CHAPTER 572: CHAPTER 185: RESCUE TO PREVENT FUTURE TROUBLES

Xie Ruotong observed Qin Shuyang and the people around him without changing her expression.

Accompanied by several house servants, the visitors clearly had ill intentions.

"Young Master Qin also likes this kind of temple fair event?" Xie Ruotong appeared calm and composed.

Her eyes, however, kept scanning the surrounding environment.

To avoid Fei Cui, and to leave by avoiding the crowd, there weren’t many people around her current location, but given the size of the temple fair, any cry for help would definitely attract a lot of attention.

If she were to scream indecent assault...

It would certainly cause a big scene.

And would lead to unnecessary trouble.

After all.

Whether it was her fault or not.

Being entangled with a man, no matter the reason, she would be considered unpure.

The Song Family would not accept such a thing.

She had just managed to somewhat please Ming Yufang.

And did not wish to ruin all her efforts.

But if it comes to a fight...

Xie Ruotong secretly exerted her Inner Strength.

At this moment.

She was basically already unable to use it.

If it wasn’t for her own perseverance.

She would probably.

Have collapsed already.

The objects before her eyes were already beginning to blur.

"I don’t like it." Qin Shuyang answered, with a gaze at Xie Ruotong that was frank and direct, "I came here specifically because you are here."

Xie Ruotong bit her lip.

Trying hard to adjust her physical condition.

"Since we last parted, after such a time without seeing you, you don’t know how much I’ve missed you. Every night I sleep, you haunt my dreams..."

"Young Master Qin," Xie Ruotong interrupted him, looking relaxed, "A friend’s wife must not be coveted."

Qin Shuyang furrowed his brow.

Didn’t Xie Ruilin say that he had already drugged Xie Ruotong?!

According to the time.

Xie Ruotong should have collapsed by now.

How can she still stand there looking no different?

And if he really forced himself now...

Xie Ruilin had told him that Xie Ruotong’s martial arts skills were strong, even ten strong men could not necessarily defeat her.

Although he selected the best four guards from his home today, given Xie Ruilin’s tone, he did not dare to try lightly.

Moreover, if they really started fighting.

It would draw attention.

He wasn’t ready to stir up trouble.

Going back, he would surely be beaten by his own father again.

"Song Yanqing doesn’t like you," pondered Qin Shuyang a lot in his heart, while maintaining a well-disguised demeanor, "Perhaps, Yanqing is actually hoping I’d do something to you, and then he would have an excuse to divorce you."

Saying this, Qin Shuyang reached out his hand.

Just to test Xie Ruotong.

Xie Ruotong raised her hand and dodged, "Young Master Qin, behave yourself."

"Behave myself?" Qin Shuyang laughed recklessly, "I, Qin Shuyang, am famously flirtatious in Xun City, do you think I still care about this bit of reputation?!"

"Young Master Qin might not care, but the Qin Residence will," Xie Ruotong endured the extreme discomfort of her body, "If today, Young Master Qin insists on humiliating me like this, I too can turn the tables. With all people around, I just need to scream out loud, and it will attract everyone’s attention. By then, even if my reputation is ruined, Young Master Qin won’t necessarily have good days ahead."

She was gambling.

Gambling that Qin Shuyang wouldn’t dare.

The last time at the birthday banquet at Song Residence, Qin Shuyang couldn’t have gone back without being reprimanded by the Qin Family.

Otherwise, he wouldn’t have been so docile for so long.

If it weren’t for Xie Ruilin initiating collusion with Qin Shuyang, he likely wouldn’t dare make a rash move.

Now she could only use the Qin Residence to threaten him again.

"If I remember correctly," Xie Ruotong looked at Qin Shuyang and continued, "your sister is now in the Imperial Palace, during a critical period. If you now engage in despicable acts that involve your sister...I believe, my grandmother holds a higher status in the emperor’s heart. Young Master Qin, please think twice before you act."

Qin Shuyang could clearly hear the threat in Xie Ruotong’s words.

Using his family to threaten her.

And using his sister, Qin Junsheng, to threaten him.

Indeed, beside the noble Imperial Concubine, the favorite person around the emperor was his sister and Liu Xinran, which is why their family’s status in the court was rising. If because of him his sister faced repercussions in the palace...

Such consequences, he indeed couldn’t afford.

Qin Shuyang stared fiercely at Xie Ruotong.

This woman.

Was smarter than he thought.

Directly pinpointing his weakness, making him, dare not act rashly.

"Young Master Qin, I beg your leave," Xie Ruotong said.

Without pausing for a moment.

She turned around and left.

After all.

Her body’s condition could no longer endure her torment.
