Quick Wear: The male protagonists all fell in love with her at first sight
Chapter 205: The Cold and Noble Prince (59)
Marquis Wu'an heard the news as soon as he returned home. His face darkened when he learned that Jiang Rou almost had a miscarriage because of his daughter-in-law.
He ordered in a deep voice to the servant beside him, "Go and call the second young master over."
After saying this, Marquis Wu'an lowered his head, not knowing what he was thinking about. Suddenly, a familiar yet unfamiliar voice sounded in his ear, "Are you thinking about how to protect your good son?", the voice was full of sarcasm.
Wu Anhou was stunned when he heard the voice. He looked up stiffly and saw Wen Shu standing by the door. His usually calm face showed a hint of panic.
Hearing her words, he subconsciously explained, "I won't protect her," his voice was low and a little cautious.
Wen Shu's hands in her sleeves froze for a moment. She looked at the man not far away, suppressed the bitterness in her heart, and continued in a cold voice, "I must have an explanation for what happened today. This is your family affair. I think Marquis Wu'an will give me a satisfactory answer. Otherwise, I would like to ask the Queen in the palace to have a say."
Hearing her words, Marquis Wu'an felt bitter. After all, she did not believe him. Marquis Wu'an stood up, took two steps towards Wen Shu, looked at her and said, "Don't worry, I will give an explanation to Huai'an couple about what happened today."
After getting a satisfactory answer, Wen Shu looked at him deeply and said expressionlessly, "I hope you will do what you say." Then she turned and left, leaving Wu Anhou with the words stuck in his throat.
The moment she turned around, tears began to flow from Wen Shu's eyes. She clenched her hands tightly, not allowing herself to show the slightest emotion in front of him.
Marquis Wu'an stood blankly in the room, staring at Wen Shu's back. Looking at her back without turning back, he seemed to be back to that day twenty years ago, and his heart seemed to be torn in pain.
Ji Mingjin was called to the study as soon as he got off duty. He didn't know how things in the mansion were progressing, so when he walked outside the study and saw Wen Shu's back, he was surprised.
He suppressed his doubts and walked towards the house. As soon as he opened the door, he was hit on the forehead by a flying scroll and blood gushed out instantly.
When he looked up, he saw Marquis Wu'an with a gloomy face at the top. He didn't dare to ask what had happened, so he knelt straight on the ground and said quickly, "Father, calm down."
Marquis Wu'an just stared at him coldly and said, "I didn't know you still had me, your father, in your eyes." Hearing this, Ji Mingjin was shocked.
He continued with an ignorant look, "I don't know what my father said, but in my son's heart, I will always be his father." His voice was respectful and his attitude was neither humble nor arrogant.
Before Ji Mingjin could calm himself down, he heard Ji Huaian's cold sneer from behind him. For some reason, Ji Mingjin felt uneasy.
Ji Huaian looked at him and thought about what he had done. The anger in his heart was hard to calm down. He threw the letter in front of him and said in a cold voice, "I didn't know you were so capable. You are so brave to sell contraband salt and traffic in human beings."
The moment Ji Huaian opened his mouth, Ji Mingjin knew that everything was exposed, but he still had a glimmer of hope in his heart. He would never admit it. He had done a good job in cleaning up these things, and he didn't believe that Ji Huaian could find out anything.
So Ji Mingjin looked at Ji Huaian with an innocent face, and said in disbelief, "Brother, I don't know what you are talking about." As he said that, he looked up at the leader with grievance, but unfortunately Marquis Wu'an didn't even give him a glance.
Ji Mingjin lowered his head when he saw this, hatred flashed across his eyes. It was like this every time. In his heart, I was not his son.
When Ji Huaian heard what was said, a mocking look appeared on his face. He bent down to pick up the scroll that fell beside him and slowly opened it. He handed it to Ji Mingjin, and slowly tightened his hand around his neck, saying in a low voice, "Who gave you the courage to touch Arou, you smart-aleck fool?"
Ji Mingjin had no ability to fight back under his hands. As Ji Huaian's hands slowly tightened, Ji Mingjin's face turned purple. He looked at Ji Huaian with horror in his eyes. He was really scared now. He knew that Ji Huaian really wanted to kill him.
When he felt he was about to suffocate, Ji Huaian pushed him away. After all, he was still useful. Looking at Ji Mingjin who was lying on the ground like a dead dog, Ji Huaian walked up to him, lifted his chin, and said expressionlessly, "Since you have the courage to do it, you must bear the consequences."
After saying that, he stood up, picked up the handkerchief and carefully wiped the hand that had just touched Ji Mingjin. Ji Mingjin looked at Ji Huaian who was looking down at him, hatred boiling in his heart, but the feeling of being on the verge of death just now made him dare not act rashly, and he could only lower his head to hide the hatred in his eyes.
Jiang Rou had no idea what was happening here. Ever since she fainted last time, everyone treated her like a porcelain doll. Old Madam Ji was worried about her, so she moved directly from the Marquis Wu'an Mansion to the Duke's Mansion, and Wen Shu also stayed in the mansion every day.
This made Ji Huaian, who had just returned from his shift, have no choice but to watch his beloved wife being occupied. He could only wait until night, then transform into a big dog and curl up in Jiang Rou's arms to tell her about his grievances.
Jiang Rou found his look a little funny. She patted his head gently and said softly, "Okay, grandma and mother are worried about me too. Don't be angry, okay?"
Ji Huaian didn't feel embarrassed at all for Jiang Rou's coaxing tone. Instead, he felt very happy inside, thinking to himself that he was indeed still the most important person in Jiang Rou's heart.
The couple snuggled up to each other and talked intimately. Jiang Rou's eyes flickered slightly, and she bit her lower lip with her pearly teeth and asked softly, "Huaian, how are they, how are they?" Her voice was a little difficult, and the two of them shuddered when she spoke.
Ji Huaian, who sensed this reaction, immediately took the person into his arms and comforted him softly, "Don't be afraid, you won't see them again in the future."
Jiang Rou seemed to be comforted, and she softened in Ji Huaian's arms, with her hands clinging to his neck, like a dodder clinging to a tree with all her heart.
Ji Huaian hugged his wife gently, but his eyes were deep and unfathomable. It seemed that it was a good thing for them to let them leave the capital safely.
At this time, the disabled Ji Mingjin and the trembling Shen Wanqing were fighting each other in the dim cell. Ji Mingjin's legs and hands had been disabled, and he could only sit against the wall. The former jade-like young master was no longer there.
Shen Wanqing pinched his neck, her face ferocious, and kept roaring, "It's all your fault, bitch. I, the legitimate daughter of the prime minister's family, married a lowly bastard like you, and you have harmed me to this extent. I will kill you."
Ji Mingjin's face gradually turned blue, but his limbs were disabled and he could not do anything. He could only stare at Shen Wanqing. The mockery in his eyes angered Shen Wanqing, who grabbed his hair with one hand and slammed his head against the wall.
The noise attracted the soldiers who were holding the two men, who shouted "Quiet down" inside. Only then was Ji Mingjin, whose face was covered in blood, released. He collapsed on the ground like a dead dog and was stepped on by Shen Wanqing.
Shen Wanqing knew how to make people uncomfortable. She looked at Ji Mingjin at her feet and said to him, "Oh, you wanted to use me to cause trouble for Jiang Rou and make Ji Huaian confused, and you took advantage of the opportunity. It's really a dream."
