Shen Yinshuang woke up when Xiao Yin entered the room.

Perhaps they were too sensitive about Xiao Yin.

She looked at Xiao Yin quietly, then struggled to sit up.

But Xiao Yin saw the conflict in Shen Yinshuang's eyes.

It's a conflict with oneself.

Xiao Yin's gaze darkened.

Shen Yinshuang covered her face with a handkerchief and coughed a few times.

She had clearly exerted herself, but she remained completely pale.

In addition, she wore less makeup.

It made them appear even weaker.

Xiao Yin remained silent.

It was Shen Yinshuang who broke the silence: "General, are you satisfied?"

The sound was very quiet, without even any emotional fluctuation.

However, between these lines, Shen Yinshuang's despair is palpable.

Furthermore, the hatred in her eyes when she looked at Xiao Yin.

Xiao Yin became increasingly tense.

But he continued walking step by step toward Shen Yinshuang.

Shen Yinshuang kept backing away until she was pressed against the edge of the bed, unable to move.

Xiao Yin's face also darkened.

Shen Yinshuang is his woman.

But behind his back, she had an affair with Pei Shou'an and became pregnant.

Now that the child is gone, she still dares to look at me like that.

Oh--

Xiao Yin let out a cold laugh.

He had cornered Shen Yinshuang to the point where she had nowhere to retreat.

He looked down at Shen Yinshuang, grabbed her chin with both hands, and every word he uttered seemed cruel.

"Shen Yinshuang, Pei Shouan's bastard child, how could I let you keep me around to cuckold me? You're really delusional."

"You should be thankful you're alive; that bastard child left on its own. Otherwise, you would be the one who died."

As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Yin abruptly released Shen Yinshuang.

Shen Yinshuang lowered her eyes, offering no explanation and making no attempt to struggle.

She knew that all explanations were futile and meaningless.

Xiao Yin looked at the silent Shen Yinshuang and took it as her consent.

His eyes were gloomy, and his thin lips were pursed.

The temperature in the inner room dropped sharply.

After a long while, Shen Yinshuang looked up at Xiao Yin again.

"Xiao Yin..." she called out Xiao Yin by his full name.

Xiao Yin was even more tense.

Shen Yinshuang rarely called herself by her full name like this.

A resolute betrayal five years ago.

Eventually, they were driven to the brink of desperation.

That's why she calls herself that.

Otherwise, she would call herself "A-Yin".

Even now, she still calls herself "General".

Therefore, in this form of address, Xiao Yin seemed to see Shen Yinshuang's surrender.

"Who gave you permission to call me by my name!" Xiao Yin angrily rebuked Shen Yinshuang.

Shen Yinshuang was taken aback, then calmly changed her address: "General."

This time, she didn't give Xiao Yin a chance to speak again, and finished her sentence completely.

"Please let me go. You said before that my behavior was improper and I am no longer suitable to wear wedding clothes. Give me a letter of severance, and I will definitely stay far away from the capital and never appear in front of you again for all eternity." Shen Yinshuang spoke quietly, but every word was clear.

Xiao Yin could hear the seriousness in Shen Yinshuang's words.

He could also see the despair and urgency in Shen Yinshuang's eyes.

He knew even more clearly that Song Jian was right.

He had to let Shen Yingshuang go so that she could live.

If he lets Shen Yinshuang go, who will let him go?

Xiao Yin sneered, but the cruelty in his eyes did not diminish in the slightest.

Every word is still cruel.

"Shen Yinshuang, if Lingyi likes the wedding dress you embroidered, then you must stay. If you provoke Lingyi and make her unhappy, I will make you wish you were dead."

Xiao Yin was also threatening Shen Yinshuang word by word.

Shen Yinshuang was in despair.

Xiao Yin could easily see that she was unwilling.

"What, you're still unwilling? If it weren't for Lingyi yesterday, you would have died at the hands of Prime Minister Cui long ago. In the end, Lingyi is your savior. What right do you have to be unwilling?" Xiao Yin rebuked Shen Yingshuang.

He thought Shen Yinshuang would be emotional, would cry, and would make a scene.

Just like before.

When Shen Yinshuang is unhappy, she will take it out on herself.

He would patiently coax her until Shen Yingshuang laughed out loud again.

Actually, Shen Yinshuang is not difficult to coax.

Her requirements are very low; a few sweet words are enough to make her smile.

Now, Shen Yinshuang calmly looked at Xiao Yin.

This made Xiao Yin somewhat uneasy.

On the surface, however, he remained calm and composed.

"Alright. After I finish embroidering the wedding dress for Miss Cui, can the General give me a letter of severance and let me leave?" Shen Yingshuang asked the same question again.

However, her conditions were gradually deteriorating.

This attitude thoroughly enraged Xiao Yin.

Xiao Yin lowered his voice, his face grim: "Shen Yingshuang, do you really want to leave? To run off and elope with Pei Shou'an?"

"Yes." Shen Yinshuang didn't even bother to deny it.

Since he's leaving anyway, he might as well let Xiao Yin hate him to the core.

"Dream on." Xiao Yin's words completely extinguished Shen Yinshuang's hopes.

Shen Yinshuang said it was impossible not to despair.

It seems that no matter what she chooses, she's stuck in a rut.

She stared intently at Xiao Yin: "General, please let me go, considering that I've been your mistress for the past two years and haven't caused any trouble."

"Impossible!" Xiao Yin said bluntly, "Shen Yingshuang, just thinking about your past betrayal makes it impossible for me to let you go!"

Every word was crystal clear.

Shen Yinshuang finally stopped talking.

The light in her eyes had completely disappeared.

She leaned quietly against the bed.

Then Shen Yinshuang slowly closed her eyes.

I don't know if it was from being extremely tired, or something else.

She fell asleep leaning against the bed.

Xiao Yin watched the whole thing, but never left.

His eyes held a complex expression, along with a hint of worry for Shen Yinshuang.

Several times, Xiao Yin wanted to walk towards Shen Yingshuang, but he ultimately held back.

Suddenly, Shen Yinshuang, who was in a nightmare, began to cough.

Her body, which had been leaning against the bed, went limp.

"Yinshuang!" Xiao Yin rushed forward in one stride.

He only managed to support Shen Yinshuang.

But Shen Yinshuang did not wake up.

The temperature, which had just subsided, started to rise again.

Shen Yinshuang coughed desperately in her nightmare.

He was coughing and crying at the same time.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry..." she apologized in the nightmare.

While Xiao Yin was helping Shen Yinshuang up.

Shen Yinshuang unconsciously grasped Xiao Yin's hand tightly.

It was as if they were afraid Xiao Yin would leave.

Xiao Yin's Adam's apple bobbed as he stared intently at Shen Yinshuang.

After a long silence, he asked her, "Shen Yingshuang, who have you wronged?"

He thought that as long as Shen Yinshuang admitted her mistake, that would be enough.

That's the end of it for them; they'll let bygones be bygones.

But then, Shen Yinshuang seemed to fall silent for a moment.

She began to murmur, "Shou'an, no...no..."

Pei Shou'an's name came to Xiao Yin's ears.

The next instant, Xiao Yin suddenly released Shen Yinshuang.

His face was terribly grim.

He knew exactly what Shen Yinshuang was thinking.

But he always held onto that hope.

As a result, Shen Yinshuang always manages to deliver the most fatal blow to herself.

The moment Xiao Yin let go, Shen Yinshuang collapsed onto the bed.

Her voice also stopped abruptly.
