for fame and fortune. Why can't she marry again?"
"I see that the guests present today all sincerely wish Wen Lan happiness again and haven't said much. Why is the Marquis suddenly so angry? What is he angry about?"
“Are you angry that Miss Shen’s path is smooth, or are you angry that I refuted your reputation?”
It would have been better if Qin Shuyu didn’t point it out!
As soon as it became clear, Xie Yuchuan remembered that Qin Shuyu had been against him everywhere today!
Especially in the back garden, Zhao Xiangrong's innocence was almost defiled by Master Dong, and Qin Shuyu actually stood up and gave him a divorce letter secretly!
Especially the green eyes his classmates gave him, and Chen Wei moving further and further away from him. In such a huge mansion, he couldn't even make a decision on the script?
Under the pressure of multiple frustrations and unhappy emotions, Xie Yuchuan was so angry that his face turned blue: "Since when did you have such absurd and unfaithful thoughts!"
"The Qin family is a family of scholars, and their ancestors have been loyal and righteous officials for generations. Is this how your mother taught her daughter?"
"Where are your previous upbringing and sense of propriety? Where are the rules and the three obediences and four virtues you learned before getting married? Could it be that they were all fake? In fact, you are just a lowly person at heart!"
"Otherwise, how could you think that such a play about debauchery, infidelity, and a woman marrying two men was flawless? The scandal that unfolded today is truly a disgrace to this marquis!"
"............"
Qin Shuyu's head was buzzing as he didn't hear what was said next.
She just looked at Xie Yuchuan in shock. She had never expected that Xie Yuchuan, who was known to be upright and gentle, would say such sharp words.
Debauchery, self-debasement, infidelity...
turn out to be.
Is that how he thinks of himself?
Qin Shuyu's eyes when looking at Xie Yuchuan changed from shock to disappointment to shame and anger. In just a short moment, he changed several emotions.
No matter how well-educated he was, it all broke at this moment. Qin Shuyu's lowered fingers trembled slightly, and he laughed mercilessly: "Face?"
"Does the Marquis' Mansion still have any face?"
"When your private affair with Chen Wei became known throughout the capital, did you care about your reputation?"
"Even though you held a lingerie show outside, making the whole capital laugh at you and almost reporting it to the police, did you ever care about your face at that time?"
"When you wanted to divorce me for Chen Wei and be together forever, and when your mother was so angry that she went to the Buddhist temple to rest, did you ever care about the reputation of the Marquisate?"
"When you were not yet a marquis, you used the resources of my Qin family to climb up the ladder. Did you ever care about your face?!"
"Xie Yuchuan, anyone can say that I have no upbringing, but you can't! If it weren't for the Qin family paving the way, how could you have the status of a marquis today!"
Every word Qin Shuyu said was like countless needles piercing Xie Yuchuan.
These words were tacitly acknowledged secrets by all the nobles in the capital. Xie Yuchuan knew in his heart how he climbed to the top, but no one dared to say this to his face.
After all, men have to maintain their dignity!
Climbing up by relying on the resources of your father-in-law's family is not a bright thing at all!
Qin Shuyu's words undoubtedly touched Xie Yuchuan's sore spot.
He glared at Qin Shuyu angrily, his eyes red with a thick fire of shame and anger. Suddenly, he raised his hand and slapped Qin Shuyu!
“Bang!”
Xie Yuchuan was so angry that he was sweating all over. He slapped Qin Shuyu mercilessly, making him see stars and fall to the ground.
"Madam!" Su Zhu was so scared that her face turned pale. She wanted to go forward to help but did not dare to.
Qin Shuyu's head was buzzing, she felt a burning pain on her face, and everything in front of her eyes was dark. It took a while for her vision to become clear.
After a few seconds, Xie Yuchuan's gloomy eyes were reflected in his pupils. This person looked down at him with indifference, his voice cold and ruthless:
"Qin Shuyu, shut up!"
"Do you really think the Qin family has done me such a great favor? Isn't it just that they sent me to the border to make meritorious contributions? If your Qin family were truly capable, why would they be so eager to arrange a marriage with me?"
"You're so proud of something that's mutually beneficial, you're crazy!"
"You should reflect on yourself in the courtyard for the next month. Mother is almost done recuperating now, so I'll leave the affairs of the Marquis' Mansion to her. You don't have to worry about them anymore!"
