Chapter 510: The Femme Fatale in the Double Life Story (9)
Su Yu was nervous and scared. She looked at Xie Qinglan pleadingly, asking him not to make a sound and not to attract people outside.
Xie Qinglan lowered his eyes and said in a cold voice: "Is there something in this world that you are afraid of?"
Su Yu was horrified, and she softly covered Xie Qinglan's mouth.
"Are you afraid of being discovered? You want me to keep my voice down?"
There were tears in Su Yu's eyes, an abnormal blush on her face, but her lips were pale. She nodded with tears in her eyes.
The effect of the medicine in Su Yu's body became stronger and stronger, but her heartstrings were tightly stretched, as if she was being roasted on the fire, and then a basin of ice water was poured on her. It was a double torture of ice and fire, and she was in endless torment.
"Thank you, Master. Please..."
Su Yu suppressed her voice and begged him, her tears seemed to never stop flowing, her tearful face made people feel pity for her.
In fact, Su Yu was about to vomit blood.
After spending so much time and effort to design and set up the plan, in the end, everything was in vain and you were the one who suffered. Anyone would regret it.
"Beg me? What can you do to beg me?" Xie Qinglan resisted the urge to wipe Su Yu's tears and looked at her with a cold face.
Su Yu looked up at him and cried, her eyes shrinking.
Xie Qinglan pinched Su Yu's chin with a little force: "When you were plotting against me, did you ever think about this moment?"
In fact, Xie Qinglan wanted to ask her whether she regretted giving her the poisoned wine.
"I'm sorry." Su Yu couldn't stop crying, her eyelashes trembling and drooping, her palm unconsciously grasped Xie Qinglan's collar, her fingertips turned white, "But I'm not married yet, I can't be seen by others..."
Xie Qinglan was not moved at all: "It's okay, you and I are engaged."
Su Yu stopped sobbing for a moment and almost burst into cursing.
This man is really heartless. She has practiced in front of the mirror how to cry in the best way to gain sympathy and make people soften their hearts, but this man is not moved at all, like a heartless stone.
Su Yu gritted her teeth, and seeing that pretending to be pitiful didn't work, she threatened: "Master Xie, aren't you afraid that this will affect your reputation?"
Xie Qinglan lowered his dark eyes and said, "This is not my fault."
Su Yu almost vomited blood, and spoke word by word: "Even so, how many people in the world are willing to listen to the truth? If I say that you forced me, how many mouths can Mr. Xie use to explain?"
Xie Qinglan had no expression of sadness or joy, his eyes were like a dark pool: "Now that things have come to this, the Second Miss has lost her reputation, Xie is willing to marry her."
Su Yu cursed him in her heart, calling him dreaming!
But he had to consider Xie Qinglan's words. Once this matter was exposed, Xie Qinglan's reputation would certainly be damaged, but the person who would be most affected would be the woman. I was afraid that in the future, no one except Xie Qinglan would be willing to marry her.
Su Yu's expression changed several times. After weighing the pros and cons, she could only suppress her murderous urge and continue to pretend to be pitiful.
Tears started falling as soon as she spoke. Su Yu grabbed Xie Qinglan's sleeve and staggered to her knees in front of him.
The woman raised her fragile and slender neck slightly, and a line of tears slid down her cheeks: "Master Xie, why do you have to embarrass a weak woman like me?"
Xie Qinglan looked at the woman kneeling in front of him, and recalled the scene in his previous life when he drank the poisoned wine she gave him without any preparation. She was so good at pretending, and it was not unfair for him to be deceived.
Xie Qinglan sneered: "I have never thought of making things difficult for the Second Miss. From the beginning to the end, I was kept in the dark about what happened today and was almost tricked. Is it difficult to seek justice from the person who tricked me now?"
The system updates the male protagonist's information: [Xie Qinglan: He is not easily influenced by soft or hard tactics, and is an expert in anti-PUA and anti-moral kidnapping. ]
Su Yu: […Get lost.]
Even if Su Yu didn't have the heart, she wouldn't say yes at this time.
Fearing that Xie Qinglan would expose this matter in anger, Su Yu tightly grasped his sleeve and cried and begged: "No, I have no such intention. I really have my own difficulties. Please have mercy on me, Master Xie."
…
"Mom, why don't you speak?"
Su Miaoer cursed Su Yu in her heart. If she had known that she was so unreliable, she would have done it herself.
Madam Hou was stunned for a while: "Miao'er?"
She looked at Su Miaoer, then at the closed door in front of her, and frowned deeply: "Have you been in that guest room?"
Su Miaoer knew that today's plan would definitely fail, and after getting angry, she said in a muffled voice: "Yes."
Madam Hou still looked suspicious: "Cui Liu said you were not feeling well, what's going on?"
Su Miaoer looked unnatural: "I just had a sudden headache, but I'm fine now. Mom, has grandma's birthday party started?"
Madam Hou glanced at her and breathed a sigh of relief: "You still remember that today is your grandmother's birthday party. You made me worry to death."
Su Miaoer also breathed a sigh of relief and hugged her mother and said coquettishly: "Oh, mother——"
Madam Hou tapped her forehead heavily and said, "Alright, you are so unruly and making a fool of yourself."
Lady Xin Guogong smiled and said, "Miao'er has a straightforward personality, which makes people very happy."
Hearing this familiar voice, Su Miaoer's body stiffened, and the memories of her past life flooded into her mind again. She lay in her mother's arms and barely hid her bloodshot and red eyes of resentment.
Lady Xin, her mother-in-law, she will never forget this voice in her life.
In her previous life, she was two-faced. On the surface, she was kind, generous and considerate to her, but secretly she indulged her son in favoring his concubine over his wife. Even when her husband's concubine forced her to have a miscarriage, she did not stand up for herself just because the concubine was pregnant.
Fortunately, God had mercy on her and she returned to the time when she was not married.
The Marquis's wife didn't notice anything unusual and smiled and replied, "She just has a childish temper."
After saying that, Madam Hou once again set her eyes on the room in front of her: "Miao'er, mother asks you, did you hear any noise next door just now?"
Su Miaoer calmed down and got up from her mother's arms.
"What's going on?"
She was just so anxious that she didn't pay attention to anything else: "I just heard a sound like something was smashing on the ground. If you want to know, you can go in and take a look."
In the room, Su Yu heard this and in panic she buried her face in Xie Qinglan's arms, her thin arms tightly around his waist.
A crying and panicked voice came out from the man's arms: "No, we can't let them see it."
Xie Qinglan was hugged unexpectedly and did not dodge.
Su Yu panicked and quickly thought of a solution. She hid in Xie Qinglan's arms and cried, begging him: "Master Xie, please help me, please..."
Xie Qinglan didn't respond.
Su Yu was afraid that someone outside would really come in. She was angry at Xie Qinglan for being so hard-hearted. She got up without any hesitation, ran to the door and locked it.
The effects of the medicine have not been resolved, and as time goes by, it gets worse.
Su Yu's hands and feet felt weak. She breathed a sigh of relief after locking the door, slid down against the door, hugged her legs and squatted on the ground.
Someone is approaching the door.
There was a knock on the door. It was Yinghong, the maidservant beside the Marquis. "Is anyone here? The birthday banquet is about to begin. Please move aside."
Su Yu's cheeks were flushed, her eyes were full of spring, and her watery eyes were tinged with panic. She looked up at the person beside the bed helplessly.
There was no response. Yinghong was puzzled and pushed the door gently, but it didn't open.
She turned to look at Madam Hou: "Madam, the door is locked from the inside."
Madam Hou frowned and said, "Knock again."
