Do Not Offend the Reborn Wicked Wife

Chapter 807: A Man Must Take Responsibility!

Do you want to leave with me?

After asking this question, Yang Shiqi felt as if all his strength had been drained. He thought he had done his best, putting in all his effort. Now, it was up to fate.

Do your best, leave the rest to destiny.

He looked at her quietly, and she looked at him quietly as well.

In the silence, everything else was still!

After a long while, she said, "I... I can’t bear to leave my parents."

Yang Shiqi paused slightly, a trace of delight flashing in his eyes. What... what does this mean? Is it acceptance, but she’s worried about her parents? Or is it a tactful rejection?

"Then... what if we take your parents with us?"

He didn’t know what was wrong with him, why he would say such a laughably childish question. Not to mention that Wen Jingzhong and the others had their roots here, it was impossible for them to leave, and regarding Li Qingmu’s side... would he give him a good beating?

This really is taking the whole family!

A trace of disappointment flashed in Yang Shiqi’s eyes. So, this is... a gentle rejection?

His heart was pierced deeply, the pain unbearable!

Or, should he stay here? Then, should he have a chat with His Highness?

He... would agree, right?

Yang Shiqi was entangled in his thoughts, his heart troubled, his brows knotted.

The woman opposite him looked at him, suddenly chuckled: "Actually, I can ask my father!"

Yang Shiqi, lost in self-pity, was suddenly stunned and looked up at her, seeing the charming woman giving him a playful smile, sticking out her pink little tongue.

Yang Shiqi’s Adam’s apple moved, recalling those nights when he savored her fragrance, the taste really was...

His eyes warmed up for a moment but quickly returned to normal, he couldn’t let her see him in such an embarrassing state.

"I... I will ask my father!"

Princess Consort Jing blushed like a young girl, handed the child to the nurse beside her, and lifted her skirt, taking small steps away.

Yang Shiqi was bewildered, reaching out: "Hey, you..."

"Hmm?"

The woman turned around, looking at him with a smile yet not a smile.

"You don’t mind? I’m just a humble guard... no, actually I’m a secret agent for Dazhou..."

"Does it matter? I only know that you are my husband, the father of my child, that’s enough!"

"Really... really?"

Hearing the young woman’s response, Yang Shiqi felt his heartbeat speed up, incredibly moved inside.

This answer was truly heartwarming.

He is her husband, the father of her child, and that’s enough!

With such a virtuous wife, what more could a man ask for?

"Wait, I... I’ll go with you!"

Yang Shiqi felt he shouldn’t let her face these things alone, so he directly followed her, wanting to go through it together with her.

This is a man’s responsibility!

Main hall.

Wen Jingzhong was still resting.

His eyes were closed, his other hand was spinning two iron balls, one white and one black, resembling a Tai Chi symbol.

Yin and Yang, complementary and opposing.

"Father!"

Princess Consort Jing ran in, calling out crisply.

Wen Jingzhong slowly opened his eyes, looking at the two people who came in one after another, smiling slightly, but with some bitterness and reluctance in his smile, "Oh, my daughter, what’s the matter?"

"Father, I... I want to go with him. But I can’t stop worrying about you and Mother."

Princess Consort Jing slowly knelt down, raising her eyes, with watery eyes looking pitifully at Wen Jingzhong.

Wen Jingzhong sighed, "He... is he your man?"

"Yes!"

Wen Jingzhong looked at Yang Shiqi, "Can you be good to my daughter?"

Yang Shiqi originally thought Wen Jingzhong would give him a hard time, but unexpectedly, he just asked this, so he quickly said, "I will be good to her all my life, a lifetime!"

His words were simple, but his eyes were resolute.

Wen Jingzhong, being an experienced person, knew people well. He looked at Yang Shiqi’s appearance, knowing he was serious. As long as he entrusted his daughter to him, he would certainly take good care of her.

He nodded slightly, "Good! But..."

Seeing Yang Shiqi’s joyous and excited expression, Wen Jingzhong’s tone changed, squinting and smiling at him, "A man should have a sense of responsibility. In the future, if something happens, I hope you can stand in front of her."

Yang Shiqi knew this was his father-in-law’s admonition, the last instructions.

From then on, his daughter would be entrusted to him, and he... should treat her well, for a lifetime, never to leave!

He knelt down, kowtowed three times heavily, and vowed, "Father, rest assured, I... although I have no other skills, I can take good care of Princess Consort Jing!"

No other skills...

This was earnest talk, and Wen Jingzhong smiled.

He didn’t like those men full of fancy words, in the end turning out to be scum who mistreat women!

He would fight one if he saw one, definitely not entrust his daughter to such people.

Yang Shiqi, with an honest and simple demeanor, left a good impression on him.

"Good, you... stay for a meal with us, so everyone can gather together, okay?"

As soon as he said this, Princess Consort Jing’s eyes turned red, "Father..."

"Alright, alright, why cry, nothing lasts forever, separation is inevitable... Just follow him and live well. Your father and mother won’t be lonely with your brothers and sisters around."

"Hmm..."

"In the future, if you want to come back, you can always visit."

"Okay."

"So... let’s hold a feast, and not return drunk tonight!"

With Wen Jingzhong saying this, tonight was destined to be a sleepless night!

Princess Consort Jing drank some alcohol with Wen Jingzhong and his wife, and ended up a bit too sad and drank more. By the time she went back, she was already tipsy.

"Princess Consort Jing, be careful!"

Yang Shiqi supported her, limping back.

"I’m... call me Lan’er, I... my name is Lan’er..."

Princess Consort Jing’s voice was very light, but very pleasant, as she revealed her maiden name.

This was opening her heart!

Yang Shiqi felt touched, nodding, "Alright, Lan’er, be careful."

"Hmm!"

A man and a woman, supporting each other, slowly walking into the night...

Early the next morning.

Li Qingmu had already prepared the carriage, ready to take his wife, children, mother, and a little drag called you’er, back to Dazhou.

Everything was ready, they were just missing Yang Shiqi.

Zhang Liulang sat on the carriage board, looking at the distant Imperial City, frowning slightly: "Why hasn’t Yang Shiqi come yet? Could he be planning to stay here and become a live-in son-in-law?"

For a man to become a live-in son-in-law, isn’t that quite disgraceful?

Long Yue smiled, "No rush, let’s wait a little longer, maybe he’ll be here soon."

"But, it’s been quite long already!"

"Don’t worry, he will come. If he really wanted to be a live-in son-in-law, someone would have informed us last night, wouldn’t they?"

Zhang Liulang was a bit stunned and then looked ashamed, "Indeed, Princess Consort is smart, I... I..."

Zhang Liulang didn’t know how to praise Long Yue, as he wasn’t good at flattery, so he ran out of words.

Just when he was feeling extremely awkward, suddenly, in the distance, there was another carriage.

In front of the carriage, the one driving it was none other than Yang Shiqi, who else could it be?

Good lad, he succeeded, didn’t he?
