Becoming the Villain's Discarded Wife
Chapter 349: This person is not simple

Chapter 349: Chapter 349: This person is not simple

Shen Wenchen’s face was filled with joy, he even forgot to care for the sword in his hand; only the tip of his toes were lightly touched as he quickly advanced towards the incoming person.

Seeing one of the people ahead flying towards them, Lin Yicheng and Lin Ercheng glanced at each other and both held their weapons in front of their chests.

They were just waiting for the banditat to come and fight them to the death!

Seeing the incoming person about to rush to in front of them, the two brothers held their weapons and stood in front of Nanzhi and Aze to protect them.

When the person, however, got closer, the Lin brothers both wavered.

"Sis... Brother-in-law?"

Lin Ercheng exclaims in surprise. He had never expected to see Shen Wenchen here.

After Shen Wenchen left Yan City for Kyoto, they had been counting the days in their hearts.

After all, he had made a special trip to propose to their sister before he left, but the waiting had dragged on until mid-June. Now that he had returned, instead of heading straight back to the city, why did he come to Niutou Mountain?

"Big brother, Second brother." Shen Wencheng, looking travel-worn after journeying for so long, had an unshaven face, even his hair appeared somewhat oily and shiny.

He just hastily greeted the two brothers, but he charged straight towards Nanzhi who was behind them.

Nanzhi was stunned when she had glanced at the person and recognized him.

The man who often appeared in her dreams suddenly appeared before her eyes, and it made her somewhat incredulous.

"Nannan!" Shen Wenchen grinned, looking somewhat like a simple and honest child.

Liao Da and Aze, standing beside Nanzhi, were somewhat nervous when they saw a tall and robust man approaching them.

Aze even tightened his grip on the bow and arrow in his hand.

However, they heard the man, with a beard, calling their mistress’s given name with his voice full of joy.

"Wenchen?" Nanzhi widened her almond-shaped eyes and only believed him when he got off the horse and held her in his arms.

"You... you’re back?" Nanzhi stretched out her hand and touched the stubble on Shen Wenchen’s face, tracing his brows and eyes.

His wife’s small hand drawing something on his face felt somewhat itchy, but Shen Wenchen didn’t stop her, he just indulgently let her touch him.

Seeing that the two knew each other, Aze and Liao Da tactfully stepped aside, and only then dismounted from their horses.

Liao Da was somewhat puzzled. Looking at their mistress being so intimate with this man, could he be their mistress’s husband?

Even though there was a little child calling their mistress ’mamma’, she was only about eighteen years old, and the child was already more than five years old. He had always thought that the child was adopted since their mistress had always worn a maiden’s hairstyle and not a married woman’s.

But looking at it now, could he have guessed wrong?

Liao Da fell into deep thought.

"I’m back."

Nanzhi was a bit excited, but then she immediately remembered the serious matter of the day and quickly grabbed the sleeve of Shen Wenchen’s clothes and said, "Wenchen, Miaomiao has had an accident..."

"It’s okay now." Shen Wenchen extended his arm around Nanzhi and reassuringly patted her shoulder, "We happened to come across her just now, Miaomiao was a bit injured, but it’s nothing serious."

Nanzhi raised her head in surprise, her eyes somewhat blank.

"That... that’s a coincidence?"

Looking at Nanzhi’s stunned expression, Shen Wenchen couldn’t help it and stretched out his hand to rub her head.

"Shi’er came back with me, we were originally planning to first find an inn to clean ourselves up. But we happened to come across that carriage leaving the city, Shi’er said he felt uneasy, so we decided to have a look."

Nanzhi looked like a cute, stunned little beast, only staring blankly at Shen Wenchen, which made him stretch out his hand again to rub her head.

Shen Wenchen had practiced martial arts for years, his palms full of calluses. His rubbing messed up Nanzhi’s carefully combed hair quite a bit.

"Well, that’s... magical." Nanzhi didn’t get angry, she just sighed a bit.

When he encountered danger while escaping the famine, Shen Wenchen also had a heart palpitation and then took leave to look for them.

Could it be true telepathy?

Or was this what people call the sixth sense?

They walked towards the carriage, with only Liao Da and Aze trailing behind.

"Brother Liao Da, what are you thinking about?" Aze was somewhat curious as he saw Liao Da with a thoughtful expression on his face.

"I just think, our mistress’s background is probably not simple." Liao Da, leading the horse, nodded.

That man was tall and robust and he had a sense of righteousness, but it also seemed to carry a bit of killing intent. If the step he took toward them wasn’t light skill as legend had it, then what was it?

Although he was just a commoner, he had grown up in Yan City since he was a child.

He had seen people from all walks of life, and in his opinion, this man might be an official, and no matter how he looked at him, this man looked very similar to the city lord!

Liao Da was startled by his own guess, but Aze had already recognized Shi’er who was guarding the side of the carriage.

That person... looked somewhat similar to him...

Aze was a little dazed, but Shi’er didn’t pay any attention to them.

Confirming the safety of the surroundings, he only softly said to Shen Miaomiao: "Miaomiao, those coming are Sis’s people, don’t worry."

The little girl heard that Nanzhi was here, and the tears that had just stopped were about to flow down again. She stumbled out of the carriage, wanting to get off.

Seeing that she wanted to get off, Shi’er had no choice but to lift her from the carriage. This way, she wouldn’t bump into her wounds again.

Seeing the man who looked like him carrying Shen Miaomiao off the carriage, with the little girl offering no resistance, Aze felt as if something in his heart was shattered.

"Sister Nanzhi!"

The little girl looked miserable, making Nanzhi’s eyes turn red again.

"Miaomiao!"

Both young girls, their eyes red, ran towards each other.

Because she had fallen and hurt her leg, although it was not serious, Shen Miaomiao still walked somewhat slowly, she could only move step by step. For Liao Er, who had been sneakily hanging on the carriage beam, it was only a matter of head down distraction.

Liao Er, with good agility, rolled from the carriage beam, reached out his hand and went to grab Shen Miaomiao’s neck.

This damn girl!

Nanzhi cried out in alarm and then pushed Shen Miaomiao to one side.

Aze had already raised his hand, drew his bow and arrow, and shot it at Liao Er’s face.

In a flash, Shen Wenchen who had always been paying attention to Nanzhi, quickly moved his body and held the two girls who were about to fall on the ground. Shi’er had already turned his hand over, sword in hand, and stabbed Liao Er through.

Aze’s pupils suddenly contracted, he looked incredulously towards Shi’er who was charging towards Shen Miaomiao.

His... his movements, why... why are they so fast?

Liao Da and Lin brothers were looking at him with shocked faces.

Aze actually has this kind of ability?

They had just seen it clearly, Shi’er had stabbed Liao Er’s right chest with a sword. It was because of that blow that Liao Er’s body had tilted a bit and had not been shot in the face. Instead, the arrow grazed his face and flew off.

"Aze, you... you are awesome!"

Liao Da was a little excited, had it not been for their mistress’s brothers staring, he would have thought that he was seeing things!

He had not even reacted to what had just happened, and Aze had already released the arrow!

"No... it’s nothing."

Aze’s clothing on his back was already soaked with sweat, he stood there with a pale face.

However, Shen Wenchen looked at him with an inquisitive look.

This man, he was not simple.
