The cold look on Yu Pingjun's face suddenly froze when he said "Mother" from the bottom of his heart, and his eyes became a little panicked and evasive.
She opened her mouth and took a long time to spit out a few words coldly.
"I am not your queen mother."
"No......"
Li Wutong bit his lip and kept shaking his head. The next moment, he suddenly rushed to the stone bed, choking and repeating the same sentence.
"No, no matter when, you are..."
"You are all..."
"..."
The cry mixed with the almost paranoid call echoed in the cell. The sound hit the stone wall and floated into Yu Pingjun's ears from all directions, like a knife that was scratching out her cold heart.
"Tong, Tong'er..."
The somewhat shriveled palms were raised tremblingly, as if trying to wipe away the tears on Li Wutong's face.
However, halfway through the journey, the hand suddenly stopped in mid-air. After hesitating for a moment, it turned to Li Wutong's shoulder and pushed the latter away with force.
"You don't have to act like this."
"I am a human being and cannot give birth to a monster like you."
"Every time you call me Queen, I feel more disgusted with you."
"To tell you the truth, if I hadn't been imprisoned in this heavenly prison right now, otherwise your identity as a bitch would have been known to the world! Let everyone in the world know what you are!"
"Keke, this is interesting to think about. Maybe if I have the chance, I would really like to see it with my own eyes."
"Oh, by the way, I heard from Wei Changtian that you thought about seeking death yesterday. It's a pity..."
Leaning close to the wide-eyed Li Wutong's ear, Yu Pingjun laughed softly:
"Why didn't you die?"
"..."
The fire flickered, and the moment Yu Pingjun uttered his last words, the air in the cell seemed to suddenly solidify, making Li Wutong feel breathless.
Disgusted, bitch, death...
Words with the most vicious connotations were like huge boulders pressing on her chest, making every heartbeat of hers extremely difficult.
Li Wutong raised his head in pain and stared blankly at the woman opposite him, but that familiar face became unfamiliar for the first time.
She fell to her knees in embarrassment and subconsciously moved backwards in panic, trying to distance herself from the latter.
Yu Pingjun, on the other hand, looked at her quietly and asked with a sneer:
"What? Do you still think I am your mother-in-law?"
"..."
This time, Li Wutong didn't answer for a long time.
...
If we want to rank all the emotions in this world, family love is undoubtedly the most selfless and pure one.
This does not mean that people can give up everything for family love, but there is no doubt that people are willing to pay more for family love than for other relationships.
Although in most cases such an emotion is born based on blood relationships, it does not mean that there is no possibility of cultivating it.
At least for Li Wutong, her involvement with the woman across from her existed a few breaths ago...but now it is on the verge of collapse.
It's hard to tell whether what Yu Pingjun just said was really what he was thinking, or whether he did it on purpose.
But her intention to sever the emotional connection between the two is obvious.
What she wants is for Li Wutong to hate her.
Perhaps only in this way can the hatred in one's heart be maintained and not be overwhelmed by guilt and emotion.
Perhaps only in this way can I be "worthy" of my forbearance over the past twenty years...
The corners of his mouth twitched slightly, and Yu Pingjun just looked at the lost Li Wutong silently, waiting for the latter's reaction, which might be despair or anger.
However, she did not get the results she expected.
"..."
"yes."
Suddenly, a faint voice sounded faintly.
There was a flash of astonishment in Yu Pingjun's eyes, and Li Wutong slowly stood up in the complicated eyes and completed his answer word by word.
"No matter when, you will be my mother-in-law."
...
...
A quarter of an hour later.
"Dong, dong, dong..."
The heavy cell door made three muffled sounds. Wei Changtian and Chu Xianping, who were waiting at the door, looked at each other and immediately called the jailer to come and open the door.
When the pure black door was slowly pushed open for the third time today, the first thing everyone saw was Li Wutong standing at the door with tears on his face.
"Mr. Gongzi!!"
"Woooooooo..."
All the tense emotions were released in an instant, and Li Wutong threw himself into Wei Changtian's arms regardless, and immediately lay on the latter's chest, choking.
The meaning of these tears is still unknown, and Wei Changtian did not ask immediately. He just patted Li Wutong's back gently and raised his eyes to look at Yu Pingjun in the prison.
At this moment, the latter is also looking this way.
The two eyes looked at each other in the air for a long time, and they were very calm from beginning to end.
Until the slowly closing prison door separated the two.
"boom!"
Amidst the loud noise, several jailers stood there looking at each other, somewhat at a loss.
After all, the actions of Li Wutong and Wei Changtian now go far beyond ordinary "skin-to-skin contact", and it happened right under their noses. It is impossible to pretend they didn't see it.
Fortunately, Chu Xianping reacted quickly enough, coughed dryly and said:
"Ahem, brothers, you've worked hard, go and have a rest."
"yes!"
As if they were granted amnesty, all the jailers immediately turned around and left, quickly disappearing at the end of the corridor.
Chu Xianping also left with them, leaving only Wei Changtian and Li Wutong.
"Princess......"
Feeling the crying in his arms gradually subsided, Wei Changtian waited for a while and finally asked: "What did you and the Queen say? If possible, can you tell me the whole story?"
"Um......"
Li Wutong raised his head with tears in his eyes. He grabbed the corner of Wei Changtian's clothes with one hand and quickly wiped away his tears with the other hand.
"Mr. Gongzi..."
"Mom, Queen Mother still hates me and my father..."
"..."
He talked intermittently, sometimes crying sometimes.
It had only been a quarter of an hour since Li Wutong entered the cell, but it took her half an hour to repeat it.
As for the result... As she said at the beginning, Yu Pingjun was not "moved" and still did not say anything about Ning Yongnian and Bai Youheng.
This situation may sound unsatisfactory at first, but Wei Changtian doesn't think so.
Although Yu Pingjun still hasn't spoken yet, in Li Wutong's retelling, it can be clearly felt that the former's psychological defense line is cracking little by little.
Therefore, Li Wutong's visit this time was by no means in vain.
What he has to do next is to continue to increase his strength and use his last trump card to completely "defeat" Yu Pingjun in one fell swoop.
As for what this trump card is...
The trouble should end it.
There is only one "culprit" that caused Yu Pingjun to be like this.
