Chapter 539: The Femme Fatale in the Double Life Story (38)

No, that's not right. She took her makeup box to the Yongchang Marquis' Mansion. It couldn't be with Xie Qinglan. These banknotes were not in the makeup box.

After thinking it through, Su Yu stopped talking in time.

Unfortunately, it was too late. Xie Qinglan walked slowly towards her, stepping on the silver bills on the ground. Su Yu could not help but step back until her back was against the wall, with no room for retreat.

With her chin pinched and raised, Su Yu ran into a pair of dark and cold eyes in panic, as if she was frozen in place.

Her voice trembled: "S-Sorry..."

Su Yu finally felt scared. Xie Qinglan knew everything and could not hide anything from him.

"Su Yu, have I ever told you that if you encounter problems that you can't solve, you should tell me and I'll take care of everything?" Xie Qinglan unconsciously increased his strength.

Su Yu was so scared that tears welled up in her eyes and she nodded while crying.

"So how did you do it?"

Xie Qinglan lowered his head and glanced at the banknotes at his feet. A flash of sarcasm flashed in his eyes, and his face was gloomy: "Because of the interests, you can poison the person next to you with your own hands. Su Yu, is your blood cold or your heart black? Why can you be so cruel?"

It was not the first day that Xie Qinglan knew Su Yu, nor was it the first time that he knew that Su Yu was cruel.

She poisoned him in her previous life, and Xie Qinglan forgave her.

She pushed her eldest sister into the water and poisoned her. Xie Qinglan understood that she had been bullied since childhood and wanted to fight back and retaliate, which was understandable.

She had her aunt's legs broken, and Xie Qinglan also defended her by saying that it was her aunt who started the trouble first, and that she deserved whatever happened to her.

She schemed to destroy Lin Xiuxiu's face and made her kneel in the snow for two hours. Although Xie Qinglan felt that this was a bit excessive, it was Lin Xiuxiu who was wrong first after all. Su Yu was proud and arrogant, so it was inevitable that she could not stand the provocation.

Xie Qinglan doesn't need to care about these things.

But this time he couldn't help but care. Obviously everything was going well. Obviously he had worked harder to climb higher in this life. Obviously he was very kind to Su Yu...

He thought that at least... he wouldn't end up like in his previous life.

Su Yu couldn't utter a word.

"Why don't you speak?" Xie Qinglan lifted her face, half bright and half dark, and said in a cold voice, "Because what I said is right, you have nothing to say, right?"

Su Yu struggled slightly, her chin aching from tilting it back. This movement seemed to irritate Xie Qinglan. He pinched Su Yu's cheek and pushed her against the wall: "Did you ever regret or hesitate for a moment that night?"

Su Yu wanted to nod, and even if she didn't, she had to say yes, but Xie Qinglan was too strong and she couldn't move at all. Her face was pinched and she could only make some meaningless whimpering sounds.

Xie Qinglan didn't even intend to give her a chance to speak.

He laughed self-deprecatingly and sarcastically: "Why am I asking you this? Have you ever said a word of truth?"

Su Yu was so upset that she wanted to cry but had no tears. At least she could be allowed to make an excuse.

After finally breaking free, Su Yu said without even catching her breath: "I did, I did, husband, believe me, I didn't want to, I was just too scared..."

Su Yu opened her eyes blankly, and Xie Qinglan's face enlarged in front of her.

The sudden kiss interrupted Su Yu's speech. Her teeth were pried open, and he attacked her fiercely, blocking her words. It seemed that he didn't want to listen to her insincere and hypocritical explanation, so he chose to leave her speechless.

Su Yu felt her breathing became a little short of breath, and her neck felt even more sore from tilting her head back. She wanted to hide, but her head was pressed forward.

Su Yu didn't know where to put her hands. Finally, she grabbed Xie Qinglan's clothes tremblingly and put them on the leather belt around his waist. The wrinkled handkerchief in her hand fell to the ground, as if it had been severely ravaged.

The kiss gradually changed. Su Yu's body became weak and her breathing became rapid, all filled with Xie Qinglan's scent.

The hand across her waist was extremely forceful, as if it wanted to strangle her in half.

Su Yu's face was red and she was panting. She pushed him away weakly with one hand and grabbed Xie Qinglan's belt helplessly with the other hand, tightening it slightly and pulling it.

A short syllable came out of Su Yu's throat: "Hmm~"

The person in front of him suddenly stopped moving.

The next second, Su Yu cried out in pain, and the strong breath suddenly retreated. Tears welled up in her eyes, perhaps from lack of oxygen or pain, and she subconsciously touched the corner of her mouth.

It hurts so much. Xie Qinglan just bit her suddenly.

In the past two years, Su Yu has been spoiled even more than before she got married. She would cry out in pain even when she got a needle-sized wound on her hand. Now, she was bitten mercilessly and she immediately burst into tears in pain.

She forgot her situation and stared at Xie Qinglan with tearful eyes: "Why did you bite me?"

Xie Qinglan's expression was no longer as cold as before. His lips were red, but his eyes were still heavy. He stared at Su Yu for a while, until Su Yu's momentum completely disappeared.

Su Yu lowered her eyes in grievance and fear. Xie Qinglan was biting her now, and she didn't dare to say a word, because her life was in his hands.

Su Yu just wanted to save her life now. After hesitating for two seconds, she nervously grabbed Xie Qinglan's sleeve, shook it very lightly, and begged, "Husband, please don't kill me."

Xie Qinglan's eyes swept across Su Yu's swollen lips. There was a small cut on it. The blood beads were unconsciously swept away by the tip of his tongue as soon as they appeared. The woman was still begging, and seemed to be extremely scared and regretful.

Xie Qinglan's eyes changed murkyly for a few times, and suddenly he stood up, shook off Su Yu's hand, turned around and left the room without saying anything.

Su Yu looked at his back with a confused look on her face as he disappeared out the door.

Did she... escape?

In the next few days, Xie Qinglan didn't come either, as if he had completely forgotten about her.

However, the system told her that Xie Qinglan was busy dealing with the eldest prince and a large number of traitors behind him, and had no time to think about other things.

Su Yu drank half a bowl of sweet soup after dinner: [Is that so. ]

The system squatted on the table and quickly finished off Su Yu's leftovers: [I feel like the hero won't kill you. ]

Su Yu also felt this way.

The system's next sentence: [He may want to keep you and torture you slowly. ]

Su Yu: [……]

After dinner, the maid Sui Jin brought people in to clean up the dishes. Looking at the empty plates as usual, Sui Jin glanced at Su Yu's flat belly covertly. She didn't look like she was a big eater.

Su Yu pretended not to notice her staring at her, and said coldly: "Where's Lan Ying? Get out! Let Lan Ying serve me."

I don’t know where Xie Qinglan took Lan Ying. These days, she has been served by a maid named Sui Jin. Su Yu cannot go out and has no idea what is going on outside.

Sui Jin's reason never changed: "Miss Lan Ying is ill, and I will be taking care of Madam these days."

"Then let me go see her!"

Sui Jin said gently: "His Highness has ordered that Madam cannot step out of the room before he gives the order."
