Chapter 271 - 279: Too Many Suspicions



“Really?” Su Wenyue raised her eyebrows, unconvinced of the story’s veracity. Li Bonian wouldn’t be that stupid, would he? To actually go seeking death in the prefecture, a place notorious for its deep waters. Even if he stirred up trouble there, his relative, Master Li Baihu, might not be able to save him.

“Madam, your servant has confirmed it. It’s true. At this moment, Master Li has already been carried back from the prefecture. When he entered Li Mansion, he was being carried in on a stretcher, and many people saw it,” Aunt Li said with a smile. She wasn’t usually one to gossip, but when it concerned Madam, and it was something that could let Madam blow off some steam, she naturally made sure to get the details.

“So it’s true. Poor Li Bonian. That Young Master must be quite a character, probably has some background too. But, this method with the sack sounds so familiar.”

Although there were reasons for the incident, and it happened in the prefecture, Su Wenyue couldn’t help but feel that it had something to do with Han Yu. Could it be because the method of revenge was exactly what she had mentioned the other day? Was she being too suspicious?

“Madam, what’s wrong?” Seeing that Su Wenyue didn’t react with the glee she had expected after hearing the news and instead seemed pensive, Aunt Li worried something was amiss and asked out of concern.

“Nothing much, I’m delighted. Li Bonian is a bad egg, and he got what he deserved. I only hate that I didn’t find out sooner, or else I could have also gone to watch the spectacle of Li Bonian lying on the stretcher looking like a beaten pig.” Su Wenyue came back to her senses and laughed as she spoke. As for the suspicions in her mind, she kept them to herself, still not sure about them, and of course did not share them with Aunt Li.

“This time Li Bonian really took a fall. But that Young Master, he’s bold enough. Doesn’t he fear retaliation for using such heavy-handed tactics? He’s definitely got some powerful backing, or maybe Li Bonian had offended too many people, and someone used this Young Master’s name to handle him. Husband, what do you think?”

That evening when Han Yu returned, Su Wenyue told him about the incident and watched his face for reactions. Unfortunately, she couldn’t see anything out of the ordinary, so she asked him outright.

Han Yu saw right through his Wife’s probing gaze. He found it somewhat amusing. The gap in their intellect—if he didn’t want to show it, she could look all she wanted and still not discover anything. She even tried to trap him with her words, but her scheming was too light to be of note to him.

“If you want to know something, you can just ask directly. There’s no need to stare at me like that, and don’t try to be cunning with me.” Han Yu looked at Su Wenyue with an amused expression, bluntly puncturing her little schemes.

Su Wenyue was slightly embarrassed: “Heh, you noticed, huh?”

Han Yu imitated Su Wenyue’s laugh twice before speaking: “You were staring at me without even blinking. If I hadn’t noticed, I’d be a fool.”

“So, tell me, did you have anything to do with what happened to Li Bonian?” Su Wenyue, having been caught out, wasn’t embarrassed but instead became straightforward, even poking Han Yu, which had become a habitual gesture for her.

“What do you think? For you, when I planned this trap, I specifically kept it so crude and simple that it took extra effort. Wife, after hearing the outcome, do you feel avenged?” Han Yu didn’t beat around the bush and admitted it outright.

Originally, Han Yu had not planned to move against Li Bonian so soon. Although Li Bonian was a repugnant man who liked to play little tricks, he was not worth fearing. However, the power behind Li Bonian was quite mysterious, and he had wanted to follow the thread through Li Bonian to understand it clearly. But Li Bonian courted death and dared to target his Wife, which Han Yu could not tolerate. Therefore, he took action ahead of time, teaching Li Bonian a small lesson. As for that mysterious force, it wasn’t as hidden as imagined. As long as he was careful, there were clues to follow, but without going through Li Bonian, it would be more arduous, nothing more.

“Of course, I feel avenged. I only regret not being able to beat him up myself. Nevertheless, hearing how terribly Li Bonian was treated brings me joy.” Amidst speaking, Su Wenyue’s eyes suddenly lit up as she looked at Han Yu.

“Husband, would you teach me Kung Fu, please? That way, I could handle things myself.” Su Wenyue said excitedly, secretly thinking that beating up someone could be rather dashing.

Han Yu saw his Wife going from one fancy to another, now even wanting to learn martial arts. His eyelid twitched, and he held his Wife’s soft hand: “Such people are not worth your effort, and you shouldn’t dirty your hands. Besides, learning martial arts isn’t done overnight, and it’s particularly taxing. It’s not something for you, my Wife.”

“Why not? Don’t underestimate me; I’m not one to shy away from hardship!” Su Wenyue insisted defiantly.

“I know you can handle hardship, my Wife, but I can’t bear to let you. Let’s not discuss this any longer. Let’s talk about something more important.” Han Yu knew well his delicate Wife, who even feared pain during intimate moments, let alone practicing martial arts. He steered the conversation away from the topic and onto something else.

“What important thing?” With Han Yu mentioning important matters, Su Wenyue’s attention was indeed diverted, thinking there might be complications with the handling of Li Bonian’s case that caused trouble. Other than that, she couldn’t think of anything else at the moment.

“I’ve taken care of Li Bonian for you. How are you going to thank me, my Wife? This is what you need to consider most right now. Do you plan to repay me with your body, or devote yourself wholeheartedly?”

Seeing Han Yu’s frivolous demeanor, Su Wenyue knew he wasn’t talking about any important matter: “You’re insufferable, talking about serious matters and then teasing me!”

“How is it not a serious matter? We should repay kindness with kindness, isn’t that what you always say? I helped you get revenge on Li Bonian. Shouldn’t you reward me?” Han Yu said matter-of-factly, as if it made perfect sense.

Su Wenyue saw Han Yu acting this way and rolled her eyes, knowing she couldn’t let the matter go without humoring him somewhat. She hastily planted a quick kiss on Han Yu’s cheek, but once in the wolf’s lair, the lamb had no chance of escape. Han Yu swept her into his arms with one quick motion.

“I can’t take it anymore, no more.” After a round of intense intimacy, Su Wenyue pleaded for relief.

“Be good, just one more time, just once more, bear with it a little.”

“You delicate little thing, and yet you want to learn martial arts? You don’t even have that much stamina.”

“No more, please…”
