The Evil Man’s Lazy Lady Chapter 46 (Part 1)
Chapter 46: Betrothed (1) Original translation is from tenderflower's blog.
For a while, it was Zhao Dalang’s hideous smile, and then it turned into Cheng Qingran’s worried handsome face. All kinds of messy scenes poured into her mind at the same time, and finally, the two of them hugged each other and kissed...
Shu Wan opened her eyes suddenly.
What caught her eyes was an unfamiliar bed, simple yet elegant. This was not their home nor her grandmother’s house.
So, was everything that happened before true?
Her tears streamed down uncontrollably.
“Mother, my sister is awake!” Shu Lan, who was standing guard beside the bed, shouted outside, throwing herself into her older sister’s arms with joy, “Sister, you have been sleeping for a long time!”
Looking at Shu Lan’s big, clean, and clear eyes, Shu Wan hugged her younger sister tightly. Almost, almost, she would never see her family again. If she was really ruined by Zhao Dalang, she would definitely not live.
Qin-shi, who was sitting outside talking to her husband, hurried in. She took Shu Wan’s shoulder, and comforted her softly: “Ah Wan, it’s alright, don’t worry, nothing happened, you’re fine!” The moment she knew her daughter was kidnapped, she remorsefully sobbed: “It’s all your mother’s fault. You shouldn’t be allowed to leave your mother’s side. If you have any accident, your mother will not be able to live!”
Shu Wan was full of fear, shame, and grievance. She knew it wasn’t her mother’s fault, but she didn’t have the heart to comfort her mother now, so she only hugged Qin-shi and sobbed: “Mother, I, although I didn’t fall into that person’s hands, but, but...” Thinking of the scene of her clinging to Cheng Qingran’s body in the carriage, she felt ashamed. She remembered clearly that she took the initiative to touch him and kiss him. Even if Cheng Qingran kissed her first, she also responded obediently... Even if she couldn’t help herself, her innocence was gone!
Qin-shi’s eyes darkened. She patted Shu Wan without speaking for a long time. Even though her husband had agreed to Cheng Qingran’s marriage proposal, her daughter was kidnapped first and then lost her mind because of medicine. Cheng Qingran had always been sincere to her daughter but that was easy to say. Once he had a new lover or had a gap with her daughter in the future, this matter would be a stain on her daughter, a stain that would make her unable to lift her head in the future.
However, Cheng Qingran had touched her body all over, so what if her daughter didn’t marry him?
She quietly wiped away her tears and looked at her little daughter who was crying because of fear. She raised her hand to dry the corners of Shu Lan’s eyes, and said softly: “Ah Lan, Mother has something to tell your sister alone, go outside to find Ah Lang!”
It was the first time Shu Lan saw her older sister cry so sad and helpless, which made her feel distressed. At this time, when she heard her mother’s gentle but undeniable tone, she instinctively realized her mother and her older sister had something important to say. Then she crawled out of bed obediently. She looked at her older sister buried in her mother’s arms, she took her hand uneasily and comforted her: “Sister, don’t cry, my father is outside, and won’t let them bully you again!”
Just now in the hall, she heard her father mention Zhao Dalang’s name with a cold face, knowing that Zhao Dalang bullied her older sister, but fortunately, her big brother rescued her.
Her soft childish voice with a strong sense of worry and affirmation was more reassuring than any other words. After crying for so long, Shu Wan also vented a lot of her grievances. At this time, when she heard the comfort of her younger sister who had always been ignorant, she wiped her eyes embarrassedly, and lowered her head to her younger sister with a weak but strong smile: “Go, Ah Lan, older sister is alright.”
Shu Lan gave an “Mm” and walked out in three steps.
The mother and daughter watched her leave. Qin-shi considered it for a while, and just wanted to speak when Shu Wan asked doubtfully: “Mother, where are we?” When Cheng Qingran hugged her in, she was already unconscious.
Qin-shi sighed, helped Shu Wan up, and touched her daughter’s pale face: “Ah Wan, did you know it was Master Cheng who came to our house to propose marriage yesterday?”
Shu Wan opened her mouth wide in surprise. The conditions of the two families were completely different. How could he like her?
Wait, was this the Cheng residence?
Thinking of the intimate scene between them, she asked incredulously: “Mother, you shouldn’t agree to him because of this?”
Before today, she only hated Cheng Qingran. Later, although Cheng Qingran didn’t completely violate her, he couldn’t be said to be a gentleman who could not be chaotic. Shu Wan had mixed feelings for him, both grateful and complaining. What was more, she didn’t want to see this person again because as soon as she saw him, she could think of how bad she was in his arms...
Qin-shi could hear the dissatisfaction in her daughter’s voice, but the matter was a foregone conclusion, and she could no longer hide it from her daughter: “Your father agreed. Don’t worry, your father agreed not only because of today’s events. Yesterday he came to propose, and we decided to refuse because we didn’t know his origin, but today he knelt in front of your father and vowed to marry you, vowed to be good to you for the rest of his life, and explained his background. We have no reason to refuse. Are you worried about his character? Silly child, listen to your mother. If he is lecherous, he will never be able to bear it in that situation... He didn’t ask someone for help because he was afraid it would hurt your reputation if it spread out!”
“But he...” Shu Wan instinctively wanted to tell how rude Cheng Qingran was to her younger sister. She looked up at Qin-shi’s helpless eyes and no longer had the intention to explain. She was like that with him. She was kissed and touched by him. What else could she do except marry him? Since both parents think he had no problem, what else could she say? Up to now, she didn’t understand why Cheng Qingran wanted to marry her. She could only hope that Cheng Qingran was not particularly bad in other aspects except for his lust.
“Mother, I’ll listen to you.”
