It's over! After eloping, I was caught by my cold husband and taken back to his room

Lin Wannian took a step back slightly.

Looking at the tea splashed on her skirt, she frowned a little unhappily.

When he looked at Lin Xiuwen, a hint of disgust quickly flashed in his eyes.

But soon, Lin Wannian controlled her expression.

She stood there, looking at Lin Xiuwen: "Fourth brother, what's going on? Why are you so angry?"

Seeing Lin Wannian coming, Lin Xiuwen was not in a good mood at the moment: "I was broken off from the engagement, didn't you know?"

Looking at the things he had dropped all over the floor, Lin Wannian elegantly gathered her hair, feeling inexplicably relieved.

I wish she wasn't the only one suffering.

It seems that Lin Xiuwen's situation is worse than hers.

"Isn't it just a broken engagement? What are you afraid of, Fourth Brother? Once you pass the imperial examination, you will have plenty of opportunities to find a better marriage in the future." Lin Wannian said.

Lin Xiuwen glanced at her coldly, his words filled with impatience and disgust: "My reputation is ruined! Didn't you hear what the servants said?"

"The token of appreciation I sent as a return gift contained something unclean... Now people think I'm undisciplined and uncultured..."

"If this gets out, how can I find a good marriage?"

Even if he passes the exam, it will still be a stain on him in the future!

What's more, with his qualifications, others may not know, but he himself knows it very well!

How could it be so easy to pass the imperial examination?

Especially now, that stupid woman Ye Nanyue is no longer there to help him!

The most important thing is the canceled marriage...that was the girl he had been fond of for a long time.

He thought, he thought it would work this time.

"Fourth brother, you've been framed." Lin Wannian looked at Lin Xiuwen in surprise, as if she had just heard it.

This time, she changed her strategy.

Instead of directly persuading Lin Xiuwen, he looked at him in great surprise.

Lin Xiuwen's expression became even uglier: "I know, someone is trying to harm me."

"Fourth brother, have you ever thought about who hurt you?"

Lin Wannian frowned and looked at Lin Xiuwen, "The people around you are relatively clean. The old woman who came to deliver the message and the servant who asked for the horoscope were all arranged by my father himself."

"Others can't intervene even if they want to. The problem...can only occur with you."

Lin Xiuwen's expression became even uglier.

Lin Wannian pretended to be thinking.

After a moment of silence, he seemed to remember something and said to Lin Xiuwen, "Fourth brother, I remember now."

"Didn't Ye Nanyue and her son come here on the day the token was returned?"

After Lin Wannian said this, Lin Xiuwen seemed to remember something. He turned around and looked at Lin Wannian in surprise: "Yeah...why didn't I think of it?"

"On that day, no one else was here except that little bastard! He must have done it! It must have been him."

When Lin Xiuwen thought of Ping An's expression at that time, he felt even more certain.

That little bastard is just as annoying as his father Lu Huaiyang.

Lin Xiuwen quickly echoed, "That's the little bastard. It's just... he's so young, how could he have those things? How could he have such a big idea?"

Lin Xiuwen was reminded by Wannian and frowned as if he remembered something. "You mean..."

"Someone must have taught him that!"

Lin Wannian said to Lin Xiuwen, "Fourth brother, you've been deliberately framed by someone with ulterior motives. What a pity... What a pity for such a good marriage of yours."

The more Lin Xiuwen listened, the uglier his expression became.

Whether the marriage is good or not is secondary, the important thing is... her.

How should she think of him at this moment?

"Fourth brother, we can't just let this go."

Seeing Lin Xiuwen lost in thought, Lin Wannian immediately added fuel to the fire, "Fourth brother, think about it. How old is that little bastard? Where did he get that thing? Who helped him come up with this idea?"

"Someone must have taught him to do this and prepared something for him!"

The more Lin Xiuwen listened, the more he felt that what Lin Wannian said made some sense.

Lin Xiuwen nodded immediately and said to Lin Wannian, "Wannian, you're right. Why didn't I think of that?"

"You mean... Ye Nanyan taught that little bastard to do this?"

"It's most likely her. I think maybe Madam Ye saw through your thoughts that day, Fourth Brother, and was on guard."

Lin Wannian looked at Lin Xiuwen and was relieved to see that he believed her. She said hurriedly, "Fourth brother, we can't just let this go."

"Ye Nanyue! Why did she do this!" Lin Xiuwen frowned, looking very unwilling and angry.

Seeing him like this, Lin Wannian couldn't help but curse him for being stupid in her heart, but she didn't show it at all on the surface.

"Why else? Of course it's because I can't bear to leave Fourth Brother and don't want you to get engaged to someone else." Lin Wannian said.

When Lin Xiuwen heard this, he felt that this was the truth. The more he thought about it, the more unwilling he became.

The more I think about it, the angrier I get.

"Fourth brother, Madam Ye has been hesitant to make a decision, but things are going well with her husband."

Lin Wannian said, "She's ruining your marriage and isn't willing to help you. I think... she's not as stupid as she used to be."

"I'm afraid you're on guard against Fourth Brother. Fourth Brother, you can't just sit there and wait for death!"

The more Lin Xiuwen listened, the more he felt that what Lin Wannian said made sense.

He nodded solemnly: "You are right! Women are indeed the most vicious. However...she did this because she admired me too much."

"So, that's why you don't want to see me get engaged to someone else."

Hearing Lin Xiuwen still having such delusions, Lin Wannian almost couldn't help rolling her eyes.

This Lin Xiuwen is really... delusional and fanciful!

But when he said that, Lin Wannian followed her words: "Fourth brother, you two eloped before, and you broke your promise. I'm afraid she is still angry about that incident."

"I see that you two haven't been getting along well lately. Why don't you ask her out tonight and have a good talk with her?"

"If Ye Nanyue is willing to help you, you will have hope of passing the imperial examination."

After hearing what Lin Wannian said, Lin Xiuwen felt that it made more and more sense.

He nodded solemnly: "What you said... is indeed the case."

"Then... Fourth Brother, find a way to get her to meet you. You can ask her why she instigated that little bastard to frame you like this."

Lin Wannian said, "Fourth Brother, use this as an excuse. If she doesn't show up, you'll go find trouble with that little bastard. I'm sure she won't dare not come."

These few times, Lin Xiuwen wanted to see Ye Nanyue, but found that she refused to come.

At first I thought she was just being grumpy, but as time went on, I actually started to feel vaguely uneasy.

After hearing what Lin Wannian said, she felt it made sense and nodded, "Okay, I'll ask Deng Zhuo to invite her over. I'm sure she won't dare not come."

Lin Wannian finally breathed a sigh of relief and took two steps towards Lin Xiuwen. "When the time comes... Fourth Brother, you have to be more proactive. After all, Madam Ye is a woman. If you take the initiative and you two have physical contact... she will definitely obey you."
