Chapter 571.2: One Stabbed, One Killed

Jing Wan in the end didn’t make things difficult for him, sitting down to eat. Waving her hand, she didn’t let Gong mama and them serve. It was just a small table, and it was just her alone, so truly no need to let someone fill her bowl for her.

It wasn’t as meticulous as in the manor, nor was it that tasty, but for Jing Wan right now, no matter what she ate, it was actually all the same, tasteless like chewing wax. However, she still ate as much as possible, not going to contemplate that many ‘whys’. In any case, she’ll know in a while, no? But, as she ate, the tears in her eyes just tumbled down, yet she was like as if not detecting, still shoving things in her mouth one after another. Clearly the things in her mouth simply haven’t been swallowed, clearly possessing good dining etiquette, yet right now, she completely didn’t have any image, very much in a sorry state.

“Wangfei, wangfei......” Gong mama called out, attempting to stop her. Eating like this, it was better to not eat.

But, Jing Wan was like as if she didn’t hear, her movements mechanical, and while trying to swallow, she wasn’t able to succeed, instead throwing up.

“Wangfei——-” Gong mama hurriedly supported her, taking away the chopsticks in her hand, patting her back, “If unable to eat, then don’t eat. Later, let wangye eat with you.” Gong mama very much wanted to ask, exactly for what reason would wangye avoid and not meet?

Getting deathly glared at by Gong mama as such, Guard Qian felt a lot of pressure. He also very much wanted to know why!

“Mama, I don’t want to cry, really, but I can’t control myself.” A person’s grievance sometimes just came this strangely. No matter how mentally prepared, it was all useless.

“It’s fine, it’s fine. When pregnant, being moody, being impulsive, it’s all fine, all normal.” Gong mama has been by Jing Wan’s side for many years, yet has never seen her this weak before. And in these last two days, her tears were more than all the times in the past added together. Luo Old Madam once said, their wangfei, when young, never really cried before, probably the child that cried the least in the world. Right now, there wasn’t hysteria, her eyes not even having much emotions, yet it made one’s heart nearly shatter from watching.

Once she finished vomiting, she just rinsed her mouth and wiped her face. After having cried, she seemingly also had all the emotions cried out. Jing Wan sat upright, looking towards Guard Qian, “I’ve eaten.”

Before Guard Qian could respond, Gong mama’s dagger-like gaze already shot over, “Still not leading the way?”

Guard Qian expressed, he actually felt a bit wronged. He didn’t say he wasn’t going to lead the way. Unfortunately, he could only think of this inside, not daring to retort. Never mind Gong mama, even for him, seeing wangfei like this, he all felt unbearable.

And behind the house, there was a relatively flat field with two random trees. Li Hong Yuan was sitting under one of the trees. Before him was a small table, and on the table, placed a qin. Just, what made one bewildered was that, that something saintess was actually leaning on him, her entire body like as if not having bones.

The thatched cottage actually had the back window open, just it was slightly covered. The things that happened inside, never mind Li Hong Yuan, even that saintess all heard. In her eyes, Li Hong Yuan on the surface was indifferent, but that tightly clenched fist, the protruding veins on the back of his hand, and also the agitated male gu in his body, all showed that his heart wasn’t tranquil.

Even like this now, he was actually still able to have a reaction. The feelings between them, sure enough, were deep to the point of making one not dare to believe. Was this really that former living Enma? Clearly, having everyone all revolve around him was all natural and expected, yet he instead had his entire heart all given to a single woman. That was something that even she never once dared to have extravagant hopes for.

Some things although were just guesses, but reality proved that her guesses were correct.

Her control towards the male gu increased again. En, really something worth being happy over. Sure enough, the best opportunity was still when our Jin Wangfei appeared. However, other people’s suffering just brought her joy. Carrying a cheerful mood, she curled up a lock of Li Hong Yuan’s hair, lightly brushing over his ear. Heh, it was him that had her pulled to his side. One has to know, previously, in that long period of time, she couldn’t even go within three steps of him. For him to voluntarily extend his hand towards her, to say there wasn’t anything fishy, who would believe?

However, such an extremely rare opportunity, even if knowing that he had ulterior motives, one still can’t let go of, no?

TN: All

Li Hong Yuan relaxed his fist, beginning to pluck the qin strings. Even if wanting to have the woman that was leaning against his shoulder chopped into a thousand pieces, he still forcibly endured, not kicking her away. Moreover, the love-locking gu’s influence towards him was growing increasingly strong, so he also wasn’t thinking of doing anything.

Perhaps because of the love-locking gu, he didn’t feel any heartache, but there was still a very unpleasant feeling, perhaps even more unbearable that direct heartache.

Circling around the thatched cottage, the moment she saw her own husband, Jing Wan just stopped in her tracks.

The people by her side were shocked, not daring to believe, even producing overflowing anger. Even if that was their master, their anger wasn’t able to dissipate either. If from the start, he just got controlled by the love-locking gu, then perhaps they wouldn’t be this angry. But, this much time had passed already, letting them know, their master sure enough can’t be defeated, yet precisely at this time, when wangfei appeared, just gave them a smack over the head, making their heads spin, their brain abuzz, so how can one not be angry!?

In contrast, Jing Wan was seemingly very calm. At least on the surface, one was unable to make out any emotions.

This instead made a certain saintess that was prepared to watch a good play very disappointed. Clearly, just now, because of not seeing the person, she wasn’t even able to eat anything, the feeling just like a dodder flower, making one very much look down on, yet now, she was instead terrifyingly calm. Never mind breaking down, her posture was still naturally straight, greatly having the stance of ‘no matter how violent the wind and rain, she will still stand tall’.

In this short period of time in between, she was just like having completely switched with another person, truly making one puzzled.

Li Hong Yuan also stopped playing the qin, meeting Jing Wan’s gaze, like an old well without ripples, “Wangfei has come.” Shortly after, he nonchalantly shifted his gaze, landing on the saintess by his side, even reaching out and tapping the bell bracelet on her wrist.

Jing Wan lifted her foot, slowly walking over, stopping a few steps away from Li Hong Yuan, “Wangye, do you still remember what you once said in the past?” Jing Wan neither lightly nor heavily opened her mouth, lifting her right hand and adjusting her left sleeve.

“This prince has said many things before, what is wangfei referring to?” Li Hong Yuan nonchalantly looked to her.

Perhaps because of temporarily not having any feelings towards her, Li Hong Yuan actually wasn’t able to make out Jing Wan’s true emotions currently, but his intuition told him that his wife right now was actually very abnormal. However, this was also precisely what he wanted.

Jing Wan slightly tilted her head, even carrying a smile, “Then, I’ll just use actual actions to tell wangye.” Her smile didn’t reduce as she approached Li Hong Yuan step by step, walking to his backside. Reaching out, her fingertips lightly touched his neck. Her right hand suddenly pushed aside her left sleeve, swiftly pulling out the dragger tied to her arm. Lifting her hand, she directly stabbed towards Li Hong Yuan’s heart. “You once said, my true love can exchange for your life. As long as your heart changes, then I can just take your life.” Jing Wan softly opened her mouth, still like when tightly embracing in the past, using the most intimate tone.

Things happened too quickly, just like a flash of lightning, the sparks of a flint stone. Probably no one had thought that Jing Wan would be this ruthless, just doing it as she said she would, completely not giving others the time to react. For a moment, each and every one were all dumbstruck.

Even for a certain saintess that was still leaning on Li Hong Yuan’s shoulder, even hindering Jing Wan’s arm, her eyes were also wide open, to the extent that she didn’t even notice the changes that occurred to the love-locking gu in her body.

And Jing Wan simply didn’t stop, pulling out the dagger and casually stabbing into the nape of the person under her elbow. Originally, this saintess was dressed in clothes sewn full of silver decorations, but Jing Wan was determined to take her life, so her aim was very accurate, her hand also very steady, just going down all at once along the side of her neck. The dagger that more or less was able to pare iron like mud directly just severed her main artery, the blood instantly spraying like a fountain.

The saintess just turned her head in disbelief, looking towards Jing Wan, her eyes carrying disbelief, and afterwards, collapsed on the ground just like that, her eyes ultimately still staring at Jing Wan. Under her body, a large pool of blood very quickly just formed. However, ordinary people’s blood just carried a bloody scent, yet her blood carried a faint foul odor.

Jing Wan held the dagger, the blood at the tip dripping down drop by drop. Her eyes were lowered, apathetically looking at the saintess, “To dare have delusions about my man, just deserve to die.”

The saintess finally stopped breathing, but her eyes were still staring wide open. Clearly, she had died with grievances.

At the very end, she mostly was still unable to accept, unable to believe. Her short and fleeting life, once suffering extreme humiliation, rising and falling, yet she ultimately believed that she can fight to the end and be the final winner. However, she just this abruptly died without warning, died!! Dying at the hands of the most unlikely person.

Li Hong Yuan motionlessly sat there. Regardless whether it was because of the saintess’s death, the male gu already not having any effect, or because.......

His feelings were reawakening little by little in his heart. It hurt, very much hurt. It wasn’t because of that stab from Jing Wan, but rather because he had hurt the person he loved the most. Things that have already happened, he didn’t want to continue looking into, reaching out and holding Jing Wan’s hand that was still propped against his shoulder.

Jing Wan didn’t resist, seemingly like as if this was still the most intimate person to her. However, her just standing there like that, it was very abnormal.

historical

Others didn’t know, but Li Hong Yuan nevertheless sensed the most clearly, swiftly getting up, to the extent of overturning the small table in front. Turning around, his one hand hooked Jing Wan’s nape, while his other hand embraced her waist, ruthlessly kissing over, wrecking havoc, madly and frantically. And from his mouth, he endlessly called out, “Wan Wan.”

Jing Wan still didn’t react. Seemingly after stabbing her own husband, and killing her love rival, she also just lost the will to live.

“Wan Wan, Wan Wan, please respond to me, alright? Please, I’m begging you, don’t be like this. I can explain, really, I can explain, else, else you can just stab me a few more times. Once, once is enough, please, I’m begging you, don’t let me lose you a second time, Wan Wan........”

All say, men not crying easily was just having yet to be truly heartbroken.

Even for a man like Li Hong Yuan, at this time, he similarly would endlessly shed tears, pained to the point of wishing for death.
