Chapter 179 - 179 A Woman's Heart Is the Most Vicious!
179 A Woman’s Heart Is the Most Vicious!
“I left you a letter.” Lu Ze stared at Lin Suisui, who was complaining self-righteously. He pointed out the biggest loophole in her complaint.
He had left the letter in the bag beside her in advance. As long as she opened the bag, she would definitely be able to see it!
“I didn’t see it!” Lin Suisui didn’t feel guilty at all as she met Lu Ze’s gaze and retorted firmly, “It was so dark in the cave. How could I have seen any letters in the bag?!
After I left the cave, I panicked and ran for my life. How could I have the chance to notice that?!”
Lin Suisui denied it quickly. Anyway, the matter was over now. As long as she didn’t admit it, it wasn’t like Lu Ze could grab Little White and ask for the truth!
“It’s all my fault.” Lu Ze apologized sincerely and nodded without quibbling. “No matter what happens next time, I won’t abandon you again!”
“In that case, I’ll forgive you this time.” Seeing that Lu Ze had given in, Lin Suisui stopped and simply said that this matter was resolved.
“I thought you were still angry with me and wouldn’t forgive me so easily.”
After Lu Ze heard Lin Suisui’s words, he smiled and continued to say calmly.
“Why would you think that?!” Lin Suisui looked at Lu Ze in confusion.
She actually knew that Lu Ze had left her in the cave for her safety. If she were like other women, she definitely would have followed Lu Ze’s arrangements and stayed in the cave to wait for the Fang family to pick her up. Then, they would have gone to the refugee camp to wait for his return.
But she wasn’t like other women!
Therefore, although she was a little sad, she wasn’t angry with him!
Naturally, there was no need to talk about forgiveness!
“King Gu Han said that you’ve already promised him that you’ll be his consort.” Lu Ze lowered his head and lamented, “Pei Qian said that you think he’s more interesting and romantic. At least, he’s more to your liking than me, who is dull and boring.”
Lin Suisui stared at Lu Ze in a daze. She didn’t expect this to come back and bite her!
“That was an emergency situation!” Lin Suisui hesitated for a long time before stammering and explaining, “If I didn’t say that, how could I have tricked King Gu Han and bought more time?!
Since you heard about what I said at that time, you should also know how useless Pei Qian was at that time!
He just stood at the side and let me say everything!
I felt guilty that he was discovered by those northern barbarians because I placed the horse at the entrance of the Mountain God Temple. Moreover, he was injured at that time, but still wanted me to escape first. I couldn’t just abandon him, because he might get killed by King Gu Han!”
“Then why don’t you tell me how King Gu Han discovered me?!”
Pei Qian’s accusation came from outside the carriage. Although his tone sounded gentle and calm, the resentment in his words was obvious.
“You sold me out for your husband!” Pei Qian sighed. Before Lin Suisui could speak, he continued to complain, “What could I do? What could I say?! Of course, I could only agree with whatever you said!
“Madam Liu, you’ve turned the situation around, but in the end, you pushed all the blame to me. Do I look like a fool?!”
“How was it for my husband’s sake? Wasn’t it to help you hide the evidence?!
“Besides, there were more than two or three people on my husband’s side. You were the only one there. I definitely have to sacrifice myself to protect the family! This way, my husband would still have a chance to plan a rescue and rescue us. But if I had brought King Gu Han and the others to my husband’s place at that time, how would he have been able to save us?!”
Lin Suisui didn’t expect Pei Qian to arrive at this time.
Fortunately, she reacted quickly and quickly found a reason to refute him. “It’s fine if you don’t appreciate it, but you’re even blaming me. How outrageous!”
“Then I really have to thank you, Madam Liu!”
Pei Qian was silent outside the carriage for a long time before thanking her through gritted teeth.
“You’re welcome!” Lin Suisui didn’t stand on ceremony at all and accepted Pei Qian’s thanks. Pei Qian couldn’t help but cough heavily outside the door. If not for the fact that there were others around, Pei Qian would probably have discussed what the highest level of gratitude was with Lin Suisui!
“What about King Gu Han? Why did he say that you wanted to marry him?!”
Lu Ze’s train of thought wasn’t so easily led astray by Lin Suisui. He still stared at Lin Suisui quietly, and there was even a hint of resentment in his tone.
“That was just his imagination! He said that he wanted me to be his consort. I said that he had to return to the Imperial Court successfully first, then he said that I had promised him that I would marry him when we reached the Imperial Court!
How is that possible? If I had really wanted to marry him, why would I have stabbed him in the end?!”
At this point, Lin Suisui couldn’t help but feel pained.
Lu Ze had given her that short blade and it had been quite useful along the way! Then, it was stabbed into King Gu Han…
She wondered if there would be a chance to get it back!
“Tsk, maybe you wanted to kill him to silence him!” Before Lu Ze could speak, Pei Qian lamented, “In that case, I pity King Gu Han!
You took advantage of his feelings and he almost lost his life!
Women are really the most vicious people in this world!”
“I, I, I have a headache…” Lin Suisui was furious. Now that things had come to this, she felt exasperated!
“Mr. Pei, this is a private matter between me and my wife. It’s not appropriate for you to stay here and eavesdrop!” When he saw Lin Suisui raise her hand to cover her head, Lu Ze’s expression changed drastically. As he went forward to check on Lin Suisui’s condition, he criticized Pei Qian unhappily, “My wife is not feeling well now. If you have anything to ask, you should wait for her to recover before coming over!”
“Lu Ze, you actually believe everything she says! She was rebuking me moments ago, but now, she has a headache?!” Pei Qian was really enraged. He didn’t expect Lu Ze to become so obtuse one day!
“It’s because you made her angry.” Lu Ze reached out and gently massaged Lin Suisui’s temples to ease her pain as he calmly replied to Pei Qian, who was slapping the carriage, “As the saying goes, people shouldn’t expose other people’s shortcomings. As a man, why are you so mean and petty?! My wife offended you for the sake of the overall situation. Is there a need for you to be so calculative?!”
