"You want me to seduce the Crown Prince? Why are you crying now that I've entered the pala

Chapter 194 The Tyrant Returns: Sang Sang, It's Me
"Don't hurt him, I'll go with you."

The girl's cold, delicate fingertips landed on the back of his hand. He had clearly heard the answer he wanted, but he seemed even more displeased than before he came.

Chu Junyan would not reveal it.

He was always like this; the more displeased he was, the calmer and gentler his expression became, making it impossible to guess what he was thinking.

"it is good."

His long, strong fingers forcefully inserted themselves between hers, interlocking with hers in a domineering manner that made it impossible for her to refuse.

The guard with the knife took the dagger away, and the man, without support, fell back to the ground like a dead dog, twitching occasionally, his breathing even weaker than before.

Qin Su's pitying and self-reproachful gaze swept over the other person, seemingly carrying a thousand words, but little did she know that in the eyes of the man beside her, it became evidence of her crime.

She was half-forcefully pulled by the man towards the carriage outside. After taking only a few steps, a shrill scream suddenly rang out behind her.

She paused, instinctively wanting to turn around and look.

But it didn't work.

The man's hand gripped her shoulder tightly, his voice as gentle as a lover's whisper: "Don't look back, unless you want him dead."

Qin Su was terrified. She didn't turn around, but her gaze towards Chu Junyan was filled with shock and fear: "What did you do to him?"

Chu Junyan was actually quite satisfied with the little girl's frightened look.

Unfortunately, few people dare to look at him like that normally.

"What do you think?"

The guards by the carriage bowed their heads in greeting when their master returned, but he ignored them and forcefully lifted the person into the carriage with one hand: "Dare to abduct the Crown Prince's concubine for so many days, there must be some price to pay, right?"

"What price?"

The girl braced herself against the car frame, refusing to get in. Her beautiful, stubborn eyes were fixed on him, determined to get an answer.

The guards on the side kept their heads down. The neighbors who would usually come out to see what was going on at the slightest sound were all keeping their doors closed and refusing to show themselves today, despite the commotion.

It seems they are well aware that some "excitement" is not something ordinary people like them can watch.

Seeing the girl's trembling, fearful yet unwilling-to-give-up expression, Chu Junyan almost laughed.

He didn't know if she acted the same way when facing that person, or how the other person responded.

But if she treats him like that...

When the man smiled, his handsome and superior appearance became even more dazzling.

If she were treated like that, he wouldn't show her any mercy; he would only want to make her cry, leaving her with nothing but tears.

"Why don't you think about it, what kind of men are in the palace?" Men in the palace?
The girl indeed began to think seriously, her delicate eyebrows furrowing.

Besides the emperor and the crown prince, the only men in the palace were eunuchs... wait, eunuchs?

"you……"

As expected, her face was filled with shock and disbelief: "How could you do this?"

After Qin Su finished speaking, she pushed Chu Junyan away and prepared to jump out of the car, but she did not have a chance to succeed. With the push of the man, she fell uncontrollably into the car.

It was early winter, and the carriage was already covered with a thick carpet. She fell in but was not injured. Instead, she felt a little dazed and confused.

Then a mocking voice rang out above her: "You won't get up? So you like lying down, huh?"

Qin Su was stunned for a moment, and then a shadow fell over her as the man's familiar, wicked smile appeared on his face.

She felt a sudden panic; at that moment, she was genuinely afraid.

"Get away from me, don't touch me!"

The girl's outstretched hand was nothing more than a mantis trying to stop a chariot in the man's eyes. Just like before, he only needed to exert a little force, and she had no chance to resist.

"Didn't I tell you that if you dare to run, I won't let a single person from the Prime Minister's residence go?"

The words whispered in the ear were like the hiss of a venomous snake, and the person being suppressed felt their whole body stiffen.

"It was my own decision to run away; it has nothing to do with anyone else."

Hearing that her family was in trouble, she finally panicked, and her originally pale face flushed red with excitement.

"Whether it matters or not is not up to you to decide." The man's smile was devoid of any genuine mirth.

"you……"

The girl's words of rebuttal faltered, turning into a panicked struggle: "Go away, go away, don't touch me..."

The faint sound of a girl crying could be heard from inside the carriage, but the person outside seemed to be dead, their expression unchanged.

"Please, don't do this..."

The girl's voice was already choked with sobs as she cried out that name in near despair: "Ling Xiao, Ling Xiao, save me..."
-
When Chu Jiang woke up, he was somewhat dazed. The surrounding environment was unfamiliar, and he seemed to be holding something in his hand.

He subconsciously pinched it, which elicited a soft hum in response.

He froze, then hurriedly withdrew his hand as if he had touched a hot potato.

I know this chapter is a bit short. I'm still debating whether to resume regular updates next month, so please bear with me for today.
