I'm the villain in the book

Page 588

Plead for me, help me and Chu Xianping...

"..."

He silently stood up and walked to the window.

Looking at the lonely gazebo in the distance, Li Zimu's expression was a bit complicated.

To be honest, the current development of the situation has actually deviated from her expectations.

She originally thought that Tang Chen would never be able to resist her "sincerity" and would definitely stay in Daning to compete with Chu Xianping.

And in this way, Tang Chen could only work for Wei Changtian.

Then, after Wei Changtian completely controlled Tang Chen, he would find an excuse to get out of this relationship full of falsehood and deceit, and finally marry Chu Xianping...

The plan was good, and nothing went wrong in its execution.

But Li Zimu never expected that Tang Chen would make such a decision.

Knowing his "intention", he actually chose to quit.

Of course Li Zimu could tell that Tang Chen was lying this morning, and he could even tell that the latter had really fallen in love with him.

Because of this, she became a little hesitant at this moment, wondering whether she should continue to lie.

Except for her dead parents and Wei Changtian who saved her life twice, no one has treated her so well.

And if it is considered that Wei Changtian's life-saving act was more of a "casual action", then Tang Chen's sincerity to Li Zimu is even more commendable.

Thinking about it this way, the words she once said to Tang Chen were not false.

"Young Master Tang, do you know that no one has ever cared about me like this before..."

Yes.

This is the first time Li Zimu has experienced what it feels like to be truly cared about.

To be honest, she never got this feeling from Chu Xianping.

"Ugh......"

Sighing slightly, Li Zimu slowly looked away.

She didn't know what Tang Chen was talking about with Wei Changtian now, and whether the latter persuaded Tang Chen not to give up on him so easily.

In the son's mind, he should do so.

Li Zimu thought this in his heart, and then inevitably began to guess what choice Tang Chen would make.

If Tang Chen finally listened to the young master's words, then the situation would return to the "right track" he designed before.

And if Tang Chen still insisted on giving up, then what else should he do?

Is it to "let go" him, do nothing, and let him go back to sleep?

Or do you just keep doing it, continue to deceive, and use all means to drag Tang Chen into this hopeless quagmire?

From the perspective of Wei Changtian, and even the interests of the entire Daning and Dashu, Li Zimu should undoubtedly choose the latter.

And if it's from the heart...

At this moment, Li Zimu wanted to give up.

She didn't want to lie to Tang Chen again, to the only man who really cared about her and could give up so much for herself.

Turning his head to glance at a handkerchief on the table, a rare look of pain appeared in his eyes.

"Li, Miss Li..."

"I-I just washed this veil yesterday, if you don't mind it, you can use it..."

Tang Chen's embarrassment and bewilderment appeared in his mind, and Li Zimu suddenly smiled.

But soon there was some bitterness in the smile.

She walked to the table, took the gray-black handkerchief in her hand, and clenched it tightly.

After a while, she put down the handkerchief, turned around and found some needles and threads from a small wooden box.

Holding the silver needle, Li Zimu hesitated for a long time.

But in the end she pricked her fingertips and squeezed out a few drops of bright red blood.

The blood dripped on the handkerchief, and immediately smeared a dark red ball.

After finishing this unexplained matter, Li Zimu sat at the table, chose a piece of white silk thread, and began to embroider something on the handkerchief stitch by stitch.

Judging from the general outline, she should be embroidering characters, but the specific content is still unknown.

A few strands of blue silk swayed slightly on the side of the face, and each stitch was very slow and careful.

The blood on the tip of the needle had long since disappeared, but a few drops of liquid fell on the handkerchief as I embroidered.

But this time it's not blood, it's...

"Young Master Tang..."

"Yes, sorry..."

"..."

......

"Mr. Wei, thank you for being willing to tell me so much."

Liangzhou Prefecture Government, after being silent for nearly a hundred breaths, Tang Chen finally raised his head.

He looked at Wei Changtian and said softly:

"You are right. If you really like someone, you should try your best to fight for it."

"In this way, I was indeed a coward before."

Ok?

Changed your mind?

Wei Changtian was taken aback for a moment, thinking that his "persuasion" had worked.

However, before he could say a few words of "encouragement", Tang Chen shook his head again, and continued:

"However, young master, have you ever thought about it, what if two men fell in love with a woman at the same time?"

"And if this woman also likes these two men at the same time, what should she do?"

"I can fight, and Mr. Chu can fight, but Miss Li can't marry two husbands after all."

"In the end, no matter who she chooses, she must not be very happy in her heart."

"I don't want Miss Li to be in trouble."

"So I'd rather be this coward."

"..."

The fragrance of tea wafted up, and there was a moment of silence in the room.

I don't want her to be in trouble, so I'd rather be a coward.

Although Wei Changtian was still complaining about Tang Chen's "self-indulgent sentimentality" in his heart when he heard half of it, but when he finished listening to the last sentence, this disdain disappeared inexplicably.

Looking at Tang Chen with a candid expression, he was silent for a moment, and then asked:

"How do you know that the relationship between Li Zimu and Chu Xianping is true?"

"I tested it with mind reading this morning."

Tang Chen replied without any concealment: "I don't know what Mr. Chu thinks about Miss Li, but Mrs. Li is really sincere to Mr. Chu."

"Is it?"

Wei Changtian squinted his eyes: "Why should I trust you?"

"Young master, don't you want to know how I found out the spies in the hundred-odd army?"

Tang Chen took a deep breath, and replied seriously, "I can tell you right now, Young Master."

"I want to know, but..."

Wei Changtian chuckled lightly and said, "What's the relationship between these two?"

"Does it matter if it's related or not?"

Tang Chen also smiled: "Young Master Wei, I will tell you what you want to know."

"You make Miss Li and Mr. Chu perfect."

"It's just a deal."

"It's true..."

Wei Changtian looked at Tang Chen and nodded meaningfully: "It's just that this deal is not good for you."

"Hahaha, Mr. Wei, since I have become a coward..."

Talking about this, Tang Chen no longer had the nervousness and restraint before, but just smiled very calmly:

"So what if I'm a fool again."

Chapter 677 Buy One Get One Free

Guanxin has a special supernatural power, which can check the hostility of all creatures within a certain range to you, and its effect depends on the user's realm.It cannot be purchased, it can only be obtained through specified methods

Once the mind-observing technique is cast, a heart-shaped mist will appear above the heads of all creatures within a certain range.

The whiter the fog, the friendlier the person's attitude towards the caster.

The redder the mist, the more hostile this person's attitude towards the caster.

It turned out that Tang Chen relied on this supernatural power to quickly screen out some suspicious people from among 80 people, and then use mind reading skills to further confirm, and finally found more than a hundred secret agents in the army overnight.

"..."

After glancing at Tang Chen and closing the system interface, Wei Changtian didn't speak immediately.

"Guanxin" can find the same type in the system, but "Reading Mind" does not. This undoubtedly means that if he kills Tang Chen, the special supernatural power he will get will most likely be the former.

Ok

Although it's not as awesome as "mind reading", it's okay.

At any rate, it has a wider range of effects and does not require any conditions to use it. Its applicability must be stronger than "mind reading".

After all, for Wei Changtian, most of the time, he doesn't need to judge the truth or falsehood of someone's words, he just needs to know whether the other party is an enemy or a friend.

Anyway, as long as it is an enemy, there will be nothing wrong with cutting it with the knife.

Good

Nodding in his heart, Wei Changtian was quite satisfied with the effect of "Guanxin".

Of course, he also understood that if he wanted to obtain this supernatural power, he had to kill Tang Chen himself.

Killing is not difficult, but now is not the time.

After all, as a hostage in exchange, if Tang Chen died now, then Chu Xianping might not be able to come back, and the peace agreement reached by the two countries would be voided immediately.

Besides, there is no guarantee that Li Zimu will have any backup.

So wait, no rush.

"Young Master Tang."

Thinking of this, Wei Changtian finally said unhurriedly

"Since you are so straightforward, then I won't be a mother-in-law anymore."

"From today onwards, I will not care about the matter between Li Zimu and Chu Xianping. The premise is that Li Zimu will not be ashamed of Brother Chu."

"I don't know if you will be satisfied"

"Thank you sir"

Clasping his hands together, Tang Chen bowed very solemnly to Wei Changtian.

"I believe that the young master is definitely not the kind of person who does not keep his promises, and he will definitely do what he says."
