32 Luring General Wei Into A Web (2/2)

Unless.

Unless...she had been faking it the whole time to get him to lower his guard and kill him! Had the third madam been doing the same thing?!! Why?!!

His eyes turned colder at the thought of it, but he couldn't refute it. It seemed to stand out like a fact. His heart chilled. There were too many untrustful people in his men, and his concubines were like hidden agents all out for his life. He couldn't trust anyone. What was the truth?

What were the lies?

Who was even on his side?

Or were they all out to kill him?

He stumbled back as his mind went crazy from the stress.

Hongyue's lip drew up in an evil arc.

Ah~

It won't be long until he breaks.

”Father?” She softly murmured, reaching out for his hand.

General Wei broke out of his spell. He looked at her with softened eyes. Yes, this stupid child saved him at the last minute. Not only that, he did disguise a fatherly figure to her for years. She was foolish and easily controllable. It was possible she was loyal to him. His eyes floated to her wound, and he coughed in distress, his eyes held a tinge of guilt.

Hongyue wanted to laugh.

She could read his changing emotions like a book.

Her eyes glowed as he ordered for servants to get the doctor for her.

More.

Fall in more.

That way you'll destroy yourself and all that is around you. I wouldn't have even to lift a finger.
