Chapter 198: Chapter 198 A Flight of Fancy_1 Chapter 198: Chapter 198 A Flight of Fancy_1 Lin Yue had long taken a dislike to Zhao Yunxiang, the woman who had nothing better to do than to find trouble with her after a full al. When dealing with Zhao Yunxiang, Lin Yue certainly wouldn’t hold back. She would inflict pain in any way conceivable. However, Lin Yue tried to avoid hitting Zhao Yunxiang’s face as much as possible because there wasn’t much point; the woman wasn’t much to look at in the first place. Hitting her face would only make her a bit uglier, and wouldn’t serve any real purpose apart from potentially giving her evidence to “sar” Lin Yue’s na. Thus, Lin Yue stuck to her usual fighting style, always targeting the most vulnerable and unseen spots, preferring to wound internally, and, of course, let soone else take the bla.
“Stop, stop fighting!” Several n imdiately stepped in to separate them, one man per fighter. Zhao Erhu hugged Lin Yue, and Lin Genfa held back Zhao Yunxiang. Since Zhao Erhu intervened earlier to protect Lin Yue, he even took a hit from Zhao Yunxiang. The force was so strong that even a big man like Zhao Erhu felt so pain, which was indicative of Zhao Yunxiang’s ruthless intent. It was even worse for a delicate young wife like Lin Yue; Erhu’s heart ached for her. He was furious, yet it was not the ti to settle accounts with Zhao Yunxiang. His priority was his wife’s wellbeing.
“Niuniu, are you okay? Are you hurt anywhere? Let take you back to the room and check you over, alright?” Zhao Erhu said, intending to take Lin Yue to their room to examine her, but Lin Yue was unwilling. She gazed at Zhao Yunxiang, her eyes clearly carrying a hint of provocation, noticeable only to Zhao Yunxiang due to the angle.
“Sister-in-law, are you alright? Don’t get hurt in any serious place. Let Erhu take you back to the room and have a look. Later on, I will have your sister apologize to you.” Lin Genfa, well aware of his wife’s formidable temperant, secured Zhao Yunxiang but imdiately inquired about Lin Yue’s condition. He was scared that his sister-in-law might have been seriously injured by his wife.
Zhao Yunxiang was already irritated by the provocative look from Lin Yue. This woman, who appeared so fragile, had a surprisingly powerful grip; she hadn’t suffered at all in the scrap. The pain in her body ca and went in waves; seemingly fine on the outside, but the internal agony was severe. Moreover, Lin Genfa’s attitude added fuel to the fire. She was his wife, after all, yet he seed more concerned about the Lin Family woman, not even asking if she was injured. It was as if he too had fallen under Lin Yue’s enigmatic spell.
“Lin Family woman, you vixen, you’ve even bewitched my husband into taking your side. I’ll kill you today and rid us of this curse!” Now that Zhao Yunxiang couldn’t physically harm Lin Yue, she resorted to verbal threats.
Lin Yue looked at Zhao Yunxiang, this foolish woman, and the little monster in her heart laughed with sly, sinister joy. Yet, when she raised her eyes to Zhao Erhu, they were filled with sheer rage, portraying the image of a helpless, angry, and wronged young wife to a tee.
“Zhao Erhu, I can’t live like this anymore. Your sister treats like this—didn’t you hear what she said? She’s not leaving any way out. If you take her side again today, I’ll divorce you.”
“Divorce? Wishful thinking! You won’t tarnish my brother’s reputation. You were bought by my brother, and if my brother no longer wants you, he’ll just sell you off, to a place where a thousand n might trample you. Let’s see how you’ll charm n then. Thinking of divorce? You’re taking yourself too seriously. Do you think you’re really Erhu’s wife? At most, you’re just a servant bought by my brother to take care of the children. A re servant dares to be so arrogant with , hmmph!” Zhao Yunxiang, fearful that Zhao Erhu might be taken in by Lin Yue, retorted defiantly.
Although Zhao Yunxiang’s words were malicious, they contained so logic, at least according to the logic of the place. Lin Yue was bought by Zhao Erhu for fifteen taels of silver, which was supposedly a betrothal gift, but in fact, it was the silver for selling oneself. Lin Yue’s deed of sale was given to Zhao Erhu at the ti, clearly stating that Lin Yue henceforth belonged to Zhao Erhu, who could dispose of her as he wished, and she had no further relationship with the Lin Family. Now, nominally, Lin Yue is Zhao Erhu’s wife, but under the law, she indeed could only be considered a servant bought by Zhao Erhu.
“Zhao Erhu, what does this an? Is what she’s saying true?” Lin Yue, of course, would not believe Zhao Yunxiang, nor had she ever seriously considered the matter. Now that Zhao Yunxiang had brought up the issue for the second ti, Lin Yue finally paid attention, turning her gaze toward Zhao Erhu to seek confirmation of the truth in her words. There was a shock in her heart; after all, Zhao Yunxiang’s words last ti weren’t so clear. If she was not Zhao Erhu’s wife under the law, then what were these days all about? Was she deluding herself? She had been thinking about spending her life nicely with Zhao Erhu, but it turned out that at best, she was just a servant.
“Of course, it’s true. Do you think I’m deceiving you? Otherwise, you ask Erhu, see if he didn’t use fifteen taels of silver to buy you. Your parents gave the deed of sale to Erhu back then. You should know about all this, shouldn’t you? Don’t tell you’re pretending to be dumb here on purpose.” Zhao Yunxiang couldn’t wait to crush Lin Yue completely.
At this mont, Zhao Erhu truly beca furious with Zhao Yunxiang. “Zhao Yunxiang, shut your mouth! My ho doesn’t welco you, I don’t need a sister with such malicious thoughts. Get out of my house imdiately!”
“Erhu, how can you do this to ? I’m your real sister. That woman from the Lin Family is just soone you bought, wuu…” Zhao Yunxiang wanted to say more, but her mouth was covered and she was dragged away by Lin Genfa. Lin Genfa also had no face to stay here any longer. His wife really had her head caught in a door; couldn’t she see that her brother’s eyes were red with rage from her antics? If she really broke up his family, would she end up well? Seeing the way Zhao Erhu was, it was clear he cared very much for his little wife.
Seeing Lin Yue’s hurt, vulnerable, and shocked expression, Zhao Erhu felt as if his heart was being shredded into pieces. “Niuniu, it’s not like that, will you please listen to ?” Zhao Erhu said gingerly, afraid to upset Lin Yue further.
Lin Yue was only shocked at first, beginning to doubt herself, but then she cald down. The more chaotic it was, the more she needed to be calm. Recalling the past days, Zhao Erhu had been very good to her, aside from being sowhat guarded. He even did not give up when her life was in danger. If he didn’t truly consider her as his wife, there would be no need for him to do so, especially since her deed was in Zhao Erhu’s possession. According to Zhao Yunxiang, whether to beat or sell her was Zhao Erhu’s decision, unless she found a way to escape.
“What do you want to say? So, the ho I’ve been longing for was just a pipe dream, and these days have been self-delusion. I am just a servant, an outsider. No wonder Zhao Yunxiang targeted so, it turns out there was a reason. Yes, why should there be any good attitude toward a servant!” Lin Yue spoke as if she was pouring her heart out, her face showing a sorrow that was hard for anyone to bear, yet from the corner of her eyes, she was secretly observing Zhao Erhu’s reaction.
