Chapter 46 She Got Angry

  Shen Guiya's face turned red despite her thick skin, and she tightly hugged Gu Zhaodong, not letting him leave, but couldn't argue back with a single sentence.

  "Brother, these words are not insulting to sister-in-law, but rather insulting me." Gu Zhaobei frowned, very seriously angry: "A lustful person's love is for lust, not just any woman. Brother has clearly misunderstood me."

  Shen Guiyan stood at the Moon Gate, having just finished watching a good show, with not much expression on her face. When she saw Shen Guiya rubbing against Gu Zhaobei, she felt nauseous and wanted to speak up, but that big brother had already shouted first. So she could only stand there.

  Gu Chao Bei had no interest in Shen Gui Ya, she could tell. It was just that his flirtatious attitude made her somewhat displeased.

  Although his hand was not broken and he could still push it away, why did he let that rouge smear all over his chest?

  Shen Guiyan didn't like men who were too sentimental, they always ended up losing sight of what was truly important.

  Gu Zhaobei, however, was still only watching the good show of Gu Zhaodong and Shen Guiya, and didn't notice Shen Guiyan beside him, who was hugging his arm and saying: "Elder sister's dance today is indeed stunning, if elder brother doesn't take good care of her, it's likely that he will be wearing a green hat on his head."

  Gu Chao Dong was so angry that his body trembled slightly, and he pulled Shen Gui Ya's arm to pull her in front of him. Looking at her dressed in this set of lingerie, he felt even more humiliated.

  How did he end up marrying such a woman?

  "Filial piety, send the young lady back home, you come with me to the main hall to talk." Taking a deep breath, Gu Zhaodong gritted his teeth, no longer caring about being pregnant or not. Shen Shilang was already in a precarious state, and she had humiliated him like this, it would be better to just divorce her directly, out of sight, out of mind!

  Shen Guiya had already begun to cry, the makeup on her face was not of modern quality, and tears streamed down, leaving black and red streaks: "Husband, I have your child in my belly, why won't you listen to me explain just one more sentence?"

  Gu Zhaodong let out a loud hum, and with one push, he pushed her into Feng Xiao's arms. He turned to leave, but just as he did, he came face to face with Shen Guiyan standing at the gate of the Moon Gate.

  "Swallow?" The expression on her face immediately softened, and Gu Zhaodong walked a few steps forward, looking at her, then at Gu Zhaobei: "Why are you standing here without making a sound?"

  Shen Guiyan smiled slightly and bowed to him: "Big brother, Shen Guiyan was just passing by. The lady asked me to send Big Sister back to the East Wing, and I happened to run into you, so I'll wait until you're done before sending her off."

  Gu Zhaobei only then saw her, his complexion slightly changed, with a hint of guilt in his heart, and he lightly coughed twice before walking out: "Right, just now Mother instructed Yan'er to find a doctor for Eldest Sister, I came this way to wait for Eldest Sister first, but unexpectedly..."

  He used to lie smoothly, but today, for some reason, Gu Zhaobei stuttered and glanced at Shen Guiyan with a hint of embarrassment.

  He knew Shen Guiya's mind, so he deliberately let Chuiyun call Dage, to teach this shameless woman a lesson, but unexpectedly, Yanyu was also by the side.

  Take a closer look, and there's not a ripple on Yan'er's face. Gu Zhaobei thought that when he went to the Drunken Flower Pavilion after their wedding, she didn't hold it against him; this time, he hadn't even done anything...

  "It's okay, I'll just send my sister-in-law back and that's it." Shen Guiyan didn't even glance at him, only letting Bao Dang come over to support Shen Guiya: "Let's go ahead first."

  Shen Guiya continued to cry, originally wanting to struggle, but her mind flashed and suddenly became obedient, allowing Bao Shan to support her, only the crying didn't stop.

  "Swallow." Gu Zhaodong's face was full of concern: "As the weather gets cooler and cooler, you should be careful with your cough, don't catch a cold."

  Before the two were married, Shen Guiyan had caught a cold and coughed, which didn't go away. At that time, Gu Zhaodong only showed concern with a poem, now he's even more concerned, not caring about his wife's infidelity, but instead telling her to be careful not to catch a chill.

  But they didn't have any malicious intent, so Shen Guiyan nodded: "I'll be careful, thank you big brother."

  Gu Zhao Bei stood beside him, not saying a word to Shen Gui Yan from start to finish. Looking at the expression in Gu Zhao Dong's eyes, he felt inexplicably annoyed: "Why doesn't big brother say something to big sister? It's cold outside and she's still wearing so little, I'm afraid the child won't want it."

  "She won't be your sister-in-law for long." Gu Zhaodong turned his head, his face cold: "Although Yaer was at fault today, Fourth Brother was also to blame. Since he has already married Yaner, why didn't he push Yaer away?"

  Gu Zhoubei snorted coldly: "If I pushed her away, would big brother still be able to see anything?"

  "Anyway, you should be better to Yan'er."

  "No need for you to worry, big brother." Gu Zhaobei shook his sleeve and glanced at Shen Guiyan who had already walked far away, slightly furrowing his brow.

  He didn't seem to have done anything wrong, so why did he always feel like she was angry? The person was clearly smiling and still gracious, but he just felt like she was annoyed, the first time since they got married.

  He turned around and headed towards the North Mansion, with Chui Yun following behind him. Only when they left the garden did he say: "Master, shouldn't you go to the Ministry of Punishment this afternoon?"

  "Hmm." Gu Zhaobei responded casually.

  Chui Yun hadn't noticed that he was spacing out and said with great enthusiasm: "Now that you've turned things around, many people are rushing to fawn over you. This afternoon, I had the carriage and horses prepared for you. With the Minister of Justice not being present, you're in charge, so you should show some presence."

  "Uh-huh."

  "Master, will you wear your official uniform this afternoon? It's already been delivered, along with the official seal..."

  "Chase the clouds." Gu Zhaobei stopped in his tracks and interrupted him.

  "Master?" Chui Yun raised his head and looked at him.

  Gu Chao Bei hesitated for a moment before speaking up, "If you've offended someone but they don't seem angry, what should you do?"

  "What?" Yun Meng ran.

  "Whatever, I didn't ask anyway." Gu Zhaobei snorted, thinking to himself that he was really foolish for asking Zhu Yun, that blockhead. Hadn't he been with countless women before? Couldn't he solve this on his own?

  Let's get down to business.

  One of the young masters Guo went to the Ministry of Punishment, while the other young master Guo went to the Main Hall. Shen Guiyan also took Shen Guiya back to the East Wing, each going their separate ways.

  Shen Guiya stopped crying after taking two steps and glared at Shen Guiyan with a fierce expression: "You're very happy, aren't you?"

  The swallow returned but Yan's head did not turn back.

  "I know you're laughing at me, okay, now it's time for me to rest." Shen Guiya snorted: "Zhao Bei said he didn't react, but I clearly felt something below when I leaned against him just now."

  Shen Guiyan stopped in her tracks, and Bao Shan's face turned red with anger. She couldn't care about social status anymore and opened her mouth to scold: "You shameless thing, how can you be so despicable, saying whatever comes to your mind!"

  "What can't be said?" Shen Guiya puffed out her chest, glanced at Bao Dian with a sly look: "If it weren't for being interrupted outside, if we were in the room, Chao Bei would have already...with me, believe it or not?"

  "They all say that what men like most is a woman's body, and things like self-respect and shame are just for show. Shen Guiya curled her lips: "Gu Zhaodong is a man, and so is Zhaobei, you don't need to have any illusions."

  "Is that all?" Shen Guiyan asked softly without looking at her.

  Shen Guiya pushed open the door and walked to Shen Guiyan's back, saying: "No, I can rob Chao Dong, naturally I can also rob Chao Bei. You, a mere feudal woman, dare to compete with 21st-century modern women? Just wait and see them all bow down under my skirt."

  Baoyan was pushed by her and stumbled, already out of breath. When she heard her say such words, she couldn't hold back anymore. She stepped forward and pushed her: "You dirty woman, stay away from my young mistress!"

  This is exactly what I've been waiting for!

  Shen Guiya's eyes lit up, and she took the opportunity to show off her superb acting skills. With a flick of her water sleeves, she let out a loud cry and violently threw herself to one side.

  Shen Guiyan was startled and quickly grabbed her arm, but was fiercely pinched by Shen Guiya and instinctively let go of his hand.

  This was on the way from the garden to the east wing, just as a servant happened to pass by, he saw Fourth Young Master's wife push Eldest Young Master's wife aside.

  Shen Guiya exerted herself and fell backwards, still fearing it wasn't enough, so she rolled a few more times, directly crashing into the flower stand on one side.

  "Oh no—my stomach!"

  Bao Shan's face turned pale, and she hurriedly went forward to support her. However, Shen Guiya pushed her away and shouted loudly: "Someone come! Save me! Someone is trying to murder the heir of the Prime Minister's family! Save me!"

  At this shout, all the family servants came over. Shen Guiyan pulled Bao Shan to her back and took off her own outer cloak to cover Shen Guiya, her voice still somewhat calm: "Go invite a doctor."

  "Yes." Bao Shan hastily ran away.

  In the main hall, Gu Zhaodong told Madame Gu about Shen Guiya's behavior and asked her to write a divorce letter.

  "Nowadays, it's not bad to let her go." Mrs. Gu frowned and said: "But she is pregnant with your child, that is a legitimate son, how can you just abandon him?"

  "But she really can't be a wife." Gu Zhaodong said with a painful face: "My son is now more regretful than ever for being so rash at the beginning."

  "Alas, Dong Er, you should know that the child in the south courtyard is gone. Your father and I are already heartbroken enough. If you say no, your grandfather will not agree under any circumstances."

  Gu Zhaodong was silent, he had already thought of this result before coming, it's just that now Gu Zhaobei has become an official, making it even harder to take Yan'er away. If Shen Guiya were still here, getting in the way and causing trouble, Yan'er would be even more unforgiving towards him.

  What can we do?

  "Milady! Milady!" The maid outside rushed in, panting: "It's terrible! Fourth Young Master's wife has pushed Eldest Young Master's wife to the ground. Eldest Young Master's wife is clutching her belly and crying out in pain. It's feared that she won't be able to keep the child!"

  "What?!" Gu Chao Dong and Mrs. Gu both stood up at the same time.

  There were many people gathered outside the east wing, just like when Xu Mengdie lost her child. Shen Guiyan stood outside, but there was no expression on her face.

  Originally thought it might be Bao Ze's carelessness, but judging from Shen Guiya pinching her just now, Shen Guiyan knew she couldn't escape this time.

  Since we can't run away from it, what's there to worry about?
