Chapter 100 - Kill With A Borrowed Sword
Just as Xiao Tianyi was about to comfort Yun Qianxue, a voice dripping with sarcasm came from outside.
“What are you thinking sister? Dying? You only got hit twenty times, you didn’t lose a limb or anything like that. ”
Two figures entered through the door. Xiao Tianyi and Yun Qianxue automatically looked at the door and saw Yun Qianyu and Xiao Yechen standing there.
At the sight of Yun Qianyu, Yun Qianxue’s eyes immediately turned red. She became especially angry when she thought about the pain she had suffered.
Although her wounds had healed up after she had taken some elixir pills, the pain she felt during her punishment was real. The pain of skin tearing was not light. Worse yet, the news of her punishment had gone out, which caused her even more humiliation.
She was after all a talented and favored woman of the Dongli state. The more Yun Qianxue thought about it, the more she hated Yun Qianyu. Her eyes almost had a green glow which made her seem like a wild animal.
“Yun Qianyu, you came to laugh at me right? Having fun?”
After Yun Qianxue said that she wept bitterly. While crying, she looked at Xiao Tianyi and said, “Brother Tianyi, I know why my sister treated me like this. It’s because she likes you.”
She then turned to Yun Qianyu and continued, “Sister, I know you like his Highness Xuan Prince. You treated me like this because Xuan Prince likes me and he has previously hurt you. Thus, I’ll give his Highness back to you.”
Yun Qianxue’s eyes sparkled with evil. She knew that she couldn’t deal with Yun Qianyu head-on because she had Xiao Jiuyuan’s support.
However, even if she couldn’t deal with her, that did not mean she couldn’t use someone else to deal with her.
Sure enough, when Xiao Tianyi heard Yun Qianxue’s words, he immediately felt sorry for her. He stood up abruptly, looked at Yun Qianyu from a commanding position, and said, “Enough, Yun Qianyu, I said that we’re done. You shouldn’t obsess about me, I’ll not marry you.”
Still crying, Yun Qianxue said, “Brother Tianyi, don’t treat my sister like this, or she’ll come back to me for revenge.”
Xiao Tianyi stared at Yun Qianyu with anger.
“Yun Qianyu, this is my warning to you: if you dare to plot against Xue’er, I will surely deal with you harshly.”
As soon as Xiao Tianyi said that, Xiao Yechen let out a hmph and said, “Xiao Tianyi, are you planning to go against our ninth imperial uncle?”
Xiao Tianyi was stunned. His beautiful face showed his surprise, and his heart seemed to be pricked by needles. Xiao Jiuyuan’s order to punish Yun Qianxue today was basically a slap to Xiao Tianyi’s face. He felt that if he was stronger, then the woman he loved wouldn’t have suffered today.
‘Never again would I let her suffer like this’ Xiao Tianyi thought. He looked at Xiao Yechen and said without emotion, “When did I go against our ninth imperial uncle? I’m just saying the matter as is, if this woman dares to plot against Xue’er again, then I will deal with her. I’m sure my ninth imperial uncle will understand it.”
Xiao Tianyi then said to Yun Qianyu again, “I know your hate comes from love, but we are impossible, don’t be stubborn. Again, if you ever do anything to my Xue’er, I’ll deal with you.”
