Chapter 140: Threat and Benwang will decide for you (Part 2)

Lin Chujiu haven’t said anything, but Xiao Tianyao continued: “If you haven’t decided yet, then benwang will decide for you.”

Lin Chujiu stayed silent and just sits there quietly with an emotionless face. However, Xiao Tianyao didn’t pay attention to it and just continue:  “The emperor had sent an imperial edict to Guo Gongfu. He appointed your uncle to be the general of 500 000 soldiers that will defeat the Northern Country’s army.”

Despite her calmness, Lin Chujiu admits that it’s not easy to avoid looking at Xiao Tianyao. She lifted her eyes and look at him, then said:  The north and east country had a fight?” The women inside the mansion are really pitiful. Because they don’t what is happening outside.

“Mmm. East has already lost three cities and many soldiers. Northern Country’s army is not an easy opponent.” Xiao Tianyao added two more information so that Lin Chujiu will know how cruel the northern army is.

“North Country attacked the east because of you, right?” Although Lin Chujiu was asking, her tone sounds like she was positive. Regardless of what Xiao Tianyao replied. Lin Chujiu said: “Wangye, if you also want to go to the war, then you should have pressured the emperor. I don’t believe you have such long temper.”

“That is not important.” Xiao Tianyao doesn’t care what Lin Chujiu think of him: “Right now, you only have two choices. Treat benwang’s legs or let your uncle go to war.”

In order to help Lin Chujiu make a decision, Xiao Tianyao deliberately made up a sentence: “You should know by now that with your uncle’s ability, it’s a miracle if he comes back alive.” Xiao Tianyao doesn’t despise Meng Shi, but if he really goes to war, his death is only a matter of time.

The original Lin Chujiu and her three uncles are not close. But from her memories, Lin Chujiu understands that Xiao Tianyao’s words are not false. And it’s true, if her uncle goes to the war, only death awaits him.

Lin Chujiu and her uncles have no affection for each other. And if Meng Laofuren didn’t visit her before, she wouldn’t care about his life. But now… …

Just by remembering Meng Laofuren’s face, Lin Chujiu couldn’t afford to refuse.

“You win!” Lin Chujiu didn’t expect that Xiao Tianyao will use this trick to force her nod her head. Her heart has this indescribable anger, but she could only hold it back.

Xiao Tianyao’s lips curve into a smile and chuckle a bit before he said: “You didn’t lose.” He hasn’t done what he truly wants to do. Similarly, he hasn’t get back his own people.

Lin Chujiu snorted and asked: “How are you going to save my uncle?”

“It’s very difficult to make a person into a great general, but it’s very easy to make a person useless.” Xiao Tianyao said. Then, he gently rubbing his thumb and ask: “Do you want him to get a serious disease or a serious injury?”

Xiao Tianyao always gives Lin Chujiu choices. But in fact, he leaves her no other choice but to give him an answer.

Lin Chujiu snapped and said: “Upon receiving the imperial edict he acquired a serious disease? Who would believe that?” The more she speaks to him, the more Lin Chujiu find him hateful. Especially, that smile on his face is so annoying.

“Then, it has to be a serious injury.” The more Lin Chujiu gets angry, the more Xiao Tianyao’s smile grows big: “The day you will treat benwang is the day that your uncle will get an injury.”

A threat!

Lin Chujiu almost explode. After all, she had never seen such a despicable person.

“What? You can’t decide when? Do you want benwang to decide for you?” With Xiao Tianyao’s words, Lin Chujiu shouted angrily: “Tomorrow!”

“Good, benwang will wait for you.” Xiao Tianyao said with full of joy.

On the contrary, compared to her emotionless face before, Lin Chujiu who is now angry become more lovely and livelier in his eyes… …

  1. I’m sorry but i really really really don’t like this male main, who doesn’t deserve to be mentioned by name! I keep waiting for him to suffer for his awful behaviour but nothing changes… can anyone who had read further ahead tell me: will he ever grovel and repent?

    1. u need to check the spoiler thread in NUF… besides, right now XTY is like a kindergarten boy.. who makes the girls he likes get angry just to get a reaction after being ignored for weeks… anyway thank u translator-san for the ch… it’s not easy to translate an annoying character like XTY…

        1. He does much worse things type in PMD spoilers in google it should take u to the novel updates thread. He’s worse than LFY, from poison genius consort, was in th beginning and doesn’t really get better.

  2. Uhhh… he is sick… oh well. Though i do understand that he only wants to get her reaction, but that shouldnt be anger alright???! Sigh. Well good luck to both of you.
    thank you for translating~

  3. I thought he was a sadistic little punk but in fact no , he is just a prick.
    Well well, anywhooo , he’ll pay for that right?
    Thanks for the translation, much appreciated.

  4. I am just waiting for the time Lin Chujiu rins away from Xiao wangfu just like how Han Yunxi did in PGC… And here’s to hoping she never gets back~~~ The ship… I already abandoned it for a long time… The runaway wife (if it ever happens) is the only thing I’m waiting to happen…. Author-sama please give justice!!!!

  5. Even though he is still like that I still like XTY I’ll just have to wait for their progress I know there is. Well thank you for the update. 😊 Godbless

  6. That is nor the way to a maidens heart XT, you can’t win her over if you keep that up….(I think?) You need to be nicer XT. LC is a special woman who deserves respect.

    Thank you soo very very much for the Chapter and hard work Xx.

  7. despite all the hate comments for the male lead, I think just because he doesn’t want Lin ChuJiu to get hurt from seeing her family got destroy (and the grandma stuff on how he knows how much Lin Chujiu and grandma care for each other) so he needs to get his legs cure asap. (also think about the 300K soilders).

    1. p.s the grandmother is getting more and more worthless, from not being of help to her she is also on the basterd who should have his head mounted on a stake’s side and also making her indecisive.

  8. The most annoying men…Leu bai.
    He is idiot, love sick stupid…Loyalti What? he is just idiot man….Sorry if I use foul word….I really hate him

  9. She’s angry? O.o but even if he didn’t present the options, if he’s in danger then she’ll be with danger too including her backer. He might have used such means but he was presenting the reality of the situation.

    >.>

    Thank you for the chapter >~> fu

  10. In the end, he is still using her for his own means. He even used her uncle’s life to threaten her to treat him. Seriously, I cannot help but vote that she never loves him because this person seriously does not deserve her.

  11. I think I’m about to drop this because of the male lead, he’s not likable at all. He wronged her and made her suffer so many grievances yet he’s still trying to get her to cure his legs. Yes, it’s either him or her uncle that have to lead the army but…would it kill him to apologize? He can’t put his pride away and just admit he’s sorry for not believing in her at first.

  12. I think that if she just agreed to help treat him and then directly killed him all her problems would be solved. She would become a wealthy widow overnight, the emperor wouldn’t care about her after he was dead… sure she has enemies in the form of her family but once the slag was dead it would be a lot easier for her to skip town…
