He later fell in love with a gentle woman with a blue-green complexion after the rain, named Lan Murou.
The twists and turns of their love and hate tormented the readers. She flipped to the ending and saw that they seemed to have gotten married, had a son, and lived a blissful life together.
Ye Luan had been confined here since she transmigrated and had no idea what point in the story it was.
As she stared blankly at Tantai Ye, Xiao Chizhan’s knife pressed against Ye Luan’s waist.
A killing intent washed over her.
Ye Luan stiffened and immediately snapped back to reality.
Holy hell.
This lunatic.
He went mad at the drop of a hat.
"What are you looking at?"
A sinister voice slowly echoed, spreading a terrifying aura throughout the room. All the midwives and maids fell to their knees.
Ye Luan’s expression sharpened, and she quickly forced a smile, gently trying to push away the knife at her waist.
However, Xiao Chizhan stood up, grabbed her hand, and slowly slid the knife he held upward, pressing it against her heart.
Ye Luan was shocked, her body stiffening.
If he applied even a little more pressure, the sharp blade would pierce her heart. She dared not make any sudden movements.
"The woman who lay beneath this king yesterday is staring blankly at another man today. Tell me, should I dig out your heart to see what it truly looks like?"
What was he even talking about?
Crazy!
Seriously crazy.
"Hahaha, Xiao Chizhan, you’re awfully jealous."
Tantai Ye laughed a few times, sitting at the table and gulping down wine. His phoenix-like eyes darted between the two, a malicious smile playing on his lips.
"Didn't you claim a couple of days ago that you'd let Miss Ye be utterly annihilated? And now, in just one day, you're so affectionate?"
You call this affection?
Ye Luan was utterly speechless at the men in this book. They were all lunatics. Were all the men around the male lead lunatics?
Especially Xiao Chizhan, he was the cream of the crop among the lunatics.
"Tantai Ye, I heard you recently acquired a pet."
"Yes, dug it up from the Tomb of the Nether. It’s quite entertaining."
Xiao Chizhan smiled.
That smile sent a chill down Ye Luan’s spine.
"Ye Luan, if you can kill Tantai Ye’s pet, I will let you see your maid today."
Who knew what kind of pet it was? It definitely wouldn't be anything good.
Ye Luan didn't want to agree. She was heavily injured and had no ancient martial arts or agility techniques. What if she died?
This lunatic probably wished for her death.
But the look in his eyes clearly told her that she had to agree, whether she wanted to or not.
She hesitated, feigning fear.
Xiao Chizhan sneered, provocatively lifting her chin and kissing her lips forcefully.
Ye Luan was stunned by his capricious behavior. Watching Tantai Ye burst into laughter, she clenched her fists.
Humiliation.
He was clearly toying with her, humiliating her.
Xiao Chizhan, you'd better have a short lifespan, or one day, I will kill you with my own hands.
"Miss Ye, there's no need to be angry. Ah Zhan is just like this. He’s never loved anyone, so he doesn't understand love."
Heh.
Is Tantai Ye trying to tell her that this crazy pervert in front of her loves her?
If he truly loved her, that would be wonderful.
She would make him lose what he loved forever.
"Look at me."
Her chin was hurting from being held. Ye Luan’s eyes turned cold. She forcefully shook him off and said directly, "Alright, if I can kill the pet you speak of, Your Highness must keep your promise."
"Hey, do you two even see me?"
Tantai Ye sat lazily, but his gaze was as arrogant as a hawk in the sky. "Xiao Chizhan, why don't you bring out your Blood Wolf for her to kill? Is my pet meant for you to trample on?"
This scoundrel! Did Ye Luan really deserve to have his pet killed just for glancing at him? So stingy!
Xiao Chizhan ignored Tantai Ye completely, grabbed Ye Luan’s chin again, as if to dislocate her bones, and spoke chillingly, "Spirited! Good! Very good!"
It hurt.
It hurt so much.
Almost reflexively, Ye Luan kicked viciously towards Xiao Chizhan’s crotch.
Xiao Chizhan immediately let go of her and retreated a few steps. Ye Luan, however, threw a punch, and the two tumbled to the ground, leaving everyone in the room stunned.
Tantai Ye watched in shock as Ye Luan punched Xiao Chizhan again and again, rubbing his eyes in disbelief.
Fearsome.
Ah Zhan had become sinister and violent ever since he ascended the throne.
He actually allowed Ye Luan to get the better of him.
He looked at the bloodthirsty and excited Xiao Chizhan, stroking his chin with a wicked smile. He seemed to have discovered something of great importance.
If Third and Fourth knew, they would be absolutely astonished.
"Do you believe I'll kill you right now?"
Her neck was choked, and a feeling of suffocation surged.
Ye Luan’s reason returned. Looking at the terrifying man beneath her, she trembled and immediately adopted a calm demeanor.
"My apologies, Your Highness, this humble maiden is afraid. I'll test my blade on Your Highness first."
Xiao Chizhan let out a cold laugh and pushed her away.
"You truly are adaptable."
Hearing his taunt, Ye Luan stood up without a word.
Xiao Chizhan hated her indifferent demeanor the most. He grabbed her chin and yanked, pulling her into his embrace.
Everyone in the main hall watched this scene, gasping in amazement.
Tantai Ye spoke, "Xiao Chizhan, I have something to discuss with you."
With so many people around, he embraced her so casually.
Ye Luan’s eyes held endless disgust, but she hid it well. She didn't push Xiao Chizhan away, allowing him to hold her while mentally dissecting him a thousand times.
She realized that this man had developed an interest in her, which was why he was tolerating her.
Ye Luan frowned, unsure how to handle the situation.
"What is it you need me for?"
His large hand was constantly caressing her waist, moving back and forth.
Tantai Ye said slowly, "Those dogs from Northern Qi have been increasing their troop numbers at the border. I need to deploy troops from Qingzhou to intercept a shipment."
Xiao Chizhan pulled Ye Luan to sit on a chair.
"The Prefect of Qingzhou has just taken office, the troops are not yet organized, and he is at odds with the Commander. It's inconvenient to deploy troops."
"Then tell me, whose troops can be deployed?"
Xiao Chizhan sipped his wine, took out a token, and tossed it to him. "Convey this king's order, and have Lin Dan lead his personal guards to Qingzhou."
"Got it."
Tantai Ye left for a moment and returned to find that the dining table was empty. He cursed a few times, and a moment later, an insidious smile appeared on his face.
He leisurely began to eat the delicacies on the table. Tsk, this guy really knew how to enjoy himself.
Unfeeling woman, wasn't he good to her?
She actually dared to sneak away while he was out fighting.
No matter!
Once caught, her feet would be cut off, and she wouldn't be able to run.
Tantai Ye waited for a full hour and grew impatient when they finally returned.
Tantai Ye’s eyes narrowed slightly as he looked at Ye Luan’s blistered mouth. It was as if he remembered something, and the corners of his lips curled into a smile.
