Chapter 182: You Mustn’t Say Such Words
Although the courier waiting at the gatehouse ended up with such a result after so long and was not pleased, he had no choice since the recipient was not present and could only return sulkily. Fortunately, there was a consolation for him and his efforts did not go completely to waste!
Shi Fengju heard from Zhan Huan about the result and burst out laughing. He waved his hand to signal Zhan Huan to leave, and felt even more delighted at the thought of what happened.
Such a person should have been treated in such a way in the first place! Thankfully Big Sister isn’t completely ignorant and knew when she should not give in.
When Sang Wan returned and saw the delighted expression on Shi Fengju’s face, she asked curiously with a smile, “What made you so happy? Did a huge gold bar drop from the sky?
Shi Fengju laughed and said, “What is there to be happy about a huge gold bar dropping from the sky?”
Sang Wan knew it was her slip of tongue and nodded, “You’re very right! To you, Lord, only a beautiful goddess descending from the sky is worthy of making you happy!”
Shi Fengju proceeded to hold her hand and laughed, “What beautiful goddess? I already have one —— cough, leave, the rest of you!” Shi Fengju chased everyone else away, including Liu Ya, while he was halfway through his words.
“I already have you, why would I still need some beautiful goddess!” Seeing that all of them had left, he quickly pulled her into his embrace and rubbed her slightly cool cheeks while commenting before giving her two pecks on her cheeks.
Sang Wan’s face blushed and she gently pushed him. Flustered, she complained softly, “Who would want to hear these sweet nothings from you!”
Shi Fengju loved seeing her blushing face. As he watched her, he continued to say more sweet nothings to her, and that made Sang Wan’s face blush even more and her heart beat faster. He finally released her from his embrace and told her about what he did to teach Ren Zhixian a lesson.
Sang Wan could not help but find it funny too, and sighed softly, “Luckily, Big Brother-in-law referred himself as ‘Master Ren’ which had no link to the Shi family. Otherwise, your method of handling it would have definitely become gossip for others!”
News from large households were always popular. Any small commotion could become a major topic in the entire city.
Shi Fengju smiled coldly, “Even if he were to mention anything to link himself with our family, I would still handle it the same way! Just what is he thinking, since when has our family mistreated him? He remains unappreciative towards everything that we provide, and keeps going back to the vices that have cheated him of his family assets!”
Sang Wan sighed gently and said, “It can’t be helped! I can only say that Big Sister is too pitiful!”
Shi Fengju glanced at her and laughed, “Heh, now this is a little strange. Big Sister had humiliated you so much, and you are angry at her, so why are you pitying her now?”
Sang Wan rolled her eyes and said, “By your words, should I be gloating over her misfortune behind closed doors and have a good laugh? One matter is not connected to another, of course I am mad when Big Sister humiliates me unless I’m made out of wood. But she is a woman too, ai, marrying such a man, really ——”
Sang Wan’s eyes darkened, and she shook her head lightly. The worst fear of a woman is to marry the wrong man, just like herself in her past life. She had the most right to speak. Seeing Shi Yumei’s state today, she could completely relate.
Shi Fengju pulled his woman into his embrace and hugged her tightly. He lowered his head near her neck and said gently, “Don’t think too much; you only have to concentrate on being the Shi family’s Young Mistress. As your husband, I’ll not let you down.”
Sang Wan’s heart melted from his words and she rested her hand over his hands that were around her before leaning back gently. Shi Fengju felt her gentleness and her dependence on him and was pleased. “Sang Wan!” He kissed her by her ear and called out to her.
“Fengju,” Sang Wan said abruptly, “There is something I know I shouldn’t say, so if you think it isn’t right, then forget that I ever said it!”
“Speak, I’m listening.” Shi Fengju was slightly intrigued.
Sang Wan hesitated for a moment, but still resigned herself and spoke softly, “Nobody knows when Big Sister’s worries will end. Wouldn’t it be better to ask her for her opinion to sign a peaceful separation document!”
“What!” Shi Fengju’s body shook and his eyes instantly widened.
“Separation?” Even though he resented Ren Zhixian from head to toe, but there was never once he thought of letting his sister go through a separation. A woman who had gone through a separation, even if she were from a prestigious family, would have a hard life and be despised by others. Basically, she would end up growing old and dying all by herself. Of course, there were a few exceptional cases of such woman remarrying and leading a good life.
Sang Wan secretly regretted shooting her mouth off, but since the words were already out, she could only continue, “You’ve seen how Big Sister is like! It’s better to be single than to have such a husband, at least there will be less things to worry about! Big Sister still hopes that Big Brother-in-law will become an official, but from what I see, it will be better if he doesn’t. Otherwise, with his personality and temper, Big Sister would only end up having a more difficult life! With the Shi family’s background, Big Sister will surely be able to remarry into a good household. If her partner is dependable, even if she has to remarry as a concubine, she would still be better off than now!”
