Chapter 535 Personal Letter
"It's over, Yanlang... I think... I'm pregnant..."
After Yun Chen said this, Yan Lang rolled his eyes, stuffed the bowl of water into her hand, and sat down at the table without looking back to continue eating.
Yun Chen hurriedly rinsed his mouth, followed, pulled Yan Lang's sleeve hard, and whispered:
"Really? I haven't had my period in two months, and I just vomited. I must be pregnant!"
Yan Lang had a cold face and said nothing. Yun Chen touched his flat belly blankly, lost in some bad memories.
Seeing Yun Chen was about to cry, Yan Lang finally couldn't stand it anymore, put down the spoon in his hand heavily, frowned and said:
"Do you think my reputation as a doctor was bought with money? I've taken your pulse countless times recently. How could I not know if you're pregnant? You're just weak and your period isn't coming. Your spleen and stomach are out of balance and you're nauseous. I think you've taken too many Soul-Eating Pills and are hallucinating. Tell me, how can an innocent woman get 'pregnant'?!"
Yun Chen didn't have time to care about Yan Lang's hellish dirty words. He pointed at himself with wide eyes:
"Innocent woman? Me? Yanlang, please explain yourself, you are lying! Could you have taken my pulse wrong? Can the title of 'miracle doctor' be bought? How do you buy it?"
Yun Chen asked several questions in a row, but Yan Lang was too lazy to pay attention to her and didn't want to say anything to her. He ordered the guards to eat quickly and continue on their journey after eating.
Yun Chen was shocked and puzzled, and couldn't figure it out no matter how hard he tried.
It wasn't that she doubted Yan Lang's medical skills. She had seen and experienced Yan Lang's level of being a "miracle doctor" with her own eyes.
Except for her, he always diagnosed other people only once and never made any mistakes.
But she couldn't believe it. Yan Lang actually said that she was still a virgin?
Then what did everything that happened between her and Yan Shijiu by the Green Water Pond matter?
Is she having a wet dream?
Damn it, Yun Chen was so upset that he couldn’t figure out this problem.
Even though the caravan was on its way out again and the carriage started to shake and run wildly, she still refused to let go and pestered Yan Lang to answer her questions.
"Yan Lang, let's think this over. Is the 'innocent woman' you're talking about me? Do you mean I'm still a young lady?"
"Nonsense!" Yan Lang threw out two words.
She asked again:
"Are you sure?"
"Sure!"
"Then swear."
“…”
"If you don't swear, there must be something fishy going on. Am I really pregnant? Are you lying to me because you're afraid I'll be sad?"
"Am I sick?! Are you a virgin? Why do you want me to swear?"
"No, how can I be a virgin? This shouldn't be the case!"
"What's the right or wrong thing to do in this kind of thing? Are you losing your memory or having a mental breakdown? Have you been drugged?"
"Yeah! He drugged me! It made me do this and that... Isn't that what it was like? Yanlang, what should that be like? What does it feel like?"
"How should I know?!"
"I remember that day I was in so much pain. When I woke up, I was covered in wounds!"
"You were beaten up, weren't you, sister? You weren't... raped by someone."
"Ah? But there's still blood on my thigh!"
After Yun Chen said this, Yan Lang could no longer listen.
When he was debating with Yun Chen just now, his face was already as red as a crab, and now it was even red from his ears to the base of his neck.
He lifted the carriage curtain and ordered the guards driving the horses:
"Stop the car! I need to get some fresh air!"
Although the guards didn't know what was going on and why they had to stop again shortly after starting, they still stopped the car as ordered.
Yan Lang jumped off the carriage without looking back. He went somewhere to calm down for a long time before returning. His expression was normal and he regained his indifferent look. He said unhappily:
"Although I'm a doctor, don't forget that I'm still a man. There are differences between men and women. Please stop bringing up these inexplicable topics."
Yun Chen agreed with an absentminded "hmm", his mind still stuck on this puzzling problem.
If Yanlang's pulse diagnosis is correct, no, it is definitely correct.
Then she is still a pure and innocent girl.
This means that everything that happened by the Green Water Pond that night was fake.
Thinking backwards like this, she began to recall what happened that day in detail:
After Yan Shijiu suddenly went crazy and killed all the guards, he suddenly kissed her and gave her an enchanting smile using the Yu family's unique aphrodisiac.
She was lying on the ground in collapse and despair, her consciousness blurred and confused due to the effects of the medicine. Yan Shijiu violently strangled her neck and she fell into a state of confusion.
She remembered the feeling of physical shame at the time, and also vaguely remembered Yan Shijiu lying on top of her.
As for what happened later, it was all in a half-conscious dream.
She didn't have a clear sense of what happened, how it started and ended.
Everything seemed like a nightmare. Based on the bruises all over her body and the blood on her thighs after waking up, she was convinced that her innocence had been taken away by Yan Shijiu.
I was too devastated to think about it.
But now thinking back carefully, her body was covered with scars, which should have been caused by the fight with Yan Shijiu before she was drugged.
The blood on her thigh, no, her entire back and clothes were covered in blood, and there were bloodstains on many parts of her body, all because she was lying on the ground and rubbed the blood of the guards' corpses on the ground.
She suddenly remembered another scene in her dream. After Yan Shijiu heard her calling Huo Gannian's name in tears, he sat aside with his head in his hands and covering his ears tightly, like a heartbroken abandoned person.
Could it be...
Yun Chen grasped a small memory from many years ago and seemed to have guessed the answer.
She looked at Yan Lang, who was trying to hide his embarrassment by reading a medical book, but in fact, the carriage was so bumpy that he couldn't see a single word, and spoke softly:
"Did he... leave something for me?"
Yan Lang's body stiffened, and he replied coldly, "No."
She knew immediately that he was lying.
"A normal person would ask 'who is he?' 'what is he?' Your answer of 'nothing' actually proves that he does exist."
She said sternly in a tone that would not allow Yan Lang to refuse:
"I want to know what it is, Yanlang, please give it to me, I deserve to know."
After a moment's silence, Yan Lang opened the compartment on the carriage that was usually used to store snacks and fruit wine.
Inside were all the things he had prepared for his escape, including gold, silver and other valuables.
In addition, there is an exquisite small box with a small seal with Yan Shijiu's seal on it.
"He sent me this half a month ago and asked me to pass it on to you. I originally planned not to give it to you unless you asked."
Another half month passed.
It was when Huo Gannian faked his death and Yan Shijiu was preparing to enter the palace to launch the final plan to seize Nan.
At that time, he reviewed his plans day and night. On the surface, everything seemed to be going according to his plan without any mistakes or omissions. But in fact, he had fallen into Huo Gannian's trap a long time ago.
Although Yan Shijiu couldn't find any flaws in Huo Gannian's actions, he intuitively felt that he might fail.
So whether it was the recipe for honey-milk cheese or the box for entrusting his funeral affairs, he had already arranged them at that time.
In other words, he actually had a premonition of his own end and knew that he might die, but he still went into the palace without hesitation and ordered the Black Scale Cavalry to fight as planned.
This determination to fight to the death may be due to a hope of getting lucky, or perhaps he is so paranoid that he cannot survive after failure.
So even though he knew he would die, he was determined to die.
Yun Chen took the heavy little box, removed the seal on it, opened the lid, and a bunch of keys came into view, making her burst out laughing.
She recognized this key. It had always been hanging around Wan Chen's waist and was the key to all of Yan Shijiu's vaults.
Below it was a thick stack of deeds to houses and shops, which should be all of Yan Shijiu's private property in Nan Country.
He really fulfilled his promise as a joke:
"After I lose my head, you help me collect the body. I will leave all my property to you and let you be a rich and happy widow. Okay?"
"Oh..." Yun Chen let out a sigh full of complaint, anger and sadness. He wanted to cry and laugh at the same time. He couldn't describe the feeling in his heart. His throat felt choked and dry, and he felt extremely uncomfortable.
She flipped through the deeds one by one, and sure enough, at the bottom of the box there was a handwritten letter from Yan Shijiu.
She knew the answer she wanted was inside.
She took out the letter nervously, held it solemnly in her hand, and tried to open the seal several times but failed.
She thought the letter would contain his corny, frivolous, and lengthy love words.
Who would have thought that when she opened it, there were only three simple words on the white letter paper, but it was like a hammer hitting her heart, causing her so much pain that she couldn't breathe -
"Yun Chen, Tianzhuxue, do you remember?
Just pretend that I really had you.
It’s great that my love will last longer than my life.”
A flash of past memories suddenly came to my mind.
Memories of her time as a personal guard of the Huo Gang came flooding back.
At that time, she and Ye Yan went to the brothel to spy on the Yu family.
She was tricked by the lecherous fat man into the bird boat in the middle of the lake and was almost taken advantage of when Yan Shijiu suddenly appeared and pricked the fat man's Tianzhuxue point on the back of his neck with a silver needle, causing the fat man to wake up from his erotic dream. He could not tell the difference between dream and reality and really thought he was "served" by Yun Chen.
She still remembered Yan Shijiu's rather flirtatious and mean look at that time, and asked her with a wicked smile:
"Xiao Yunyun, do you know Tianzhuxue? Do you know what 'emotional movement' means?"
So that’s how it is…as expected.
The enchanting smile by the green pond was real, but her dream was false.
No matter how crazy and cruel he was, he could not withstand the tears of his beloved girl.
The moment she called out "Anian" with tears in her eyes, her heart was pierced more bloodily than any sword in the world.
Although he had vaguely guessed the truth just now, Yun Chen still couldn't help but hold the letter tightly in his arms.
She cried and laughed at the same time:
"Haha... this bastard is a human being, after all, he didn't take advantage of me... But tell me, why did he do this, bastard? He really wants me to remember him forever, right?"
Yan Lang knew that Yun Chen was talking about Yan Shijiu.
Although she never said that name from beginning to end, Yan Lang knew that the only ones who would miss Yan Shijiu today were him and Yun Chen.
In the days since Yan Shijiu's death, Yan Lang has asked himself countless times:
He killed his only biological brother with his own hands, and the betrayal brought him to ruin.
Do you regret it?
Now looking at Yun Chen's tears, crying so sadly, feeling sorry for his misfortune and angry at his lack of resistance, it seemed as if he had cried out all the tears for Yan Lang as well.
Regret, Yanlang thought.
Many people in this world may not have been born. They are either born to suffer themselves or to make others suffer.
