1502 You Should Be Lucky That You’re a Stove
Duanmu Chun chuckled and put down the teacup in his hand. He raised Cheng Su’er’s chin. “Beauty, I’m even happy that you’re worried about me. However, don’t worry, beauty. I can’t bear to see you in danger with me.”
Hearing that, Cheng Su’er’s eyes flickered slightly. “Your Highness, I heard that Dujin City, which is closest to Zhuang Prefectural City, is about to fall. If we don’t send reinforcements soon, I’m afraid we won’t be able to hold on for long.”
Duanmu Chun’s expression didn’t change, but his voice became even gentler. “Beauty, who do you think I should send to support them?”
Cheng Su’er was delighted, but in order not to be seen through by Duanmu Chun, she tried her best to suppress it.
“I think we can send someone from the Lu family. After all, the Lu family is the number one family in Zhuang Prefectural City. They still have a foundation. Of course, it still depends on Your Highness who you send in the end. Your Highness is wise and divine. You must already have a plan in your mind.”
The last sentence was obviously to flatter Duanmu Chun.
“Beauty sure knows how to talk.”
Duanmu Chun’s originally gentle expression suddenly became cold, and he pinched Cheng Su’er’s chin hard with his fingers.
“Ah!”
The sharp pain in her chin that was about to be crushed made Cheng Su’er cry out in pain.
Her face with exquisite and heavy makeup was full of pain.
“Your… Your Highness?”
Cheng Su’er’s eyes were pitiful and tears welled up in her eyes, making her appear pitiful.
However, Duanmu Chun didn’t pity her at all. He pinched her chin even harder.
This time, Cheng Su’er really cried bitterly. “Your Highness, please spare me. I know I was wrong.”
“Recognize your mistake? What did you do wrong?”
Duanmu Chun didn’t let go just like that. He looked at Cheng Su’er with an extremely cold gaze.
Sensing Duanmu Chun’s hostility towards her, Cheng Su’er’s delicate body couldn’t help trembling slightly.
“I… I shouldn’t have tried to influence Your Highness’s decision. I know I was wrong. Please let me go this time.”
Thinking of the women who angered Duanmu Chun in the past and were dealt with mercilessly, Cheng Su’er trembled even more violently.
Sensing Cheng Su’er’s fear, Duanmu Chun snorted coldly and threw her to the ground without any tenderness.
Cheng Su’er quickly got up and knelt at Duanmu Chun’s feet without dignity. She cried and begged, “I know I was wrong. Please forgive me this time, Your Highness. I won’t dare to do it again.”
“Raise your head,” Duanmu Chun suddenly said.
Cheng Su’er didn’t dare to disobey. She quickly looked up with an obviously nervous expression. “Your… Your Highness?”
Duanmu Chun bent down and pinched both of her cheeks, his tone full of warning. “I know what your relationship is with the Lu family, and I also allow you to make things difficult for the Lu family willfully. But you have to remember that what I do isn’t up to a plaything like you to decide.”
Hearing Duanmu Chun say that he knew about her relationship with the Lu family, Cheng Su’er’s pupils suddenly constricted.
However, Duanmu Chun wasn’t as furious as she expected. Instead, he was just warning her.
“You should be glad that you’re my furnace. Otherwise, I could have destroyed you when you raised your thoughts just now! From now on, be your furnace obediently, understand?” As he spoke, Duanmu Chun patted Cheng Su’er’s face a few times, warning her.
“Yes, yes, thank you, Your Highness. I definitely won’t do it again.” Cheng Su’er suppressed the fear and humiliation in her heart and lowered her head to apologize to Duanmu Chun.
“Don’t worry, as long as you’re obedient, I’ll still allow you to vent your anger.”
Duanmu Chun hit Cheng Su’er and gave her a sweet date appropriately. Then, without caring about Cheng Su’er’s reaction, he got up and left.
