Chapter 1524: Foolish ruler in the way: How many times do you want to be assassinated? (Part 8)

She narrowed her eyes and slowly came forward.

The purple line was already spreading at her wrist and she could feel her breathing becoming faster as her heart began beating faster as well.

“Lin Nan Yi, I will save you.”  Just these short seven words stated her goal.

“Si.”  He pulled open the curtain and looked at the woman in front of him with crossed hands.

The four eyes looked at each other and there was an indescribable emotion in his deep eyes.

Her face was a bit pale and the way her lips were pursed looked pitiful.  Sure enough, with this nation collapsing beauty, it was fine to do anything.

Because she knew that he wouldn’t kill her.

“You don’t need to show this face, didn’t you already achieve your goal?”  He narrowed his cold eyes and there was no warmth in his voice.

He was already destined to die, she didn’t need to use this pale face to make him let down his guard.

In the past, she had many hidden weapons on her, poison needles, daggers, poison powder…...

Why?  Wasn’t it just to take his life?

The times he was injured for her was far less than the times he was harmed by her.

But he still…...wasn’t willing to kill her.

Once upon a time, she had shown this expression again and again, just to make him let down his guard.

He knew, but he still couldn’t stand the way she looked at him.

“Yes, I’ve achieved my goal.”  She took a deep breath as her eyes trembled slightly.

There was a thin mist in the eyes of the person in front of her, as well as a natural domination.  That smooth white face was perfectly carved.

He looked very good, looking even better in person, especially that face that seemed like it was carved of jade.

She really couldn’t imagine that this face, those eyes would be forever closed in a month.

The surrounding air was restrictive which made it hard for her to breathe.

There were beads of sweat on her forehead and the poison in her body attacked bit by bit.

“So you wanted to see if I died?”  He gave a cold laugh.  He slowly came forward and stopped in front of her.  His slender fingers came up and made a graceful arc across her white cheeks before he softly said, “Relax, I’ll die very soon.”

“I……”  She bit her lip.  When she heard Lin Nan Yi’s words, she felt a strange pain in her heart.

It wasn’t because his words were decisive, but rather she felt pain for him.

He bore this kind of pain, knowing that the person beside him had wanted to see him die.

But he still kept her by his side despite the protests of everyone, facing all the times that she wanted to kill him, but still not hurting her.

Clearly knowing that she was using herself as bait to kill him, but he still blocked it for her…...

What kind of emotion was this that could make someone do all this?

He was clearly loved by the people, but he didn’t care about becoming a ‘foolish ruler’ in the eyes of his subjects.

This Lin Nan Yi, he shouldn’t have this kind of an ending.

“I regret it.”  She raised her right hand and took the Heavenly Branch Pill out her sleeve, “This is the antidote, you won’t die if you eat this.”

“He, he……”  He gave a cold laugh as he looked at her.  The hand that was sliding across her face suddenly grabbed her throat and his eyes turned cold, as if they wanted to freeze her.  Looking at her, he said, “You really think this one won’t kill you?”
