Why My Domineering Prince Regretted Filing for Divorce?-Chapter 49: His voice seems a bit gentle

Since then, Shang Ruyi has been feeling dizzy, as if her whole being is floating on a cloud.

The only clear thing is Yu Wenye taking her away from the army camp to return to the mansion but discovering that she was completely exhausted, totally unable to mount or ride a horse. So, with one hand around her slender waist, he embraced her onto the horseback. Nestled in his arms, her heart was pounding almost out of her chest.

In this moment, as the steed galloped and the wind whistled by, there should have been a cacophony of noises, but Shang Ruyi heard none of it.

In her ears, only her own heartbeat rang.

After some uncertain amount of time had passed, she whispered, "You—"

Her voice was very soft, but perhaps because she was sitting in Yu Wenye’s embrace, her back pressed against his chest, even the slightest word whispered like a mosquito was heard by Yu Wenye.

He bowed his head, his chin touching her head, his voice muffled from his chest resonating within her, "What is it?"

Hearing this, his voice seemed a bit tender.

Shang Ruyi’s already flushed face grew even hotter, like red-hot coal.

She softly said, "Nothing, nothing at all."

Yu Wenye glanced at her reddened ear tips but said nothing, continuing to ride on. However, before they had gone far, he suddenly furrowed his brow, his whole body shuddering.

Feeling something was amiss, Shang Ruyi quickly turned to look at him, "What’s wrong?"

Only to see Yu Wenye gritting his teeth, gripping the reins tightly with one leg stiffly pressed against the stirrup, a layer of sweat forming on his forehead.

After a while, he finally steadied his breath and said, "Nothing, a cramp."

"A cramp?"

Shang Ruyi looked down at his leg, "Did you get injured?"

Yu Wenye shook his head, continuing to ride forward as he replied, "Not injured, it acts up occasionally over the past couple of years. It’s nothing serious."

Shang Ruyi wanted to ask more, but seeing his stern face, clearly not wanting to discuss further, she could only silently lower her head again.

As for Yu Wenye, at this moment, one hand holding her, the other clutching the reins as he rode on, his expression was stern, yet his eyes seemed to hold some profound emotions, subtly stirring.

After what seemed an endless time, they finally returned to Yuwen Mansion.

Someone was already waiting at the side gate, and upon seeing their return, breathed a sigh of relief and approached, saying, "Young Master, Young Madam, you’re finally back. The dining room is prepared, the Duke and the Madam are waiting for you."

Upon hearing this, Shang Ruyi panicked.

Though the two of them were newly married, allowing the elders to wait was the least appropriate.

Yu Wenye, however, remained composed, first dismounting from the horse before turning to lift her off. The few servants witnessing this couldn’t help but laugh, and under the night, Shang Ruyi’s face reddened a bit.

Yu Wenye said, "Let’s freshen up first, then head to the dining room. I’ll explain to Father."

Shang Ruyi softly replied, "Mm."

Thus, Wo Xue and others immediately assisted Shang Ruyi to her room for a quick wash before she hurried to the dining room. As soon as she entered, she heard Yu Wenquan’s deep voice saying, "You are truly inconsiderate, asking you to take your wife around for a few days, yet you took her to the army camp. That place is filthy and smelly. Is that where a woman should go?"

Yu Wenye’s voice was calm, "Father is right to reprimand me."

Shang Ruyi’s heart sank, and just as she was about to say something, she heard Aunt Hui, who was serving to the side, smile and say, "Young Master, after all, Young Madam is a lady. Going to a place filled with men like the army camp, it’s really not suitable to mention outside."

"..."

Yu Wenye cast a cold glance at her.
