Yan Jiuchao said coldly, “Who is that wild man?!”?<i>I’ll find him, kill him! Burn him! Chop him up!</i>
“…I don’t know,” Yu Wan said with her head lowered. “Besides, there might be more than one.”
Yan Jiuchao, who instantly felt like he had been shot by a hundred thousand arrows: “…”
“I didn’t mean to hide it from you. I don’t remember it myself. I just remembered. Not that I remember. It’s just… I can’t exin it either. Anyway, that’s it.”
<i>That’s it? What’s it?!</i>
In the dark room, Yan Jiuchao was so angry that he sat up from the bed. He lifted the nket and sat on the edge of the bed, panting heavily. How many years had it been since he was so angry? He was about to explode from anger!
She was really bold. Just because he doted on her, she dared to say any nonsense! There was more than one man?! The children were born too! She didn’t know who the father of the children was!
Yan Jiuchao was so angry that his heart ached!
“Will Young Master be fine?” In the courtyard outside the door, Shadow Six looked at the closed door and said solemnly.
Shadow Thirteen did not look optimistic.
Uncle Wan sighed. “Thest time I saw Young Master so angry was when he found out about the reason for Prince Yan’s death. Young Master was so angry that he locked himself in his room and refused to see anyone until he was so angry that he fell ill…”
“Then will Young Master have a rpse this time?” Shadow Six said in shock. He had seen Young Master’s rpse before. It was really too terrifying!
Uncle Wan sighed again. “Who knows? Ever since he met Miss Yu, Young Master has never fallen ill again. But this time, Miss Yu was the one who caused it. It’s hard to say what the oue will be…”
Shadow Six looked at Shadow Thirteen and said, “Weren’t you there at that time? Didn’t you know to stop Miss Yu?”
Shadow Thirteen exploded. “How can I stop her? You don’t know, she didn’t say a word of nonsense!”
Others would at least talk around the bush. But she had told him everything the moment she came up. Shadow Thirteen had never seen such a straightforward person! He didn’t even react!
Shadow Six and Uncle Wan both looked at him bitterly. Shadow Thirteen was defeated. “Forget it, forget it. I’ll go in and persuade him.”
Shadow Thirteen risked his life to enter the Young Master’s room.
Yan Jiuchao sat on the edge of the bed in thin clothes. The night at the end of March was still a little cold, but Shadow Thirteen could hear the sweat dripping from his forehead and dripping onto his feet.
His face was hidden in the dark, and Shadow Thirteen could not see his expression clearly, but he could feel the killing intent emanating from him. Even an expert like Shadow Thirteen could not help but shiver.
“Young Master,” Shadow Thirteen mustered his courage and said.
After a while, Yan Jiuchao said in a deep voice, “What is it?”
His voice was not loud, but it inexplicably made Shadow Thirteen’s hair stand on end.
In the end, Shadow Thirteen didn’t forget why he was here. Heposed himself and said, “Young Master, don’t be too angry. Didn’t Miss Yu say that she doesn’t remember? Who knows if what she said is true? Perhaps she remembered wrongly.”
Yan Jiuchao said coldly, “Do you think she dares to say this in front of me without conclusive evidence?”
Shadow Thirteen also felt that he had gone crazy. His advice was too insincere, so he quickly changed his words and said, “Actually, you didn’t suffer a loss either. Didn’t you also sleep with another woman and give birth to your own child? You’re even with Miss Yu.”
“How can this be even? I only slept with one! She… she might have slept with several,” Yan Jiuchao said bitterly.
The thoughts of people in the pugilistic world were different from ordinary people. Shadow Thirteen quickly circled the main point in Young Master’s words and raised his eyebrows. “Then can’t you sleep a few more?”
“…” Yan Jiuchao felt a mouthful of turbid air stuck in his chest. Was this a matter of sleeping or not? This was about the matter of his cabbage that he had obtained being eaten by some wild boar!
“Achoo!” Yan Jiuchao sneezed heavily.
No one could ept this. He was not a person who would not care about the past of the person he likes, but he was not sure what kind of past this person had.
Was the memory she forgot something that was not important to her, or was it something that had once been engraved in her heart? If she remembered it one day, would she realize that… the person she really liked was someone else? Or perhaps there was another possibility. He was just one of her many men—
Yan Jiuchao felt like he was about to die of anger.
“Where’s Shadow Six?” Yan Jiuchao shouted.
Shadow Six hurriedly entered. “Young Master!”
Yan Jiuchao’s heart surged with killing intent. “Go and investigate. I want to know everything about her!”
… .
In the evening, Yu Wan returned to the vige.
After she finished confessing to Yan Jiuchao, she alighted from the carriage. She took her rented carriage back to town.
She did not dare to look at Yan Jiuchao’s expression. In her previous life, her parents had passed away early, and she had always been a very fortuitous person. However, after meeting Yan Jiuchao, there was gradually a crack in her fortitude.
It was said that women became strong because they had no choice. They became weak because they were happy. She did not know whether these words were true or not. She only knew that Zhao Heng had let Ah Wan be independent too early, while Yan Jiuchao had almost stripped her of her strength.
She thought that she did not regret telling Yan Jiuchao. These past memories were Ah Wan’s and hers. She could not shake them off or erase them. This was the price of her rebirth. If Yan Jiuchao could not ept her like this, then she could only regretfully end this rtionship.
“Sis, Sis!”
After returning to the house, Little Bruiser ran out and grabbed Yu Wan’s hand, dragging her into the house.
“What’s wrong?” Yu Wan asked.
“The vige sent a courier!” Little Bruiser said with wide eyes.
Yu Wan asked, “Why are you pulling me along if he’s here?”
“There’s a letter for you!” Little Bruiser pulled Yu Wan into the room and pointed at the bag on the table. “Look! Your letter! So many letters! They came today!”
Her… letters?
<i>“I’ve only been gone for a few days, and you’re already so dejected? Didn’t I write you letters every day tofort your lovesickness?”</i>
In that case, Yan Jiuchao had really written to her, but why was there so much? Could it be that someone else had written it too?
“Sis, I can help you read the letter!” Little Bruiser patted his chest and said. He could read now. He was a knowledgeable Bruiser!
Yu Wan patted his head indifferently. “Finish reading the thousand words first.”
Little Bruiser, who had his head lowered: “…Oh.”
Yu Wan waited until Little Bruiser fell asleep before lighting an oilmp to read the letters. There were too many letters, more than three hundred of them. Yu Wan seriously suspected that Yan Jiuchao did not do anything along the way and was writing letters.
“I’m leaving the Capital. Don’t worry too much. I’ll be back in a few days.”
“We’re already at Chang’an Street. I’m really leaving the Capital.”
“I’m at Xuanwu Street…”
“I’m at Vermilion Bird Street…”
“I’m almost at the East City Gate…”
“I’m at the East City Gate…”
“I’m out of the East City Gate…”
“Yu City’s glutinous rice balls are stuffed with meat…”
“The rapeseed flowers in Bo County are blooming extremely well…”
“…”
“…”
“…”
There wasn’t much on the letters. There were only one or two sentences, and they were all useless. However, for some reason, Yu Wan could clearly see him sitting in the carriage, impatiently holding a brush. It was inexplicably cute.
Yu Wan smiled. But soon, she couldn’t smile anymore.
Because Yan Jiuchao would never write to her again.
… .
“Young Master.”
At dawn, Shadow Six returned to the manor.
Yan Jiuchao did not sleep the entire night. He just sat by the bed coldly. The dawn light shone in andnded on his cold face. Shadow Six did not dare to look at him anymore. He only lowered his head and told him the news he had found out. “I’ve never heard of Miss Yu having an affair and giving birth.”
Yan Jiuchao said in a low voice, “In that case, she’s lying to me?”
“This…” Shadow Six hesitated. “I don’t know, but I heard something else.”
“What is it?” Yan Jiuchao asked.
“Miss Yu went to her aunt’s house for a year three years ago, but Schr Zhao’s sister once ndered Miss Yu in front of the entire vige. She said that she didn’t go to her aunt’s house that year, but… she entered a brothel,” Shadow Six braced himself and said.
Yan Jiuchao’s eyes suddenly turned cold.
Shadow Six continued, “As the saying goes, there must be a reason for the groundless rumors. Since this matter came from the Zhao family, we’ll be able to know if it’s true if we call the Zhao family over to ask. Didn’t Miss Yu say that she doesn’t remember it clearly? Perhaps she was deceived by the Zhao family. In order to break off the engagement, the Zhao family is omnipotent. It’s not much of a stretch for them to make up some rumors!”
Yan Jiuchao said coldly, “Catch that brat Zhao!”
… .
Zhao Heng did not know what bad luck he had recently. Why were there people catching him everyday recently? Today, he had clearly changed his path, but he was still caught. This person was so rude. Without a word, he threw him onto the horse’s back and drove as if he was rushing to reincarnate. He vomited all the way, and he was about to vomit his intestines.
When he finally arrived, he was thrown to the ground again. He was dizzy for a long time before he could hug a big tree and get up. Then, he saw a pair of ck pattern shoes with a piece of white brocade that was sewn by inch and inch of gold. He immediately felt a noble aura.
He raised his head in fear and looked at the high and mighty man. Then, he was shocked. “Young… Young Master Wan?”
Speaking of which, it was strange. Although Yan Jiuchao had lived in the vige for a period of time, Zhao Heng had never met him. The only time he had seen him was when he had caught a glimpse of a shadow during the earthquake. However, this man’s temperament was too unique, so much so that Zhao Heng still recognized him at first nce.
“Did you ask someone to capture me?” Zhao Heng did not understand why Young Master Wan wanted to capture him. It was not that he did not see that Young Master Wan had feelings for Ah Wan, but he had already broken off the engagement with Ah Wan and had already moved out of Lotus Flower Vige. He would never have any contact with Ah Wan in his life. Then why did he capture him?
Shadow Thirteen kicked him. “Is my master’s appearance something you can peep at?”
Zhao Heng was kicked to the ground, his forehead covered in blood. He was a schr who studied sage books and had grown up pampered. When had he ever suffered like this? He immediately broke out in cold sweat from the pain. However, there was more humiliation than pain.
He was a schr, and he could be exempted from kneeling when he saw an official. This Young Master Wan, who did not have any achievements, actually humiliated him like this!
Yan Jiuchao ignored his ant-like struggle and looked down at him. “Let me ask you, did you make up the rumor that Yu Wan entered a brothel, or did you hear it from somewhere?”
Yu Wan, it was Yu Wan again! Every time something happened, it was because of this woman!
The worm turns, just like Zhao Heng, who was also furious after suffering two to three unexpected disasters. “Young Master Wan, are you here to ask about her because you want to marry her? Ha, then I advise Young Master Wan to open your eyes wide. Not only has this woman entered a brothel, but she has also given birth to children with another man! I definitely didn’t make it up! It’s the truth! Someone saw it with their own eyes!”
“Who is it?” Yan Jiuchao clenched his fists and asked.
Zhao Heng straightened his back and said, “My ssmate! He saw her enter the brothel with his own eyes! She’s been hiding it from me. If not for my ssmate telling me the truth, I would’ve been kept in the dark until now! I’m definitely not saying this to sow discord between Young Master Wan and her. I just pity Young Master Wan for being in the same situation as me and can’t bear to see you continue to be deceived by her! This woman has good methods. She couldn’t be a schr’s wife, so she ran to seduce you. You are also a schr. Don’t be dragged down by such an indecent woman!”
Shadow Thirteen kicked him to the ground. “Just answer me. Did I let you fool around?”
Zhao Heng spat out a mouthful of blood in pain.
Yan Jiuchao looked at him coldly. “Who is your ssmate?”
Two hourster, Shadow Six caught a schr surnamed Yang.
Schr Yang was originally Zhao Heng’s ssmate, but ever since Zhao Heng moved to the Capital, he no longer studied in the town’s private school. Speaking of which, the two of them had not seen each other for a while. Schr Yang never expected that they would meet again at such an asion.
Schr Yang was dumbfounded.
Yan Jiuchao naturally disdains to reveal his identity to him. At first, Schr Yang looked holy and invible, but after Shadow Thirteen punched him a few times, he became obedient. He answered whatever Yan Jiuchao asked, not daring to question him at all.
ording to Zhao Heng, Schr Yang had identally seen Yu Wan in the brothel three years ago. After that, he had been hesitant to tell Zhao Heng until he heard that Zhao Heng was getting married.
However, under Yan Jiuchao’s brutal interrogation, that was not the case at all.
“I… I didn’t recognize her… She suddenly pounced on me and blocked my path… She said… said she was Schr Zhao’s fiancée… She asked me… asked me to save her out… I was shocked when I saw the red spots on her face… But I knew she wasn’t lying… The things she said… were all true…”
In order to gain Schr Yang’s trust, Ah Wan told her a lot about Zhao Heng and what Zhao Heng had told her about Schr Yang.
Zhao Heng did not expect such an inside story. He was stunned!
“She went to town to sell vegetables and met a kidnapper… She begged me to save her… I… I didn’t dare…”
Of course, Schr Yang did not dare. The brothel was filled with thugs. Wasn’t taking their girl away equivalent to courting death?
At that time, Ah Wan had knelt down and begged him, saying that she was still a virgin. She had not let Zhao Heng down, so she begged him to take her away. It was fine if he wanted to redeem her. She would return the money to him in the future.
However, Schr Yang flicked his sleeves and left. He had left a lonely girl alone in a wolf’s den. This was not an unfamiliar girl, but the fiancée of Zhao Heng, who was hisrade. Had his conscience been fed to a dog?
Yan Jiuchao was so angry that his entire body trembled.
Shadow Thirteen and Shadow Six exchanged nces and thought to themselves that something was wrong. Young Master was probably going to have a rpse.
Yan Jiuchao’s rationality was being devoured inch by inch. He used what was left of his consciousness to say, “What brothel is that… What’s with the children…”
After asking, his gaze changed. He picked up the stool beside him and smashed it hard at Schr Yang’s head.
… .
Schr Yang fell. His eyes were still open, but blood and brain matter sttered all over Zhao Heng’s face.
Zhao Heng was dumbfounded.
… .
Three dayster, Yan Jiuchao woke up. Shadow Six beat Zhao Heng up and threw him back into the alley. However, before leaving, Zhao Heng took the initiative to answer Yan Jiuchao’sst two questions.
“Young Master, this is a portrait personally drawn by Zhao Heng. He said that he only confirmed that Miss Yu had given birth after seeing the portrait,” Shadow Six said.
Uncle Wan gave Shadow Six a look outside the door, indicating that Shadow Six should remind Young Master to drink the medicine.
Shadow Six thought to himself,?<i>Young Master’s illness is a mental illness. A mental illness needs its own doctor.</i>
Shadow Six did not respond to Uncle Wan. Uncle Wan was so anxious that he wanted to beat him up!
Yan Jiuchao took the portrait and nced at it. He frowned.
Shadow Six said, “Maybe she disguised herself, or maybe she identally ate something poisonous that caused her to have poisonous spots.”
“Where did you get the portrait?” Yan Jiuchao asked hoarsely.
Shadow Six said, “It seems that another group of people is also investigating Miss Yu. Zhao Heng saw this portrait from that group of people.”
“Another group?” Yan Jiuchao was deep in thought.
Shadow Six nodded. “Also, Young Master, guess where Miss Yu was kidnapped and brought to three years ago?”
Yan Jiuchao said, “Don’t tell me it’s Prefecture Xu.”
“It’s Prefecture Xu,” Shadow Six said.
Yan Jiuchao paused. “Are you sure?”
“I was also very surprised at that time. I asked Zhao Heng repeatedly, and it was indeed Prefecture Xu. Moreover… it was also April,” Shadow Six said as he looked fixedly at Yan Jiuchao. “Young Master, it can’t be such a coincidence, right?”
Yan Jiuchao muttered, “That’s right. It can’t be such a coincidence, right…”
The time and ce matched… However, he really couldn’t remember the other party’s appearance. His spy had once asked Yan Ruyu, “You’re the daughter of the Yan Manor. Why did you end up in a brothel?”
“I was kidnapped by human traffickers…” Yan Ruyu choked.
This was what Yu Wan had experienced.
“Young Master, do you need me to go to Prefecture Xu again?” Shadow Six asked.
“No need.” Yan Jiuchao paused. “Prepare the carriage.”
“Where are we going?”
“Lotus Flower Vige.”
He wanted to personally verify if she was the woman from that night.
