Chapter 1044: You Really Are Not Vicious Enough
Shen Yunya sneered sarcastically, “Why do I have to treat you fairly? I just need to be fair to myself. I am satisfied as long as I can give birth to this child and be happy.”
“Besides, Jiang Ying, you did such horrible things to Eldest Sister. Every debt has to be paid to a creditor, and every hatred has a just cause. It is time for you to pay for what you did back then. It would be better for you to clear your debts now.”
“...” Jiang Ying’s eyes widened with pain and hatred after hearing those words. He couldn’t hide his sorrow and despair anymore. In that instance, he felt as though the sky was falling and the earth was splitting open. His world was completely destroyed by her words.
Besides, everything he had done to Shen Qingdai then were orders from her. How could she blame him for that right now?
“Shen Yunya, how could you... Ah!”
Before he could even finish what he was saying, Jiang Ying felt a sharp pain on his forehead. That cold blade pierced through the skin on his forehead. She actually did cut him for real. She actually tried to skin his face for her own benefit!
Feng Tianlan frowned when she saw Jiang Ying’s face covered in blood. She said in a cold voice, “Enough.”
At the sound of her voice, Shen Yunya stopped what she was doing. She held the blade that was tainted with blood in her hand and looked at Feng Tianlan mockingly. “Why? Are you feeling sorry for him? Do you still have feelings for him? Are you feeling sorry for your old flame?”
She hadn’t expected Feng Tianlan to stop her. Could she still be harboring feelings for Jiang Ying? If that were the case, she must make full use of this fact. Without the Demon King to back her up, Feng Tianlan would be nothing.
“Xi Jin, take her back.” Feng Tianlan held Si Mobai’s hand and ignored Shen Yunya’s provocation.
Si Mobai frowned slightly. He squeezed Feng Tianlan’s hand tightly as well. He believed in Lan’er. Besides, he would only be degrading himself if he were to be jealous of the likes of Jiang Ying.
Jiang Ying raised his blood-soaked head to stare at Feng Tianlan in disbelief. Did she actually just stopped Shen Yunya from hurting him?
Xi Jin’s warm gaze turned cold immediately. “Are you letting him go just like that?”
“That’s enough. There is no meaning in doing it anymore.” Feng Tianlan’s fingers were interlocked with Si Mobai’s. She raised her head and looked at him with a broad smile. “For the sake of my happiness with Mobai, I don’t want to have so much blood on my hands.”
Letting Shen Yunya skin Jian Ying’s face really held no meaning anymore. Shen Yunya did not harbor any feelings for him and the cruelty with which she was treating him was already his greatest source of pain. The spiritual pain he felt far exceeded his physical pain by a thousand-fold.
She had done all this so that Jiang Ying could experience what it felt like to get betrayed by both his family and the person he loved most in the world. That pain was enough to make one despair the meaning of one’s own existence. It was already the greatest punishment she could ever give.
Therefore, there was no need for her to continue with the torture.
“Shen Qingdai, you really aren’t vicious enough.” Shen Yunya looked at the bloody blade in her hand as she mocked her, “If I were you, I wouldn’t just stop me from doing it. I would even do it personally.”
Feng Tianlan lowered her head and stared at her bulging tummy. “Why don’t you accumulate some virtue for your child?”
After saying that, she took Si Mobai’s hand and left.
Shen Yunya threw away the bloody blade and folded her arms to cradle her bulging tummy. She raised her head and gave Xi Jin a gentle look. “Let’s go, Crown Prince.”
Xi Jin’s glanced at the lifeless Jiang Ying with eyes full of hatred. He walked away immediately and Shen Yunya followed right behind him.
As Jiang Ying watched them leave, he felt only hatred and pain, especially at the sight of Shen Yunya’s plump healthy figure. He was full of sorrow and despair. Why did she treat him this way?
