Chai Qin’s face imdiately turned pale, and she suddenly fell to her knees: "Madam."
"Get up." Yang Ruxin’s expression suddenly turned cold.
Chai Qin was startled and looked up in surprise, only to see Gu Qingheng walking in. An indescribable feeling surged in her heart, and her eyes slightly reddened, yet she remained kneeling, unmoving.
Instead, Yang Ruxin took a step back, crossed her arms, and stood there leisurely.
"Xinxin." Gu Qingheng entered the room without glancing at Chai Qin, but instead walked to Yang Ruxin’s side, "I’ve co to help you light the fire."
Yang Ruxin raised an eyebrow slightly.
"What’s the matter? Even when I was blind, I could light a fire. Are you doubting now?" Gu Qingheng chuckled, then went over to take the fire poker, only to find it behind Chai Qin. He gestured for her to hand it over, "Pass it to ."
Chai Qin looked at Gu Qingheng with a face full of grievance: "Young master." Tears fell from her eyes.
"If you are to be punished, then go kneel in the courtyard." Gu Qingheng frowned slightly and bypassed her to take the fire poker, "So you won’t be in the way here."
Chai Qin was so shocked she forgot to cry.
Yang Ruxin laughed: "Aren’t you going to ask why?"
"Why ask so many whys?" Gu Qingheng looked at Chai Qin with a cold expression, "Since it was her own choice, whatever the master decides is her lot. You’re the master, so what you say goes."
"What if I’m malicious?"
"Then you are still the wife I love." Gu Qingheng said as he sat down and started the fire, "But should anyone dare to provoke you again, don’t get your hands dirty or upset. Just call, and I’ll be there."
"If I tell you to kill her now..." Yang Ruxin’s lips curved into a barely perceptible smile.
Chai Qin looked over in terror, but before she could react, Gu Qingheng had already seized her by the throat.
Chai Qin opened her mouth to say sothing, but no sound ca out. She could only desperately cling to Gu Qingheng’s hand, but couldn’t move it at all. She could clearly feel that he truly intended to kill her, and a sense of hopelessness flooded over her...
"Enough." Yang Ruxin’s voice suddenly rang out like a heavenly lody, "I was just joking. Could you really bear to do it, my husband?"
Gu Qingheng relaxed his grip in an instant: "To , other than you, my wife, nothing and no one else holds any value."
Cough, cough... Chai Qin began to cough violently, lying on the ground for a long ti before she finally cald down, though the fear did not dissipate.
Yang Ruxin smiled and gently touched Gu Qingheng’s face, then turned to look at Chai Qin: "Chai Qin, do you see it clearly now? Any sches anyone has are futile in front of two people who truly trust each other. In his heart, your young master has no room for anyone but ."
Chai Qin hung her head. Perhaps she had been unwilling before, but in that mont on the brink of death, she suddenly felt that her unwillingness was laughable.
"This is your last chance." Yang Ruxin walked over and looked down at her, "Think about Chai Huan’s fate, and consider Du Juan and Du Man’s future. Make your choice."
Chai Qin kowtowed, then got up and left the kitchen.
Yu Qingge and Xuxu had originally intended to co over to help, but when they reached the door, they found sothing going on inside and didn’t enter. Seeing Chai Qin co out, they couldn’t help but smile: "Chai Qin, you’re such a pretty girl, why act like such a fool?"
