"Young Master Tao, I have said everything I needed to say. Farewell!" Chen Siyuan did not want to stay any longer.
She didn't know if today's meeting was deliberately arranged, or how many eyes were watching. She told herself that leaving at this time was better for everyone.
Tao Yifan seemed to have lost his mind due to the stimulation.
No one knows how rational a person is normally, or how much they suppress themselves. When that suppression finally rebounds and explodes, no one can know for sure.
Tao Yifan suddenly stood up, grabbed Chen Siyuan's hand, and held it tightly.
It seemed that as long as he held on, he would hold onto this woman forever, and she would never have another chance to escape.
He instantly understood. The Tao family, the Third Prince—at this moment, he didn't care about any of that. The only thing he cared about was this woman.
If Tao Yifan had the same thoughts he has now, perhaps they wouldn't have ended up like this.
Unfortunately, it's too late now.
Even if you try to make amends, sometimes it's to no avail.
"Young Master Tao, please let go!"
Chunlan and Chunping were shocked. What exactly was Tao Yifan going to do?
They wanted to take action, but Chen Siyuan stopped them.
She could never speak ill of Tao Yifan.
I don't want to hurt this man's heart again.
"Chen Siyuan." Tao Yifan felt a pang of pain as he was pushed away. He finally understood that the way he had pushed her away that day, though seemingly for her own good, had actually broken her heart.
At this moment, what Tao Yifan couldn't accept was that such a push away meant that the woman had another man in her heart.
It seemed that he could no longer see his own existence in this woman's eyes.
This is what Tao Yifan finds most intolerable.
"Young Master Tao, please have some self-respect." Chunlan couldn't hold back and attacked Tao Yifan.
The young lady cherishes her past with Tao Yifan, but in the capital, she is in danger. Being seen in this situation might not mean anything to a man, but it would be a different story for the young lady.
"Get out—" Tao Yifan didn't even consider a mere maidservant worthy of his attention.
Suddenly, he pulled Chen Siyuan closer, but Chen Siyuan tried to break free. In the struggle, Chen Siyuan's sleeve was torn open.
Sizzle—
Chen Siyuan revealed her fair arms, and the bright red mark on her arm was exposed to everyone.
Tao Yifan was shocked.
Chunlan Lika blocked the way.
Chunping straightened the young lady's sleeves.
“Tell me, what is this?” Tao Yifan asked.
"Whatever it is, it has nothing to do with Young Master Tao."
"You and he are just pretending to be a couple!"
"Young Master Tao, this is my matter, please don't say any more." Chen Siyuan's position in the Qiao family was already awkward, and if this matter were to be publicized, she didn't know what would happen in the end.
Do you know how I've been getting through these days?
"Stop talking." In the end, Chen Siyuan couldn't bring herself to be cruel to this man. She had seen how much he had sacrificed for her.
Her striking white hair, in particular, made her feel uncomfortable.
She always felt that she owed this man something.
Indeed, that is the case.
"Every day feels like an eternity!"
"......"
"Whatever conditions he agreed to, I can do the same." Tao Yifan's voice trembled slightly.
"I......"
“Yuan’er, you have to believe me. He’s too dangerous. You’ll be implicated if you stay by his side.”
"......"
Seeing that the woman remained silent, Tao Yifan spoke up, "You should have heard of the Demonic Sect, you should know about the Demonic Sect's distorted humanity, and he is the leader of the Demonic Sect, Hongyan."
Chen Siyuan's face drained of all color.
She hadn't encountered the Demonic Cult this time, but she knew about it in her previous life.
What I hear most often is that the Demonic Sect has done all sorts of heinous things. Every year, many people in the martial arts world go to besiege the Demonic Sect, but unfortunately, they return disappointed time and time again, and many people die as a result.
Because of this, the members of the Demonic Sect became even more arrogant.
Thinking about it, Qiao Yuchen's personality really does have too many similarities to the many rumors about the Demonic Sect.
Is this, is this real?
If this is true, what should she do?
"The members of the Demonic Cult have killed countless people. It's too dangerous for you to be near them."
“His identity was already dangerous. Even now, with the protection of the General’s Mansion, he is still following the Seventh Prince. In the current political climate, the old emperor’s health is deteriorating and he could die at any time.”
They could die at any moment.
Upon hearing this, Chen Siyuan lost her composure and abruptly pushed Tao Yifan away, saying, "So what?"
"Are you...won't you wake up?"
"Whatever my relationship with him is none of your concern," Chen Siyuan said, pushing Tao Yifan away and turning to leave.
But Tao Yifan grabbed her, and Chen Siyuan got angry and slapped Tao Yifan across the face.
This slap seemed to wake everyone present up.
Chunlan and Chunping immediately stood protectively in front of Chen Siyuan.
They felt that even if Tao Yifan made a move, they shouldn't lose too badly.
Tao Yifan was stunned, staring at the woman in front of him for a long time.
Chen Siyuan paused for a moment, then looked at Tao Yifan, "Young Master Tao, let's forget about the past between us!"
Tao Yifan's expression changed instantly, turning grim. He gritted his teeth, "Forgot?"
If he really forgot, why would he be standing here?
"yes."
After saying this, Chen Siyuan was unwilling to argue with him any further and quickly walked out of the teahouse.
