Chapter 189: Lin Jingsheng Understood All

Translator: Storm in a Teacup

Lin Jingsheng stared at them in disbelief, not noticing the handkerchief tightly held in her hand had fallen off on the ground.

Her face was a little pale, and she was praying that things weren’t the way she thought they were.

At this moment, Ke Ruan stood up after finishing wrapping up. He felt dizzy due to squatting for a little too long. He could have kept his balance, but Si Yuhan was quicker. He stood up first and put his arms around Ke Ruan’s waist.

“Are you alright?”

Ke Ruan shook his head. When the black shadow in his eyes finally faded away, he said, “It’s nothing. I’ve been squatting for too long. That’s all. It’s normal.”

She saw it.

This time, she saw it clearly.

She saw clearly Si Yuhan’s concern for Ke Ruan. Even if it was just because Ke Ruan felt a little dizzy for squatting for a while, his eyes were filled with worries and concerns.

She saw clearly the love and indulgence he showed when Ke Ruan whispered to him.

How could this be?

Lin Jingsheng opened her mouth in disbelief. She had always thought that the reason why Si Yuhan made Ke Ruan his empress were that he wanted to humiliate him.

She had thought that Si Yuhan wanted to torture Ke Ruan by separating him and his sister apart.

She had thought from the very beginning that he made Ke Ruan a thorn in people’s flesh because he wanted to hurt him by using others’ hand.

Yes, she had thought so.

With his current status and capability, Si Yuhan could torture anyone in any possible way. Why bother to humiliate Ke Ruan by making him the empress? And after all those times he talked back at Si Yuhan and pisses Si Yuhan off, Ke Ruan could stay safe and sound.

Even his sister was conferred the title of Princess Changle.

She couldn’t even figure out why she hadn’t seen this through for so long. It was all for love.

Si Yuhan loved Ke Ruan.

Great!

Why hadn’t she ever thought about the possibility?

What about Ke Ruan? Did he love Si Yuhan back?

Lin Jingsheng subconsciously looked at Ke Ruan. He never seemed to have realized that Si Yuhan had overindulged him time and time again. He had developed a tendency of dependence and trust.

Perhaps he did love him. He just didn’t realize that.

Lin Jingsheng’s gaze froze for a moment and was soon replaced by determination.

That young man of hers would never like Si Yuhan. Never! He could only belong to her.

When she looked up again, her eyes met Si Yuhan’s, which were dark like ink.

Like a bottomless vortex that would pull people into hell.

Full of extreme indifference.

Full of bone-chilling cruelty.

Lin Jingsheng was so frightened that her body trembled. Si Yuhan treated people like they were dead except for Ke Ruan.

Once you became the target of a man like him, the only way to escape was to die.

No, being the target, you could only be a ghost at the mercy of him even after you died.

Lin Jingsheng felt a chill rising from her feet towards her whole body, like she had dropped into the extremely cold winter where she could feel nothing but a bone-piercing pain.

Ke Ruan was too worried about Si Yuhan, so he completely forgot his fear towards him. Now he was acting based on the instincts of a doctor. He was sure to be afraid when he realized the situation.

He looked up at Si Yuhan quietly. Good. There was no sign of anger.

Thankfully, he didn’t seem as furious as he was before. Recently, Ke Ruan almost thought that the male lead was suffering from schizophrenia. For a moment, he was sad and angry; for the next, he was happy and even kind.

He almost felt sympathy for Qi Cheng. He didn’t even know if it was a blessing or a curse for serving a master like Si Yuhan.

He looked up and asked, “Let’s go out and have a talk.”
