Chapter 518 The Ex-Wife in the Historical Fiction 17
Wang Qiaofang pointed at Lu Yiheng: "This, isn't this Lu Yiheng? You..."
When she saw Lu Yiheng, she stammered.
“Yes, Mom, that’s Lu Yiheng. He’s not dead. We met in the city and came back together on the way,” Qi Ning replied.
"What! You're not dead?" Qi Yang was equally shocked.
“That’s right.” Lu Yiheng nodded.
He looked at the Qi family and greeted them politely: "Uncle and Aunt, Brother Qi Yang, Sister-in-law, I am indeed not dead. I was just injured before. I brought Qi Ning back today."
"Oh."
Qi Yang and the Qi family exchanged glances and accepted the fact.
He saw that Lu Yiheng was still carrying Qi Ning's luggage bag, so he quickly stepped forward and took it from him.
"Alright, give me the things. Thank you for bringing my sister back. You should be in a hurry to get back, so we won't keep you here."
Qi Yang's tone was slightly stiff and impolite.
Qi Yang snatched the bag from Lu Yiheng's hand. He clenched his empty hand and could only reply, "Okay, then I'll head back first."
He glanced at Qi Ning before turning and walking back.
Qi Ning glanced at Qi Yang: "Brother, why are you being so rude? Someone helped me carry things back, and you won't even let them have a glass of water."
Qi Yang raised an eyebrow and said irritably, "What do you know? He hasn't even gone home yet. What's the point of keeping him here? He should just go inside."
"That's right, go in quickly."
Wang Qiaofang grabbed Qi Ning's hand and led her into the courtyard.
After the family returned home, they still asked Qi Ning about Lu Yiheng. Qi Ning then gave a brief account of how she met Lu Yiheng in the city.
After hearing what Qi Ning said, that she and Lu Yiheng were really just passing by, the Qi family was relieved and began to fuss over her.
Qi Ning vividly described the things happening in the city to them, and then distributed the gifts she had brought back from the city to them. The family was quite harmonious and happy.
On the other side, Lu Yiheng returned to Xinghua Village, which startled the villagers.
When Gu Lixuan and He Sisi heard the news, they went outside and saw Lu Yiheng entering his uncle's courtyard.
"Lu Yiheng is actually still alive." He Sisi's face turned slightly pale.
Gu Lixuan's expression was also not good, his brows were tightly furrowed.
He clearly saw Lu Yiheng's name on the list of those who sacrificed their lives, and now he's actually back.
At this moment, he realized that the person who sacrificed himself was not Lu Yiheng, but someone with the same name.
Gu Lixuan looked away: "So what if he's not dead? So what if he's back? We're married now and have a child. His return is useless."
"I'm afraid he'll cause you trouble."
"Then let's wait until he contacts me before we talk."
Gu Lixuan helped He Sisi up: "Let's go inside. Be careful not to upset the baby."
Even so, both Gu Lixuan and He Sisi felt a little uneasy.
But after they waited for several days, Lu Yiheng didn't come to find them, as if he didn't exist.
After hesitating for a long time, Gu Lixuan still took the initiative to go to Lu Yiheng.
The two met by the river at the edge of the village.
Lu Yiheng looked at Gu Lixuan, who had appeared in front of him, and asked calmly, "Is there something you need?"
"Yiheng, I heard you were injured while you were missing, you..."
"If you have something to say, just say it. If not, I'm leaving."
Lu Yiheng had no patience to listen to his hypocritical words.
Gu Lixuan had originally thought that since they were brothers with a good relationship, he wanted to say a few words to him, but Lu Yiheng's cold attitude made Gu Lixuan's words of greeting stuck in his throat.
"Okay, then I'll just say it directly. Sisi and I are already married, you know that, right?"
"Of course I know, and I know exactly how you got married."
Gu Lixuan's expression stiffened upon hearing this; Lu Yiheng's words instantly reminded him of the time he was caught cheating on his wife.
His tone suddenly changed: "So what? You're still alive, yet you came back so late. If Sisi hadn't been heartbroken thinking you were dead, why would I have gone to comfort her? And why would that have happened? Otherwise, do you think I did it on purpose?"
Gu Lixuan didn't think he had done anything wrong at all; on the contrary, he felt that it was all Lu Yiheng's fault.
Lu Yiheng almost laughed in anger: "Gu Lixuan, don't worry. I told He Sisi when I left three years ago that she didn't need to wait for me and could marry whoever she wanted. Now that you two are married, my marriage with He Sisi is obviously no longer valid. You don't need to worry about anything."
Gu Lixuan didn't expect Lu Yiheng to have this attitude. He would rather Lu Yiheng fight him than hear these words making him angry.
"Ha, you're making yourself sound so innocent, making Sisi and I seem like the bad guys?"
"Isn't that right? If it's not your fault, how could it be mine?" Lu Yiheng retorted.
Gu Lixuan retorted, "Of course! Aren't you right? Since you're not dead, even if you can't come back, you should at least send a message!"
Lu Yiheng was in the hospital and couldn't get out of bed. He was almost kicked out of the hospital for failing to pay his medical bills. He had no way of contacting the village.
But Lu Yiheng was too lazy to explain these things to him.
"Whether I come back or not, that's no excuse for you to betray Qi Ning and be with He Sisi. You can find reasons to blame me, but Qi Ning is innocent, right? Do you think you're the innocent ones?"
After Lu Yiheng finished speaking, he wanted to leave. He didn't want to say too much to Gu Lixuan, otherwise he was afraid he would lose control and hit him.
Gu Lixuan gritted his teeth and stopped Lu Yiheng again just as Lu Yiheng was about to walk past him.
"stop."
Lu Yiheng paused: "Is there anything else?"
Gu Lixuan said sarcastically, "You kept mentioning Qi Ning, and I heard that you and Qi Ning came back together this time. You wouldn't be deliberately getting so close to Qi Ning to get back at me, would you?"
Hearing Gu Lixuan's words, Lu Yiheng could no longer bear it and punched Gu Lixuan hard in the face.
"what--"
Caught off guard, Gu Lixuan was knocked to the ground by Lu Yiheng's punch.
"you?!"
Lu Yiheng looked coldly at Gu Lixuan: "Don't assume everyone is as despicable as you."
Gu Lixuan got up from the ground, wanting to fight back against Lu Yiheng, but Lu Yiheng left without looking back after saying those words.
Lu Yiheng had a sullen face the whole way back.
He didn't get close to Qi Ning to get revenge on Gu Lixuan. He just... just thought Qi Ning was very good, really good, so he couldn't help but want to get closer to her.
Now it seems that Gu Lixuan and He Sisi are doing quite well together; Gu Lixuan is simply not good enough for Qi Ning.
Just as Lu Yiheng was thinking about Qi Ning, he walked down a road and heard Qi Ning's name.
