He simply couldn't believe that this woman, whom he had completely disregarded, could pose such a great threat to him!
How could he not be angry?!
"Zhixuan, which way should we go?" Wei Wei suddenly leaned closer to him and asked.
The hot air sprayed onto Meng Zhixuan's ears, startling him so much that cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
This also disrupted his original plans, and his face showed a moment of blankness.
Wei Wei's gaze turned cold, and she raised her elbow and slammed it hard into his stomach!
Meng Zhixuan arched his body involuntarily from the pain.
"The Wei family!"
He roared in exasperation, "What are you doing!"
Wei Wei touched her slightly numb elbow and said coldly, "Because you lied to me!"
Upon hearing this, Meng Zhixuan's body stiffened even more.
A clear look of displeasure flashed in her eyes, and her voice was filled with hostility: "You really don't know Wei Xin's whereabouts!"
She then gave a cold laugh: "What a fine husband you are!"
Her voice was laced with sarcasm: "Not only do they want me, their rightful wife, to give up my position and become a concubine, but they also want to put my brother to death!"
"How can I forgive you?"
She sighed, "If I forgive you, I'll really be struck by lightning."
Having said that, taking advantage of Meng Zhixuan's inattention, the rope in his hand quickly wrapped around his neck and, as Meng Zhixuan's expression changed drastically, hurriedly wrapped around the tree trunk.
No matter how hard he tried to tear it apart and stop it after he realized what was happening, it was too late.
Wei Wei began to tighten the rope using the tree trunk. Seeing Meng Zhixuan's suffocating expression, her smile widened: "Zhixuan, do you remember? My brother, where is he?"
Meng Zhixuan's face contorted in pain, and he frantically tried to pull at the rope around his neck with his only remaining hand, but to no avail.
She was serious; she really wanted to kill him!
The increasingly profound pain finally made Meng Zhixuan realize the problem.
If this continues, he will surely die here!
No, it can't!
He's alive!
He used all his strength to stop the rope from tightening further.
They dared not take any more chances.
"I'll talk, I'll talk!" he shouted.
Upon hearing this, Wei Wei loosened her grip slightly.
"If you had said so earlier, you wouldn't have had to suffer like this."
Even though Meng Zhixuan hated her intensely at this moment, he had no choice but to lower his head.
"It was indeed my idea to kidnap your brother from the manor..."
"But then I had no say in the matter. They hid the people... and just told me to continue with my own plans."
"As I just told you, I truly and sincerely like Miss Jiang. That's why I couldn't accept the news of her serious injuries and did this foolish thing..."
He looked at Wei Wei with a pale face, his tone full of flattery and caution: "I did want to teach you a lesson back then, but after finding out that you like me, I changed my mind."
"I'm even thinking of letting you go!"
At this point, her eyes were already filled with regret: "But they wouldn't agree! I don't know how they could do this..."
Wei Wei asked curiously, "Who are they?"
Who exactly are these people behind you?
Would Meng Zhixuan dare to say it?
Will his romantic mindset come to a head when faced with death?
Seeing his troubled expression, Wei Wei decided to teach him a lesson he wouldn't want to learn. She wanted him to know that talking nonsense would come at a price.
He tightened his grip again, pulling so hard that Meng Zhixuan kept rolling his eyes back.
His body had gone limp; with just one more push, he would be meeting his maker.
His will to live finally allowed him to overcome all his concerns.
He spoke in a hoarse voice, filled with anguish, "It's Third Master!"
Wei Wei knew, of course, that it was Third Master.
She simply didn't know what Third Master's true identity was!
"Who is Third Master?"
She asked again, still curious.
Who is Third Master?
Meng Zhixuan didn't know this before; he only knew that the group of people were all rich and powerful.
But during the time he stayed at the manor to recuperate...
Others thought he was asleep and knew nothing, but his mind remained perfectly clear.
Naturally, I also heard a lot of things I shouldn't have heard.
These were the bodyguards who stayed by his side, ready to serve him.
The imperial physician who had been taking care of him and administering his medicine.
Everything was telling him that Jiang Changhe was a princess!
And the Third Master! He's a prince!
Your Highness!
Such an unattainable figure appeared right in front of him!
And he himself became entangled with that noble princess!
This is the luck he's accumulated over eight lifetimes, and he's always wanted to hold onto it tightly.
That's why I took this action to avenge Jiang Changhe!
But when the time came, those people didn't take him seriously at all.
They crushed his self-esteem to pieces.
He gritted his teeth and endured their contempt, waiting for the right opportunity to redeem himself.
But no one expected someone to suddenly appear.
He saw the guards on high alert and exclaimed, "People from Su Shou Tang!"
"How did they get here? Did someone provoke them?"
No one could answer, and they no longer had time to investigate.
Even though they were afraid, they had no choice but to rush out to meet the enemy.
That's how Meng Zhixuan got the chance to bring her out.
He said, "Wei'er, put your hand on your heart and think about it. Since you married into the Meng family, I have never mistreated you."
"I've been provided with the best food and things, and I've had whatever I wanted. You can't be so heartless as to try to kill me!"
After saying this, his eyes reddened: "Although I said I liked Miss Jiang, I wasn't without feelings for you either. Otherwise, how could I have married you?"
He looked at her earnestly: "After you let me go, let's live a good life together."
"I will never let you be a concubine again. You will always be my only wife, Meng Zhixuan's only wife!"
Wei Wei found his earnest vows increasingly amusing.
He probably still believes that what he did to him was just a result of his anger and embarrassment.
He only needs to humble himself and coax her to make himself feel better.
Then it's not too late to take revenge after he's safe.
But...
There's no chance anymore.
She sighed, her voice filled with regret: "Zhixuan spoke very well, but you haven't answered my question yet."
She said, "Whether you don't want to say or you've forgotten, you should think carefully before you answer."
After saying that, he shook a section of rope in his hand, his eyes icy cold.
