Rebirth: Contract Husband Falls in Love with Me-Chapter 524 - 268: Shi Fengming Causes an Uproar

Shi Fengju said: "I simply cannot swallow this indignity. That wretched woman has such gall, daring to brazenly show up at our doorstep! I heard from Madam Qin that she even picked the flowers you like in the garden and quarreled with Madam Qin!"

Sang Wan hurriedly said: "Those are just trivial matters, let’s not talk about them! Seriously, what are you planning to do now? It’s not a solution to keep Second Young Master locked up like this!"

Shi Fengju snorted coldly: "What can be done? We’ll keep him locked up for a few days first! As for that wretched Su Qing’er, I really want to see what she’ll do when she’s driven into a corner. If she truly can remain devoted to the second brother, then she will have my respect!"

Sang Wan’s expression changed slightly and she inwardly felt shocked, knowing that while Shi Fengju was placing Shi Fengming under house arrest, he must have also made a move against Su Qing’er. She’s truly unlucky to have caught Shi Fengju’s attention!

"I still have some matters to attend to these next few days. You help me keep an eye on Second Brother and make sure he doesn’t escape," Shi Fengju said as he turned to her again.

Sang Wan nodded and smiled: "Don’t worry, I will take good care of him! It’s just that he’s been wronged."

"He needs to suffer a bit to learn to distinguish right from wrong!" Shi Fengju’s expression gradually softened.

Sang Wan then ordered a meal to be prepared and instructed Madam Qin, "Tell the kitchen to prepare a few dishes for Second Young Master. Don’t neglect him!" Madam Qin acknowledged and left.

After lunch, Shi Fengju went out again. Sang Wan saw him off, then stood in a daze on the veranda for a while before turning back to the house with a light sigh. 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝔀𝓮𝒃𝙣𝓸𝒗𝒆𝒍.𝙘𝒐𝒎

"Big Madam, Second Young Master didn’t touch any of the food sent over at noon, please look—" Madam Qin reported as she came in.

Sang Wan thought for a moment and then went over with Madam Qin.

Sang Wan asked Madam Qin to leave and approached alone. The doors and windows were tightly shut, and Shi Fengming sat inside with a gloomy face, not giving a single glance to the food box placed at the door.

"Second Young Master, you should at least eat something, why torture yourself?" Sang Wan said through the window lattice.

Shi Fengming looked up and saw her, immediately got up and walked towards her, "Big Sister-in-law, I beg you to help me, let me leave! Qing’er must be anxious by now, please help me! I, Shi Fengming, will forever remember your great kindness, I beg you!"

Sang Wan felt a mix of amusement and helplessness, "Second Young Master, don’t make it tough for me. How can I change what Fengju has decided? Please eat something, don’t mistreat yourself!"

Shi Fengming wouldn’t listen and insisted: "No, Big Sister-in-law, I can tell that Big Brother respects you a lot. If you let me go, he won’t bear to blame you! Big Brother is stubborn, but I believe you can change his mind! He argued with our uncle’s mother for who knows how long over Cousin Gu in the past, and still, he ended up marrying you, and now he treats you well all the same!"

Sang Wan did not expect him to suddenly bring this up and her expression darkened slightly, she spoke calmly: "Second Young Master, you flatter me too much! I am powerless in this situation!"

At this point, Sang Wan lost the desire to persuade him any further and was about to turn and leave.

A sudden "clang" of porcelain hitting the ground startled Sang Wan, and turning around, she saw a bowl of overturned rice on the floor, with Shi Fengming holding a sharp porcelain shard to his wrist, "Big Sister-in-law, let me go!"

Sang Wan’s face turned pale and she couldn’t help but cover her mouth with her hand.

Shi Fengming felt a surge of secret joy inside, but his expression remained ice cold, "Big Sister-in-law, Qing’er is a good girl, you’ve seen her yourself. I can’t be without her! If you let me go, I will be grateful to you, otherwise, I’ll die right before your eyes!"

Shi Fengming gritted his teeth and pressed the sharp shard firmly towards his wrist.

"Don’t!" Sang Wan cried out in alarm.

Shi Fengming then said: "Big Sister-in-law, let me go, please!"

Sang Wan exhaled slowly, gazed at him for a moment, and then slowly shook her head, "Second Young Master, you know what Fengju’s temper is like. He can be persuaded with a soft approach, not a hard one. Opposing him will get you nowhere. Even if you are in front of me, how likely do you think you are to succeed in your suicide? But by acting recklessly and injuring yourself, Fengju will only grow more angry with that girl. If you won’t think for yourself, shouldn’t you think for her? If Fengju wants to deal with her, it won’t be difficult at all!"

Shi Fengming’s face changed drastically and his hand trembled. The porcelain shard fell with a "clang," and he suddenly lunged forward, staring at Sang Wan: "How is Qing’er? What has Big Brother done to her!"

Sang Wan had not anticipated that her own hastily said words in desperation would provoke such a reaction from him, she was startled and instinctively stepped back, saying: "As long as you behave, I don’t think she will come to any harm! But if you provoke your Big Brother with your actions again, you know what the outcome will be without my having to say it!"
