Chapter 346: He Sanlang Doesn’t Know How to Placate His Wife (1) (1/2)
Not long after Chu Lian’s carriage had left the camp, He Changdi came chasing after her on a horse with two of his subordinates in tow.
There was a brazier burning within the carriage, but it was still cold and breezy. In the northern border, it was so cold that spit would turn into ice the moment it hit the ground. The fleece rug and blankets that had originally been placed inside the carriage had been used to replace He Changdi’s bedding, so all that was left were bare wooden boards. Chu Lian wasn’t used to the cold and hard interior yet.
Wenqing heard the sound of hurried hoofbeats outside the carriage, so she lifted the curtain slightly to peek outside. Her face lit up with happiness and she turned to Chu Lian. While speaking, she adjusted the large fur cloak on her mistress properly. “Third Young Madam, Third Young Master has come to send you off.”
Chu Lian was still angry at that lunatic husband of hers and had no desire to see him at this point. All she did was harrumph in reaction to Wenqing’s words.
Wenqing started getting anxious when she saw Third Young Madam’s reaction. However, there was nothing she could do.
Chu Lian was intent on stewing in her anger in the carriage. Meanwhile, He Sanlang had never been a man who was good at placating his wife, let alone after reincarnating from his previous life. The thought of shamelessly begging his wife for forgiveness had never even crossed his mind. Thus, he kept his face cold and continued following by Chu Lian’s carriage on his horse, escorting her silently all the way back to the He Estate in Liangzhou City.
He dismounted from his horse and stood by the carriage. It wasn’t until he finally saw Chu Lian as she was being helped down from the carriage by Wenlan, that his deep, dark gaze finally lit up with some life. He moved forward with some urgency, intending to help Chu Lian, but when he received a fierce glare from his wife in return, he pulled his hand back.
As he was right now, He Sanlang looked like a poor dog who had been abandoned by his master…
After Chu Lian glared at him, she simply walked straight into the He Estate without Wenqing and Wenlan’s support, treating He Changdi as if he was thin air.
He Sanlang stood silently by the entrance of the estate as the cold winter winds blew past.
The two subordinates who had followed after him lowered their heads with scared looks on their faces, afraid that their captain would turn around to take his anger out on them instead.
Damn it, which brat had told them that there would be good food to eat if they accompanied the captain to the He Estate!? They were going to kill him when they got back to camp!
