Chapter 19 - Causing Suspicion

Song Shujin sat in front of the table coldly, like a creditor who came to collect debts.

”The Jin Wang has an appointment with a beautiful woman, I won't disturb it, right?” Yun Qianliang walked forward, his white fingers swept across the table as he slowly strolled to the round stool in front of him. He elegantly sat down and put on a seductive pose, smiling like a kid who was playing a prank.

Song Shujin frowned, he suppressed the disgust in his heart and looked at the lady sitting opposite him.

”Yun Qianliang, don't play any tricks in front of this king.” Song Shujin said impatiently.

Yun Qianliang lifted the muslin cloth covering her hat, lifted the brim, and chuckled. She straightened her body and took care of the outer garment s.

A cup of tea was placed in front of her. The tea was still steaming, so she raised her hand to touch the teacup to test the temperature. When she felt that it was appropriate, she took a sip from the teacup.

”My feelings towards Jin Wang are as clear as day. Even though Jin Wang knows this, he still invited me here. Isn't it because he wants to watch me play tricks?” The corner of Yun Qianliang's eyes hid a hint of a smile, and her tone lightened up and was very cheerful.

But in Song Shujin's eyes, it was as if Yun Qianliang had caught hold of his weakness and used it to threaten him.

”The matter with The King's Manor of Ning Xi, let's end it here.” Song Shujin spoke coldly, with a haughty and aloof command.

Yun Qianliang's eyes darkened, there was a touch of coldness in them as she looked at the face.

Yun Qianliang's red lips revealed a shallow ridicule. His fingers caressed the teacup, and the cold feeling of the porcelain plastered onto her fingertips.

”What kind of existence is Yun Qianliang in the heart of the Jin Wang?”

Yun Qianliang stared at the noble Duke in front of his, his cold and arrogant face seemed to be frozen in ice and snow, only coldness and ruthlessness could be seen. The person in front of his was just relying on Yun Qianliang's previous stubborn and determined look, treating her like a lowly slave, casually trampling on her pride.

Her ice-cold gaze swept across her face, revealing the impatience in her eyes.

Yun Qianliang sighed softly as she shifted her gaze away with a calm gaze.

When he didn't answer, she didn't speak.

Actually, when Song Shujin rejected the marriage, and requested for her to be betrothed to Gu Yicheng, everything had been explained, but Yun Qianliang was truly curious, just how did such a desperate love come about?

Wishful thinking that he liked her?

No matter how stupid she was, she could tell that Song Shujin did not like her, but why did Yun Qianliang insist on hanging herself on hanging from this tree?

Yun Qianliang recalled the letter and thought that she should have waited for a letter to ask her to give up on the investigation. However, he didn't think that Song Shujin only wrote threats and orders, as if his words were an irreversible command to Yun Qianliang and she would definitely listen to them.

”Do you need someone to remind you how dirty you are?” Song Shujin's voice was as cold as the snow on a ten thousand year snow mountain. It was as thick as a layer of snow that smashed onto a person's weak heart, and as cold as a knife. ”If you make things difficult for Qingyan again, this king will definitely make you regret you were born in this world!”

Yun Qianliang frowned in suspicion, and then, in an instant, let go of him as he parted his lips that had been pressed into a line.

”And if I refuse?” Yun Qianliang played with the teacup in his hand, with a cold expression, he smiled confidently.

In an instant, Song Shujin's venomous gaze shot over, containing a fury that was like a violent storm. He glared fiercely at the laughing girl, who was bursting with confidence, and a trace of suspicion flashed through his angry black eyes.
