Chapter 87 – I was just pretending (2/2)
“Okay, then I’ll tell all I know to you. I think that you’ll give up after hearing it!” Yu Ting hesitated and said. “ Situ Liang is my fiancé, this engagement is decided by the Situ family’s family head, Situ Dashan, and my father. However, I’m not Situ Liang’s legal wife, I’m the second, the mistress. Do you understand?” Situ Liang said in self mockery.
I naturally knew what was going on. In Huaxia, these ancient families completely ignored the marriage laws and still used the traditions from the old society. Furthermore, in the upper class of the society, people with power getting a second wife is no secret.
“This is the new age, the law clearly states that love should be free. So you are just going to do whatever your family decides?” I was a bit angry with what Yu Ting said.
“The law? The law is nothing in their eyes, what’s more, they didn’t break the law outright!” Yu Ting shook her head and said. “The Situ family is very influential, we are unable to resist them! Did you know that the Situ family controls the entirety of Yanjing city’s underworld forces! If I dare to break the promise, they definitely won’t let you go!”
“It isn’t certain who wouldn’t let who go!” Although the Situ family wasn’t weak, but if I really wanted to make a move on them, they would only be screwed.
Since ancient times, war was rarely far, the difference between power was always key in deciding the results of the war. No matter how amazing you are, you will die when you take a knife to fight against a gun.
That’s the situation between the Situ family and I. Yama and alien technology have my back, if we truly fight, this was a one-sided conquest.
“Liu Lei, stop talking, you don’t understand the Situ family’s strength at all. They know martial techniques! Situ Liang’s level is just that of a small fry, they have a lot more masters in the family. You couldn’t even beat Situ Liang, how are you going to oppose the entire Situ family!” Yu Ting thought about it, then still decided to say it. Although it would hurt my pride, it was better than me losing my life!
“He’s nothing in my eyes. I was just messing around with him,” I said plainly. Then retracted the energy that was used to maintain the injuries on my face.
Yu Ting was a bit confused after hearing me say that. Then when she suddenly saw the injuries on my face disappear, she pointed at me in shock and exclaimed, “Liu Lei, your face…”
“Hehe, do you understand now? I was just pretending!” I laughed.
“Ah!” Seeing my mysterious powers, Yu Ting was surprised and happy. However, she immediately said with an angry expression. “So you lied to me on purpose, then came to my home…” Saying that, Yu Ting also felt that her face was beginning to heat up.
“You seemed to have taken the initiative just now, right…” I scratched my head and said. “You can’t blame me, right?”
