Even if they are just ordinary friends, the relationship is in danger of breaking down at any time. Anyone who starts a fight may turn them against each other, not to mention the more problems they will face in the future.
Xiao Lingyue said carefully: "In your eyes, what is the identity of Princess Yi?"
Zhan Bei said coldly: "What do you think it is?"
She still wants to ask such a simple question?
"I think it may be a tool, it may be a shield, it may be someone who needs to be guarded against." Xiao Lingyue laughed and added, "But they are definitely not a couple."
No other couple is like them.
Zhan Bei Lengzhi said word by word: "Do you know what a husband and wife are?"
Xiao Lingyue said: "I don't understand, but at least I know that the most basic thing between husband and wife is trust, and any relationship is inseparable from trust."
The man almost sneered: "Are you trying to say that you have no trust in me?"
Xiao Lingyue did not answer directly.
She just said: "Isn't it the same for you?"
Zhan Beihan's fingers instantly slid down and pinched her slender neck. Without using any force, his thumb pressed dangerously on her throat bone.
This is the most vulnerable and fatal part of the human throat.
Xiao Lingyue raised her head in discomfort, barely suppressing the cough that was irritated in her throat.
Zhan Beihan said coldly: "Try saying it again?"
Xiao Lingyue held back her cough: "What I said is the truth..."
"Who wants to hear you say this!" Zhan Beihan interrupted angrily and gritted his teeth, "Sometimes I really want to strangle you to death!"
"...If your memory is not bad, you should still remember how many times you had murderous intentions towards me when you didn't know I was Xiao Lingyue, right?"
Xiao Lingyue's voice was hoarse and she said slowly, "Besides, you really took action."
Zhan Beihan pointed his fingers.
"I don't mean to accuse you." Xiao Lingyue explained: "You were suspicious of 'Shen Wan' and tried many times without success, so you wanted to kill 'her' once and for all. I can understand your approach.
After all, the safety of the capital is your responsibility. It is normal for you to be in your position and pursue your own affairs.
If I were in your position, I would make the same choice."
Zhan Beihan's tone was cold: "What do you want to say?"
Xiao Lingyue said calmly: "I am always very sensitive to murderous intentions. I can feel that you really have murderous intentions towards 'Shen Wan', but after you know that I am Xiao Lingyue,
This murderous intention is gone.
An ordinary person might think that you don't intend to kill me because you know my identity and because of your past relationship with your child.
But from what I know about you, you are not a person who easily softens your heart.
First of all, I don’t have any old feelings for you.
Secondly, even if it is for the sake of my two children, you will not kill me at most, but you will definitely not give me any freedom.
So I guess your initial idea was to put me under house arrest and deny me any chance to see my two children. You won’t let me die, but you won’t let me live a good life either.”
To put it bluntly, it means becoming a prisoner.
It’s just that you can’t live but you can’t die.
Xiao Lingyue has never forgotten that Zhan Beihan hated her, not only for the divorce letter, but also for the fact that she faked her death to escape, deceived him for five years, and played him cruelly.
With his character of retribution and blood for blood, he will definitely keep it in mind.
It just didn't show.
The anger gradually disappeared from Zhan Bei's cold and stern face, replaced by a deep and unpredictable expression.
His eyes were narrow and cold, and he said with unclear meaning: "Go on!"
"But you soon discovered that this idea doesn't work. I'm not a canary that can be locked up in the backyard, and an ordinary cage can't trap me. Instead, it will scare the snake and make me stand directly on your opposite side."
