Chapter 338: He Wants to Elope With Me!
The morning of the third day, for once, Ning Shu didn’t sleep in and waited at the entrance of the courtyard the moment the sun rose. She even had Yue Lan hang up two strings of firecrackers.
Soon, she saw two figures heading this way. He Xiaohua was wearing festive-colored garments and Wen Ruhua was wearing the brand new clothes. However, Wen Ruhua looked very green even though He Xiaohua looked as if she was glowing. It seemed that Wen Ruhua had serviced her very well.
“Light the firecrackers,” said Ning Shu. Yue Lan trembled as she cautiously lit the strings of firecrackers.
The sudden appearance of those loud crackling sounds startled Wen Ruhua and He Xiaohua. With a slight blush, He Xiaohua greeted Ning Shu with a call of cousin.
Ning Shu happily returned her greeting and called He Xiaohua cousin as well. Wen Ruhua’s face immediately turned ashened. It felt like Wen Ruhua was just a tub of explosives. He showed such a strong reaction to every little thing.
He Xiaohua brought over some presents, then headed to the kitchen to prepare lunch since it was necessary to eat lunch here.
Ning Shu asked Wen Ruhua, “Cousin, how have you been? You and Xiaohua look quite happy.”
Wen Ruhua’s face contorted, then he actually smiled warmly towards Ning Shu. The moment Ning Shu saw this smile, all the hair on her body rose up on end from disgust. Wen Ruhua’s face was very gaunt now, and due to his pale pallor, his smile looked very unnatural and unsightly.
Ning Shu smacked her lips. “Cousin, you seem very haggard.”
“Who do you think caused this!?” Wen Ruhua couldn’t stop himself from shouting at Ning Shu.
“What’s wrong?” He Xiaohua came to the kitchen door with a pot and looked at Ning Shu and Wen Ruhua with confusion.
Wen Ruhua immediately replied, “It’s nothing.”
“Talk to our cousin properly, why are you yelling at her?” After saying that, He Xiaohua walked back into the kitchen.
Ning Shu looked at Wen Ruhua weirdly. “Cousin, you seem to be getting along with Xiaohua really well?”
Actually, it looked like Wen Ruhua was a little scared of He Xiaohua. Had He Xiaohua really managed to subdue Wen Ruhua in three days?
Wen Ruhua reached out to grab Ning Shu’s hands, but Ning Shu moved her hands out of the way. Wen Ruhua’s facial muscle spasmed, but he still said warmly, “Cousin, let’s elope.”
“Pffff… Cough cough.” Ning Shu hammered her chest. She had choked on her spit.
“What are you saying?” Ning Shu looked at him with astonishment. Wen Ruhua immediately looked towards her with agony and lingering affection on his face. His eyes contained regret, deep affection, and helplessness, as he said, “Cousin, I really regret it now. I shouldn’t have been so stubborn in the past and refused to accept you. It was only after I got married to He Xiaohua that I realized you were the one that I’ve always loved. Everything I did was because I cared about you. Cousin, let’s go. Let’s go travel the world. If you want me to take the imperial exam, I can do it. I just want to be with you forever.”
Ning Shu: …
Completely left speechless.
“But you’ve already gotten married with Cousin Xiaohua, how can you abandon her? How will she be able to hold her face up to the world?” said Ning Shu with disdain in her tone.
Wen Ruhua waved. “What does Xiaohua have to do with me? The only reason I married her was because I was forced to. I don’t love her at all. Cousin, let’s leave this place together.”
“Cousin, what exactly happened? If you tell me, we can come up with an idea together. Qinxiang also feels bad seeing you in so much pain,” said Ning Shu gently.
Wen Ruhua gritted his teeth painfully, then took a deep breath and said, “Qinxiang, I’ve never seen a woman as unrestrained as He Xiaohua. On the bed, she’s unbelievably violent, she pays no attention to my feelings, and she’s always so excited. You should know as well that I have no feelings for He Xiaohua. I don’t want to have intercourse with her at all. Qinxiang, from start to finish, you’ve always been the one that I love. I don’t even have a bit of feeling for He Xiaohua, but she never takes my feelings into consideration.”
You freaking deserve it. Did you ever consider Mu Yanmeng’s feelings when you raped her?
Ning Shu shouted towards the kitchen, “Cousin Xiaohua, my cousin says he wants to elope with me! He wants to elope with me!”
