Chapter 525: Chapter 527: Who is He?

"Does the Second Prince realize what he is saying?"

Jiang Zhou knew the Second Prince did not like her, which was why he never set foot in her courtyard, and they could be said to have no dealings with each other.

Pei Chengye did not answer, his lips tainted with the scent of alcohol tried to approach, but Jiang Zhou dodged.

"The Second Prince has had too much to drink, let me help you rest." Jiang Zhou supported Pei Chengye towards the bed and laid him down upon it.

Pei Chengye grabbed her arm, pulling her beneath him, and slurred, "This Prince is not yet drunk."

As he spoke, his hand moved towards Jiang Zhou’s clothing, groping to untie the ribbon around her waist.

Jiang Zhou forcefully pushed him away, trying to get up from atop him.

Pei Chengye flipped over and pinned Jiang Zhou down, his eyes boring into her, his voice rough and low, "Do you regret it? Regret marrying this Prince back then?"

Jiang Zhou remained silent, but Pei Chengye already knew the answer in her heart, then he burst out laughing loudly: "Good, good, since that is the case, do not blame this Prince for being ruthless."

Jiang Zhou’s face paled as she struggled to sit up, only to find Pei Chengye glaring at her with bloodshot eyes.

He had gone mad, truly mad!

"Second Prince, please calm down." Jiang Zhou did not intend to enrage him.

Pei Chengye snorted coldly, his hand moving to strangle her neck while the other tugged at her clothes.

"Mmm... Mmm..." Jiang Zhou’s eyes widened in terror as she struggled and twisted.

Pei Chengye pressed down hard on her shoulders, rendering her immobile. He then lowered his head and bit into the snowy flesh of her neck.

Enduring the pain, Jiang Zhou lightly laughed and said, "If the Second Prince feels nothing for me, why force things?"

"You are already my person, how I treat you is up to me!"

Pei Chengye’s eyes were icy and dark, the pressure in his hand intensified.

Jiang Zhou found it hard to breathe, desperately shaking her head to escape Pei Chengye’s grip, but no matter how hard she tried, it was useless. Instead, it only excited Pei Chengye more.

His hand moved across Jiang Zhou’s chest, causing quivers, but right when she was about to suffocate, Pei Chengye suddenly let go.

"Cough cough...cough cough cough..."

Jiang Zhou lay draped over the edge of the bed, coughing violently, her cheeks flushed, her chest heaving rapidly, her beautiful face paled from lack of oxygen, her hair disheveled, utterly discomposed.

Jiner ran over and knelt on the ground, "Second Prince, please quell your anger, I beg you to spare my lady."

Pei Chengye cast a sidelong glance at Jiner, the ferocious look in his eyes growing more crazed.

"Get out!"

Then trembling with fear, she remained kneeling, tears falling as she implored in a choked voice, "This servant begs the Second Prince to spare my lady."

"Hehehehe..." Pei Chengye laughed uproariously as if he had heard a good joke.

Jiang Zhou gasped for air, sitting upright, steadying her breathing, a tight feeling in her heart.

Pei Chengye restrained his smile and slowly sat up, his forefinger and thumb continuously rubbing together.

"Who is your secret lover?"

Jiang Zhou was momentarily stunned, not expecting him to ask such a question.

"If you tell this Prince the truth, I might still spare your life, otherwise..." Pei Chengye paused, his tone ominous, "your fate will be miserable."

Jiang Zhou’s body trembled slightly, panic flickering in her eyes; Pei Chengye observed her expression with a satisfied smile.

"Speak up, who is your lover among the Princes and Nobles?"

"There is no one," Jiang Zhou said decisively.

Pei Chengye’s expression instantly turned fierce, he pressed, "Do you really take this Prince for a fool?"

Jiang Zhou lowered her gaze, an unusual emotion glinting in her eyes.

"The Second Prince can dislike me, but you cannot slander me like this."

Danger flickered through Pei Chengye’s profound black pupils. He stood up, looming over Jiang Zhou from a height.

"I’ll give you one last chance. Will you speak now, or after you have been punished?"

Jiang Zhou looked up to meet Pei Chengye’s probing gaze, seeing a cruel smirk at the corner of his mouth, she clenched the silk beneath her.

"I do not understand what the Second Prince is saying," Jiang Zhou said through clenched teeth, raising her gaze.

Pei Chengye clapped his hands, "Well then, I am eager to see whether it’s your obstinacy or the torture instruments that are harder!"

He turned and walked towards the door, calling out, "Someone come."

"Second Prince." Several guards pushed the door open and knelt on one knee in unison.

Jiang Zhou’s heart shrank suddenly, her complexion drained of color, and she bit her lip fiercely, unwilling to reveal anything.

"Drag her out and apply every kind of punishment on her," Pei Chengye ordered indifferently.

Jiner rushed forward and clung to Pei Chengye, crying out, "Second Prince, no, my lady is delicate, how can she withstand those punishments!"

Pei Chengye shook off Jiner’s hand forcefully, shouting, "Get off."

Jiner dared not approach the Second Prince again, and as she tried to protect Jiang Zhou, she too was pulled away, leaving the guards to take Jiang Zhou out of the chamber.

"Second Prince, for the sake of our marriage, please spare my lady," Jiner knelt on the ground, begging bitterly.

Pei Chengye frowned slightly; there was virtually no true marriage between him and Jiang Zhou.

Moments later, the room was filled with piercing screams.

Pei Chengye stood by the window, closing his eyes to listen quietly, a sinister curve emerged on his lips.
