There was a smile on her face, but a deep bitterness arose in her heart. She never imagined that such a day would come when she would have to confront the man who had promised to live and die together.
Ouyang Xi looked deeply at Ling Wu, and slowly clenched his fingers into fists, saying in a deep voice: "Why do you have to force me to do it?"
"Forcing?" A sharp sarcasm appeared at the corner of Ling Wu's mouth, and the indifferent mood in the past still disappeared: "Did the emperor force me?"
Only now did she realize that death is actually the easiest thing. Many things are more uncomfortable than death.
She had never cared about anyone, and no one was important except herself, but Ouyang Xi asked her to ignore her own life and use her own life to help him, but in the end, he still held someone else's hand.
Just like now, she just wants to hide far away and never see each other again. He won't let her curl up in her own place alone.
Do you want to say that she forced him?
Ling Wu gritted her teeth. The stinging pain in her heart made her whole body as sharp as a knife. She glanced at Ouyang Xi sideways with her raised red eyes and chuckled: "Just think of it as me forcing you."
Then his face darkened and he shouted loudly: "Do it!"
Ouyang Xi's eyes narrowed slightly, and she clenched her fingers tightly, but stood still and did not make a move.
There was silence in the main hall. No one dared to say a word easily. Even Ling Yun could only watch them look at each other in silence.
Ling Yun sighed inwardly, walked to Ling Wu, and saw the defensiveness in her eyes: "Ling Wu..."
"Ling Yun, aren't you pretending to be stupid?" Ling Wu didn't even look at Ling Yun and sneered: "That's right. Now that Ouyang Xi has become the emperor and his position is secure, of course you, a hero, don't have to pretend to be stupid anymore."
Ling Yun looked at Ling Wu silently, who was covered in thorns and was on guard against everyone: "Is there no one you trust in your heart?"
"Believe? Of course I believe it. If I didn't believe in people, how could I be like this?"
At this time, Ling Wu looked at Ling Yun's sincere face mockingly: "Do you think I trust people?"
