“The Emperor only rewards, rewards until there’s nothing left to reward. The Crown Prince doesn’t handle state affairs, weak and incompetent, unlike me. The soldiers I cultivated jointly advised me that I would lose the war, saying I’m becoming too powerful…”
“…I vaguely felt three black lines flying to my forehead. Liu Yu was not someone who would submit passively. He clearly knew what he wanted. Perhaps, as he said, only when he possessed the entire empire would no one be able to calculate or harm him. But why did he have to involve me?
Looking into his eyes, I carefully asked, “If I stay by your side, will you let him…”
His eyes filled with a stream as clear as a fabricated creek. He gripped my hand tightly, as if wanting to crush and knead it into his body.
s lips, “Is my affection so despicable in your heart?!”
“No, that’s not what I meant.” I painfully tried to withdraw my hand, but he held it even tighter, his nails digging deep into the back of my hand.
“I won’t let you leave me, and I won’t let him off!” He lowered his eyes, cruelly moving his lips.
“If something happens to him, you won’t get me either.” I suddenly pulled my hand out, extending my wrist before his eyes. His pupils clearly reflected the blue-haired braided bracelet. I said firmly, “We swore an oath to follow each other in life and death.”
His long eyelashes trembled. He grabbed my hand and flipped over, pressing me onto the bed. The blood from his chest seeped deeper, trickling onto me. Did this person not care about his own life? He seemed entirely unaware of his injuries. His face slowly approached mine, his breath brushing my face. He roared, calling me by full name, “Lan Jiao Long! Don’t test my limits!”
“I’ll make you regret pleading for him today!” He said viciously, his eyelashes violently trembling. His eyes slowly closed as he leaned next to my face, passing out.
Liu Yu, don’t make me hate you.
