I Gave Birth to a Cub without Telling the Head Assistant

Outside the window, there was rumbling thunder, pouring rain, howling wind, and the rattling of the window rafters. But despite the din, Ruan Longling was able to hear every word he uttered. Her mind went blank, she felt as though a basin of cold water had been dumped on her head, and she immediately froze in place, unsure of how to respond for a moment.

‘Liu Chengji doesn’t want to marry her? But before going to the capital, he was not like this. He said he would win, come back, and marry me. Then… everything back was fake? His love and caring were fake?’

As Liu Chegji saw that Ruan Longling was standing without uttering a single word, he became worried. After all, she was his childhood sweetheart who had supported him.

Ruan Longling’s face became pale as a ghost, her lips trembled slightly, and the expression on her beautiful face changed… Liu Chengji knew that she had a strong temper and was worried that she would not be able to bear such a blow for a while, so he hurriedly stepped forward to comfort her. “Ling’er, for the past ten years, you know how I treat you! You know, I have you in my heart! But now that I’ve been selected, it’s really not appropriate to marry you as my first wife. But it doesn’t matter. We can still be together again, my previous promise still counts, and I can still take you to the capital to live a good life. You can be a concubine and still be a responsible person in the concubine…”

– Crack! –

Before the word “concubine’s room” could be uttered, there was a crisp sound in Taowu, interrupting Liu Chengji’s words.

Liu Chengji’s left cheek had a burning sensation as the sudden slap came. In a daze, he covered his left cheek, which was painted in a red five-fingerprint pattern.

Liu Chengji had been in the capital and won a great achievement, so he thought that after returning to Yangzhou, he would be flattered and boasted by the officials of the state government. But now he’s been beaten by a businesswoman? The trace of apology left in his heart completely disappeared with that slap.

“You, how dare you hit me? Oh, yes, you are majestic in front of me because you have money. But you are not even suitable for a concubine. You cruel woman. Yes! I can marry someone else for my official career! What about you? In order to recover the debt and the Ruan family’s business name, you actually announced that you would sue my Liu family to the government. This move will undoubtedly ruin my future. Is there any difference between you and me?!”

The rain was getting heavier and heavier, as if the sky had fallen, smashing the tiles on Taowu.

“Yes, money is the number one priority in your heart, so what does my official career matter?

For a few taels of silver, you have to deal with all kinds of people every day and show your face outside every day… When people come and go, I don’t know how much dirt is hidden in the dark, maybe you have already lost your dignity to others, and let me take advantage of you!”

– Crack! –

There was another crisp sound in Taowu.

Liu Chengji covered his right face in disbelief, feeling the anger in his heart rush to his forehead. “You damn woman! Do you really think I dare not fight with you?!” After finishing speaking, he raised his right palm high, ready to swing vigorously at Ruan Longling.

At this time, there was a sound from inside Taowu.

From behind the six screens inlaid with shells and flowers of peach wood in the inner room, a man dressed in snow-white clothes came out slowly.

A brilliant flash of lightning struck at the right time, tearing the pitch-black sky in half. The man came by lightning, his figure was tall and straight, his aura was imposing, and his handsome face revealed a bit of treachery and fierceness, like a god who would punish evil and promote good.

“Is this the scholar who won first place in the exam in the capital?”
