Si Jin's voice was rather loud, and for some reason, it made Sheng Linyuan tremble, and his eyes reddened.
For the past two weeks, all the emotions that had been weighing on his heart finally erupted, forcing him to open his mouth and gasp for breath.
"I...I've been poisoned."
Sheng Linyuan gripped the edge of the table with one hand, and upon closer inspection, it was trembling violently: "I won't live much longer. That poison will gradually make people suspicious, uneasy, and violent. I... don't want to become a madman."
He recounted, word by word, how he discovered the poison, describing his journey from despair to utter helplessness.
"I originally thought that my mother was just biased towards Sheng Linfeng, but I never expected that he was scheming against me when he was pregnant with me."
"I can't find the antidote. The world's number one doctor says there is no antidote. Maybe we can find one later, but I... I don't have time."
"Sheng Linfeng activated the Gu poison, and I only have less than half a month left. I've already sent Sheng Yu to assassinate Sheng Linfeng. It's the only thing I can't bear to part with..."
At this point, Sheng Linyuan visibly choked up, barely managing to stop his tears. "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have bothered you. I'm leaving."
After saying this, Sheng Linyuan slowly stood up and stepped towards the door.
He set up this table of wine not because he really wanted to take Jinjin down with him, but just to put on an act.
To put on a show to satisfy one's own selfish desires.
He's going to die, but by making such a scene, his place in Jin Jin's heart will be irreplaceable.
Call it selfish, but he also wanted to use his death to become the unsurpassable white moonlight in Jinjin's heart.
He wanted Jinjin to compare him to everyone she would meet in the future, and that no one as good as him deserved to love Jinjin.
If that person is better than him, then forgetting him is only a matter of time.
Sheng Linyuan had planned everything perfectly. He intended to use the last half month to kill Sheng Linfeng and return to the country to make arrangements.
To pave a broad and prosperous road for his imperial pride, enough for him to rule the world.
Unexpectedly, just as they reached the door, Si Jin stood up and overturned the table in front of her with a crash.
"So, the Emperor of Dayong is this useless?" Amidst the crackling sounds, Si Jin chuckled, her smile laced with sarcasm.
"It's truly an eye-opener for me that such a trivial amount of poison could cause such a decline in health."
"Good, good. I even lied to Sheng Linfeng and made arrangements for you." Si Jin walked to his side and explained his plan to lure Sheng Linfeng into a trap, word by word.
Finally, he left with the words: "I am not one to be unable to let go. If you do not wish to continue this relationship, I am free to expand my harem. That's all. Goodbye, Your Majesty the Emperor of Dayong."
After saying that, he slammed the door shut with a "whoosh." Perhaps he used his internal strength, because it caused the wood chips on the door to tumble a few times, a sight that was both shocking and disturbing.
Sheng Linyuan didn't chase after him, but stood blankly in the room, unable to calm his emotions for a long time.
Jinjin doesn't want him anymore, what should I do?
He stared blankly at his hands, which had once stirred up countless storms, lost in thought.
Even so, I will use my last breath to give him an explanation.
… …
Over the next two weeks, everyone went their separate ways.
For the first ten days, Si Jin traveled all over the world, not knowing what she was going to do.
Having nowhere else to go in the following days, they took Shen Zhiyu out of prison and subjected him to slow slicing.
The arrogant young king, harboring some unknown secrets, could only muster a little energy when he was being slowly tortured to death.
Four days later, Shen Zhiyu finally breathed her last, and the system announced: "[Plot completed, 100 points awarded]".
Si Jin's eyes darkened.
He breathed a sigh of relief and was about to get up and go back when he suddenly saw an extra head on the execution ground.
It's Sheng Linfeng's head!
Immediately afterward, Sheng Linyuan's booming and deep voice rang out from the side: "Your Majesty, please wait! Your subject has come to present a gift!"
On his last day, he was still alive, not insane, and... doing well.
Si Jin's eyes welled up with tears, and the corners of her lips unconsciously turned up slightly.
The heavy stone hidden in my heart suddenly fell away, and even the surrounding environment became clear.
Sheng Linfeng had told him that this poison would make people suspicious and irritable, gradually lose their confidence in life, and eventually turn them into walking corpses, no longer human.
However, he didn't believe that Sheng Linyuan would turn out that way, which is why he was so angry when he saw Sheng Linyuan holding a banquet where they would all perish together.
Scolding him shows that you care about him and don't want to see him give up hope and become despondent.
Telling him about the plan was to encourage him to pursue the brilliant life that was rightfully his.
It's great now, everything is still in time.
Then we must... settle the score!
Si Jin held back the tears that were about to spill from her eyes, turned around, and coldly refused: "Are you saying that I should stay? Farewell."
