The Road to Doting Wife

Chapter 13 Innocent
"Why are you angry? You asked your brother to find out if I was married. Didn't you want me to be responsible for you? Now that you don't sleep and come here to wait for me, don't you want to lure me to come and urge me to marry you? Ah Ju, you are born like this , I do have the qualifications to confuse people, but don't continue to pretend to be reserved, I will lose patience if I do it too many times."

His eyes were cold, contemptuous and mocking, and the anger in Ah Ju's heart gradually became unbelievable. He, what is he talking about?
Zhao Chen subconsciously interpreted her shock as being exposed. He sneered and warned in a low voice: "Now let me let go, let's discuss the marriage carefully. As long as you withdraw from the Meng family, I will marry you immediately. If you still pretend to be noble If you want to welcome or refuse, I won't play with you any longer." After saying this, he took a deep look at her and let go of his hand, but his body didn't move away, imprisoning her domineeringly between himself and the wall.

He looked serious, and his words were dignified. Ah Ju knew that this was not the time to panic and resist.

She can call out, but there are neighbors on the left and right, alarm them, what will they think?
She lowered her eyes, tried to calm herself down, recalled all the words he had said after entering the room, and then explained to him one by one: "Master Zhao may have misunderstood, I never asked my brother to inquire about you You are in charge. The reason I come to the study now is because I always feel short in the afternoon, and I come here to read when I wake up. As for the marriage, Zhong... I and he are in love with each other, and I have never thought of retiring. Please let Mr. Zhao let go. Today It’s as if it never happened.”

Zhao Chen looked at her carefully with deep eyes.

It was the first time she was so calm in front of herself.

He didn't want to believe her, but he remembered that Lin Chongjiu once said that she really woke up early, so she would go to the river to find him...

"Your brother asked me how old I am if I can get married. You didn't ask me to ask?" He stared at her and asked expressionlessly.

"No." Ah Ju looked straight at him without hesitation: "I'm already engaged, why would I ask you out of curiosity? It must be my younger brother..."

"Don't quibble, what does he know as a seven-year-old child, you clearly asked him to ask." Zhao Chen interrupted her suddenly, with a sneer on the corner of his mouth: "You have been touched by me and I have seen you, except for me. Who can I marry? Ah Ju, let me say this for the last time, don't play any more tricks, since I touched you, I will be responsible for you, as long as you withdraw from the Meng family..."

"I don't need you to be responsible!" The more he said, the more outrageous he was, Ah Ju interrupted him abruptly, completely unaware of what this man was thinking, first peeping rudely and then designing teasing, she couldn't hide from him in time, how could she play with him What trick?
Zhao Chen's face was frosty, he lowered his head to look at her chest, and then raised his eyes to her: "I will be responsible if I touch you." The more she didn't want to give it, the more he wanted it. He might never meet such a woman in the future.What's more, admitting that there was a misunderstanding at this moment, wouldn't those promises to marry her before prove that he was passionate?Let a peasant girl laugh at him and despise him, he will not give her such a chance.

He pressed her even tighter, and his voice became more frivolous: "You and I are like this, how can you marry Meng Zhongjing? Are you not afraid that he will think you are not chaste after he finds out?"

Ah Ju's face turned pale for an instant, and she wanted to scold him, but when she met the man's eyes full of hostility, she was afraid again.She didn't know what the identity of this person was, she only knew that she must be inferior to him.Ah Ju didn't dare to meet him head-on, bit her lips and turned her eyes away, and softened her voice to persuade him: "Mr. Zhao, that day I fell into the water with my younger brother. It was a chivalrous act for you to save us. It is really urgent and helpless to touch me. As long as you If you don't tell it, no one will know, Mr. Zhao really doesn't need to be humble..."

"I don't think it's low." Zhao Chen was unmoved, and still said to himself: "A man stands upright, if I touch you, I will be responsible."

Being indomitable, forcing a weak girl is also considered indomitable?
Knowing that he was just making excuses for his evil deeds, Ah Ju showed sarcasm, and turned his head angrily: "I don't need you to be responsible! If you insist on threatening this, just go and tell him, you and I are innocent, I don't believe it He will dislike me because of this." She explained clearly to Meng Zhongjing, and he would definitely believe her.

"Innocent?" Zhao Chen smiled lowly, raised her chin, and asked her: "Is this also called innocence?"

He wanted to do this as early as when the body was close, especially when she kept saying things that were completely contrary to what he expected, he wanted her to shut up even more.

Even if it was a misunderstanding, it was her family who made it up. She wanted to send him away with a few words and laugh at him behind his back for being self-righteous?

Impossible, no one can tease him like this.

I don't know if it's from the pain or because of the humiliation, Ah Ju let go of her hands, and tears welled up in her eyes.

She likes Meng Zhongjing, and she wants to leave everything to him. In her dreams, she also dreamed of embarrassing scenes, nervous, shy, gentle, and couldn't remember the details when she woke up. In her room, she was imprisoned and bullied by another man...

She cried silently, but she was desperate as if she was on the verge of death.

The man suddenly let go of her, and Ah Ju regained his freedom, so he wanted to call someone, but his low-pitched and angry threat sounded in front of him: "If you call someone, or tell a third person about this, I will definitely ruin your reputation. If you don't believe me, just try it!"

Ruined...

Ah Ju lost her voice, opened her eyes in despair, and met the man's angry eyes. She wanted to avoid him, but he had already left with a gust of wind.

She stared blankly at him leaving the room, hearing the sound of footsteps walking away, her body finally fell down uncontrollably.

Her lips were sore, she tremblingly wiped it off, and when she touched the wound, the back of her hand was stained with blood.

Ah Ju covered her face and wept bitterly.

Crying and crying, Ah Ju wiped away her tears, got up and walked to her sister's desk, and found a small bronze mirror on it.It was given to their sister by their aunt. Hers is in the room. The younger sister likes to look in the mirror, so she brought it to the study to play.Ah Ju picked up the mirror, paused, and slowly lifted it in front of her.

The mirror was very clear, Ah Ju saw herself inside, her face was pale, and there were red finger marks on both sides of her chin, which were pinched out by a man. Ah Ju bit her lip, almost biting the place where she was bitten by that man.

All reminding her of what happened before.

Tears rolled down again, and Ah Ju lay on the table, crying endlessly.

Tell her parents that they will definitely make the decision for her, but she dare not, she is afraid of his threats, and she doesn't want others to know that she has been touched by him.

She didn't want anyone to know that she was dirty.

As long as she avoids him, as long as she finds a way not to let her brother go to him, there will be no reason for him to come from home anymore.In just over three months, she will be Meng Zhongjing's wife. He comes from a wealthy family, how could he keep pestering a peasant woman?
Ah Ju slowly raised her head, faced the mirror, and pinched her own face.

The wound on the corner of the mouth can be said to be accidentally bitten by him. The finger marks on the face are not very serious and should be easily eliminated.

There was movement on the street, people who had been resting for a while gradually woke up, Ah Ju looked in the mirror, the finger marks had disappeared as expected, and went to fetch water to wash his face.While washing, my mother came out.Ah Ju pretended to be calm and kept pouring water on his face.

Liu put the basin next to the eldest daughter, and Nahan asked her: "Aju woke up early, do you know when Mr. Zhao left?"

Ah Ju shook his head.After he went out, she never paid attention to his movements again. If something like this happened, he must be ashamed to continue to stay, right?

But the father's explanation came from the door: "I asked Xiaojiu. Xiaojiu said that Mr. Zhao suddenly remembered something at home and mentioned it to Xiaojiu. He didn't let him wake us up and left by himself. Xiaojiu fell into a deep sleep Confused, I don't know when he left."

Ah Ju bit her lip.

When he greeted his younger brother, did he plan to keep in touch with his family in the future?Are you sure she dare not say it?

Ah Ju hated and feared, staring at the water basin in a daze.

"Ah, big sister, why is the corner of your mouth bleeding?" Lin Chongjiu walked over at some point, he was short, even though Ah Ju lowered his head, he could still see the wound on the corner of her mouth.

Ah Ju came back to her senses, saw her mother tilted her head to look at her with concern, and explained with a forced smile: "It's okay, I had a dream at noon, and I was still eating when I woke up, so I accidentally bit it." He looked at his younger brother with complicated eyes .The man's words indicated that it was his younger brother's inquiry that made him misunderstand. The younger brother is still young, so it must be his younger sister's curiosity who instigated him.But what can she do?If you ask your sister, it means that she has dealt with that beast in clothes, and even her lips are suspicious.

She can't ask, she can only pretend that she doesn't know anything.

Amidst the teasing of her mother and younger brother, Ah Ju wiped her face and went back to the house.

When she entered the room, the younger sister just sat up, lazily, with disheveled hair, and coquettishly called her "big sister".

Ah Ju endured her sadness and urged her to wash up.

My younger sister is just a child, she doesn't understand anything, she doesn't understand that some people are wolves in human clothing, who take advantage of the opportunity to bully others.

"Sister, I washed some cherries. You can try them. The cherries Mr. Zhao sent are quite delicious." After a while, Lin Zhu walked in with a smile, holding some freshly washed bright red cherries. cherry.

Ah Ju didn't even look at it, she lowered her head and continued her embroidery work: "Eat it yourself."

Her tone was not good, Lin Zhu only thought that the eldest sister didn't like Mr. Zhao, and didn't even touch the cherries he gave him, so he shut up resentfully, and sat aside to eat by himself.

For the next three days, Ah Ju tried to persuade his younger brother not to learn any more kung fu.

Lin Chongjiu was determined and insisted on learning.

Ah Ju had no choice but to persuade his father on the grounds of delaying his studies. Lin Xian listened and called his son to check his homework. As a result, Lin Chongjiu knew everything by heart.

Ah Ju had no choice but to hope that the man would become angry after being rejected, and with some face, he would break the appointment and stay away from her house.

Lin Chongjiu didn't know what the elder sister was thinking, and when the appointed day arrived, he went to the river excitedly.
