Chapter 50: Endure Humiliation
Chapter 50: Bear Humiliation
"If the Marquis wants to know, why not go and see it yourself?"
The servant heard Cui Liu's tone and scolded, "Cui Liu, you are so bold how dare you talk to the Marquis like that!"
"Do you know..."
"It doesn't matter." Shen Yun'an interrupted the servant. He knew that Cui Liu was someone close to Xu Yuan. She could appear here and use such a tone. This must represent Xu Yuan's attitude.
Although Shen Yun'an said that nothing happened, he was even more angry with Xu Yuan in his heart.
He thought he had been very tolerant of Xu Yuan, but she dared to send a maid.
If this wasn't humiliating him, what else could it be? Shen Yun'an's eyes were cold. He had remembered this matter.
After coaxing Xu Yuan, he would definitely pay this debt back a hundredfold.
"Cui Liu, is the madam still angry with me?"
Shen Yun'an continued to talk to Cui Liu with an apologetic look on his face.
"The previous incident was all my fault for not thinking things through."
Cui Liu did not reply. If she had not known the despicable things that the Marquis had done behind her young lady's back, people who did not know the truth would have been deceived by him with this seemingly "affectionate" look.
"Marquis, you should talk to the young lady in person about this kind of thing."
Cui Liu's answer made Shen Yun'an's eyes light up, and his voice became excited.
"Cui Liu, do you mean that the lady agreed to see me?"
Cui Liu hummed, and then said to the two guards, "You let the Marquis in, this is also what the young lady wanted."
"Understood."
The guard nodded.
Although the master had ordered not to let the Marquis in, the other party was the young lady's husband after all, and the master almost always responded to the young lady's requests.
Since the young lady had spoken, there was naturally nothing to stop her.
When the servant wanted to follow Shen Yun'an in, Cui Liu said, "Marquis, the young lady only said that you were allowed to be alone."
Shen Yun'an instantly understood that what he was most anxious about now was to see Xu Yuan, and nothing else mattered.
He glanced at the servant over there, and said to the guards outside the carriage, "You all wait here."
Shen Yun'an followed Cui Liu into the Duke's Mansion and came to the courtyard where Xu Yuan was.
As soon as he arrived there, he saw Xu Yuan holding a child. This scene was so eye-catching.
"Miss, the Marquis is here."
Cui Liu came to Xu Yuan and reported softly.
Xu Yuan hummed lightly, handed the child to Cui Liu, and looked in the direction of Shen Yun'an.
"My Lord, I heard that you have been to the Duke's Mansion these days?"
"Yes." Shen Yun'an nodded, met Xu Yuan's calm eyes, and his anger increased.
It turned out that Xu Yuan knew all these things, and chose to remain silent even though he knew that he was coming.
This Xu Yuan is really good!
But now, no matter how dissatisfied Shen Yun'an was in his heart, he still kept a smile on his face.
"Madam, how are you? I have been unable to sleep at night for some time, and I am always worried about you and Yi'er's condition."
"It's my fault. Can you give me another chance?"
"Chance?" Xu Yuan showed a meaningful expression, and his words were full of sarcasm.
"My Lord, I thought you came here to get a divorce."
Hearing Xu Yuan say this, Shen Yun'an immediately became anxious. He quickly came to Xu Yuan, squatted down, and looked at Xu Yuan.
With a very affectionate look, he said seriously, "Madam, you are my first wife, my most..."
"My Lord, what do you want to say?"
Xu Yuan interrupted Shen Yun'an. If he continued to talk, she would feel sick.
"Madam, I will never get a divorce with you. We already have Yi'er. Let's live a good life in the future."
"Do you mean you want me to go back to the Marquis' Mansion with you?"
Xu Yuan asked Shen Yun'an.
Shen Yun'an's tone was full of pleading.
"Madam, is it okay?"
Xu Yuan did not answer directly, but asked Shen Yun'an, "My Lord, have you done anything to let Yi'er and me down during my absence?"
Shen Yun'an's pupils suddenly shrank, and there was a moment of surprise on his face, but he quickly concealed the only panic.
He looked at Xu Yuan with some uncertainty for a moment.
Logically speaking, if Xu Yuan really knew something, how could she let it go so easily, not to mention that this was in the Duke's Mansion, as long as she didn't speak, he would have no chance to speak.
But if she didn't know something, how could Xu Yuan add Yi'er to some things.
There seemed to be something unusual here.
Shen Yun'an couldn't help feeling guilty when he met Xu Yuan's eyes, but he knew that those things must not be discovered by others.
Xu Yuan's words must be just a test for him.
He couldn't let Xu Yuan's bluffing throw him off.
"What are you talking about, Madam? The world can see my feelings for you, how could I do something to let you and Yi'er down."
"Really?" Xu Yuan hooked his lips.
Shen Yun'an nodded quickly, "Madam, can you just follow me back?"
"This..."
Seeing Xu Yuan hesitate, Shen Yun'an immediately felt that the opportunity had come.
Just as he was thinking about continuing to speak, he heard hurried footsteps.
Xu Jing appeared outside the yard with his men, and shouted at Shen Yun'an with a gloomy face.
"Shen Yun'an, how dare you appear here?"
"Is it because the wall is not high enough, and you used inferior methods to enter the Duke's Mansion?"
Since knowing what Xu Yuan had experienced, Xu Jing looked at Shen Yun'an more and more unpleasant, and spoke to him without politeness.
Shen Yun'an's body froze, and he saw that the guards behind Xu Jing were obviously coming for him.
He was determined to take Xu Yuan and the children back today.
Especially now that Xu Yuan had hesitated.
Shen Yun'an looked at Xu Yuan.
"Shen Yun'an, if you don't leave, I will let them do it." Xu Jing said coldly.
"Father-in-law, I will not divorce my wife no matter what. It was me who was estranged before. Please punish me, father-in-law."
"Punish?"
Xu Jing snorted coldly. He looked in the direction of Xu Yuan, "You said so."
"Bring the things here!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the guard brought a cane to Xu Jing.
"Shen Yun'an, you were the first to let Yuan'er down. Even her dowry became less for no reason. She just gave birth to a child but she had to accompany you to investigate the dowry." "
Do you know that if a woman does not take good care of herself after giving birth, she will be left with a root of disease!"
"If it weren't for Yuan'er's love for you, I would never let you appear here again. I will whip you three times as a warning. Are you willing?"
Shen Yun'an looked at the cane in Xu Jing's hand and felt a little scared. But Xu Jing meant that as long as he took these three canes, the matter would be over.
If so, he might as well do it.
For the sake of his future career, this time he could be regarded as bearing humiliation.
Thinking of this, Shen Yun'an immediately responded.
"As long as it can make my father-in-law calm down, I am willing."
