I want to make progress

Chapter 16 Sharp
Caught off guard, her back hit the bed heavily. Sharp pain instantly broke out in her back, and her neck was so painful that her face turned red.

Her pale brows were furrowed in pain, but there was no trace of panic in her eyes.

"Cough...cough..."

After coughing a few times in discomfort, Shu Yunfu's voice remained steady, her eyes sharp, "Second Master, are you going to kill me for Aunt Qin?"

"If Second Master didn't kill me back then, then he can't kill me now!"

The silver needle on her fingertip flashed and pierced directly into the numb point on Gu Changheng's hand, easily saving herself from his iron hand.

"Cough cough cough... cough cough..."

"what have you done!"

Grasping his numb hand, which was unable to move, Gu Changheng was filled with shock and anger, his eyes full of disbelief, and he even dared not move the silver needle in his hand.

She stroked her neck and coughed several times before she found her voice again. She looked up at him with moist eyes and a hint of red at the corners of her eyes. "I'm just protecting myself."

"You should have known from the beginning that I am not a dodder. I have you in my heart, so I can devote myself to you and become a lowly concubine. But I also want to live. If you provoke me, I can do anything and dare to do anything."

"So Second Master, please think twice before doing anything." Facing his eyes that were about to eat someone, she had a smile on her lips, and there was no fear in her eyes. She raised her hand and pulled out the silver needle. "Otherwise, if something happens to me, then Second Master and that nobleman will probably have to accompany me in my worthless life."

With curved eyebrows and covered mouth, she smiled, "If it's more serious, the entire Duke of Ying will probably have to pay the price for this. With the Second Master accompanying me, it seems not bad even if we die together!"

Different from the flattery and humility when they first met, and also very different from the gentleness and timidity along the way, for the first time Shu Yunfu showed her sharpness and madness in front of Gu Changheng.

She is not a harmless little white flower, but a rose with thorns. She is beautiful, but if he really wants to destroy her, this flower will make him pay with blood.

"You lunatic! You're threatening me!"

At this moment, Gu Changheng no longer had the joy and pride of being loved. There was only terrifying murderous intent flashing in his eyes, and his expression was even worse than when he was restrained by Shu Yunfu.

Suddenly I felt that it was a huge mistake to listen to this woman's slander and bring the person back to the mansion. This woman pretended to be as harmless as a little white rabbit, but in fact she was so crazy inside.

Now that his goal has been achieved, his true colors have been revealed. It is too dangerous to have such a person around. Mistakes are meant to be corrected, and it is not too late to correct them now.

"Ha ha……"

She laughed again, bending over with laughter. After she had laughed enough, Shu Yunfu raised her head to meet his eyes, her eyes full of surprise, "Second Master, if you think so, then so be it!"

"you!"

"I am a small person, of low status. I cannot compare to the Second Master's high position and power, nor can I compare to the illustrious authority of the Duke of England. Big people have their own way of living, and small people have their own way of survival."

Surrounded by the cold murderous intent, Shu Yun brushed her hair without moving, curled her lips calmly, and clenched her white fingers painted with red nail polish into fists, "I'm really not used to having my life in the hands of others. It's more reassuring to hold my life in my own hands, even if it's Second Master."

She gave him a cute head tilt, her eyes pure and innocent, "Second Master would agree too, right?"

"Otherwise, the Second Master wouldn't have kept poisoning me all the way. He wanted to control me. This is probably just in case." Damn man! He actually poisoned her!

If she didn't have the Life Grass and took its gel regularly, she would have been poisoned!
As expected, one cannot have any hope for these young masters from powerful families. None of them are good people. They clearly have her indenture contract in their hands, and they are obviously satisfied with her infatuation, but they even try to control her with chronic poison and want to kill her. They are really vicious!
She cursed in her heart, but put her hands behind her back, stood on tiptoe, and puffed her cheeks innocently, "But Second Master, please don't do such things in the future. Although I love you, I also cherish my life. I just want to be with you for a long time."

"If you don't show up in public for five consecutive days, my people will pass the five secret letters I wrote in advance to the emperor through different channels. Then you will really have to die with me."

"Amazing!" Seeing her harmless smile, Gu Changheng wanted to eat her up. He squeezed out two words from his teeth in hatred, "I didn't know you were so capable. I really underestimated you. It's a waste of your talent to let you be my concubine!"

"Thank you for the compliment, Second Master!" A blush appeared on her cheeks and she lowered her head embarrassedly.

"I can't help it. It was because I accidentally discovered your secret. It's really bad for you to talk about secrets in public."

Speaking of this matter, Shu Yunfu sighed, her voice full of resentment, "If it weren't for Second Master's carelessness, I would have been able to 'leave the sea wide for fish to leap, and the sky high for birds to fly', and I wouldn't be competing with Second Master like this."

Did he really think she wanted to marry him as a concubine? If it weren't for this bastard's carelessness, even if he ran away and became a wanted criminal, it would be better than what he is now.

"But it's okay. I can finally become Second Master's person."

"Second Master wants to keep his secrets, but I just want to stay by your side forever. I don't ask for you to like me, I just want to be able to look at you forever. Why does Second Master treat me like this? I have no hostility towards you. I am really sad that you are like this."

Yue~
No, she couldn’t continue making up stories. She wanted to vomit!
"Don't be so delusional! How can you be so worthy? I feel sick just looking at you. Don't forget that your indenture is still in my hands. You'd better behave yourself!"

But it was obvious that Gu Changheng didn't like Shu Yunfu's madness, but when he thought that her madness was all because of her love for him, he felt strangely proud in his heart.

From then on, Gu Changheng became more and more arrogant, and looked down on Shu Yunfu more and more. In his eyes, Shu Yunfu was just an ant, not even worthy of him looking down at her.

But now the ant suddenly turned around and turned into a dangerous poisonous snake, which not only brought him a sense of danger, but he would not allow the ant in his palm to become out of control, he would never allow that.

"Then sell me out, Master!"

Spreading his hands, Shu Yun wanted to brush off the bachelor, but unfortunately, he didn't dare.

If he dared, she would really admire him, but unfortunately, Gu Changheng is not Gu Changting. He doesn't have the ability to control himself, nor does he have the courage to overturn the table, but she dares!

Looking at the man who left angrily after leaving a few words telling her to take care of herself, Shu Yunfu yawned with her hands covering her mouth. Really, she didn't expect that we would fall out so quickly. She didn't expect that Gu Changheng was not only incompetent, but also a violent domestic violence man.

For the sake of her own personal safety, she had to break up with him. It would be bad if she got hurt. She just had to maintain her image of being obsessed with him, which made her even more disgusted. However, she had to do this for the sake of long-term stability.

Oh! It’s better not to do this kind of thing too often. If it happens too often, she might get sick and develop anorexia!
Now, she and Gu Changheng are like gamblers who treat themselves as stakes at the gambling table. They can see each other's cards clearly, but if they reveal them, both of them will perish.

Both of them hold their cards tightly and maintain a delicate balance, so the gambling table can remain calm and will not be overturned.

Shu Yunfu's bet was only her own life, while Gu Changheng's bet was not only himself, but also his sweetheart, and even his power, status and wealth.
