Chapter 489 - Having gotten this chubby girl as his wife, what more could he want? (2)

Ning Yuxuan chuckled. Seeing his good friend's dazed look and how he was unable to return to his senses, he took delight in his misfortune. Wrapping his arm around Ji Man's waist, he started walking back inside. ”Don't bother with him. Go back inside with me to eat. You drank so much before and didn't have time to eat.”

”Okay.” Ji Man nodded. The two of the mercilessly left Qian Yingchen to stand here by himself.

As he carefully thought about that incident and the small details, Qian Yingchen clenched his jaw. There were so many suspicious points. He just hadn't wanted to think about them. When he woke up, he had been in Zhu Yurun's room. If she had come onto him, then he should have woken up in his own room.

Also, why use a hallucinogenic drug? That wasn't a suitable drug if she wanted to copulate with him. If she wanted to force him, shouldn't she have used an aphrodisiac drug?

Suddenly, his mind was thrown into a state of chaos. Qian Yingchen didn't even go back for his cloak. He directly left the restaurant, mounted his horse, and rushed back to his estate.

As usual, Zhu Yurun had gone to sleep early and hadn't left a lamp lit for him. Because Qian Yingchen ran all the way from the estate's entrance to her courtyard, he was panting when he unraveled her from her coc.o.o.n quilt. ”I have something I want to ask you.”

Blurry from sleep, Zhu Yurun half-opened her eyes to look at him. ”Ah?”

”Back in Xu Province's inn, what happened for real? Did you force me, or was I drugged and forced you?” Qian Yingchen felt a bit embarra.s.sed about asking this question, but he still kept his gaze on her, so he wouldn't miss the slightest change in her expression.

Zhu Yurun was at a loss for a while before she finally said, ”You woke me up in the middle of the night just to ask this question? It's not important anymore, right? We're already married.”

After saying this, she fell back onto the bed and continued sleeping.

This was something that greatly bothered him, but she acted like it was no big deal? Qian Yingchen felt somewhat angry.

A hesitant voice came from the door. ”Sir Qian, this thing you want to know about. This servant knows everything. There's no need for you to disturb my master's sleep.”

Startled, Qian Yingchen turned his head and saw that it was Zhuer.

After he followed her out, Zhuer closed the doors and looked at him with a serious expression. ”Sir Qian, why did you suddenly think to ask about what happened back then?”

Qian Yingchen had a similarly solemn expression as her. How could he possibly say that he had suddenly found out about part of the truth, and he felt guilt?

Zhuer didn't continue questioning him. She didn't like her Miss's husband, but for the sake of her Miss, she still retold the entire story.

”What left this servant feeling the most bitterly disappointing wasn't that outsiders misunderstood Miss and would throw eggs at her when she went out and curse at her when they saw her,” Zhuer said with reddened eyes, ”It was you, Sir Qian. You thought that my Miss was that type of woman and even looked down on her. You made her lose her first child.”

Qian Yingchen was greatly shocked. For a moment, it felt as if he couldn't breath.

He used to insult her too. He was the same as the commoners outside, who didn't know anything. He had thought she was unbearably sordid and scandalous. But, as it turned out, everything was his fault.

”Why didn't you tell me earlier?” Qian Yingchen heard his voice; it was unexpectedly hoa.r.s.e.

Zhuer turned her head away. ”In the past, this servant didn't have an opportunity. Now, it's because Miss says there's no need.”

But, seeing his pained expression, Zhuer felt that she hadn't done anything wrong. She should have stabbed him with the truth earlier. Otherwise, he would never know that he should treasure her master.
