Chapter 107
He had a ferocious expression and looked terrifying, but his eyes were clearly trembling and his lips were shaking as well.
Xie Wan Ning could tell at a glance that he was scared to death at the moment.
There was no longer the calmness and ease as before.
She felt a strange sense of relief in her heart.
It turns out that what Prince Lu fears most is her death.
Want to try it?
Being strangled by the neck didn't actually affect her speech much, but rather her excessive excitement made it impossible for her to utter a single sound.
After a long time, he finally felt that he could breathe. Xie Wan Ning held his wrist at his neck and gave him a sad smile: "Okay, let's try it. How did you treat them?"
"I'm telling you, Lu Ziyan, unless you remove my jaw, cut off my arms and legs, and have someone guard me day and night, otherwise, I will always seek death."
His jaw was removed, his hands and feet were cut off, and he was guarded day and night.
If there was any mistake, she would die without hesitation.
Pain overflowed from Lu Ziyan's eyes bit by bit. His eyes went dark and his face looked hideous due to the pain.
"Are you really not afraid of death?"
It seemed that he had suffered serious internal injuries. Blood was still flowing from the corner of his lips, and the bright red blood flowed faster when he opened his mouth.
He was in such a state of disgrace, but Xie Wan Ning felt no pity for him. She glared at him with hatred, "Compared to being entangled by you endlessly, death is indeed not that scary."
Such hurtful words caused the hand on the neck to loosen a little for a moment, but the next moment Lu Ziyan seemed to react and held it tightly again.
It's like holding your lifeline.
He was in so much pain that he couldn't speak. He just looked at her in this position, with no disguising the panic in his eyes. He looked at her almost pleadingly.
Being looked at in such a way, Xie Wan Ning was thinking that she probably really didn't love him at all.
Otherwise, why wouldn't she be moved at all, hesitate at all, or be tempted by his eyes at all?
She could even say to him with a smile: "I will really die, Lu Ziyan, are you going to force me to death again?"
Lu Ziyan looked at her with a pale face. She knew best how to hurt his heart the most and what to do to make him feel pain.
He closed his red eyes, like a lone wolf, digesting his emotions.
Xie Wan Ning began to try to break free from his restraints, but the slightest movement seemed to disturb something. The hand that was pinching her neck slowly moved to the back of her neck, and suddenly lifted her up with force.
Lu Ziyan lowered his head and leaned close to her ear, saying in a gentle voice: "My Wanwan is really brave... I just wonder if your parents and your Xie clan members can be as brave and fearless as you."
Xie Wan Ning froze and looked at him in disbelief.
Then he continued, "You may not know this, but in my previous life, it took me five years to conquer the world and ascend the throne. It probably won't take that long in this life. Do you believe it?"
His voice was obviously very gentle, and the warm breath spread from her ears to her limbs, but it only made her feel cold to the bone.
Yes, he would be an emperor.
He will be the supreme ruler of the world.
No one can disobey him.
The girl under him looked frightened, and Lu Ziyan unconsciously pinched her stiff neck to comfort her, but his tone became softer.
"I just want to be good to you. You don't have to do anything. Just stay by my side. I will bring the best in the world to you. Why do you have to resist me?"
"I know I owe you. I know you've suffered a lot around me. I will pay you back one by one in this life. I will double my compensation. Can you give me a chance?"
He bent down and kissed her forehead, and said gently: "Wanwan, come back to me, you will become the most noble woman in the world."
Xie Wan Ning blinked blankly, her eyes fixed on his slightly protruding Adam's apple, she stared at it in a daze.
What does it mean to use both kindness and severity?
That’s probably it.
First threaten with family members, then promise the highest fame, wealth and status.
A slap, a jellybean.
Can we only say that he is worthy of being a man who can ascend the throne as emperor?
If she had more sense, shouldn't she kneel down and thank him, the future emperor?
The room fell into deathly silence, and the movement outside became more obvious.
This time, even Xie Wan Ning could hear the footsteps.
The visitor seemed a little anxious, but did not dare to disturb anyone inside, so he was pacing back and forth outside.
Lu Ziyan didn't react at all. He stared at the girl in his arms without blinking, fearing that she would bite her tongue and commit suicide if he wasn't paying attention.
He never wanted to experience the feeling of the person in his arms growing colder and colder.
He said softly, "Let's stop making trouble, okay? As long as you promise me that you will divorce him, I will let you go back now, and I will do whatever you want in the future."
"Why do you have to force it?" Xie Wan Ning's eyes were slightly red, and she looked at him stubbornly, "Why can't you respect my wishes?"
"If your wish is to live with that sickly woman, how can you expect me to respect that?"
Lu Ziyan gently stroked her hair and said, "You loved me so much, how could you just stop loving me? Wanwan, you do love me, but I disappointed you and made you cold-hearted. Give me a chance, I can warm you up."
"As long as you give me a chance, we will go back to the beginning."
"But I don't want to." Xie Wan Ning took a deep breath, and tears finally fell. "I don't want to. Do you really want to force me to death?"
"Don't use the Xie family to threaten me. After I die, I won't know anything about the world. Do you think..."
Lu Ziyan's eyes turned fierce: "Shut up!"
Xie Wan Ning looked him straight in the eyes and continued, "I will die, Lu Ziyan, I will really die."
She kept expressing her determination to die, but Lu Ziyan could do nothing but glare at her fiercely.
She was right, as long as she was ruthless and had no weaknesses, she would not be threatened.
Even if he had extraordinary powers, he couldn't do anything to someone who was determined to die.
Of course, if he really wanted to remove someone's jaw, pick at their meridians, and imprison them in a palace, that would be another matter.
But Lu Ziyan couldn't bear to do it. He couldn't bear to touch her even a finger.
He didn't even dare to bet whether she could be as cruel as he said.
Once he let her out of his sight, he would be worried that she would really commit suicide.
He would be terribly scared and in a constant state of anxiety.
How did it come to this?
How did it come to this!
Lu Ziyan's eyes were red, like a gambler who had lost all his chips, his face full of despair and despair.
"why?"
"Why are you doing this to me."
His eyelashes trembled slightly and tears fell.
A teardrop fell right on Xie Wan Ning's lips. Before she could wipe it away, many more fell.
Ice cold and salty to the point of being bitter.
"You loved me so much in the past," Lu Ziyan was extremely puzzled, his voice choked with sobs: "How can you be so cruel to me now?" Xie Wan Ning also recalled the stupid things she did in the past.
She is completely different from him. He can hide his feelings so deeply and restrain himself to the extreme.
But when she likes someone, she is very open and not stingy about it.
She liked it so much that she wanted to express it twenty points.
But no matter what, those likes were real, she really liked him.
The two of them have come to this point because of misunderstandings and hurts, but more importantly, they have incompatible personalities.
Xie Wan Ning raised her hand and pried open his fingers one by one. When the grip on his neck was no longer tight, she reached out and pushed his shoulder again.
Lu Ziyan froze for a moment, then slowly stood up.
After being pressed on the table by him for so long, Xie Wan Ning's waist was sore and she slowly stood up.
The two stood opposite each other.
After a few breaths of silence, she said, "You are a famous general who was invincible at a young age. You have been on the rise in your career without any setbacks. In your previous life, you even won the supreme position in the world. It has been a long time since anyone dared to refute you."
"You are always firm in what you say, and you don't allow others to refuse you. No matter what you want, no matter what your goal is, you will achieve it even if it means using any means."
Having said this, she paused.
"Perhaps it is true as you said. I am your obsession. You are bound by your inner demons and cannot accept that I marry someone else. So you abducted me here regardless of my wishes. You cannot accept that I no longer like you, so you use the lives of my parents and my people to force me to compromise."
"Indeed," she lowered her eyes and said, "You are in a high position, have great martial arts skills, and have many talented people under you. No matter how arrogant and domineering you are, no matter how reckless you act, the emperor will not really punish you for various reasons. You can indeed abduct me regardless of my wishes, even if you commit more outrageous things. It's up to you."
"You are very powerful, and I cannot stop you. But you asked me why I would rather die than compromise. I can answer you."
She pursed her lips, and the remaining moisture was touched by the tip of her tongue, and the salty and bitter taste attacked her taste buds again.
This is the taste of his tears.
Feeling a little dry in her throat, Xie Wan Ning pursed her lips and gently raised her eyes: "Because I am alone."
Her voice was hoarse and difficult to understand. Lu Ziyan listened in a trance, looking dazed and staring at her blankly.
Xie Wan Ning said: "I was also born in a prominent family. I have been well-read since I was young. I can think, I can get angry, I know honor and disgrace, and I have my own independent personality. I am not a wooden stake that you can manipulate."
If she became panic-stricken and compromised and obeyed him after receiving a few threats, she would be unworthy of the upbringing she received from the Xie family since childhood.
There are many people in this world who are afraid of death, but there is never a shortage of truly tough people.
If she had to succumb to his coercion and remarry into the Lu family, even if she could eventually become the queen, she would rather die.
"Have you made up your mind?" Xie Wan Ning smiled slightly and said, "Do you want a corpse, or are you willing to show mercy and let me live?"
The room fell silent again, and no one spoke.
After a long time, Lu Ziyan's eyelashes trembled slightly and he blinked gently, as if he finally understood the meaning of her words. He opened his lips and wanted to say something.
But he never uttered a word.
This is truly a threat of death.
But even his anger disappeared inexplicably.
He is indeed crazy.
He was so crazy that he almost forgot how stubborn his Wanwan was, which was why he kept threatening her so much.
Dead body.
The tragic past was still vivid in his mind. He didn't even dare to think about it, so how could he dare to face this word?
The eyes of the man opposite him unconsciously became obscure and indescribable. Xie Wanning clenched her hands under her sleeves, not knowing whether her desperate determination would work.
Can you shake him even a little bit?
She knew that if he was an enemy, she was betting on how much he cared about her life or death.
It sounds ridiculous, but she had to take the gamble. She wanted to live a peaceful life and didn't want to worry about being kidnapped by him even when she went out.
She couldn't even bring herself to stab him with the knife in her hand, so could he really bear to force her into a desperate situation?
Of course Lu Ziyan couldn't bear it, and his eyes fell on her quietly.
Seeing her nervousness and uneasiness, he said in the strange silence, "Answer me a question."
Without waiting for her to express her opinion, he asked directly.
"Do I still have a chance?"
As soon as the words fell, Xie Wan Ning was stunned, and his thoughts turned rapidly.
She had already experienced this man's mood swings, and if she rejected it outright, he might change his attitude again.
But...but she was unwilling to pretend to be nice to him no matter what.
"Wanwan," he said in a hoarse voice, "You really don't leave me any leeway and sentence me to lose you for life, I..."
At this point, he realized that his words had a threatening tone, so he paused and asked in a low voice: "Do I have a chance to win your heart back in this life?"
Xie Wan Ning hesitated for a few moments, then slowly spoke under his urgent gaze.
"Don't push me anymore," she raised her hand to wipe her lips, and said, "No one likes the feeling of being forced, and no girl will accept a man who forces himself on her."
"The more you push me, the more I will hate you, fear you, and stay away from you."
Lu Ziyan fell silent.
She refused to even say a perfunctory word, and was determined to draw a line between them and him, and wanted him to leave her world forever.
How could he do that?
Suddenly, a fire light appeared outside the window, and someone holding a torch walked quickly into the courtyard.
This time, the person who had been pacing outside finally couldn't help himself and reached out to knock on the door.
"Prince, someone is coming." Ming Jian's voice came from outside.
Xie Wan Ning's frozen body moved slightly and she turned her head to look towards the door.
At this moment, considering Ming Jian's tone, she couldn't think of any other answer except Pei Yuqing.
Lu Ziyan couldn't bear to see her hoping other men would rescue her from the fire pit.
"It came pretty quickly," he laughed coolly, his eyes falling on her rosy lips, "Do you think he can tell what we did?"
Just as he could see at a glance their intimacy in the carriage.
Jealous, Lu Ziyan's tone was sour and angry, "That sickly guy couldn't even get hard, yet he dared to kiss you."
Xie Wan Ning couldn't bear to hear him belittling Pei Yuqing like this, and glared at him with gritted teeth.
"You really protected him?" Lu Ziyan looked unhappy when she glared at him.
"Lu Ziyan," Xie Wan Ning said calmly, "He is my husband."
Lu Ziyan clenched his teeth, "No need to remind me."
Of course he knew about this. Even if they had not consummated their marriage, their names would appear as husband and wife on a marriage certificate.
Knowing that Pei Yuqing was here, Xie Wan Ning didn't want to talk to him any more and walked towards the door.
But he blocked his way.
