"Young... Young Master, please understand!"

The jade chain around her neck was suddenly free, and she greedily breathed in the fresh air of freedom. After a near-death experience, she felt like she had been reborn, and she cherished her life even more.

"Lian...Lian Huan was the one he wanted to assassinate, and...he didn't mean to offend the Young Master!"

Yu Lianhuan raised his hand to wipe the blood from the corner of his mouth, stood up tremblingly from the ground, pointed his finger at Si Chengfeng, and explained with difficulty.

Her junior uncle was a highly skilled butcher, possessing unfathomable inner strength. Just now, when the junior uncle had simply pinched her neck, she felt as if her internal organs were being ripped apart, the pain unbearable.

"For money?"

Zuo An glanced at Yu Lianhuan leisurely, speaking nonchalantly. After all, as the leader of a killer organization, accepting a mission to kill was perfectly reasonable.

“No… No!”

Yu Lianhuan narrowed her eyes slightly, then opened them again, a hint of helplessness in her eyes. Although she knew that using money as an excuse would be more appropriate, she had just escaped death from Zuo An's hands and no longer dared to lie to this cold-faced demon.

"What's that for?"

"explain!"

Zuo An's cold gaze was like a biting cold wind, blowing towards Yu Lianhuan again, making her feel hairy all over and with goose bumps all over her body.

"Reply...Report to the Young Master, it's... because of love!" Yu Lianhuan said a little nervously and embarrassedly.

Yu Lianhuan, a master of her generation, was suppressed by a yellow-headed boy at this time, which made her feel ashamed and helpless.

Yu Lianhuan's heart felt as if a volcano was spewing out angry magma, but her face could only reveal a helpless look. At this moment, she was like a tiger trapped in a cage, trying hard to break free, but unable to do so.

"Affection?"

Zuo An's mouth twitched slightly when he heard this.

"Did I hear you right? For love? You, Yu Lianhuan, actually have feelings?"

Zuo An, as if hearing a joke straight out of an Arabian Nights, examined Yu Lianhuan from head to toe, repeatedly. His gaze seemed to be threading a needle through Yu Lianhuan's body, not missing a single detail. His sharp eyes, like an eagle circling in the sky, were sharp and alert, as if he was digging out some treasure from Yu Lianhuan.

This woman who "swims through thickets without a single leaf touching her" could actually have feelings? Isn't it more reasonable to have only the most primitive animal impulses?

This woman's heart was like an iceberg, cold and ruthless. Her smile was like a false ray of sunshine, blinding and blinding, making it impossible to discern her true intentions. Her every move was filled with calculation and strategy.

Such a person can be a killer, but when it comes to him saying he has feelings, Zuo An will never believe it...

Jade Chain: ...

(Why is this junior uncle's look so terrifying? Is he thinking about how to kill me...)

"Uncle Master! Young Sect Leader! Lian Huan is a human being with flesh and blood, and naturally has emotions and desires. He also... there are times when he is easily dazzled by the temptations of flowers. Please... please, for the sake of Lian Huan's years of loyalty to Luosha Sect and Sect Leader Bu, forgive Lian Huan this time! Next time... next time, Lian Huan will never dare to offend Uncle Master again!"

The instinct for survival, like a wildfire, burned fiercely in Yu Lianhuan's heart. She no longer cared about her dignity. After taking a deep breath, she knelt down towards Zuo'an and begged for mercy with tears.

Yu Lianhuan's heart was filled with fear and unease. This junior uncle acted according to his own whims, never following rules. She knew her life and death were now in Zuo An's hands. Even if his eyes were cold and ruthless, she had to find a glimmer of hope for herself.

"Since you're not here on an assassination mission, what's your real purpose? Don't make me ask you again!"

Zuo An's sharp eyes only darted silently at Yu Lianhuan, as if to pierce through him. There was no trace of emotion in his eyes, and his face was expressionless, as if he were watching an ant struggling desperately.

"I say... I say..."

Unable to withstand the huge pressure from Zuo'an, Yu Lianhuan had to honestly explain his motives in the end.

"Si Chengfeng is Nangong Chen's stepson. I... I killed him for Nangong Chen. It's not that I really love Nangong Chen that much, but when I see him surrendering under my skirt, I feel an endless pleasure."

Left Bank: ...

Facing Zuo An's cold gaze, Yu Lianhuan continued to confess honestly, "Not only Nangong Chen, but also Ouyang Yuming. He's the man of the current emperor of Laifeng Kingdom, and he can sleep with me whenever I want. Seeing these men who seem noble but are actually despicable at heart licking my boots, I... I feel really good..."

Left Bank: ...

Si Chengfeng: ...

Yu Lianhuan's biological father is a despised prostitute, and her biological mother is unknown. Her unknown origin destined her life to be a tragedy from the very beginning.

Yu Lianhuan, who lived in a brothel since childhood, suffered humiliation and abuse. After being adopted by a killer organization, Yu Lianhuan, who prided herself on her intelligence and martial arts skills as being as good as others, was extremely hostile to outstanding women, especially those with particularly good family backgrounds.

For example, Si Tianyu, Feng Cailan, and even Emperor Nalan Yunzhi...

Yu Lianhuan felt that if she were in their shoes, her achievements would definitely be above those of others.
