Chapter 927 - You’re Scared of Her (2/2)
“Bro-brother Lui, I suddenly don’t feel like eating here anymore. Let’s go.”
Xia Yixuan stood up as she stammered.
She finally understood why others looked weirdly with a mix of fear and terror at her when she returned after being dead for four years. She finally understood the terror of having a person someone had assumed dead appear before them after seeing Lu Xiaohua who was supposed to be dead.
How can Lu Xiaohua be alive? The knife went in. Song Wan, who had the same injury, is now a vegetable—half-dead and half-alive. How is she fine? Was she here for revenge and to take her down to hell?
No, no. Xia Yixuan calmed herself down. So what if Lu Xiaohua is alive? Don’t forget, Lu Xiaohua was the one who imprisoned me. If we’re talking about revenge, I should be the one taking revenge.
She comforted herself again and again, but she did not want to remain there. Even without Lu Xiaohua, she did not want to visit this place again.
Chu Lui took her coat and pursed his lips with Xia Yixuan in tow as if they had been forced away.
Xia Ruoxin fed herself another piece of meat. Her nose suddenly shriveled, and she forced the tears back. She looked down and fed herself the food little by little.
There were too many people that Xia Yixuan schemed against in this world. Since that was the case, let the scheming continue.
After they left, Chu Lui suddenly stopped. He stared at Xia Yixuan with his dark eyes.
“Brother Lui, what’s wrong?” Xia Yixuan was a little scared by his gaze. She hugged his arm. For some reason, she felt guilty and did not dare to meet his gaze.
“Brother Lui, why are you looking at me like this?” She touched her hair as she looked away.
“You’re scared of her?” Chu Lui took his arm out of her grip.
“Scared, what am I scared of? She should be scared of me,” Xia Yixuan said loudly. Her reaction only confirmed Chu Lui’s belief that she was afraid of Lu Xiaohua. Not just scared. She was terrified.
Xia Yixuan seemed to have found something after she raised her voice. She looked up, and tears rolled down her face.
“Brother Lui, shouldn’t I be scared of her? She almost killed me!”
Chu Lui would probably buy it if it was someone else saying that, but that was Xia Yixuan. She would resort to anything to get everything that she wanted. She would destroy anyone who owed her anything.
He tugged at his lips. He put his hands on Xia Yixuan’s chin and pinched it tightly.
“Yixuan, don’t forget how our marriage came about. If you lie to me, I’ll end our partnership, you understand?” He saw the marriage as a cooperative partnership. No, it was more like a business transaction. He sold himself to Xia Yixuan for a promise. Of course, he did not regret selling himself. Since it was a done deal, it had better not be a bad deal.
He never made a loss.
