Chapter 116 You can only choose one: Su Zhirou or Liu Yu!
Qian Yueshu stood up.
Looking at Xie Jingxing who suddenly appeared.
I was quite surprised!
It has to be said.
She really underestimated this man!
These two women were just brought in, and even the Crown Prince probably doesn't know what she's been up to.
But Xie Jingxing had already appeared right after him!
On the other side...
Xie Jingxing's first reaction upon arriving was not to question Qian Yueshu.
Instead, they searched everywhere for people...
When he saw Liu Yu with her hands tied behind her back, the rough hemp rope digging deep into her slender wrists, chafing and drawing blood...
Xie Jingxing felt an intense pain in his heart, as if he had been stabbed.
Su Zhirou was also abducted along with her.
She was huddled in a corner not far from Liu Yu, shivering, her sobs barely audible, tears streaming down her face, making her look even more pitiful...
The man's pupils suddenly contracted: "Qian Yueshu, you're insane!"
"Am I crazy, or are you, Xie Jingxing, just not a man?" Qian Yueshu raised an eyebrow: "Those two almost caused my cousin and her two children to lose their lives. Shouldn't I stand up for her?"
Upon hearing the name Qian Yueqiu...
He felt a little guilty, and even his tone lowered three degrees: "Qian Yueshu, do you know what you are doing? You are the Crown Princess... the future Empress, how can you do such a disgraceful thing?"
"Oh? What do you think I should do?"
Qian Yueshu teased, "Just because I'm the Crown Princess doesn't mean I have to swallow my pride!"
"Have you thought about the consequences?" Seeing that gentle persuasion wasn't working, Xie Jingxing resorted to threats.
"What consequences?" Qian Yueshu countered blatantly, "So what if Prime Minister Liu finds out I kidnapped his granddaughter? I don't believe he'd dare let the Ninth Prince know about your affair with Liu Yu!"
It was like a deliberate provocation.
Qian Yueshu also slapped Liu Yu's face several times.
It was probably because I used too much force.
I just slapped him.
Liu Yu's cheeks were swollen, her mouth was cracked, and warm blood was flowing down her lip...
Xie Jingxing's eyes turned cold, and a flash of murderous intent crossed his brow.
"What, you want to kill me?" Qian Yueshu asked, completely unconcerned.
Xie Jingxing would certainly not do that.
Let's not even talk about how many people Qian Yueshu has here.
Even if he really could kill.
Xie Jingxing didn't dare to kill him either.
The main reason is that His Highness the Crown Prince is too fond of Qian Yueshu.
If he kills Qian Yueshu, the Crown Prince will definitely fight him and the Xie family to the death.
Moreover, he was the one in the wrong...
Qian Yueqiu and the Qian family will not let him off the hook then!
Looking at Xie Jingxing, who only dared to grit his teeth at him.
Qian Yueshu laughed heartily, her smile bright but chilling: "You can only choose one of these two women... take one with you."
She paused, admiring the changing expressions on Xie Jingxing's face, and slowly announced the rules of the game: "You should know... the one who isn't taken away by you... might not survive..."
Xie Jingxing stared at her incredulously: "You're really crazy!"
"I'm not crazy, I'm perfectly sober."
Qian Yueshu walked up to him, lowered her voice, and said with a seductive malice, "If you choose, one of you can live. But if you don't choose..."
She drew out her words, her gaze sweeping over the pale-faced Su and Liu: "But neither of them can live! Time is running out, think it through."
A deathly silence fell over the dungeon.
The only sounds were the occasional crackling of the burning oil lamp and Su Zhirou's suppressed sobs.
She seemed to have foreseen her fate!
Liu Yuke was Xie Jingxing's most beloved woman.
He will definitely choose her.
Therefore, Su Zhirou could only use crying to arouse the men's passion.
She wanted Xie Jingxing to choose neither of them and take both of them away!
Xie Jingxing's chest heaved violently.
His gaze darted back and forth between Su Zhirou and Liu Yu.
Su Zhirou looked at him with teary eyes, her gaze full of pleading.
Liu Yu looked smug!
Xie Jingxing loves her so much, he will definitely choose her.
Even if no one else chooses her, she'll be the first one they take away!
This is the source of Liu Yu's confidence!
Whether it's competing on family background or on Xie Jingxing's love.
She will never lose!
Xie Jingxing readily agreed and said the name "Liu Yu".
In an instant.
Su Zhirou's crying stopped abruptly.
She suddenly looked up at Xie Jingxing, as if she wanted to say something, but her lips trembled and she couldn't make a sound.
That's true.
She had known what kind of person Xie Jingxing was for a long time.
He was also on his revenge list.
But I am weak.
For now, we can only rely on him to take revenge on others!
With Qian Yueshu's permission.
Xie Jingxing pulled Liu Yu away without even glancing at Su Zhirou.
Liu Yu's eyes held a complex and unreadable expression.
There is a sense of relief that one has survived a disaster.
Perhaps there's also a hint of...guilt?
After all, Su Zhirou trusted her, which is why she plotted everything with her.
But in the end, she couldn't protect Su Zhirou!
After the two of them left.
"Hahahaha!" Qian Yueshu burst into a hearty laugh.
She walked up to Su Zhirou and slapped her cheek with the cold dagger. "Did you hear that, Madam Xie??"
Qian Yueshu deliberately emphasized the pronunciation of those three words.
Every word was like a barbed whip lashing at Su Zhirou's heart: "You are Xie Jingjing's lawfully wedded wife, and you even so thoughtfully and generously helped him and his mistress get together. How come you're so worthless when it comes to this life-or-death situation?"
Her voice wasn't loud, but every word was piercing.
Like a venomous snake's tongue, it licked at Su Zhirou's already battered dignity: "It seems you, as a substitute, really have no weight at all!"
The word "substitute" was like two red-hot poisonous thorns, piercing Su Zhirou's most hidden wound with absolute precision!
She shuddered violently, her pupils contracted sharply, and she even paused in her breathing for a moment.
How could Qian Yueshu know?
This was a taboo subject that she dared not easily touch, even in the dead of night.
But now is not the time for her to think about those things...
Su Zhirou can only try to save herself now.
She thought of the incident a few days ago when she and Xie Jingxing teamed up to deal with the Sixth Prince's Consort...
Actually, they originally planned to bring Qian Yueshu in.
However, the problems with the sixth prince's wife's father and elder brother remain unresolved.
They felt the benefits weren't enough, so they didn't have a chance to speak up.
Actually, we should bring Qian Yueshu in.
Using the Qian family's money to compete with the Hu family was mainly Xie Jingxing's idea...
But now she's just doing a favor.
My mind is made up.
Su Zhirou forced herself to calm down.
She raised her eyes, and although her face was pale and her hair was disheveled, a faint but firm light rekindled in her eyes: "If the Crown Princess kills me, it will only be a momentary act of venting your anger. Apart from forging a deadly feud with the Su family and bringing endless trouble, it will bring you no real benefit."
