Unlike Mu JinYu, who felt bitter and unhappy at the beating, Gu MingYue, on the other hand, giggled with joy as soon as she heard news of what her two brothers had done.
He deserved a beating, and it was about time someone gave it to him!
Hence, on the first day, unable to even meet Gu MingYue, the man returned home upset and wounded.
On the second day, when Mu JinYu arrived at the Zhang Residences, a servant brought him a message from the Zhang Family. Basically, they had him know that the daughter of Family Zhang does not lack suitors, and there are many better men queuing up to gain her favor. In conclusion, Mu JinYu should stop thinking about the impossible and get lost.
On the third day, which was the last day of the betting period, Mu JinYu decided that he would break into the mansion by force, even if it would cost him his reputation and pride. He had no choice! It was already the last day, and if he still cared about shallow pride, he would end up losing her once and for all!
The two parties were pushing and shoving each other fiercely, the door opened slowly from the inside. Gu MingYue, who was in a green silk dress embroidered with lotus, walked over the doorframe elegantly and glanced at them.
“Ruo Lan… Ruo Lan……” Mu JinYu noticed the woman of his dreams as soon as she appeared, and instantly tried to move towards her desperately, only to be blocked midway by her two brothers.
“Don’t stand so near to us, our little sister had something to say to you!” Gu MingYue’s eldest brother said coldly.
Mu JinYu felt his blood rushing to his brain at his words. Speaking of distance, due to their past relationship, there was nothing the two of them hadn’t done together before, however, Mu JinYu would never tell that to her brothers, in case they couldn’t control themselves and ended up murdering him right on the spot.
“Sir Mu, please stop causing a scene and go home.” Gu MingYue said in a soft and gentle voice, not a hint of anger or impatience could be heard from her voice, as if whatever he did was of no concern to her.
She was not willing to even hear him out… Mu JinYu felt as if a bucket of wet water was poured over him, sending his heart into a chill. He stubbornly refused to move even an inch, as he stared at the woman in front of him unblinkingly, his expressions looking like an abandoned pet.
Gu MingYue glanced at him expressionlessly, while her cold rage subsided a little. He totally deserves a heartbreak once in a while! She thought before deliberately speaking coldly, “This one’s body had been tainted and impure, hence I have refrained from finding a husband.” She murmured, “Sir Mu is the future consort of the princess, so please return and refrain from causing any more distasteful scenes.”
Never in his life would Mu JinYu had dreamed that he would hear such words from the woman he loved. Her words were sharp and direct, almost like a thunderbolt that landed a direct hit on his heart as she talked about her disgraceful past. His face paled instantly as he knew that she was talking about the periods they spent together.
Such a cruel woman! Though he felt like fainting, Mu JinYu forcefully steadied himself, before turning his back towards the Zhang Family and leaving with a polite smile.
And just as everyone thought that the issue with Mu JinYu was settled, he had intruded on the Zhang Residences once again on that night itself, making his way towards Gu MingYue’s Courtyard as per his memory as a child.
Gu MingYue was almost scared out of her life when she opened her eyes drowsily, just to see a real-life man standing near her bed and staring straight at her. Her lips widened into a scream, only to have it muffled instantly as a huge palm clamped over her mouth.
As she caught the scent of his familiar smell, she finally stopped struggling just to glare at him.
“Hush, do you want your handmaidens to hear?” Mu JinYu whispered softly into her ears, and as if he was afraid that the woman he loved would not cooperate, he didn’t let go of his palm while he explained the incident that happened with Princess XiLiang.
He unclamped his palm only when the tensed body beneath him loosened up, and quickly replaced his huge palm with his lips hungrily.
The past few days had been torture for him, and he missed her dearly, so naturally, he assumed that since the misunderstanding had been cleared up, they would be able to have some fun in this long night, and the fact that this wasn’t taking place at his own residences actually enhances the experience.
However, Gu MingYue had other thoughts about this! Who does he think is?! Was it ever a rule that once he explained himself, she must forgive him?
She thought of the half-naked Princess XiLiang and the obscene scenes from before, and her anger rose once again.
This man had to wait until other women got so close to him before he tried to resist… She was certain that if it wasn’t for the fact that he was slightly concerned about her reactions to it, he would definitely have enjoyed her services.
Besides, it was obvious that he did not feel like it was a big deal to be seen or touched by another person, and that things would be perfectly fine and she would understand him after he explained himself… She could already see it happening again in the future!
Does he see her as a clay figurine that will knead at will? But even a clay figurine would have a sense of earth within!1
Gu MingYue had been together with him for more than a year, and she understood his nature clearly, hence she refused to give in and continued struggling from his grasp.
“What are you doing?” Mu JinYu asked sullenly, unable to understand her actions.
His words sent her into a rage, and she responded with a cold chuckle, “Sir, what are you doing?”
However, the man seemed to have lost his patience on this and his accumulated anger and lust from the last few days rose sky-high. He had explained himself so clearly but she still insisted that he had wronged!
He wanted to teach his woman a lesson, hence he pulled and spread apart her legs, intending to force himself upon her.
Gu MingYue could not break free from the man, and her tears began to stream down her face. A dull feeling rose from her chest, and suddenly she felt nauseous as her breath got caught within her.
“Ugh!” She pushed him away and began retching by the bedside.
He glared at her actions furiously, to think that she would feel disgusted by their intimacy!
He sat by the bedside gloomily as he sulked, but after a while, he began to notice that something didn’t seem quite right. She had been retching for quite a long while, but nothing was coming out from within her.
His anger was long gone and worried that she had fallen ill, he quickly clamped his fingers over her wrist to check, only to suck in a breath of surprise!
This wasn’t an illness, and she was merely pregnant! It seemed like the baby was a month old, meaning that she had successfully conceived during their sleepless nights at the Duke’s residences.
This woman, how dare she bore his child and still refused to marry him! But no matter what, there was no way he could punish her now, and even if he could do so, he wouldn’t bear to do it. All he wanted to do right now was to hug her tight and share the joy.
Gu MingYue understood instantly from his expressions of joy that she was pregnant, however, she was still somewhat angry, and refused to even spare him a glance.
At this point, even if she gave him a tight slap, he would endure it happily. He ignored her retaliation as he brought her in for a hug, “Rumors had it that every drop of cum consists of ten drops of blood. I have given you so much of my blood, how could you be so fickle.”
She glared at the shameless man in front of her, before continuing hatefully, “Go away, I do not wish to see you! Leave!”
“No, no, I’ll never leave your side!” He said tenderly before landing a pecking kiss on her forehead.
“Then, in the future…” She started uneasily.
He finally understood what was holding her back. This woman was just purely a jealous lady, to think that he had not noticed it before… Her intentions were very clear, if there was any hint of another woman in his life, he would lose Gu MingYue. And if he chose her, then he would lose all the fun with other women.
She was forcing him to make a choice and confess.
It took him merely half a second to decide, and he quickly responded tenderly, “I, Mu JinYu, swear that you will be the only woman for me, and I will treat you with love and respect for the rest of my life. There will never be another woman, and I swear this upon my descendants…” He paused and glanced at her uncertainly, “What do you think?”
A month later, Lord Zhang married off his precious daughter, with a hundred and twenty boxes of dowry, and it was rumored that her trail of dowry was easily more than ten meters long as they paraded through the city.
Gu MingYue waited patiently for her husband to arrive within the newly weds’ room when the system sounded within her head.
