One of the more quick-witted maidservants quietly retreated upon seeing this turn of events and rushed off to report to the matriarch.

Not too far off, the waiting Miaozhen had suffered a fright. Eldest... Eldest Young Madam had actually hit the heir!

By the time she regained her senses, she quickly ran over to He Changqi's side and pulled out a handkerchief to cover the wound on his forehead.

Her voice was choked up with anxiety as she said, "Heir Jing'an, you've been hurt! Quick, we have to call the imperial physicians!"

Madam Zou froze upon seeing the blood on He Changqi’s face, her wits completely gone. However, upon seeing that slut Miaozhen still trying to spoil the relationship between her and her husband at a time like this, her quelled rage reignited once again. She lost all semblance of rationality as her eyes reddened due to her anger and fury within.

"You little bitch! How dare you speak in front of me?!" Right after Madam Zou shouted, she bent down and picked up one of the porcelain shards on the ground, intending to throw it at Miaozhen.

Having seen what had happened to He Changqi, Madam Zou's maidservants reacted much faster this time and quickly ran up to stop her.

Madam Zou's trusted senior servant cried out, "My Eldest Young Madam, please stop acting so rashly!"

He Changqi stared Madam Zou straight in the eyes with a cold glare as icy as the tundra. He reached out and pulled Miaozhen behind him, shielding her. His tone was colder than ever as he told his wife, "Madam Zou. I want to see how far you're going to take this madness today!"

After the maidservants took the porcelain shard from Madam Zou's hands, she looked up only to see her normally loving husband staring at her with cold eyes. When she saw that He Changqi was actually protecting another woman behind him, the final string in her mind snapped.

She screamed shrilly like a mad harpy and charged towards He Changqi recklessly, already beyond caring.

He Changqi ignored the fresh blood flowing down from his forehead and continued watching Madam Zou descend into madness with half of his stony face covered in blood.

He couldn't get his mind around how his warm and caring wife had suddenly turned into this... this person he didn't recognise at all!

For so many years, he could swear on his conscience that he hadn't mistreated Madam Zou in any manner. The He Family's rules were strict and he hadn't taken any concubines. Furthermore, he hadn't fooled around with other women outside the estate, either. Even when out with his friends, he always drew the line.

Although he and Madam Zou still hadn't been able to get a son, they had everything else together. He had never pushed Madam Zou on the matter of carrying on the next generation.

He had also secretly considered what to do if he never had any sons in his life. Since he still had two brothers down the line, it wasn't necessarily just up to him to carry on the family line. As long as he and his wife remained harmonious, Grandmother wouldn't say anything more.

However, before he had been able to tell all this to Madam Zou, she had somehow changed.

He Dalang's heart instantly turned as desolate as the wild plains of Liangzhou. The image of his brilliant and virtuous wife seemed to have abruptly shattered and vanished into nothing.
