Si Zhong knew that their attempt to ruin Shen Li had failed. If anything, it had even backfired. He was furious and turned to attack Si Yan.

Since he couldn’t destroy this marriage, he couldn’t let them have a good time either!

Si Zhong thought this in his heart, but on the surface, he acted like they were good brothers.

He glanced at the shabby garden and discussed it with Si Yan.

“Don’t listen to Father. Brothers should help each other. You’re still young and don’t know how complicated affairs such as marriages can get.

“I still have some things in my warehouse. I don’t mind it. Feel free to use them.

“As for this house of yours… Well, it’s fine to live on your own, but it’s a little too shabby to house a wife. You should move in to our residence. At least we will be around to support you.”

Si Yan had long grown used to Si Zhong’s hypocritical behavior, but he really wanted to tear off his mask.

Charity?

This was the last thing he, Si Yan, needed!

Si Yan couldn’t even be bothered to respond. He wheeled himself out.

“Keep it for yourself. If you think you have too much money to use, you might as well go to the temple and donate some to the poor.”

Si Zhong laughed coldly. He was already in such a sorry state. Why was he still acting all high and mighty? He could not wait to see that man being humiliated on his wedding day.

…

Si Zhong returned to the manor with a dark expression. When he entered the house, he saw Li Qingyan busy embroidering.

When they first got married, Li Qingyan liked to sew things for Si Zhong, from clothes and cloaks to small things like pouches, sachets, and waist seals.

However, Si Zhong didn’t love her. Of course, he would show no more love for the things she embroidered.

In the beginning, he pretended to like it, but after a long time, he got too lazy to deal with it and simply gave them away.

After that, Si Zhong finally felt at peace.

When Li Qingyan picked up the embroidery needle again, Si Zhong casually asked, “What are you doing?”

Li Qingyan raised her head. She was surprised that Si Zhong would take the initiative to talk to her. Usually, after he came back, he would either be in the study dealing with official business or asleep. He rarely took the initiative to talk.

Li Qingyan explained herself methodically, but she was secretly happy. She showed Si Zhong the basket.

“Si Yan is about to get married, and as his sister-in-law, I have to prepare some gifts for my sister-in-law.

“I don’t have much else going for me other than my embroidery. This is as much as I can…”

Before she could finish her sentence, Si Zhong suddenly grabbed the things in Li Qingyan’s hands and fidgeted with them.

He grabbed Li Qingyan’s arm and reprimanded her.

“Who asked you to prepare these things? Do you even consider yourself my wife…?”

As he spoke, he pinched Li Qingyan’s chin and forced her to look at him.

“Since you’re so good to him, you might as well go to his residence and serve him.”

Li Qingyan’s eyes were filled with tears as she explained herself with trembling lips, “Husband, don’t say that. I’m only treating him as a junior. You’re brothers, and I’m also…”

As she spoke, Li Qingyan noticed that Si Zhong’s expression was getting uglier and uglier. She stopped talking and fought back her tears.

“My dear husband. If you don’t like it, I won’t do it.”

Si Zhong’s expression softened a little after he heard that. He let go of Li Qingyan’s chin and wiped away the tears at the corner of her eyes with his fingertips.

“That’s right. Didn’t I tell you before? You simply have to be obedient.”

Seeing that he was no longer angry, Li Qingyan’s heart that had been in her throat finally settled down. However, in the next second, her world turned upside down.

“Bang!”

Before Li Qingyan could scream, Si Zhong lifted her up and threw her onto the ground.

Si Zhong mercilessly tore her clothes apart and his large hands wandered around.

Li Qingyan covered her mouth and did not dare to move.

Just as she felt the breathing in front of her getting faster and faster, Si Zhong’s emotionless voice suddenly rang in her ears.

“Turn around and get on your knees!”
