"Say what you just said again."
Shangguan Shu glanced at Zhao Yao indifferently, and his eyes fell on Huyan Xue again.
The man's voice was not loud, but extremely cold.
The biting cold air filled the main hall, piercing like a sharp blade. Even though Hu Yanxue had always been extremely brave, he couldn't help but swallow his saliva with a chill.
Shangguan Shu's reputation was earned on the battlefield, and his power of life and death was not something a rude and brainless woman like Huyan Xue could withstand.
Not only Hu Yanxue, but even Zhao Yao became timid instantly, and his eyes didn't know where to look.
Shangguan Shu sneered when he saw this.
"If anyone dares to call me Yue'er dumb again, I will make him dumb!"
Upon hearing this, Hu Yanxue staggered and fell into a chair. With red eyes, she glanced at Zhao Ying and Shangguan Qingyue, then looked at Shangguan Shu with tears in her eyes and resentment, "Uncle, you don't love Xue'er anymore..."
Zhao Yao shook her head and laughed self-deprecatingly, "Xue'er...we came to the wrong place..."
She had the leverage over Zhao Ying in her hand and didn't care if Zhao Ying knew about it.
Anyway... Xue'er had already let the cat out of the bag just now, and Zhao Ying didn't react at all. It seems like she probably knew it too.
Knowing that she and Shangguan Shu have been secretly connected...
Zhao Yao suddenly felt relieved. Zhao Ying must have been heartbroken when she first learned the truth. It was such a pity that she didn't see it.
But at this moment, if she is not having a good time, then they can't have an easy time either!
Zhao Yao stared at Shangguan Shu and tears fell from her eyes.
"Shangguan Shu, you and I have been childhood sweethearts, yet in the end, you have ended up like this!"
Shangguan Shu's brows were deeply furrowed.
Zhao Yao stood up, stepped closer, and suddenly tore open the collar on the shoulder blade, revealing the densely packed marks inside, which were even more shocking than those on the face.
Zhao Ying opened her mouth, not knowing whether she was frightened by Dian Hen or shocked by Zhao Yao's sudden wild behavior.
Seeing this, the little guy in her arms snuggled even closer to her mother's arms.
[Playing hooligan in broad daylight! ]
Zhao Yao burst into tears, "Do you still remember what you said to me?"
She pointed at Zhao Ying and said in a tearful voice, "You said you've never been attracted to her!"
"I've been the only one you've admired all these years!"
"But how did you treat me?"
"Zhao Ying cut off my ears, and you turned a blind eye! Your daughter stabbed me like a hedgehog, and you also turned a blind eye! I have nothing left!"
"You said you would protect the four of us, mother and children! But what did you do?"
As Zhao Yao spoke, she was truly moved. Her face flushed red, and her eyes were filled with accusations and grievances towards Shangguan Shu.
Seeing this, Hu Yanxue also burst into tears. "Uncle, my mother was sent away to marry because of you. When she came back, she became a nun and never married. She had no one to rely on. Now she is in such a miserable situation. How can you be so cruel as to abandon her?"
Zhao Yao covered her chest and cried inconsolably.
Zhao Ying looked at Shangguan Shu, then at Zhao Yao, and her dark eyes flashed.
The little one in my arms stopped crying and focused on watching the fun...
Is Aunt Huai'an asking my father for a legitimate status?
【Daddy, give it to her!!】
Zhao Yao originally thought that this would arouse Shangguan Shu's sympathy. It didn't require too much. As long as Shangguan Shu punished the little mute, Zhao Ying would immediately turn against Shangguan Shu.
Unexpectedly, Shangguan Shu lowered his eyes and remained silent, not knowing what he was thinking.
Zhao Yao's heart felt colder and colder. She looked at Zhao Ying and her daughter who were watching the fun beside her, and suddenly felt that this world was too unfair and treated her badly in every way.
His determination to destroy Zhao Ying grew stronger.
If it weren't for Zhao Ying, Shangguan Shu wouldn't treat her like this!
Zhao Yao became ruthless and pulled out a dagger from her body.
Zhao Ying widened her eyes upon seeing this and subconsciously protected Shangguan Qingyue.
Unexpectedly, Zhao Yao's dagger was not used to stab them, but... stabbed herself fiercely.
"Since you have no feelings for me anymore, why should I stay in this world?!"
There was only the sound of a sharp blade piercing flesh...
Hu Yanxue exclaimed: "Mother!!"
Shangguan Shu raised his head upon hearing the voice, his pupils shrinking, "Huai'an!"
Zhao Yao fell into Shangguan Shu's arms. Shangguan Shu called Yu Jie, "Go call the imperial physician!"
Zhao Yao reached for Shangguan Shu's face with her blood-stained hands and cried, "Runlang..."
"If I die, will you forget me..."
Shangguan Shu took a deep breath and subconsciously wanted to avoid Zhao Yao's hand, but because of Zhao Yao's injuries, he held back.
"Don't talk nonsense, you can't die!"
Zhao Yao smiled with relief and sadness, "I knew you couldn't bear to leave me, you love me..."
Shangguan Shu closed his eyes and said in a deep voice, "Huai'an, why do you have to do this? I must be... protecting you."
He couldn't even utter the word "love".
Zhao Yao sobbed, "Runlang..."
Huyan Xue's eyes were red, and she was obviously frightened by the scene just now. When she heard Shangguan Shu promised to protect them, she couldn't wait to attack Zhao Ying.
She pointed at Zhao Ying and gnashed her teeth, "It's all your fault! Haven't you harmed me enough? Why did you also force my mother to death?"
"You vicious woman!"
As soon as she finished speaking, before anyone could react, Huyan Xue suddenly widened her eyes, her eyeballs seemed to be squeezed out, bloodshot covered the whites of her eyes, and then she opened her mouth and stuck out her tongue uncontrollably.
Hu Yanxue's eyes were filled with horror. She wanted to seek help from Zhao Yao and Shangguan Shu, but her words were incoherent and saliva flowed from the corners of her mouth...
The next second, it felt like something was tearing her tongue. In an instant, her long tongue was pulled off by the roots and fell to the ground with a plop.
