MTL - After Giving Way To My Husband’s Sweetheart-Chapter 84 We owe nothing to each other
When Love opened her eyes, she saw everything familiar in Wangchun Hall.
It seems that Sima Chao was concerned about his friendship after all, and was not ruthless enough to kill her.
Yu Nuan was guarding her. When she saw her waking up, the little girl burst into tears with joy: "Madam, you finally woke up. You have been sleeping for two days, which scared the slave girl."
Love struggled to sit up, and Yunuan quickly took the soft pillow and leaned under her: "Madam is weak, so be careful."
"Where is he?" Love looked around the room, frowned and asked, "Where is the eldest son? Where is he?"
Perhaps she was too frightened that day in the Zhaoji dungeon and got angry. When she spoke now, her voice was still hoarse.
Yunuan hesitated and said: "The night before, the eldest son brought you back and asked the slaves to take good care of you. He has not been here since."
"Madam, does the eldest young master know what we have done?" Yu Nuan looked at Love and asked tentatively, with a look of fear in her eyes.
When Love heard this, she was startled and asked hurriedly: "Where is Lantian? Has she been taken away by the eldest son?"
That day in the dungeon, Sima Chao had already figured out the whole story. Sima Chao showed mercy and let her go, but he might not let her co-conspirator Lan Tian go.
After all, it was Lan Tian who administered the poison.
Even if Sima Chao puts the blame on Lan Tian, he can still clear himself of the suspicion.
Yu Nuan saw Love's worry, and she hurriedly advised: "Madam, don't be anxious, Lantian has gone to get food."
“The eldest son has not made things difficult for us.”
Just as she was talking, Lan Tian walked in with food. Seeing that Love had woken up, she happily stepped forward and said with a smile: "Madam, you're finally awake. It's great."
Sima Chao let her go, and there was no one who could make things difficult for her.
Love smiled reluctantly and murmured: "We're all fine, that's fine."
Lan Tian put down his food, sat down in front of Love, lowered his eyes and sighed: "Madam, I just heard from Yingfeng that the eldest son submitted his resignation to the saint yesterday, and the saint approved it this morning."
As he said that, Lan Tian glanced at Love's face and murmured to himself: "Although we killed Guo Xiaotian to avenge the master and his wife, in the end we have affected the eldest son."
Lan Tian is a straight-tempered person. In the past, Sima Chao once wanted to punish Lan Tian because he was angry with Love. Although Lan Tian held a grudge, he was still a kind-hearted person.
In this regard, the master and the servant are very similar.
After Love heard this, she was silent for a long time and then asked, "Where is he?"
Lantian replied: "I'm in the study. I heard from Yingfeng that the eldest son has not left the study since he submitted his resignation to the saint yesterday."
Yu Nuan on the side heard the words and said calmly: "Young Master, he can't think about it, right?"
Lan Tian glanced at Yu Nuan and replied: "Who do you think the eldest son is, and you can't think about it just because of this?"
“He’s just sad.”
As he spoke, the two little girls sighed involuntarily.
“Give me some clothes and I’ll go see him.” Love said.
The two little girls agreed and quickly served Love to pack up. Lan Tian said directly: "Madam, we really can't live up to the eldest son this time, and it has caused him to lose his official position. The commander of the imperial army has such a big official position. It's not easy to get it. It's normal for the eldest son to be angry with you. When you see him later, you can give him a few words of advice." It was true that she couldn't help him. Love felt guilty, but she didn't say it. speech.
After she had packed up and was about to go out, she looked up and saw Sima Chao walking in casually.
When Lantian Yunuan saw Sima Chao, the two girls were stunned, and then they both looked at Love. Love motioned for them to go down. When she and Sima Chao were the only ones left in the room, she wanted to say: " I heard that you lost your official position because of this?"
He was obsessed with his career, and she made him lose his official position out of revenge. In this matter, Love felt guilty towards him.
Sima Chao raised his eyes and glanced at Love, and sneered: "It's really rare that you can still care about this."
His tone was light, but anyone with ears could tell that he was very dissatisfied with her.
Seeing that Love was silent, Sima Chao sat down on the chair and murmured: "You don't even care about my life, why do you care about my future?"
“Hmph! Now that your great revenge has been avenged, you should feel happy.”
“What does my life and death have to do with you?”
“You cruel woman!”
He sat there, grumbling to himself, venting his dissatisfaction with her.
Love let her finish before she spoke and said to him, "I'm sorry!"
Sima Chao raised his eyes and glanced at her. His thin lips moved slightly. Although there was still anger on his face, he did not say any more hurtful words. He only asked: "What did you say about 'child' in prison that day?" What happened?"
As he spoke, he subconsciously looked at her belly, frowned and asked, "Are you pregnant?"
As soon as the words came out of his mouth, he realized his stupidity. They didn't even have a house, so how could they have children.
Thinking about her unwillingness to commit to him for so long, the anger he had suppressed couldn't help but surge up again.
It irritated him even more than her assassinating Guo Xiaotian without caring about him at all.
Love followed his gaze and looked at her belly. She smiled bitterly and replied: "Where did the child come from?"
As she said that, she looked at Sima Chao and said slowly: "I once had a dream that we had a child, but in order to marry Shuangchi, you actually killed him cruelly. No matter how I begged you, you wouldn't Be willing to be soft-hearted.”
As soon as Love finished speaking, Sima Chao slapped the table fiercely and said angrily: "This is simply nonsense!"
As he said that, he stood up angrily, walked to Love in a few steps, frowned and asked: "You come to blame me just because of a ridiculous dream, you do something so careless about me, do you think I will?" Do I forgive you so easily?"
Love looked at him and replied calmly: "That is a dream, but it is not nonsense. Let me ask you, if we really have a child, you will marry Shuangchi for the sake of your future. Here, the child and Shuangchi will marry each other." Before the pool, or in other words, between the child and your future, how would you choose?"
Sima Chao looked at Love, he frowned tightly and asked: "Then let me ask you, when you were bent on avenging your family, when you sprinkled the poison on the ice, could you Have you ever cared about me? I was sitting next to Guo Xiaotian, and you never thought that I might also be poisoned? "
“You woman, have you ever cared about my life or death?”
"In other words, as long as you can get revenge, you don't care about my life or death at all. Haha, in your heart, I, Sima Chao, is just a tool for you to use for revenge. Am I right?"
Love didn't answer his question. She turned her head and said, "Just let me go. As of now, we don't owe each other anything."
