Chapter 703 - You cant die! (2/2)

Tan Xiu looked at her hands which were shivering and looked around. She doesn't want to serve him, not after what he did to her family and other people. She won't let him touch her with his hands which were covered in other people's blood.

She silently walked to the well which was in the side yard near her, letting the maids think that she was taking a walk to calm her nerves. They didn't even follow her since she can't go anywhere and they have orders to not force her to do anything. She was a woman loved by Yang Hanying, so they couldn't do anything to her and let her roam freely unless she causes trouble.

Tan Xiu walked to the well and looked at the glistening water and clenched her fist seeing its deepness.

She smiled bitterly and climbed up the well and looked at the water which looked cold as ice. She smiled and mumbled, ” It looks quite cold.”

Her hands shivered but before she could jump, she heard someone shouting, ” Tan Xiu, what the hell are you doing?”

She turned around and saw Yang Hanying looking at her in horror. He glared at her and made his way to her in long strides.

However, he stopped when he readied to jump, ”Tan Xiu, don't be stupid. Come down. Are you trying to die just to save your chastity? Do you think it can fix everything? Stop your stupid actions and come down. I promise to treat you well.” he said while trying to coax her.

Tan Xiu scoffed and said in a low voice, ” Treat me well? Who are you to treat me well? You killed my whole family, those innocent people died just to satiate your bloodthirst and you're saying you did all this for me?”

” Well, if it is true, then it's more important for me to do this. I want to see how you fail to get your prize of victory even after going through all the efforts. Yang Hanying, you claimed that you liked me but you destroyed my whole family and...even me. That's not how you love someone. Yuan Song loved me and sacrificed his life to save me and the country. You're just a monster who doesn't love anyone but himself.”

She smiled and said, ” I prefer to die hundred times than being destroyed by you. You will never get me, not in this life, nor the others. Goodbye.” she jumped into the well, leaving everyone in shock.

Yang Hanying ran behind her to save her and by the time the guard brought her up from the well, she was soaked in water, her face had turned ashen and her body was as cold as ice.

Mao Li also came out to see the drama which had caused quite a commotion. She watched from afar as Yang Hanying held Tan Xiu in his arms and was patting her face, worriedly.

” Tsk. Stupid girl. She didn't need to go this far. She was about to die in a few hours already.” she sighed. The bowl of porridge she has fed her had the poisonous herbs mixed in it. She doesn't want Yang Hanying to touch this girl and forget about her importance just because of this new girl. She wanted to keep her greatness in the palace and if Tan Xiu became his favorite consort later, she might lose her position as the Empress forever.

How can she let her do this? But before she could die by that poison, she took her life herself. She could have saved from the poison but after drowning in water, it increases its effect.

'The biggest enemy of her life was that girl herself.' she shook her head tiredly.

She sighed and saw Yang Hanying looking worried for the first time. What was so special about this girl anyway?

” Tan Xiu...Tan Xiu….” Yang Hanying patted her face as he tried to wake her up, but she didn't respond to his words.

” You can't die. You're my possession. You can't die without my permission. Wake up, stop your play and wake up.” he patted her face with his trembling hands.

He felt scared for the first time. Her bubbly smiley face came to her mind when he saw her for the first time. He wanted her to smile like that to him but she never did. All she did was frown at him. Was it so hard to love him? If she had loved him from the start, nothing would have happened.
