Chapter 616 - You Should Be Begging Me (1/2)

Just as she thought she would be swallowed by the dark tides, she suddenly felt the grip on her loosen and she could breathe. She sucked in air greedily.

Holding her in the water, Lu Fenying said coldly, “Mo Qian’er, don’t be disobedient. I have plenty of ways to deal with you.”

Qian’er slowly opened her bright eyes, but where they usually glittered like stars, they were now full of hatred.

“I’m not afraid…” Her voice wasn’t loud, but it was firm.

Was she really not afraid? Of course she was. She had been meek her whole life and tortured by Lu Fenying for many years. She couldn’t become as unyielding as Gu Bailu overnight.

But she knew that she had to pretend to be unafraid, because the more scared she was, the more unrestrained Lu Fenying would become.

“Who gave you the courage to be unafraid?” Lu Fenying was about to submerge her in the water again.

Qian’er said casually, “The baby does. If you torture me, the baby won’t live, and if the baby doesn’t live, neither will Su Muwei.”

Lu Fenying stopped. He was stunned for a moment.

Was this really Mo Qian’er, his slave?

Had someone changed her core?

How dare she use the baby to threaten him? How dare she curse Muwei to not live?

“You’re getting really bold. You really think that Princess Zi can help you? If I want to kill her, it won’t take but an instant.” Lu Fenying felt that she had become like this because of Gu Bailu.

The determination to kill Gu Bailu had burnt in his heart more than once.

Qian’er’s heart became heavy. No. She couldn’t let him kill Princess Zi.

“Your Highness, you need to understand one thing. For years, both you and I have been mistaken. I shouldn’t live in fear at your command; instead, you should be begging me, because I’m the only one who can keep Su Muwei alive!”
