stern wife

Chapter 714 Did You Ever Like Me?
Baili Lieyuan looked at her, full of thoughts.

Many things that I hadn't figured out before, now seem to be awakened by someone suddenly, and I realize it instantly.

No wonder such a young girl is so calm, stable, and has such a tenacious heart.

It turned out to be the case.

But, does this have anything to do with what he wants to know?

Could it be that the two of them had known each other in previous lives?

As if seeing his question, Pei Xiaoran nodded, then shook his head again.

She said:

"His Royal Highness and I did not know each other in the previous life, but because of His Highness's words, my reputation was completely ruined, and even... all my families were killed."

Baili Lieyuan's heart trembled, and she was confused again, she asked puzzledly:

"What did the king say?"

Pei Xiaoran said:

"His Highness praised me."

Baili Lieyuan suddenly laughed.

He said from the bottom of his heart:
"Isn't it normal for a person like you to be praised by everyone regardless of past or present?"

Others don't mention it for the time being, but only Baili Lieyuan herself, although she is often "offended" by this little hedgehog.

However, he has always admired her for what she has done and dared to do.

A trace of mockery appeared on Pei Xiaoran's face.

She emphasized her tone and said word by word:

"However, I didn't know His Highness in previous lives, so why would His Highness praise me?"

Baili Lieyuan rubbed her chin and speculated:
"Could it be because this king has heard about your deeds?"

Pei Xiaoran sneered and said:
"But what His Highness praised was not Xiaoran's deeds, but Xiaoran's appearance!"

Before she died in her previous life, she had heard from Zhu Lianxi that the prince of the enemy country had praised her for her beauty over and over again!
Because of this, Zhu Lianxi believed the fabricated letters between Pei Huayu and the enemy prince.

Baili Lieyuan was completely confused.

She hesitated:

"Let's not talk about whether this king will praise a person's appearance because of his appearance.

Just say that if you and I didn't know each other in the previous life, why would this king praise your appearance?Is not this contradictory? "

How can you praise someone you've never met?
"Why?"

Pei Xiaoran's words were even more cold, saying:

"I don't know if His Royal Highness Li Wang still remembers, when I was helping His Highness find the lost jade pendant, I once asked His Highness a question.

If His Highness had never met a person, under what circumstances would he praise this person's appearance? "

Baili Lieyuan raised her head, recalling seriously.

It seems that there is such a thing.

How did he answer at that time?

It seems that what he replied was that if he was given enough benefits, he could reluctantly praise that person or something...

Thinking of this, His Royal Highness Li Wang's confused expression instantly turned into a daze.

Then he said dumbfoundedly:
"That's just me joking with you!

As a lord, what have I ever lacked?And how could he do something insincere just because of a little bribe from others? ! "

Pei Xiaoran was completely unmoved, and said:
"If you haven't done it in this life, it doesn't mean you haven't done it in your previous life."

Baili Lieyuan fell silent for a moment.

How could he, a person in this life, know about the past life?

How do you know if it's true or not?
However, looking at Pei Xiaoran's ice-cold eyes and the deep hatred in them.

He knew that the other party's 'absurd' remarks about the past life were definitely not made up.

Could it be that he really did such evil things in his previous life?

Baili Lieyuan felt that according to his own character, it should be impossible.

What kind of person are you, don't you know yourself?

Even if his words and deeds are a bit harsh sometimes, it's just a disguise of his own protective color, and he will never hurt others.

It is absolutely impossible for him to open his mouth to slander an innocent woman who has never met and has no grudges because of taking a bribe.

Maybe there is some misunderstanding in it.

However, Baili Lieyuan did not open her mouth to defend herself.

He just sighed lightly, and then apologized very sincerely:
"sorry."

Those stunningly beautiful eyes looked straight at Pei Xiaoran, without evading or shirking responsibility, but said in a serious tone:

"Since this king has harmed you so miserably and done such unforgivable things.

Then, this king is willing to pay with his life.

This king knows that this king has caused you to be executed all over the house, and this king's life alone is not enough.

However, this king does not let go of his thoughts, and hopes that you will show mercy to her.

This kind of kindness, if there is a next life, this king will definitely repay you by being an ox or a horse. "

After finishing speaking, he really took out a self-defense dagger from his wide sleeve, and put it in front of Pei Xiaoran.

Afraid that Pei Xiaoran would have any concerns, he said again:
"If you want to do it now, then the king will call Qin Guan, explain the whole story to him, and make a written statement, stamping the seal of the king.

That way, no one will bother you. "

If he is killed, his people will definitely not let Pei Xiaoran go.

So, he had to make arrangements in advance.

Even though he knew that Qin Guan would try his best to stop it after learning about it, he would never waver.

Anyway, he is the master, and he has the final say on everything.

Pei Xiaoran's gaze fell on the dagger involuntarily.

The small dagger was ornately decorated, and was inlaid with a ruby ​​of brilliant color.

But no matter how beautiful the appearance is, it still cannot conceal the fact that it is a murder weapon that can kill people.

In Pei Xiaoran's mind, scenes about the past life began to emerge uncontrollably.

After she was framed, she was tortured and beaten every day and night.

When her sister-in-law and nephews were humiliated because of her.

When you are slapped in the face by the person you love the most and then ruthlessly abandoned.

When he was tortured to death by the excruciating pain like a raging fire.

When the blood stained the ground in front of me...

Everything started because of the man in front of her.

He was not the murderer who killed her, but she died because of him.

Also, her family...

Pei Xiaoran's mind was in a trance for a moment.

When she regained her senses, she found that she had grasped the dagger without knowing when.

Seeing this, Baili Lieyuan did not show any surprise, but understood Pei Xiaoran's decision very well.

Because, if it were him, even if he loved another person, he would not tolerate that the other person had killed his family.

Moreover, for some reason, seeing Pei Xiaoran make such a choice, he felt an inexplicable sense of relief in his heart.

It's better to die than to spend half your life living what you want and not get, right?

The corners of Baili Lieyuan's lips hooked slightly, she smiled beautifully, and said softly:
"Before I call Qin Guan in, can I... ask you one last thing?"

Pei Xiaoran said subconsciously:

"what?"

Baili Lieyuan looked at her, his eyes reflected the candlelight, as if stars were twinkling, and said slowly:

"Since you met me, have you...have you ever been tempted by me, even for a moment?"
