Chapter 19 - Divorce

"Sister-in-law? What are you doing here?" Meng Chang smile happily and greets her. 

"Where's my husband!?" Liao Ling asked angrily. 

"Sigh~I was too late." Meng Chang starts shedding tears. 

"W-what happened!? Is he okay???" Liao Ling held her clothes, her eyes about to be watery. 

"I had gotten word that a Assassin was out to kill 7th brother, I almost didn't make it in time. Thankfully, Mei'er protected him! Thank the gods he survived! I already lost my 3rd brother and my father! I can't bear to lose any one else I care about!"

Then he stopped and hesitantly said, "but...Aiyaaah...."

He shakes his head in regret.

"Whats wrong now!?"

"H-h-his legs. His legs were cut! I don't think he'll be able to walk again."

"W-what, P-please, you have to take me to him, PLEASE!" Tears welled up in her eyes, from anger, worry, and now she begging Meng Chang to see her husband. 

"I've already taken him to a safe spot. I have my men protecting him at all times! Let's go Sister-in-law!"

They got on the carriage past the woods was a bamboo house. 

'Please be safe, please be safe.'

*Twing*

She looked out the window of the carriage as soon as she heard music of the guqin. 

Without waiting for the carriage to stop, she ran as quickly as she could to the door. 

There were guards on the outside of the walls standing and protecting it from any harm. 

She glance inside and saw Meng Yu playing the Guqin in the middle. 

She rush to his side and hugged him. 

*cough*

"S-sorry, I-I was so worried that you were in danger!" 

Liao Ling Wiped her tears from her cheeks and forced a laugh. 

Then she saw his legs which were crossed. 

"D-does it hurt?"

"I can't feel anything anymore, but otherwise it's fine."

Meng Yu smiled and rubbed her head. 

"sniff, d-don't worry, with me here, I-I can carry you and take care of you still, hahaha!"

Meng Yu smiled again. 

'Even now, your trying to keep my spirits up. Thank you.'

"7th brother and Sister-in-law really love each other!"

Meng Chang smiled and clapped. 

"Thank you for saving him! I'm sorry for before. I used to think that you were-"

Liao Ling misspoke. 

"Were what?" but of course now she got his curiosity. 

"Were....too egotistical." She scratched the back of her head and smiled. 

"D-don't worry about it s-sister-in-law! HAHAHA it's so funny! HAHAHA!"

Meng Chang laughed even while leaving, and they could hear it from the inside. 

....

Meng Chang face now showed no hint of happiness. 

"Your majesty, is leaving them alone together a good idea?" The maid now appeared by his side again, this time not dressed in a maid outfit, but a luxurious red light district outfit. 

"Don't worry, they won't do anything. This brother of mine cares too much about others. He won't dare offend me again. After all, I have his weakness."

...

"Ling'er." Meng Yu held her by the shoulders with a smile. 

"W-what is it, husband?" She starts blushing.

'I-I'm not ready for this!!!'

"Lets....get a divorce."
