The Peerless Beauty Stuck With Me

They didn't dare to make a sound. Under Tang Rao's pressure, they eventually agreed not to oppose Tang Rao anymore.

"Senior brother, I don't want to go back. Tang Rao insists we deliver a message. If we go back now, who knows whether we'll even survive, let alone deliver the message."

Tang Shimei didn't want to die. How young was she? She lived better than most people, and dying so early meant she hadn't enjoyed many things, which wasn't worth it.

"If you want to die, stay here. I'm going back to see your father anyway."

In the face of life and death, Yan Moyi didn't place much value on dignity, which was of little use.

"A wise man knows when to retreat. Your man is so sensible, yet you're not as smart as him. With someone like you, no wonder you're always being deceived."

Didn't Tang Shimei like Yan Moyi? Didn't Yan Moyi deceive Tang Shimei? Their relationship hadn't deteriorated to a certain extent. Tang Shimei would never turn against him unless she truly had a disagreement with Yan Moyi. Then the question became, how could Tang Rao maximize their conflicts?

This would rely on his silver tongue acting as a troublemaker, saying whatever needed to be said chaotically.

"Yan Moyi, I used to think you were just an irresponsible man; you were pretty good otherwise. But now, I think you're a complete scumbag. It's bad enough that you've done nothing, and you still want to push me in front of my dad. I truly love you, yet you always want to see me dead!"

Tang Shimei had cried in front of Yan Moyi before, but never this heartbrokenly. Even Tang Rao felt pained watching her.

"Junior Sister, Senior Brother has no choice either. I'm doing this to protect myself. You've experienced all kinds of wealth and luxury. Even if you die now, it's worth it. Senior Brother grew up poor, and my entire family relies on me to make something of myself and give them a good life. Can't you pity Senior Brother and go back with me?"

The main culprit this time was Yan Moyi. He dared to suggest this because, unlike Tang Shimei, he benefitted from male privilege.

Do you know what male privilege means? It means in matters between men and women, if a man makes a mistake, it's not considered a mistake, while if a woman doesn't make a mistake, it's still considered one.

What men find trivial becomes a huge insult when applied to women.

Just think, in such a sacred place as the Divine Realm, people's thoughts are sometimes more sordid than on Blue Star.

"By the way, who knows if you guys are just acting in front of me? Take this elixir pill before you leave. If you come back, you naturally get the antidote. If you run away halfway, you two can just wait to drop dead."

Tang Rao was truly ruthless. Before they even made up their minds, the elixir pill was already in their mouths.

There was nothing left to argue about. Whether they returned or not, their fate now was to return.

"It's all your fault! If not for you, I wouldn't be here today! If not for you, I wouldn't have been abandoned by my family. Leave! I never want to see you again!"

Tang Shimei shoved Yan Moyi, trying to push him away, but no matter how hard she tried, Yan Moyi's legs were like they were filled with lead — he just wouldn't move.

"You wretched woman! If you dare push me again, believe me, I'll take your life right here and now!"

Yan Moyi's patience was not as good as Tang Rao's. While Tang Rao could stay calm and watch the drama, Yan Moyi's heart was already raging from Tang Shimei's antics.

"Take my life? Go ahead! Whether it's in my father's hands or yours, I'm dead anyway. If I die by your hands, I'll become an evil ghost, haunting you for the rest of your life. Even in death, I won't let you go."

Oh dear, just last night the two of them were like lovebirds, acting all affectionate. How long has it been? Not even twenty-four hours? This so-called love stands no test whatsoever.

"Neither of you should take the other's life. Go back to find the one behind you; otherwise, neither of you will survive."

Tang Rao spoke the most important point.

The two of them standing there suddenly came to their senses. They were so caught up arguing with each other that they completely forgot about their current predicament.

"Are you guaranteeing that as long as we go back, you'll save our lives and give us the antidote to this elixir pill?"

Yan Moyi was terrified. Faced with the options of possibly dying or certainly dying, only a fool would choose the latter.

"Do you think you have a choice? You can only choose to trust me."

Tang Rao haughtily sneered at Yan Moyi. In the past, Yan Moyi might have retaliated, but now, he knew Tang Rao spoke the truth — he had no other options.

"Let's go. If you don't move now, I'll kill you!"

Yan Moyi gripped Tang Shimei's neck. With just a little more pressure, her life wouldn't be hers anymore.

Backed to a cliff, Tang Shimei knew Yan Moyi was serious this time. Just one hand would determine her fate — she would rather die at home than become a lonely ghost in the wild.

"I'll go, I'll go back with you!"

Tang Shimei cursed Yan Moyi a million times in her heart, but in the end, she could only compromise, becoming someone she never wanted to be.

Whether it was the elixir's effect or their mindset, both Tang Shimei and Yan Moyi had small red bumps appear on their hands, itching and hurting, barely keeping them from rubbing themselves on the ground.

"We've agreed to go back. Why are you still treating us this way?"

Yan Moyi accused Tang Rao of breaking his word. Tang Rao merely made a gesture for silence: "You're mistaken. I only promised you the antidote, but never said you wouldn't suffer along the way. If you're smart, you'll return quickly and complete the task. If you're not, and delay on the road, you'll suffer."

No wonder Tang Rao drew no lines for them and was at ease letting them return. It turns out the elixir had already explained his terms.

What else could they say? Yan Moyi summoned his mount, reluctantly taking Tang Shimei with him: "We're going now. I hope you keep your promise!"

Tang Rao smiled as he bid farewell to these two, who looked death in the face. It was the first time Tang Shimei and the others saw Tang Rao's kind expression, and it would be the last.

When Tang Shimei and the others returned, the entire Tang Family's gates were shut tight. Yan Moyi was torn to shreds, and if they delayed any longer on the road, he believed the Tang Family Patriarch wouldn't kill him, but he would choose to end it himself.

"Master, save me! Master, save me!"
