That night, Yang Ruoning waited in Jiangxian Pavilion until midnight before returning home. She walked down the empty street, feeling very uneasy.

Sooner or later, Luo Yuan would know that Jiang Qi had killed everyone. She was uneasy, she didn't know if Luo Yuan had learned that the informant lurking beside him was herself.

She stood outside the door, hesitating to go in now. She was even a little scared. She thought about what Yuefeng had told her about the handmaidens. Those maids were actually sent by Jiang Qi to spy on Luo Yuan, and they were as smart as Luo Yuan shouldn't know, so they disappeared mysteriously. And now, she caused him to lose his plan to seize the throne, losing nearly a thousand people, what will he do to her? Will you kill her?

Whatever the outcome, she still needs to face it. Yang Ruoning took a deep breath and pushed open the side door of the mansion that led to the back garden.

After entering, she saw Luo Yuan sitting at the stone table in the courtyard. He turned his back to her and didn't seem to notice her coming in.

When she got closer, she realized that Luo Yuan was actually wearing her Bluetooth headset. Over his shoulder, Yang Ruoning saw the computer turned on in front of him, and what was playing on the screen was the recordings of those monitors!

A feeling of naked shame after being discovered suddenly turned into an irrepressible anger, Yang Ruoning suddenly stepped forward and slammed the computer slammed shut.

Luo Yuan was startled by her sudden rough behavior, he frowned slightly, and raised his eyes to look at her.

Yang Ruoning, "Why do you want to move my things at will?!" ”

Luo Yuan's face didn't have any expression, he just stared at her silently, and Yang Ruoning was a little hairy by his staring.

"Is that you?" He asked in a deep voice, and beneath the fierce voice was the anger that he was trying to suppress.

Yang Ruoning didn't answer, her face flushed.

Yang Ruoning's silence seemed to have answered his question. Luo Yuan took a deep breath and asked, "Why?" ”

She didn't know how to answer, she hadn't really figured it out yet.

Before she could speak, Luo Yuan suddenly asked again, "Do you like him?" ”

“What？ …… No！ How many times am I going to explain this to you? We're not what you think! Jesus, Luo Yuan, why do you keep holding on to this?! ”

"Then why did you help him?" There was no trace of emotion in his eyes.

"I'm not helping him! No...... I help him, but not what you think! ”

"Do you know what it means to me that you do this?" Luo Yuan stood up, and he took a step forward. The coldness he exuded made Yang Ruoning instinctively take a step back.

"What the hell am I saying to you, Yang Ruoning?"

Yang Ruoning paused, but her momentary hesitation angered Luo Yuan. He grabbed Yang Ruoning and shouted, "Did you marry me just to help him?!" ”

Yang Ruoning was clamped by Luo Yuan's hands and couldn't move. Her arm hurt like it was about to break. "These are two fundamental problems! My marriage to you has nothing to do with Aono! ”

"You've told me over and over again not to hurt Aono, and now you're not willing to betray me to save him, and you're trying so hard to help him just because you're friends?! Are you really naïve enough to think I'm going to believe it? Yang Ruoning, are you doing this because you are sincerely in love with him?! ”

"God, Luo Yuan, I've told you countless times, Aono and I are just friends...... I don't want him to die......"

"Because you don't want him dead?! What about me? You're going to watch me die?! ”

Yang Ruoning was stunned for a moment, she found that she had never thought about this problem. Did she care about his feelings?

Maybe it's because she sees his future, knows that he will be the ultimate victor, knows that he will be the king of a country, a strong and invincible ruthless emperor, because this concept has preconceived and made her think that no matter what happens, he is strong enough to accept it calmly, but she never thought that after this series of identities, he is also a person with feelings.

But, Luo Yuan, if one of you and Aono must die, I'...... I would choose my family. I've lost all the people I love, and I can't see Aono leave me anymore.

"Do you know that the throne was originally mine, and the Queen Mother and Jiang Qi designed to kill me and the Queen Mother for the sake of the throne...... The queen mother died, and I was the only one who escaped. This revenge for killing mothers ......"

Yang Ruoning met Luo Yuan's eyes that became a little fierce, "The person who designed to kill your mother may be dead, Luo Yuan!" Your hatred and the Queen Mother have nothing to do with Qingye, they are innocent! ”

"Yang Ruoning, you blindly protect them so much, and say that you and Qingye are just friends? Hmph, even if that person is dead, but Qingye, Jiang Qi, Jiang Yuefeng, they are not innocent! ”

"So, according to your logic, you have taken revenge, and Aono's relatives will seek revenge on you or your descendants, do you want to trap all people in your hatred for the rest of your life?" Yang Ruoning retorted loudly, but the madness and anger in Luo Yuan's eyes at this moment made her a little scared, she thought of her own grave in the wormhole, could it be ......

As if sensing Yang Ruoning's fear, his tone suddenly eased, "Ruoning, do you know that everything I do is for you......"

"For me?" Yang Ruoning raised her voice, "Everything you do is for me?" It's ridiculous! Yes, I already knew what you wanted to do. You want to be the emperor, you want to kill Aono. But you're saying it's for me?! Please don't make a noble excuse for your ambitions. Have you asked me what I think? What kind of queen concubine harem, I don't care at all. I don't want to be stuck in that prison-like place. I asked you to get out of here together, but did you care?! ”

The strength in Luo Yuan's hand loosened slightly. Yang Ruoning took the opportunity to escape from his hand, she pushed him suddenly, and Luo Yuan was pushed by her and staggered backwards.

"You know, it's all because of your ambition. You want to be the emperor, you want the supreme power. But things in the world are not so easy, what you gain is bound to lose something. Those people, yes, they may have died because of me, but at the end of the day, they died because of your ambition! The more Yang Ruoning spoke, the more excited she became, "Also, I also want to ask you, why did you marry me?" Is it really because you like me? Luo Yuan, we've only known each other for a few months! Don't tell me you fell in love at first sight. I've never believed in love at first sight. You look at me, such an ordinary person! If I hadn't come from another plane, would you be looking at me right now?! What's the difference between the two of us? It's just a matter of taking what you need! ”

Yang Ruoning realized at this time that she seemed to have lost her words. Luo Yuan's face was already difficult to see, and he couldn't look at it directly. He was like a bomb that could explode at any moment. She swallowed unconsciously, took a step back, and distanced herself from him.

"Luo Yuan, you and I have told a lot of lies to each other, haven't we? You said that you are the only woman in this life, but I saw you and Hui Niang together. Yes, I saw it, in a restaurant in the suburbs, I saw you and Hui Niang. Maybe you think it's nothing, but I'm different, I'm not from this era, and the relationship between men and women can't tolerate a third person for me. So the moment you let a third person squeeze between us, there is no loyalty and trust in our relationship. So even if I have anything to do with other men, you have no right to accuse me! ”

Luo Yuan took a deep breath, and his clenched fist actually let go. "Yang Ruoning, there is nothing between me and Huiniang."

"Ho, I think the two of us have very different definitions of the relationship between men and women!"

"So what's your definition? What are you and Aono? ”

"He's a very important person to me, no, he's the most important person to me." She looked at him and replied word for word.

Her words made Luo Yuan take a step back, and the disappointment and pain in his eyes made Yang Ruoning avoid his gaze. She still hurt him after all.

The courtyard was dead quiet. Luo Yuan didn't say anything anymore, but said to her as he turned to leave, "Yang Ruoning, I will definitely kill him." ”

“F***k you! Do you want to kill Qingye? Step over my corpse first! Yang Ruoning yelled hysterically at Luo Yuan's departing back. Hi, I haven't told you yet, you're no different from Aono! That's not your throne either! You are simply not eligible to inherit! She casually grabbed an object next to her and slammed it at him. Luo Yuan's figure was stunned at the moment he was smashed, but he only tilted his head slightly, and then strode out of the courtyard without looking back.

Yang Ruoning sat down dejectedly. In this quarrel, she actually didn't explain anything clearly, but it made Luo Yuan firm up her murderous intent towards Qingye. She was enveloped in a deep sense of powerlessness. She could neither stop Luo Yuan nor save Qingye. She realized that the prophecy in the wormhole was actually a warning to her, telling her that whatever she did, it was just a mantis arm blocking the car.

She couldn't protect anyone, she couldn't even save herself.

Yang Ruoning went to Jiang Qi again, she wanted to go to the palace to see Qingye, Jiang Qi said that the emperor was busy with his studies today, and he was afraid to wait a little longer. She asked again if she could go to visit Yuefeng, and Jiang Qi said that Yuefeng had been in poor health recently, and she couldn't see guests. Jiang Qi asked, what has Luo Yuan been doing in the mansion these days. Yang Ruoning said that they had a quarrel, and she hadn't been back for several days.

When I came out of Jiangfu, it was already more than eight o'clock in the evening. She walked on the uninhabited path by the river, looking at the lights and shadows in the distance, thinking about her thoughts. That deep sense of powerlessness haunted her, and she was a little out of breath.

Bang! Suddenly, there was a sharp pain in his brain, and Yang Ruoning's eyes went dark, and he suddenly lost consciousness.
