You Can Only Be My Wife

It was raining.

A luxurious carriage sped along Vermillion Bird Street.

Upon arrival, the doctor hurriedly walked in from beneath the signboard of “Kingdom-Stabilizing General’s Manor”. The gatekeeper and a few servants were sweating profusely. They hurriedly took his medicine box and instructed,

“This is the only legitimate daughter of the General’s Manor. Doctor, you must do your best!”

“Miss accidentally fell into the water. When she was found, she was almost out of breath. Now that the brothers are all not in the residence, only you are the nearest. The life of our Miss is hanging in your hands!”

There was probably no one in the entire capital who did not know how this young lady was doted on. When he thought of those biased and self-centered brothers who were each more powerful than the other, the doctor broke out in cold sweat.

…

A fair and smooth wrist stretched out from under the tulle drape. Upwards, every inch of her skin was as fair as snow.

The man stood by the bed, his well-defined hands slowly unbuttoning his undershirt. He was tall, and his cold face had dispelled some of the ambiguity in the room. His entire body exuded an air of indifference and abstinence.

Bai Xianyu lay on the bed and suddenly felt indescribably tired.

Yesterday, she saw Xie Xingyun stroking his beloved horse. Although his gaze was not very gentle, it was also what she had wanted to see in his eyes.

She had pursued him for three years, married him for seven years, and spent ten years with him. Xie Xingyun had never been gentle to her. Even when it came to intimacy, he was extremely calm, as if it was a routine business.

She was originally the daughter of a general family and her four older brothers doted on her like their lives depended on it. However, in just a few years, they either died or were demoted.

Under Bai Xianyu’s gaze, Xie Xingyun’s eyes were still cold. He half-knelt on the bed and his voice was a little hoarse. “What are you thinking about?”

Bai Xianyu closed her eyes and said in a trembling voice, “I heard that the Eldest Princess is preparing to let you take in a concubine?”

Xie Xingyun’s gaze deepened, and the coldness accumulated between his brows instantly caused the temperature in the entire room to plummet to freezing point.

“Who told you that?”

Bai Xianyu smiled sadly. This reply was already tacit acknowledgement.

She had been married to Xie Xingyun for seven years and did not have any children. This had long made that domineering Eldest Princess unhappy. Initially, she was a little afraid of her brothers, but now that she was alone, what could she use to stop him from taking concubines?

“When were you going to tell me?”

Xie Xingyun’s eyes flickered. He was about to say something when Bai Xianyu interrupted him.

Her voice was tired. “Never mind. What’s the point now?”

What she wanted in this life was just Xie Xingyun. She wanted to be with him for the rest of her life. Now she could not get his heart, and she could not even keep him.

What was the point?

“If I could start all over again in this life, I would rather marry the young master of the Marquis of Dingyuan’s family. At least when my fourth brother was demoted, he was the only one who stood up for him.”

Xie Xingyun narrowed his cold eyes and exuded a dangerous aura. He pulled Bai Xianyu into his arms along with the blanket and laughed instead of being angry. “Ha…”

His voice was like the cold snow that permeated Sky Mountain.

“… Unfortunately, you can only be my wife for the rest of your life.”

…

Bai Xianyu opened her eyes again and saw familiar yet unfamiliar faces.

“Miss, you’re awake. Quick, go and tell her brothers!”

“Thank God, Miss, you’re finally awake. The Old General in heaven has shown favor…”

“Sister!”

“Sister, how are you feeling?”

Someone had bashed through the door. Bai Xianyu was stunned for a moment before she propped herself up in shock.

It was actually…

Eldest Brother and Fourth Brother.
