Yun Shen curled his lips and chuckled, his face full of strategizing.

From the very beginning, he had murderous intentions towards Shi Li.

He had no intention of letting Shi Li go back alive... He used himself as bait to lure Shi Li to the mixed place of Xicheng, and then attacked Shi Li.

He had made thorough preparations long ago. Once Shi Li entered the West City, the men in gray first provoked Shi Li and the others, and then took advantage of Shi Li's unpreparedness and sprinkled poisonous powder.

When they were weak, they quickly killed them one by one. After killing Shi Li, the men in gray deliberately created chaos, blaming it on a manslaughter, and then wiped out all evidence and clues.

Even if Xiao Tingyan arrived and searched the entire West City, he might not be able to find any clues about the murder of Shi Li.

In this dead end, Yun Shen could be said to have done it flawlessly.

He took Dong Ke to watch this scene just to let her know that no one could stop what he wanted to do. He wanted her to see the reality clearly and let her accept her fate as soon as possible and move forward side by side with him.

Yun Shen turned to look at Dong Ke: "Ake...you think, should Shi Li die happily, or should he die after being tortured?"

Dong Ke pursed his lips and looked at Yun Shen with a deep look: "What if I told you that I wanted you to let Shi Li go?"

Yun Shen's face darkened, and he suppressed the smile on his lips.

He got a little closer to Dong Ke, his eyes fixed on her brows.

"You should know that I can't agree to it."

"Shi Li will die today..."

Dong Ke curled his lips and smiled coldly.

A tear fell from the corner of his eye.

"What if I don't want him to die?"

"A'ke, don't embarrass me." Yun Shen frowned, his eyes full of displeasure, and his whole body exuded an extremely cold aura.

Dong Ke raised his hand and stroked the outline of Yun Shen's facial features little by little with his long and slender fingers.

"Ah Shen, I used to love you very much. But the Ah Shen I loved seems to have died a long time ago. Now you make me feel extremely strange."

Yun Shen's heart couldn't help but skip a beat.

He frowned and looked at Dong Ke: "I don't like to hear these words. Can you stop saying things I don't like to hear and deliberately making me angry?"

"A'ke, since you love me so much, why can't you tolerate everything I do now and move forward side by side with me? I haven't changed, I'm still the same Yun Shen who loves you as before. I don't know, where are you? What are you worrying about?"

Dong Ke raised his head and took a deep breath.

There was a bit of sadness in her eyes: "I once thought about trying to think about the problem from your perspective, and also trying to consider that no matter what, I would stand by your side and support any decision you make."

"I really worked hard to get closer to you. I even broke my own thoughts and conscience. I didn't care about anything I wanted. I gave up everything and stayed with you forever. Yun Shen, I I love you, I really, really love you. However, this love cannot make me destroy my conscience as a human being... I am tortured and condemned by my conscience day and night."

Yun Shen's heart couldn't help but sting a little.

He was about to raise his hand to touch the tears streaming down her cheeks, when suddenly a flash of light flashed in his eyes.

The next moment, the cold and sharp hairpin was pressed hard against his throat.

"A Shen, I'm sorry. In order to prevent you from making a more complete mistake, I have to do this." Dong Ke held the hairpin against his neck.

Yun Shen's eyes were full of shock, and he looked at Dong Ke in disbelief.

"Ake, what are you doing? Do you want to kill me?"

Dong Ke's eyes were extremely red. She bit her lip tightly and said word by word: "Let Shi Li go and let them go..."

Yun Shen was so angry that he gritted his teeth and roared: "What if I don't let you go?"

Dong Ke held the hairpin and stabbed forward hard. The sharp hairpin pierced his skin, and bright red blood slowly flowed out.

Yun Shen felt a pain in his neck, and he looked at Dong Ke in shock: "You actually want to kill me for other men?"

Dong Ke endured the severe pain in his heart and almost didn't dare to look into Yun Shen's eyes... Her breathing was extremely disordered, and her palms were shaking uncontrollably.

She said with a trembling voice and choked with sobs: "You forced me to this point. Please let Shi Li go quickly."

Yun Shen smiled brightly, raised his hand and grabbed Dong Ke's wrist.

There was a hint of scarlet in his eyes.

The whole person's mood was almost about to collapse.

He spoke in a hoarse voice: "Dong Ke, I never thought that one day you would kill me for other men. No matter how you hurt me, I can't bear to touch you." Finger, how can you bear to be so cruel to me?"

"No matter what I have done, my love for you is true. Why do you treat me like this, trample and destroy my feelings like this? Do you know how much my heart hurts now? That hurts, and this The pain in my neck is a hundred times more painful."

The scene of meeting Dong Ke for the first time flashed through his mind over and over again.

The delicate and heroic girl wears a moon-white robe, and her long black hair is erected with a white jade crown. Such a simple man's attire shows his heroic and heroic appearance.

She kicked down the bully and protected the weak and orphaned girl.

That look of perseverance and fearlessness was something that he could not forget even after many years. Every time he thought of it, his heart was filled with excitement...

Later, he specifically inquired about her identity. The next day, he persuaded his mother, invited a matchmaker, and came to propose marriage.

Unexpectedly, she stayed behind closed doors. She threatened that she did not want to get married and have children, but only wanted to be like a man, go to the battlefield, shed blood and protect her family and country.

If she must marry, she will only marry a general with great military exploits.

Because of her remarks, Yun Shen was even more impressed by her, and his heart was even more excited.

Later, with his passionate heart, he followed his father to the border to fight against the Liang army. The battle was very fierce, and both sides suffered heavy casualties. He almost died on the battlefield and died a heroic sacrifice.

When he couldn't hold it anymore, her face flashed in his mind. She said that if she wanted to marry, she would marry this brave and fearless young hero in the world.

Because of her words, even though half of his life was on the verge of death, he finally turned defeat into victory and killed the generals of the Liang Kingdom, thus achieving a great victory.

In that battle, he became famous and truly became a young general who showed his talents.

On the day he returned to Kyoto in triumph, the people opened the city gates and warmly welcomed their young hero.

He sat upright on his tall horse and looked for her everywhere.

I thought that she would not come to welcome his triumph.

Unexpectedly, he saw the beautiful face he wanted to see most in the crowd.
