Chapitre 178

"Help!"

Ignoring my fuss and struggles, he shoved me into an ordinary carriage, and with Dongfang Yao in tow, sped off towards the southern lands...

Unexpectedly, he took me to the Kingdom of Nansha.

We were met by his left envoy.

In a dilapidated temple, I witnessed him transform from a dignified seven-foot-tall man into a child only a foot tall!

Horror cannot express how I felt at that moment. At that instant, I thought, I had truly encountered a demon...

Later, I learned that he wasn't a demon; he had simply gone mad from practicing his martial arts.

He wanted me to steal the sacred herb, and in exchange, he could train me to become a second her...

The second her...

Can I win my cousin's love?

I think it should be possible.

However, reason tells me I shouldn't agree, because the second "she" is still her, not me.

However, in the end, emotions overwhelmed reason, leading me to agree to this absurd deal as if possessed...

"Mistress!" Standing outside the palace gate, I coldly watched Tuoba Chen run out of the palace panting, and couldn't help but sneer inwardly.

You stole my lover, and now your lover is right in front of me. Tell me, how should I treat him?

"Xiao San, it really is you! It really is you!" Overjoyed, he grabbed me and incoherently told me about his fear and his feelings. When he got to the painful part, he pressed me tightly against his body, his arms like iron hoops holding me firmly, as if he wanted to meld me into his bones.

"My dear mistress, you've suffered so much! It's my fault for not protecting you properly. But don't worry, from now on, no one will bully you again. If anyone dares to lay a finger on you, I will tear them to pieces!"

What sweet words! But I wasn't moved in the slightest, because I knew he wasn't talking to me...

Beside the warm, misty pool, Tuoba Chen treated me like a precious treasure, gently peeling off my clothes layer by layer. His meticulous and careful manner made my chest feel tight and I had to force myself to suppress the urge to vent my anger with the whip...

"Mistress!" A shocked and angry shout echoed throughout the palace.

Her gaze swept over him, following his gaze downwards, until it reached his slightly protruding belly.

I snorted coldly, a mocking smile playing on my lips: "What, can't take it anymore?"

Noticing the change in my tone, he quickly hugged me tightly and hurriedly explained, "Xiao San, I'm sorry, that's not what I meant! I know it wasn't your choice, it's my fault, I didn't protect you properly and made you suffer. Xiao San, don't be sad, your child is my child, Tuoba Chen's child, I will treat him as my own, and I will never wrong him in the slightest..."

It's ridiculous! These men are all crazy! They take it for granted that they're raising other people's children, as if it's their right!

What methods does that woman possess to win the deep, intense love of these privileged young men...?

Despite his doubts, he still told me where the sacred herb was placed.

The moment I took the sacred herb, I accidentally triggered a mechanism in the box, and a sharp arrow pierced my left arm.

In an instant, his entire left arm turned completely black.

It's poisonous! Hmph, but this kind of poison can't stop me.

He took out an antidote pill from his sleeve, swallowed it, glanced at his left arm, and saw the blackness gradually fading. He hugged the sacred herb tightly and took a step to leave.

"Tell me, are you still a mistress?"

The sudden sound behind me startled me.

I quickly turned my head and was surprised to find that Tuoba Chen was standing quietly a few feet behind me. He must have seen everything I had just done.

“I need it.”

"Don't beat around the bush, answer my question."

"What do you think, Chen? If I'm not a mistress, then tell me, who am I?" Her tone was absolutely precise.

The ice is gradually melting.

He stepped forward and hugged me, resting his head on my shoulder, and complained, "Xiao San, what troubles you have? Why didn't you tell me? Why did you hide it from me? Don't you trust me?"

"That's because I know you won't give me the Immortal Herb."

"Mistress, do you even know that the Sacred Immortal Herb is used to prolong Yu Yan's child's life? Mistress, what is the reason that you absolutely need this Sacred Immortal Herb?"

Why? For my happiness...

When a dagger pierced his body, his eyes widened in utter disbelief.

"Why?" He gripped my hand holding the dagger tightly, staring in shock into the depths of my eyes, where the pain of being betrayed by his lover was undisguisedly revealed in his normally radiant eyes.

She glanced away, instinctively avoiding his piercing gaze, refusing to look at the beautiful contact lenses that held her sorrow.

"Why?"

A strange smile flickered across his lips: "Why do you think that is?"

My wrist stung, and I turned my head to look at him quietly.

"Tell me, is my mole on the left or right side of my chest?"

Boring. I pouted, not wanting to answer the question, but to my surprise, he wouldn't give up, gripping my hand even tighter.

I'm afraid that if I don't explain myself, this hand will be ruined.
