Tyrannical Wang's Beloved Wife

Chapter 572.2: Jing Wan Thoroughly Climbing on Top

He was selfish, never having thought of just putting out and not asking for anything in return. He was continuously waiting, waiting for Jing Wan to return him an equal amount of love. And at this very moment, he clearly had already obtained it.

He wanted to hold her, he wanted to kiss her, and in reality, he indeed did just that.

Just, the white bandages on him were only halfway done. Gong Jiu originally tried to ignore that sweet and bitter atmosphere between the two masters as much as possible, just wanting to quickly finish, and then swiftly leave. Yet, in the end, he still wasn’t able to achieve his goal. When wangye went to embrace wangfei, he had no choice but to pull back. It was better to just leave, and finish later when wangfei’s emotions have stabilized. In any case, although it indeed injured the heart, it wasn’t deep, just the outer edges, also not injuring the main artery. After stopping the bleeding, and resting a while, it should be fine.

Gong Jiu went out. Meeting with the others’ gaze, his body somewhat stiffened. Just now, he all didn’t feel awkward, yet now felt awkward from the stares, “I’m going to prepare the medicine.” Waving his sleeve, he left swiftly.

Holding Jing Wan, he ruthlessly kissed her, even wanting to thoroughly possess her, but right now, the time, place, and circumstance all didn’t allow it, thus could only give up.

“Wan Wan, it was my fault, I promise, there won’t be a next time. Believe me, for me, there isn’t anything that can be more important than you. Even if not having you in my eyes, that is still having you entirely stored in my heart. I love you, I love you, I love you……..” Li Hong Yuan had Jing Wan held in his arms, stroking her back again and again, softly muttering.

Jing Wan silently shed tears. In this life as Luo Jing Wan, the tears she has shed, all the other times added together, even including her infancy, all weren’t as much as the ones she shed for him. “Don’t do this kind of absurd thing again. Next time, I really will kill you. If one stab isn’t enough, then two, three, four…….have you chopped into pieces.”

“There won’t be a next time, there won’t be a next time, I promise…..”

For Jing Wan to be able to vent it out, also knowing the root of the problem, Li Hong Yuan relaxed a breath. He was really afraid that she would stay like previously, blank and emotionless.

However, his wife sure enough still didn’t change at all deep down. When ruthless, that was really being ruthless.

The impression Jing Wan left on the others was actually even deeper. Even Gong mama probably all never thought that Jing Wan would do this kind of thing. The things involved in this already completely exceeded the scale of just the problems between husband and wife. He was a qinwang, deeply favored by the emperor. Even if as his wangfei, never mind nearly killing him, even if just having that kind of intention, it was also an enormous crime that will bring disaster to the whole family and even entire clan. But, Jing Wan did just that, not hesitating in the slightest.

Aiming at the heart, that was just going for his life.

If switched with others, even if hating to the extreme, pained to the extreme, still wouldn’t do this kind of thing. In fact, they won’t even produce this kind of thought. ——–Of course, not including those ambitious women that held ulterior motives. The nature of that was completely different. However, for them, when it comes to killing, it was probably just doing it behind the back using underhanded methods, and won’t be like Jing Wan, openly doing it in front of numerous eyes.

However, wangye’s reaction wasn’t surprising either, once again deeply witnessing wangfei’s high standing in wangye’s heart. That’s why, the greatest master, sure enough, was still wangfei. In the future, it was best to be careful. Don’t look at how wangfei appeared gentle and kind, when truly angered, or becoming ruthless, she would absolutely kill someone.

The previous matter seemingly already drained Jing Wan’s energy. This while, leaning in Li Hong Yuan’s arms, she just fell asleep. Sure enough, regardless what happens, this man’s arms was the harbor that she felt the safest in. Unknowingly, this already formed into a habit. Clearly, prior to falling in love with him, she was always rational, her thoughts absolutely independent, not relying on others, instead even unintentionally becoming others’ safe harbor.

Li Hong Yuan held Jing Wan. He rather wasn’t overly careful and cautious, but he knew what kind of posture can let Jing Wan sleep comfortably. Just, when not facing Jing Wan, the him right now was just a true demon king. Perhaps it wasn’t as cold and terrifying as previously when he had his emotions sealed, but that air was still intimidating, making one unable to breathe.

After Gong Jiu confirmed that the substitute gu didn’t exist in Jing Wan’s body, Li Hong Yuan’s suspended heart finally returned to its original place. The thing he cared about the most was resolved, so for the rest, there was nothing that can impede him anymore. Then, the anger from them scheming against him and thereby targeting Jing Wan, he also didn’t need to continue suppressing. The icy outer layer that surrounded the volcano that was on the verge of erupting had already shattered. Regardless of who, all will need to pay the price for their actions. As for during this period of time, how many innocent people will get caught in the crossfire, that wasn’t within his scope of consideration.

TN: All

During this period, the gu Gong Jiu came in contact with increased more and more. His memories regarding gu also grew with each passing day, just that strangely, suddenly appearing. Even now, he perhaps had already became an expert in gu, at least in theory, but the origins of these memories were still unknown.

Perhaps there will be an answer in the future, or perhaps he will never know the answer, but as his understanding grew, Gong Jiu detected in his body, traces of a gu having existed before. Right now, that gu had already disappeared. If his deduction is correct, then it should be the ‘forget gu’, and what he forgot was just the things regarding gu. Perhaps, precisely because the gu disappeared, he would thus strangely gain these extra memories. He had interest in gu. As for how he knew these things, he didn’t care, and whether or not he can find out, it also didn’t matter. When he became a shadow guard, everything in the past, regardless whether or not there was some great love or grudge, all just became the past, because shadow guards were just the master’s vassals, not having a sense of self.

Being interested in gu didn’t mean that he wanted to raise. ‘To know oneself is to know one’s enemy, coming unscathed through a hundred battles’^[1]. He just didn’t want to suffer from gu in the future. The sourcᴇ of this content is novelenglish.net . Fɪre.net

Just, the first time ‘using’ this knowledge, for removing the love-locking gu, there was an error in the predictions. However, through various coincidences, the final goal was still achieved. In the future, if encountering again, sure enough, need to be even more careful.

Ruan Fang Fei’s corpse naturally got discovered already, although much later than expected. It can be seen just how unpopular she was. However, her existence ultimately was special.

Inside the thatched cottage, perhaps it was still quiet, but outside, the swords were already drawn, the arrows mounted.

Li Hong Yuan only had one order: kill!

Jing Wan needed to raise the fetus, while Li Hong Yuan needed to nurse his injury. This all required a quiet and stable environment. That’s why, even if knowing the situation outside, Li Hong Yuan still didn’t let it influence the inside. Regardless whether it was Gong Jiu or Gong mama, they all just handled their own matters, seemingly as if the matters outside had nothing to do with them.

And this rest, Jing Wan just slept for almost an entire day and night. After Gong Jiu repeatedly confirmed that it really was just purely sleeping, Li Hong Yuan finally relaxed. During this time, he also appropriately rested a few times, but every time, it all wasn’t considered long. Right now, he still needed to oversee the situation.

After Jing Wan woke up, she also didn’t expect that she would sleep for this long, but her spirit indeed returned. Especially after Li Hong Yuan personally fed her enough food, it was a bit like her days back in the manor.

After recovering, some things, she was also able to go face.

“Ah Yuan, where did your love-locking gu come from? Did you also get unknowingly poisoned by someone?” This possibility, Jing Wan didn’t believe.

“Because of the substitute gu. Ruan Fang Fei wanted to plant the love-locking in me, while waving the knife over her own body.” That’s why, Li Hong Yuan unhesitantly accepted the gu.

Jing Wan was speechless. Even if it was proven that he’d actually gotten deceived, at the time, because of her, even if carrying ninety-nine percent doubt, he still won’t hesitate. Because he cared too much, that’s why, he would rather believe that it existed than believe that it didn’t. If it didn’t involve her, then that kind of simple and crude method, how could it work on him…….

“Merely a bug, I never believed that it had that kind of extraordinary ability.”

“Yet, in reality, you indeed fell head first on this matter.” Jing Wan mocked. Alright, she actually didn’t believe that bug’s abilities either.

“Wan Wan, when hitting someone, you don’t hit the face, and when exposing, don’t expose the shortcoming.”

“Ruan Fang Fei originally should also be under control, yet in the end, she escaped leaving behind a cicada shell.” Jing Wan continued heartlessly exposing.

Li Hong Yuan was helpless. His wife clearly was still angry. “I’d suspected, and had also let people investigate before, just didn’t find out anything, so didn’t bother with it anymore. After all, when Zhong Qinwang Manor caught fire, we weren’t in the capital. It was I that underestimated certain people, causing an oversight. In the future, it won’t happen again.” Sure enough, from the start, should’ve just eliminated by the roots, just……….

“All things shouldn’t be generalized, and instead need to determine according to the situation.”

Regarding Ruan Fang Fei, she perhaps also needed to take a bit of the responsibility. At the time, because Ruan Fang Fei had schemed against her, in turn involving the Luo family, it made her very angry, for a time, feeling that simply having her stomped to death was truly too easy on her. A certain someone had been spying on her in the dark, so for him to know her thoughts, it wasn’t that strange, and the various matters afterwards indeed made Ruan Fang Fei live worse than death. If according to a certain someone’s usual style, then he might’ve just had Ruan Fang Fei killed from the start.

That’s why, this hole, in the very beginning, was even dug by her? Jing Wan expressed that she won’t admit. Something from eight hundred years ago, she’d long forgotten.

However, this while, Jing Wan also didn’t feel Ruan Fang Fei died too conveniently. Sure enough, should’ve just been more straightforward and decisive about it.

This saying was rather forceful, carrying the stance of not allowing anyone to comment. Towards his wife planning on ‘being unyielding by having reason’, Li Hong Yuan was also helpless. Who let him be at fault this time, lacking in confidence. However, speaking of which, clearly he was the one that was injured. Never mind having no one consoling, no one feeling sorry for him, he even needed to lower himself. But, who let this be the most precious treasure he cupped in his palm. Thus, he could only pinch his nose and accept.
