Today, Cheng Sangâs crazy illness suddenly recovered and she returned forcefully, giving everyone an opening gambit.
Even Xie Yunhe was shocked.
Xie Yunhe and Cheng Sang had been married for many years. Although he did not know Cheng Sangâs personality like the back of his hand, he was at least close.
Cheng Sangâs reaction just now⦠was a little too fierce.
âMaster.â
Steward Cui entered with a bowl of ginseng soup. âYouâve been busy with the Cheng familyâs business recently and havenât slept well. Have some ginseng soup to nourish your body.â
Xie Yunhe said nothing.
The Cheng family had two stewards.
Steward Pang was Cheng Lianâs trusted aide.
Steward Cui was Xie Yunheâs trusted aide.
The commotion on Cheng Sangâs side was very big, and it spread throughout the Cheng family.
âIs Old Master thinking about Madam?â Steward Cui asked and placed the ginseng soup beside Xie Yunhe.
Xie Yunhe looked at the ginseng soup and clearly had no appetite.
Steward Cui said, âIf Madam has really recovered, Master doesnât have to worry about anything. Youâve been meticulous to Madam all these years. Other than marrying her sister, thereâs no other fault Madam can find with you. Moreover, marrying Second Madam is for the greater good. We canât let the Cheng family have no descendants.â
Xie Yunhe still had a complicated expression.
Steward Cui continued, âBesides, I think Madam treated you a little differently.â
Xie Yunheâs expression changed slightly.
Steward Cui said, âShe gave Second Madam a big opening gambit today but sheâs only a little angry with you, Master. I think Madam has you in her heart. Sheâs angry that you married someone else and love and hate are intertwined, but as long as this friendship is there, you and Madam will have a chance to reconcile.â
âMaster.â
The maidservant outside the house reported, âMadam is not feeling well.
Please go over.â
âWhich Madam?â Steward Cui asked.
The maidservant also heard that Cheng Sang was awake and reported in a trembling voice, âSecond⦠Second Madam.â
Before today, no one dared to call Cheng Lian by those two words. At most, they would address the sisters as Madam Sang and Cheng Lian.
Xie Yunhe frowned.
No one knew what he was thinking.
Cheng Lian sat in the room and waited. After waiting for a full hour, no one came.
Her heart turned cold.
âMaster!â
The maidservant greeted him in surprise.
The light in her dim eyes gathered. She tidied the silver hairpin in her bun in front of the bronze mirror and stood up to welcome him.
She was only two years younger than Cheng Sang, but because she took good care of herself, she still looked charming.
âHusband.â
She looked pitifully at Xie Yunhe, who had entered the house. Even her eyes were red.
Xie Yunhe looked at the red finger marks on her cheek and sat down with a complicated expression.
Cheng Lian sat beside him and raised her hand to touch her slapped face. She said aggrievedly, âHusband, is Sister angry with me? If I had known earlier, I would have shaved my head and gone to the nunnery to be a nun instead of implicating Sister and Brother-in-law.â
âDoes it still hurt?â Xie Yunhe asked.
Cheng Lian bit her lip to prevent the tears from falling. âItâs fine if I hurt, but I feel terrible when Sister treats me like thatâ¦
Xie Yunhe said earnestly, âShe canât accept it for a moment. Donât blame her.â
Cheng Lianâs eyelashes trembled. âHusband, are you speaking up for Sister? Thatâs true. Sister is your first wife. What am I? I just had a one-night stand with Brother-in-law and was pregnant with your child. Brother-in-law had no choice but to give me a status. Iâll apologize to Sister tomorrow and tell her that everything is my fault and has nothing to do with you.â
Xie Yunhe frowned. âStop fooling around! â
Cheng Lian smiled bitterly. âSister hitting me is what I deserve. If I go and say a few words to Sister, Iâll be fooling aroundâ¦â
Xie Yunhe paused and said, âShe just got better. Donât provoke her.â
Cheng Lian sneered. âIf sheâs crazy, she wonât be able to take the stimulation. If sheâs awake, she wonât be able to take the stimulation⦠Iâll be able to take everything! â
Xie Yunhe frowned even more.
Before he could speak, Cheng Lian changed the topic.
âIâm curious. After Sister went crazy for so many years, no matter how many doctors the Cheng family found and how many methods they thought of, they couldnât make Sisterâs illness improve at all. Why did Sister completely recover as soon as that girl arrived? Was Sister pretending to be crazy all these years, or is there something strange about today?â
Usually, when Cheng Lian was unhappy, Xie Yunhe would rest in her courtyard to comfort her.
Tonight, he left after a while.
Cheng Lian tasted what it was like to be alone in an empty room.
Early in the morning, Xie Yunhe came to Cheng Sangâs courtyard..
