After the divorce, I was adorned in a phoenix robe, while my ex-husband's entire family dug up

Lu Jieyue saw a terrifying face appear in the Marquis's residence. The face was no longer the same as before; it not only had the bloody scar but also had many new scars.

His head was wrapped in gauze, which was stained with blood, and he walked with a limp.

Qingque, standing to the side, was also covered in injuries. Although she didn't appear to be as badly injured as Lu Jieyue, she was still quite badly hurt.

Dongxu let out a soft "Ah," as if she was startled by the two people's appearance.

When the two saw Wei Zhaoning, a strange and ambiguous emotion flashed in their eyes.

Wei Zhaoning had long anticipated this day and wasn't surprised, but she still had to say the polite words, "Sister-in-law, this is..."

Lu Jieyue said nothing and hurriedly left with Qingque in her arms.

When the old lady and Lu Zhufeng saw Lu Jieyue's appearance, their eyes widened.

The old lady almost couldn't catch her breath. If Lu Zhufeng hadn't supported her and given her a calming pill, she probably would have fainted on the spot.

"Jieyue! My Jieyue! My child! This, this beast!!!"

"Come here, let me see! Are you all useless good-for-nothings? Go and fetch a doctor!"

Large tears rolled down the old lady's cloudy eyes.

The moment he touched Lu Jieyue, his whole body trembled uncontrollably.

"Mother... Mother, I won't marry him anymore. I beg you, I beg you to help me. Even just getting me a letter of divorce would be fine. He really will beat me to death!" Lu Jieyue's voice grew weaker and weaker, and her cries echoed throughout the entire Marquis's mansion.

Lu Zhufeng rolled up his sleeves. "This is outrageous! Sister, you just wait! I'm going to find Meng Yun and demand an explanation. Nobody will dare bully my sister!"

"You all! Come with me! And you, quickly go and deliver a message to the Second Young Master, telling him to bring his gang of sworn brothers!"

Lu Zhufeng was truly enraged. The gentle and refined gentleman who always appeared gentle and cultured in front of others could only think of using violence to solve the problem at this moment.

If this matter is reported to the emperor, he will most likely not blame him, since Meng Yun was at fault first.

Lu Jieyue sniffed, and for a moment she felt as if she was saved. Once she got home, she would no longer be harmed.

The doctor arrived quickly and was visibly shocked when he saw the injuries on Lu Jieyue's body. Having practiced medicine for many years, he had seen all kinds of wounds, but this was the first time he had ever seen a girl with so many injuries all at once. It was almost as bad as someone who had been wounded in battle.

He sighed, thinking that the young lady had truly suffered by marrying Meng Yun.

"Young Miss, you need to rest for a while. Your internal organs are also injured, so it's best not to move around anymore. It will take a long time to recover."

Lu Jieyue buried her face in the old lady's shoulder, tears streaming down her face. "Thank you, thank you, doctor."

She now feels that these injuries are nothing; as long as she is alive, she is already very fortunate.

"Mom, don't make me go back, don't send me away, I'm scared... I'm really scared."

The old lady's heart clenched. "How could I possibly send you away... that beast! I'll make him suffer a terrible death!"

"I warned you long ago, but you wouldn't listen... What a tragedy!"

The physician then treated Qingque's injuries and couldn't help but sigh, "They didn't even spare a maid; she was beaten like this."

Wei Zhaoning waited until they had all calmed down before slowly walking over.

"Sister-in-law, why were you so stubborn back then? Sigh, if you hadn't been at the banquet... Never mind, what's the point of saying all this now?"

Don't worry, Meng Yun won't get away with this.

Of course, she was just saying that; she wouldn't actually do anything to deal with Meng Yun.

Lu Jieyue and Qing Que were both stunned, staring at Wei Zhaoning, speechless for a long time.

Wei Zhaoning felt that the two people's gazes were quite strange, as if they were not familiar with each other. The usual hostility in their eyes was gone, replaced by an indescribable meaning.

After a brief moment of stunned silence, Lu Jieyue realized that she had been locked in a room and beaten relentlessly by Meng Yun for the past few days, leaving her completely dazed.

Yes, if it weren't for that bitch Wei Jiaruo coming up with this despicable idea, she wouldn't have been so tightly bound to Meng Yun.

If it weren't for her interference, Wei Zhaoning would have prevented her marriage to Meng Yun, just like in her previous life. She would have married the count and become a wealthy and powerful countess.

She glanced around the lobby, but Wei Jiaruo was nowhere to be seen. Was she feeling guilty? Did she dare not come to see her?

Anger surged from her chest; it was all because of Wei Jiaruo! If Wei Jiaruo hadn't pushed her down that path, she wouldn't be in this state now!

"Jieyue? Jieyue? What are you thinking about? Are you alright?" The old lady asked anxiously when she saw that Lu Jieyue was not speaking and was lost in thought, fearing that Lu Jieyue had been hit in the head by Meng Yun.

Lu Jieyue came to her senses and said, "Mother, I'm fine."

The old lady sighed. "What happened? Why did he suddenly start hitting people?"

Lu Jieyue started to drift off into thought again, and the old lady frowned and said to Qingque, "You tell me."

Qingque pursed her lips, glanced at Wei Zhaoning, and said, "She... Miss, after Miss went back, she said that she would not allow Lord Meng's illegitimate son to enter the ancestral hall, so Lord Meng got angry and started hitting people."

After beating her, he seemed unsatisfied. In the following days, he would come into the young lady's room reeking of alcohol and start beating her at the slightest disagreement. When the servant tried to stop him, he would beat her as well.

The young lady tried to run away, so the master had someone watch over her and put her under house arrest. If she hadn't managed to find a chance to escape, her injuries would probably be... probably..."

The old lady was so angry that she wanted to personally teach Meng Yun a lesson.

Lu Jieyue's eyes grew increasingly sinister.

Wei Jiaruo, Wei Jiaruo.

Once she is completely safe and returns to the Marquis's mansion, I will never let this vile woman go.

Wei Zhaoning felt it was a bit strange that she, as the "mistress," didn't say anything after she cried so miserably.

Since we're leaving anyway, we might as well put on an act.

"Sister-in-law, don't worry, Meng Yun won't dare to cause trouble again. Just get a divorce as soon as possible. A failed relationship is nothing."

"Sigh, actually you shouldn't have made peace with Meng Yun when he hit you last time, but it's no use saying so much now. There's no going back now. Let's just move on from now on."

When the words "regret pill" were mentioned, Lu Jieyue and Qing Que's eyes deepened, as if a trace of sorrow had passed by, but it quickly disappeared.

Lu Jieyue was taken aback for a moment, then said, "Thank you."

Upon hearing this, everyone in the room was stunned. The old lady looked at Lu Jieyue as if she had seen a ghost.

What is she doing? Is she thanking Wei Zhaoning?

Did his brain really get damaged?
