Rebirth Of The General's Granddaughter

Chapter 122 Fellow Sufferers Empathize With Each Other; The Truth is Revealed [2]

After reproaching her, he thought a bit and pled, “Good You’er, the one to suffer in the future will be you. Do you want to be a living widow before you get married? You should let your husband, me, off.”

“Bah!” Zi You angrily rebuked, “If you dare to speak nonsense again, I’ll cut off your tongue too.”

After all, she was just a twelve-year-old little yatou. Although she was sixteen years old in her previous life and was familiar with male and female relations, she still involuntarily blushed to be so straightforwardly flirted with by a man the same age as she was in her previous life.

Shangguan LingRan actually laughed shamelessly when he saw Zi You’s red face. “You’er, if you want to take this opportunity to find out if your husband, me, is majestic enough, you can just ask. Why do you have to do so much work? Free your husband’s acupuncture point and your husband will personally show you.”

Zi You finally understood what being thick-skinned and a scoundrel was.

She felt that this Shangguan LingRan was a scoundrel and extremely thick-skinned.

The bashful and angry Zi You was angered until tears appeared in her eyes. “You lecher! If I don’t cut your tongue out today, I will...... I will......”

Zi You’s anger made a layer of sparkling and translucent mist appear on her eyelashes.

In addition to her delicate skin like her mother’s and the whiteness of her skin like Mu YingRui’s, she was truly like a freshly-peeled egg: white and tender.

Her anger made her cheeks turn red. That extremely beautiful and elegant pair of purple eyes made her seem more beautiful than usual.

Shangguan LingRan had actually freed his own acupuncture point already. But once he saw her drooping allure like a purple rose, his heart that already liked her liked her even more.

He jumped up and reached for the scissors. Then he pulled the Zi You who was baring her fangs and claws at him, yet was reluctant to take action, into his arms.

He took the scissors and smiled. “You can’t bear it? Ye knows that Ye’s little You’er acts tough, but is softhearted. In fact, you’re very happy to see your husband come, right?”

Zi You was imprisoned his arms. She smelled that familiar and distinctive masculine smell mixed with a fresh bamboo scent. She was so angry that she almost toppled over.

Why was she so careless? She knew that this scoundrel’s martial arts were high, so why did she not tie him up with a rope?

Now, he would certainly not fall for the beauty trap again.

As if he had guessed what she was thinking about, before Zi You finished being upset, Shangguan LingRan smiled. “Darling, you must have been coming up with a plan to subdue your husband, right? Then your husband will tell you that all of your schemes won’t work on your husband. Only the beauty trap will work. Why don’t you try the beauty trap again? Your husband guarantees that he will fall for it.”

Zi You knew that the more she struggled right now, the prouder the scoundrel would be. Thus, she deliberately sighed in his arms. She faintly said, “Shangguan LingRan, why are you trying so hard to keep in contact with me? You saved my life and I saved yours. We’re even now. What more do you want?”

“Even.” Shangguan LingRan feigned being aggrieved and complained, “You’er, that’s an excessive thing to say! We are even when it comes to saving each others’ lives, but don’t forget. When you treated your husband’s injuries, you’ve seen your husband’s whole naked body. If you don’t take responsibility for your husband, then who will your husband marry in the future?”

Zi You was even more humiliated and angry listening to Shangguan LingRan’s words.

When he was unconscious, due to excessive bleeding, much of his clothing was cut. She took off all his clothes to treat his injuries. He actually knew of this matter.

Once she thought of that day’s events, Zi You’s face not only turned red and ears turned hot, but even her breathing hastened.

It was the first time that she had seen a man’s naked body. Although this man was a rogue and a scoundrel, she had to admit that his face and body were those of an evildoer’s!

She didn’t know what good things this scoundrel ate. He was only sixteen years old and he was already 180 centimeters tall [~5’8”].

Not only that, but his body didn’t contain a trace of fat. His body was tall and straight, like that of a tree in a black forest. And that symbol of manhood was completely adult-size.

In her mother’s medical books, she had seen diagrams of the human body. There were men, women, and children. Even the dimensions were clearly marked.

She certainly knew what was big and what was small. This man’s thing was absolutely different from ordinary people.

Zi You was wrapped in Shangguan LingRan’s arms and in very close contact with his body.

Once she remembered this, Zi You was uncomfortable. A strange, never-before feeling hit her whole body.

Her heart beat like a drum. Her body turned hot and dry. Her limbs were weak. Her head felt dizzy.

This poor little yatou had never experienced this feeling even after becoming someone’s wife in her previous life. She didn’t understand why she was feeling like this. She even thought that Shangguan LingRan used some sort of martial arts technique on her and caused her to become like this.

Thus, she began to struggle as she angrily said, “Let go of me. It’s too hot. Uncomfortable......”

Only, she was very ashamed when she said these words!

Her voice was not a firm refusal, but a coquettish moan.

It would be strange if Shangguan LingRan would let go of her when she sounded like that. It was be good if she didn’t say that, but coupled with her body constantly twisting, Shangguan LingRan was enchanted. His soul was about to be sucked away.

His arms around Zi You became more forceful. He said in a low and husky voice in her ear, “Good You’er, I’m hot too. But I’m very happy. I’m very happy that I can hug you. I like you. But I don’t dare to ask imperial grandmother to betroth you to me. I’m afraid of bringing disaster to you and the General’s Manor. So, You’er, don’t get engaged to anyone else. When I have the ability to protect you, can you marry me then? Don’t worry. I won’t have any other women. I will be like your grandfather and uncle. I will only be good to you for a lifetime.”

A wave of heat blew towards Zi You’s ear. Shangguan LingRan’s breath contained the scent of bamboo that rushed into her nose. It was like an electric current passed through her body and numbing her. This feeling couldn’t be said to be bad or comfortable. In short, she had never felt this feeling before.

For a period of time, Zi You started sweating. She took several deep breaths. Her nails pierced into her palms and made that hot and dry sensation feel a little better.

But she did not dare struggle anymore. She could clearly feel that there was a rod against her buttocks.

This time, she at least knew what it was. She wouldn’t use her hand to grab it anyway.

She thought a bit and could only try the beauty trap again. She softly said, “Shangguan LingRan, let go of me first, okay? Only if you let go of me, then we can talk, right?”

Shangguan LingRan looked at how she wasn’t like a little lion brandishing her claws at him anymore and became gentler.

Thus, he let go of her and said, somewhat bashfully, “I originally came to talk to you. But who knew that you would tap my acupuncture point and want to turn me into a eunuch?” When he spoke the last bit, Shangguan LingRan turned a bit embarrassed. Not only did his voice become lower, but his face turned red too.

Zi You’s face also turned red. Her heart that was just calm surged violently again.

She could only cough to hide her panic. “Uh...... Why did you come to find me?”

Shangguan LingRan immediately replied, “You clearly don’t like Zhao HongXiang, so why did you cure his leg and get engaged to him? You’er, he is not a good person. You cannot marry him. He is Taizi’s person. Shangguan Lingluo is also Taizi’s person. That’s why he didn’t dare to step out that day when Shangguan Lingluo insulted you. How can this kind of craven, cowardly, and fawning man be worthy of a brimming-with-talent and lofty and unyielding military family’s Di daughter, You’er?”

“Don’t you always call me stupid?” Zi You coldly asked. “Are your lips smeared with honey today? That’s why you praise me so much?”

Shangguan LingRan scratched his head in embarrassment. “You still hold a grudge? Didn’t I say that because I wanted your attention? The first time that I saw you was on the street. I didn’t know why the market was so lively and bustling, but your back carried an indescribable loneliness that made me notice you in a sea of people. That’s why I deliberately teased you. I feel that we are the same kind of person. We have fathers who might as well not be here. While I was staying at your fu, I saw that your father never came to visit you, who were pretending to be injured. My Wangye father is also the same. He only has the two Shu sons born from ceifeis in his eyes. I, his Di son, am superfluous. If imperial grandmother didn’t object, I’m afraid An Wang Shizi’s position will not belong to me.”

Zi You’s heart was a turbulent sea again.

It was as if she met a fellow sufferer who empathized with her.

Zi You couldn’t help but ask, “Is it because the two cefeis were bestowed to Wangye by the Empress Dowager? That’s why Wangye particularly dotes on them?”

Shangguan LingRan shook his head. “The two cefeis are bestowed by the Emperor. They are his eyes for monitoring my father.”

“Then why does he dote on the cefeis?” Zi You widened her quiet spring-like eyes in incomprehension. “Is it to prove his loyalty to the Emperor? Hehe...... He really can’t tell good from bad. These cold, selfish, and slag men should all go to hell!”

Zi You thought about the Zhao HongXiang from her previous life and couldn’t help but curse out loud.

Shangguan LingRan saw that she hated men so much and didn’t think much of it. He assumed that she was referring to her scoundrel father like his Fuwang.

Thus, he was a bit uncomfortable hearing that she was berating his Fuwang in public.

However, he didn’t have the heart to blame her.

He looked her quiet spring-like eyes that were as cold as ice. His heart unconsciously pained.

This feeling made him realize that he couldn’t let go of the little yatou in front of him.
