Chapter 92: This Is My Beloved, You Have Humiliated Her Too Much (2)
Su Qing continued his actions without pause.
He knew his words made him sound like some villain, but he couldn't deny the satisfaction he felt.
He wasn't sure exactly where Tang Xuan was hiding, but that didn't matter. This was enough.
Tang Xuan never imagined he would end up making things worse. He was already filled with frustration.
Now, he didn't dare move at all, even feeling like he could no longer bear to stay here.
If he remained, he would only witness even more unbearable sights.
Clenching his eyes shut, he refused to look at the horrifying scene before him, struggling to control his emotions.
Endure. He had to endure!
He had to wait for the perfect opportunity. If he rushed in now, it would all be for nothing.
For now, all he could do was pray that the villain wouldn't go too far.
Once he regained his composure, Tang Xuan decisively turned and left.
Before he departed, a hint of pity flashed through his eyes.
"Sister-in-law, in my heart, you are still pure and untainted."
"No matter what you've been through, I will save you and give you a new life!"
Thinking of Su Qing only deepened the hatred in Tang Xuan's heart.
He had already intended to kill him, but now, new and old grudges had combined!
If I don't kill you, how can I still call myself a man? How can I face the world?
In truth, Tang Xuan hadn't truly reached the level where he should have descended from the mountain.
It was only because his master's friend informed him of his family's massacre that he made the decision to leave.
Besides that tragedy, he had also learned about the whereabouts of his goddess.
But it wasn't good news.
The ethereal and aloof goddess had willingly placed herself beside a villain!
With that villain's nature, could he possibly treat her with respect? Could they live together like chaste companions?
Absolutely not!
Because of these two major events, Tang Xuan had insisted on descending the mountain, begging his master repeatedly.
Now, he felt immense relief—at least he had returned in time.
If he hadn't, they would have suffered even more!
That villain was not only the Empress's lackey but had repeatedly defiled the woman he loved!
He had already sealed his fate. Tang Xuan would not let him die an easy death!
With an icy expression, Tang Xuan didn't even consider whether Ye Xueyi was willingly by Su Qing's side.
After all, a goddess like her could never be associated with such a villain!
Su Qing wasn't sure if Tang Xuan was still watching. His ability to conceal himself was truly impressive.
Perhaps the protagonist had already left, unwilling to see what came next.
But that didn't matter.
What mattered was—
This protagonist had an impressive level of endurance!
He just stood there and watched as Su Qing humiliated his so-called sister-in-law. And what did he do? He tossed a tiny rock.
Even more ridiculous—after throwing that rock, he did nothing else.
Couldn't you have caused some real trouble? This was just pathetic!
Nong Ying had been speaking up for Tang Xuan all this time, and he must have heard it.
Yet, despite hearing it, he still hadn't shown the slightest reaction.
Honestly, Su Qing didn't know whether to laugh or be disappointed.
This guy was both patient and cunning—a true turtle hiding in its shell.
Meanwhile, Nong Ying was filled with complicated emotions, mainly exasperation.
This guy had come in asking all kinds of questions, but they were completely trivial.
Interrogation? This was just a formality!
Those hands roaming her body were far more active than his questioning!
What a corrupt villain, completely neglecting the Empress's orders for his own desires!
To be honest, having such an enemy was actually a stroke of luck.
So, she had no problem playing along.
Biting her lip, Nong Ying endured, putting on the most pitiful and helpless expression.
Anyone who saw what was happening in this room would undoubtedly be outraged.
A handsome young man, with a wicked smile, had his hands all over a helpless, respectable woman.
Anyone with a shred of justice in their heart wouldn't be able to stand such a sight.
Even Su Qing himself had to admire Nong Ying's skills.
No wonder she never revealed any flaws in the early stages of the game, making so many people obsessed with her.
She looked dignified and virtuous, the very image of a gentle and strong older sister.
Even in adversity, she would weakly push his hands away as if trying her best to resist.
But in reality?
She knew perfectly well that her frail, seductive act only made her even more enticing.
Upon closer observation, Su Qing could see that behind her pitiful performance lay a calm composure.
And beneath that—deep disdain.
It was as if she were watching a fool who had been utterly deceived, observing his clumsy performance.
What Nong Ying didn't know was that there were two actors on this stage, both putting on their best performance.
One of them knew the other was acting, while the other remained clueless.
Fortunately, Su Qing was the former.
He even knew that, although the sensation felt real, the advantage he was taking was an illusion.
After all, when playing a game, no one liked to see the heroine being treated this way by a villain.
Well, except for certain tastes—but most people preferred a different narrative.
Why was it fake?
At this moment, ripples spread silently around Nong Ying's body.
Every time Su Qing reached out to take advantage, an imperceptible distortion altered the angle of his actions.
Though he didn't consciously notice it, there was a subtle sense of discord.
"My lord, the Tang family has already been destroyed. Please, I beg you to spare its last remaining bloodline."
"I'm willing to pay any price, even if it means becoming your servant."
Nong Ying's lips parted slightly as she spoke in a pleading tone.
It sounded like a plea, but her eyes shimmered with a captivating light, as if she were trying to entice him.
Who could resist such temptation?
"This… this is a serious matter. I must seek the Empress's approval. You should return for now."
Su Qing appeared moved, hesitated briefly, then spoke.
"My lord, I will await your decision."
Nong Ying nodded and was escorted back to her prison cell.
Seated on the cold, hard wooden board, she let out a gentle sigh.
Everything was proceeding according to plan, each step falling into place smoothly.
The catalyst had been set. Now, all that remained was for the fated child to grow stronger.
With such provocation, Tang Xuan would undoubtedly push himself harder to become more powerful.
As for that detestable villain—he was nothing more than a tool to be used.
Even though he hadn't truly touched her, just the act itself left her feeling deeply uncomfortable.
But for now, that villain still had his uses.
Once he agreed to her request, she could successfully infiltrate his side!
But would everything really go as this widow wished?
