ing so many weddings, this one was the most spectacular. They had new topics to discuss after tea and dinner, and they were eyewitnesses to it all.It has to be said that Meng Jin Yao still has a good...Wei Mansion

As night fell and silence enveloped the house, most of the people inside had already retired for the night.

A woman of breathtaking beauty sat motionless at her vanity table, holding a jade comb in her hand. Slowly and deliberately, she combed through her already neat hair.

It seemed as if she wasn't just combing her hair, but rather trying to untangle the chaos in her own heart.

These two were precisely Huizhou's magistrate, Sir Wei, and his wife, Mei Qingyun.

Seeing that she hadn't yet discovered his arrival, Wei thought about who she might be thinking of, and his anger grew even stronger. He didn't want her to feel good, so he sneered: "After more than ten years, you finally see the person you've been longing for, but he's already married with a beautiful wife by his side. Mrs. Gu is young and beautiful, and they are deeply in love. I wonder how you feel about that"

Hearing the sound, Mei Qingyun came back to her senses. She looked into the mirror and suddenly saw another person appear. She was startled at first, then a little confused. She had been so engrossed in her thoughts that she hadn't noticed when her husband arrived, let alone what he said.

Lord Wei saw that she seemed not to have heard what he said, anger rose in his heart, but he didn't want to miss the opportunity to provoke her, so he repeated himself.

Mei Qingyun's face changed suddenly: "Wei Heng, what nonsense are you talking about"

Lord Wei saw the change in her expression and smirked maliciously. "Mei Qingyun, no matter how well you disguise yourself in front of others, you can't fool me. Don't think I didn't see it, he helping Madam Gu onto the carriage... you watched for a long while, then turned away with your handkerchief nearly torn to shreds. Now, are you regretting breaking off the engagement"

Mei Qingyun gazed at her husband in the mirror. He was plump, his face round as well. Back then, her husband had been a suave and elegant young man. But now, he was gone, replaced by someone she found repulsive. Everything had changed, even herself; she no longer resembled the woman she once was.

Now they are together, it's mutual torment, poking at each other's wounds. Neither wants the other to be happy, but comically, they put on a show of being a loving couple in front of others, making people think they really are a sweet pair.

Sometimes she would recall the handsome and talented young man from her memory, but upon seeing her husband, she would choose to forget. After ten years, everything had changed. The handsome youth she remembered was probably now like her husband: middle-aged, with a pot belly, and his youthful beauty gone.

However, today she saw the boy from her memory. He wasn't what she had imagined, just more mature and composed than he was ten years ago, yet still handsome. Even more, he had become more charming with the passage of time.

Even though Gu Jingxi had an ailment and wasn't a normal man, there were still young girls who looked at him shyly. As for Wei Heng, a normal man, he didn't receive this kind of treatment.

Mei Qingyun let out a mocking laugh: "Yes, I regret breaking the engagement, but I regret marrying you even more. Even if Gu Jingxi has a hidden illness, he's better than you, a man. You're just a pathetic wimp, I can't stand you!"

"Regret"

Wei's face changed, he reached out and pinched her chin, stabbing at her heart: "Mei Qingyun, the person who has the least right to say regret now is you. It was you who disliked him for falling ill, causing your parents to break off the engagement. It was you who abandoned him first. Even marrying me was your own free will. The person you thought about day and night, the person who refused to marry for over a decade and never forgot you, ultimately married someone else, caring for them deeply. You'll never get him in this lifetime."

Upon hearing this, Mei Qingyun's heart suddenly ached. She had truly liked Gu Jingxi back then. Gu Jingxi was radiant and handsome, the top scholar of his year. Everyone envied her for having such a fiancé. But Gu Jingxi fell ill, and from then on, he was essentially a eunuch. No matter how much she liked him, she couldn't marry him and spend her life as a widow, could she

After the breakup, she married Wei Heng, who had promised her a lifetime of love. Little did she know that this marriage was her retribution for abandoning Gu Jingxi. Wei Heng broke his word and took a concubine less than two years after their wedding, having children with her and saying that she couldn't give birth, so there was no need to stop others from having children.

She has suffered, cried in the dead of night, harbored resentment, and even felt jealousy. She has even let her own hands be stained with blood.

And her former fiancé, after their breakup, never married. With a family background like Changxing Houfu, even if she married and ended up widowed, many people would be willing to do so. But Gu Jingxi refused to marry, and many people said it was because of her.

Is it really because of her She doesn't know, but she truly regrets it. If only she had known that she couldn't bear children, she should have just stayed married to Gu Jingxi. Then they could have adopted a child, and there wouldn't be this need for her trusted maid to give birth and then for them to raise the child under her name. That way, although she would have a child, her husband wouldn't only love her.

But regret was useless, everything couldn't be reversed. The white moonlight in her heart had already married someone else. She could tell Gu Jingxi liked Meng Jin Yao very much, that's why he was so gentle and considerate to her. Originally, all this could have belonged to her, but she lost it.

When Wei saw her eyes were moist and tears swirling in them, yet she stubbornly refused to let them fall, he loosened his grip on her chin and smiled maliciously: “Mei Qingyun, that’s how we’ll spend our lives, isn't it”

Mei Qingyun glared at the man before her with a provocative glint in her eyes, sneering, "I killed your favorite concubine and the child you had with her. Don't you hate me If you have the guts, divorce me!"

Lord Wei gritted his teeth and snarled, "Poisonous woman, I wouldn't let you go free. That would be too easy for you. We'll torture each other for the rest of our lives!"

He stopped speaking and roughly pulled Mei Qingyun from her chair. As she stumbled and nearly fell, he unceremoniously scooped her up and carried her toward the bed, ignoring her resistance and forcing himself upon her.

Mei Qingyun disliked him and naturally didn't want to have this kind of contact. She initially resisted, but when her clothes were torn off, she realized that resistance was futile. She became numb and lay there, allowing him to do whatever he wanted.

Lord Wei saw this and instantly lost interest. He raised his hand and slapped Mei Qingyun across the face with a resounding slap. "How Even now, are you still thinking about Gu Jingxi"

Before Mei Qingyun could reply, he continued, “Let alone the woman lying beside Gu Jingxi, even if there were no one else around him, a man like him, who is essentially a eunuch, cannot give you this kind of happiness!”

Mei Qingyun wasn't the first time he was slapped, her expression indifferent: "Wei Heng, this makes me think you're pathetic.

Hearing this, Lord Wei stormed in, seemingly wanting to torment her and make her suffer.

Mei Qingyun frowned, then immediately wrapped her arms around him, twisting and turning back with a fierce determination. She not only responded but also, as she held his neck, bit his shoulder hard.

Wei DaRen felt the pain in his shoulder, muttered under his breath "crazy woman", yet he didn't push her away. Instead, he hardened his resolve and began to toss her about.

Moments later, Mei Qingyun tasted the metallic tang of blood and finally loosened her grip.

However, at this time, it also came to an end.

Mei Qingyun looked at the bloodstained imprint on his shoulder, a mocking smile on her lips. Her teeth were stained with blood, and this smile seemed rather frightening, like that of a madman.

Then, she sarcastically said, "Wei Heng, you're a man with some backbone, not a eunuch, but not much better than one. You're utterly useless!

Wei Heng used to be quite capable in the past, but later he often spent his time in the company of beautiful women, neglecting his health. As he got older, he became less effective. getting by, pretending to be happy. Gu Jingxi actually felt that they were one, treating her as a wife in the truest sense, sharing weal and woeI have to say, Marquis Gu is surprisingly responsible....
