The man looked up, his pale skin appearing even paler from excessive bleeding, his lips cracked from dehydration, and the blood almost stained his clothes a dark red.
He seemed to feel no pain, his eyes staring at Lou Si with a sinister gaze, as if he were a snake ready to attack at any moment.
"Lou Si, you worthless woman. I must kill you."
If he had known that the Western Liang parliament would fall into her hands, he would have killed her without hesitation when she arrived in Western Liang for a marriage alliance.
"Kill me?" Lou Si laughed lightly and moved forward to grip his chin: "It seems that the lesson I've given my husband over the past half month isn't enough."
Chǔ Yǔ struggled as hard as he could, but even though he exerted all his strength, he could only make the sound of the metal chain clanging on his body.
"Lou Si, you will die a miserable death." His voice was hoarse, carrying a hint of savagery.
Lou Si paid no heed; she fixated on him with a look of adoration: "Chu Yu, I really hate you, and I wish to cut you into a thousand pieces and scatter your bones to the wind. But it's also true that I love you and can't live without you."
"So, you will never be able to leave me in this lifetime, even if it means staying as a mummy by my side after death."
She smiled at Chu Yu with such tenderness, as if to say, look, even though you once hurt me and tormented me so much, I still love you.
Actually, she can't really say she loves Chu Yu either; she just wants him to submit to her like a dog.
Chu Yu turned his head to avoid her touch, disgusted: "One day, I will definitely kill you!"
"Pity, you have no chance." Lou Si caressed his chin: "I know you don't want to stay with me. Before coming here, I had already thought of a way to make you stay with me."
With that, she snapped her fingers, and several bodyguards stepped forward. In a low voice, she commanded, "Break his legs for me, but make sure not to injure his face."
"Yes." The several bodyguards answered in unison and walked towards Chu Yu.
Chu Yu cursed her, possibly because he had once been the Crown Prince of Western Liang, who was not accustomed to the vulgar words of ordinary people. Therefore, whatever he cursed were just those few meaningless words that hurt no one.
Lou Si suddenly remembered something, turned her head, and looked at Chu Wei with a half-smile, half-frown: "Aren't you going to beg for clemency for your royal brother?"
Chu Wei heard her words and walked in front of her, bowing one knee and wiping the blood on her shoes with his sleeve.
"All of these are what he deserves."
"If I could, I would rather you killed him, then you would belong to me alone."
Lou Si was stunned for a moment, then she smiled, bowing down and lifting his chin, placing a soft kiss on his eyelid, her voice gentle to the bone.
"I also love you, can't live without you."
Love is such an ethereal thing; if he wants to hear it, she would say it for him.
Chu Wei straightened up and tried to kiss her, but Lou Si released him at that moment and walked towards Chu Yu.
She well knew that what is not obtained is the best, how could she let Chu Wei get his way every time.
Chu Wei licking his lips, said nothing, and got up to follow her.
Lou Si looked down at Chu Yu, who was gasping for breath, and then stepped on his twisted and deformed leg.
"Aaah! Lou Si, you will die a miserable death!" Chu Yu looked at her with bloodshot eyes and felt a sharp pain in his bones that had been pierced by iron hooks.
Lou Si's lips curled slightly, and she bent down to lift his chin, meeting his gaze filled with murder. In a soft voice, she said, "You can rest assured that people like us won't end well. So, Chu Yu, let's go to hell together."
As she spoke, she leaned down to kiss Chu Yu's lips, just like when he publicly humiliated her and kissed her for the first time upon arriving in Western Liang.
More like a humiliation than a kiss.
It's like you're raising a disobedient wolf dog, beating it half to death, then patting its head and giving it a bone.
In this way, even if you untie the rope around its neck, it wouldn't leave.
It wouldn't just not leave; it would wag its tail whenever it sees you.
Chu Yu failed to raise a dog, but Lou Si would not fail.
Because she is more ruthless, more heartless, and knows how to break people's hearts.
After all, she owes thanks to Chu Yu for teaching her all these things.
And Lou Si is a good student, easily capable of drawing conclusions and extending the lesson.
By the side, Chu Wei saw this scene and his fists tightened. In the end, he couldn't resist going forward to pull Lou Si away.
"Don't let him dirty you."
Lou Si didn't get angry at all; she leaned against him and playfully watched Chu Yu.
Chu Yu's attention was fully on Lou Si; he didn't notice Chu Wei. Now, hearing his voice, he struggled violently as if mad.
"Chu Wei, you didn't die. Why don't you kill her to avenge your father?"
"Aaah! Kill her for me, kill her for me!"
Chu Wei ignored it and carefully wiped the blood on her fingers with a handkerchief.
Chu Yu saw this scene and the veins on his forehead and neck bulged. He roared, "Chu Wei, as a prince of Western Liang, you are serving as a concubine to her!"
"My affairs are none of your business," Chu Wei didn't even lift an eyebrow, continuing to wipe her hands.
"Chu Wei!" Chu Yu, if he weren't paralyzed, would definitely kill him with his own hands.
Lou Si loved to see Chu Yu in this state the most. She held Chu Wei's hand and intertwined their fingers, walking towards Chu Yu with a smile of extreme sweetness.
"Husband, speaking of which, you should be grateful to A Wei. It was he who took the most meticulous care of me during our separation."
She emphasized the four characters "unyielding care" deliberately, as if afraid he wouldn't be able to hear her clearly.
Chu Yu didn't know if it was the touch of their intertwined fingers that stunned him, or her words that shocked him.
His chest heaved rapidly, as if the fury were about to erupt from within him. His eyes shone like two fireballs on the verge of explosion.
"Lou Si, do you still know what shame is? You are my woman; even if I die, you are Chu Yu's woman. How dare you indulge with him! How dare you! How dare you!!"
"Yes, I am your woman." Lou Si let go of Chu Wei's hand and walked forward to step on his broken leg and crush it.
"When you tortured me in public, humiliated me, and treated me as a court dancer for others to play with, why didn't you think of me as your woman?"
"Aaah!"
The intense pain nearly made Chu Yu pass out. He glared at Lou Si with his eyes wide open: "Chu Wei used to dishonor you as well. Why don't you torture him? Could it be that you have fallen in love with him?"
"Hahahaha, Lou Si, you truly are shameless, to fall in love with someone who has humiliated you. Hahahaha, you are truly pitiful, a laughingstock."
Chu Wei's face turned pale, and he was sweating profusely. He looked at Lou Si with a worried expression.
Lou Si knew he was trying to provoke her, but instead of being angry, she laughed and said, "Chu Yu, put aside your schemes. I won't let you die so easily."
Chu Yu's face flushed with embarrassment, and he roared, "Lou Si, you are truly shameless to the core, you..."
Before he could finish speaking, a loud "pap" echoed. Lou Si raised her hand and slapped him hard on the face.
Before he could react, Lou Si pulled his hair and violently banged his head against the ground several times.
After a series of "thuds," Lou Si held his hair and forced him to look up at her.
"Don't try to bite your tongue and die; it won't kill you. After all, I didn't die when I bit my hand tendon, so just live a good life. When I get bored with it someday, maybe I'll give you a quick death."
Chu Yu was now covered in blood, like a vengeful spirit that had risen from the dead.
"Lou Si, I really regret not killing you back then."
Lou Si patted his face and smiled: "Unfortunately, there's no regret pill in this world."
She released her grip, and Chu Yu was thrown to the ground like a dead dog.
"Chu Yu, in just three months, you will be crawling on the ground, begging me to look at you again."
With that, Lou Si paid no heed to his gut-wrenching curses and left the dungeon with Chu Wei and several personal servants.
