Shang Ruyi was taken aback for a moment.
She thought Yu Wenye would still be cold to her, but unexpectedly, his attitude—
Yet, seeing the harmonious scene of his family behind him, she understood, Yu Wenye was still rational. No matter what happened between them, no matter how much he disliked her, he would still act the part of a couple for his family’s sake.
Thinking of this, Shang Ruyi smiled faintly and shook her head, "No, I’m not tired."
At this moment, Yu Wenquan noticed her too, cheerfully gestured for her to sit down quickly, and then playfully scolded Yu Wenye, "I told you to accompany your wife for a walk, why did you come back alone? That’s not right!"
Yu Wenye said, "Father, please don’t blame me. It’s just that something urgent happened in the army, and I needed to handle it."
"What could be more important than accompanying your wife?"
"Father, do you remember that remaining group of the Dragon Gate Rebel Army?"
Hearing this, just as Shang Ruyi was about to sit down, she froze. Yu Wenye also turned to look at her and said, "Don’t be afraid, we’ve already captured them."
"I’ve had them locked up separately, how to deal with them—we’ll decide later."
When he said this, his tone was very calm, without any menacing expressions, yet Shang Ruyi still felt an overwhelming sense of hostility emanating from him again.
At this moment, Yu Wencheng, sitting beside Guan Yunmu, suddenly smiled and said, "Second Brother, they actually dared to threaten you in such a way, you surely won’t spare them lightly, right?"
"When you deal with them, take me along to watch, okay?"
Yu Wenye replied indifferently, "Focus on your studies, affairs of the military are none of your concern."
Yu Wencheng immediately looked dejected.
Shang Ruyi looked at him, then at Yu Wenye beside her, whose face was gradually turning stern, and she started to understand.
Thinking about it, perhaps he does want to vent his anger.
Not to mention, as a martial artist, having your newlywed wife—even if it’s just a transaction, in the eyes of outsiders, they are husband and wife—being plotted against and even injured, is a very embarrassing matter. He absolutely needs to deal with these people to establish his authority in the army.
"Alright, let’s not talk about military matters during the meal."
Yu Wenquan waved his hand and then looked at each of his family members sitting down with a look of satisfaction, remarking, "It’s been a while since our family sat down for a meal ."
Guan Yunmu, sitting beside him, covered her mouth and coughed a couple of times before smiling, "You and Ye’er are busy with official matters outside every day, where’s the time to sit down for a proper meal?"
As Yu Wenquan spoke, he glanced at Yu Wenye and Shang Ruyi next to him, and also at Yu Wencheng sitting next to Guan Yunmu. Suddenly, a hint of sadness appeared on his smiling face.
Although it was a fleeting expression, someone at the table still caught it.
Shang Ruyi sensed it too.
If she wasn’t mistaken, at this moment, Yu Wenquan should be thinking of the only Yu Wen family member who wasn’t present—
Thinking of him, Shang Ruyi’s heart sank a little.
She knew well that after such an awkward engagement break-off, it would be best if they never met again. But strangely, since the wedding yesterday until now, she really hadn’t seen Yu Wenqian or heard anyone mention him, as if he didn’t exist in the Yu Wen family at all.
Shang Ruyi became increasingly curious about this person.
What kind of person was he?
