Exile after Divorce? Empty the Scumbag Husband First!-Chapter 225 - 222: "Zhang Yue, I Know Your Name Is Zhang Yue; You’re Not My Ayue at All.
But with resentment in the past, who can bear seeing the one they worry about being treated so?
In response, Ruan Mian devised a plan to get Xie Huai’an to cooperate with her, and she wrote a note overnight, asking someone the next day to contact Lisi and personally hand it to her.
On the other side, Zhang Yue anxiously awaited the note delivered by Lisi.
In her moment of hesitation, Mu Ren’s voice echoed from outside.
She quickly hid those things and obediently knelt on the ground.
Today, she unexpectedly obeyed, Mu Ren called her Ayue, and she responded, dragging her sick leg to gently massage his shoulder.
Mu Ren was coaxed by her, and with his mood uplifted, he held her in his arms, staring at her with burning eyes, suddenly speaking.
"Zhang Yue, I know you are called Zhang Yue. You are not my Ayue at all."
"Why do you look so much like her then? She left without saying goodbye, leaving me all alone. Do you know how long I’ve missed her?"
"If I can’t find her in this lifetime, then you will be her. At least my heart, the heart of this Princely Heir, is joyful. Ayue, don’t you think so?"
Zhang Yue trembled, staring at the man in front of her, and no one knew how tumultuous her heart was.
She never expected that the man she once knew would become so obsessed.
The more he was like this, the more she wished she could end him herself!!
So, she must listen to that lady’s words, listen to Ah Huai’s words. Only by leaving the Prince Mansion is there hope...
Two days later.
The entire Prince Mansion was adorned in bright lights, and even the streets outside the mansion were cheerful and festive.
Both sides united in marriage, a joyous event, with Mu Ren leading the wedding procession that spanned several miles, carrying the bridal sedan around Xingjia State City in a circuit, receiving the blessings and homage of the common people.
Until a horse suddenly charged into the procession!
A servant of the Prince Mansion kneeled before Mu Ren, shouting: "Young Master! Young Master, it’s not good, the Prince Mansion’s separate residence caught fire, that Ayue lady, she... she..."
"What did you say?!"
Mu Ren’s face changed drastically, he pulled the reins tightly and ran out of the procession without looking back.
The people were puzzled, and the entire procession was forced to stop.
Sitting in the sedan, Ruan Jiao asked the maid with confusion.
"What happened?"
Upon hearing that the separate residence of the Prince Mansion caught fire and the Princely Heir did not care for her and decisively returned to the Prince Mansion, Ruan Jiao angrily lifted her veil and shouted furiously while holding onto it.
"Why isn’t anyone stopping him?! Why isn’t anyone stopping him!!"
"With so many commoners watching outside, he just leaves me behind to go back to save that concubine?! What does he take me for?"
Obviously, Mu Ren didn’t take her seriously, now he only had the intention to return to the Prince Mansion.
By that time, the separate residence of the Prince Mansion was already in chaos, and everyone was watching the overwhelming fire, unable to stop it, afraid to approach.
They could only sprinkle some water from a distance.
Little did they know, outside the side gate of the separate residence, Ruan Mian and Lisi had already taken Zhang Yue out of the residence.
As long as they climbed over this courtyard wall, someone outside would be there to help her escape.
However, at that moment, a maid chased after them, eyes wide open, angrily scolding them!
"Stop right there! None of you can leave! Who are you?!"
This person was Shuang’er, specially left by Ruan Jiao to prevent the concubine from ruining her plans today.
But she never expected such a big incident to occur!
Ruan Mian saw it was the same bullying maid from two days ago, working for Ruan Jiao, and immediately glanced at Zhang Yue: "Forgive me, Lady Zhang, I need to borrow your outer garment now."
With that, she took off Zhang Yue’s outer skirt, signaling Lisi to take her away.
Lisi wanted to say something, but the situation was urgent, leaving no time for hesitation.
Supporting the limping Zhang Yue, they immediately moved forward.
Shuang’er immediately chased after them, shouting as she ran.
But she had barely shouted a few words when Ruan Mian directly blocked her path, grabbed her throat with one hand, and tightened her grip, choking her until her eyes were bloodshot, completely suffocating her!
If not for considering the future, Ruan Mian would have wanted to end her with a knife.
But her body was still useful.
After she stopped breathing, Ruan Mian immediately changed her into the outer garment left by Zhang Yue and tightly pressed a wooden hairpin under the woman’s body to ensure it wouldn’t burn.
However, Ruan Mian had previously painted a solvent on the wooden hairpin, extracted from mineral resources in the space, which would be somewhat useful.
After dragging her into the residence building, she summoned the White Tiger to flip over the courtyard wall in a few moves!
Then she collected it, ran forward a bit to meet Lisi and the others.
So when Mu Ren arrived, the fire was already to the point of being uncontrollable.
He shouted for all the servants in the mansion to extinguish the fire, even alarming the government office and other people from the Prince Mansion.
When the fire was finally put out with difficulty, he walked heavily to the ruins and debris.
He almost rushed into the room, scanning eagerly inside, checking two rooms before finally finding a woman’s corpse burnt beyond recognition in one of the rooms.
In such a big fire, how could he distinguish the face?
But the edge of the clothing left was the fabric Zhang Yue had worn the past two days.
What’s more, there were no other women serving in the separate residence.
Mu Ren silently shed two lines of tears, suddenly changed his expression, and angrily pulled the corpse up, kicking it furiously!
"Zhang Yue, you slut, just because you didn’t want to be my Ayue, you went so far as to burn yourself to death?"
"Get up for me! Get up! Do you think you can escape me by burning yourself? No, I will not let you leave this separate residence for my whole life! Someone, bury her here for me!"
A servant nearby thought he had heard wrong, knelt on the ground with a thud, unable to believe it: "B-bury her here?"
"Can’t you understand what the Princely Heir is saying?! B-u-r-y her here!"
The people behind watched this scene with mixed emotions, yet Mu Ren was neither relieved nor remorseful, instead, he whipped the corpse, unwrapping the Jade Waistband, and mercilessly using it to strike the corpse.
Showing no regard for the dignity of a corpse or his own dignity as the Princely Heir.
Some servants felt frightened, distancing themselves in fear.
However, when the corpse was moved, the wooden hairpin unexpectedly appeared in Mu Ren’s sight.
His face froze, suddenly losing control and rushing over to pick it up.
Trembling hands holding the wooden hairpin, his eyes full of disbelief, an indescribable pain surged in his chest, fiercely gripping his heart.
With a thud, he knelt on the ground, his face full of dejection.
"Ayue... How could you have the thing I gave to Ayue?!"
As if greatly stimulated, he suddenly stood up, tightly hugging the corpse.
"Ayue! Are you really Ayue?!"
Then he burst into tears: "Ayue, why didn’t you tell me you were her! Why did you have to die in front of me! It’s all my fault, it’s all my fault..."
"You must be angry with me because I married another woman, that’s why you set fire to yourself!"
