He stared at Yu Qiaoqiao, his tone sharp and angry.
Yu Qiaoqiao lowered her head and kept kneading the handkerchief in her hands.
"Speak up! You're actually contradicting me repeatedly in public. What did I tell you? No matter what happens between you and me in Prince Xi's Mansion, you have to pretend to be in love with me in front of outsiders. Have you forgotten?"
As she said this, Leng Xi suddenly stepped forward, grabbed her collar, glared at her, and asked angrily:
"Yu Qiaoqiao, don't act tough with me. I can tolerate you once or twice, but I won't tolerate you many times. If you dare to contradict me again, I will make you pay."
"Kill me?"
Yu Qiaoqiao suddenly stared at Leng Xi, with a rare firmness in her eyes.
"How do you want me to look? You should kill me, so that you can show your majesty as Prince Xi. Anyway, you have killed many people, so one more won't make a difference."
"You think I don't dare?"
"Of course you dare. Your Prince Xi has been able to remain alone for so many years. What else can you not dare to do? I, Yu Qiaoqiao, am just a decoration in your Prince Xi's Mansion. Now I've had enough of this decoration. You can either kill me or divorce me. In short, I've had enough."
Her words made Leng Xi's face turn pale and blue.

"Lord Xi, I have been your nominal Princess Xi for six years. During these six years, I felt like I wasn't living in the Xi Palace, I was living in a nunnery. Now I've had enough. I don't want to continue living this celibate life. Please let me go!"
After saying this, she looked up at Leng Xi and said again, word by word, righteously:
"Give me a letter of divorce, or give me three feet of white silk."
Leaving these words behind, she turned around, pushed open the door, and walked out with her skirt lifted.
The reason why she was so angry today was because she saw Leng Yu and Luo Lan being so affectionate, and Leng Xi deliberately imitated them, which made her unhappy.
She could tolerate Leng Xi's neglect of her, but she could not accept him pretending to be nice to her in front of outsiders.
Seeing her rush out of the door, Leng Xi also stood there with a frown on his face. This woman was so bold that she dared to make such an unreasonable request.
He couldn't kill her, nor would he divorce her.
But how could she, who had always been submissive, become a wild horse that had broken free from its reins? Making him feel that he could no longer control her?
