Double Life: The Long Road to Chasing Your Wife

Xiao Yan returned to the study, thinking of what Wang Xiaowu said, he looked at the sky outside the window and couldn't sleep at night.

Xiao Yan could not understand what Wang Xiaowu said for the time being.

He didn't even understand why Lin Shu liked Su Yi more when he was so good.

For several days, Xiao Yan handed Lan Di an application form to go to the border, but Lan Di was still trying to persuade him to stay.

After all, Xiao Yan is the most trusted person by Emperor Lan, and Emperor Lan will feel more secure if Xiao Yan stays in the capital. Therefore, Xiao Yan's offer has been suppressed for the time being, and Emperor Lan has not yet agreed.

On Lin Shu's side, Xiao Yan did not bother Lin Shu in the past few days in order to let Lin Shu recover from her injuries.

The main reason is that Xiao Yan has not yet understood what Wang Xiaowu said.

Seeing that Xiao Yan did not disturb her, Lin Shu followed the doctor Li's instructions and took anti-fetal medicine three times a day, and the wound on her neck also scabbed.

A few days later, Emperor Lan finally agreed to Xiao Yan's request.

Xiao Yan walked towards his mother as soon as he came to the morning and fed his mother porridge.

"Mother, the emperor has agreed to the child's request. In a few days, the child will take you on the journey. Let's go to the border to start a new life."

Xiao Yan's mother dodged the spoon that Xiao Yan was feeding her, saying "Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh" in her mouth, not knowing what she was talking about.

"Mother, are you asking my child about Lin Shu?"

Xiao Yan's mother blinked and said yes.

Xiao Yan has been talking to his mother about Lin Shu a lot these days, so Xiao Yan's mother is very concerned about Lin Shu's affairs and whether Xiao Yan really wants to take Lin Shu as his own.

"My child has not yet decided whether to let her go. These days, my child has not dared to see her. I am worried that she will get emotional and do something stupid."

Xiao Yan's mother opened her mouth wide and kept talking for a long time.

What she wants to say is:

"Yan'er, you are the Duke of the country. You don't have to lower your status to marry a second-married girl. What's more, Lin Shu is still pregnant with her ex-husband's child. Such a woman is not even worthy of being your concubine, let alone your first wife. Let her go, and you can slowly find a girl who matches your family."

The more Xiao Yan's mother talked, the more excited she became. She was very afraid that Xiao Yan would really ask Lin Shu to be her daughter-in-law.

Even though she herself was paralyzed by a stroke, it didn't affect Xiao Yan's ability to find another innocent girl. Even if her family conditions were a little worse, she was still much better than Lin Shu.

"Mother, do you want your child to give up Lin Shu?"

Xiao Yan's mother nodded quickly and made a "hmm" sound.

"Since the mother wants her child to let her go, then the child will..."

Xiao Yan choked up.

"Let her go back, kid."

"Mother, please have a good rest. My child will ask my servants to take good care of you. There is something I want to ask Lin Shu. After she answers my doubts, my child will let her reunite with her husband, and then my child will take you away. this."

Perhaps in the past few days, Xiao Yan slowly realized his mistake.

After Xiao Yan covered his mother with a quilt, he took heavy steps to the entrance of the courtyard where Lin Shu was.

"Xiaowu, do you think I should let go?"

"Sir, stop the loss as soon as possible. It will be better for everyone if you let go now." Wang Xiaowu also knew that Xiao Yan should have figured it out in the past few days.

More importantly, Wang Xiaowu felt that Lin Shu didn't care about his master. If Xiao Yan kept Lin Shuqiang by his side, they might not live a good life.

"In that case, I'll go find Lin Shu for a final chat."

So Xiao Yan strode into the courtyard gate and came to Lin Shu's room, to be precise, his own room.

Lin Shu had just finished drinking the anti-fetal medicine. Chun Qi took the medicine bowl away while Qiu Lai was cleaning the table.

"I've met the Duke." He knelt on the ground and saluted at the same time.

When Lin Shu saw it was Xiao Yan, she turned her face away without saluting Xiao Yan.

Lin Shu was not even afraid of death anyway, so how could she salute Xiao Yan because she was afraid of Xiao Yan.

"You go out first."

As soon as Xiao Yan finished speaking, Chun Qu Qiu Lai quickly put down what he was doing and left the room.

"Lin Shu, I have something to tell you."

Xiao Yan didn't care about Lin Shu's attitude towards him now. He just wanted to make sure that Lin Shu was really like Wang Xiaowu said and would choose to commit suicide rather than stay with him.

"My lord, you have a noble status. I have nothing to say to you as a commoner woman."

After a trip to hell, Lin Shu's character changed a little. The worst she could do was to die with the child in her belly. Even then, she could not betray Su Yi or the relationship between them.

"Lin Shu, when you talk to me with this attitude, aren't you afraid that I will blame Su Yi? You must know that I can have Su Yi killed at any time."

Lin Shu turned her head when she heard Su Yi's name, her eyes filled with hatred for Xiao Yan and guilt for having caused Su Yi.

"Xiao Yan, it's me who offended you. I have nothing to do with Su Yi. He became the victim of your plot against me in vain. Are you still not letting him go?"

Xiao Yan looked at Lin Shu who called him by his first name. It turned out that she was not like this. Was it really his fault?

Lin Shu was already very rational. If it were anyone else, she might have wanted to kill Xiao Yan.

"Calm down first. I'll ask you a few questions. After you answer them, I'll let you go and find Su Yi."

Xiao Yan wanted to appease Lin Shu's emotions first. After all, in this case, Lin Shu might not be able to answer his doubts well.

However, it was not easy for Xiao Yan to talk to Lin Shu calmly at this time.

"Really? Are you really willing to let me go back and reunite with my husband?"

"I'm sending you to Su Yi. After all, Su Yi is already dead in the eyes of the emperor. I'm afraid it will be really dangerous if you come back. As long as you answer the questions I asked you seriously, I will definitely let you go with Su Yi." Stay far away, and I will never bother you again in this life, okay?"

Lin Shu shed tears of excitement and nodded with tears in her eyes.

Xiao Yan was finally willing to let her go.

Xiao Yan saw the expression on Lin Shu's face crying with joy when she heard that she could leave him and go to be with Su Yi, and her heart seemed to be scratched by a knife.

Xiao Yan suddenly felt that he might already know the answer and there was no need to ask anymore.

Xiao Yan's Adam's apple twitched and finally asked an obvious question.

"Have you ever loved me?"

Lin Shu looked at Xiao Yan in surprise, why was this a problem?

Seeing that Lin Shu did not answer, Xiao Yan continued to ask:

"What about the last life? Did you love me?"

"My lord, as long as the civilian woman answers this question seriously, no matter whether you are satisfied with the answer or not, you are willing to reunite the civilian woman and her husband."

Xiao Yan closed his eyes and nodded.

Lin Shu received Xiao Yan's nod before she began to answer Xiao Yan's questions.

"My lord, no matter in this life or in the last life, a commoner woman has never loved you. I thought I would spend this life in a muddle, but I met my husband Su Yi."

Lin Shu slowly stood up, knelt in front of Xiao Yan and kowtowed.

"My lord, please really let me and my husband go, and we will be like cows or horses in the next life, and I will repay you."

"If I let you go, who will let me go?" Xiao Yan said hysterically with red eyes.
