He pulled it in front of him and spoke coldly.

"You want me to let you go? Forget it. Even if you die, you can't get rid of me."

"A fickle woman like you would be a disaster if we let her out."

Chen Ningzhu clenched her palms tightly, her nails digging deep into her flesh. In her heart, she kept cursing the bastard, "Damn it!"

I was so unlucky to have met such a mean and despicable man. Just with that stinky mouth, I really wanted to tear him to pieces. Fortunately, I now had a better idea of ​​what was going on. I knew he wouldn't kill her so easily, so I stopped paying attention to him.

He kicked the man to the ground, then turned over and got off the bed, ready to go to sleep.

The man turned over in anger, grabbed her slender wrist, gnashed his teeth,

"Shen Ningzhu..."

Chen Ningzhu sneered. What's the point of screaming? As long as she didn't die, she wasn't afraid.

He frowned and tried to shake it off, but found that the other party was holding it very tightly, and his bones were almost crushed by him. The muscles on the man's arms were very tense, and his body was trembling slightly.

Shen Ningzhu looked at him.

In the candlelight, his angular profile flickered, and complex and intense emotions surged in his eyes.

Anger, unwillingness, and the humble prayers and grievances hidden in the deepest part.

Shen Ningzhu pursed her lips, turned around, stepped on his boots with her bare feet, and gently hugged his waist. Seeing that he was obviously stiff, she took a step back to distance herself and said in a thin voice,

"I was really kidnapped by King Chen. I finally escaped, but when I went to look for you, you were gone. I thought..."

"Thought I was dead?"

"Oh, yes, so...ah—"

The man pushed her away fiercely, and she was caught off guard and fell to the ground.

The palms of his hands seemed to be rubbed and burning with pain. His knees were scraped and the bright red blood flowed down along the kneecap, sliding across the glowing white skin of his calves and staining the furry carpet red.

Red and white form a sharp contrast.

Like white snow and red plum blossoms.

At this moment, the candlelight in front of him flashed, and a tall figure appeared in front of him.

The other person was breathing rapidly, obviously not expecting such a thing to happen. He hurriedly knelt on one knee in front of her, his sword-like brows wrinkled into the shape of the Chinese character "川".

He pinched her round calf with his big hand.

"Let me see quickly, is the injury serious?"

Shen Ningzhu didn't want to see him in the first place, and now her patience was exhausted. She stretched out her foot to kick him, but he held her down forcefully.

"Don't move, I'll give you some medicine."

After saying that, he picked up the person without saying anything, walked to the bed, lifted the curtain, and gently placed the person on the couch.

He quickly took out the medicine box and carefully treated her wound, sprinkled medicine powder on it, and then bandaged it with gauze.

Chen Ningzhu looked at him as if he was familiar with the place, her fingers curled up slightly, and she felt terrified.

He even knew exactly where the medicine box in her room was. But Song Hanchuan had clearly said that the court was mostly under his control.

Then why does Jiang Xuanyan still have such strength?

There are also guards in the mansion, all of whom were carefully selected by Song Hanchuan, and each of them can fight against a hundred people.

There were dozens of people in the mansion, and they were guarded openly and secretly. So why did Jiang Xuanyan walk in so easily? Not to mention being stopped by people outside, he didn't even make a sound.

Shen Ningzhu felt a chill on her back and her hands and feet were cold.

Fear and apprehension spread rapidly in my heart.

Shen Ningzhu stared at him deeply, not understanding what kind of powerful monster he was. He made people hate and fear him, want to kill him, but not have the ability to kill him.

After bandaging her wound, the man blew carefully on it, his eyes gentle.

Shen Ningzhu did not appreciate it.

He is always like this, hurting her but giving her a good face as if it were alms, and thinking that she should be grateful, but why?

Chen Ningzhu coldly withdrew her legs.

His eyebrows were distant, his eyes were dull, and his tone was indifferent, as if keeping people at a distance.

"Your Majesty, if you have nothing else to do, please leave. I am sleepy and want to sleep."

Jiang Xuanyan pursed his lips tightly.

He had already taken the initiative to bow his head, and she still didn't understand? She was clearly in the wrong first, yet she was still acting so high and mighty, trying to chase him away?

It's not her turn to make the decision between him and her.

Jiang Xuanyan half-knelt beside the couch, still in the posture of applying medicine to her, and sneered,

"What if I don't?"

Jiang Xuanyan was born a favored child of heaven and had always been praised by others. How could he have been looked down upon like this, let alone by a woman?

Once, twice.

This woman trampled on his self-esteem and crushed it mercilessly.

Jiang Xuanyan pursed his lips into a straight line, and the coldness in his eyes almost froze Shen Ningzhu into an ice sculpture.

"I have the final say on when to leave and when to stay. It's not your turn to chase me away. Chen Ningzhu, you have plotted against me and deceived me time and time again. Aren't you afraid that I will kill you?"

"What do you want?"

"If you dare to plot against me, you will have to pay the price."

Jiang Xuanyan looked at Shen Ningzhu's stunned eyes, and his gaze couldn't help but move down to her neckline. Her white jade skin was hidden under the veil, revealing her exquisite collarbone.

It was clearly just a small section of jade neck, but it was inexplicably alluring, making Jiang Xuanyan feel hot in his heart.

Jiang Xuanyan quickly looked away and met Shen Ningzhu's dazed eyes.

Those eyes were pure and lustful, innocent and seductive, and Jiang Xuanyan almost got fooled by her again.

Thinking about how she said she loved him to death, but then she ran away when he was out.

While standing in front of Jiang Yanche to fight him, leaning in his arms with a shy attitude of wanting to refuse but also to accept, she created an illusion and tried to use his hand to kill Jiang Yanche.

Thinking of this, Jiang Xuanyan felt a surge of anger in his heart.

He couldn't understand how a woman could be so heartless. Thinking of Jiang Yanche's stupid look when he rushed to kill people in Luoshui Town, it was obvious that he had been deceived by this woman.

Jiang Xuanyan's eyes became sharper.

The cold voice was like a sharp sword. His fingertips rubbed her knees and pressed on her wound with a little force.

The wound that had just been bandaged began to bleed again, staining the snow-white gauze red.

Shen Ningzhu hissed in pain.

The man sneered, his scarlet eyes looking evil and wild, as if he was seriously ill. "So you feel pain too? I thought you didn't feel pain, and you had no heart."

This reminded Shen Ningzhu of the scene in the dungeon, so she quickly lied and said she had her period and was feeling unwell.

"Really? Let me touch it." Chen Ningzhu vs. Jiang Xuanyan picture Chen Ningzhu's face was full of horror.

Then, he really stretched out his hand to ××, with a sarcastic smile on his face and a tone full of disappointment.

"As expected... heh..."

Suddenly, he exerted force with his fingertips, winding his fingers inwards, "Chen Ningzhu, I remember telling you that you will pay the price for deceiving me. Why can't you ever remember? Hmm?"

"you--"

Shen Ningzhu was shocked and angry, her little face flushed red in an instant, her whole body trembled with anger, and she angrily scolded the other party for being shameless.
