Yun Chu pursed her lips and tightened her grip on his arm.
At this moment, Li Ping rushed up and said to Yun Chuwei, "Miss Yun, are you alright? Who is this man? He's the one who kidnapped you! I'll kill him!"
As he spoke, he drew his sword and stabbed at the man wearing the Yama mask.
He was somewhat angry. His general's mansion was already heavily guarded, yet this person had managed to appear beside Yun Chuwei without anyone noticing. This made his defenses seem utterly useless. He was furious!
Yun Chuwei extended her finger and flicked it lightly, using the force of the flick to deflect Li Ping's sword.
Caught off guard, Li Ping nearly dropped his sword.
He looked at Yun Chuwei in shock: "Miss Yun, do you really know martial arts?"
He had initially thought that knocking out the assassin was a coincidence, but now it seemed that it wasn't.
Yun Chuwei said calmly, "I know a little bit about it."
Li Ping remained silent.
He flicked it lightly, almost sending his sword flying. He didn't quite believe that the man knew a little about it.
He pursed his lips slightly, not continuing the topic, but instead looked at the man in the Yama mask and asked, "Miss Yun, why did you stop me from killing this person?"
He felt that this person deserved to die.
Yun Chu pursed her lips. She couldn't very well say that she suspected this man was her fiancé, could she?
She casually remarked, "I think he has a great physique; it would be a shame to kill him!"
Li Ping: ...
Miss, what kind of indecent words are you saying?
At this moment, Yan Wei hurriedly walked over.
"Young Miss, I'm late. Are you alright?"
Yun Chuwei shook her head slightly, then said to Yan Wei, "Uncle Yan, take this person to my room."
Although Yan Wei was surprised, she knew that her young lady was not a ridiculous person.
So he didn't say anything, he just did as instructed.
Li Ping was completely stunned.
This young lady... she'll just have any random man take her to her room?
Is this young lady... really that unrestrained?
After watching Yan Wei take the person away, Li Ping was about to say something, but Yun Chuwei raised her hand to stop him.
She said, "General Li, I have other matters to attend to. Please make yourself at home."
After saying that, he leaped away and left the general's mansion.
Li Ping looked in the direction Yun Chuwei had left, and began to ponder, stroking his chin.
Zhang Gong walked over and, seeing Li Ping deep in thought, asked, "What are you thinking about, General?"
"Who do you think is better looking, the eldest or the second eldest?" Li Ping asked.
Zhang Gong knew that the eldest and second eldest sons Li Ping mentioned referred to his two sons.
Li Ping is now thirty-eight years old, and he has two sons, one eighteen years old and the other nineteen years old.
Those two young masters were all of superior appearance, personality, and ability.
“If we’re just talking about looks, the second young master is better!” Zhang Gong said, somewhat puzzled.
Li Ping immediately said, "Then let the second brother come back."
After saying that, he seemed to realize that he shouldn't put all his eggs in one basket.
"Let the eldest brother come back too. What if the young lady likes the eldest brother's type?" he said seriously.
Zhang Gong: ...
"General, what are you thinking about?" Zhang Gong asked helplessly.
Li Ping said, "You don't know, an assassin just came, trying to capture Miss Yun. The assassin was of excellent build and figure, but Miss Yun didn't seem to care at all that he was an assassin. She just had Yan Wei, who was with her, take him to her room. If that assassin is acceptable, then if I had my eldest and second eldest brothers seduce Miss Yun, wouldn't we be able to keep her here?"
Zhang Gong: ...
Why does it sound so unreliable to him?
Li Ping looked at Zhang Gong and asked, "Sir, do you think my plan is flawed?"
Zhang Gong coughed and said, "General, you can give it a try. Whether it works or not, we'll only know after we try, right?"
Although it seems unlikely, what if it works?
What if it works?
-
Yun Chuwei left the general's mansion to meet the masked soldiers who were there to meet her.
She directly relayed the message from the mask of Yama, instructing them to leave, conceal their tracks, and await further orders.
Although the masked warrior hesitated, he still left.
Yun Chuwei returned to her room and saw that the person wearing the Yama mask was already lying on her bed.
She came to the bedside and reached for the Yama mask.
This person, in both physique and aura, is exactly like Xie Xuan.
She thought about it carefully, and his appearance did indeed resemble the man she had met in her previous life who had killed Xie Sheng and Yun Lianhua.
Are they all Xie Xuan?
Yun Chuwei moved her hand and directly removed the Yama mask.
Xie Xuan's flawless face appeared before me.
Yun Chuwei sat by the bed, stretched out her fair and slender fingers, and used her fingertips to carefully trace the outline of Xie Xuan's eyebrows and eyes. She could easily tell that this person was not disguised.
She whispered, "Xie Xuan, it really is you!"
She had barely finished speaking when Xie Xuan suddenly grabbed her hand.
Then, she was violently pulled and fell onto the bed.
The next instant, Xie Xuan rolled over and pinned her down.
Xie Xuan pressed Yun Chuwei down onto the bed, gripped her chin with his hand, and said in a low, hoarse voice, "Yun Chuwei, do you have a heart?"
He was worried about her, that's why he came to rescue her.
He didn't want her to get hurt, so he shielded her behind him.
But she attacked him from behind.
He didn't even have time to react before she knocked him unconscious.
When he realized she had attacked him, he felt a sharp pain in his chest; he was in great pain.
When Yun Chuwei met Xie Xuan's accusing gaze, she knew that he still harbored resentment because of her attack on him earlier.
Her lips parted slightly, as if she wanted to explain.
The next instant, her lips were sealed.
Xie Xuan breathed heavily, stopping Yun Chuwei from saying what she was about to say.
He didn't want to hear any of her excuses; he just wanted to release all the pain and bitterness in his heart.
That warm, sweet touch seemed to draw out her very essence.
Only when his nose and chest were filled with her scent did the bitterness and pain in his heart begin to fade.
After a long while, he buried his face in Yun Chuwei's shoulder, his voice low and hoarse with even more grievance.
"Yun Chuwei, you have no heart!"
After Yun Chuwei regained her freedom, her breathing became somewhat disordered.
She leaned against him, and after hearing this, she whispered, "Is it that serious? You were wearing a mask, so it's normal for me to attack you, isn't it?"
Why does this person look like they've suffered a tremendous injustice?
Xie Xuan looked up at Yun Chuwei, who was pinned to the bed and motionless, and asked, "Do you dare say you didn't guess it was me? Do you dare swear on your Dao heart?"
Yun Chuwei remained silent; she dared not.
She did guess it.
She could only argue, "I didn't hurt you, did I? I just wanted you to bring it back to confirm my suspicions."
Xie Xuan buried his face in her shoulder, breathing heavily in her scent.
Just now, after waking up, he knew that Yun Chuwei had no intention of hurting him.
A glimmer of hope sprouted in his desolate heart.
However, before he fainted, the shock, disappointment, and despair did not dissipate; he remembered them clearly.
