Ex-Girlfriend Blackens Every Day: Chapter 38
ARC 3: SWAPPED EX-GIRLFRIEND (6)
Were they not hated enemies that would fight to the death?
He personally calculated against her and delivered her to that man!
A normal person would be dying to kill him, but when he looked at Linlang's smiling impression, it didn't appear to be fake.
"Actually, I should like to thank you. I have been in love with His Majesty for a long time, but my marriage contract only allowed me to watch him from afar. I didn't expect to be with him one day. It was just like a dream."
For some reason, when Wei Yu saw the longing in her eyes, he felt an arrow strike his heart.
It would seem that his dignified self...is wearing a green hat?
"His Majesty is tender and considerate, knowledgeable, and witty. He always finds amusing ways to bring me joy. He is much more exciting than Brother Yu."
Wei Yu was struck by another arrow.
"However... there is one thing that upsets this sister."
Finally, we get to the point.
The man felt refreshed and his jade-like eyes watched her closely.
"I don't like someone replacing my position in front of my parents," she said quietly.
"That can no longer be changed."
Wei Yu appeared very calm as he expressed his airtight argument. "You may reveal her identity, but you are registered in the royal genealogy as a lady from the Ming family. Should you expose this matter to the public, the House of Zhou will be destroyed and all nine clans will be exterminated.
"Furthermore, you will be charged with deceiving the monarch. Are you certain the emperor will be able to protect you when the time comes?" He had a confident expression on his face.
Threatening over the slightest disagreement!
This little cheap person was worthy of being called an old fox.
So everything will be her fault?
Linlang cracked a smile and hugged the hand warmer to her chest. "I don't dare to reason with Brother Yu. As long as you promise to do three things for me, I will keep this secret forever. What do you say?"
Wei Yu: "..."
So all those emotional words before were mere drivel?!
This person just wanted to play with him!
Wei Yu felt like the qi in his body was deviating. For the first time in his life, he felt suffocated.
"I promise. What would Your Highness like?" He endured the irritation to see what tricks she was going to play.
"If you stand there, my words may not remain private between us. The walls have ears."
Linlang stood up and beckoned him over.
Was there a trap?
Wei Yu hesitated.
The woman in the palace dress standing in the pavilion was like a classical portrait of a court lady. The fluffy fox fur coat gave her a cute quality, and with the snowy landscape in the background, her beauty couldn't be absorbed all at once.
He thought to himself, what could such a woman who looked frail enough to be blown away do to him?
As a result, Wei Yu walked in great strides but was cautious enough to leave some distance between them.
"A bit closer," Linlang said.
It was only until she could lean over his ear and her warm breath was mixed with the light fragrance of crab apples that she said, "The first thing is..."
Plop!
A slender figure fell into the lake.
There was quite a bit of splashing.
Wei Yu swallowed several mouthfuls of icy water, and even some mud particles entered his nose.
He was at a complete loss.
Just now, his behind was kicked?!
The disgrace!
Wei Yu glared at the woman standing in the pavilion.
As for the culprit, she was smiling as she leaned on the red banister with the expression of someone watching a bustling scene.
Wei Yu had no image to speak of. He looked like a duck flapping in the water as he struggled to get back to shore. Then he heard the scoundrel say, "Can't even bear this level of suffering, yet Brother Yu dares to negotiate with me?"
Wei Yu: "..."
It was annoying, but Ben Wang1 insists on maintaining this smile!
He took a deep breath and turned his head.
"Then what does Your Highness command?"
She bent down slightly, her elbows resting on the banister as she lightly touched his beautiful face in a lazy, but tempting manner.
Wei Yu was actually caught up in the moment.
He grew up with Zhou Linlang since childhood and was very familiar with her appearance. Although she was a famous beauty, the novelty waned over time.
But looking at her in this way, it did not seem as dull?
"There hasn't been much entertainment. Why not swim ten laps and take it as my playtime?"
Wei Yu: "..."
What else can he say!
Wei Yu immediately withdrew his previous thoughts.
What beauty? She's clearly an evil spirit!
A thin layer of ice had formed on the lake's surface. Although Wei Yu was in the habit of practicing martial arts to strengthen his body, he could not resist the cold.
He nearly went into convulsions during the laps.
Linlang had a bit of conscience and didn't kill the male lead. She called a team of guards to carry him out.
That night, The prince's manor was thrown into chaos.
Apparently, the old fox was unconscious for three days.
Knowing that he was having a hard time made her very happy.
Linlang was completely at ease as she listened to Yuan Bao's report.
When the man showed up again in the afternoon, Linlang was lazily basking under the sun, and her complexion had a shade of red.
"Speak, what is the second thing?"
He just wanted to break away from this killer as soon as possible.
Linlang was surprised. "When did I tell you to do the first thing?"
Wei Yu: "..."
Patient, I have to be patient.
This little girl was deliberately provoking Ben Wang!
Wouldn't getting angry be a part of her plan?
The man took deep breaths to press the rage to the depths of his heart. He retained the appearance of a courteous gentleman. "Please issue the first thing."
She thought about it for a while then clapped her hands together and said, "I have never heard Brother Yu tell a joke. If you make me laugh, it can be regarded as the first thing!"
Wei Yu looked at her suspiciously. She was kind enough to let him go?
Since that night in the royal garden, he came to really understand Linlang's wickedness. She seemed weak and innocent on the surface, but her belly was full of sinister tricks!
He was deceived by her appearances before!
But, could this little villain have found her conscience?
After he fell into this trail of thought, Wei Yu coughed then told some jokes he knew.
As a result, half a day passed. Her melon seeds had piled up to a hill and his throat was sore, yet the person only looked at him. She didn't even reveal a smile!
Linlang wiped her fingers clean, "What a pity. Your Highness, your humor is truly..." She covered her mouth, "I don't know what wit those ladies spoke of. Could you have given them money?"
Wei Yu: "..."
That was too much. It's one thing not to laugh, but now you're attacking his character!
After returning to the prince manor, Wei Yu immediately asked his men to collect various folk jokes; the stranger the better.
He refused to believe that he was lesser than this woman!
Feng Sisi accidentally came across him reciting jokes in secret. She thought he was preparing them for her and waited in happy anticipation.
Unexpectedly, he did all that to please the consort in the palace!
Feng Sisi's handkerchief fell to the ground. A pair of lifeless eyes stared at the scene under the pavilion.
The consort was dressed in a long satin skirt. She was leaning back languidly against the banister. She seemed to have heard something hilarious and was so amused that she nearly lost her footing. The man quickly moved forward and caught her before she slipped.
Linlang leaned against Wei Yu's chest and her face was streaming with tears.
"Was it that funny?" Wei Yu asked helplessly.
It was such an ordinary joke that he never thought the girl who always pulled a long face would laugh out of the blue. Her reaction brought forth a sense of flattery.
She smiled so beautifully, and the open mouth that revealed a hint of red was reminiscent of a cherry fruit dangling on a branch, just waiting for someone to take a bite.
She looked so unguarded as she was wrapped in his arms, her body shaking from the bouts of laughter like an innocent child.
Wei Yu was caught in a trance. Then again, his childhood sweetheart was only fifteen years old. She was still young had not yet come of age when he so callously replaced her with Feng Sisi and sent her unconscious body to that tyrant.
He destroyed her in a sense.
Ruined the innocence of a young girl.
He was truly fond of Feng Sisi, but he didn't know why he feels distressed for another, especially one he personally abandoned as a chess piece.
Wei Yu returned to his manor with a heavy heart.
Feng Sisi went to hide in her room. When he heard she had no appetite, he didn't pay much attention to this and told the servants to take care of her before retiring to his study.
The next day, he arrived so early that Linlang remarked with a smile, "It seems that Brother Yu is eager to get rid of my troublesome self."
He opened his mouth with a wish to say, No, that isn't so. I just had an ineffable desire to see you a bit sooner.
But those words were too ambiguous to say. She was his brother’s woman, his sister-in-law.
"For the second thing, I have a precious crab apple seed bestowed by His Majesty. If you can make it bloom within a month, it will be regarded as a pass."
She spread open her white palm to reveal a glossy seed that had the luster of ceramic glaze.
Wei Yu pursed his lips and reached for it.
The other party quickly pulled back. Tilting her head slightly, she looked at him with a mischievous face that said, "Come take it if you can."
Wei Yu: "..."
This person is growing more childish.
There was no one around, so he took a step forward and reached behind her back.
The two were stuck close to one another, making it possible to smell the faint fragrance of her hair. The gorgeous buyao1 shook from her dodging movements, and the crisp sound of jade beads striking one another could be heard.
She was as slippery as a fish, always craftily able to slip through his gaps. Wei Yu was aggravated by her playfulness and simply grabbed the person to search her body.
Linlang whined like a small animal. "You're hurting me."
"My, my apologies!"
The man realized his hooligan behavior and released her with a red face. His palms that just touched her felt hot.
"Then, I will take my leave."
He, who had taken liberties with a lady, nearly fled from her presence.
Perhaps even he didn't realize that the balance in his heart was slowly leaning towards Linlang.
Being moved by your own chess piece was a bit funny.
Linlang lowered her head and chuckled.
