?
"You took that away from me as well," Gu Chaoyan stated bluntly. "Have you ever fulfilled what I asked for? Have you given me the Fire Lotus flower? Why are you doubting me?"
"…"
"Zhou Huaijin is the only one who has the right to question whether I have treated the civilians poorly." Gu Chaoyan locked eyes with him, her resolve unwavering.
Ouyang Mingjing furrowed his brow.
Only Zhou Huaijin?
Then what did that make him?
The marriage between the City Lord and the Pheonix Girl had been a longstanding tradition. What mistake had he made?
He had invested so much of his energy into her and had shown her the respect befitting the City Lord's wife.
What more could he have done?
Why?
Why did she always act as if she had no involvement?
Why could she be so heartless and indifferent?
"Zhou Huaijin is already dead, and he is alone in Snow Territory. Without clothes or medicine, how long can he survive? Just give up!" Ouyang Mingjing revealed the truth without reservation.
He had nothing left to fear.
He might as well be direct with her.
Gu Chaoyan displayed no emotions on her face because she knew all too well what Zhou Huaijin was like. And just as she had suspected, he had been aware of everything.
But she remained expressionless.
Ouyang Mingjing despised her.
His expression twisted, and he advanced towards her with aggression. Lingyun, sensing something was amiss, attempted to intervene, but Ouyang Mingjing employed his magical power to forcefully push her away. The other maids in the room were all loyal to Zhou Huaijin, so they remained passive.
Ouyang Mingjing approached Gu Chaoyan with hostility.
Yet she maintained the same impassive expression on her face.
As if there was no one standing before him.
Ouyang Mingjing detested her calm demeanor. She only displayed emotions in the presence of Zhou Huaijin.
But that was far from the truth!
He couldn't shake off Elder Man's words from his mind. "If she becomes pregnant with your child, she won't be able to escape."
However…
He didn't want to waste any more mental energy pondering over this.
Ouyang Mingjing drew nearer, and Gu Chaoyan sensed that he had ulterior motives.
She never anticipated that Ouyang Mingjing, no matter how enraged he was, would stoop to such actions. But he did!
She swiftly rose to her feet, taking several steps back while gripping the hilt of her white jade sword.
Fearlessness coursed through her veins. She could simply…
Ouyang Mingjing utilized his magical power to pull Gu Chaoyan towards him, trapping her in place, rendering her unable to move.
Finally, a different expression crossed Gu Chaoyan's face. The previous calmness had dissipated entirely.
However…
Disgust now radiated from her.
She despised Ouyang Mingjing's proximity.
Why?
Why did she always wear a smile in front of Zhou Huaijin when she loathed him?
He couldn't accept it.
Even if he hadn't truly fallen for her, he was obligated to do so.
Ouyang Mingjing drew nearer, his gaze fixed upon her. "Zhou Huaijin is dead."
"…"
"Our wedding was not a pretense, not from the beginning to the end."
"…"
"Snow Territory is a realm of treacherous unpredictability. Once you're in, there's no escape."
"Is that so?" Gu Chaoyan remained unfazed, unthreatened.
Ouyang Mingjing's eyes reddened as he bent down.
