The Marquis Is Innocent

Wei Shao paused slightly in his steps.

“I did not come here to listen to Madam pour out old stories, and it is inappropriate for Madam to bring them to me.” He slowly turned his head.

“Miss Su, during your trip passing through Jinyang, you have been delayed for some time. If you are not feeling well, you should take care of yourself. But ……”

His gaze fell straight on Su E Huang’s pale face and stopped.

“If you have another plan, listen to me. It is better to go on the road as soon as possible. I am not the former Erlang, and now I have a wife. She had won my heart. I do not want to cause her any displeasure.”

“I’ve said all I can say. You should recuperate.”

……

He just left like that without looking back.

Su E Huang stiffened. Her eyes straightened, and her skin seemed to be soaking in ice water. Coldness slowly penetrated her skin into the bone marrow.

If she didn’t clench her teeth, they would have begun to tremble at this moment. Panic slowly seized her heart, a kind of panic that was beyond her expectations.

Su E Huang thought that if she could get a chance to talk to him alone, she could take him in the direction she wanted. But she never thought things would be out of her expectation from Wei Shao’s first words.

The world’s men are all lustful. Su E Huang knew this very well. Wei Shao married the Qiao girl only for a year. This point Su E Huang has long prepared. What she never expected was that the first thing Wei Shao said was to send her away. Not only that, but he also said, ‘she won my heart.’

Could it be that the words that came out of that bitchy maid Chun Niang’s mouth that day were all true?

Su E Huang couldn’t accept it, couldn’t accept it at all!

Could it be that the Qiao girl forced Wei Shao to drive her away?

Otherwise, why did he have such a pleasant attitude if he disliked her? Even took the initiative to find someone to escort her to Luoyang?

Wei Shao must still have feelings for her!

Maybe she hurt the boy deeply, so his heart knot was hard to solve, which was exploited by the Qiao girl and lured him with sex. Wei Shao’s father and brother’s death was related to the Qiao family’s betrayal of trust and justice! At that time, the twelve-year-old boy had experienced pain that the others could not feel. But she was on the sidelines, witnessing clearly as if she personally experienced it.

Six months later, when he was finally able to get off the bed, the first thing he did was kneel before the ancestral tablets in the family temple and vow to destroy all the enemies in the future to comfort the soul of his father and brother!

At that time, his eyes put out a ruthless color. To this day, she still remembers it vividly. Such a Wei Shao, how could he be deadly obsessed with the daughter of an enemy family to the point where he could not escape?

She did not believe it, did not believe it. Let her think about it. She will be able to come up with a solution.

“Aunt! Why did the Marquis of Yan come just now? Why do you look so pale?”

Su Xin, who had been hiding, came in quickly and held Su E Huang with concern.

Su E Huang’s eyes were straight as if she had not heard, not moving.

Su Xin secretly watched Su E Huang’s expression. His heart became weaker, gulped, and said: “Is he…. aware of the previous incident in Yuyang?”

A cold chill struck Su E Huang, and she stared at Su Xin. “What are you babbling about? What is the so-called matter of Yuyang?”

She lowered her voice while her gaze instantly became icy cold.

Su Xin hurriedly said, “Yes, yes. It’s the nephew who’s confused! Aunt, are you alright? Why does your face look so terrible? I am worried about you.”

Su E Huang felt her ears buzzing while the tendons in her head seemed to twitch. Her body swayed, then she closed her eyes. She grabbed one of Su Xin’s arms haphazardly, and after a pause, she murmured, “I have a headache. Help me go back and lie down. I need to rest.”

Her hand was cold and slippery, without any temperature, but the strength was abnormal. Her nails were engraved deeply into Su Xin’s flesh.

She pinched Su Xin’s arm through the clothes. Su Xin felt a sudden sharp pain but did not dare to make a sound, busy calling the maid.

The maid hurriedly ran to help. Su Xin took the opportunity to get rid of his arm, sent Su E Huang back to her room, and put her down.

Su E Huang’s eyes were closed, motionless, seemingly asleep. Su Xin turned around and tiptoed outside. When he reached the door, he suddenly heard a voice behind him: “Nothing happened just now. Zhonglin came back to Jinyang and knew I was there. He came and talked to me about old times and told me to get well. Because of other important matters, he left in a hurry. You can rest assured that everything is under my control.”

Su Xin turned around. Su E Huang’s eyes were still closed, and her expression was calm. Then he nodded twice, went out the door, and lifted his sleeves. His arm had five deep nail marks. He secretly hissed, raised his hand, and rubbed it.
