Chapter 427 Come on, I'll pull you up.
Xiao Qingxi turned around abruptly: "Lin Rouxin! You really didn't die!"
Lin Rouxin sneered: "What, are you hoping for my death? Well, you'll be disappointed. I'll live longer than you, and I'll live better than you."
"You wretched thing, it's all your fault! You jumped into the river on purpose, but you're framing me for pushing you!"
"Whether I framed you or not, don't you know very well? If you didn't want to kill me, why would you be so kind as to take me on a pleasure boat trip on the river? I just made your murderous intent exposed a little earlier. This is not framing, this is exposing."
Xiao Qingxi gritted her teeth. She looked around and saw that there was no one else besides Lin Rouxin and her wet nurse. She couldn't help but ask, "Where is Huo Yunzhou? Liu Nanshi said in her letter that he would come too! Where did you hide him?"
"Xiao Qingxi, you're so stupid! How could Liu Nanshi possibly know that I would be having a secret rendezvous with Brother Yunzhou tonight? That letter was obviously sent to you by me impersonating her!"
"What?! It was actually written by you? But the handwriting on that letter is clearly Liu Nanshi's!"
"Is it difficult to imitate Liu Nanshi's handwriting? Her handwriting isn't even that good. You can learn about 80% similarly with just a little practice. Besides, I studied so hard that it's not surprising that I wrote exactly the same thing, is it?"
As Lin Rouxin spoke, she took two steps forward: "However, I'm not entirely lying to you, Brother Yunzhou, I will indeed be coming tonight."
"real?"
"Of course it's true. After all, I died and came back to life, and he lost and regained. Knowing I'm here, he'll definitely come looking for me. Alas, there's nothing I can do. He likes me too much, he misses me day and night, and he's been searching for me like crazy. When I saw how thin he had become, I felt so sorry for him, so I took the initiative to come back to life."
"Yunzhou is only thinking you're good because you've deceived him! He doesn't actually like you; he just pities you! He's only being nice to you because he feels guilty because your father and two brothers died trying to save him!"
Xiao Qingxi's voice was somewhat shrill: "The person Yunzhou truly loves is me! You'd better stay away from him, otherwise, if I can kill you once, I can kill you twice, three times! If you don't want to die, get out of the capital and never come back!"
Lin Rouxin sighed softly, "What should I do? I don't want to die, nor do I want to leave the capital. I haven't married Brother Yunzhou yet; it's always been my dream, and I won't be content until it comes true. Can you take the initiative to divorce me and give me the position of Brother Yunzhou's legal wife?"
Xiao Qingxi angrily cursed, "You lowly thing, you're dreaming! I will never divorce Huo Yunzhou, and you will never be his legal wife! You can't even be his concubine! As long as I live, you will never set foot in the Huo family!"
Lin Rouxin's gaze fell on Xiao Qingxi's stomach: "What if I also get pregnant with his child?"
"What did you say?! You dare!!"
"What if I get pregnant with his child while your child is lost?"
"Lin Rouxin, you're asking for death!"
"What if the Huo family finds out your child is gone, and you can never have children again?"
Xiao Qingxi became wary and backed away, clutching her stomach: "Lin Rouxin, you are indeed vicious and ruthless. If Huo Yunzhou knew your true colors, he would definitely despise you!"
"You should worry about yourself. He probably hates you even more now."
As Lin Rouxin spoke, she continued walking forward.
Granny Kang immediately stopped her and shouted sternly, "You lowly thing, get out of my way!"
Lin Rouxin turned to look at her wet nurse: "Nanny, she's in the way!"
The wet nurse nodded: "Don't worry, Miss, leave this old man to me!"
Lin Rouxin took a step back, and the wet nurse stepped forward, grabbed Kang Mama's arm, and easily dislocated it.
Granny Kang's face turned pale with pain, but she couldn't care less about herself. She was both shocked and furious: "You old woman, you actually know martial arts?! Master, run! They're trying to harm you!"
Xiao Qingxi turned and ran.
Lin Rouxin followed behind her at a leisurely pace: "Xiao Qingxi, why are you running so slowly? Weren't you in great health before? You could even ride horses in the Northwest, right? Why can't you now? Run faster, run a little faster, so you have a chance to protect your child. Otherwise, if I catch up with you, I won't be so polite."
As Xiao Qingxi ran, she suddenly stopped running because she felt that being chased by Lin Rouxin like this, like a stray dog, was too embarrassing and made her a laughing stock!
Although her body was indeed not as good as before she was pregnant, she felt that the weak and frail Lin Rouxin could not do anything to her. After all, she had practiced martial arts with her brother!
"Lin Rouxin, it's not too late if you kneel down and beg for mercy now, otherwise, I'll beat you to death right here today! I'll throw you into the lake to feed the fish, and no one will be able to find your body! You really know how to choose a place for yourself; this is the perfect place to be buried!"
Lin Rouxin stepped forward with a cold smile. When she saw Xiao Qingxi assuming a fighting stance, a hint of mockery appeared in her eyes. Xiao Qingxi had practiced martial arts, but hadn't she?
Xiao Qingxi's fist had already swung over, but Lin Rouxin easily dodged it. Then, she kicked Xiao Qingxi in the stomach, sending her flying into the lake.
Xiao Qingxi's screams echoed across the deathly silent lake.
Granny Kang roared and tried to come to her rescue, but she was suppressed by Lin Rouxin's wet nurse.
"Lin Rouxin, how dare you harm the princess! You will be executed along with your entire family!"
Lin Rouxin's face suddenly darkened: "Execution of the entire family? My father and brothers are all dead. What difference is there between the Lin family now and the entire family being executed?! Besides, is she a princess? She is nothing more than a criminal stripped of her title!"
"Even if the princess is stripped of her title, she is still the prince's legitimate daughter and the emperor's own niece! If you dare to harm her, the prince will not let you off!"
"Even if I don't hurt her, the Ning Prince's Mansion will not let me go. You originally wanted to kill me, did you think I knew nothing?"
"If I, an orphan, didn't have some self-protection and skills, how could I have survived until now?"
In the icy lake water, Xiao Qingxi struggled to the surface with a pained expression, slowly swimming towards the shore.
But as soon as she got ashore, Lin Rouxin kicked her back down.
Lin Rouxin watched Xiao Qingxi struggle in the lake, and her mood improved a little: "You can swim? I already knew that. However, the water is so cold and bone-chilling. No matter how good you are at swimming, you can't withstand it. I've already gone into the water twice. Now it's your turn to taste this feeling."
"You look like you're in a lot of pain. What's wrong? Is your stomach hurting? Are you going to lose your baby? Is it possible that even Physician Zhou can't save your child now?"
"Oh, by the way, Xiao Qingxi, let me remind you, if you soak in such cold water for too long, you'll never be able to have children again."
"Swim over here quickly, come on, I'll pull you up."
