Chapter 401

I don't know how long it took, Jiang Xiaoyan wiped away her tears and got up. She said coldly, "come on, fetch water, I want to wash."

She is Hu Futan's wife. Wang Ru is nothing. She wants to go back and beat Wang Ru severely.

Wang Ru is not a good woman. When she was in her teens, she was able to take all the wealth of the Hu family and abandon Hu Futan. Now that she is back, she can't have no purpose.

She wants to go back and uncover Wang Ru's face so that Hu Futan can see what kind of person Wang Ru is.

Jiang Xiaoyan combed her hair meticulously in the mirror. She inserted two precious stones into the delicate and luxurious Zhu hairpin and changed her clothes. There was no mistake before she went out of the other courtyard: "go back to the house."

It's already dark.

It was already late at night when Jiang Xiaoyan returned to the mansion. When she came, she had thought that she would press Wang Ru hard in her momentum, so that Wang Ru would be ashamed of herself in front of her.

She was domineering, and when the servants saw her, they all bowed their heads.

Salute respectfully: "madam is back."

In the main courtyard, Hu Futan sat by the bed, Wang Ru leaned on the pillow and listened to Hu Futan read.

Wang Ru was pale.

Hu Futan read paragraph after paragraph. He closed the book: "it's better now. The chicken soup is still warm. I'll serve it for you. You must drink some."

Wang Ru nodded, "well, I want my eldest brother to feed me."

Hu Futan smiled and took out a bowl of chicken soup: "you are injured now, and you can't even carry the bowl. Of course, I fed you."

Wang Ru smiled, "thank you, brother."

Hu Futan blew, and then fed it to Wang Ru's mouth: "you haven't changed at all."

In the past, Wang Ru loved to hear him read poetry and ancient books. She listened with interest. For a few hours, Hu Futan felt that the memory of his life had been ticked out.

He looked at Wang Ru's pale face and thought, no matter what, he must keep Wang Ru, and no one can stop him.

When he heard the voice of the servant girl saluting outside, Hu Futan was stunned.

"Madam is back."

The voice of the servant girl came into Hu Futan's ear, and also into Wang Ru's ear. Wang Ru showed a worried look, as if she was very afraid and uneasy: "brother, I..."

Hu Futan patted the back of Wang Ru's hand: "don't be afraid, I'm here."

Jiang Xiaoyan is the mistress. Jiang Xiaoyan doesn't like Wang Ru originally. It's normal for Wang Ru to be afraid of her. Jiang Xiaoyan is the master of the whole Hu house. Wang Ru can only rely on herself. If she doesn't rely on herself, who else can she rely on.

Hu Futan subconsciously protected Wang Ru.

Jiang Xiaoyan pushed the door open. She looked cold. Before she spoke, Hu Futan spoke first.

"Madam, I didn't mean to hide it from you. Xiao Ru is helpless. I'm also her brother. I can't ignore her."

Hu Futan said that, he saw Jiang Xiaoyan's face colder. He couldn't help frowning, looked at Jiang Xiaoyan more firmly, and silently conveyed the meaning of 'whether you answer or not, I will protect her'.

Wang Ru glanced timidly at Jiang Xiaoyan: "sister Xiaoyan."

Hu Futan seemed to hear Wang Ru's fear, and he turned to appease: "brother will protect you, don't be afraid."

Jiang Xiaoyan seemed to hear her heartbreaking voice. Her delicacy seemed to have become a joke. Before she said a word, Hu Futan began to guard against her.

Jiang Xiaoyan looked at Wang Ru. Her face was extremely cold. She saw pride in Wang Ru's timid expression. Jiang Xiaoyan squeezed her hand hard and said, "this is my bed."

Wang Ru leaned on her pillow, weak as if a gust of wind could blow down, but her eyes looked clearly provocative, as if she was saying, 'I'm sleeping in your bed, what's the matter'.

Jiang Xiaoyan's nails have been fiercely trapped in her palm, but she doesn't feel the pain. She doesn't know why Hu Futan can't see it. She looks at Hu Futan, and sees a vigilant look from Hu Futan's eyes. He is afraid that she will hurt Wang Ru. Is he always on guard against her?

Jiang Xiaoyan's heart ached.

Hu Futan swallowed his throat and said, "Xiao Ru was injured. I didn't pay attention for a moment before I brought her here."

Hu Futan couldn't help frowning. He wanted to have a good talk with Jiang Xiaoyan, but Jiang Xiaoyan didn't give him a chance. Seeing Jiang Xiaoyan so indifferent made Hu Futan very uncomfortable, as if he had done something wrong.

Hu Futan frowned and said, "you're not going to go for ten days and a half months. Why did you come back so soon?"

Hu Futan's rhetorical question, in Jiang Xiaoyan's view, turned into countless steel needles stabbing at her, stabbing her with holes and blood.

Jiang Xiaoyan looks at Wang Ru.

Wang Ru reached out and grabbed Hu Futan's sleeve: "brother, I'm much better. I'd better go first."

Hu Futan immediately looked worried: "your wound is so deep that the doctor said it's not suitable to walk. Besides, you're helpless now. Where can you go?"

Wang Ru bit her lips and said nothing.

Hu Futan looked at Jiang Xiaoyan. He frowned and said, "madam, I thought you were a reasonable person. After all, Xiao Ru grew up with me. I treat her as a sister. She is in trouble now. How can I ignore it as a brother?"

Jiang Xiaoyan looked at Hu Futan: "does the master mean that I am not tolerant enough?"

How can she be tolerant? Is it tolerant to ask her to give up her wife's position?

Wang Ru has entered the house, riding on her neck, how can Hu Futan not see it?

Still in his eyes, he never had his own position.

Jiang Xiaoyan was unwilling to admit it. She pulled the corners of her mouth and smiled, "what happened to Xiaoru's family? Where's your husband?"

Hu Futan frowned and felt a little uncomfortable. He had been ignoring a question and was asked by Jiang Xiaoyan. Hu Futan turned his head and looked at Wang Ru, feeling a little nervous.

Wang Ru's eyes turned red: "I'm the only one in my family now. I have no relatives..."

Hu Futan reached out and grabbed Wang Ru: "it's all right, there's big brother."

Hu Futan was distressed that Wang Ru had no relatives, but at the same time, he also breathed a sigh of relief.

Wang Ru leaned against Hu Futan and sobbed softly. She quietly raised the corner of her eyes and looked at Jiang Xiaoyan. Her eyes were aligned with Jiang Xiaoyan's, and she slightly hooked her lips.

Alas, it's really painstaking. There's no need to compare Jiang Xiaoyan and her. In Hu Futan's heart, it's always her most important.

Jiang Xiaoyan bit her lip. She was almost crazy. She wanted to say to Hu Futan that Wang Ru had a purpose. She was proud, provocative and showing off, but she couldn't say a word, because she was very clear in her heart.

Even if she said it, Hu Futan would not believe it.

Jiang Xiaoyan lowered her eyes and hid the injury in her heart. She said faintly, "since you want to stay, stay. If you are injured, take a good rest."

Hu Futan looked at Jiang Xiaoyan, as if he didn't believe that she would be so good. There was no joy on her face, and her voice was cold: "since madam said so, Xiao Ru will stay."
