"I didn't lie to you, everything I said is true. I've seen his devoted face; he loves his wife very, very much. He must be lying to you." "He is indeed lying!" Jiang Nian pointed at the man in black armor below the city wall and reprimanded him. "Qi Heng is a big liar! He doesn't like me at all, but he's afraid of being called ungrateful. He's two-faced. In front of outsiders, he's so doting and affectionate, but behind people's backs..." Jiang Nian's eyes reddened, "Behind closed doors, he's not human, he's a beast! I'm tormented by him every day, covered in bruises. I'm just a weak woman, I dare not resist." Before the words were finished, silence fell over the city wall. Qi Heng was stunned; his wife's state truly surprised him. She still had the energy to scold him, which actually relieved him. Even more shocked was Qin Buyu. She knew better than anyone how loving the couple were; now, they were acting out a scene on the battlefield, seemingly in perfect unison.
