Wen Wan nodded anxiously, "Yes, yes, let me go! No, get out of here and let my maid in!"
Xu Baofu narrowed his eyes and suddenly let out two cold laughs.
When Wen Wan saw his smile, she felt a chill run down her spine and quickly reached out to push him away.
"Xu Baofu, let me go! Do you hear me?!"
Xu Baofu grabbed her hand and pressed it down, making her unable to move.
"Xiaoqing, we've known each other for over ten years. Do you think I don't know your character? You're trying to seduce me again so you can find a rich and handsome husband, aren't you? Dream on."
Xu Qing was her original name.
Wen Wan was even more anxious because he still didn't believe her. She felt the changes in his body and her face was filled with horror.
"I'm not lying to you, brother. If you don't believe me, go back and ask Dad. Everything I said is true!"
The count's position and mountains of gold and silver were right in front of him.
Xu Baofu had no time to think about such things.
Everyone assumed that this little bitch was deliberately stalling for time.
"Let me tell you, Wen Wan, you'll never get rid of me in this lifetime. Stop resisting. Be my woman, and we'll have the Marquis's mansion under our control. You won't have to be afraid of your parents anymore, will you?"
He chuckled and buried his head in his food.
Wen Wan was so frightened that her soul almost left her body. She suddenly felt a chill on her chest, and her snow-white clothes were instantly exposed to the air, causing her pupils to shrink.
Xu Baofu was breathing rapidly. In a daze, he grabbed at her skirt a couple of times and then tried to pull it off.
Something suddenly flashed through Wen Wan's mind, and she screamed in a low voice.
"I have evidence! I have evidence! I have evidence to prove that we are siblings!"
Xu Baofu stopped what he was doing, looked up at him, and squinted again.
Wen Wan was afraid that he would do something reckless again, so she quickly said, "Do you remember what Father said before? Our ancestors were also a large clan, but they were separated due to war."
Xu Baofu frowned. "What does this have to do with what you're trying to say? Don't try to stall for time. Let me tell you, it's useless."
Wen Wan panicked. "No, no, Father also said that people of our clan all have cracked nails. He also said that if we ever see someone with cracked nails, they might be a relative of ours. You can look at your toenails and mine; we are the same!"
Xu Baofu straightened up, his expression one of surprise and doubt.
He had heard these words before, but only when he was a child, from his grandfather. The old man always liked to nag him about them when he was free.
He looked at her with some uncertainty.
Wen Wan said urgently, "Look, look now!"
Xu Baofu was also a little suspicious at this point, so he picked up her foot and pulled off her sock.
Sure enough, I could see that both big toenails had cracks.
He stared blankly, then suddenly his pupils contracted and he stood up abruptly.
"You, you're really my sister?"
Wen Wan was released and struggled to raise her hand to pull at her clothes to cover her exposed chest. Her face flushed red with anger, shame, and rage.
"Of course I am!"
Xu Baofu looked stiff, and his mind was still a little muddled.
Suddenly, he shook his head. "That's not right either. Who can really guarantee that only people with the surname Xu have the Cracked Armor? Perhaps Marquis Anyuan has it too."
Wen Wan was so angry at his stubbornness that she almost vomited blood.
"I swear, if I'm lying to you, may I die a horrible death, is that alright?"
Xu Baofu frowned, staring intently at him, still somewhat hesitant.
"So, Wenrou is the legitimate daughter of the Marquis of Anyuan? And you're the imposter?"
Wen Wan glared at him fiercely, but fearing she might upset him further, she could only try to coax him.
"Go out first and call my maid in. I'll explain everything to you in detail later. If you still don't believe me, I can have someone bring Father here so we can confront each other."
She had already said so much, so even if Xu Baofu didn't believe her, he couldn't continue.
He was just a little unwilling to accept it.
If he cannot become the son-in-law of the Earl's family, he will not be able to inherit the title.
All the previous plans came to nothing.
Suddenly, he thought of something, and his eyes lit up.
Seeing that he stood still, Wen Wan became even angrier, almost grinding her teeth to powder.
"What are you still standing there for? Get out of here!"
To everyone's surprise, Xu Baofu sat back on the bed and said excitedly.
"If what you say is true, then we should be together even more."
"What!"
Wen Wan stared at him in astonishment, her eyes wide with disbelief, her voice tinged with a sense of collapse.
Do you know what you're saying?
Xu Baofu rubbed his hands together and chuckled, "Don't rush, I mean we should pretend to be together. That way, my brother and I can join forces and take over the Earl's mansion."
Wen Wan stared at him, completely baffled as to what was going on in his head.
She gritted her teeth and emphasized it again.
"We're siblings!"
At this moment, she was filled with regret, thinking that she shouldn't have left this guy in the capital just to cause trouble for Wenrou.
Xu Baofu was afraid that she would shout too loudly and be heard by outsiders.
If the Earl's family finds out the truth, then everything will be lost.
He quickly covered her mouth.
Wen Wan thought he was up to something again and was so frightened that she struggled to get up.
Xu Baofu could only suppress her, "Shh, don't shout, or someone will hear us. If we really are siblings, wouldn't that be even better? Anyway, no one will know. As long as we fake our marriage, once those two old bastards are gone, I will be the Earl of Anyuan. Then I can continue to marry my wives and concubines, and you can keep the men you like. Our Xu family can also become glorious."
He became more and more excited as he thought about it, his greasy, fat body jiggling as he seemed to be imagining a future with a harem of wives and concubines.
Wen Wan was furious with him.
She's going to marry the Prince of Qu and become the Empress; how can she let him do whatever he wants?
With her mouth covered, she couldn't speak and could only struggle with muffled noises.
Suddenly, the maid's angry shouts rang out from outside.
What are you doing?
Both of them were startled by the sound and fell silent, listening intently.
"What are you doing? I'm here to catch her cheating, of course! That slut dared to cheat on me behind my back. I'll teach her a lesson."
Wen Wan widened her eyes, wanting to call Xu Baofu to get up.
The next moment, the maid screamed, and then the door was kicked open.
Xu Baofu finally remembered the forgotten matter and panicked a little.
He's making preparations for both scenarios today.
He first used medicine to make Wenwan his woman.
Then they'll send someone to catch them in the act of adultery. At that point, the Earl's family will have no choice but to admit it, for the sake of their reputation.
But I didn't expect things to go wrong in the middle.
He had momentarily forgotten about it.
But then he thought about it again, and it seemed that what he wanted now wasn't so different from what he actually wanted.
So not only did he stop panicking, but he also showed an excited smile on his face.
The thought of soon being able to move into the Earl's mansion and become a master filled him with excitement.
Looking at his crazy appearance, Wen Wan's eyes were filled with despair.
Just then, the person who rushed in kicked over the screen, revealing the two people on the bed, their clothes disheveled and their posture suggestive.
The maid rushed in, and upon seeing this, her pupils contracted.
Attracted by the commotion, the staff and customers inside the building who were peeking out to see what was going on couldn't help but exclaim "Oh~".
Wen Wan felt dizzy and quickly turned her head away, trying her best not to let others see her face.
At that moment, a metallic sweetness filled my mouth, and only two words echoed in my mind: "It's over."
