Sweet Rustic Love: Four Brothers’ Wife

The worker was framing Ye Ling’s portrait at the moment, so he let her look at the other portrait in the meantime.

The ominous feeling rose within Little Tian again!

She thought, is she planning to destroy the portrait? Won’t that make Master Dongfang hate her even more?

If someone did not like you, there was nothing you could do that would change his mind, but there was also no reason to make him hate you even more, was there? She could not make sense of what her lady was plotting.

Taking over the portrait, Wang Xiangyun looked at Liu Duo’s sweet smile. The woman in the painting was not as attractive as herself, but she was still a young and considerably fair maiden.

Wang Xiangyun already knew that Liu Duo was married, to four husbands in fact, and yet she had the sinking feeling that this other woman would come between herself and Brother Ming.

She thought of that moment when Dongfang Ming was concentrating on painting Liu Duo’s portrait. Her fingers tightened around the scroll, and her eyebrows creased.

“Hey, do you have a brush and some ink I can use?” She smiled at the worker. “This is my friend’s portrait. I want to write something for her.”

The worker looked to the shop assistant for guidance. He would know who brought the portrait here.

The shop assistant furrowed his brows, finding himself in a bad situation. “Miss, this portrait belongs to the gentleman outside. I have to get his permission.”

In other words, I don’t care if you know the person in the portrait. I have to ask the owner of the painting because it’s not something I can decide!

He could now simply allow anyone to add anything onto the artwork without checking with Dongfang Ming. This woman might be captivating, but his job came first.

Little Tian agreed with the shop assistant this time. She advised her lady, “Miss, he’s right. Why don’t we talk to Mr. Dongfang?”

She was doing this for her lady’s own good. Otherwise, if she were to add anything onto the portrait, which would only increase Dongfang Ming’s hatred towards her, she would be the one upset in the end, wouldn’t she?

Wang Xiangyun was not pleased that Little Tian sided with the shop assistant instead of her!

“Fine, I’ll ask Brother Ming then!” she exclaimed as she folded the portrait in two and headed towards the exit.

Little Tian heaved a sigh of relief before catching up to Wang Xiangyun, and it was then that she heard the sound of paper being torn apart.

She turned to face her lady, only to find the shredded pieces in her hands. “Miss, you…”

She was at a loss for words. The omen she had felt before had become a reality.

“Miss, what did you…?” The shop assistant paled at the unexpected turn of events, his inner voice practically nagging, I’m done for! I’ll get fired for this!

Wang Xiangyun did not stop there. She said as she walked away, “Sir, just tell Brother Ming that I destroyed his portrait. He won’t do anything to you.”

When she reached the door, she tossed the two halves of the portrait at him, and left after that.

Lacking a reaction, the shop assistant just stared at the torn portrait, apparently in a daze. She wants me to tell the gentleman out there?

The worker nearby had witnessed what happened and patted him on the shoulder. “Go on! Chase after that woman! If you lose her, you’re done for!”

The shop assistant instantly snapped out of it and ran after Wang Xiaoyun.

“Miss! Miss! Don’t go… You did this! You should explain it to him yourself…”
