Pin Shanhe

Chapter 68 A Hard Slap

No!

Don't come in!

She couldn't even imagine what it would be like if they actually saw her; she would never be able to face anyone again.

But the wicked man didn't stop at all; instead, he intensified his actions, slithering down the neck.

Behind him was the coffin containing Xiao Xuanjin's body.

Behind them were the guards who were preparing to search the premises.

Overwhelmed by fear and shame, she dared not even breathe, unsure how to react, and could only passively endure his passion.

The footsteps grew closer; it seemed those people had arrived near the memorial tablet.

"I think we should go outside. It doesn't look like anyone's here, so as not to disturb the spirit of the prince and upset him in the afterlife."

"How can that be? Our mission is to protect the Xuanwang Mansion and not give the enemy any opportunity. Since we've already come this far, let's take another look!"

Shen Fu closed her eyes in despair, just as she thought that tonight would surely ruin her reputation completely...

Suddenly, a cat darted out from the corner and jumped out of the window.

"Oh, it's just a cat! I knew there wouldn't be anyone there, what a fuss!"

"Let's go, let's go! There are still so many places in the Prince's Palace waiting for us to patrol!"

The footsteps finally faded away, and Shen Fu was covered in a cold sweat, her heart pounding wildly.

Overwhelmed with fear, she could no longer contain herself and raised her hand fiercely.

"Snapped!"

His handsome, jade-like face was visibly marked with fingerprints.

This was the first time she had ever hit him!

He had intended to do so before, but he had never succeeded in stopping him.

This time, whether he was caught off guard or did it on purpose, he showed no intention of dodging.

Shen Fu trembled with rage, her voice shaking with extreme fury, "How could you... how could you humiliate me like this?"

The man remained silent, simply gazing intently at her.

Did he think that everything he had gone to great lengths for was just a humiliation?

This is clearly not the result he wanted!

Watching her emotions suddenly break down, tears streaming down her face, as if she were releasing all the bitterness that had been building up over the past few days.

Because of the deep-seated hatred from her past life, she watched her entire family be wiped out, without even a complete corpse left behind.

After her rebirth, she didn't even have time to calm down and plan carefully before she had to immediately seek revenge and fight.

Caught between a web of power struggles and conspiracies, she was besieged on all sides, yet she could only grit her teeth and move forward.

She thought that meeting the Xuan King would be her salvation and refuge, but she never expected that he would die like this.

Her innocence was also taken away by a stranger.

All the blows rushed to her mind, and she could no longer control herself, reaching out to desperately pound his chest.

"Why are you bullying me? Why are you treating me like this?"

The man let her hit him, then sighed helplessly, "I didn't bully you, I just wanted to be good to you."

Be good to her?

Is it to constantly provoke her with words, bringing her endless humiliation and fear?

The thought that they had almost been caught by the guards made her feel extremely embarrassed.

"Get out of here! I don't want to see you!"

A sudden, dull pain shot through the man's heart. "Do you really hate me that much?"

He just wanted her to forget Xiao Xuanjin as soon as possible and focus her attention on him.

But this was also his first time dealing with matters of the heart, and he had no experience whatsoever, so he acted solely on his instincts.

Perhaps they were too eager for quick results and used the wrong methods, which backfired.

"Yes, I hate you. In my eyes, you will never be as good as Xiao Xuanjin. He is a hero who stands tall and upright, while you are nothing but a despicable person who hides in the gutter and does dirty things! The thing I regret most is... meeting you!"

As Shen Fu spoke, she became more and more agitated. Exhausted both physically and mentally for days, her taut nerves finally snapped.

She could no longer bear the blow; her vision suddenly went black, and a strong wave of dizziness washed over her.

The man quickly caught her swaying body and watched her fall into his arms.

Shen Fu's eyes were tightly closed, her face was as pale as paper, and her face was streaked with tears...

Every tear was an accusation against him.

He regretted it!

Why did things turn out this way?

If he could do it all over again, he would never make that choice again.

……

When Shen Fu woke up, it was already the morning of the next day.

She was stunned for a long time, as if trying to confirm whether everything that happened last night was a dream or reality.

Luo Luo pushed the door open and came in. Seeing her in a daze, she looked worried.

"Miss, what time did you come back last night? I took the chicken soup to the funeral hall to look for you, but you weren't there. I thought you had disappeared again like that day, and I was so scared that I looked everywhere for you. Finally, I found you sleeping in your room."

Shen Fu's heart sank slightly.

Last night, the mourning hall was dark and desolate.

And the man's passionate kiss...

She was overwhelmed with shame and panic, and finally fainted due to emotional distress.

She remembers saying a lot of hurtful things and even slapping him.

Of course, he brought this on himself!

Who told him to be so outrageous, to do such a thing to her in a place like a funeral hall?

What happened next?

Did he bring her back?

Although she was unconscious at the time, she still had a sliver of consciousness remaining.

I vaguely remember hearing a sigh...

It seemed as if someone was apologizing to her and saying that if this was what she wanted, then so be it.

How could someone like him apologize?

He always resorts to threats or bribes; when has he ever considered her feelings?

As she wished, that probably meant disappearing from her world and never bothering her again.

This whole thing was a mistake from the start. He was just a passerby who accidentally wandered into her life, and there should never have been any interaction between them.

This is the best outcome!

Seeing the worried look in Luo Luo's eyes, she forced a smile.

"Yes, I was too tired last night and wanted to come back and rest. I forgot to tell you."

Luo Luo finally breathed a sigh of relief; it was good that nothing happened.

Since the return of the Xuan King's coffin to the capital, the young lady has not had a moment's rest.

One must arrange the funeral, deal with relatives and friends who come to pay their respects, and suppress one's own grief.

She has already endured so much, which is already quite remarkable. I must take good care of Miss.

At this moment, Yun Dai walked in carrying a bowl of tonic.

Shen Fu was somewhat surprised. Why hadn't she left yet?

She initially came to the Xuanwang Mansion because of the aphrodisiac incense, searching for the real culprit behind it all.

Now that the truth has been uncovered and her "mission" has been completed, there is no need for her to stay here any longer.

As if reading her mind, Yun Dai chuckled lightly: "You two have a falling out, but surely it shouldn't involve innocent people? Surely there's a place for me in this vast Xuanwang Mansion?"
