Favoring a Hidden Mistress? Engagement Broken-Chapter 135 - 107

His expression was fierce, looking terrifying in that moment, but his eyes were unmistakably trembling, his lips trembling as well.

Xie Wanqing could tell with just one glance that he was scared to death right now.

Gone was the earlier calm, the composed demeanor.

She felt a strange sense of satisfaction rising in her heart.

So, the thing Heir Lu fears most is her death.

Want to give it a try?

Her neck was being strangled, but it didn’t actually affect her speech much—instead, her overly intense emotions rendered her speechless.

After quite a while, she finally felt she could breathe, Xie Wanqing grasped the wrist at her neck and gave him a tragic smile: "Alright, let’s try it, how did you deal with them?"

"I’ll tell you, Lu Ziyuan, unless you dislocate my jaw, break my arms and legs, have people watch me day and night, otherwise, I will always find a way to die."

Dislocated jaw, broken arms and legs, watched day and night.

If any flaws appeared among them, she would die without hesitation.

Pain seeped from Lu Ziyuan’s gaze bit by bit, he was in such pain that his vision turned dark, face contorting grotesquely.

"Fearless of death in this way?"

It seemed he was severely injured internally, blood continued to trickle from the corner of his mouth, and when he spoke, the fresh blood flowed even quicker.

In this sorry state, Xie Wanqing felt no pity at all; she glared at him with hatred: "Compared to your endless harassment, death is indeed not terrifying."

Such hurting words caused the hand at her neck to loosen momentarily, but the next moment Lu Ziyuan seemed to react, gripping tighter again.

Like holding onto his own lifeline.

He was in such pain that he couldn’t speak, maintaining that posture, watching her, eyes shamelessly filled with panic and helplessness, almost pleading.

Being looked at with such eyes, Xie Wanqing had the thought that she truly did not love him anymore.

Otherwise, why would there be not a shred of emotion, not a bit of hesitation, not one inch swayed by his gaze.

She could even laugh and say to him: "I really will die, Lu Ziyuan, are you going to push me to death one more time?"

Lu Ziyuan looked at her, pale-faced, she knew best where to pierce his heart, to hurt him the most, knew what to do to make him suffer.

He closed his bloodshot eyes, like a lone wolf, digesting his emotions.

Xie Wanqing began to try to break free from his restraint, but as she moved slightly it seemed to disturb something, his hand gripping her neck slowly moved to the back, suddenly using force to lift her whole body up.

Lu Ziyuan leaned down to her ear, speaking softly, "My Wanwan really is courageous...just don’t know if your parents, your Xie Family clan, can be as brave and fearless as you."

Xie Wanqing stiffened all over, looking at him incredulously.

She only heard him continue: "You still don’t know, I spent five years conquering the world in my past life and ascending the throne, it won’t take so long in this life, do you believe it?"

His voice was so gentle, warm breath spreading from her ear to every limb, yet it only sent chills down her spine.

Indeed, he would be Emperor.

He would be the supreme ruler of the world.

No one could defy him.

The girl beneath showed a panicked expression, Lu Ziyuan instinctively squeezed her stiff neck to soothe her, yet his voice grew gentler.

"I just want to be good to you, you don’t have to do anything, just stay obediently by my side, and I will bring you the best in the world, why resist me?"

"I know I owe you, know you have suffered many grievances beside me, this life I will repay you for each one, I’ll compensate you doubly, will you give me a chance?"

He lowered his head to plant a gentle kiss on her forehead, speaking softly, "Wanwan, return to my side, you will become the most honorable woman under heaven."

Xie Wanqing blinked blankly, her gaze focusing on his slightly protruding Adam’s apple, staring in a daze.

What do they call mixing kindness and force?

This is probably it.

First threaten with family, then promise supreme fame and status.

One slap, one candy.

Could it be said he truly is a man destined to ascend the throne?

If she were sensible, should she kneel obediently and give thanks to this future Emperor?

The room fell into a deathly silence, the movement from outside became more pronounced.

This time even Xie Wanqing could hear the footsteps.

The visitor seemed a bit anxious but dared not disturb inside hastily, pacing back and forth outside.

Lu Ziyuan remained unreactive, his gaze unwaveringly fixed on the girl in his arms, terrified a moment of inattention would cause her to bite her tongue and end her life.

The feeling of the person in his arms growing colder bit by bit, he never ever wanted to experience.
