"The Warbling of the Oriole" - Chapter 191

She and Sizhen stayed by Xu Huaichun's bedside, listening to Xu Huaichun cry out that Cen Yunzhou had fallen down the mountain path with her in his arms, and had deliberately protected her. The two tumbled down the slope, and Cen Yunzhou accidentally hit a protruding rock corner, bleeding profusely. An old tree stump stopped them from rolling any further.
She was furious, shocked, and jealous. Xu Huaichun only had a sprained leg, while Cen Yunzhou was unconscious.
She stopped looking at her elder brother and An Ruying and focused on having breakfast.
Qi Shixiang was the one who wasn't paying attention to his meal. He feared he had misunderstood the relationship between his elder brother and Ruying. His brother's open care for her couldn't be as simple as just taking responsibility. He thought of returning to the Duke's mansion to find Ruying and ask her politely what was going on between her and her elder brother. However, he hadn't seen Ruying for five or six days in a row, so he pulled Sizhen aside and asked her.
Sizhen said, "Third brother, do you not know? Sister Ruying went to the Cen residence. Young Master Cen has not yet woken up, and she has been staying with Madam Cen."
Qi Shixiang muttered, "He hasn't come back for so long, and he didn't even tell me."
Sizhen felt ashamed, thinking to herself that since the Duke's mansion was not Ruying's home, and you were not Ruying's family, the marriage between Young Master Cen and Ruying was still in effect, and Madam Cen treated Ruying as half a daughter. It would be fine for Ruying to spend a few more days with Madam Cen.
However, knowing her third brother's temperament, she said, "She will probably have to wait until Young Master Cen wakes up before she can return to the Duke's mansion."
Unable to see her, he was quite anxious. Taking advantage of his day off, he rode in the Duke's carriage to the Cen residence and sent an old woman to her door under the pretense of delivering something to her. He then summoned her out.
Ru Ying was quite surprised that no one from the Duke's mansion sent her anything. She only realized it was Qi Shixiang when she entered the carriage in the alley outside the mansion.
Ru Ying asked in surprise, "Why are you here?"
Qi Shixiang said, "You still dare to talk?"
He noticed that her once rosy cheeks had become thinner, and her chin was somewhat pointed. She looked at him with a puzzled expression, and the words of reproach were on the tip of his tongue, but he couldn't bring himself to say them. He said, "You only remember your brother Yunzhou and have completely forgotten about me. You were going to stay at the Cen residence for a while, but you didn't even tell me. When I went to my grandmother's, I could never find you."
She lowered her head, unsure how to explain it to him.
She was kidnapped yesterday, barely escaping with her life. Yunzhou, who was perfectly fine, now lies motionless on the bed, not knowing when she will wake up. She suddenly felt a sense of the impermanence of life.
She originally planned to stay with Cen Shi and wait with her for Yun Zhou to wake up. Once he felt better, she would tell him about her situation, explaining that their marriage could not be renewed and that she wanted to return to Anyuan.
Unable to bear Yunzhou's prolonged unconsciousness, in her despair, she made a decision: if Yunzhou remained like this, she would stay by his side. If he recovered, she would then discuss annulmenting the engagement with him.
Therefore, she could no longer respond to Qi Shixiang's intentions.
She said, "Axiang, I know your feelings. I only want to stay with Madam Cen and wait for Brother Yunzhou to wake up. If he doesn't wake up, I will stay at the Cen residence and not return to the Duke's mansion. There are many noble ladies and elegant beauties in the capital. I have seen quite a few during my time in the capital. There are many who are talented, knowledgeable, and broad-minded..."
"Why are you saying all this?" He quickly interrupted her, knowing she was about to say things he didn't want to hear, and said, "If you want to stay with Madam Cen, then stay. I haven't urged you to come back. What do those women in the capital have to do with you and me?"
"Axiang, what I mean is that if anything happens to Ruoyunzhou, I will stay by his side. My engagement with him will not be called off. You should also take a good look at the women in the capital, those good girls, and don't fixate on just one person."
He said urgently, "An Ruying, why are you so petty? Are you still angry that I said you are not as good as the women in the capital, and you deliberately said that to provoke me? You, you and I have already consummated our marriage. You and I, you and I have already done that, how can you still renew your marriage contract with Cen Yunzhou?"
She said, "I'm not angry with you. Those things are in the past. Ah Xiang, we need to look forward."
