Evil Lady: My Hubby is a Traitor - C20

Chapter 20 – Playing Fishing

Yun Qianliang stopped in her tracks, but did not have the intention to stay.

“Seven years.” Yun Qianliang turned to look at Song Shujin, and suddenly said two words, only to see that Song Shujin did not understand the meaning behind her words, and she spoke straightforwardly, “Seven years ago, the late emperor bestowed marriage on me, I was only eight years old and have yet to pass on my love, and Jin Wang was already a weakling at that time, so there are many princes and princes that married at that age, you can’t possibly not know what love is, but you did not reject. After that, you entered the Yun Xiang Mansion again and again in the name of visiting me. A long time ago, I unavoidably harbored feelings for you, and I thought that although this marriage was given to me by the late emperor, you were willing to come to the Yun Xiang Mansion to look at me.

“Shut up!” Song Shujin interrupted with a disgusted look on his face.

“I indulge this feeling by taking root in my heart and growing into a towering tree. The roots of my hair are full and unable to be plucked completely.” Yun Qianliang acted as if he didn’t hear it and continued to explain, “During these seven years, it was as if my dignity and backbone was casually trampled and humiliated by you while you were lying on the ground. It was as if you were used to my humble attitude and had never looked down on me. To this day, in your eyes, I, Yun Qianliang, am just a dog that will wag my tail to please you.

Song Shujin was silent, as if he had tacitly acknowledged the attitude behind her words.

Yun Qianliang closed her eyes and sneered, when he opened them again, her eyes became sharp. He looked straight at the eyes that were filled with disgust towards her, and his cold words resounded in the air, “Song Shujin, don’t forget what you have always said, the heart is changeable, no matter how much I have treated you, I have been heartbroken all these years. Once I don’t like you, you will be even worse than a dog in my heart.”

The roots that cannot be plucked off can be burned, leaving only ashes.

Before Yun Qianliang could finish speaking, Song Shujin slammed his palm on the table.

The table in front of him shattered into pieces, and the teapot on the table fell to the ground, shattering into pieces with a crisp sound.

Gu San heard the noise outside and asked loudly: “Madam, are you alright?”

“I’m fine.” Yun Qianliang stood up straight, the sudden turn of events did not make her expression change, like a calm before a table.

Their gazes met in the air. His eyes were filled with the fierceness of a wild beast hunting its prey. Her eyes were like a bowl of ice-cold water, cold yet unable to cause ripples or even break.

Song Shujin moved slightly, grabbed her slender neck and furiously squeezed out, “Don’t think that just because you have Gu Yicheng as your backer, I won’t dare to kill you!”

“Of course you dare.” Yun Qianliang frowned as he struggled to speak out, “But to meet someone who abandoned me like a pair of shoes, how could I not be on guard?”

Song Shujin was shocked, only a silver light flashed.

Shifting his gaze down, a dagger was placed on his chest.

In that moment, Song Shujin’s face changed, he was surprised to see Yun Qianliang in front of his. His eyes became cold, and a beast-like light burst out from his beautiful eyes, as though he was a sharp sword, and the self-confidence at the corner of her mouth was unfathomable.

“You cannot afford the consequences of assassinating your highness.” Song Shujin’s heart was not afraid in the slightest as he tightened his fingers.

“This is not something that the Jin Wang can take responsibility of, I might be able to bear it.”

Gu Yicheng’s sloppy voice came from outside the window, followed by the sound of breaking windows.

Gu Yicheng then kicked open the elegant window frame and casually appeared in the private room.

Hearing that, Song Shujin was distracted for a moment, then taking the opportunity, he waved his dagger and slashed at the back of the hand that was grabbing onto his neck.

Song Shujin’s reaction was extremely fast, he loosened his grip and dodged quickly, the back of his hand was still scratched by the dagger, while his other hand immediately grabbed towards Yun Qianliang, causing Yun Qianliang to dodge to the side. She was worried that her movements were too professional, causing others to be suspicious, so she deliberately avoided and fell down, causing Song Shujin’s plan to miss.

Gu Yicheng’s figure slightly moved, and the fan in his hand barely blocked Song Shujin’s hand.

“It seems like the Jin Wang is very interested in other people’s wives.” Gu Yicheng teased, and out of the corner of his eyes, he shot a glance at Yun Qianliang who had fallen down, “This lowly one knows that my relationship with Jin Wang was not bad previously, but Jin Wang does not need to give me so many gifts.”

Song Shujin did not care about Gu Yicheng’s mockery, his sharp gaze shooting towards Yun Qianliang who was sitting up, and he said while clenching his teeth: “You schemed against this king!”

Yun Qianliang laughed lightly, stood up and patted off the dust on his clothes, then leisurely said: It’s not really a scheme, it’s just a form of courtesy, and a huge gift from Jin Wang.

“Yun Qianliang, good job!” Song Shujin’s face sank.

“Jin Wang is too kind.” Yun Qianliang bowed and replied, then said to Gu Yicheng: “I’ll leave the rest to you.”

“Wait for me in the carriage.” Gu Yicheng explained.

Yun Qianliang nodded her head, kept the dagger and tidied up her appearance, then walked out naturally and naturally.

Outside, Gu San and Lu Zhe heard the big commotion inside, but they did not get Master’s call to enter. Outside, they were anxious, upon seeing the door open, Yun Qianliang walked out safely. Gu San heaved a sigh of relief, Lu Zhe’s heart tensed up, and rushed in to check the situation.

Yun Qianliang moved her body, blocking the way, and laughed: “Lu Wei, my master and Jin Wang have matters to discuss, it is not your turn to listen.”

“Get out of the way.” Hearing that, Lu Zhe’s heart became even more anxious, his expression became cold, and he waved his fist at Yun Qianliang.

The Gu San was about to attack, but Yun Qianliang gave him a glance, telling him not to move.

Seeing the fist flying towards him, Yun Qianliang was not afraid, her red lips moved slightly.

“This slave will not teach, the Lord will.”

The six words were soft and sonorous as they fell to the ground.

When Lu Zhe’s fist was only a grain of rice away from Yun Qianliang, he stopped.

Yun Qianliang curled his lips, “Lu Wei, I will not take revenge for the past, you don’t have to be so anxious to send me the chance. When I have time again, I will take it back!”

Yun Qianliang took a step forward, retracting the fist in front of him.

Until she stepped out of the private room and closed the door, Lu Zhe still did not get the chance to rush in.

“Take care of the Gu San, don’t let anyone disturb the conversation between the Prime Minister and the Jin Wang.” Yun Qianliang put down the muslin on her hat, covered her face, and calmly ordered.

“Your subordinate will definitely not allow anyone to enter.” Gu San answered straightforwardly.

Yun Qianliang nodded in satisfaction and headed downstairs.

She and Gu Yicheng’s actions were different, Gu Yicheng needed to immediately settle the score, otherwise, he would easily be able to turn the other party around, but she would not be able to do so.

She was not in a hurry to find out whether or not the assassin on the wedding night was sent by Song Shujin. As long as she had the thread of Song Shujin in her hands, she would attract his attention so that he would not kill her in the near future.

In this world that placed too much importance on the value of power, it was possible for her to rely on others to save her and capsize, so she had to rely on herself to survive!
