Chapter 92: Chapter 92 Such a Jealous Woman, How Can She Make a Good Match

The doctor looked at the bell, feeling his cheek burn and throb from the slap.

This maidservant had a truly wicked heart and a ruthless hand. If the slap had really hit this girl, who knows what would have happened.

He had been poisoned by the girl, and just blocked a blow, hoping to garner some goodwill so she would quickly give him the antidote.

Thinking of this, the doctor said coldly, "The two of you, mistress and servant, are quite amusing. Everyone has said the Young Marquis needs rest, and yet you, playing the lady, insist on barging in. A girl yet to be married exhibiting such shamelessness, you’re simply disgracing your father!"

Wang Keren felt venomous upon being condemned in such a manner, but she quickly concealed it with a grief-stricken expression and said, "The Young Marquis is my lifesaver, and he got hurt because of me, that’s why I’m a bit overwhelmed with worry. Just now, Ling Dang startled Miss Yan, and here Wang Keren apologizes to Miss Yan." Saying so, Wang Keren gave Yan Lingzhen a bow.

Yan Lingzhen, feeling overwhelmed with drowsiness, listened to her deliberately pinch-tone voice and felt nothing but disgust.

"Enough, enough, all of you leave." She waved her hand dismissively, too weary to argue with them.

Originally, Yan Lingzhen had wanted to find another place to sleep, but seeing the Wang family daughter’s unrelenting scheming, she pushed the door open and went inside again.

Today, she would have to make do and share a bed with Huai Yu.

Watching Yan Lingzhen enter, Wang Keren frowned, "What is Miss Yan doing?"

"It’s none of your business." She spoke and was about to close the door, but Wang Keren wouldn’t have it. If she couldn’t go in to see the Young Marquis, why should this little wench be allowed in?

Ling Dang saw her mistress stepping forward, hurriedly got up from the ground, and also pushed on the door.

"Although you’re still young, in a few years you will also come of age. It’s not proper for a man and a woman to share a room alone, Miss Yan should still come out," Wang Keren said.

Yan Lingzhen could tell from her expression exactly what kind of filthy thoughts she harbored. Seeing the mistress and servant both pushing the door, Yan Lingzhen felt anger boiling up inside her.

"The Young Marquis is my brother-in-law, and since my sister cannot take care of him, what’s wrong with me doing so? Miss Wang, is your head filled with nothing but romantic nonsense? Laughable, just get your hands off the door!"

"Having one more person here would also make it easier to lend a hand," Wang Keren insisted, with one foot inside the door, refusing to back out.

Yan Lingzhen, having traveled all day and night, and after treating Huai Yu for so long, now faced these unreasonable master and servant, she simply let go of the door handle.

No good, too exhausted.

Deal with the poisoning later.

Just as her hand reached into her sleeve, she saw the maidservant Ling Dang suddenly press toward her, closely followed by Wang Keren sidling into the room.

Yan Lingzhen’s brows furrowed tightly, her eyes growing colder.

This Miss Wang from the Wang family was truly courting death!

"Stop!" Yan Lingzhen called out sharply.

Wang Keren seemed not to hear and continued walking further inside.

"Take one more step, and you will be responsible for the consequences." A cold voice came from the doorway. Wang Keren recognized the voice’s owner and immediately stood still.

Wanqing, changed into a fresh set of clothes, stood at the doorway, her face expressionless.

Wang Keren turned and bowed to Wanqing.

Wanqing looked at her kneeling on the ground, showing no intention of letting her get up, her eyes filled with mockery, "Miss Wang, sneaking into the Commandery Princess’s betrothed’s room in the dead of night, what is your intent?"

Wang Keren trembled all over, tears quickly welling up in her eyes, "Commandery Princess... I had no such intention. I was merely worried about the Young Marquis’s injury."

"Worried about his injury?" Wanqing laughed lightly, stepped forward, and stood in front of Wang Keren. "Who are you? By what right do you concern yourself with the Commandery Princess’s betrothed’s injury?"

"Exactly, truly shameless," Wan Lingzhen regained her little girl demeanor as her sister arrived, clinging to her sister’s clothes and leaning close.

Yan Wanqing soothed Wan Lingzhen’s little head with one hand, her gaze still fixed on the trembling Wang Keren, "With the esteemed Master Wang serving as a senior officer in the Ministry of Rites, how could he have raised a daughter like you? The Commandery Princess is deeply chilled."

These words were extremely heavy, and Wang Keren, who was always deep in thought, turned deathly pale upon hearing them.

She realized she had been too impulsive today; she thought that since Princess Anping had been in good spirits during the day and was not around just now, she recklessly made her move. Yet who could’ve expected that Princess Anping would return and witness her behavior? If she caused trouble for her father because of this, he would surely kill her.

"Commandery Princess, please forgive me, I am guilty," Wang Keren pleaded lowly from the ground.

Ling Dang saw her mistress begging from the ground and quickly followed suit, kneeling down, "It’s all this servant’s fault, Commandery Princess. If punishment is due, let it fall on this servant, it has nothing to do with our young mistress."

"It’s got everything to do with being haunted," Wan Lingzhen, exhausted, leaned on Yan Wanqing and could not help but retort upon hearing this, "Just now when you stopped me, it was to let your young mistress enter the room."

Yan Wanqing patted her head, signaling her to continue sleeping, and Wan Lingzhen found a comfortable position, reveling in the scent of her sister, feeling utterly at ease.

Witnessing the mistress and servant before her, Yan Wanqing’s eyes flashed with irritation, "Leave, all of you. Don’t stay here and disturb the Marquis as he recovers."

Once she finished speaking, she took Wan Lingzhen and left. Behind them, Ling Dang helped Wang Keren up, "Miss."

Wang Keren looked unwillingly toward the inner chamber.

Really wanting to take just one glance...

She clenched her fists, "Let’s go."

As the group left, Yan Wanqing entrusted Wan Lingzhen to Cong Ge, who bent down to lift the sleeping Xiaoliu into his arms. Xiaoliu found a comfortable position in Cong Ge’s embrace and fell into a deep sleep, and if you listened carefully, you could still hear her soft snores.

She must be truly exhausted.

Sympathy filled Yan Wanqing’s heart.

"Let’s first take Xiaoliu to sleep," Yan Wanqing said softly to Cong Ge.

Cong Ge carried Wan Lingzhen away.

Only after everyone left did Yan Wanqing snap back to reality and looked at the master and servant from the Wang Family.

"Commandery Princess, please forgive me; I truly had no other intentions, I wouldn’t dare," Wang Keren said tearfully to Yan Wanqing.

Yan Wanqing didn’t say a word.

Seeing this, Wang Keren added, "I am only grateful for the Young Marquis’s life-saving grace, concerned out of deep sentiment. The Commandery Princess must understand such feelings, right?"

"I don’t," Yan Wanqing replied coldly. If Wang Keren had barged into the inner chamber just now, the secret Huai Yu was guarding as if more precious than life itself would have been exposed to the world, and killing her would not be enough to quell the anger!

Seeing Wang Keren in this state, Yan Wanqing sneered, "The Commandery Princess will inform your mother of this matter. Hopefully, Miss Wang will restrain herself a little better in the future and not go running into the houses of other people’s fiancés in the middle of the night, losing all sense of propriety."

Wang Keren went ash-grey, her body swaying as if about to collapse; if it weren’t for Ling Dang’s support, she might have crumbled to the ground already.

Yan Wanqing beckoned with a meaningful gesture, "Come, fence off the courtyard; let no idle people enter."

The family’s servants and maids came with torches, lighting up the entire courtyard. Yan Wanqing no longer looked at the two and departed.

Wang Keren bit her lower lip, her eyes filled with malice.

"...Such a jealous woman, how can she be a good match, she’s utterly unworthy of him!"
