Just now, neither Shen nor Yunxi mentioned the matter of the "letter".

Yu Wan finally relaxed a little.

Unexpectedly, Yun Shang returned home in the middle of the night and happened to stumble upon this incident!

When did he come back?

Was it always there, or did it just arrive?

When I argued with Wang Cuicui earlier, there were quite a few onlookers outside the courtyard. Could Yun Shang have been among them?

Did he watch the whole thing?

Yu Wan's mind was buzzing.

After not hearing her reply for a long time, Yun Shang's eyes grew even colder. He stepped closer to Yu Wan, and an undeniable sense of oppression swept over her.

Yu Wan subconsciously took a step back, her back hitting the door panel directly.

She hissed.

Yun Shang's expression remained unchanged until he was close enough to Yu Wan to stop.

The two were only two fists apart. He was tall, and at such a close distance, he had to look down to see her face clearly.

Yu Wan swallowed hard.

She felt as if Yun Shang was radiating cold air.

Her lips twitched slightly as she protested softly, "Yun Shang, you're too close..."

“Answer me.” Yun Shang lowered his gaze to her face, his brows furrowing slightly. “What is this ‘letter’ that Shi Sunzheng mentioned?”

Yu Wan's back was sweating with nervousness. She didn't dare to look Yun Shang in the eye, avoiding his gaze, and whispered, "I don't know, he must have just made it up."

“Shi Sunzheng does have a bad reputation, but under those circumstances, he wouldn’t have dared to deceive Wang Cuicui.” Yun Shang said calmly, his gaze fixed on Yu Wan’s face, as if trying to see any guilt in her expression.

Yu Wan didn't dare to breathe too loudly.

She knew that Yun Shang had become suspicious of her.

The male lead's presence was so overwhelming that Yu Wan felt her legs go weak, and she even wanted to tell him everything!

But if she tells anyone, she'll lose her life!

The male lead is a very vengeful person!

What's more, she harmed the person the male lead cared about most!

Yu Wan could only secretly pinch her palm hard to stay calm.

She suddenly looked up and met Yun Shang's gaze, her neck stiff as she said, "So you're doubting me?"

As the saying goes, the wicked accuse first. Rather than being relentlessly interrogated by Yun Shang, she might as well turn the tables and accuse him!

Her eyes reddened with anger, and her voice choked with sobs, "After my mother-in-law bought me into the Yun family, I have worked diligently and served you all with all my heart. After so many years, even a stone would have been warmed by my warmth!"

"But what about you?"

“You never smile at me. You married me at your mother-in-law’s behest, but you never touch me.”

Do you know what people in the village are saying about me?

"Yes, I know I am not good enough for you. I am just an orphan girl bought by my mother-in-law. You, on the other hand, have a bright future and may become a high-ranking official. Of course, someone like me is not worthy to be your wife!"

Yu Wan realized for the first time that she had such a talent for acting, and that she could play tragic and miserable characters with ease.

She didn't give Yun Shang a chance to speak at all, sniffed and said, "If you really despise me so much, then give me back my indenture. I'll leave the Yun family right now and I definitely won't stay here and get in your way!"

Yu Wan uttered the last sentence in a low growl.

His tone was one of anguish and despair; it made her want to cry.

Yun Shang stared blankly at Yu Wan in front of him.

His eyes fell on her face.

She is crying.

Over the years, he had seen many different expressions on that face.

Secretly pleased, hypocritical, sad and heartbroken... but Yu Wan never shed a single tear.

Therefore, he always felt that Yu Wan was a hypocritical and pretentious person.

Human emotions are complex. If you are in pain and heartbroken, why don't you cry? Unless you're faking it.

But Yu Wan cried at that moment.

Yun Shang felt a strange sense of helplessness.

These eyes shouldn't show sadness or sorrow; they should only show happiness.

When happy, she shines like a star, drawing people's attention wherever she goes.

Yun Shang subconsciously raised his hand.

His body seemed to be out of control of his brain. By the time he realized it, his pale fingertips had already gently stopped at the corner of Yu Wan's eye.

Both of them were startled at the same time.

Yu Wan was so nervous that she screamed like a chicken.

Ahhh—what is Yun Shang planning to do? He's not planning to beat her up, is he?!

Yun Shang's mind went blank for a brief moment.

He had only one thought in his mind.

So soft.

So this is what Yu Wan's face feels like to touch?

Yu Wan felt goosebumps all over her body. The fingertip landing on the corner of her eye felt like a death warrant to her. Her body stiffened, and she didn't dare to move at all.

She was afraid that if she moved even slightly, Yun Shang's hand would land on her neck.

In the original novel, later on, Yun Shang would strangle his enemies with one hand, acting like a killing machine!

"Don't cry."

Yun Shang opened her lips slightly, her voice a little hoarse, and if you listened carefully, you could also detect a hint of guilt hidden deep within.

He awkwardly withdrew his hand, which had been resting near Yu Wan's eye.

cry?

Yu Wan was stunned for a moment, then raised her hand to touch her face.

I actually felt a wetness on my hand.

Yu Wan: "??"

No, she cried?

She was acting; how could she really cry?

Is her acting really that good?!
