Capítulo 1525: Chapter 1526: Husband, don’t you have anything to say?
…
As soon as Xiao Changyi returned from Gong Juechen’s place, he poured himself a cup of tea and downed it in one go.
After finishing one cup, still feeling it wasn’t enough to suppress his anger, Xiao Changyi poured himself another and downed it again.
An Jing, who was packing things, saw Xiao Changyi drink two cups of tea in a row upon returning, and couldn’t help but chuckle, “I told you, going to settle accounts with him would only leave you upset.”
She stopped packing since there weren’t many things anyway, and besides, they wouldn’t return to the Capital for another two days, so there was no rush.
Sitting down next to Xiao Changyi, An Jing asked, “Didn’t you express anything?”
“I did.”
“How did you express it?” An Jing was immediately curious.
“I punched him, made him spit blood.”
“…” An Jing was momentarily silent, “Were you a bit too heavy-handed?”
“He’s not scared of being hit.”
“…True.” After a pause, “So what was the result? Didn’t he listen at all?”
“He always acts on his own.”
Hearing this, An Jing sighed, “He can’t go on like this. Chengyu’s increasing suspicion of him won’t do him any good.”
Xiao Changyi said nothing, only poured himself another cup of tea, then downed it. After finishing, he said angrily, “It’s his own doing.”
An Jing sighed again before asking, “Did he admit it?”
“Would he admit it?”
An Jing immediately laughed, “That’s why I didn’t ask him. I just knew he wouldn’t admit it. He likes Ye Zhi so much but still didn’t tell her the truth, even lied to her saying his master instructed him to hide his martial arts because his master thought people’s hearts are sinister and told him not to stand out too much. Ye Zhi even believed him, said he swore.”
“Sigh.” As she spoke, An Jing sighed again, “It seems he doesn’t even care about the deities.”
Xiao Changyi simply said, “Really don’t want to bother with him anymore.” That man is nothing but trouble! Only makes him annoyed!
An Jing instantly burst into laughter, knowing this was her husband’s angry words. Her husband is the elder brother, and he promised their adoptive father, which means her husband wouldn’t just ignore Gong Juechen.
“Alright, alright, don’t be mad.” An Jing consoled, “When we return to the Capital, Ye Zhi will marry him. With Ye Zhi by his side day and night, he should change and not act so recklessly anymore.”
“You’re too optimistic.”
An Jing chuckled, “I have to be optimistic; I don’t want to be as bothered as you. Seriously, don’t be mad, he’s always been like that, being mad won’t help. Think of happy things, like how we’re leaving for the Capital in two days, and once we get back to the Imperial Capital, we’ll see our kids… isn’t that exciting?”
Thinking of their four children, Xiao Changyi finally wasn’t angry anymore, a faint smile appeared, and he nodded lightly, “Hmm.”
Subsequently, An Jing happily chatted with Xiao Changyi about their four children for quite some time.
Their four kids had even written them a letter last time, though it was brief, it brought them much joy.
“By the way, husband,” An Jing suddenly remembered something, “Do you remember Linghe? I heard both she and her son were killed by the order of the Emperor of Chilin.”
Xiao Changyi knew Linghe was dead when he took over the Imperial Palace of Chilin, and that she was abused to death by the guards, but Xiao Changyi thought that matter was too sordid, so he didn’t tell An Jing to spare her ears.
