I'm Stunned! The Concubine Fled with Her Child and Returned with an Army at the Gates

[Household intrigue + possessive pursuit + heroine plays the pig to eat the tiger + fleeing while pregnant]

The Xu family next door has taken a new second wife, a beautiful, frail woman who looks as though a gust of wind could topple her.

Before the bride can even enter the Xu household, Zhou Xingyu stops her sedan chair in the street and puts his hands on her waist.

Cheng Shiyuan immediately slaps him. The shock triggers her heart condition, leaving her pale as a sheet.

Later, during the wedding ceremony, the Xu family’s eldest son cannot walk properly. That bastard Zhou Xingyu brings in a thousand soldiers, blocks the entrance, and forcibly takes the groom’s place.

In the bridal chamber, he lifts her veil and gets slapped again.

At first, Zhou Xingyu suspects Cheng Shiyuan is a spy sent by the enemy army.

Then he wonders if she’s some enchanting demoness.

Later, the bastard kidnaps her and keeps her by his side. By then, all he cares about is that she’s his precious darling.

During a siege, military plans are leaked, and he is ambushed by the enemy, left gravely wounded and unconscious.

When he wakes, all that remains is a letter of divorce.

Everyone says Cheng Shiyuan was the spy.

Zhou Xingyu refuses to believe it. His delicate wife gets tired after three steps and needs him to carry her. Where could she possibly have gone?

Three years later, he attacks Yunzhou.

His army surrounds the city for months but still can’t break through. Just as he is about to use newly developed firearms to blast open the gates, a little boy who looks almost exactly like his darling wife appears atop the wall and calls him “Dad.”

Zhou Xingyu is stunned. He’s completely dumbfounded.
