Chapter 1211: Chapter 1217: Xiang Yun Loses Her Temper (4)

She cried in heartache, her face marked with tear stains, filled with a sense of wrong. She glanced at Mo Zili and turned, walking towards the Western Room. That night, she didn’t appear again...

...

Du Wanqing walked out from the Cool Autumn Pavilion, with Old Lady Zhang, who waited upon her, fawningly supporting her arm and said,

"Girl, be careful, it’s gotten dark, this servant will support you as you walk!"

Du Wanqing smiled gently, softly said, "Thank you, Mother!"

Old Lady Zhang laughed and said, "Listen to the girl talking. You are the master, and serving you is this servant’s duty. If the girl has any instructions, just tell this servant. This servant would risk her life to fulfil your heart’s desire!"

"Mother Zhang is really thoughtful. Having Mother to serve me is Wanqing’s good fortune. Please help me make another bowl of thick bone soup tomorrow and deliver it to the young master!" Du Wanqing, holding Mother Zhang’s hand, chatted and laughed while walking, in a very good mood.

These past few days, Zili hadn’t come to see her, nor had he sent someone to ask about her or bring her anything, which made her feel extremely anxious. It had not been easy to latch onto this dignified and elegant nobleman, and she would not allow him to slip through her fingers.

After careful consideration, she thought that the reason the man hadn’t appeared was firstly because she had caused trouble at Mi Fangzhai and, behind his back, had become pregnant, which angered him; secondly, it was very likely that he had been spending his days with his noble wife and had grown affectionate towards her!

This thought panicked her. She knew the man’s nature: to love deeply or despise intensely. If his love was lost, she truly would have nothing left!

In desperation, she painfully gifted one of her purple jade pendants and a pair of purple jade earrings she wore to Old Lady Zhang and Old Woman Wang, who served her, bribing them to become her allies.

Today, Old Lady Zhang heard from the front that Xiang Yun was not at home and hurriedly came back to inform her of this news. Du Wanqing saw her chance and took action. Although she hadn’t successfully placated Mo Zili, she had successfully ignited the conflict between Mo Zili and his wife, which was also a considerable achievement!

Xiang Yun was very sad. After persuasion from her mother and grandmother, she had just resolved to live properly with her husband, but his behavior had timely reminded her that he would never sincerely live life with her alone because he had another woman, the woman he truly loved. Now that they even had a child together, hoping that her husband would turn back and be devoted to her alone was truly foolish!

In the darkness, Xiang Yun tossed and turned, wondering what she should do. Divorce was impossible because it would bring great shame to the family clan. But if things continued like this, watching their display of affection every day, wouldn’t she be infuriated to death?

Ah, what should she do?

At this moment, just like her, unable to sleep, was her tirelessly resentful Mo Zili. He didn’t know why, but the image of Xiang Yun crying like a child kept surfacing in his mind, making his heart hurt intermittently. Though Du Wanqing also cried, looking so fragile and helpless, which would have normally moved him, after experiencing Xiang Yun’s tearful, childlike crying, Du Wanqing’s tears left no mark in his heart, as if they never happened.

His heart and the visions before him were filled with the sight of Xiang Yun’s tear-streaked, wronged face.

What was happening? Why was it like this? Why did he keep thinking about Xiang Yun? His affection had always been for Wanqing. Towards Xiang Yun, he only felt guilt. But why, seeing her cry so miserably, did his heart ache so much?
