234 Let Him Live First
Xuanyuan Yu only saw Mo Beiyuan and Yun Ran outside and did not notice that there was someone lying on the bed in the inner room.
Seeing that he was here, Yun Ran pointed to the inner room. “We saved someone from the secret room of the Prime Minister’s residence. Why don’t you go and see if she’s Bai Wan?”
Xuanyuan Yu’s tall and straight body suddenly trembled. Yun Ran’s words fell on him like a huge rock falling from the sky, almost stunning him.
“Bai Wan? You mean Bai Wan…”
Xuanyuan Yu’s voice trembled slightly. He had been searching for her for more than 20 years, and now he was suddenly so close. Every step he took seemed to weigh a thousand pounds. He was both excited and afraid, afraid that it would be another disappointment.
Step by step, he approached the bed and realized that there was a person in the corner of the bed. Her hair was very long, and her messy long hair almost covered her entire body. That person lowered her head and her body was curled up.
Xuanyuan Yu held his breath and stared at her, his heart pounding.
His throat rolled as he called out softly, “Wanwan…”
The person was still hugging her legs and sitting curled up. She did not look up at him.
Xuanyuan Yu wanted to confirm if she was Bai Wan, so he could only approach her and raise her head, which was buried in her knees.
Even though the face of the person in front of him was covered in scars of varying depths, Xuanyuan Yu could confirm at a glance that the person before him was Bai Wan, the only woman he loved in his life!
“Wan Wan… It’s me, Yu.”
Xuanyuan Yu pulled her into his arms forcefully and stroked her back gently. When he realized that his palm was filled with bones, his heart ached.
“Wan Wan, it’s okay. It’s okay… With me around… I’m strong enough now. I’m Emperor Wu’an. I can protect you and our child.”
Xuanyuan Yu didn’t know that the skinny woman in his arms had a look in her eyes when he mentioned the child.
Yun Ran was now certain that the person in front of her was Bai Wan, the one who had been missing for more than twenty years.
“Wan Wan, do you hate me for not protecting you well? Is that why you’re unwilling to talk to me?”
At this moment, Xuanyuan Yu no longer had the aura of a tyrant. He carefully coaxed the woman in his arms; his eyes were filled with deep love.
Yun Ran felt that she might need to explain it to him. “It’s not that she’s ignoring you, but she doesn’t seem to be able to speak.”
As for why she couldn’t speak, Huo Chanyi should be able to find out when she arrived later.
“You found her in the Yun family? So, it was that bastard Yun Zhiyuan who did this to her! Right?”
Xuanyuan Yu’s sharp gaze was filled with killing intent, and his eyes were ruthless and wanton.
Yun Ran nodded. “We found her in the underground dark room of the Yun family’s ancestral hall. She was chained up. As far as I know, Yun Zhiyuan often goes to the ancestral hall to stay. No one else from the Yun Family is allowed to go near that hall.”
Hence, Yun Zhiyuan was probably responsible for Bai Wan’s condition.
Xuanyuan Yu’s eyes were filled with violence, and his eyeballs were bloodshot. “You guys guard her. I’ll kill Yun Zhiyuan.”
His woman had been tortured to this extent. If he could still tolerate it, what kind of man would he be?
He wanted to kill Yun Zhiyuan. Of course, Yun Ran had no objections, but Bai Wan was clearly not in her right mind and could not speak. If Yun Ziyuan died, there would be no way to confront what had happened back then.
“I suggest that you let him live first. It won’t be too late to kill him after you figure out what happened back then. In my opinion, Yun Zhiyuan is definitely not the only person in the Yun family who knows about imprisoning Bai Wan.”
