Yan Yuhe knew the cause and effect a long time ago, but he still held on to a glimmer of hope, hoping that all this was not true. But at this moment, he heard Li Wanji's admission with his own ears, and his hope was instantly shattered.

A trace of sadness emerged on his gloomy face, and a self-deprecating smile spread across the corners of his lips.

"Why?" he asked again. Even though he adjusted his breathing to hide his heartache, his trembling nasal voice still betrayed him.

Li Wanji was puzzled. She had done everything so perfectly, so why did he still find out?

Even though she was unwilling to face such a situation, Li Wanji knew that the time had come when she had to speak up.

Seeing Yan Yuhe's hurt expression, her heart ached. She knew that she owed him an explanation, a reasonable explanation.

She took a deep breath, trying to calm herself down, and slowly said, "Yuhe, I...I have my own difficulties."

Yan Yuhe sneered and interrupted her: "Difficulties? What kind of difficulties made you have an affair with Yan Yuheng behind my back?"

Look! He didn't even want to call me brother, and even used such a vulgar word as "having an affair", which shows his anger and disappointment.

She felt bitter in her heart, but she couldn't refute it and could only endure his criticism silently.

"Yuhe, I..." She tried to speak again, but found that she couldn't even utter a complete sentence.

Yan Yuhe looked at her hesitant look and his anger grew even stronger.

He hugged Li Wanji from behind. His action should have been gentle and affectionate, but at this moment it was full of determination and cruelty.

He held her waist tightly, as if he wanted to merge her into his bones and blood, or as if he wanted to crush her alive.

"Wanji, the border issue has already made me exhausted. I haven't been with you for many days, so you can't stand the loneliness?"

Yan Yuhe's cold lips pressed against her earlobe, and he spoke each word with despair. His voice seemed to be squeezed out from between his teeth, carrying a bone-chilling chill.

"Or, from the beginning, you didn't treat me sincerely, and you approached me just to use me?"

Li Wanji was fingered by him so hard that it hurt, but she didn't dare to struggle and could only let him hold her.

She didn't dare to anger him again, so she could only try to stay calm and whispered, "Yuhe, listen to my explanation. Things are not what you think."

Yan Yuhe simply wouldn't listen to any of her explanations. He suddenly let go of her hand and pushed Li Wanji down on the couch.

He looked down at her, narrowed his eyes slightly, and gently stroked Li Wanji's cheek with his fingers. The movement seemed gentle, but it revealed a heart-pounding ruthlessness.

"Oh, is it because of your charming appearance that you can manipulate all men?"

Yan Yuhe sneered, he leaned down, and slightly opened his thin lips, as if he was going to kiss Li Wanji's lips, but when he was about to touch them, he suddenly turned away and bit her neck instead.

Li Wanji screamed in pain and tried to struggle, but was held down by Yan Yuhe.

She felt a tingling sensation in her neck, followed by a hot, wet liquid running down her skin.

She knew, that was her blood!

Yan Yuhe bit her as if to vent his anger, as if he wanted to eat her alive.

Li Wanji was in so much pain that she almost cried out. She could only bite her lower lip tightly to prevent herself from making any sound.

After an unknown amount of time, Yan Yuhe finally let her go.

He sat up, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth indifferently, without even looking at Li Wanji, and his voice was as cold as if it came from the nine netherworlds.

"Wan Ji, you are really capable! You can make a selfish person like Yan Yuheng transfer such a large amount of pure spiritual power into your body!"

There was dead silence in the bedroom.

Li Wanji was lying on the couch, her clothes disheveled. The blood that had seeped from her neck had dried up, leaving a shocking bruise.

She stared at the ceiling with empty eyes, as if her soul had left her body.

Yan Yuhe stood in front of the window, his back lonely and resolute. His hands were clenched into fists, veins bulging, as if he was trying his best to suppress the anger and pain in his heart.

"Yuhe..." Li Wanji finally regained a little strength. She called Yan Yuhe's name softly, her voice trembling and sad.

"Tell me, when did you decide to attack him?"

Yan Yuhe did not turn around. His voice was cold and ruthless, as if he was asking about something that had nothing to do with him.

Li Wanji only felt that the man in front of her was extremely unfamiliar, as if all the warmth between them in the past was just an illusion.

From Yan Yuhe's perspective, Li Wanji knew that his out-of-control emotions at the moment were understandable, and that he had done his best by not wanting to kill her.

How could she dare to hope that he would be as gentle to her as before?

But Yan Yuhe is the person she must conquer in order to complete her mission of having a child, and she can't just give up like that.

Bitterness welled up in her heart. She had to win back Yan Yuhe's heart, otherwise, she would face the fate of being wiped out by the system.

Li Wanji struggled to sit up, holding tightly onto the edge of the couch with both hands, as if this would give her some strength.

She took a deep breath and said in the calmest tone possible: "Yuhe, I never thought of hurting you. I admit that there is indeed some connection between the master and me. My relationship with him started from an accident. I..."

"Accident?" Yan Yuhe turned around, his face had returned to calm, but beneath that calmness was hiding a deeper storm.

"What kind of accident would require you to give yourself to him? Li Wanji, who do you think I am, Yan Yuhe? Can I allow you to humiliate and play with me like this?"

"Tell me, why did you betray me? Was it because he sympathized with you more than I did? Or was it because he gave you more benefits? Or was it you who seduced him?"

As Li Wanji listened to Yan Yuhe's words, each one more harsh than the last, she felt as if her heart was being pierced by countless needles at the same time, making her extremely embarrassed.

But between life and face, Li Wanji could only give up the latter.

Never mind, let him vent first. After venting, maybe he will calm down and listen to my explanation.

Li Wanji bit her lower lip and remained silent.

When Yan Yuhe saw her like this, he felt furious.

He strode up to Li Wanji, grabbed her arm and dragged her up from the couch.

"Speak! Are you dumb?"

Yan Yuhe's roar echoed in the room, his eyes were red, as if he wanted to devour Li Wanji.

Li Wanji staggered and almost fell to the ground. She looked up at Yan Yuhe, with a trace of pain in her eyes.

"Yuhe, you won't listen to my explanation. Haven't you already decided that I am a fickle person and don't know how to behave?"

Yan Yuhe looked at her clear eyes, and the anger in his heart seemed to be extinguished by a basin of cold water.

He let go of his hand, took a few steps back, leaned against the window frame and closed his eyes.

"Wanji, you know I don't mind these. The chastity of our demon women is never under the skirt, but is determined by the heart. What I really care about is your feelings for me."

There was a hint of fatigue and helplessness in Yan Yuhe's voice. He opened his eyes again and looked at Li Wanji deeply.

"But what about you? Did you approach me from the beginning just to use me?"

"Besides, since you already have him, why do you still bother to provoke me? Li Wanji, what do you want? Do you think it is enough for all the men in the world to revolve around you?"
