Chapter 506 -167 Chen Jie: What, Huang Wan’er is pregnant? (Please subscribe)_5
After hearing this, everyone fell silent in unison.
Then their eyes turned towards Su Yunjin, who, at that time, did not react much but also did not say much.
Among those seated, apart from Bai Wenjing, almost everyone knew about Chen Jie and Huang Wan’er, so they were not too surprised, just unsure what Mrs. Huang intended to do by contacting the Hall Master through secretive means.
Bai Wenjing, upon hearing this, also did not speak. Being an old hand in Jianghu, he understood many things very well.
In this era, it is unavoidable for a great man to have three wives and four concubines.
Therefore, Su Yunjin had to learn to be more open-minded about some matters, especially since Bai Wenjing felt that, besides Chen Jie not appearing mediocre and surely having great prospects, women would naturally gather around him.
With these thoughts in mind, everyone looked puzzledly at Chen Jie.
Chen Jie glanced at Si Xi and said, “Okay, since everyone knows now, let’s see what the letter says.”
Si Xi responded, “Master, I’ll excuse myself from this.”
Si Xi placed the secret letter in front of Chen Jie and then left, showing a strong sense of tact.
Zhou Chu said, “Oh boy, I drank too much. I need to use the restroom, Xiao Hu, come with me.”
Xiao Hu said, “I don’t need to pee.”
“You do, you just don’t know it yet. Let’s go.”
With that, Zhou Chu directly pulled Xiao Hu away, Chen Zhu following, with Xiao Hu looking utterly baffled. “I need to pee, how come I don’t know about it?”
As he thought this, he was already being dragged away by Zhou Chu.
Now, only Bai Wenjing, Su Yunjin, and Chen Jiusi were left at the dining table.
At this moment, Bai Wenjing stood up and said, “Oh dear, old age is really a downer, I can’t sit still anymore, I’ll head back first.”
“Master Bai.”
Just as Bai Wenjing was about to leave, Su Yunjin suddenly spoke, “Master Bai, you are an elder, these matters shouldn’t be kept from you. Please sit and listen.”
Chen Jie also felt it slightly awkward to talk about Huang Wan’er with Su Yunjin at this time, so he intervened, “Yes, Master, please have a seat and listen. To be honest, that Huang Wan’er is a…”
Chen Jie struggled to find the right words.
At that moment, Su Yunjin smiled and said, “A confidante.”
Chen Jie gratefully looked at Su Yunjin. His wife truly understood him.
Bai Wenjing, upon hearing this, paused and then spoke, “Ordinarily, as your master, I shouldn’t meddle in your family affairs. However, Jiusi.”
“Master!”
Chen Jie responded immediately.
Bai Wenjing continued, “Yunjin has suffered so much and faced so many hardships for you, all of which I’ve seen with my own eyes. So, having a mistress or whatever is not important, but you must not betray Yunjin, or else I won’t let you off easily. Understand?”
Chen Jie replied, “Master, rest assured, Yunjin and I are one. Chen will not leave Su, and Su will not leave Chen.”
Chen Jie looked at Su Yunjin, who nodded and said, “Yes, Master.”

Bai Wenjing added, “Good, I’m relieved to hear that your affection remains as before. But, Jiusi!”
Chen Jie looked at Bai Wenjing, who then said, “There are so many women in the world, why did you have to choose Nan Batian’s woman? You’re too bold and reckless!”
Chen Jie, looking distressed, replied, “Master, I was forced into it at the time. I was framed by Feng Xuan. Later, I met Huang Wan’er, and then she gave me the prescription for the Energy Transformation Pill and two crucial ingredients…”
Chen Jie explained the situation, and Su Yunjin was hearing about Chen Jie’s dealings with Huang Wan’er for the first time.
In fact, she was quite bothered by the affair between Chen Jie and Huang Wan’er all along, just never mentioned it. Hearing it now, there were so many stories behind it, and Huang Wan’er’s situation seemed truly pitiable.
She had even been domestically abused by Nan Batian’s family.
This reminded her of her own vulnerable and helpless past when she was ruthlessly beaten by Chen Jiusi. How desperate she had been at that time!
Huang Wan’er’s experiences deeply touched her, and she also realized how much Huang Wan’er had helped her husband.
Thinking about this, Huang Wan’er said, “Husband, quickly see what Sister Huang has written. If you hadn’t told me today, I wouldn’t have known how much Sister Huang has helped you. I must sincerely thank Sister Huang when I get the chance.”
Chen Jie, looking baffled, said to her, “You want to thank her?”
Su Yunjin, looking at Chen Jie, said, “Husband, don’t see me as so narrow-minded. Female virtue states that jealousy in a woman is wrong, and Sister Huang indeed helped you a lot. We must be grateful and reciprocate.”
Chen Jie believed that Su Yunjin genuinely wanted to thank Huang Wan’er, but to him, a man with modern thinking, this sounded completely fantastical.
Did women in this world really not know what jealousy was?
However, for Su Yunjin, this wasn’t unacceptable. In this world, any capable man had multiple wives and concubines, and as long as they truly cared for their husband, Su Yunjin could accept them.
Especially after learning how much Huang Wan’er had helped her husband and that she too had a similarly tragic background.
She was now reassured, her husband had completely changed. Yes, Su Yunjin believed her husband was indeed transformed, not the gambler Chen Jiusi she used to know.
Whether in his manner of speaking, insights, or sometimes oddly sensible remarks, everything confirmed that her husband was a completely different person, not the same man as before.
Maybe it was a spirit possession, or perhaps a divine being had descended.
But no matter what, Su Yunjin was not frightened because she believed her current husband would not harm her.
Thus she didn’t care whether her current husband was the previous Chen Jiusi or not, for she loved only the man he had become now.
