Then, considering that he was captured so easily without warning or resistance, and the timing was so coincidental.
The sudden and unexpected military action by the Kingdom of Jizi, which shook the court and the country, must have been orchestrated and manipulated by Yu Ying behind the scenes.
This thought, like a cold, piercing lightning bolt, instantly pierced the darkness in her mind.
Su Jinyun felt a bone-chilling cold suddenly rise from the soles of her feet, like a cold and merciless electric current, rushing swiftly up her spine and straight to the top of her head.
It made her blood seem to freeze at that moment.
She realized with both clarity and despair that the person before her was ruthless and decisive, with a mind as deep as the sea, like a deadly viper lurking in the darkness.
A moment's carelessness could lead to someone's death. Today, I'm probably in a hopeless situation with little chance of survival.
When Yu Ying uttered "Long time no see," a seemingly ordinary and calm utterance that seemed to conceal a thousand profound meanings and mysteries, it was as if...
Su Jinyun felt as if she had been struck by lightning. Her brain seemed to freeze briefly, and her thoughts went blank for a moment. She was unable to react immediately.
But she was no ordinary, delicate woman. Years of trials and tribulations had honed her composure, allowing her to remain calm even when faced with a collapsing mountain or a frightened deer.
On the surface, she remained calm and composed, as still as a deep lake without a ripple, but inside, her heart was like a turbulent sea.
Various thoughts rose and fell like surging waves.
She was frantically trying to figure out how to find a glimmer of hope in this precarious and critical situation.
They cleverly and resourcefully dealt with this seemingly unsolvable predicament.
Yu Ying gazed silently at the person before her, who was tightly bound by ropes, like a trapped beast yet still retaining dignity.
Despite being in such a difficult and almost hopeless predicament, he simply stared straight at himself with angry eyes.
Seeing the calm, composed, and unhurried demeanor in Su Jinyun's eyes, without the slightest hint of panic or timidity, she couldn't help but feel a ripple of emotion in her heart and sighed inwardly.
At this critical moment of life and death, Su Jinyun's composure and calmness are beyond the reach of ordinary people and are truly amazing.
As expected of the person Qin Qianluo loves and is devoted to, he remains calm and composed even in the face of such a desperate situation.
This composure and courage, this fearless spirit in the face of danger, is truly admirable.
Seeing that Su Jinyun's lips were tightly pursed, her expression was cold and resolute, and she exuded an aura that kept people at a distance, it was clear that she had no intention of speaking first.
Yu Ying remained calm, like a bottomless pool, showing no surprise or displeasure whatsoever.
Her figure was graceful, like a fairy gliding silently in the dark night, moving with light, delicate steps.
Each step seemed to tread on the strings of time, producing a silent rhythm, slowly bringing him to Su Jinyun's side.
She lowered her head slightly, looking down at Su Jinyun, who was now disheveled and tightly bound by ropes.
In countless sleepless nights, Yu Ying had imagined this scene countless times in her mind.
He fully expected that when he witnessed Su Jinyun in such a miserable state, he would feel a strong and intense sense of revenge.
It was a release of long-suppressed emotions, a secret smugness at the enemy's downfall, and the exhilarating feeling of finding an outlet for deep-seated jealousy and resentment.
However, when she actually stood in front of Su Jinyun, her gaze fell upon Su Jinyun's face, which, despite being in dire straits, remained as stubborn and resolute as a rock.
And those eyes, which, even shrouded in darkness, still shone with an indomitable light, like stars in a cold night.
The pleasure I had anticipated vanished without a trace, like a dream bubble.
Instead, a feeling of appreciation arose spontaneously, like a babbling brook, which even she herself had not anticipated.
This appreciation does not stem from a shared identity or compatible ideologies, but rather from a heartfelt admiration for Su Jinyun's unwavering resilience and composure in such dire circumstances.
In this cramped and oppressive space, Su Jinyun's qualities shone even brighter, gently touching the string of appreciation deep within Yu Ying's heart.
Yu Ying slowly squatted down, her movements as gentle as if she were afraid of disturbing a sleeping baby, as if she were performing an extremely sacred ritual.
She tilted her head slightly and gently brought it close to Su Jinyun's ear.
Her hair, like black silk, swayed gently with her movements, a few strands almost touching Su Jinyun's cheeks.
Her voice was as light and soft as a petal falling quietly in a spring breeze, gentle and ethereal, as if it would be swept away by the wind if one were not careful.
Yet it carried a subtle, almost imperceptible expectation, as if conveying a secret and crucial message concerning life and death.
She said slowly, "Take care of yourself. Qin Qianluo should be here soon. You are in Jizi Kingdom now. Don't trust anyone. Wait for Qin Qianluo to come and save you."
Su Jinyun's delicate body trembled violently, as if she had been hit by a sudden and fierce blow.
Yu Ying's abrupt words were like a chilling, piercing glint of light.
It suddenly pierced straight into her already highly tense and fragile nerves, which were as fragile as a string that could break at the slightest touch.
Her mind was instantly thrown into chaos, filled with deep suspicion, as if she had fallen into a vast fog.
They racked their brains and pondered deeply, but they still couldn't figure out what Yu Ying was up to.
