MTL - After Giving Way To My Husband’s Sweetheart

Chapter 32 There is a rift between you and me

Sima Chao came back from duty and hurried towards Wangchun Hall.

Wang Jia waited by the corridor all afternoon, and saw Sima Chao striding towards him from a distance. She felt a little rabbit racing in her heart, and quickly straightened her clothes, tied her hair into a long bun, and played with the flowers on the tree pretentiously with her hands. Hua, but the corner of her eyes was staring closely at the person she had been waiting for.

As Sima Chao approached, Wang Jia's heart beat harder and harder, but Sima Chao didn't look away and didn't notice her until she passed by.

Wang Jia's heart suddenly cooled down.

 “Cousin——” She pouted and finally couldn’t help but call out.

Sima Chao then discovered that there was a big living person on the roadside. He stopped and saw that it was Wang Jia, and his face gradually darkened.

Wang Jia hesitated and stepped forward, gave Sima Chao a slight blessing, and said softly: "I've met my cousin."

Sima Chao nodded and immediately ordered someone to call the steward.

Love saw that he was angry again, so she simply shut up.

Sima Chao put down the embroidery, looked at Love and said with a smile: "Since you are so good at women's red, how about making me a sachet? Put some mugwort in it. It's already summer, so I can wear mosquito repellent."

Sima Chao frowned slightly and said in confusion: "Why did the young master of the Zhou family fall down the cliff because he has extraordinary martial arts skills? This matter is a bit strange."

It’s not that Love is afraid of him, it’s that Love finds it boring that the two of them are arguing like this.

Sima Chao nodded slightly in response.

For this cousin from his mother's clan, Sima Chao originally regarded her as a little sister and had some protection in his heart. However, since the Wang family came to him yesterday and said that he would give Wang Jiaozhi as his wife, Sima Chao inexplicably disliked this cousin from the bottom of his heart.

 The way she put him at risk always made Sima Chao feel flustered.

Thinking of Sima Chao ruthlessly abandoning her just to take advantage of her, Love felt chilled. She glanced at Sima Chao and said slowly: "That Rouji is also a poor person. She is weak, but she was sent to do menial work in the garden by the manager. She has been tortured to the point of being dehumanized. Please show mercy. Forgive her."

After Sima Chao heard this, his face turned cold, he frowned and stared at Love and asked: "There is no rift between us. I have always been honest with you, but you are cold-hearted and always want to be at odds with me."

 In short, she is far behind Love in every aspect, hum! When it comes to marrying a wife, he must at least marry someone he likes.

Love still ignored her, Sima Chao winked at the old lady, and the old lady stepped back respectfully.

Love retorted: "If you and I are really inseparable, how can others provoke it? Unfortunately, we already have a rift in our hearts. Even if there is no such girl, there is still a rift. Why do you need to vent your anger on others?"

Hearing this, Sima Chao ignored the matter and took the embroidery she was doing. He looked at the lifelike flowers and plants and said with a smile: "The embroidery is indeed very good, but you embroider these things every day." What do you do with it? I've never seen you use it."

 Actually, Sima Chao would rather Love quarrel with him than see her treat her so coldly.

Sima Chao awkwardly placed the tea cup on the table beside Love. He rubbed his hands in confusion, finally feeling happy.

Love nodded. She thought about what Rouji wanted today and said, "She wants to be a female envoy in the house. This is not an extravagant request."

After a while, the stewardess of the inner courtyard walked in and asked respectfully: "What are your orders, the eldest son?"

Love said perfunctorily: "I'll make it for you after I find a trick."

When Sima Chao heard Love mention this, the smile on his face faded and he replied: "Okay, what are you doing to mention her? She is just a concubine, not worth taking seriously."

Love stopped arguing with Sima Chao. She picked up the embroidery and continued working on it without any distractions.

Sima Chao heard him mention Love, and then he took a look at her. When he saw Wang Jia wearing plain clothes like Love, he couldn't help but feel angry.

 Seventy-seven. Seventy-six. One hundred and seventy-six. Fourty-six

Love nodded and said: "What a pity."

The plain-colored clothes looked like hibiscus and immortal when worn on Luo Fu. But when worn on Wang Jia, they looked indescribably awkward. In addition, Wang Jia has a dark complexion, which can be covered up by applying thick powder on weekdays. Now he is imitating Love and not applying powder, which is simply unbearable to watch.

 Is Ji Nu not a human being?

As he said that, he turned to look at Love, who was busy doing a show, and softened his tone and said, "Is it okay this time?"

Love asked: "Did you find anything?"

 The two of them are destined not to be each other's lovers.

　　The housekeeper is a charming person. When she saw this, she quickly flattered Luo Fu and said, "Mr. Luo Fu is kind-hearted and a rare good master. I would like to thank Madam for your great kindness on behalf of Rou Ji."

 “Is it okay?” Seeing that Love was still ignoring her, Sima Chao couldn’t bear his temper and asked again.

Sima Chao said "hmm" and sat down next to Luo Fu. He asked: "The day before yesterday, the young master Zhou Shang of the Yongping Marquis Mansion went hunting in the mountains and disappeared. The Ministry of Punishments did not find out the clue. This morning, His Majesty ordered I will take people to the site to investigate."

Sima Chao didn't reply to Wang Jia. He only glanced at her briefly and then strode towards Wangchun Hall.

Sima Chao ordered: "Change that Rou Ji to another job and let her be a female envoy."

As she spoke, she said to Sima Chao: "I met Rou Ji in the garden today."

 Love said nothing, and did not reach out to take his tea.

Sima Chao said, "She talks nonsense and drives a wedge between you and me. How can I forgive her? If I don't take her life, it's already an open policy."

"Okay, then as you said, forgive Rou Ji." Sima Chao was silent for a while, and finally looked at Love's face and spoke.

When Wang Jia saw Sima Chao's expression of indifference, she couldn't help feeling disappointed, but she didn't want to give up. Wang Jia forced a smile and greeted Sima Chao: "Cousin, are you going to find Sister Luo? I was just here I'm picking flowers here, and I saw Sister Luo just returned."

When Luofu saw him asking about this, she was shocked and quickly covered it up: "I have nothing to do, I just embroidered to pass the time."

There were only two people left in the room, and the silent and oppressive atmosphere made Sima Chao feel very uneasy. He walked to the table and drank a cup of tea, poured another one and gave it to Love, and tried to calm down. : "Don't just do that stuff, drink some tea and take a rest."

Luofu was doing embroidery. When she saw Sima Chao coming back, she didn't even raise her head and just said casually: "You came back early today."

Sima Chao is not a sentimental person like Zhou Shang, and it is impossible for him to make sacrifices for himself. It was impossible for her to follow in her previous life and commit herself to being his concubine for the rest of her life, living a life without dignity and independence.

Sima Chao replied: "I only found some **** clothes that had been torn by wild beasts under the cliff. It looked like they were attacked by wild beasts after accidentally falling off the cliff."

Seeing that Love was still ignoring her, Sima Chao cleared his throat and said, "That Rouji deserves to die for talking nonsense. Madam is kind-hearted and pleads for her. You just have to find another job for her."

He looked at Love with a hint of flattery: "The second sister is about to enter the palace, and the whole family will go to the family temple to worship their ancestors the next day. Do you want to go with us?"

Before Sima Chao finished speaking, Love raised her head and replied: "I'm going."
