Chapter 18 Catching the Adulterer Personally
"Do you think I would lie to you?" Yu Chi Ling narrowed his eyes, clearly displeased with her question.
Night fell, and I was momentarily speechless.
In his previous life, Wei Yonghuai didn't hesitate to poison Luo Lixian for the sake of her and their child. In this life, not only is the child gone, but Wei Yonghuai is also secretly keeping a mistress behind Luo Lixian's back.
It wasn't that she didn't believe it, but ever since she broke off her engagement and was going to marry the Prince Cheng, it seemed like everything had changed...
But this is fine too. She couldn't be happier that the two of them turned against each other so she could avenge her blood debt from her past life! Now that the opportunity is right in front of her, how could she let it go?
"Your Highness, could you tell my daughter where Wei Yonghuai's two mistresses are kept?" she suddenly asked with a smile, trying to please him.
"What do you want to do?" Yu Chi Ling stared intently at her.
“My daughter and Luo Lixian used to be sisters. Now that she has miscarried and been betrayed by her lover, I feel sorry for her and want to send her a message so that she can catch her in the act.”
"..."
Wei House.
That night, Luo Lixian lost her baby.
When Ge learned of this, she not only did not scold or despise her, but also took meticulous care of her personally, even choosing the best tonics for her, and comforted her, saying that she was still young and would have plenty of opportunities to conceive again in the future.
Although Luo Lixian was heartbroken at losing her child, seeing that Madam Ge did not blame her and instead treated her even more kindly, her grief lessened considerably.
The only thing that bothered her was that Wei Yonghuai hadn't shown up for several days after her miscarriage, and whenever she asked where he was, the answer was always that he had been summoned by the Crown Prince.
That night, she tossed and turned, unable to sleep, when she suddenly heard a strange noise coming from the window.
"Who is it?" She propped her head up and subconsciously looked towards the window.
But the next moment, instead of a human voice, she was answered by a whooshing sound, followed by a violent jolt from the headboard.
Startled, she sat up abruptly, her eyes fixed on the window.
But there was no further movement outside the window, and nothing frightening appeared.
Suppressing her fear, she looked toward the headboard.
She noticed a dart stuck in the headboard, and with the moonlight streaming in from the window, she could see something tied to it.
Feeling uneasy, she hugged the pillow to her chest, then carefully got out of bed and tiptoed towards the window.
After confirming that no one was outside, she ran to the candlestick and lit the candle.
After pulling out the dart, she removed the small note attached to it, opened the note, and what she saw instantly twisted her sickly face in anger.
What a Wei Yonghuai!
He claimed to have been summoned by the Crown Prince, but it turns out he was keeping a mistress outside!
She just had a miscarriage!
And it was because of him that I miscarried!
What they said about her being the only one in his life was all a lie to deceive her!
The more she thought about it, the angrier and more resentful she became. Especially when she thought about Wei Yonghuai's naked entanglement with other women, she felt like the fire in her heart was burning her to death!
So she ripped the clothes off the hanger, dressed herself, and stormed out of the room in a fit of rage.
In a secluded little house in the west of the city.
The man had a beautiful woman on each arm as a pillow. The bed, draped in fragrant gauze, was filled with an atmosphere of debauchery. The man was panting with his eyes closed, seemingly exhausted, but the upward curve of his lips revealed his satisfaction and pleasure.
"Young Master Wei, are my sister and I to your satisfaction?" The beauty on his left drew circles on his heart, as alluring as a fairy.
"Young Master Wei, my sister and I don't want to stay here. Would you please take us home?" The beauty on the right also teased with a charming and seductive tone.
"Okay, okay... I'll take you all back!" Wei Yonghuai agreed with a smile, twisting his neck to kiss each of them.
Just then, the door was pushed open...
No, it was knocked open!
The three of them were terribly startled.
Just as Wei Yonghuai was about to get up and scold whoever dared to trespass on his property, the person who had broken down the door rushed into the house and ripped open the thin gauze curtain beside the couch.
Their eyes met, and he was utterly astonished.
Luo Lixian's beautiful eyes were practically bursting with rage. This lewd scene made her want to gouge out her own eyes. Disgusted, she instantly lost her mind and lunged forward to slap Wei Yonghuai across the face—
'Snapped'!
The noise knocked Wei Yonghuai's head to the side and also provoked the two beauties. They had no shame whatsoever and didn't even try to cover themselves. They pointed at Luo Lixian and angrily shouted, "What are you, daring to trespass into Young Master Wei's elegant room?"
"Who gave you permission to come in and commit violence? You're asking for trouble!"
Luo Lixian ignored them and pointed at Wei Yonghuai, cursing him with a heart-wrenching voice, "You bastard, Wei, you're a real scoundrel! You've deceived me so badly!"
"Have you forgotten what you said? You said you would only ever have me as your woman in this lifetime. Look at what you're doing now, is this the promise you made to me?"
"I treated you with all my heart, and this is how you repay me with such a heartless and ungrateful attitude?"
Being beaten and scolded in front of the beauty, Wei Yonghuai was completely humiliated. He glared at Luo Lixian and growled, "You're being completely unreasonable! Look at this world, which man doesn't have three wives and four concubines? Only a useless man would stay with just one woman! Besides, who are you to tell me what to do?"
Luo Lixian trembled. Her body, already weakened by the miscarriage, seemed to have all its blood drained away at this moment, and her face turned deathly pale.
She never imagined he would betray her...
But the man in front of her not only betrayed her, but also verbally abused and humiliated her!
But there was nothing she could do, because he was right to scold her. Who was she to him? What right did she have to care about him?
To outsiders, she was just an adopted daughter of his parents. She had even been married, lost her husband, and was now a well-known widow!
From the very beginning, she was nothing more than his mistress, lover, and adulterer, someone he couldn't keep in the open!
"Wei Yonghuai, I hate you!" she screamed, her voice filled with anguish, before turning and running away without looking back.
Wei Yonghuai stared at her back, his fists clenching involuntarily.
Thinking that His Highness the Crown Prince was interested in her, he wanted to chase after her and catch her, lest he ruin the Crown Prince's plans. But with two beauties by his side, if he chased after her, he would completely lose face as a man!
So, with a heavy heart, he sat there without moving an inch.
Anyway, Luo Lixian has nowhere to go, so even if she runs away, she will eventually have to go back to the Wei family!
Meanwhile, Luo Lixian, who had run away, stood in the middle of the street, exposed to the night wind. Her mental and physical collapse left her at a loss, and in the end, she could only squat down, hug her knees, and cry loudly.
As she cried, she heard the sound of horses' hooves, and soon a carriage appeared beside her.
She thought she was blocking someone's way, so she got up to move aside.
Suddenly, she heard the coachman speak to her, "Miss Luo, His Highness the Crown Prince requests your presence."
As soon as he finished speaking, the carriage curtain was lifted.
By the moonlight, Luo Lixian could clearly see the man's face, and she was astonished, "Crown...Crown Prince..."
"Come up."
