Chapter 354: I’d love to see her suffer and die
Shen Peiyi had never seen what Mo Boyuan was capable of. In other words, she was never really close with him.
At this instance, Shen Peiyi had thought that her fantasies were becoming real. She was agitated. She was not expecting it when he took her by her throat and choked her.
It was a vicious attack. Shen Peiyi was making a gagging noise. Her pupils were extremely dilated, and her airways had been blocked—she couldn’t breathe. It was as if the blood on her face had frozen, and her face was purple. She’d sensed death was near.
However, it was just a moment before all her fears had suddenly vanquished in Shen Peiyi’s eyes. There was excitement in her voice, “Do it. Choke me to death. Since I can’t have you, I might as well die in your hands. How wonderful!”
If not for these words, Mo Boyuan might really have killed this revolting woman in front of him. He had recalled what Jiang Tingxu had said once—it was unnecessary to commit crime for those who weren’t worthy of him.
Just before Shen Peiyi was about to suffocate, Mo Boyuan had let go of his hand. His face was filled with disgust, and he even took a few steps back.
“Cough, cough, cough.” Shen Peiyi was wheezing, gasping for air before she’d recovered. “Heh, it was to this extent that you didn’t want to have any connections with me, eh? What a vain hope to be dying in your hands! She’s lucky to have you.”
Mo Boyuan really didn’t have any intention to stay any longer. “Since you had once saved my wife, you shall stay here and rot for the rest of your life!”
If it wasn’t for her saving Jiang Tingxu, how could she have gone through such little suffering? Even if she didn’t die, she should at least have her skin peeled off of her.
Seeing Mo Boyuan turning around and leaving the room, Shen Peiyi had panicked. “Wait! I didn’t do it to save her. No, everything I did was for you! It was you!”
His footsteps didn’t come to a halt. Shen Peiyi shrieked. “Mo Boyuan, you have no idea how many people around you had wanted both of you to split up and how many had wanted her dead!”
The word ‘dead’ was now taboo for Mo Boyuan. He turned around. “What did you say?”
Shen Peiyi had heaved a sigh of relief. “I said, not counting the people around me, a lot had wanted to kill her. Mo Boyuan, how many times do you think you can protect her? What’s so good about her any way that you would risk your life to keep her safe? She’s nothing but a homeless, unloved orphan and parasite who lives under someone else’s roof, isn’t she?”
And the Mo family—so powerful, so influential—she did not comprehend why everyone in the Mo family had to be so nice to that orphan. If Jiang Tingxu were one of the daughters of the families in their circle, the resentment towards her wouldn’t be so strong. On what grounds did she deserve all this? There were so many daughters from the aristocratic families, yet they had all lost to an orphan?
Mo Boyuan curled his lips coldly. “A parasite living under someone else’s roof? Is this my wife you are talking about? Then you might not know of this—as long as I’m here, my wife won’t be without a family! No matter the past, the present, or the future, I’ll always protect her.”
“Speaking of which, you just mentioned that there are many people who are hostile towards my wife—who are they exactly?”
Mo Boyuan came to see Shen Peiyi on that day because he had wanted to extract information from her. Now, it had seemed that his trip wasn’t in vain.
Shen Peiyi smirked. “Mo Boyuan, I’d love to see her suffer and die, so why would I tell you? Hah! Haha! Hahahahaha!” She was laughing hysterically.
At this moment, a killing intent rose in Mo Boyuan’s heart once again. But he had swallowed it up. “You don’t have a say in this. I’ll make you speak.”
Once she’d stepped into this place, she’d have to spit the truth out even if they had to rip her throat out.
