Han Yu thought that made sense. These little ladies who had been spoiled at dwelling had no thought how robust the world could possibly be and doubtless had no real interest in mundane issues like firewood, rice, oil, and salt. With an excessive amount of idle time, they entertained wild fantasies and, within the firm of frivolous folks, they’d develop such preposterous and impractical concepts—it was a case of being led astray.
Su Wenyue was conscious of 1 factor that troubled Han Yu deeply: he thought she was the kind of girl who despised poverty and adored wealth, regarded down on him, and believed she was shallow, ignorant, and smug.
With a purpose to change the picture Han Yu had of her and forestall such ideas from taking root and changing into ingrained, Su Wenyue most well-liked to behave a bit extra naive in entrance of him. Furthermore, a person of Han Yu’s intelligence and adeptness at technique, who wielded energy and schemes, possible didn’t need a girl simply as intelligent and calculating by his aspect. As an alternative, he would favor the harmless and adorably naive sort—simpler to deceive, requiring little effort to deal with, bringing a way of ease, not even needing to be cautious of 1’s personal partner.
In fact, even when she performed the naive card, there was a restrict to it. She needed to make Han Yu see she was solely naive and unsophisticated as a result of she was coddled by her mother and father and saved sheltered, not as a result of she was ignorant or superficial. Solely then would she seem endearing—overdoing it will have a wholly completely different impact.
The Su Wenyue of the earlier life, regardless of being extremely naive and harmless, was not in the slightest degree lovely. She was willful and capricious, and with Han Yu’s coronary heart full of grudges towards her, she was shunned.
“Nonetheless dreaming, huh? You’re married now whether or not you wished it or not. You at the moment are formally my spouse, the one I, Han Yu, married by correct channels. Any further, cease entertaining these absurd ideas. On this period, isn’t each girl married in response to her mother and father’ preparations and the matchmaker’s phrases? They usually nonetheless need to select their very own males? Solely flighty girls would have interaction in such shameless acts. I guess it’s your cousin who’s been filling your head with such nonsense. Steer clear of her any further.” Regardless that Han Yu knew his spouse didn’t have her eye on anybody else and was merely daydreaming, he nonetheless felt a tinge of jealousy and issued his domineering command.
“However…” Su Wenyue appeared considerably reluctant.
“There aren’t any ‘buts.’ What do you suppose a married girl can do anyway? Overlook about different males; even when there have been emotions, they might solely be for one’s husband.” Han Yu stopped wanting saying explicitly, Simply liking me is sufficient.
“Who mentioned that? Haven’t you heard of the time period ‘a lady climbing over the wall’?” Su Wenyue, maybe reminded of her previous life, blurted out the comment on impulse, uncertain whether or not it was a check for Han Yu or to verify one thing.
Han Yu, absolutely conscious that Su Wenyue was talking off the cuff, nonetheless turned pale with anger: “Su Wenyue, you dare! In case you even consider such a factor, simply wait and see how I’ll cope with you. That is outrageous! If that day ever comes, I’ll break your legs and lock you up in a room for all times.”
Feeling the chilling menace in Han Yu’s phrases and recalling the more and more ruthless ways of Lord Han in a while, Su Wenyue shivered uncontrollably and replied in a defeated tone, “I, in fact, wouldn’t dare. It’s simply that…”
“Simply what?”
“It’s simply, I used to be solely making a hypothetical level. What if I didn’t entertain such ideas and others got here to tempt me? You understand how lovely I’m; definitely, these with ulterior motives will goal me. Then, you’ll be able to’t blame me.”
Su Wenyue was decided to not fall for that man’s seduction on this life, and even to see the person who had triggered her ache for many of her earlier lifetime. Nevertheless, some issues had been past her management, very like her preliminary encounter with that man.
Trying again, these so-called probability conferences had all been orchestrated by him—how else might they’ve been so coincidental? She had by no means met him earlier than that, so how had he fastened his sights on her? Provided that man’s flirtatious nature and fondness for seduction, even when she tried to keep away from him, it was possible he would nonetheless provoke contact along with her and result in misunderstandings. Su Wenyue was making ready Han Yu upfront, simply in case.
Han Yu didn’t know what to say. What on earth was this lady considering? It should be that she’d been studying too many storybooks and thought she was appearing in a play. With out holding again, he flicked her on the brow.
“Ha, Su Wenyue, you actually suppose too extremely of your self. You may be slightly prettier than the village ladies, however you’re removed from evaluating to these younger women from noble households within the metropolis. You really consider you’re a peerless magnificence able to toppling nations, making males dream about you,” Han Yu insulted Su Wenyue whereas dripping with sarcasm, though deep down he knew what she mentioned may not be completely imaginations with out foundation. Out of the blue, he felt {that a} girl’s magnificence was a problem.
Su Wenyue, assured in her personal magnificence, was under no circumstances fazed by the put-down. She was nonetheless rising, in any case. In a number of years, she would grow to be much more lovely than she was now. In any other case, why would that man be captivated by her magnificence prior to now, going towards his rules simply to pursue a married girl? However it appeared Han Yu was a person who cared little for girls, in any other case, dealing with a lady like her, how might he stay unmoved and communicate such phrases?
Though Su Wenyue believed in her magnificence, she was reasonably aggravated by Han Yu’s dismissive perspective. Realizing full effectively his temperament, she couldn’t assist however provoke him, “I is probably not a peerless magnificence able to toppling nations, however throughout the entire Xinye County, there aren’t many as fairly as me. It’s simply that you simply fail to understand it. If I actually had been to elope, you’d be the one regretting it!”
In her previous life, that was exactly what she had executed. Though a lot of the fault lay along with her, Han Yu was not with out blame. She had been dazzled by wealth and sweet-talked by that man, pushed by a need to retaliate towards Han Yu. The second she left the Han Household, she had even felt a vengeful satisfaction, her solely guilt being for her son, who was not but three years previous.
Han Yu initially thought Su Wenyue was simply being playful, however as she went on with out a clue, he darkened. He knew solely too effectively what his spouse regarded like. The day he unveiled her marriage ceremony cowl, he had certainly been startled by Su Wenyue’s magnificence, however the second was short-lived, shortly quenched by her disdain and presumptuous phrases.
“Simply keep at dwelling correctly and don’t trigger me any troubles. As for the surface world, if anybody dares to make a transfer on you, I’ll definitely handle it! However should you dare to climb over the wall, are you able to think about the results? Ought to I cling you up and beat you, or ought to I hand you over to the Village Chief to be drowned in a pond, or possibly ship you to the Authorities to be handled in response to the legal guidelines of the Daming Dynasty?”
