Chapter 81

His throat was hoarse, and his murderous intent was so frightening.

This is the momentum accumulated from countless killings, and only a great general guarding a region in the army can have it.

Even though it is in such a mess, no one dares to underestimate it.

It was getting late, the dew was heavy, and the autumn wind was chilly. Two men, both of whom were outstanding among men, stood facing each other in the night.

Pei Yuqing narrowed his eyes slightly and said seriously, "She has never been yours, Lu Ziyan. She has long given up on wanting you."

She didn't want you anymore...

"Shut up!" Lu Ziyan suddenly froze, a chill emanating from his body, "Give her back to me!"

"That won't do," Pei Yuqing smiled slowly and said softly, "That's the girl I managed to coax into my arms, how can I give her up to someone else?"

The girl whom you don't know how to cherish and treat coldly is the treasure that others desire but cannot get.

He had almost given up hope, but something gave him a glimmer of hope.

Thinking of this, Pei Yuqing curled his lips and smiled, with some sarcasm in his smile: "Since you chose to treat her coldly in the first place, you should be prepared for today. If you make a mistake once, it will be a mistake for the rest of your life. Just accept your fate."

Just accept your fate?
Lu Ziyan looked at the red silk wedding characters hanging all over the garden, put away his spear, closed his eyes and calmed down, and said: "Everyone in the capital knows that the person in her heart is me, but she married you in a hurry because she was angry with me."

"She is young and acts rashly. You are eleven years older than her. Aren't you taking advantage of her by indulging her in making mistakes?"

Pei Yuqing clasped his fingers tightly in his sleeves, his face as gloomy as water.

If he was more confident, he should ask back now.

Why do you think that the girl has you in her heart?

Why can't it be me?
Perhaps she was not confident enough, because the person who said this was the boy she had been pursuing for many years without any concealment.

A man who was domineering, hot-blooded and reckless for her and broke into the Duke of Pei's mansion at night.

The person on the other side remained silent for a long time and did not refute, which injected a little warmth into Lu Ziyan's cold heart.

He moved his lips, his voice trembling slightly: "Give her back to me. As long as you give her back to me, I won't take today's incident to heart, and from now on, I, Lu Ziyan, owe you a life."

This man of steel and integrity was so cautious in his words that it was touching to hear him.

Pei Yuqing's eyes flashed with complex colors, and he slowly shook his head to refuse: "She is already my wife, and she will only be my wife in the future."

"She will regret it!" Lu Ziyan's voice suddenly turned cold, and he rushed towards Pei Yuqing with a spear in his hand: "I did something wrong, and she married you to punish me, but one day she will regret it!"

Pei Er on the side wanted to raise his sword to block Lu Ziyan's spear, but Pei Yuqing took the lead and grabbed it.

The man who rarely gets angry now has a cold voice and cold eyes. He looks at the person on the other end of the spear and says, "She said she won't regret it."

Lu Ziyan's eyes darkened: "I don't believe it, I want to ask her in person."

But how could Pei Yuqing let him enter her new house so easily?

If Lu Ziyan wants to get in, he can only force his way in.

He leaped forward and came a few steps closer to the bridal chamber, but was soon surrounded by a group of guards.

After traveling for several days and nights, and suffering from several wounds and bleeding profusely, even the strongest man would be at the end of his strength.

Lu Ziyan looked at the door not far away and shouted, "Xie Wanning, come out!"

"You come out!"

After Pei Yuqing left, the sound of swords clashing continued to come in from outside the door, and it was getting closer and closer. Xie Wan Ning in the room tightly held Er Qing's hand. She was originally very nervous, but when she heard Lu Ziyan's shout, she was stunned. She had heard Lu Ziyan say many things, the childish words when he was young, the cold words when he grew up, the angry voice when he was entangled in breaking off the engagement, and the heartless words in the dream.

But she never thought that Lu Ziyan could have such intense emotional fluctuations.

The sound was like the howl of a wolf king when he lost his mate.

Her heart suddenly tightened and she subconsciously looked out the window.

Through the thin gauze window, you can vaguely see a crowd of people outside, and there are quite a few people gathered.

Lu Ziyan's attack seemed to have reached the door, and seemed to have been finally subdued, but he was still calling her name in his mouth.

"Girl..." Er Qing said nervously, "Isn't Prince Lu really going to break in?"

Xie Wan Ning had no time to answer. She heard the sound of swords clashing outside suddenly stop. She was still wondering if Lu Ziyan was really subdued, when she heard a sudden loud bang.

The door was knocked open from the outside, and Lu Ziyan, covered in blood, appeared in front of her. His scarlet eyes fell on her, and the corners of his lips pulled into a smile, "Wanwan, why don't you come out?"

Er Qing screamed in shock and stood in front of Xie Wan Ning.

Lu Ziyan was so blood-thirsty that he took a few steps forward and raised his spear to knock away the person who was blocking him.

“Don’t hurt her!” Xie Wan Ning hurriedly pulled Er Qing behind her, her voice trembling with fear: “Lu Ziyan, are you crazy?”

Lu Ziyan looked at her steadily, and said word by word: "Did you hear me calling you? Why didn't you come out!"

With a creaking sound.

The door was closed and Pei Yuqing walked in, but the guards were all outside and did not come in.

He looked at the neatly dressed girl, apologetically, and asked, "Are you scared?"

Xie Wan Ning pursed her lips and looked at him without saying anything.

Pei Yuqing paused for a moment, his eyes fell on the man who was almost unable to stand, and he said calmly: "The person that Master Lu risked his life to see has been seen. If you have anything to ask, just ask it in front of me."

Ignoring his rival's ridicule, Lu Ziyan's greedy eyes never left the girl.

Xie Wan Ning was annoyed by the infatuated gaze. Both of them were a worry.

Lu Ziyan is, and so is Pei Yuqing.

One uses a knife, the other one plays tricks.

If it weren't for the instructions from this seemingly gentle man, she believed that even if Lu Ziyan had great abilities, he would not be able to break through the layers of guards and enter this new house.

What is the purpose of creating this scene?
Xie Wan Ning took a deep breath, feeling annoyed and irritated.

After barely controlling his emotions, he looked at Lu Ziyan who was waiting for an answer and asked, "Why should I go out?"

"Today is my wedding day. If you want to have a cup of wedding wine, you should go to the front hall. The bridal chamber does not accept male guests."

Lu Ziyan blinked very slowly, and when he saw that the girl had changed out of her wedding dress, his eyes dimmed, as if he could no longer hold on. He suddenly bent his knees, and knelt on one knee on the ground with the spear in his hand.

"Wanwan, come home with me," he stretched out his hand to her stubbornly, "I know I was wrong, I will accept any punishment you want to give me, come home with me, okay?"

His outstretched hand was just a little bit away from touching her long skirt.

Pei Yuqing, whose expression could not be seen, tensed his back instantly and looked straight at the hand with his eyes lowered.
