She kept expressing her determination to die, but Lu Ziyan could do nothing but glare at her fiercely.
She was right, as long as she was ruthless and had no weaknesses, she would not be threatened.
Even if he had extraordinary powers, he couldn't do anything to someone who was determined to die.
Of course, if he really wanted to remove someone's jaw, pick at their meridians, and imprison them in a palace, that would be another matter.
But Lu Ziyan couldn't bear to do it. He couldn't bear to touch her even a finger.
He didn't even dare to bet whether she could be as cruel as he said.
Once he let her out of his sight, he would be worried that she would really commit suicide.
He would be terribly scared and in a constant state of anxiety.
How did it come to this?
How did it come to this!
Lu Ziyan's eyes were red, like a gambler who had lost all his chips, his face full of despair and despair.
"Why?"
"Why did you do this to me?"
His eyelashes trembled slightly and tears fell.
A teardrop fell right on Xie Wan Ning's lips. Before she could wipe it away, many more fell.
Ice cold and salty to the point of being bitter.
"You loved me so much before," Lu Ziyan was extremely puzzled, his voice choked with sobs: "How can you be so cruel to me now?"
Xie Wan Ning also recalled the stupid things she had done in the past.
She is completely different from him. He can hide his feelings so deeply and restrain himself to the extreme.
But when she likes someone, she is very open and not stingy about it.
She liked it so much that she wanted to express it twenty points.
But no matter what, those likes were real, she really liked him.
The two of them have come to this point because of misunderstandings and hurts, but more importantly, they have incompatible personalities.
Xie Wan Ning raised her hand and pried open his fingers one by one. When the grip on his neck was no longer tight, she reached out and pushed his shoulder again.
Lu Ziyan froze for a moment, then slowly stood up.
After being pressed on the table by him for so long, Xie Wan Ning's waist was sore and she slowly stood up.
The two stood facing each other.
After a few breaths of silence, she said, "You are a famous general who was invincible at a young age. You have been on the rise in your career without any setbacks. In your previous life, you even won the supreme position in the world. It has been a long time since anyone dared to refute you."
"You are always firm in what you say, and you don't allow others to refuse you. No matter what you want, no matter what your goal is, you will achieve it even if it means using any means."
Having said this, she paused.
"Perhaps it is true as you said. I am your obsession. You are bound by your inner demons and cannot accept that I marry someone else, so you abducted me here regardless of my wishes. You cannot accept that I no longer like you, so you use the lives of my parents and my people to force me to compromise."
"Indeed," she lowered her eyes and said, "You are in a high position, have great martial arts skills, and have many talented people under you. No matter how arrogant and domineering you are, no matter how reckless you act, the emperor will not really punish you for various reasons. You can indeed abduct me regardless of my wishes, even if you commit more outrageous things. It's up to you."
"You are very powerful, and I cannot stop you. But if you ask me why I would rather die than compromise, I can answer you."
She pursed her lips, and the remaining moisture was touched by the tip of her tongue, and the salty and bitter taste attacked her taste buds again.
This is the taste of his tears.
Feeling a little dry in her throat, Xie Wan Ning pursed her lips and gently raised her eyes: "Because I am alone."
Her voice was hoarse and difficult to speak. Lu Ziyan listened in a trance, looking dazed and staring at her blankly.
Xie Wan Ning said: "I was also born in a prominent family. I have been well-read since I was young. I can think, I can get angry, I know honor and disgrace, and I have my own independent personality. I am not a wooden stake that you can manipulate."
If she became panic-stricken and compromised and obeyed him after receiving a few threats, she would be unworthy of the upbringing she received from the Xie family since childhood.
There are many people in this world who are afraid of death, but there is never a shortage of truly tough people.
If she had to succumb to his coercion and remarry into the Lu family, even if she could eventually become the queen, she would rather die.
"Have you made up your mind?" Xie Wan Ning smiled and said, "Do you want a corpse, or are you willing to show mercy and let me live?"
The room fell silent again, and no one spoke.
After a long time, Lu Ziyan's eyelashes trembled and he blinked gently, as if he finally understood the meaning of her words. He opened his lips and wanted to say something.
But he never uttered a word.
This is truly a threat of death.
But even his anger disappeared inexplicably.
He is indeed crazy.
He was so crazy that he almost forgot how stubborn his Wanwan was, which was why she kept threatening her.
Corpse.
The tragic past was still vivid in his mind. He didn't even dare to think about it, so how could he dare to face this word?
The eyes of the man opposite him unconsciously became obscure and indescribable. Xie Wanning clenched her hands under her sleeves, not knowing whether her desperate determination would work.
Can you shake him even a little bit?
She knew that if he was an enemy, she was betting on how much he cared about her life or death.
It sounds ridiculous, but she had to take the gamble. She wanted to live a peaceful life and didn't want to worry about being kidnapped by him every time she went out.
She couldn't even bring herself to stab him with the knife in her hand, so could he really bear to force her into a desperate situation?
Of course Lu Ziyan couldn't bear it, and his eyes fell on her quietly.
Seeing her nervousness and uneasiness, he said in the strange silence, "Answer me a question."
Without waiting for her to express her opinion, he asked directly.
