She was filled with fear.

She didn't dare to listen, look, or think.

"Why don't you say it? Do you think that harming me isn't cruel enough, so it's pointless to talk about it?"

Zhao Lin said coldly, "I'm curious. I clearly haven't offended you. Why are you targeting me and wanting to kill me?"

Zhao Mingyu opened his mouth, speechless.

Zhao Lin said, "No answer? Let me guess, is it because Zhao Jingzhou once casually said he would give me a manor, and that was what you considered your dowry? So you want to kill me, or at least make Zhao Jingzhou think that I am not worthy of that manor."

Zhao Mingyu was terrified.

She thought that no one knew something, but Zhao Lin said it to her face.

Seeing Zhao Mingyu's expression, Zhao Lin sneered and said, "Don't worry, there will be plenty of time to continue to harm me in the future. However, whether you can kill me depends on your ability."

"I'm sorry, I-I didn't mean to hurt you."

Zhao Mingyu hurriedly explained: "Those are all misunderstandings, I can explain them."

"It's boring," Zhao Lin said calmly. "I remember all of this very clearly. I'll retaliate against you one by one. Don't claim you were wronged then."

Although Zhao Lin's tone was calm, it was like a bolt from the blue to Zhao Mingyu's ears!

They were still discussing whether Zhao Lin should return home, but Zhao Lin was thinking about how to take revenge on them!

What forced someone who once tried so hard to integrate into the Marquis' Mansion to become like this?

"Now, tell me why you're here."

"I……"

Zhao Mingyu suddenly found it difficult to speak.

What can I say?

Beating Zhao Lin like this, almost forcing him to death, and letting him return home in exchange for him not taking the imperial examination, is that okay?

I guess Zhao Lin would kill himself after hearing this condition?

I can’t help it if it were me!

At this moment, Zhao Mingyu was terrified.
