Chapter 170
After a long while, the person sent to report came back.
"Lord Shen, please follow me."
Shen Yun'an's frown relaxed a little after hearing this.
"Did Xu Yuan agree to see me?"
The maid nodded.
Seeing this, Shen Yun'an's eyes were a little more sarcastic, and there was a little pride in his heart.
He knew that Xu Yuan couldn't let her go.
These women are really troublesome.
Shen Yun'an felt contemptuous and satisfied with his self-esteem. He thought that if he met Xu Yuan this time.
As long as Xu Yuan agreed, it would be better, and he would not care about the previous things.
He was still willing to give Xu Yuan a little more favor.
Led by the maid, Shen Yun'an came to the pavilion.
But when he looked around, he didn't see Xu Yuan in the pavilion.
"Where is Xu Yuan?"
Shen Yun'an asked immediately while being stunned.
"The lady said she would come later."
"Later?" Shen Yun'an felt even more angry, which meant that he had waited for so long in the Duke's Mansion, and Xu Yuan deliberately asked him to wait for her.
It would have been fine if he hadn't entered the mansion just now, but now that he was entering the mansion, he had specifically inquired before coming that Xu Jing was not in the mansion at the moment.
In this case, there was nothing that could stop Shen Yun'an.
Shen Yun'an's blood was boiling, and he decided to go directly to Xu Yuan's residence and ask about these things clearly.
"My Lord, where are you going?"
The maid saw that Shen Yun'an was going in the wrong direction and asked hurriedly.
Shen Yun'an wanted to find Xu Yuan for an explanation, so he
didn't have the mind to pay attention to the maid. But before he took a few steps, he saw several guards appear around him.
These guards stopped in front of Shen Yun'an.
"My Lord, please stop."
Seeing these people, Shen Yun'an had to stop.
He clenched his palms suddenly, and he knew without thinking that it was Xu Yuan's intention.
Xu Yuan, this vicious woman, was still so defensive against him. Could it be that she really did something to let him down? Now all these things are a manifestation of guilt. It's
simply shameless.
Xu Yuan happened to see this scene.
"All retreat." Xu Yuan said to the guards.
The guard bowed and left. When Xu Yuan looked up again, he met Shen Yun'an's angry eyes.
"Shen Yun'an, what are you doing here?"
Xu Yuan said slowly, almost ignoring the anger in his eyes.
"Xu Yuan, what's going on between you and the prince? I really didn't expect you to do such a thing."
"What is it?" Xu Yuan asked back, his tone full of sarcasm.
"Shen Yun'an, it seems that there is no relationship between us anymore."
"Even if I have a relationship with someone else, what right do you have to come here to question me?"
Shen Yun'an was furious, as if he didn't expect Xu Yuan to say such a thing.
"Xu Yuan, you just divorced me not long ago, and you are in a hurry to find another man. Are you so impatient?"
Slap.
Xu Yuan raised his hand and slapped Shen Yun'an.
Shen Yun'an obviously didn't expect Xu Yuan to suddenly attack, and his clenched fist made a creaking sound.
"Xu Yuan!"
"Shen Yun'an, you are really shameless."
"If there is something wrong with your brain, I suggest you go see a doctor first, but I think even the best doctor can't cure your current condition."
"This is the Duke's Mansion, not a place where you can act wild, not to mention that you are now a marquis with only status but no real power."
With his experience in his previous life, Xu Yuan knew best how to poke Shen Yun'an's heart.
After hearing what Xu Yuan said, Shen Yun'an's face flushed and his anger rose.
He wanted to get closer to Xu Yuan, but saw the guards just now appear again.
The presence of these people seemed to tell Shen Yun'an that if he dared to do something to Xu Yuan at this time,
they would attack without hesitation.
Shen Yun'an also understood that this was the Duke's Mansion, even if Xu Jing was not in the mansion now.
But Xu Yuan's current attitude, plus the fact that he and Xu Yuan had indeed divorced, it was impossible to use the past to control her.
In this case, Shen Yun'an suddenly thought of the child.
The child who was swapped, his and Rou'er's child.
Shen Yun'an was silent for a moment, then spoke to Xu Yuan, "Xu Yuan, I know you are unhappy, but when you slapped me, did you ever think about the consequences?"
"You deserve it." Xu Yuan answered mercilessly.
"Shen Yun'an, make sure you understand your attitude before you speak next time."
"Xu Yuan, if I hadn't thought about our past as husband and wife, why would I have come to remind you."
Shen Yun'an gritted his teeth and said, pretending to be doing good for Xu Yuan.
"Who is the eldest prince? If you really have dealings with him, aren't you afraid of getting involved with the Duke's Mansion?"
"Besides, do you think he would like you, a married man?"
"Don't forget Yi'er. Do you think anyone else can accept him besides me?"
Xu Yuan sneered. It seems that the slap she just gave was too light.
Shen Yun'an doesn't think he can still influence others.
"Shen Yun'an, what qualifications do you have to mention Yi'er?"
Xu Yuan said in a cold voice, "You don't mean to say that you came here to see Yi'er?"
Shen Yun'an snorted coldly, "I am Yi'er's father after all. Even if we are divorced, as a father, don't I have the qualifications to see my own child?"
"Are you sure you are Yi'er's father?"
Xu Yuan's words made Shen Yun'an's face change.
He frowned, staring at Xu Yuan, and inexplicably had a bad premonition in his heart.
For a moment, he felt that Xu Yuan knew something.
Shen Yun'an said to Xu Yuan again, with a tentative voice, and he didn't want to be at a disadvantage, "Xu Yuan, explain what you just said. What do you mean by I am sure you are Yi'er's father?"
Xu Yuan clicked his tongue.
"Don't you already have the answer in your heart?"
"Shen Yun'an, do you really think what you did is perfect?"
"It's really ridiculous."
"Xu Yuan! What did you say!" Shen Yun'an was very excited and wanted to grab Xu Yuan's wrist.
He felt even more scared in his heart. He didn't know whether Xu Yuan knew everything or knew about what happened that night.
No matter which one it was, Shen Yun'an felt something was wrong.
However, before Shen Yun'an could get close to Xu Yuan, he was stopped by the guards.
"Lord Shen, if you continue like this we will ask you to leave."
The leading guard said to Shen Yun'an.
"Xu Yuan, give me an explanation."
Seeing Xu Yuan about to leave and being stopped by the guards, Shen Yun'an almost roared.
"What is there to explain, Shen Yun'an, put away your condescending attitude and don't think you are indispensable."
"You are trash to me."
Xu Yuan's tone did not hide his contempt for Shen Yun'an.
"As for what I know, don't you know what you have done, or do you want to confront the emperor?"
"Confront... confront?" Shen Yun'an's heart trembled. Xu Yuan seemed to know more than he thought.
