Chapter 616: You Should Be Begging Me

Chapter 616 You Should Be Begging Me Just as she thought she would be swallowed by the dark tides, she suddenly felt the grip on her loosen and she could breathe. She sucked in air greedily.Holding her in the water, Lu Fenying said coldly, "Mo Qian'er, don't be disobedient. I have plenty of ways to deal with you."

Qian'er slowly opened her bright eyes, but where they usually glittered like stars, they were now full of hatred.

"I'm not afraid..." Her voice wasn't loud, but it was firm.

Was she really not afraid? Of course she was. She had been meek her whole life and tortured by Lu Fenying for many years. She couldn't become as unyielding as Gu Bailu overnight.

But she knew that she had to pretend to be unafraid, because the more scared she was, the more unrestrained Lu Fenying would become.

"Who gave you the courage to be unafraid?" Lu Fenying was about to submerge her in the water again.

Qian'er said casually, "The baby does. If you torture me, the baby won't live, and if the baby doesn't live, neither will Su Muwei."

Lu Fenying stopped. He was stunned for a moment.

Was this really Mo Qian'er, his slave?

Had someone changed her core?

How dare she use the baby to threaten him? How dare she curse Muwei to not live?

"You're getting really bold. You really think that Princess Zi can help you? If I want to kill her, it won't take but an instant." Lu Fenying felt that she had become like this because of Gu Bailu.

The determination to kill Gu Bailu had burnt in his heart more than once.

Qian'er's heart became heavy. No. She couldn't let him kill Princess Zi.

"Your Highness, you need to understand one thing. For years, both you and I have been mistaken. I shouldn't live in fear at your command; instead, you should be begging me, because I'm the only one who can keep Su Muwei alive!"

Qian'er stated the fact firmly.

It was only recently that she understood this. Of course, it was also based on the premise that she wasn't afraid of death and Lu Fenying didn't dare let her die.

She never realized it before, but she did now.

Besides, she was carrying a baby, who was a bargaining chip as well.

She had to make Lu Fenying realize that too.

"What did you say? You want me to beg you?" Lu Fenying couldn't believe his ears. He thought that Mo Qian'er must've been bespelled.

Why else would Mo Qian'er, who was as obedient and gentle as a rabbit, say anything as wild as that?

"Yes, I'm saying that you should be begging me, and I shouldn't be living in your shadow in fear. Your Highness, you should know that if I die or have an accident, it'll do Su Muwei no good. If I die, she'll die with me. At least, that will be the case, until the baby is born."

Of course Lu Fenying knew that. It was also why he had been so fervent in hunting Mo Qian'er down.

In the six months after Mo Qian'er escaped, Su Muwei had gotten sicker and sicker. She could barely get up, and she almost fell into a coma.

He had always known that Mo Qian'er was the source of Su Muwei's medicine, and that there was hope for Su Muwei as long as she was here.

But he never thought that Mo Qian'er would threaten him with this.

To him, Qian'er belonged to him, like the money in his residence, which he could use however he saw fit. How could she possibly defy him?

But Mo Qian'er had indeed resisted, and she was quite right.

If she died, there was no way that Muwei would survive.
