Chapter 41 Support (2)
Chen Hui slowly folded the letter and squeezed it in her palm. She looked at Wen Jing who was looking infatuatedly at her. Then, she looked at Li Youde and said in a low voice, “Lord, this is something that had happened before this Lady Chen entered Li residence. Shouldn’t this old score be forgotten and not bear recriminations?”
Before Li Youde spoke, Wen Jing shouted first, “Lady Chen! How can you be so cruel? How can you and my past be bygones like this…Lady Chen!”
“Shut up!” Chen Hui suddenly stepped forward and slapped Wen Jing severely.
Everyone was dumbfounded for a moment. Li Youde inexplicably felt a pain on his face. He remembered that he had been slapped like this by Chen Hui before. It was really painful.
The anger Chen Hui felt towards Wen Jing was real. That he came to Li residence to look for her was indeed planning to burn both the jade and common stone. Who was Li Youde? Even if Wen Jing didn’t come to the residence, Li Youde may have gone looking for him, not to mention that he sent himself here to be abused now. Li Youde may not do anything to her. At best, he would throw her back to Plum Yard and lock her up, but Wen Jing might get killed quietly. Could it be that he didn’t even think about this?
“Wen Jing, the past is the past and now is now. How many times do you want me to say it?” Chen Hui looked condescendingly and coldly at Wen Jing who was slapped by her and fell on the ground without the support of the servants.
Li Youde watched all of this blankly as if he was in a state of watching a theater and had no intention of intervening.
Wen Jing’s hair bun had loosened. He slowly raised his head. The loose hair covered half of his face. He looked at Chen Hui and his lips trembled, “Lady Chen, this isn’t from your heart, Li Youde, that eu…”
“Shut up!” Chen Hui reprimanded again. She didn’t want to hear the word ‘eunuch’ coming out of Wen Jing’s mouth. “Don’t call me Lady Chen. I and your relationship aren’t so intimate. We didn’t have a marital engagement before and only exchanged a few letters. I hope that you can realize this point and I wish you the best in the future.”
Wen Jing looked at Chen Hui in a daze. He suddenly looked at Li Youde again. His eyes were full of sharpness and anger.
Chen Hui slanted her body and blocked his vision. When he looked over, Chen Hui said, “You were a coward before. Now, you have become a reckless person. Someone like you is not even worthy to carry my shoes. Roll out!”
“…No, I…I won’t leave!” Wen Jing didn’t notice Chen Hui’s good intentions at all. He even rushed forward to grab Chen Hui’s foot.
Chen Hui stepped back in a hurry. Fortunately, Li Youde was not far away. He also subconsciously reached out his hand to help stabilize Chen Hui’s figure. She turned her head and smiled at Li Youde with sparkling eyes.
Li Youde let go of her without batting an eyelid and laughed softly, “Lady Chen, this is really a good show. Your lover seems to still have feelings for you, but you are so heartless. Why don’t I help you?”
Chen Hui felt goosebumps all over her body when she heard him say the word ‘help’. The next sentence would probably be: become a pair of mandarin ducks in hell.
When Wen Jing heard Li Youde say that, hope emerged in his eyes and he looked in a daze at Chen Hui.
“No need,” Chen Hui chopped the nail and sliced the iron. “He is not worthy of this Lady Chen…This Lady Chen only wants to be with lord.”
Wen Jing’s eyes widened. He looked at that familiar face and the shy smile that used to only be for him and that was now blooming wantonly at another person. And that person is a eunuch. For a moment, anger, embarrassment, disbelief and despair…all kinds of emotions were intertwined, making him hardly able to breathe. Those words from Chen Hui before may be fake, but she could reveal such a natural expression now in front of this eunuch. So, where was there a possibility of falsehood? He felt so much hatred! Why was he so powerless? Why could he not even compare to a eunuch?!
Li Youde suddenly looked at Chen Hui. He lowered his eyes and said with a cold face, “Where do you want to be if it’s not with me?”
“Right, lord is right,” Chen Hui quickly responded docilely.
Li Youde looked at Wen Jing again. He was familiar with the angry gaze that the other party looked at him with. He didn’t mind and felt extremely refreshed instead. What about it even if this man hated him to the core? His beloved said in his face that she preferred a eunuch over him. He must be feeling very indignant now!
At this moment, Li Youde felt that Chen Hui’s well-behaved appearance was really pleasing. He asked Chen Hui, “Lady Chen, did this person entangled with you at noon?”
Chen Hui was slightly startled and only hesitated for a moment before she followed Li Youde’s meaning, “That is right, lord. That is him. This Lady Chen already told him that in the future, the bridge will be the bridge and the road will be the road, but he still entangled ceaselessly. Really annoying.”
Wen Jing just looked at Chen Hui with a blank face and an expression that he had given up all hope.
Li Youde looked at him disgustedly and said, “Lady Chen, don’t pay attention anymore to this kind of dog-like-thing, lest you dirty your hands.”
Chen Hui said, “…Yes, lord.”
Listening to Li Youde, Chen Hui faintly realized that the affair of Wen Jing may be able to turn a page, but she couldn’t be excited. She lowered her head and didn’t dare to cast a pitying glance at Wen Jing for fear that Li Youde would see it and get unhappy again.
How to explain? If she was a bystander, she would only feel sympathy for Wen Jing, but as one of the involved parties, aside from pity, she had to consider her interests and could only let him down. Even if Li Youde said many overboard things, she couldn’t refute them, otherwise, she and Wen Jing would be done for.
“Alright, did you get addicted watching this liveliness? Throw this thing out!” Li Youde scanned the servants angrily.
The small servants rushed to Wen Jing, grabbed him hurriedly and threw him, who had lost the ability to resist, out of the residence.
Wen Jing didn’t struggle. He just stared at Chen Hui. His sight didn’t leave her for a moment until he could no longer see her, until he was fiercely thrown on the ground.
The servants returned to Li residence, but Wen Jing lay there quietly, looking like a large trash from a distance. After a long time, he suddenly laughed in a low voice. It only stopped after a while. He slowly stood up, smoothed his robe a bit. He didn’t look at Li residence again and walked into the deepest part of the night.
After Li Youde issued the order to let people throw Wen Jing out, he didn’t look at the other party again. To Li Youde, he has seen many small characters like Wen Jing, so he naturally wasn’t too concerned. He turned around and walked back. From the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of Chen Hui immediately following. He smiled vaguely and contentedly.
