I was trembling with fear and tried to get as far away from Liu Lieyu as possible, but I couldn't move at all.
Liu Lieyu looked down at me, and I could see my pale face reflected in his pupils. "So scared?" Liu Lieyu chuckled softly. "You used to like it a lot."
I pursed my lips, unsure of what to say. Indeed, if I hadn't suddenly taken over Nv Xin's body, Liu Lieyu and the female lead would both have their own child by now, living a peaceful and carefree life.
For Liu Lieyu, the world he woke up to was too bizarre. Not long ago, "I" and he made vows of eternal love, but in the blink of an eye, I not only married You, but also fell in love with You sincerely.
I lowered my eyes. "I know you might not be able to accept this, but I really don't like you at all anymore. Can you please let me go? You'll meet other good girls in the future."
"Let you go?" Liu Lieyu seemed to have heard the biggest joke in the world. "Impossible, unless you're already dead."
I almost blurted out, "Your daughter is indeed dead," but thankfully I managed to keep my mouth shut at the crucial moment.
I swallowed hard to calm myself down. Oh my god, I must never think about such things again. If I accidentally let it slip out one day, death will be the only thing waiting for me.
Thinking about it like this makes me a little sad. Nobody loves me, not even You. If I appeared as myself, I would probably be cannon fodder and no one would notice me.
Actually, it doesn't matter whether others love me or not, but, but You, I really want to tell You that I love him in my own name, not in the name of Nv Xin.
I suddenly became sentimental, and thinking about what You and I were going through, as well as the pressure Liu Lieyu was putting on me, I couldn't help but cry again, which was pathetic.
"Why are you crying?" Liu Lieyu noticed something was wrong and wiped away the tears from the corners of my eyes. "Are you so scared? Are you really that unwilling?"
I ignored him.
Liu Lieyu sighed, "I was just kidding. Actually, whether you like it or not, Qing Si Rao doesn't allow anyone other than the one who cast the spell to enter. Do you think Youyuan is that generous?"
"Really?"
Liu Lieyu nodded, but then said, "Don't be too happy yet. I'll find a way to untie him tomorrow. Hmph, he's already dead. Do you think leaving this behind will make him useful?"
"Who are you saying is dead?! Youcai is not dead!" I roared, my voice trembling with sobs.
Liu Lieyu paused, perhaps afraid of provoking me, and surprisingly didn't argue with me, but simply closed his eyes and stopped talking.
Since Liu Lieyu didn't say anything, I naturally wouldn't provoke him.
The next morning, Liu Lieyu ordered people to do my hair and makeup, and I was like a doll, completely at their mercy.
After all this was done, Liu Lieyu forcibly dragged me out of my room.
That's when I realized that outside the original room was a huge palace. Except for my room, which had a modern style, the rest of the place was not.
Liu Lieyu pulled me deeper into this magnificent and ancient palace. Where was he taking me?
We turned and twisted our way into a vertical avenue. The walls along the avenue were covered with ancient murals, all depicting a man with a snake's tail and a human body. Some murals showed him fighting, some showing him performing sacrifices, and some showing him enjoying himself in a palace. These were all depictions of Liu Lieyu's achievements or daily life when he was the Eastern Emperor.
I don't know how long I walked, but Liu Lieyu finally stopped, and we arrived at the end of this avenue.
