Hairpin Phoenix

   Chapter 311 Old Resentment

  The moonlight is bright and cold, sprinkled through the dense bamboo branches.

   Li Hao couldn't see Lu Mingyu's face clearly, but he could clearly perceive the coldness in her eyes. The boundless astringency surged into my heart, spread into my mouth, and turned into bitterness on the tip of my tongue.

   "Xiaoyu," Li Hao spit out a few words with difficulty: "Do you hate me so much? Hate so much that you don't want to marry me again, and hate that you would rather give up our Yan'er?"

As soon as the word   Yan'er entered his ears, Lu Mingyu's whole body was shocked, and the coldness in his eyes turned into boundless hatred and resentment.

   He really knows everything!

   How could he still have a face!

Li Hao took a step forward, his handsome face revealed in the moonlight, and the intense pain in his black eyes could be seen at a glance: "Xiaoyu, I am sorry for you. I have lost your affection, and I shouldn't have been wronging you to my mother. You shouldn't be suspicious of you and the Lu family, and pass the throne to the fifth brother..."

"To shut up!"

  Lu Mingyu coldly spit out two words: "These fake words make me sick."

   Li Hao trembled as if he had been pricked by a needle, and Jun's face turned pale.

   "Li Hao, since your mother told you everything. You should understand that we are mortal enemies, and there is no possibility of war."

   "You are not qualified to mention Yan'er in front of me."

   Li Hao was heartbroken and his voice trembled: "Why didn't you tell me at first? If I had known all this earlier, I..."

   "What can you do?" Lu Mingyu sneered, his words sharp and ruthless: "Will you kill your mother and brother for my righteousness?"

  Li Hao opened his mouth, but couldn't utter a word, Jun's face turned white.

"For me, being betrayed by my husband is a bone-chilling pain." Lu Mingyu's voice was so cold that there was no trace of warmth: "For you, that is your mother's younger brother, a close relative whose blood is thicker than water. The relatives you must protect. How could you break up with them for me?"

   "Even if you could do it, I would never want to marry you again."

   "Yan'er has no fate with me in this life. This is also helpless. You are in front of me, and you are not worthy of mentioning him at all."

  Lu Mingyu has not been so excited for a long time.

  The old resentment that was deeply pressed in my heart swept like a tsunami. The blood in the whole body rushed, gurgling flowing in the temple.

   If it weren't for her having a bit of reason, I'm afraid she would kill Li Hao now: "Get out! Get out of my eyes now!"

  Li Hao didn't roll away, and took another step forward. The two got closer, and finally they could see each other's faces clearly: "Xiaoyu, what did fifth brother do to you?"

Disgust flashed in Lu Mingyu's eyes, and he sneered again and again: "What? Concubine Su doesn't have the courage to tell you? A coward who has been suppressed by his brother for several years, his heart is dark and twisted, and he covets everything about his brother. The brother trusted him and left him the throne, Let him take care of his nephew until he grows up. He can't wait to take care of the widow's sister-in-law."

   "If it wasn't for my martial arts skills, if I was addicted to a drug, I could kick that disgusting bastard, and I would have to be bullied at the mercy of others!"

   Li Hao felt as if he had been punched in the chest, and Jun's face lost a trace of blood.

   It turned out that the truth was more cruel than he could guess.

   Lu Mingyu's heart flashed with cruel pleasure, and suddenly took a step closer: "This is the fact you want to hear. You know it now, how do you feel?"

   The hatred flashing in those eyes was so intense that Li Hao could hardly bear the sharpness, so he took a step back subconsciously.

  Lu Mingyu asked coldly, "You know everything now, what are you going to do? How are you going to avenge your wife and children in your previous life?"

   "Will you kill your own mother, or will you kill Li Chang?"

  Li Hao couldn't say a word, and took another step back.

   Lu Mingyu's eyes flashed a sneer: "Sure enough, you can't do anything. At most, you just say some useless nonsense to appease me and let me continue to bear it."

   "Li Hao, I've seen through you a long time ago."

   "In your heart, no one is as important as your mother and brother. I, Lu Mingyu, deserved to be let down. It was because I was blind that I gave up on you."

   "You don't deserve to mention Yan'er. I don't want to meet you in private anymore. There is no entanglement between you and me, except for hatred."

After   , she turned around and walked out of the bamboo forest.

  Li Hao didn't move, just watched Lu Mingyu's figure go away.

   Then, he turned his head and spat out another mouthful of blood.

  …

  The icy night wind blew on his cheeks, a slight chill, but it couldn't quench the anger in Lu Mingyu's heart.

   The resentment and resentment of the previous life flooded into her heart, and the boundless darkness and coldness surrounded her and drowned her... She hadn't thought of the past for a long time.

  Tonight, Li Hao aroused old hatred.

  Qiyun was also shocked, and rushed over quickly: "Niangniang, what's wrong with you? What did the third highness say, how did you make Niangniang so angry?"

  Lu Mingyu's eyes were burning with anger, and his voice was tense: "I'll go back to the East Palace first. If you send a message to the crown prince, you say that I'm not feeling well. I have to rest first, and then I won't go to appreciate the lanterns."

   In her current state, it is really inappropriate to appear in front of people.

  Qiyun suppressed the shock and doubts in her heart and nodded in response.

  Lu Mingyu quickly returned to the East Palace and entered the bedroom alone.

   It was dark in the bedroom, and even the candlesticks were not lit. She sat silently in the dark, letting the anger swell in her heart. After her rebirth, this was the first time she indulged herself in old hatred.

   seems like a moment, and it seems like a long time.

   She had no idea that time was passing.

   Until the knock on the door woke her up from the boundless darkness: "Xiaoyu."

   is Li Jing's voice.

   Li Jing knocked on the door again, his voice was fast and anxious: "Xiaoyu, open the door."

   The door was not bolted, and he could have pushed in. But no matter how anxious he was, he didn't break in without authorization. Keep knocking on the door, waiting for her to answer.

   Even husbands and wives have secrets they don’t want to share, and vulnerabilities they don’t want to reveal.

   At this time, what she needs is an independent space.

  Lu Mingyu's nose was a little sour, and he opened his mouth with a hoarse voice: "I'm fine, I just want to be alone for a while."

   Li Jing outside the door was silent for a moment, then whispered: "Okay, I'll be watching outside the door. Open the door if you want to see me."

   Then, there was no sound.

  Her world, darkened again.

   But the anger that was about to submerge and swallow her slowly faded away. Calm and rational, gradually returned to the cage.

   She didn't know how long she sat, until she was completely calm and sober. She just got up and opened the door.

  Li Jing really kept guarding the door.

   As soon as the door opened, Li Jing immediately looked over. After confirming that Lu Mingyu was calm, he breathed a sigh of relief and reached out to touch Lu Mingyu's cheek: "I thought you were hiding in the room and weeping secretly, but you didn't cry."

  Lu Mingyu: "..."
