41 Stupid Pig, Qingyu (2/2)

Seeing her sneer, the boy grew enraged. If only he had his original form, he'd see if she'll still be able to laugh at him. However, Hongyue already knew this child-like form of his wasn't his true appearance which was why she wanted to get rid of him while he was still weak.

”You heartless woman! You didn't even give me a chance to speak! Did you forget I helped you kill your father's concubine?” He fumed.

Hongyue tilted her head. Who told you to help?

”So? I never asked you to help me nor did we make an agreement to work together. But since it was done to my benefit, I'll thank you.” She responded loftily.

”This is your thank you?!!” He hissed.

”No, I already gave you my thanks when I took the poison out of your body,” Hongyue explained calmly.

His eyes bunged in rage, ”YOU were the one who put the poison in my body.”

”Well, who told you to have your mouth opened?” She retorted back.

He trembled in anger at her response. He was sure if he spoke with her another minute, he was sure to cough out blood. Since they were well-matched with their powers, there would be no point fighting mainly since he was at a disadvantage. They were only tied because her body was weak, but he received her attack full on and hadn't been able to counterattack at all. In that sense, she was better off than he was because she wasn't all that injured. It'll be better for him if they don't fight.

”Why don't we call it a truce? My name is Qingyu.” He proposed, holding out his hand.

Hongyue eyed his hand blankly, ”If we have a truce, I won't be able to kill you in the future.”

Qingyu felt himself getting dizzy.

This heartless woman still wanted to kill him in the future?!!

Hongyue tapped her chin, musing. Qing (give all) Yu(world) meant give beyond the world. It was an excellent name, however, unsuiting for a brat like him.

”This won't do, I can't remember names all that well. Why don't I give you one?”

He opened his mouth to agree when her voice rang out.

”Stupid Pig.”
