Chapter 995: 457: Assassinate Yuwen Gai! Fang Qingyi tragedy!_2

Ye Feidie said, "Don’t pretend you don’t understand. What I mean is if I have any physical needs, I’ll come to you to fulfill them. Don’t worry, I won’t come often."

Suo Lun was taken aback for a moment. Was this woman so straightforward in her speech?

"You want to be my lover?" Suo Lun asked.

"Sort of. It’s not to that extent. At most, I’ll look for you a few times a year," Ye Feidie said, "Otherwise, do you think I can still get married? Who would dare marry a woman who betrayed her husband?"

"Fine," Suo Lun nodded.

"Three years ago, you still owed me one," Ye Feidie said.

Then, the two fell into silence.

Suddenly Suo Lun said, "Alright, stop forcing yourself to remain calm. Cry it out if you feel terrible. Betraying your own husband and father-in-law must be very distressing. Don’t pretend to be indifferent."

Although Suo Lun didn’t know Ye Feidie well, he could still see the immense complexity and pain in her heart at that moment.

Moreover, even if she was straightforward, she wouldn’t proactively express her psychological needs to Suo Lun. She still had her pride.

Her incessant talking was an outlet, an attempt to alleviate the pain in her heart, the pain of betraying her husband and father-in-law.

As Suo Lun uncovered this, Ye Feidie’s beautiful face twitched, and finally, tears slid down continuously.

She had never cried before. But now, she could no longer hold back her tears and sobbed, "I really didn’t love him at all; instead, I despised him, was fed up with him, disgusted by him. But now, my heart feels so uncomfortable!"

Suo Lun sighed, "If you ask me to spare his life, I would agree."

"No," Ye Feidie said, "I will absolutely not plead for him. I refuse to be such a hypocrite. Once something is done, it’s done thoroughly. Whether to kill him or not, that’s up to you."

After speaking, Ye Feidie wiped her tears and sat down on a chair in the study directly.

She also picked up the snacks and tea from Suo Lun’s desk and began to devour them hungrily.

Due to her indecision about whether to betray her father-in-law and husband, she had hardly eaten for nearly a day and a night.

Alas!

Such a woman like her couldn’t be subdued by a man like Yuwen Fa.

And only a prodigal like Suo Lun could truly conquer a woman with the ferocity of a leopardess.

Suo Lun could even imagine if the prodigal Suo Lun had not died, and had lost his territories, lost everything, become a destitute noble, and then married Ye Feidie.

Life would certainly be like this: Ye Feidie striving outside, rising rapidly through the ranks while the prodigal Suo Lun continues his debaucherous lifestyle.

Even if Ye Feidie had to support the prodigal Suo Lun, she would still feel happy and blessed. Because her husband would be immensely talented, extraordinarily handsome, gentle and caring, and romantic—this was the man she wanted.

In contrast, no matter how handsome and successful a man like Yuwen Fa, who was unromantic and somewhat dull, might be, Ye Feidie would not be impressed.

...

Just then, Hei Ningqi walked in and kneeled on one knee, "Duke, Yuwen Gai and his son, Viscount Ye Jin, have been captured, and the rest of the City Defense Army’s rebellious leaders have all been killed. Additionally, Fang Qingyi, the young master of Yin Zhou, was also found at the rebel assembly and I have captured him."

"Fang Qingyi was captured too?" Suo Lun said in surprise.

Hei Ningqi felt a sudden unease. Capturing Fang Qingyi was satisfying, but considering the power of Yin Zhou, the consequences might be unimaginable.

"Good job," Suo Lun slapped the table.

Hei Ningqi said, "Fang Qingyi is being very defiant, saying he wants to see His Majesty the King."

"Lock up his meridians and throw him into the sky prison," Suo Lun ordered. "Then, starve him for three days, give him only water, no food."

Hei Ningqi was startled; the regent duke was even more ruthless, but serving such a lord was truly invigorating.

"What about the four bodyguards with Fang Qingyi?" Hei Ningqi asked.

"Sever their tendons, break their limbs, and utterly disable them," Suo Lun said. "If Yin Zhou asks later, say they tried to escape from prison."

"Yes!" Hei Ningqi responded, "Yuwen Gai requests to see you."

Suo Lun asked, "Did he surrender without resistance or..."

"Yes, he surrendered," Hei Ningqi said.

"Let him in," Suo Lun ordered.

"Yes." Hei Ningqi left.

...

"Someone, take Miss Ye away for a moment," Suo Lun said.

"Yes." Suddenly, a eunuch stepped forward to escort Ye Feidie to a side hall.

After all, Ye Feidie had betrayed Yuwen Gai and his son, and Suo Lun didn’t want her to be embarrassed by meeting them.

"No, I want to see them. Let them see that it was me who betrayed them. What can they do about it?" Ye Feidie said.

Suo Lun could not help but sigh. This woman’s stubbornness was truly unparalleled.

She felt terribly distressed for betraying her own husband and father-in-law, yet she put on a facade of cold-hearted decisiveness.

Soon, father and son Yuwen Gai were brought in, their first sight was Ye Feidie.

Yuwen Gai’s eyes widened in surprise.

And Yuwen Fa, as if struck by lightning, could not believe his own eyes and said in a stunned voice, "Feidie, was it you who betrayed us?"

"Yes, it was me," Ye Feidie said.

Yuwen Fa roared, "Bitch, it was really you who betrayed us?"

"Yes, it was me," Ye Feidie said calmly.

Then, Yuwen Fa became like a madman, eyes completely bloodshot, his handsome face utterly distorted as he rushed forward furiously.
