Chapter 137
When he awakened his memories of his past life, she had been married to that man for three days. He had already made plans for the worst and had convinced himself not to care about anything else as long as she was fine.
It was her who gave him hope and now made him despair.
Torturing him over and over again, and teaming up with other men to tease him.
No one has ever dared to play with him like this!
How dare she!
The hand on her waist suddenly tightened, and Xie Wan Ning could only let him flirt with her. She couldn't even say a word. She felt so painful and anxious that she burst into tears again.
The moment the warm tears fell, the fingers of the hateful hand on the waist trembled.
"Besides crying, what else can you do?"
Lu Ziyan pulled his hand out.
He lifted her chin and looked at her wet eyes. After a while, he lowered his head and kissed her.
The warm lips pressed against my eyes were surprisingly gentle.
Xie Wan Ning's eyelashes trembled slightly. She felt uncomfortable all over. She stood there stiffly, allowing him to lick her bit by bit.
This means she can't move. If she could, she...
After a while, he kissed her tears away completely before removing his lips and looking into her eyes intently.
"When you lied to me, did you ever think about the consequences of your lie being exposed?"
Are you going to just rely on crying?
Lu Ziyan was so angry at the idea that his teeth itched, but he was also helpless as he didn't know what to do with her.
After all, after the initial anger that burned his reason, he now began to worry that pressing the acupoints for too long might have an impact on her body.
Feeling angry at himself, he gritted his teeth and untied her acupoints.
"You bastard! What did I lie to you about?" The moment the acupoints were unblocked, Xie Wan Ning swore angrily.
Finally able to move, she covered her collar with one hand and raised the other hand, ready to slap someone, but Lu Ziyan held her wrist firmly.
“You lied to me that Pei Yuqing is a waste and you won’t consummate your marriage,” he pinched gently and said calmly: “Wanwan, if you don’t give me an explanation for this matter, I will do everything that just happened again in front of your husband.”
He paused and added, "It's no use crying."
He enunciated the word "your husband" word by word, emphasizing it very strongly.
Xie Wan Ning was shaking with anger, but she completely believed that he could do what he said.
How could he do such a ridiculous thing!
"What on earth did I lie to you about? I was kept in the dark that day and misunderstood him. When did I ever intentionally lie to you?"
"Is that so?" Lu Ziyan asked in a light tone, his eyes falling on a red mark on her shoulder.
He just moved his hands and didn't say anything.
Therefore, it is self-evident who left this trace.
"That's it!" Xie Wan Ning pulled her wrist free from his grasp and quickly tidied her clothes.
"I married him in a formal ceremony, so it's only natural that we consummated our marriage. There's no need to lie to you."
Marry in a formal way...
Lu Ziyan chuckled, "When did he touch you?"
Such a private matter between husband and wife should not be questioned by outsiders, but Xie Wan Ning dared not not answer.
She pursed her lips and said, "Last night."
As soon as he finished speaking, Lu Ziyan's red eyes opened and looked straight at him, "What did you say!"
Thinking about the whole process, Xie Wan Ning actually felt a sense of pleasure called revenge.
He was more panicked. Now he had gone crazy like this. After learning the truth...
"We didn't consummate our marriage on our wedding night because of the scene you caused, nor did we do so in the following days. I thought that maybe he was weak, but later I realized that I had misunderstood."
At this point, she swallowed nervously, and then continued: "Last night, he came back after taking the aphrodisiac, and we consummated our marriage naturally."
He came back with an aphrodisiac, and we consummated our marriage as planned...
Lu Ziyan's face turned pale instantly, "What do you mean by that?"
"You're lying to me again!" He gritted his teeth.
"I didn't lie to you, this is the truth," Xie Wan Ning looked at him quietly, trying to calm her surging fear and anger, leaving only the pleasure of fighting back.
She whispered, "Pei Yuqing and I are husband and wife. He was drugged, and I can't let him touch other women..."
“Shut up!” Lu Ziyan took a step forward, grabbed her by the back of the neck and approached her, his face full of anger, “The love potion he was injected with had worn off when he left Cuiyun Pavilion, where did the aphrodisiac come from! Xie Wan Ning, you liar!”
fraud!
His eyes were fierce, as if he was ready to devour someone, but his trembling voice revealed his true emotions.
Xie Wan Ning was suddenly not so scared anymore. She lowered her eyes, not wanting to look at his red eyes, and said calmly, "This is the fact. If you don't believe it, I can't help it."
After the words were spoken, the room fell into a long silence.
Apart from Lu Ziyan's rapid breathing, neither of them spoke.
The hand on the back of her neck never left her body. Xie Wan Ning was afraid of angering him, so she didn't dare to struggle at all.
After a long while, he said in a hoarse voice: "If...if he didn't have the Chinese medicine, would you..."
He spoke the sentence in a disjointed manner, and finally he stopped as if he felt that he was ridiculous.
He let go of her, turned around and kicked the table next to him, breaking it into pieces.
The solid wooden table was smashed to pieces by his kick, which frightened Xie Wan Ning so much that she shuddered. She felt that if she were to be kicked like that, she would be killed on the spot.
Lu Ziyan turned around, grabbed her waist and held her in his arms, gritting his teeth and said, "You are so considerate. You think of yourself as an antidote, but you don't even consider whether he really needs it."
He finally realized that the sickly man was full of tricks and was using him to take his people.
Not only did I trick him, but I also got what I wanted.
But it was he who took the initiative to make everything happen!
A familiar sweet taste welled up in his throat, and Lu Ziyan swallowed it hard, glaring at the person in his arms fiercely, "Do you think I would be stupid enough to let him leave Cuiyun Pavilion after he was drugged?"
Xie Wan Ning's heart skipped a beat, and she subconsciously didn't want to listen to him.
But he lifted her chin, not allowing her to dodge.
"Listen carefully, he's a liar! An old liar!" With blood between his teeth, he spoke word by word: "The effect of the Warming Love Powder is only two hours. I drank it myself. When he left, the effect of the medicine in his body had worn off. I don't need you to help him with the antidote!"
His eyes were red and every word he spoke was bleedin' blood. Besides looking scary, he looked even more pitiful.
Xie Wan Ning listened in a daze, and the overlooked details came to her mind instantly.
She thought about last night, Pei Yuqing was gentle and considerate, not at all anxious, and indeed did not look like she had been drugged.
Although Lu Ziyan is arrogant, he is not a fool. Even if he thinks Pei Yuqing is a waste, he will never let go of his love rival who has been drugged.
and so……
What he said is true.
Pei Yuqing did not have any Chinese medicine last night.
He lied to her.
He lied to her again.
Xie Wan Ning was a little absent-minded as she recalled every detail of their time together over the past few months.
They had known each other for less than a year, but they had spent a lot of time together.
Especially after marriage, there were many uncontrollable kisses between them.
If he proposed to consummate the marriage, she would never refuse it no matter when.
Why……
Why must he resort to deceiving her?
Because this was the sharp blade that Lu Ziyan had offered to him, and he only needed to use his own tactics to kill two birds with one stone. In the battle between the men, he won completely.
Lu Ziyan invited him in a high-profile manner, drugged him, used the beauty trap on him, and did not allow him to leave. He was indeed arrogant, so he got what he deserved and paid the price.
Who is she? She is just a part of the game between the two.
Or, spoils of war?
The one who was deceived was her, and the one who felt regretful and painful was Lu Ziyan.
Pei Yuqing is the biggest winner.
Xie Wan Ning blinked and finally figured everything out.
She slowly raised her eyes and looked at the man in front of her with red eyes and tears in his eyes. She raised her lips and said lightly, "Even if he lied to me, so what? He and I are husband and wife, and it's normal for us to consummate our marriage."
"…What do you mean?" His face was already pale, and it became even uglier after hearing this. "You are so picky with me, and you will hold a grudge for a long time if I say something wrong. He lied to you like this, and you are not angry at all?"
Xie Wan Ning didn't say anything, just looked at him calmly.
There was a hint of sarcasm in his eyes, as if saying that he was his legitimate husband, and how could you, an ex-fiancé who had taken him by force, compare with him?
Lu Ziyan's breathing stagnated, and he tried to suppress the bitterness in his heart.
But the pain had already penetrated into his bones. He could no longer bear it. The pain was so severe that he suddenly spit out a mouthful of blood.
Drops of blood splashed onto Xie Wan Ning's face. She widened her eyes in panic and clenched her hands unconsciously on his chest.
Has his internal injury not healed yet?
how……
Lu Ziyan raised his hand to wipe his lips and his eyes fell on her face.
There was no worry or anxiety in the girl's beautiful eyes except panic.
Every time she shed a tear, he would be at a loss and would want to raise his hands to beg for mercy.
But he was spitting blood, but she was not moved at all.
He thought maybe this was retribution.
This was the retribution for not protecting people well in his previous life.
The rough fingertips slowly wiped the blood off her cheek.
Then, he held her hand, reached into his clothes, and pressed it on the beating heart.
Xie Wan Ning's fingertips trembled slightly when she saw him force a smile at her.
That smile was filled with despair. She looked at him absentmindedly, and then she heard him say, "It's sick. Can you be nicer to it?"
Under his fingertips was his strong heartbeat, and he didn't sound sick.
But he did vomit blood repeatedly.
Xie Wan Ning swallowed, not knowing what to say for a moment.
She had tried to reason with him earnestly, and had even scolded him when she was extremely angry.
In order to escape from him, she did everything she should...and shouldn't.
As a result, the situation has become like this.
Both she and he were almost in a desperate situation.
If she had known this, she...
Xie Wan Ning closed her eyes.
Even if she had known this would happen, what could she have done?
"Please let me go. I beg you." She almost begged, "My past life is just a dream, please don't be obsessed with it."
Lu Ziyan lowered his eyes: "I won't let you go even if you die."
"I have already consummated my marriage with him," Xie Wan Ning said.
"It doesn't matter,"
Hearing about the marriage consummation, he was no longer furious, and his expression became calm. Only his eyes revealed murderous intent, and he said word by word: "I will wash away this shame with blood."
"..." Xie Wan Ning was speechless at his stubborn attitude.
But what could she do? She couldn't fight back, and she couldn't hide away.
In fact, she fully believed that even if she did not go out today and stayed at Pei's house obediently, he would still be able to stand in front of her without any scruples.
"What do you want in exchange for letting me go?" She smiled miserably, almost in despair, "Why can't you just let me live a peaceful life?"
Lu Ziyan felt no better than her. His complexion was already ugly after vomiting blood, and when he heard the words, his heart was in turmoil again, but was suppressed tightly.
"Have you forgotten that I gave you a chance in the other courtyard that day?"
He was very close, and the oppressive feeling that belonged to him was very strong. If it were normal, Xie Wan Ning would have tried to avoid him, but now, she just stood there numbly and let him get closer.
"Wanwan, you should continue to dream." He rested his chin on her shoulder, sniffed gently, and said, "If you could see what I became after you left, you would understand that I can't let go."
No matter what situation they were in, he couldn't let go.
"Do you know what I was thinking about during the two hours when I was poisoned by the Nuanqing Powder?"
"I'm thinking of you all the time. I want to go to the Duke of Pei's Mansion to find you. I want to kiss you..."
Lu Ziyan's Adam's apple rolled, "...In the end, I was afraid that you would be angry with me again, so I didn't go."
He prides himself on being a man of steel, doing things cleanly and efficiently, never dragging his feet, but as soon as this girl is involved, he starts to be cautious, afraid of both wolves in front and tigers behind.
If it were him in his previous life, he would never let things develop to this point.
From the day her memory awakened, she could only stay by his side, and her movement range could not exceed three meters.
There was no way he would let her go back and sleep with another man.
But she threatened him with death!
He had no choice. Her life and death was indeed his Achilles' heel, and he was scared to death.
Lu Ziyan laughed, put his lips on her neck and rubbed it slowly. For a moment, he thought about biting her hard, preferably until her skin was torn and blood flowed, but in the end, he just took a deep breath.
"I can't bear it very well, really."
He was also drugged, but he suppressed his desire, and the crazy girl he was thinking about gave her to other men as an antidote.
He was the one who made this happen.
He couldn't even blame her.
Just thinking about it makes me hate it to death.
Xie Wan Ning stood there motionless, letting him go crazy.
It wasn't until she saw him unbuckling his belt that her pupils suddenly shrank.
Lu Ziyan held her wrist with one hand, letting her palm press against his chest, and used the other hand to untie his belt.
Soon, he held her hand again and slid it down little by little, towards his waist and abdomen.
He sighed softly and held her stiff wrist, "Touch me."
Under her fingers were his tense abdominal muscles. Xie Wan Ning's numb heart was hit hard again. She moved stiffly and heard his breathing suddenly freeze, and then became heavy.
"Lu Ziyan," her lips trembled slightly, "Are you only good at getting in heat?"
Lu Ziyan smiled softly, "I know a lot, but I'm only in heat for you."
He held her wrist and continued to move down, biting her earlobe with his lips, and said, "I am still poisoned, Wanwan, please don't be partial to me and give me some relief."
"You like that man's pretense, don't you?"
"No problem, I can serve you gently as long as you like."
Wait for me~~~
