Hiding her pregnancy and divorce, she stopped licking and the general panicked

Lu Ziqian looked at her coldly, and waited until she had vented enough before speaking: "Are you crazy enough?"

I was suddenly stared at by her beautiful eyes. What a pair of eyes filled with anger and hatred, cold as ice and captivating.

Lu Ziqian suddenly realized that the look she gave him was no longer one of love, but hatred?

He was always in the wrong about abandoning her, so he stopped arguing with her and instead forcibly pulled her into his arms.

"Come and apply the medicine."

"Go away, don't touch me."

"Don't move, or I'll strip you naked and tie you to the bed."

As he spoke, the man actually untied his belt and wrapped it around the woman's slender wrist. This reminded her of the things that happened in bed. Sometimes when he was in the mood, he would do this...

Su Yujiao bit her lip, swallowed all the grievances, and dared not move again. She knew that this cold-hearted, mean and ungrateful man was capable of anything.

Lu Ziqian breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that she had finally calmed down.

He had never coaxed a woman before, and now it seemed more tiring than fighting a war.

The man took off her clothes, revealing her snow-white back, but the criss-crossing red marks looked mottled and glaring.

Although he cheated when whipping her and didn't leave any wounds on her back, her skin was so delicate that just the slightest touch left such obvious marks.

Lu Ziqian frowned, picked up some ointment and gently applied it on her back.

Su Yujiao lay on the bed, her body trembling slightly. She turned her face away, bit her lips tightly, and tears filled her eyelashes.

From Lu Ziqian's perspective, she looked even more charming, beautiful and pitiful.

The light flickered, swaying constantly, and the wick made a subtle and crisp sound, which seemed not to cause a single ripple.

The two of them were silent, no one spoke!

After Lu Ziqian applied the medicine, he saw that she had closed her eyes. He said nothing and left quietly.

Outside the door, Mo Shu and Xiao Tao were both there.

Xiaotao wanted to go in, but was kept stopped by Mo Shu.

"Come in, she's asleep."

Xiao Tao gave him a resentful look before pushing the door open.

Mo Shu suddenly said, "Master, let me bandage you."

Xiao Tao looked back and saw that Lu Ziqian's palm was red and seemed to be still dripping with blood.

Could it be that what Mo Shu said is true?

Xiao Tao walked to the bedside and took a look at Su Yujiao's back. Sure enough, there were no wounds, only red marks.

Su Yujiao opened her eyes and saw Xiaotao. Her nose felt sore and her eyes turned red again.

"Miss, does it still hurt?"

"It's all my fault. If I hadn't taken the initiative to go find Master Gu, there wouldn't be those rumors..."

Xiaotao also started crying, kneeling on the ground and hitting herself in self-blame.

Su Yujiao grabbed her hand and said, "Don't hit Silly Xiaotao. It's not your fault."

"Those people deliberately targeted me, and I couldn't hide from them."

Xiao Tao looked at Su Yujiao's sad face and comforted her: "Don't be sad, Miss. The general has you in his heart."

"You misunderstood the general. It was that slave Mo Hua who acted on her own."

"The general has punished Mo Hua by giving her a hundred lashes and making her kneel in the main courtyard."

"The general said that she is not allowed to get up without your order. Let her put herself in her proper place and know who is the master and who is the slave."

"Mo Hua is very concerned about her reputation. She used to think she was superior because she was the general's personal bodyguard."

"Now she's being punished to kneel in the main courtyard where people come and go, and be pointed at and criticized. This is more painful than killing her."

Su Yujiao smiled bitterly: "Xiao Tao, why are you speaking for him today?"

Xiao Tao's face changed. She didn't want to say anything good about Lu Ziqian, but she knew that the young lady loved him deeply.

She said that, which made the young lady feel better.

The young lady keeps saying that she wants a divorce, but how can a woman dare to really divorce a man?

How can a woman live after divorce?

She didn't want to see the young lady get into an irreparable situation, so she could only say nice things to cheer her up.

Besides, the injury on Lu Ziqian’s hand was real. No matter what his motivation was, he did protect the young lady.

"My lady, I saw the wound on the general's hand."

"Well, I bit him, he deserved it."

Xiao Tao shook her head: "It's not the wound on the shoulder, it's the wound on the palm of the hand, a very long and deep wound."

Su Yujiao frowned. She didn’t understand what Xiaotao meant. Why did Lu Ziqian have a wound on the palm of his hand?

"Mo Shu said that the general couldn't bear to see you punished, but he couldn't help but give an explanation to the clan, so he had to put on a show for them."

"He beat you personally because he was afraid that Mrs. Chen would take revenge on you and harm you."

"General, I can control the force with my inner strength and won't actually hurt you, but if I don't see some blood, it would seem too fake."

"So the general took advantage of Mo Shu handing him the whip and used the dagger to cut his palm under Mo Shu's protection."

"The blood will flow down the whip and hit you. What looks bloody is actually the general's blood..."

"I think that the general is protecting you with such good intentions, he must have feelings for you."

"If the general is truly heartless, he wouldn't care about your life or death."

Su Yujiao was stunned when she heard Xiaotao's words. She was not injured?

She touched her back with her backhand and felt only the smooth, cool ointment, as if there was really no wound.

Soon, she laughed at herself again. How could he have any feelings for her? He did this simply because he felt guilty, and doing this would make him feel better.

Since you have decided to divorce, stop overthinking and wavering.

When she feels better, she will take Xiaotao away.

As for the divorce papers, he would give them to her. After all, after the divorce, he could marry Chen Yunniang openly.

In the study, Lu Ziqian suddenly thought of something.

"Mo Shu, go to Jingzhao Yin and make sure you take the credit for suppressing the bandits."

"Don't let anyone spread the news that it was Su Yujiao who knocked them out, giving Jingzhao Yin the opportunity to capture them all in one fell swoop."

Mo Shu was stunned for a moment. The general never liked to take credit for others' achievements, so why did he want to take credit from the young lady today?

"Go quickly."

"Yes."

It was not until he left the general's mansion that Mo Shu figured out the reason.

No matter who gets the credit for suppressing the bandits this time, it cannot be the young lady's. Otherwise, everyone will know that the young lady has fallen into the bandits' den, and the rumors will then force the young lady to death.

The master seems to be trying to take credit, but in fact he is doing it to protect the young lady.

As soon as Mo Shu left, the butler came in bowing and said with an embarrassed look on his face: "General, the old lady asked... asked you to hand over Mo Shu, and also said..."

"What else can you say?"

"He also said he would chop up the ink book and feed it to the dogs."

Lu Ziqian raised the corner of his lips and asked, "Why is the old lady looking for trouble with Mo Shu?"

"How did Mo Shu offend the old lady?"

"this?"

The housekeeper listened to Lu Ziqian's serious questioning. The CPU was almost burned out. What did the general mean?
