Chapter 701: Chapter 703: Dengdeng has been Poisoned by the Insect

Bai Ruozhu, afraid of misunderstandings from her mother, explained in a low voice, "Chang Sheng was adopted by his master as a child and grew up with his three martial siblings. Later, his master told Wu Wanqing to choose a husband from among them. She chose the eldest martial brother, yet her heart lingered on Chang Sheng."

Lin Ping'er sneered, "That's utterly unbecoming of a woman."

"Chang Sheng fell off a cliff by accident and suffered serious internal injuries. He was supposed to return to us, but he encountered mountain bandits and had to send a letter to his master. However, the one who came was Wu Wanqing," Bai Ruozhu continued slowly, "At that time, Wu Wanqing's husband was still alive. She confessed her feelings to Chang Sheng who promptly told her that he was already married. In her anger, Wu Wanqing placed a poisonous insect on him that made him forget about the time he spent with us."
