Poisonous Pet World: The War King's Heart-stealing Medical Concubine

When Chen Run heard this, his expression suddenly changed. His originally relaxed brows instantly furrowed tightly, forming a deep ravine. A trace of astonishment and a blazing fire of anger flashed in his eyes.

"What? How could such a thing happen?" Chen Run widened his eyes, his face full of disbelief, as if he could not believe what he heard at all.

Yun Mengsi stretched out her slender finger and pointed at the ground. Everyone looked in the direction of her finger and saw a maid in plain clothes kneeling there trembling all over. The maid's face was as pale as a piece of white paper, without any blood at all.

"It's her. She said that all this was instigated by the maidservant beside my cousin." Yun Mengsi's tone became extremely firm, as if she wanted to vent all the anger that had been suppressed in her heart for a long time.

Chen Run's face turned a little ugly when he heard this. He was silent for a moment, then he slowly spoke: "Meng Si, I'm sorry for not fulfilling my original promise, but you shouldn't be unreasonable. Nian Nian is a kind person and would never do such a thing." There was a bit of fatigue and helplessness in his voice.

Yun Mengsi felt a surge of blood rushing to her head when she heard that. She staggered back a few steps and almost fell to the ground. Chu Zixi, who was standing beside her, quickly supported her and said, "Cousin."

Yun Mengsi shook her head. “Am I being unreasonable? Xiaoyue is only a few months old. Did you know that Xiaoyue was poisoned and almost died?” There was a hint of hysteria in her voice, as if she wanted to vent all her grievances and anger.

Chen Run's gaze slowly moved to Xiaoyue who was held in Xiaoling's arms. He saw the child lying quietly in Xiaoling's warm arms, her face as rosy as the first blooming peach blossoms in spring, and her pair of big black eyes looked around curiously, as if full of desire to explore this new world.

Chen Run stared at this scene, his dissatisfaction surging in his heart like a tide. He turned to look at Yun Mengsi, his tone mixed with a bit of blame and deep disappointment: "I have always believed that you are completely different from those other spoiled ladies. You have always been generous, tolerant and considerate. But now it seems that I was wrong. It turns out that you are just like those women in the backyard who are scheming and scheming against each other, and who do whatever it takes to win favor. You can even curse your own daughter!"

These words were like a bolt from the blue, striking Yun Mengsi's heart directly.

In an instant, she felt a biting chill rising rapidly from the soles of her feet and rushing all the way to the top of her head. She felt as if she had fallen into an ice cellar, and her heart instantly turned cold to freezing point.

"You...you actually think of me like this?" Yun Mengsi widened her eyes in disbelief. Her eye sockets gradually turned red and tears welled up in them. Her voice trembled with extreme shock and sadness.

However, facing Yun Mengsi's questioning, Chen Run seemed to have not heard it, and just continued to speak to himself: "Mengsi, I sincerely hope that you can live in peace with Nian Nian and stop making trouble. You should calm down and reflect on yourself for a few days."

Before he finished speaking, he resolutely flicked his sleeves, turned around and left without looking back, leaving Yun Mengsi standing there in a daze, looking at his receding back, her heart aching.

Seeing this, Chu Zixi, who was standing by, was extremely anxious. She hurriedly stepped forward to stop Chen Run, confront him, and defend Yun Mengsi. But just as she was about to act, Yun Mengsi grabbed her arm tightly.

Chu Zixi turned around in confusion, staring at Yun Mengsi in bewilderment, and asked anxiously, "Cousin, why did you just let your brother-in-law misunderstand you? Why don't you explain things clearly?"

Yun Mengsi's beautiful eyes were filled with crystal tears, and those tears seemed like they would fall at any time. She said sadly: "His heart has changed. No matter what I say, it will be in vain. I really didn't expect that the love that I once looked forward to and thought was so beautiful would be so short-lived. And now in his eyes, I am no different from those women in the backyard who are jealous of each other and do whatever it takes to win his favor. Haha..." At this point, Yun Mengsi couldn't help but sneer, and her laughter was full of self-mockery and sadness.

Chu Zixi snorted coldly upon hearing this, and said indignantly: "Cousin, you are born in the dignified Duke of the Guardian's Mansion! How can you tolerate a small Chen Mansion bullying you like this?"

Xiao Wen, who was standing at the side, couldn't help but interrupt and said, "Cousin, our young lady has never allowed me to go to the Duke of Huguo's Mansion to report to the Madam and the Master about the young lady's situation in the Chen Mansion."

Yun Mengsi suddenly turned around and glared at Xiao Wen, shouting, "Xiao Wen, shut up!"

Xiaowen was so scared that he quickly lowered his head, but in his heart he still felt extremely aggrieved for his young lady.

Chu Zixi was surprised when she heard Xiaowen's words. She asked, "Cousin, could it be that my aunt and the others still don't know about Chen Run taking a concubine? That's right, if my aunt and the others knew about this, how could my uncle allow Chen Run to take a concubine?"

Yun Mengsi gently wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes and said firmly: "Xi'er, please don't tell my mother and others about my affairs. I don't want them to worry about me. Besides, my husband has promised me that he will never take a concubine from now on. This time taking a concubine is purely unexpected."

However, even though she said she believed in her husband, Yun Mengsi still felt a dull pain deep in her heart, and she felt confused about the future direction of this relationship.
