Situ Qingyu flipped over the table in anger, causing all the dishes and plates on the table to crash to the ground in a giant mess.
Fuck, you think you’re so impressive just because you’re strong? I’ll have you know that I was able to flip tables too when I practiced the Unsurpassable Martial Arts!
“Keep a tight watch on this courtyard. No food is to be delivered here!” Situ Qingyu shouted towards the guard stationed at the door before saying coldly to Ning Shu, “Since you don’t want to eat, just starve to death.”
Ning Shu gave a very haughty humph and continued looking at him with disdain and pity.
Situ Qingyu became even angrier and said darkly, “It seems you don’t want your eyes anymore, for you to dare look at this general that way.”
Then he gave a cold laugh. “They all say that once you obtain a woman’s body, you’ll eventually obtain her heart. Despite your conceited pride, once this general obtains you, in the future you’ll be crying and shouting that you love this general and beg this general to grant you love.”
Ning Shu: …
Situ Qingyu walked closer to Ning Shu, his eyes dark. It was clear he had decided to use force on her again. However, Ning Shu remained unconcerned as she looked at him and remarked, “You smell like leftovers.”
When Situ Qingyu flipped the table earlier, some of the soup had splashed onto him.
Situ Qingyu’s face turned ashen. “Mu Yanmeng, you’ve repeatedly tested this general’s patience. This general will make you pay for it.” Following that, he turned around and left.
Ning Shu curled her lips in disdain. He really had an extremely big ego, but at the same time, he also had a very strong inferiority complex.
After Situ Qingyu gave the command to stop delivering food here, no one came with food for several days, so Ning Shu and Yue Lan just ate buns every day. From time to time, the square-faced hidden guard would bring them some food as well.
Ning Shu passed her days comfortably.
Situ Qingyu had fully expected Mu Yanmeng to come beg him, but there was no trace of her even after he waited for several days. When he saw that she was still perfectly well and lively, he laughed coldly. He had forgotten that this woman still had a hidden guard.
He said maliciously, “If this general killed your hidden guard, what else would you have to rely on?”
Ning Shu responded with a sarcastic laugh. She had no interest in talking with a psychopath.
Situ Qingyu’s expression turned cold. “This general seriously can’t understand where your pride stems from. You’re no longer the prime minister’s daughter, no longer a noble miss of Donghua, you’re just this general’s captive, a female slave. Your life and death depends on this general’s whim.”
“What you should be doing right now is currying favor with this general by offering up your heart, your soul, your body. You shouldn’t keep provoking this general, you won’t be able to endure the consequences.” Situ Qingyu looked down at Ning Shu in an aloof manner.
Ning Shu: …
He sure was good at holding a conversation by himself.
When Situ Qingyu saw that his words had no effect on Ning Shu, he decided to use force again. Ning Shu didn’t even think and immediately blew the whistle.
The hidden guard, who was dressed in black again, jumped in through the window. Situ Qingyu looked at the hidden guard coldly. “If this general doesn’t kill you today, this general’s surname is no longer Situ.”
The two collided in battle. This time, the guard didn’t run off and faced Situ Qingyu with all his strength. They seemed quite evenly matched.
“General, the Benevolent Prince has arrived and is waiting for you in the drawing room.” The guard outside the door reported to Situ Qingyu.
Situ Qingyu froze for an instant, and the hidden guard immediately took advantage of his distraction to attacked him. Situ Qingyu gave a muffled groan and clutched his chest as he wiped the blood spilling out of the corners of his mouth. He swept his cold glare over the hidden guard and Ning Shu as he said, “Ha, very nice.”
The hidden guard jumped straight out of the window and ran.
Situ Qingyu glanced at Ning Shu, then turned and left.
Ning Shu patted her chest in relief and said, “Managed to avoid it again.”
“Miss ah, let’s leave this place already. It’s seriously too dangerous,” said Yue Lan, her face pale.
Ning Shu exhaled slowly.
After just a little while, a maid came to tell Ning Shu, “General has called you to the drawing room. The prince wishes to see you. General said to tell you to dress sloppily.”
Luo Junyan wanted to see her?
Dress sloppily?
“Yue Lan, help me get dressed. Make me as beautiful as possible,” said Ning Shu.
Yue Lan immediately replied, “Understood!”
Yue Lan was hoping that the prince regent could bring her miss out of here.
