There Will Always Be Protagonists With Delusions Of Starting A Harem Chapter 74

Old Madam Shen thought he was angry and hurriedly said, “Don't worry Tingwei, I've already got rid of him for you! In the future, you can marry any young lady or master you like. I'll help you deal with that Chongxi marriage b.a.s.t.a.r.d. You can feel at ease and focus on recuperating. Your body is important."

The smile on Shen Tingwei's face disappeared. He looked at her indifferently, “Whichever young lady or master I want to marry, I can marry?”

“Of course!” Old Madam Shen seemed like she was blind and didn't notice her grandson's indifference at all. She only thought about herself as she excitedly and proudly said, “My Shen family's grandson is worthy of even Princess Junye! Don't worry, Tingwei. Grandma will help you choose someone that's worthy of you in every respect!"

“Don't bother.” Shen Tingwei looked away and waved to a momo, “Help the old Madam up. She's tired. She needs more rest these days. Don't let her see anyone anymore.”

The momo respectfully came forward to 'support' the old Madam, holding her tightly. Old Madam Shen could only pa.s.sively follow her to the main room, screaming as she walked away, “What are you trying to do, you disobedient servant? Let go of me! Tingwei, you must catch that Zou Lan, I want to properly punish him!"

Shen Tingwei, who already took a few steps outside turned back when he heard this, silently saying Zou Lan's name twice. He replied, “Grandma, didn't you say that any young lady or master I wanted to marry, I could marry? This Zou Lan is very good. I want to marry him." He left after saying this, leaving behind a courtyard full of servants and a dumbfounded Old Madam Shen who was frightened by his words.

“Ting…” Old Madam Shen was dumbfounded, and then flew into a rage, “That monster actually bewitched Tingwei! Someone! Go and catch Zou Lan! Grab him and burn him to death!”

The servants looked at each other, then thought about what Shen Tingwei said before, and n.o.body dared to move. Although the Lord and young master were not in the mansion for most of the year, they still knew who the real master was. The young master had already said those things about Zou Lan, they didn't dare to touch him again.

“Old Madam,” The old momo holding her gently wiped the back of her neck and said with a low and soft voice, “When you're this old, it's better to avoid this emotional excitement. It's time for you to rest for the afternoon."

Old Madam Shen's enraged expression froze, and she unexpectedly calmed down and followed the momo back into the room but with a rather stiff pace. The more perceptive servants observed this action and kept quiet out of fear. In their minds was a faint premonition that the Shen Family would change soon.

Walking along the road back to the garret, Ye Zhizhou threw the divorce letter into his s.p.a.ce. He climbed up the ladder and began packing up the luggage and what little silver the original owner saved. When he opened the chest in the corner, he suddenly remembered the original owner's dowry that was stolen by Old Madam Shen for “safekeeping” and rubbed his forehead to soothe his headache. How could he forget that when he went to get the divorce letter? What should he do now? Go back to find Old Madam Shen and get the dowry back? But right now his lover must be with her…

“You lived in this kind of place after you married into the family?”

The sudden voice behind Ye Zhizhou frightened him so much that his heart wanted to pop out. He slowly exhaled, turned around with a dark face and threw the clothes he was holding directly at the person coming in, “You really can't learn how to knock before you enter, huh? Yeah, yeah, I've been living in this kind of place since I married in. Your Shen family is very kind to me! ”

Shen Tingwei removed the thrown clothes that were on him, felt them and frowned, “You usually wear these?”

Ye Zhizhou's gaze fell onto the clothes in Shen Tingwei's hands. It was just an ordinary blue robe. He replied with confusion, “If I don't wear that, am I supposed to just wear a bedsheet when I go out? Oh, yeah, I don't have to go out at all, I'm Shen Family's precious caged canary." After saying this, he turned around in a huff and continued to take clothes out of the chest.

Shen Tingwei looked around the dimly lit garret, his eyes stopped on the thin bed momentarily before it fell onto Ye Zhizhou's frail back. Unable to stop himself, he reached forward to touch it, “How were the three daily meals served? Were they delivered by a servant?”

Ye Zhizhou rolled his eyes and shook off his hand. He pulled out a piece of wrapping cloth and began to clumsily pack his luggage. He didn't want to deal with Shen Tingwei.

“There is no one to serve you?” Shen Tingwei didn't mind his cold att.i.tude at all. Every time Ye Zhizhou set a piece of clothing onto the wrapping cloth, he would take one out. He also started to ask some personal questions with an honest face, “What normally happens when you bathe? Who brings you the bathwater? Who washes your underclothes?"

So angry!

“What do you mean?” Trying to pack his luggage resulted in the other taking out clothes faster than he could pack. Besides, it's not like he could win against him in a fight. He threw aside the wrapping cloth and raised his head to look at Shen Tingwei, but that caused him to become even angrier! In this life, the height difference between him and his lover was too excessive and cruel, it made him feel like he was already losing the quarrel!

"Why do you ask so many questions? If you want to know how I usually live, you should ask your Shen family servants, okay?” Running a hand through his hair, Ye Zhizhou sat down on a stool and took a deep breath, pressing down a baffling and unusual explosive temper. He earnestly asked, “What on earth are you trying to do, young General Shen? Don't tell me that your family's daughter-in-law can't take her dowry with her when she gets divorced?”

“You should address me as 'husband',” Shen Tingwei sat down in front of him and lifted the teapot that was on the table. He paused momentarily, frowned again and put it down, “The servants didn't prepare tea for you either?”

Ye Zhizhou sneered, “Tea? I didn't know your Shen family still had such a thing called tea. Don't you just have water? In fact, just cold water.” The original owner was a very naive and honest person, and because of that, he was bullied by the servants and masters of the Shen family like this. After going through the original owner's memory, he wanted to just burn the Shen house down!

Shen Tingwei's face became dark, and he got up again to look at the dowry chest. He continued to ask, “Is that all you have in your dowry? Is your family not treating you well?"

Sure enough, there are more questions!

"I had more in my dowry. Unfortunately, they were all taken by your grandmother. As for my family… I was forced to marry you as a subst.i.tute, a replacement. Do you understand that? Now, I just want to pack my things, go home and settle accounts with my family. Can young General Shen stop making trouble for me?"

“I'll help you,” Shen Tingwei turned to look at him, raised his hand and touched his hair, “I'll take care of you from now on, don't be afraid.”

Ye Zhizhou's bellyful of complaints about the Shen family dispersed. Suddenly, he felt the urge to throw himself into his lover's arms, cast away his dignity and act spoiled. But, when he remembered how the original owner was wronged, it would be extremely unfair to him. He avoided Shen Tingwei's hand with a serious look on his face and spoke after a moment of silence, “Give me back my entire dowry.”

“Ok,” Shen Tingwei withdrew his hand, dragged a stool over and sat down next to him and looked at him profoundly, “If you have any other requests, just say it”

Avoiding his line of sight, Ye Zhizhou got up to walk to the dowry chest and took out the dowry list that was buried at the bottom. He set it on the table, “Give me back everything on this list.” After he finished making trouble at the Zou family, he still has to travel all across the corners of the country to take care of the four male leads. Having no money would be a problem.

Shen Tingwei put the list away and said without blinking, “I'll double it for you.”

Ye Zhizhou choked. This scoundrel was truly generous. The Zou family's dowry was prepared for a di son, doubling it was simply frightening.

“Now that it's settled, I'll be going.” He abandoned the clothes and used the unoccupied s.p.a.ce to pack away the valuable jewelry and silver, then left straight away. Although he wanted to spend more time with his lover, the protagonist of the world was too enigmatic and he felt a little uncomfortable in his heart. So, getting into a relations.h.i.+p and what not can be handled another time. He already knows who his lover is anyway,

Shen Tingwei suddenly got up and hugged him from behind, his hands shamelessly touching him all over.

Instantly, the sadness he felt from his decision to temporarily separate vanished. Ye Zhizhou became angry and stomped on him, “Where do you think you're touching? You scoundrel, let me go! I didn't expect you to be such a person! I misjudged you!” He thought his lover in this world was an honest person, he absolutely didn't imagine that he was actually a stinky rogue!

In terms of strength, a ger couldn't even dream of beating a regular male. His struggle was totally ineffective. He was gently but forcefully caressed from top to bottom by Shen Tingwei and then groped from front to back until his body went soft and his cheeks became flushed, even his breathing was unstable.

The hands finally stopped at his hips and then slowly withdrew. Shen Tingwei frowned at him, and his eyes fell onto his collar.

Ye Zhizhou quickly lifted his hand, grabbed his collar and retreated, shy and angry. “You-you-you, what are you trying to do!” Simply touching him and not doing anything, lighting a fire in him but not extinguis.h.i.+ng it. Simply inhumane!

Shen Tingwei's gaze moved to his flushed cheeks again. His eyes flashed and he moved forward to hold Ye Zhizhou in his arms again. He lowered his head and blew into his ears, “Zou Lan, you don't hate my touch, do you?”

Ye Zhizhou's body s.h.i.+vered sensitively and then struggled with shame and indignation. In this world, ger can have children, so he firmly can't compromise! Absolutely not! Even, even if he was touched very well, it's out of the question! The hands that were on his back began to move restlessly again, and when the cold and strong voice became warm, it turned into an ambiguous s.e.xual voice. He felt a warm breath between his ears and his neck, making his waist feel numb and turning both his legs weak.

A ger's body seems to be more sensitive… He struggled with his feeble strength, his face blus.h.i.+ng and his head bowed against the other's shoulders. He grabbed his lover's collar weakly. I-if he really needed to…

Shen Tingwei seemed to be very satisfied with his reaction and his tone became lower and gentler. He softly touched Ye Zhizhou's back and whispered in his ear, “Zou Lan, tell me, where you hide the divorce letter?”

“Divorce letter?” Ye Zhizhou stared at him blankly and his struggle stopped completely.

Shen Tingwei kissed his small earlobe, a dim light flashed in his eyes, and he continued to coax him, “Yes, divorce letter, where did you put it?”

“Of course, it's in…”

“En?”

"In…"

"Xiao Lan?"

“In a place where you'll never find it!” Ye Zhizhou hatefully pushed him aside. After glaring at him, he turned and ran away. Despicable! Actually trying to use his looks seduce the letter out of him! So, the reason why the other person followed him back and asked all those questions was so he could take the divorce letter back? And that random groping… d.a.m.n it! He actually wasn't as attractive as a divorce letter!

The half-formed charming and devilish smile on Shen Tingwei's face froze, and his face once again sported a cold and stiff expression. He stepped forward to block Ye Zhizhou.

“Don't come over here! Otherwise, I'll jump off the platform!” The anger in Ye Zhizhou's heart went through the roof because he misunderstood Shen Tingwei's emotions. He intentionally stood on the edge of the garret platform, and pointed out angrily, “You don't even know my real name, and you dare to ask me where the divorce letter is? You are Xiao Lan, and your whole family is Xiao Lan!" After saying this, he quickly climbed down the ladder in 2 or 3 jumps and rushed out of the large door.

Shen Tingwei was shocked by his series of actions and tried to rush forward to protect him, but was stopped by a sudden pain in his abdomen. There was a taste of blood in his throat. Frowning deeply, he hesitated but abandoned the idea of pursuing. He recalled what the other had said and whistled to call his guard. After giving him a few orders, he leaned against the wall to wait until the pain eased a bit, before jumping down from the garret. He walked towards Old Madam Shen's courtyard.

Ye Zhizhou was livid as he walked out of the Shen mansion from the side door and directly stormed in the direction of the Zou mansion. The two mansions were a little far apart. He walked the entire way in a rage for about half an hour straight before he reached his destination. He only calmed down suddenly when he stood right in front of the door of the Zou Mansion. The protagonist should still be living happily in the countryside as Zou Ming. He wanted to expose the imposter's ident.i.ty and the best way to do this was through Yuan Hui. However, due to the replacement marriage situation, Zou Qing locked Yuan Hui up. Since he showed up now, he would likely be driven away by Zou Qing and Tao Dong, just like in the original plot. He probably won't even be able to see Yuan Hui's face.

… Still a little too impulsive.

He put down the hand that was ready to knock on the door. He ignored the stares of the pa.s.sers-by, walked into a side alley next to the Zou mansion and leaned against the wall while frowning. What should he do now? Sneak in after dark to see Yuan Hui? Right now, his ger body was just too weak, and the ancient courtyard wall was too high… It seems like he will need to use his spiritual power to knock them out again.

Suddenly, a shadow fell in front of him. With a suspicious feeling in his heart, he looked up. Sure enough, he saw the cold and handsome face of Shen Tingwei again.

“Why did you come here?” He lowered his head listlessly, poking the small mirror in his arms.

“Accompanying you to your parents' home.” When Shen Tingwei saw him like this his heart softened. He led him to a carriage parked at the entrance of the alley and stuffed a change of clothes into his arms. Then, he took out an ornament box, opened it to take out a hairpin made of blood coral, and compared it next to his head, “This was my mother's favorite set of ornaments, it suits you very well.”

Ye Zhizhou actually felt a little touched and started muttering, “I don't want you to accompany me, you divorced me already.” Yes, he's just being unreasonable! His lover was right in front of him, not being unreasonable would be a waste!

The Shen Tingwei, who was unsuccessful in stealing back the divorce letter, was silent for a moment. He set down the hairpin and brought Ye Zhizhou into his embrace, rubbing his messy hair, “Then I will marry you again. Last time doesn't count, I did not know of your existence then."

“If you say it doesn't count, then it doesn't count. If you say to remarry and then remarry, what kind of reputation would I have?” Ye Zhizhou arched out of his arms and touched the delicate lines on his clothes. His heart was already soft, but his mouth was still hard, “I don't want to wear hairpins. I am clearly a man.”

Shen Tingwei had a helpless smiling expression in his eyes. He set down the hairpin, gently let down Ye Zhizhou's hair and smoothed it with a comb. Then, he neatly tied it up and fastened it with a crown. When he retracted his hand, he even touched his earlobe and boasted with a cold att.i.tude, “You look good no matter how you dress.”

Even with this mediocre and ordinary-looking face, he's good looking… His face was full of disapproval but his heart was full of happiness. Ye Zhizhou let out a little snort. He boldly took off his outer robe and the robes underneath it and began to change clothes, forgetting the fact that this world's ger was very different from males.

Shen Tingwei silently put down the right leg that was raised in preparation to step off the carriage. He thought about it seriously and reduced his presence, gazing deeply at his wife who was changing clothes with his fingers rubbing unconsciously. It looked like he wanted to help him.

Five minutes later, the disgraced, abandoned husband became a n.o.ble young lord.

Shen Tingwei took out a jade pendant and hung it on him. Finally, he felt satisfied and jumped out of the carriage with him, despite his resistance.

The Zou Mansion's door was already open, Zou Qing was waiting at the door with Tao Dong. When he saw that the person who came down from the Shen family carriage was Shen Tingwei, he was stunned and stared blankly. Zou Qing greeted them with a dignified face and a "you want to fight, come anytime" kind of att.i.tude.

Shen Tingwei's att.i.tude wasn't very friendly. He raised his hand and gave him a greeting gift before he stiffly called out father-in-law.

Zou Qing's expression was stiff and Tao Dong, who was pretending to be a wallflower, was stunned silly. When the servants came to announce that they saw a carriage of the Shen family's parked at the door, they thought the Shen family had enough of the peaceful times and was ready to make trouble, but now…

Ye Zhizhou, who was totally ignored by them, made a low cough and stepped forward. First, he saluted Zou Qing, calling him father. Then, he looked at Tao Dong, nodded his head as a greeting, but did not open his mouth to call her.

Only after he did that did Zou Qing notice him, and after a short moment finally recognized him. He was shocked, “Lan-Er, why are you…”

“Lan-Er? You are Zou Lan?" Tao Dong couldn't help exclaiming. Seeing Zou Qing's frown, she quickly put on an expression of distress and concern. She took two steps forward and reached out to touch his face, sadly saying, “Lan-er, why are you thin…” As she said this she looked at the Shen Tingwei next to him, her eyes flashed with a light, “Also, why are you and General Shen…”

“Concubine Tao,” Shen Tingwei stepped forward and separated her hands, his eyes were cold, “Your nails are too long. Be more careful or else you'll hurt him.” After saying that, he looked at Zou Qing with dissatisfaction in his eyes, “Why does father-in-law bring a concubine to welcome guests? This is lacking manners."

Zou Qing was stumped by this question. Tao Dong's expression became cold, her eyes flashed with a trace of resentment.

Ye Zhizhou turned his head to give Shen Tingwei a profound look, giving him a thumbs-up in his heart, and furiously clapped his hands. This ability to pull hatred is too strong!
