- Chapter 5 - Who Looks Down on Him So Much to Send Such an Idiot to Kill Him
Sure enough, everything on TV is a lie. The big demon lords on TV are all so adorable and cute.
Where was Xiao Yueqing adorable? He was simply a complete pervert.
“What are you thinking about again? Stop letting your imagination run wild. I have no interest in you.”
Xiao Yueqing suddenly moved close to Yun Dan’s face, startling her so much that she stumbled backward several steps.
Did this man really have to scare her to death?
“Can you please stop appearing and disappearing like a ghost? I’m really scared. When you suddenly whoosh over like that in an instant, you’re really going to scare me to death.”
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yueqing suddenly burst into laughter, which startled Yun Sheng, Yun Xiao, and several guards nearby.
They had no idea that their master actually had moments when he would laugh.
“You said your name is Yun Dan. That’s quite a nice name. I rather like your name. You seem quite different from other women out there.”
This man wasn’t the type to sincerely praise people. Who knew what might be hidden beneath that smile—perhaps a knife.
Yun Dan couldn’t help but touch her neck, afraid that Xiao Yueqing might suddenly strike her.
Xiao Yueqing produced a folding fan from somewhere and fanned himself with it.
After thinking for a moment, he said, “How about I call you Yun Duo from now on? Yun Dan, Yun Dan—bland and tasteless. Yun Duo suits you better, looks silly.”
No matter how foolish Yun Dan was, she could still tell that Xiao Yueqing was insulting her.
No wonder he was still single at such an old age!
Anyone who stayed with him would probably be angered to the point of vomiting blood, wouldn’t they?
He folded the fan and gently tapped Yun Dan’s head with it, saying, “Silly girl, you really are different. I’ve met many women over the years, but you’re the only one who dares to look me in the eye for so long. Are you really not afraid of me at all?”
Yun Dan nodded, then shook her head, thinking that no matter how she answered, she’d offend someone, so she might as well not say anything.
This actually made Xiao Yueqing burst into laughter.
Life at Tianqing Manor was bland and boring. If he had such a treasure like this, it might become much more interesting.
Tianqing Manor hadn’t actually admitted any new people for a long time, but this girl’s origins were unknown, making one inevitably wary.
Xiao Yueqing couldn’t understand who had sent such a stupid spy.
Could such a stupid spy really complete the assigned mission?
You have to know that over the years, there were plenty of righteous sects wanting to kill him, and they would always try every means to infiltrate Tianqing Manor to assassinate him.
But without exception, they were all masters.
He’d never seen one this stupid before.
Who exactly looked down on him so much to send such a stupid girl to assassinate him?
Xiao Yueqing’s expression suddenly changed as he lifted her chin and questioned, “Yun Dan, who exactly sent you to assassinate me, hmm?”
Yun Dan shook her head frantically. What assassination? Did this man have persecution complex?
How did falling into his bath pool count as trying to assassinate him?
If she had fallen in front of some emperor or prince, wouldn’t she be executed immediately?
Yun Dan shrank her neck. “I really didn’t want to assassinate you. You know I don’t know any martial arts or anything like that. How could I assassinate you, with my thoughts?”
What a joke—if thoughts could kill people, you wouldn’t still be jumping around right now!
Xiao Yueqing suddenly laughed once, then released Yun Dan.
Feeling the crisis had passed, Yun Dan finally breathed a sigh of relief. Did this man have split personality disorder?
His emotions kept changing—good one moment, bad the next. Could he really be suffering from online personality splitting?
“What are you thinking about?”
“I’m thinking whether that big demon lord is mentally ill.”
Right after saying it, Yun Dan regretted it. How did everything she was thinking suddenly come out of her mouth?
It’s over, it’s over—she was caught red-handed talking bad about him. She was definitely dead!
Yun Dan immediately dodged to the side, thinking that if he wanted to ambush her, at least she’d have some mental preparation.
But this time, Xiao Yueqing surprisingly made no move at all, simply choosing to turn his back to her.
“Hey, big demon lord, aren’t you angry?”
Xiao Yueqing slightly turned his head to look at her. “Why should I be angry?”
“I said you were mentally ill and called you a big demon lord.”
Xiao Yueqing chuckled softly. “That’s the truth. Why should I blame you for it? However, I don’t particularly like hearing such words, even if they are all true. Otherwise… you know the consequences.”
Upon hearing this, Yun Dan instinctively became alert again, hurriedly shrinking her neck. “Don’t send me to that feng shui treasure land. I’ll do anything you want.”
At this moment, Xiao Yueqing suddenly moved close to Yun Dan’s face. They were extremely close, making Yun Dan feel somewhat dazed.
“If I wanted you to die for me, would you be willing?”
Yun Dan immediately snapped back to reality and frantically shook her head. “I’m not willing. Thank you, but I want to live.”
Only then did Xiao Yueqing release her and sigh. “Yes, everyone wants to live. Even when pushed to desperate straits, they desperately want to stay alive.”
For some reason, Yun Dan felt there was a hidden meaning in his words. When he said this, his emotions were clearly off. Could something have happened to him?
“What’s wrong with you?”
After thinking it over, Yun Dan decided to voice her thoughts, thinking his mood seemed pretty good at the moment, right?
“I’ll take you somewhere.”
Before Yun Dan could react, Xiao Yueqing had already brought her flying to a sea of flowers.
The flowers were purple. Yun Dan couldn’t identify the variety, but she definitely hadn’t seen this type in modern times.
“Big demon lord, what kind of flowers are these? They’re so beautiful!”
“My mother planted them. Passion flowers.”
“Your mother has great taste. These flowers are called passion flowers? They’re really beautiful. Can I pick one?”
As Yun Dan spoke, she reached out to pluck one, but Xiao Yueqing grabbed her hand and pulled her back a step.
“Are you tired of living?” Xiao Yueqing’s eyes now showed a sinister glint.
Yun Dan rubbed her wrist that had been grabbed painfully, looking at Xiao Yueqing with an aggrieved expression. “I just thought the flowers were pretty and wanted to pick one. If you won’t let me, then fine, but why be so fierce?”
Xiao Yueqing sighed somewhat helplessly. “Didn’t your mother teach you that the more beautiful something is, the more poisonous it tends to be?”
“Poisonous?”
Upon hearing this, Yun Dan almost jumped up. Did this guy mean these flowers were poisonous?
So he was actually saving her just now?
Would he be so kind-hearted?
She found it hard to believe.
“Passion flowers are poisonous flowers. All these passion flowers were planted by my mother. If I hadn’t stopped you, you would have already turned into a pile of bones.”
Now Yun Dan completely lost her composure, frightened into immediately shrinking behind Xiao Yueqing, staying far away from those passion flowers. But in her unconscious reaction, she accidentally grabbed Xiao Yueqing’s arm again.
Xiao Yueqing’s expression looked somewhat unpleasant. Before he could get angry, Yun Dan immediately released his arm like a guilty thief.
