Chapter 522: Cut off Delusion
Lu Yunjue's emotionless voice rang in his ears: "If you don't tell the truth, I will kill you."
Miss Du bravely looked in his direction, only to see a pair of cold eyes on a face wrapped in bandages, which were even colder than the river water in early winter, chilling her to the core.
The young man has an upright posture and outstanding temperament. Standing with a sword in hand, he looks like a swordsman under the moon, but the sword tip against his neck is clearly murderous.
Time seemed to freeze in an instant. She didn't know how long it had been, or it seemed like just a short moment, before her thoughts slowly returned to her body.
"I'll say." She opened her mouth and realized her voice was so soft that it was almost inaudible.
So, she swallowed carefully again, not daring to put forward any conditions: "What do you want to ask? As long as I know it, I will tell you."
It was the first time for Hu Xiner and others to see Lu Yunjue like this. Although she was not afraid, she couldn't help but feel secretly shocked.
They are indeed brothers. Yun Jue looks exactly like Mu Qing when he is angry.
Lu Yunjue turned around and said to them, "Brother and sister-in-law, you go in first. I'll take care of this girl."
"Okay." Mu Qing agreed immediately, "Your sister-in-law really can't stand the cold."
The two turned around and were about to leave when they suddenly heard Miss Du say, "No, I don't agree!"
Lu Yunjue's face was full of indifference.
Miss Du pursed her lips slightly, her eyes instantly turned red. She tilted her neck stubbornly, crystal tears gathered in her bright eyes, and then fell one by one.
"She can't leave." Miss Du's voice trembled, and it was unclear whether it was out of fear or grievance. "What if you take the opportunity to kill me?"
Lu Yunjue turned his head away from her and said, "It depends on your performance."
Miss Du lowered her eyes, looking pitiful. Suddenly, a dark light flashed in her eyes. She said sullenly, "I am the eldest daughter of the Du family. How can I share a room with a stranger like you? How can I live my life in the future if you act like this?"
"Humph, you still care about this reputation?" Lu Yunjue scolded, "That's just a bunch of nonsense."
He felt that Miss Du was taking advantage of Hu Xin'er's soft heart, so she said such things.
However, Miss Du's suppressed sobs disturbed his thoughts.
This reminded him that she was a weak woman.
Lu Yunjue had received an orthodox gentleman's education since childhood. Today, he forced himself on a woman because he suspected that she had bad intentions and had no choice but to do so.
When he heard a woman sobbing under the tip of his sword, he couldn't help feeling a little uncomfortable.
Miss Du sobbed, "I swear on my life! I've never done anything evil. People say I've raped men, but I've never had any. Today is the first time I've climbed over someone's wall."
She glanced at the people next to her again, tears streaming down her face. "But that's because you two haven't left the house these past few days. I just wanted to see what you were doing at home. I don't mean any harm..."
Miss Du was pretending to cry at first, but now she felt more and more aggrieved. If she really had bad intentions, why not just bring her thugs to snatch the person away?
The Lu family has no roots in Qingzhou, and Zhou Chenghe alone can make them confused. If she, a lady from the Zhou family martial arts school, really wants to capture a man's heart, why should she be so sneaky?
Amid her crying, Lu Yunjue finally turned around.
Miss Du thought that she had made the man cry and soften his heart, and she couldn't help but feel happy in her heart - what Daddy said yesterday really worked, men are soft-hearted and will not tolerate toughness!
But then Lu Yunjue said coldly, "Do you dare to swear on the lives of your entire family? If you tell even a single lie, you will die in this life and be reborn as an animal in the next?"
Miss Du opened her eyes wide with tears: "What did you say?"
How could she possibly swear on the lives of her entire family?
Lu Yunjue repeated, "If you don't dare, then you're lying. Stop pretending to be pitiful and blaming me for being heartless."
Miss Du looked at him resentfully, "Mr. Lu, please don't go too far! If it were you, would you be willing to swear such a vicious oath on your family?"
Even if it didn't come true, she didn't want to put her family together with such vicious words.
Lu Yunjue said no more. He put away his sword, grabbed her collar and left.
Miss Du was immediately terrified. "Okay, okay, okay, I swear, if I tell even one lie, my whole family will die, and I'll be reborn as an animal in my next life. Is this okay?"
Lu Yunjue hesitated for a moment. She even dared to make such a vicious oath. Could it be that Miss Du was really climbing over their wall for the first time?
In other words, there was someone else walking around in Mother Lu's room?
Miss Du gritted her teeth and said, "Can you let me go now?"
Unexpectedly, Lu Yunjue turned around and said, "Brother and sister-in-law, this woman is very cunning. I will take her inside for interrogation first. Take care of yourselves!"
Miss Du was about to cry, "Didn't you say you'd let me go after I swore an oath? Hey, why don't you untie my vagina first?"
Looking at the backs of the two people leaving, the young couple standing there shook their heads at the same time.
Mu Qing put his arm around Hu Xiner's shoulders and they walked back to the room together.
After hiding in the warm bed, Hu Xin'er couldn't fall asleep. "Husband, do you think Miss Du really lied?"
Mu Qing thought for a moment and said, "Not really."
"I also think her expression looks quite sincere, but it is indeed wrong to climb our wall." Hu Xiner thought.
In fact, isn’t Ms. Du’s current behavior just because she is obsessed with looks, so she just ran to someone else’s house like a stalker fan?
Mu Qing asked again, "Why is she so sure you won't hurt her? Do you have any connection with each other?"
People's subconscious reactions when faced with a crisis cannot be deceived. When Miss Du faced Lu Yunjue's tangible murderous intent, her body would naturally lean towards the person she trusted the most.
And that person is Hu Xiner.
Hu Xiner reluctantly confessed to him everything that happened when Mu Xin's comic shop opened.
When he heard that she was almost injured, Mu Qing blamed himself and said, "It's all my fault for not going with you."
"I left you at home on purpose. I didn't expect you to encounter danger." Hu Xiner stuck out her tongue, her eyes drifting away, feeling a little embarrassed.
Mu Qing sighed, "I know you're prone to impulsiveness when you're emotional, but I still let you go out alone."
Hu Xin'er didn't want to continue this topic, so she said, "If what Miss Du said is true, then it's really amazing that she still likes Yun Jue after seeing his face."
It seems that the two of them are quite a good match.
Mu Qing was also a little surprised, but soon regained his composure: "I believe that from today onwards, she will no longer have any improper thoughts about Yun Jue."
