I am the villain in the book

“I'm not leaving!”

When Yin Xiao'e pushed Chu Xianping away and repeated her stance with a somewhat icy tone, the latter's excitement slowly froze on his face.

“Xiao'e, believe me, I definitely won't let you suffer!”

Chu Xianping hurriedly assured her, “I can't defeat Guo Yunjin, but I'll risk my life to protect you!”

“I am a cultivator and have worked in the Suspended Mirror Division. As long as we can get through this initial period, we will definitely have a good life in the future!”

“The future?”

Yin Xiao'e looked at Chu Xianping calmly and asked with some amusement, “What can you guarantee me with?”

“I, I...”

Chu Xianping hurriedly took out a silver note from his chest and stuffed it into the woman's hand, “Look! I've already saved so much silver! Enough for us to settle down in Anzhou!”

Ruitong Bank, three hundred taels of silver.

This was all of Chu Xianping's savings from his years of service in the Suspended Mirror Division.

In fact, this amount was already quite a lot. An ordinary person probably couldn't save up that much money in a lifetime.

However, Yin Xiao'e only glanced at it before disdainfully throwing the silver note on the ground.

“Xiao'e! You!”

Chu Xianping had never seen Yin Xiao'e like this before, and he was stunned for a moment.

Then, a sneering laugh rang in his ear.

“Do you know how much this pillow is worth?”

“Three hundred taels can't even buy all the items in this room, so how dare you say you won't let me suffer?”

“I...”

Chu Xianping's face was pale, and his lips trembled, “Xiao'e, you weren't like this before...”

“Before?”

The woman seemed to have heard a great joke, and said amusingly, “Young Master Chu, before was before, and now is now.”

“Tell me, which woman would give up the readily available riches and glory to live a life of constant hiding with someone who might not even survive the next day?”

“I did deceive you, but since things have come to this, if Young Master still has feelings for me, then please grant my wish.”

“...”

The embroidered room suddenly fell into a deathly silence, with only Chu Xianping's rapid breathing echoing within.

He had anticipated many scenarios before coming, but he never expected to receive such an answer.

“No, no... this isn't real...”

Chu Xianping kept shaking his head, as if trying to wake up from a nightmare and return to a reality full of beautiful fantasies.

Xiao'e must be worried about my safety, so she deliberately said this to drive me away...

That's right! It must be like this!

“Xiao'e, I...”

Chu Xianping suddenly raised his head, and a faint hope rose in his eyes.

However, the scene he saw in the next moment ruthlessly extinguished this last spark of hope.

“Whirr~”

The silk chemise worth two taels of silver quietly slipped down, and the fair and delicate skin stimulated his nerves like needles.

“Young Master Chu, I am not the kind of heartless woman. If you are really unwilling, I will give you one chance...”

Yin Xiao'e's face showed no emotion, “But after tonight, please don't come looking for me again.”

“...”

The moonlight was bright and clear, entering the room through the window as gentle as water.

Chu Xianping stared blankly at the woman he once regarded as his white moonlight, and squeezed out a few words from his throat with great difficulty.

“You, you are already with Guo Yunjin...”

“Yes.”

Yin Xiao'e replied matter-of-factly, “Wealthy families value a woman's chastity the most. Although I have not officially entered the family, I naturally have already had marital relations with Master, otherwise, why would I condescend to you now.”

“The virginity cloth is in the cabinet. Would you like to see it?”

“No, impossible...”

Chu Xianping widened his eyes, clenched his fists tightly, and tried his best to convince himself that this was not real.

However, Yin Xiao'e was too lazy to explain any further, and urged him with some impatience:

“Young Master Chu, I have done my best for you. If you don't have this intention, then please leave early!”

“...”

Chu Xianping did not speak.

He leaned against the edge of the bed in despair, his mouth opening and closing, just like a fish out of water.

And at this moment.

“Master!! This servant saw clearly! There was indeed a figure who flipped into the Fourth Madam's embroidered room from the window!!”

A sudden shout floated in from outside the window, accompanied by a burst of rapid footsteps.

Chu Xianping's face changed, but before he could make any move, he heard a very shrill scream from beside him.

“Ah!!

Master! Save me!! There's a thief!!!!”

“Xiao, Xiao'e...”

Chu Xianping looked at Yin Xiao'e, who was already curled up in the corner of the bed, in disbelief, and suddenly felt extremely cold.

This was a despairing cold.

“Bang!!”

The door was kicked open, and several martial artists immediately rushed in, pressing Chu Xianping, who had not made any resistance, to the ground without saying a word.

Yin Xiao'e, draped in her chemise, also plunged into Guo Yunjin's arms with tears in her eyes at this time.

“Ma, Master, boo hoo hoo, this thief wanted to take liberties with me!”

“If you had come any later, I, I would have been taken advantage of by him!”

“I, I'm so scared, boo hoo hoo...”

“Hmph!”

The corners of Guo Yunjin's mouth twitched, and he pushed Yin Xiao'e away with a disgusted look, his tone icy cold.

“You stay honestly in the room and wait for me to question you after I have drawn and quartered this thief!”

After saying that, he ignored Yin Xiao'e's reaction, and immediately turned and walked out of the room.

“Take the thief out!”

“Yes, Master!”

Several Guo family martial artists immediately took out ropes, tied Chu Xianping, who had a blank expression, firmly, and soon followed Guo Yunjin and disappeared into the darkness.

The night wind was a little cool, but the surrounding torches were a little hot.

Chu Xianping was dragged along to the backyard of the Guo mansion like a walking corpse, his brain always blank.

He knew what he was about to face, but he didn't care at all.

Just let me die, anyway, my parents died early, and there is nothing to worry about in this world.

“Clang~”

The martial artist next to him drew his sword and slashed towards him.

“...”

Chu Xianping smiled bitterly and closed his eyes, but he did not wait for the expected pain.

On the contrary...

The broken rope scattered on the ground with a “whirr”, and Guo Yunjin's nervous voice rang in his ears.

“Sir Chu! Are you alright?!”

“This humble one was also ordered to do this, please don't take it to heart!”

“Or, ordered?”

The sudden reversal of the situation made Chu Xianping suddenly open his eyes. He looked at Guo Yunjin, who had a flattering smile on his face, and subconsciously asked:

“Ordered by whom?”

“It's Young Master Wei...”

Guo Yunjin rubbed his hands restrainedly, and then told him what happened during the day.

It was quiet all around, and after listening, Chu Xianping only felt that his mind was in a mess.

“Are you saying that this was all intentionally designed by Young Master Wei?”

“Yes, presumably Sir Chu, the reason why you came to my mansion tonight was also because Young Master Wei asked you to come, right.”

“...”

Chu Xianping did not answer.

He was a smart man to begin with. Although he didn't react just now when the incident happened suddenly, he now roughly knew what was going on.

Wei Changtian must have guessed that Yin Xiao'e was not sincere towards him, so he deliberately used this method to test her.

“Young Master Wei... did he say anything else?”

“He did, Young Master Wei also instructed me...”

Guo Yunjin took a deep look at Chu Xianping and lowered his voice:

“How Yin Xiao'e should be dealt with... is entirely up to you, sir.”
