Chapter 18: Pressure and the way to live

Although Xiao Tianyao didn’t put too much force to his sword, but for ordinary people his speed is very fast. But, he didn’t expect that Lin Chujiu have the ability to escape his sword. The reality shows that… …

He underestimated this woman!

The moment he points out his sword in between her eyebrows, Lin Chujiu bend her waist backward in ninety degrees. So, Xiao Tianyao’s sword hit an empty air.

But, that is not the reason why Xiao Tianyao got shocked. The reason he got shocked to the extent is Lin Chujiu’s incredible soft waist that bend just like that.

After Lin Chujiu bends her waist in ease, she immediately stands up and walks toward him.

Xiao Tianyao doesn’t know when exactly did Lin Chujiu got a knife. And that knife just arrived in his heart. As long as it moves forward, he will die. But of course, he also didn’t realized that he put his sword near Lin Chujiu’s neck.

Wangye (Prince), you are careless.” Lin Chujiu’s right hand was holding the knife. She was only one punch away from him. She gently took a breath, but she was able to smell Xiao Tianyao’s coldness.

“Benwang (this prince), underestimated you.” Xiao Tianyao coldly said. But, his deep eyes became more and more calm. And there is no trace of change in emotion.

And it’s not that Xiao Tianyao got careless, but he got too weak. Although he didn’t got affected by the powder drug, but after a long battle and after he forced himself to stand up. He is now only a bit stronger than ordinary people.

Earlier, he saw completely Lin Chujiu’s action, but his body got too weak so he wasn’t able to respond on time and can only pick up a cheap bargain with her.

Xiao Tianyao slightly moves closer the blade on Lin Chujiu’s neck and soon enough, the blood flows out. Lin Chujiu frowned and said: “Wangye (Prince), can you move far your sword a little?”

Lin Chujiu doesn’t plan to hurt him.

Benwang’s (this prince) hand is shaking because the sword is heavy.” Xiao Tianyao’s eyes swept on Lin Chujiu’s hand that was holding a knife.

Lin Chujiu was holding the knife steadily as if she is not a woman.

Wangye (Prince), your joke is not funny.” Lin Chujiu look at his eyes and said: “Wangye (Prince), please try to understand. I don’t have any malicious intent. Just let me… …”

Lin Chujiu’s last word got interrupted by arrows… …

*Ta- Ta- Ta*

Three consecutive arrows were about to pierced towards Xiao Tianyao and Lin Chujiu.

“Damn!”

This time, Xiao Tianyao and Lin Chuji stops threatening each other. Xiao Tianyao response quickly, he turned his head and throw his sword on the arrow.

*Clang*

By throwing out the sword, Xiao Tianyao was able to stop the first arrow. The scalpel in Lin Chujiu’s hand that was only a punch away in his heart got also thrown out by him.

The scalpel turns beautifully in the air like a windmill. And hit the second the second arrow. But… …

The third arrow!

In the end, the third arrow didn’t give Xiao Tianyao and Lin Chujiu time to  breath. If Xiao Tianyao is still as strong as before, he only needed to wave his hand and he can knock down these three arrows immediately. But in his current condition … …

He can only escape!

The third arrow was approaching fast. Xiao Tianyao looked at Lin Chujiu, he doesn’t know why his hand moved faster than his brain.  He doesn’t know why his hand automatically wrap around Lin Chujiu’s waist and jump out in a safe area.

*Bang*

Both of them fell and roll in a circle on the bed.

“Ah……”

Lin Chujiu’s injured left shoulder directly hit the bed, so she couldn’t help but shout in pain. Her face didn’t change in color, but her forehead was full of cold sweat. But before she could even react, Xiao Tianyao pressed her under his body.

“Lin Chujiu, benwang (this prince) will give you two choices. Say, do you want Benwang (this prince) to kill you or poison you?” Xiao Tianyao grabbed Lin Chujiu’s neck.

Lin Chujiu has no doubt that this man will really kill her. Honestly, she’s good in persuasion. She wanted to explain to Xiao Tianyao the pros and cons if he let her stay alive. But … …

I’m so furious!

She was so angry!

Ever since she became a famous surgeon in the M Country, she wouldn’t feel threatened nor act timid.

She repeatedly backs down and repeatedly shows her sincerity. But, this man still refused to listen to her and even want to take her life. So, how could she endure that ah?

Lin Chujiu doesn’t usually get angry easily because she is as soft as a steamed bun. But, what will she do? He is pinching her now, so shouldn’t she pinch back?

Today, Xiao Tianyao doesn’t plan to let this woman stay alive!

Lin Chujiu glared at him, while her right hand crossed behind Xiao Tianyao’s back. And when she determine Xiao Tianyao is not aware, Lin Chujiu didn’t hesitate to pressed her finger and pull him down: “Wangye (Prince), you are really careless!”

“Hmm … …” Xiao Tianyao’s facial expression change, he wants to increase the force in his hand. But … …

He didn’t make it at all!

“Lin Chujiu!” This woman’s talent is deeply hidden. People won’t be able to find it easily.

Wangye (Prince), I’m … …” Lin Chujiu turned and pressed him under her body. She puts her right leg under his crotch and whispered: “Say, do you want me to completely waste your legs or your third leg?”

“You won’t dare!” Xiao Tianyao’s face looks assured. Although Lin Chujiu made an attempt, but panic shows in her face. As if she doesn’t plan to threaten him in the first place.

The calm look in his face made Lin Chujiu gritted her teeth. Because… …

She really doesn’t dare!

If she crippled Xiao Tianyao or kill Xiao Tianyao. What will she do next? Where will she go?

She can’t go back to Lin Family’s Mansion now and even if she went back she will only seek her own death. And with her “delicate” appearance, she estimated that other men in this town will keep an eye on her. Which is even more dangerous.

Thinking about how dangerous it would be if she goes out and wonder outside in this completely strange world. Only Prince Xiao’s Mansion is relatively safer for her.

With such thoughts, Lin Chujiu’s anger lessens with three points.

Hey, people under pressure should bow their heads.

Lin Chujiu look at Xiao Tianyao and said her grievances: “Wangye (Prince), since you know that I can’t kill you. You should also know that I am not against you, but the whole palace, the crown prince and Lin Family.”

“I know that you are not satisfied with this marriage, but I can’t refuse. The emperor set this marriage so I have no other choice. But now, we are tied together and you can also see that we are in the same boat. I will certainly won’t cause you trouble. And I am definitely the first person who doesn’t want to see you get in trouble.”

Lin Chujiu said, while watching Xiao Tianyao expression. But, Xiao Tianyao is a person who has always been expressionless and even if he was under Lin Chujiu’s body he has no reaction. So, Lin Chujiu doesn’t know what he is thinking…

Lin Chujiu stared at Xiao Tianyao for a long time, but Xiao Tianyao’s face still look the same. Lin Chujiu can only bite a bullet and continue: “Wangye (Prince), we are married now, so I am your wife. No matter what happen I will stand beside you and will never betray you. So, can you give me a chance to live?”

In the end, Lin Chujiu felt that she really is too poor … …
