Marrying Gold and Jade

"After a day, have you thought about it?"

After dinner, the man took the initiative to break the deadlock.

Lin Yu was still worried about sleeping in the same bed at night, and was unable to react at first, "What?"

Xu Jinxuan was also very patient, his slender Ruifeng eyes moved slightly and settled on her face.

"Punish me."

I have never seen anyone who is so active in asking for punishment.

But it only took a moment for Lin Yu to figure out his intention, and "punishing" him was a compensation for himself.

Then after making the compensation, she would have to go back to being the way she was before.

As it used to be.

The girl secretly clenched her fists and almost wanted to jump up from the chair, screaming and questioning why he had to force her when everything was clearly fine before.

Afterwards, he asked calmly what compensation he wanted.

"I want to kill you."

She spoke very softly, and her voice was trembling slightly. If you didn't listen carefully, you wouldn't be able to hear it clearly.

Xu Jinxuan was sitting opposite her. Hearing this, he raised his chin and asked, "How do you kill him?"

Lin Yu suspected that he had heard it wrong.

She just didn't want to reconcile with him, so she said this on purpose to embarrass him. But he seemed to be crazier than she thought, and he immediately asked her what she wanted to do.

"With a knife," Lin Yu looked into his python-like cold eyes and said almost bewitchedly, "I want to kill you with a knife."

Just like what I have experienced before.

The man looked deep in thought, and Lin Yu stared at him.

After a moment he stood up, walked out of the palace, and returned soon after.

With a clang, a dagger and a guard's sword were thrown on the table.

Lin Yu inevitably shrank his shoulders following the commotion.

"Take your pick."

Madman, he is a madman!

Fear and anger intertwined, Lin Yu's lips lost their color and he trembled uncontrollably.

"You can only punish me once, so think it over before you do it."

"Xu Jinxuan!"

Lin Yu couldn't stand it any longer, she covered her ears and yelled, "Do you think I don't dare? Do you think I can't do it to you!"

"I'm telling you, you owe me a life. You owed me one anyway!"

She closed her eyes, clearly unable to see him, but her eyes were still sore. Tears wet her thick eyelashes, and her thin, delicate skin turned a strange red.

After saying this, she felt her heart beating along with her eardrums, and her head felt heavy, as if she would fall down at any time.

On the other hand, the man opposite him, despite the excitement in his eyes, still fiddled with the blade slowly.

He finally chose the short dagger, which was lighter and would allow her to get closer when using it.

His thin finger bones lifted the short blade to the base of her thumb, and Xu Jinxuan pulled her wrist over and handed the handle into her hand.

"Why don't you believe it? You're very brave." Close to the top of her head, Xu Jinxuan could sense the commotion in her blood, even worse than when the poison attacked her twenty years ago.

"Besides, dying in your hands is not a bad outcome."

He was standing, and Lin Yu was still sitting in the armchair, so close that she almost nestled in his arms.

The handle of the knife felt very cold in her palm, and the place she was facing was exactly where she had been stabbed for the first time.

Ribs down, belly button to the right.

The tears stopped flowing. Her eyes were red as she listened to the man above her head saying, "You only have one chance, Lin Yu."

"No one outside the palace will come in until tomorrow morning."

The string called reason was constantly pulled and plucked. Lin Yu was shaking all over. He opened his lips to cry, but no sound came out.

"If you don't do anything yet, are you going to let me go?"

"what--"

The girl suddenly broke through her hoarse voice, screamed, and sent the blade into that familiar position.

The hilt of the knife left her hand and she did not dare to open her eyes for a long time.

Xu Jinxuan was very calm, and even breathed a sigh of relief, as if he had been dead and the knife had brought him back to life.

I lowered my eyelids to look at her and found that her reaction was much more serious than mine. She was so thin and was shaking so violently. She looked really pitiful.

But he still asked her: "Is this all right?"

Blood gushed out along the blade, and the bloody smell spread between the two of them. Soon the brocade around his waist was soaked in red, layer upon layer, like an enchanting red peony.

When the man pulled out the blade, the silver-white iron sheet was still dripping with blood. He simply handed it back to Lin Yu, pinched her jaw, and touched his heart with his other hand.

"Stab here, and I'll probably die."

He was teaching her how to kill him.

"The punishment is not over yet, you can continue."

Of course Lin Yu knew that being stabbed in the heart would lead to death. That’s how she died.

But she held the knife, looked up at the place where his fingertips were pointing, her face pale, and really thought "what if Xu Jinxuan died".

If Xu Jinxuan died...

The dagger fell to the ground, and she finally couldn't hold on any longer. Seeing the bleeding hole on the man's waist, tears kept flowing, and she raised her trembling hands to try to stop them.

She can't do that. She doesn't dare to kill anyone. She is afraid of people dying.

If someone died in her hands, she would feel guilty for the rest of her life and would live in a nightmare forever.

Even if Xu Jinxuan owed her a life, and even if she would not be at fault for doing so, she just couldn't do it.

"No, I can't..."

Her chin was stained with blood, and as it was washed by tears, the light red teardrops were about to fall.

Even though she was crying so hard that she was about to pass out at any moment, she still raised her hands and placed them on the man's waist, which was of no avail.

Xu Jinxuan sighed softly.

Then he asked, “Is it over?”

The girl first shook her head, then nodded, having already lost her direction.

Half an hour later.

Lin Yu's eyes were empty as she looked at the man in front of her with his shirt open and layers of gauze covering his deep red wounds.

That was a tattoo she had done, and now it's wrapped up.

The experience of being guided to kill him just now was like a possession of another's body, her soul leaving her body. Now when she recalls it, she feels that it was not her doing, it was not real.

"You did this on purpose," she said in a cold voice, "With the love poison here, if you die, I will die too."

Although based on the situation just now, she had completely forgotten about the matter.

Xu Jinxuan kept bandaging and tying the knot, but something flashed through his drooping brows. He deliberately avoided the main point and said, "You also know this."

Lin Yu took a deep breath and felt a chill in his throat. He completely lost the strength to face him.

Madman, madman, madman.

She knew how crazy he was and that she would never be his match no matter what!

The man covered his shirt, revealing the shallow ravine on his chest. "Wash your hands and take a bath."

This sound seemed to be a reminder that even if she had stabbed him with a knife the moment before, she would still have to sleep in the same bed with him the next moment.

Lin Yu raised his eyes with great effort and found that there was something strange on his face. The middle part of his right eyebrow was broken.

It must have been this morning when she smashed it with a porcelain jar of ointment.

"why?"

She was terrified, collapsed, calmed down, and vented her anger, and finally asked him: "Xu Jinxuan, why did you break the contract?"

When asked this question, the man's nonchalant expression tensed up for a moment.
