Our Binding Love: My Gentle Tyrant

Chapter 41 – Between Life and Death (2)

“Stop!”

When Ye Mu heard Ye Li’s voice, her body unconsciously trembled. And in the next second, her vision dimmed. A refreshing smell that carried a medicinal scent surrounded her.

It was Mo Linyuan who stood in front of her, blocking the stick that she was about to be killed with.

With a muffled cry, Mo Linyuan was ruthlessly hit as he knelt on one knee, shielding her bleeding frame. His hands were carefully wrapped around Ye Mu’s head.

“Don’t be afraid anymore…I’ve come back.”

Only Ye Mu could hear Mo Linyuan’s low voice. The moment she heard this, she, who didn’t like to cry or rely on others, suddenly felt a stinging pain in her eyes, her nose turning stuffy…

Her eyes were bloodshot as she stared at Mo Linyuan with an indescribable gaze. It was as if she could see into the deepest depths of his soul. Formerly, Ye Mu had always had a heavy heart towards transmigrating to this place, especially being tied up with him. But now…

“I’m glad you’re here.” After saying this, she closed her eyes as the trace of a smile appeared at the corners of her mouth.

Now, she was thankful that she was able to encounter and resolve these difficulties with him together.

Mo Linyuan was caught off guard by her gaze and he stared deeply into her slowly closing eyes. Then, he heard her whispered words, her voice which seemed to be on the verge of dissipating into air.

“…” When Ye Li saw Ye Mu’s miserable state, he couldn’t contain his explosive anger!

“Bastard! Who gave you permission to do that!?”

The moment Ye Li got angry, everyone in the courtyard knelt on the ground like a quail. Wen Ru was even more surprised! Wasn’t the general currently at the banquet hall entertaining esteemed guests? Normally, these kinds of banquets would last throughout the night!

“Wen Ru!” Ye Li’s voice reverberated, and Wen Ru’s body further shook in fear.

Ye Li’s eyes looked as if it was about to drill a hole in the weak girl kneeling at his feet, “When you originally killed Xiaosu, I secretly let you off the hook. And now, you want to include this child—do you think you can fool me? You don’t believe that I can make you scram from your position as the head wife right now?!”

“Husband!” Wen Ru wailed. Ye Li’s words had instantly caused her face to turn deathly white. “Husband, please calm down! Husband, calm down! Thi-this concubine has a reason for doing this!”

“Oh?” Ye Li’s tall frame bowed over her quivering body on the floor as he stared at her, “Then enlighten me, for what reason are you doing this for?”

As Wen Ru racked her brains for a plausible explanation, she suddenly had a devious idea!

“It’s all because Mu’er tried to steal! She wanted to steal the Eastern pearl that this concubine had displayed on her makeup table! This concubine had caught her in the act and this child refuses to admit it! This concubine was angered to the point of…this concubine only wants to teach her a lesson!”

“Eastern pearl…” Ye Li’s gaze was unclear, but Wen Ru grabbed his leg and said, “Yes! The Eastern pearl, which is the biggest pearl in the world, unparalleled in its beauty!”

But Ye Li merely laughed. When he was done, he suddenly kicked Wen Ru away!

Ye Mu didn’t even bat an eye when she handed over the treasure from the ancestors, so how could she possibly be interested in her Eastern Pearl? How ridiculous, he thought.

Wen Ru was kicked upside down, her body propelling backward. If she wasn’t supported by her servant girls at the back, her face would have smashed the ground painfully; she didn’t expect that her lie would be exposed so easily. After being kicked, she could only look from the ground at Ye Li in astonishment.

Ye Li couldn’t explain the reason for his actions, therefore he merely gave her an icy look and sneered.

“Wen Ru, you better remember this: all the people who have schemed in front of me are already buried in the earth! If you don’t want to be the next one…you better behave, be meek like you were in the past!”

Sparing her one last glance, he then shouted to the people beside him, “Take the Seventh young miss and depart!”
