Chapter 290 Is it really her explanation that he wants?
In the dimly lit inner hall, a figure in aqua stood before the moonlit window. The cool moonlight cast a shadow over her, making her appear both gentle and resolute. The two contrasting qualities emanated from her simultaneously, yet surprisingly, they didn't seem out of place.
Baili Moqing looked at the back, but he couldn't imagine it matching the plump figure in his memory.
They are clearly two different people...
A suffocating feeling permeated the air beneath the silence. An inexplicable emotion tugged intensely between the two of them, even though they were not very close.
"Aren't you going to explain?"
The indifferent voice was even colder than the first time he heard it, revealing an extreme lack of emotion.
"I'm waiting for you to ask."
He asked, and she answered.
After all, he was indeed the victim in that incident, and the packet of powder he brought with him was the culprit behind the conspiracy against him.
He hated her, and she could understand.
Shu He turned sideways, half of his face hidden in the shadows, the other half facing the window. Baili Moqing only saw a soft curve with a very clear turning point in his profile.
"Are you really the same person as before?"
Shu He looked at him. He was completely hidden in the darkness, making it difficult to see his expression. But the cold and suppressed voice was enough for her to understand that he was filled with hatred at the moment.
She lowered her eyes, "Yes."
As the voice fell, a cold wind blew over at a high speed, and Shu He felt like he was hit by a huge rock and crashed directly into the wall behind him.
There was a cold and sharp pain in her throat at the same time, and the powerful and ruthless pressure made it impossible for her to breathe.
A pair of eyes filled with darkness and devouring power suddenly appeared before her eyes, as if an evil ghost from the endless hell was baring its fangs and claws at her; or like a black hole in the boundless universe that could swallow all the stars, sweeping over her whole body with endless strangling power.
She had never experienced such terrible pressure before and felt that she would be shattered into pieces in the next second.
"how dare you?!"
"How dare you?!!"
Each suppressed roar seemed to contain endless pain and suffering.
"You actually hid your identity and treated me like a fool for so long!!"
Looking at the woman who was almost suffocating, a trace of struggle flashed in his eyes, and finally he threw the woman in his hand away.
If she wasn't Yi'er's mother, he would definitely kill her!
absolute! !
Shu He fell heavily to the ground. The pain in her throat made her cough uncontrollably. Only by coughing violently could she relieve the pressure and irritation on her throat muscles.
This was the method she used to deal with Zhu Zifeng and Nangong Xiyun tonight. Unexpectedly, she also experienced it once.
She couldn't help but smile bitterly. Is this what karma means?
Looking at the miserable appearance of the woman on the ground, his eyes hidden in the darkness flickered, and a trace of pity flashed across his eyes.
This was the first time he saw her so submissive.
Wasn't she very arrogant? Why didn't she resist or explain now?
Even if she said one thing, she had never tricked him...
Although her throat still hurt, she no longer coughed. She stood up again, but remained silent.
In the darkness, the two people faced each other, but one of them dared not look into the other's eyes.
What should she say? What would he believe?
That she had never fooled him?
She herself doesn't believe this!
After all, she had indeed been hiding her identity and staying with him for so long.
In this situation, anyone would probably think that someone was approaching them with ulterior motives, right?
When she remained silent, his voice rose again, hiding a struggle that even he himself was unaware of.
"So, all of this was your plan?"
"Four years later, you brought the child back to me. Was it to give the child a legitimate status? Or, are you attracted to the identity of Princess Dongli?"
"So you rejected the Zhang family and Beiji, not because they weren't good enough, but because their status wasn't high enough for you to look down on!"
"Yes or no?!"
The man's anger gushed out, but compared to his indifference, his words made her feel even more chilling.
"You, is this how you see me?"
Even though she was mentally prepared, she still couldn't control the discomfort and felt like she couldn't breathe when she heard such words from his mouth.
Although they had just met again, they had experienced a lot together. It turned out that he really thought of her this way.
At this moment, she was glad that she had not said anything to defend herself, otherwise, wouldn't it be considered a sophistry in his eyes?
"Shouldn't I think so? Then tell me, what should I think?"
"Is it just a coincidence that I want you to meet me again? Is it just because you want you to stay by my side that you are forced to do so by circumstances, not because you want to? Or is it just an accident that you and Yi'er appeared in my life?"
"If one thing is a coincidence, then are all things coincidences?!"
"He Shu, do you really think everyone is a fool? How can there be so many coincidences in this world?"
His doubts, suspicions, and definitions made Shu He feel stiff all over.
He clearly knew everything, yet he used the facts as a weapon to attack her, leaving her with no way out...
Is this really her explanation that he wants?
No!
"Yes! I planned everything."
A cold and distant voice rang out, causing Baili Moqing to shudder and his eyes to flash with disbelief.
"I knew you would appear in Yuancheng, so I deliberately brought Yi'er to find you."
"I knew you lived in the eastern suburbs beforehand, so I deliberately approached the Zhang family just to live next door to you."
"I even specially prepared bandits just to formally meet you and leave you with a special first impression..."
"Later, I deliberately revealed my ability to make medicinal food, just to make Nanqi stay and let me take care of you."
"I even taught Yi'er to intentionally approach you and please you, just so that one day you'd feel reluctant to part with her and soften your heart towards us when our identities were exposed..."
"Baili Moqing, you're right. From the very beginning, you've been the target of my calculations. Everything you've experienced, seen, and heard was deliberately designed by me to achieve my goal!"
"you shut up!!"
"boom!"
With an angry roar, the rosewood desk shattered into pieces, knocking down the windows and door of the main hall.
Several people in the yard subconsciously went to pick up the broken wood to avoid causing greater damage to the yard.
Only after the few men returned to the yard covered in wood chips did the violent atmosphere gradually disappear.
Nanqi threw all the wood in his hand to the ground, and the anxiety in his eyes almost burst out.
"Your Majesty, please don't believe this!"
It's all just words spoken in anger, it's all just words spoken in anger!
How could she have such great abilities by herself?
Zhang Zhirou was also attracted by the quarrel and stood in the yard, her pretty face full of fear.
"Sister He..." Sister He won't be hurt, right?
There was even more pain in Beiji's eyes. He subconsciously wanted to go in, but Zhenli made a move and stopped him in place.
"This is a matter between them. If outsiders interfere, it will only make things worse!"
"outsider……"
He bit the two words, and his heart ached.
Yes, he is just an outsider...
