Chapter 91: Dancing on the Grave

~8 min read 1,426 words

"Grateful, naturally grateful."

Liu Shi said sincerely.

She lowered her head slightly. "Only by living can there be hope, only by living can there be a future, isn't it?"

"But you and Li Dahong, between you..."

"Chen Tou thought wrong. Although my husband is a rough person, he treats me with sincerity. I am not very smart, but I can still distinguish between sincerity and falsehood. He held me in the palm of his hand, but I caused his death; I deserve to die!"

Liu Shi suppressed her emotions, lying on the archway and crying, crying like a pear blossom with rain. What a weak water fairy waiting to be destroyed. It made people have the perverted idea of wanting to ravage her to death.

Too evil!

This woman was a completely different type from Liu Wan Shi. However, Liu Shi was easier to make people lose their reason; she had a very strange incomplete beauty. It made people always want to watch her cry sadly, watch her suffer harm, and then they could experience great satisfaction.

Maybe the Crown Prince also felt this point in her, and Li Dahong might have died because of this.

Her beauty was weak, was something people wanted to break, was evil, was the deepest dark desire of human beings.

Chen Guanlou closed his eyes tightly, took a deep breath, recited the "Ascension Record" mantra, and finally suppressed the restlessness in his heart.

He kindly reminded her, "In the future, try not to cry in front of people, especially in front of men."

His words, placed in this era, were truly presumptuous and bold, completely over the line.

Liu Shi was clearly stunned on the spot, and after a while, she woke up. Her ears were red. She hurriedly lowered her head, too shy to look at people, her voice like a mosquito. "Thank you, Chen Tou, for the reminder. I, I..."

"What are your plans for the future?"

"I don't know."

"Try to contact the Crown Prince! He should, perhaps, have been paying attention to you all along. Don't contact the people on the Crown Prince's wife's side."

Liu Shi bit her lip, miserable. "Can't go back. The Emperor can't tolerate me."

"The Crown Prince can at least settle you outside the palace, so you can live without worry. You don't want to be bullied by a bunch of stinking men, right? Only the Crown Prince can protect you."

"But, I am no longer worthy to serve by the Crown Prince's side." Liu Shi was soft, helpless, making people feel heartache.

"Then let the Crown Prince arrange a future for you. Whether it's marrying, becoming a nun, or setting up a household independently, these are just a word for the Crown Prince."

Chen Guanlou took a deep breath, telling himself to be calm, "Don't reveal your background in the future. Go to sleep early. Goodbye!"

He turned and left.

Liu Shi called him back. "Chen Tou, you are a good person! My husband also mentioned you, saying you have a method in doing things. If you encounter something, he would rather ask you for help than find those pig friends and dog friends."

Chen Guanlou looked back at the other party. "Good people don't live long; don't be a good person."

Liu Shi was stunned; she didn't understand. Clearly a good person, but he advised others not to be a good person, and said good people don't live long. Wasn't he cursing himself.

Chen Guanlou always believed that he couldn't see through this woman, Liu Shi. If she was a silly white sweet, but she could live safely, although she fell into trouble, Li Dahong held her in the palm of his hand, and she never suffered or suffered, and she escaped safely. This was what kind of luck, what kind of wisdom!

If she was a woman who was deep in heart and good at calculating, then she was too good at acting, completely integrated into the role of silly white sweet, without causing anyone's suspicion, and made people willing to share worries and run errands for her, fearing that she would suffer a little bit of grievance. Li Dahong, for her sake, didn't hesitate to drive his own son away, and didn't even want his life for her.

Chen Guanlou abandoned all desires, jumped out of the circle, and looked at this woman from God's perspective. She was beautiful beyond belief, her luck was good beyond belief, and her heart was deep beyond belief. The Liu family all died, and her brother was also suffering in the mine thousands of miles away. Only she, as always, enjoyed the wealth and glory, and was still missed by the Crown Prince to this day.

Regarding the Crown Prince missing Liu Shi, it was all speculation. However, Chen Guanlou firmly believed that his speculation was in line with the facts. The Crown Prince's wife wanted to humiliate Liu Shi, but it wasn't worth killing Li Dahong. As long as Li Dahong lived for one day, Liu Shi could only be the status of a prison guard's wife. This status was how low and cheap it was; in the eyes of the noble, it was absolutely the best way to humiliate people.

Only the Crown Prince couldn't tolerate Liu Shi continuing to stay by Li Dahong's side, and still in the status of husband and wife. Li Dahong enjoyed the beauty, and died under the peony flower; he didn't die unjustly.

Liu Shi was too soft, too charming, making people unable to control the release of the deepest and darkest desires in human nature, destroying and torturing her, watching her incomplete and painful beauty!

Chen Guanlou made up his mind that he must stay away from this dangerous woman.

Guarding the fire basin, under the firelight, the face was bright and dark.

Lu Datou yawned. "Why did you go for so long? Did you find any thieves?"

Chen Guanlou shook his head, sat on the stool, and didn't speak.

"How about playing cards! The night is long and hard to endure. Li Dahong likes excitement, he definitely won't mind."

"Playing cards in front of the mourning hall, you can think of it." Chen Guanlou complained.

"What's this. Li Dahong is not a particular person; he would be happy to see us playing cards, maybe he would even stand by and buy a horse."

Lu Datou became more and more excited, wishing he could set up the card table immediately. He had already started to take out silver to see how much money he brought today.

Chen Guanlou teased him, "Not afraid? Before, you looked like you were scared to death, how come you have the guts to play cards now."

"I figured it out. Even if Li Dahong becomes a ghost, he is a ghost who loves playing cards. I cater to his preferences, why should I be afraid of him. He should be grateful to me for letting him touch a card after death."

Suddenly, a gust of wind blew, the firelight alternated, and the shadow on the wall also changed.

Lu Datou screamed, "What did I say, Li Dahong is crazy with joy, this is sending a signal to me. Come, come, come, let's push cards. Ten coins a round, no cheating!"

No one echoed him.

Lu Datou:...

He could only play alone silently, and he could play with great relish.

Old Zhang Tou seemed to be full of worries, and smoking wasn't fragrant. Chen Guanlou threw paper money into the fire basin and said, "Relax, nothing happened."

Old Zhang Tou looked at him deeply. "Grace comes from above?"

Chen Guanlou nodded, but didn't speak.

The only confused person on the scene was Lu Datou. "What riddle are you playing? It turns out I'm the only fool, right."

"You rotten gambler, what do you know about so much. If you lose, you don't have a door on your mouth, and you say everything." Old Zhang Tou scolded fiercely.

Lu Datou was not convinced. "Old Zhang, you old vegetable helper, do you want to move two moves."

"Just you?" Old Zhang Tou looked disdainful, his eyes extremely contemptuous. "With your fat body, you can't walk a move under my hand. If my knife comes out, you have to see blood. If it were Chen Tou, maybe he could really pass a few moves."

"Uncle Zhang is too high on me." Chen Guanlou said modestly.

"Chen Tou don't be modest, I know you are a practitioner." ===== CHAPTER 92 =====
