Chapter 393: Just Sitting Together with Ye Qingran Is Fine

"But even if you still can't bear Lin Xueyan being hurt, I won't let her off today!"

Ye Qingran's attitude was very resolute.

He can't bear Lin Xueyan being hurt?

What and what?

"You've misunderstood!"

Fu Hanxiu pressed his lips together, a hint of helplessness in his expression.

She misunderstood?

Fu Hanxiu explained, "Blood is inauspicious; don't touch it anymore."

As he spoke, in Ye Qingran's stunned gaze, Fu Hanxiu gently lifted her hand with his large hand and carefully wiped the bloodstains from it...

Besides the blood on her hand, Fu Hanxiu, as if performing a trick, produced a pristine cloth and erased the bloodstains from the hem of Ye Qingran's skirt!

The scene left everyone staring dumbfounded.

It turned out that Emperor Sovereign's questioning of Ye Qingran's actions wasn't because she wanted to protect Lin Xueyan, but because he thought blood was inauspicious and didn't want Ye Qingran to touch it!

Heavens!

What's with this sudden sweetness?

Not to mention anyone else, even Ye Qingran herself looks utterly bewildered.

So Fu Hanxiu's earlier questioning of her actions wasn't because he couldn't bear Lin Xueyan being bullied by her?

But because he thought blood was inauspicious and didn't want her to touch it?

He even helped her wipe the blood?

Does he know what he's doing?

After regaining her senses, Ye Qingran stepped back, trying to distance herself from Fu Hanxiu.

Even though they already have children, they lack any emotional foundation, so they shouldn't be this ambiguous.

When Lin Xueyan heard Fu Hanxiu say blood is inauspicious, telling Ye Qingran not to touch it, and even gently wiping the blood from her, the scene deeply unsettled her, making her for a moment refuse to believe it was real.

Your Majesty came to save her; how could he wipe Ye Qingran's blood?

"Your Majesty, I am Lin Xueyan, please save me! Ye Qingran knows I'm from the Summit of the Hunt, yet she treats me so cruelly, humiliating me before so many people, as if she never considered the Summit of the Hunt at all!"

She tried to provoke Fu Hanxiu.

But how could Fu Hanxiu possibly be angered by her?

A gaze as cold as ice fell upon Lin Xueyan.

Did Lin Xueyan really think he knew nothing about what she did back then?

If he hadn't disregarded the child's birth mother back then, could Lin Xueyan have lived so comfortably these years?

She must pay a painful price for those past deeds!

"You're such a loser, yet you still have the nerve to claim you're from the Summit of the Hunt?"

Frost and snow seemed to drift in Fu Hanxiu's voice.

Lin Xueyan shivered all over.

Your Majesty, calling her a loser?

She could hardly believe her own ears!

Could it be that Your Majesty knows she was outclassed by Ye Qingran at the palace banquet, bringing disgrace to the Summit of the Hunt?

"Your Majesty, I know I was wrong; from now on I will work hard to become stronger!"

Lin Xueyan wept bitterly; had she not been restrained by Ye Qingran, unable to move, she would have already knelt on the ground, pleading desperately.

The onlookers glanced at Lin Xueyan's appearance with slight astonishment.

Is this still the haughty, lofty Lin Xueyan from earlier?

At this moment, she resembled a prisoner beneath the steps, humble and pitiful; where is the bearing of a Summit of the Hunt's lady master?

Yet she still had the gall to display utter superiority, even despising the Central Region, calling its people lowly inferiors.

In her very bones she is even more despicable!

"Are you unharmed?"

Fu Hanxiu ignored Lin Xueyan; at this moment his eyes were only on Ye Qingran.

Even though he knew she couldn't be hurt, he couldn't help but ask, as if he needed a confirming answer from her mouth to be completely at ease.

"No," Ye Qingran's attitude toward Fu Hanxiu became much more indifferent.

Fu Hanxiu didn't care about Ye Qingran's attitude; at this moment his heart and eyes were filled with her.

Thinking that the woman from six years ago was her, and that they have a pair of sons, filled his heart with immense satisfaction.

It seemed that everything he had pursued in life was just this!

With this thought, the deep affection in Fu Hanxiu's eyes swelled to the point of overflowing!

Seeing this, Lin Xueyan's jealous fire burned wildly in her eyes!

"It must be because of Ye Qingran's beauty!"

Lin Xueyan muttered resentfully in her heart.

Your Majesty's tenderness toward Ye Qingran must be because he was enchanted by this Fox Spirit, immersed in her beauty!

One must admit, Ye Qingran is truly beautiful. Even among the many beauties she has seen in Western Extremity Shengyu, none could surpass Ye Qingran!

Even the saintly maiden of Western Extremity Shengyu, famed for her extraordinary talent and hailed as the Sacred Realm's top beauty, pales by a margin to her!

"Fox Spirit! Back then, I should have cut off your head! To ensure you could never live again!"

At this moment, Lin Xueyan's remorse surged like a tide.

Fu Hanxiu took the dagger belonging to Ye Qingran.

"Are you still going to protect her?"

Ye Qingran's gaze turned cold.

What does it mean that Fu Hanxiu took her dagger?

You won't let her act against Lin Xueyan?

"Don't misunderstand. I promise you, when she publicly admits her past crimes in front of everyone, I will let her experience the pain and despair you once experienced. Then, I will have her... bones crushed and ashes scattered."

Fu Hanxiu spoke slowly in a low voice by Ye Qingran's ear.

His tone was too cold, hiding endless killing intent, making Ye Qingran break out in goosebumps.

Ye Qingran's body stiffened.

Her eyes were filled with disbelief.

As expected, he already knew about the past events.

Since he knows that five years ago, Lin Xueyan and Ye Huanhuan committed those evil acts against her on Broken Soul Abyss, he must also know that Xiao Chen and Xiao Hu are his children, right?

Seeing Ye Qingran's reaction, Fu Hanxiu knew what she was thinking; his Adam's apple rolled, his voice hoarse: "I know all about the past events..."

Ye Qingran's body trembled, then she calmed down.

Forget it, knowing is knowing. Anyway, today is the day the truth comes out.

"Sorry..."

His heart was filled with endless regret and guilt.

If he had always been with her back then, would she not have suffered such a painful past?

"You don't need to apologize to me; I promise you that."

As for the past events, there's no right or wrong; it's just fate playing with us.

What Fu Hanxiu said is also not wrong. Let Lin Xueyan speak her past deeds aloud today.

Good and evil will eventually be repaid!

"Your Majesty, can you let me put my clothes on?"

Lin Xueyan, at this moment, chose to make do. She is now naked, utterly embarrassing, really too ashamed.

Fu Hanxiu, considering his son couldn't always have his eyes covered, gave Fu San a look; Fu San casually tore off a piece of cloth and threw it to Lin Xueyan.

Lin Xueyan looked at that ragged cloth, dirty and ugly, she could only grit her teeth and wrap it around herself, barely able to cover her body.

"Your Majesty, please take your seat!"

The Donglin Emperor seized the moment, inviting Fu Hanxiu to sit on his Dragon Throne.

Fu Hanxiu refused.

"This venerable one, being together with Ye Qingran is fine."

Thus, amidst everyone's envious gazes, Fu Hanxiu sat down in the seat beside Ye Qingran.
