After Becoming the Hero’s Ex-fiancée Chapter 158

I Miss You (1)

“…Oh,” responded Zheng Wan emotionlessly, then raised her head and said, “Give way.”

The evening sun fell upon her excessively fair face, enhancing her astonishing looks.

“Pfft,” laughed Ming Yu. Little cultivators nowadays all thought that as they had good looks, all the men in the world would give them whatever they wanted.
“Little cultivator, really, go back. Don’t waste your innate Dao core and talent. Li Wei is not someone you’re worthy of.”

Zheng Wan blinked, then blinked again.

She was thinking, dreams and reality were still not quite the same. She didn’t hate this Ming Yu Zhenjun in her dream, but now, as she stood at the bottom of the stairs before Ming Yu, why did she feel so much like messing up her hair?
It’d be even better if she can cut it all off, then give it a couple of stomps.

“And what if I insist?”

“Then, I have no choice but to help your seniors and elders teach their unfilial disciple a lesson.”

Ming Yu Zhenjun’s robe sleeves blew in the wind, and a blow came rushing toward Zheng Wen, seeming like it was just about to land on her— right at this moment, a familiar white figure whistled through the layers of air, like a sharp sword cutting through the sky, and landed in front of Zheng Wan.

With a flick of his fingers, a sword qi collided loudly with the wind pill from Ming Yu Zhenjun.

The remaining force dispersed and faded.

Ming Yu Zhenjun stood rooted to the spot.
“Li Wei?!”

However, she saw the coldness of the white-robed man; the Incandescent Sword came to her throat, making her hesitate to even swallow, and was put away only after a long while.

Ming Yu felt a pain in her throat from the sword qi she had swallowed, and a speculation suddenly popped up in her heart, a speculation so terrible that she quickly suppressed it. It was ridiculous. How would Li Wei take a fancy to such a frivolous woman? Not to mention this woman was still entangled with another.

He must be upset because I was making trouble in front of his door.

The corners of Ming Yu’s lips twitched unconsciously. She was just about to say a few soothing words, when the man who had never smiled in front of her suddenly look down, and his icy eyes seemed to soften a little.
“You go in first.”

You… go in first?
What does that mean?

Ming Yu stared blankly at the little cultivator who shook her head.
“I won’t.”

Her voice was naturally soft and charming, as if the man in front of her was a harbour where she could indulge in joy.

“Be good.”
Cui Wang’s inky-black eyes looked only at Zheng Wan, ignoring Ming Yu, who was in front of him.

Ming Yu clenched her fists.
“Li Wei, you guys—”

Zheng Wan tugged Cui Wang’s sleeve with one hand and tilted her head to complain, “Cui Wang, Ming Yu Zhenjun just tried to kill me.”

“She also said that I’m an ugly toad that’s pining for a swan. The moment I’m alone, she wants to kill me.”

“Nonsense!”

Ming Yu only felt that the Cui Wang in front of her was extremely foreign to her. Half of him was ice, and the sharp tips of ice were facing her— but the other half was water, and Zheng Wan was playing freely in that pool of water.

“It’s not nonsense.”
Zheng Wan puffed out her cheeks, “You wanted to hit me just now.”

“Cui Wang, remember this— if I accidentally get hurt or die in the future, it must be caused by Ming Yu Zhenjun. You must remember to avenge me.”

“Alright.”
Cui Wang raised his eyes and looked at Ming Yu.

The coldness in his eyes was something Ming Yu had never felt before. It was like snow that had been piled up for thousands of years, making one feel cold all over. She had never thought that Cui Wang would have such an attitude towards the person he liked.

He didn’t say a word, and his attitude was still indifferent, but there was clearly something hidden in that indifference.

He was actually willing to let her get close, and let that person tug his sleeve... Yet, despite having worked so hard for such a long time, she had never even gotten one foot within him before.

Zheng Wan felt that she was almost done lodging her complaint, so she threw another pack of explosives at Ming Yu, “Ming Yu Zhenjun, to tell you the truth, Liwei Zhenjun is actually my other lover.”

“Ssst—”
Her waist was given a hard pinch at the same time, but her expression remained unchanged, and she continued to boast outrageously, “Didn’t I say at the stall market the last time? There’s a powerful person who wants to force me to… with him…”

She bit her lips till they became red, and her cheeks also flushed at the right time, making her look like a shy little flower.

Zheng Wan didn’t say anything, yet she seemed to have said everything.

Mingyu understood it all at once. She looked at the both of them, as if she had suffered a huge blow.
“So, the strongman you were talking about is Li Wei?”

Zheng Wan nodded obediently.
“Yes.”

“That day, when Li Wei went to Xuan Yi Pavilion in a fit of rage, was it also for you?”

Cui Wang nodded.
“Yes.”

“The Heavenly Incandescent Robes were also given to you?”
Zheng Wan lifted her hand and flicked her infinity pouch, and a white dress emitting a faint luminous glow appeared in her hand. In the dim twilight, it was overflowing with light.

She also took Ah Wan and the jade pass out.
“Look, Ah Wan is also with me now.”

Didn’t Ming Yu like to act like she was the main wife? Then, she would let her have a taste of how the bad concubines in the mortal realm pissed the main wife off.

Zheng Wan felt that she had played the part very well.

Ming Yu’s face was ashen. She looked at Cui Wang with a painful gaze, “Li Wei, you’ve really let me down.”

“I thought you were like no other man in the world, but I never thought you’re just the same.”

Cui Wang’s eyes were cold, and he only nodded.
“Farewell.”

He wrapped one arm around Zheng Wan’s shoulder. Just as they were about to step through the door, he suddenly said, “My life is intertwined with Zheng Wan’s. If you ever do anything to her again, don’t blame me for disregarding the past.”

At that, the both of them disappeared through the door at the same time.

The red lacquered door closed slowly.
