Chapter 23 Reaching a Consensus
"In what capacity does the eldest lady come to tell me these things?"
"Equal status!" Wen Xun'er looked at him, "From now on, I will do my best to make it up to you. As long as you don't resent me or the Wen family, I will do my best to satisfy you whatever you want!"
Xiao Jiwei looked at her for a long time, with a flash of coldness in his dark pupils.
"If we are truly equal, do you think what you are suffering now is enough to equal everything I have suffered in the past eight years?" He opened his sleeves in front of Wen Xun'er, and on the young man's thin and fair arms,
There were whip marks criss-crossing the entire arm, and old and new scars were all over the arm. It looked like there was almost no intact skin.
Wen Xun'er was shocked and speechless for a moment.
The young man put down his sleeves and leaned against the bedside and twitched his lips sarcastically: "Yes, the eldest lady has a distinguished status. What a disaster it is for you. Even the palace will send people to express condolences. And in the past eight years, how many times has it happened?"
Day and night, I could only huddle in that dilapidated room, endure the hunger and cold, and live a life without seeing tomorrow. The old wounds were healed, but new ones were added, rotten food, dripping bedding, and nine cold days.
, you are wrapped in fur clothes and hugging the heater, but I don’t even have a dry bedding. Can all of this be repaid in one night? Do you think it can be repaid?"
"Then you can repay it by killing me?"
"Yes, if I kill you, I will feel that the suffering of these eight years was not in vain, and only your life can pay the debt of these eight years. Will you give it to me?" He spoke very fast, and leaned closer.
The wound burst open, and Wen Xun'er could already see blood oozing from his newly bandaged chest.
She stood up with a roar: "If that's the case, then why did you come to plead guilty to me? What was the reason for being stabbed?"
Xiao Jiwei laughed: "If I hadn't suffered this blow, would you, the eldest lady of the Wen family, have let me go? How long would the torture be? How many whips?"
This question left Wen Xun'er speechless.
She walked to the window, eager to find a breakthrough in the relationship between the two.
"Then have you ever thought about it? Why do I hate you?" She turned around, the snowy light outside the house made her face pale, "You are not my father's child. You know this very well. If it weren't for the Wen family,
With the protection of my father, your mother, an abandoned woman who abandoned her home, actually gave birth to a son. Do you think you can survive until now? If it weren’t for my father’s support, you would have died in your infancy!”
Xiao Jiwei's eyes were filled with understanding and he said nothing.
Wen Xun'er walked up to him again: "You hate me, that's not wrong, but the Wen family doesn't only hate you. At least you haven't finished my father's kindness, right?"
Seeing that Xiao Jiwei's mood had relaxed, Wen Xun'er sat in front of him again: "I promise that from now on, I will treat you with courtesy, I will not treat you harshly, and I will give you everything you deserve. As long as you
I promise that from now on, I will not regard the Wen family as a thorn in my flesh, nor will I frame anyone in the Wen family. I will help you achieve whatever you want!"
Xiao Jiwei's eyes flashed, and he felt more and more that the person standing in front of him now did not look like Wen Xun'er.
"You know what I want?"
"Of course I know. Not only do I know what you want, I also know that you like Li Yunni, right?"
Xiao Jiwei was startled, and suddenly looked at her again, with murderous intent flashing in his eyes.
"It's not a secret. The first time you saw her, I knew you liked her." Wen Xun'er pondered, "But you also know that my father wants me to marry you. If you don't cooperate,
, maybe you will marry me soon. In this case, you will only be farther and farther away from the person you like, and you may even never get it in your lifetime. Are you willing?"
Xiao Jiwei pursed his lips: "I don't like her."
Wen Xun'er smiled.
Do you like it or not? Do I still know?
"Whether you like it or not is your private matter. I have no right to interfere. I'm just negotiating a deal with you now. I just need you to promise that from now on, you, Xiao Jiwei, will never do anything detrimental to the Wen family.
, I can help you with everything you want!”
"Do you have this ability?"
"I don't have it, but my father has it, and my aunt has it!" Wen Xun'er looked at him, "Based on the Wen family's status in the court alone, as long as the Wen family is willing, the Wen family is the ladder for you to rise to the top. If you want to join
Whether you want to go to court or go to the battlefield, the Wen family can do it for you!"
There was a flash of surprise in Xiao Jiwei's dark eyes.
How could this woman know what he was thinking?
In the eight years since he came to the Wen family, he has never confided in anyone. How could she know that he wanted power? There was also the matter of the location of the bandits' den before. He was in the same room with her at that time. There was no way she was there.
At that time, the location of the bandits' den was known, and those people would not be stupid enough to report their destination, but this woman knew it all!
Moreover, it seemed that after Wen Ruhai slapped her that night, her whole person was a little different. Although her eyes were still defensive towards him, they were more fearful and cautious. He couldn't understand.
What kind of danger does she pose to her now that would make her, a young lady from a general's palace, afraid of her?
In the past, Wen Xun'er only had hatred and kingly contempt for him, and never had any fear. What was the problem that caused her to change so much?
"How do I know if what you said counts?"
Wen Xun'er's mind moved. So, he agreed?
"What I want is for you to put down your hatred for the Wen family. If I can't do that, then this negotiation will be meaningless. After all, you are still trapped by the Wen family. What I want to do to you will be easy.
, there’s no need to expend so much effort to get you to let go!”
Xiao Jiwei thought again and again: "I will not marry you!"
"I swear, in this life, even if I marry a cat or a dog on the roadside, I will never marry you!" She said with a sincere face.
"I want to enter Imperial College."
"Okay, tomorrow I will go to the palace and ask my aunt to let you be the eleventh prince's companion. From now on, you can follow the eleventh prince and enter and leave the Imperial Academy freely!"
Xiao Jiwei suddenly raised his eyes to look at her.
Not to mention that she was not surprised at all when she heard the words "to go to Taixue". She actually had already thought of a way to do it, as if she knew he wanted to go to Taixue early in the morning!
Taixue has always been a place where only the children of imperial officials could go. It was a place where the royal family trained talents. It was impossible for him to get into Taixue with his status. And Wen Xun'er's method was not only reliable, it would also give him an opportunity to enter Taixue.
Everything becomes a matter of course!
Shocked in his heart, he stared at Wen Xun'er: "As long as you can do this, I will agree to your request."
"Okay, then it's settled!" Wen Xun'er stood up, "I'm going to tell dad that I will go to the palace tomorrow to see my aunt!"
She changed her clothes, wrapped herself in a cloak, and walked quickly to the main hall.
In the main hall, Shen Wei actually didn't leave.
