Reborn Daughter: The Young Lady Wants to Make a Trouble
Chapter 186 The Sealed Fate
When Li Chenyang returned home and heard that Yu Zhen and Li Xueyue were the only ones on the training ground, he rushed down the corridor - he had never run so fast before.
Who on earth had abandoned them in the first place?! Training in new technology? Being with a man as shameless as Yu Zhen? As if!
Li Chenyang ran all the way along the corridor and came to the quiet and dark corridor leading to the training ground. It was like seeing the light at the end of the tunnel, except that a figure appeared in the distance.
Li Chenyang paused when he saw Yu Zhen's stiff figure, swaggering as if he was plotting to destroy Wuyi. Even from a long distance, Li Chenyang could feel the anger emanating from the commander.
The enemy’s failure is his victory, and Yu Zhen’s frustration is Li Chenyang’s happiness.
Li Chenyang almost smiled triumphantly when he saw Yu Zhen's angry look. Oh, has the great commander finally collapsed?
He paused and shook his head. No, now was not the time to focus on personal grudges. He needed to investigate the reason for Yu Zhen's angry pace. He walked as if he was going to murder the Emperor of Wuyi.
“Where are you going?” Li Chenyang immediately asked when Yu Zhen got closer to him.
Yu Zhen ignored the minister and rushed over, but was grabbed hard by Li Chenyang by the wrist.
"I asked you a question."
Yu Zhen's hands itched to grab his sword. How great it would be if he could chop this man's hand off. What gave him the right to touch him? Even the other princes of Cold Sword didn't have the courage to lay a finger on him without permission.
Yu Zhen shook his wrist and broke free from Li Chenyang's grasp.
Although he was annoyed with the angry commander, Li Chenyang still forced a smile. Well, he would go and ask Xueyue what happened.
"Where is my sister?"
Yu Zhen glared at him fiercely when he mentioned Li Xueyue. She was the first and only woman who won his heart but trampled on it. He knew he should not have come to Wuyi in the first place. What was he expecting when he resigned from the army just to meet the candidate who exonerated her?
Li Chenyang rolled his eyes. "Anyway, I'll go find her myself." He crossed his arms and added, "I'm glad I persuaded her to think about this relationship. Apparently, you have a bad temper."
Yu Zhen’s whole body was stiff. If possible, his fierce gaze would become even more cruel.
"What did you just say?" His voice was surprisingly calm, which made Li Chenyang feel a chill on his back.
This was one of the rare times when Li Chenyang feared for his life. He looked at Yu Zhen in confusion.
"Tsk, forget it. I've wasted too much time on you." Li Chenyang snorted. He just took a step forward and heard the familiar clanking sound of a sword being unsheathed. His eyes widened.
He turned around, and immediately the deadly sword was pointed at his throat.
Li Chenyang cursed himself for not having a weapon. He was not a soldier like Li Wenmin. Besides, there was no need to carry a weapon with him, especially in his own home. Besides, who allowed the commander to walk around with that sword?! Any visible weapons from the guests would be confiscated.
"Say it again." Yu Zhen was furious, his hands shaking with anger. "What did you ask Li Xueyue to do?"
Li Chenyang sneered. "Is this why you are so angry?"
Yu Zhen walked forward until Li Chenyang cautiously took a step back. Finally, the minister had nowhere to go and leaned against the wall with his throat stretched out to avoid the sword tip.
"Our parents also made the same suggestion." Li Chenyang pondered, "Unlike you, we are actually very concerned about her safety. She has something she wants to accomplish in Wuyi--"
“What are those plans?”
Li Chenyang's eyes narrowed. He bit his tongue. He had said too much. "They are none of your business—" He paused as the sword grazed his neck, a drop of blood trickling down his throat.
"What are you going to do? Kill me?" Li Chenyang laughed, not caring at all that he was only a second away from death. "Do you think the Li family will let you leave here alive?"
"I don't care." Yu Zhen smiled. "If I mean nothing to her, then your life means nothing to me."
"How pitiful." Li Chenyang laughed sarcastically again. "This is why I refuse to fall in love. Look at what you have become. I heard that you are the calmest and smartest prince in your tribe, and a sharp-minded commander. His strategy almost cost you your life." Wuyi knelt down. "
Li Chenyang scanned Yu Zhen from head to toe, and the corners of his mouth curled up in disgust. "Now you are just a naughty boy chasing girls, how pitiful."
Yu Zhen didn't care about such provocation. If he really did that, he would have lost his position in Hanjian long ago.
Before his reputation for being ruthless, there were many who laughed at him, believing that he would never be as powerful as he is today. Of course, all of these people died, but not before they had gone through the worst torture of their lives. They didn’t even get a proper burial. Their bodies were fed to pigs, and the pork was in turn fed to their remaining family members. The food was stuffed down their throats even if they didn’t want to eat it.
This cruel move made him many enemies, but also many supporters. They knew the Second Prince's strength and what he would do to deal with the rebels. Fear creates loyalty, but fear also loses loyalty.
Yu Zhen has his own way of keeping his men loyal. Some are cruel. Some are not. It depends on who they are.
"Li Xueyue will never go with you." Li Chenyang complained. "Not unless I can help."
Yu Zhen decided that he had had enough of this chattering minister. Yu Zhen drew back his sword, knowing that if he wanted to silence this man, he would have to knock him out.
"Do you think I want to hurt my sister?" Li Chenyang said suddenly, and his voice softened when he thought of Xueyue.
At this point, Yu Zhen paused. What on earth was this rude fool talking about?
"Second Prince, I want to ask you something." He said the title as if jokingly, with a political smile on his lips.
Li Chenyang leaned lazily against the wall, crossed one leg over the other, and tilted his head.
“How many women are interested in you?”
"An eye for an eye." Yu Zhen said coldly. "You want an answer? Okay, I'll give it to you."
Li Chenyang narrowed his eyes in confusion.
"In return, you have to answer my questions."
This is a reasonable suggestion, but Li Chenyang is skeptical of these questions. "If it is confidential, I won't answer."
"Your question is already personal, but I'm answering it anyway. Isn't it?"
Li Chenyang frowned. The man sounded like he was doing some shady business. "I never said you had to answer them."
Yu Zhen did not respond. He just looked down on Li Chenyang.
After a dull silence, Li Chenyang finally spoke. "The problem cannot be something that can hurt the Li family or Xueyue."
"Deal." Yu Zhen had no expression on his face. A light flashed in the corner of his eye, and he looked away slightly, trying to figure out what it was. From a distance, he saw Li Xueyue.
Yu Zhen swore that he would not look back. But he did. And then he regretted it immediately. She burst into tears. He could see it from a distance. Unbearable pain spread throughout his body. It was so painful that he felt like his soul was being torn apart. Just seeing her crying was enough to make him lose his mind.
Yu Zhen gritted his teeth and looked away from her. He couldn't bear to look at her for another second. He wanted to, but he couldn't. It would destroy his pride and self-esteem.
All she had to do was reach out to him, chase him as he chased her. All she had to do was grab his sleeve and tell him to stay. He would. For life. All she had to do was ask. But she didn't, and now their fate was sealed.
