I Woke the Sick and Disabled Prince on Our Wedding Night-Chapter 16

Suffering Together

Naturally, the commotion here couldn’t escape Pei Qian’s eyes. Therefore, when Lu Ze and Lin Suisui returned to the edge of the camp, Pei Qian and a group of guards had already been waiting by the camp for a long time.

Just like what Pei Qian often did in the tent, he was sitting in front of the bonfire, holding his usual short dagger and slowly cutting the yellow mutton on the grill.

Seeing Lu Ze and the others, he only raised his hand slightly and instructed indifferently, “Sit.”

Across from Pei Qian’s seat, there were two folding stools that had been prepared long ago. It was obvious that they had expected them to come, so they had been prepared in advance!

Lu Ze reached out to support Lin Suisui and sent her to sit by the bonfire. Then, he slowly sat down beside Lin Suisui.

“I didn’t expect an ordinary villager like you to be so skilled!” Pei Qian said slowly as he gestured for Qian He to bring the plate of meat he had sliced over to Lin Suisui.

“You flatter me, but those people are all thugs. I’ve also learned a few martial arts moves from my father and brothers since I was young. I’ve always relied on hunting to survive in my hometown, so I’m a little more agile than others.”

Lu Ze lowered his eyes slightly and replied in a low voice.

From his behavior, he didn’t look like a murderer who had just killed five people alone.

“No matter what, it’s a fact that you killed people! According to the rules, I should feed you to the wolves like those people who caused trouble previously!

However, I’ve always cherished talent. I’m willing to give you a way out!

The reason you were so ruthless was because those people wanted to attack the young lady beside you! In that case, it wasn’t an exaggeration to say that she was the culprit!

“Therefore, as long as you kill this scourge, not only will I forgive you, but I will also allow you to serve me from now on. How about that?!”

As soon as Pei Qian said this, Lu Ze didn’t react, but Lin Suisui almost lost her composure and jumped up from her seat. However, when she thought of the identity of the person opposite her, Lin Suisui suppressed her anger and turned to look at Lu Ze, who was sitting beside her in panic. She looked like a little sheep that was about to be abandoned.

“Why? Is this decision difficult?!” Pei Qian looked up slightly and his smile became more and more malicious. “Ruthlessness is the mark of a truly great man. Besides, I think this little girl doesn’t have a powerful family background. She looks ordinary. When you become famous in the future, will you have to be afraid of not having a wife and concubines?!”

“I’m just a village hunter. I killed someone today because those people insulted my wife!

If I saw that my wife had been defiled but still turned a blind eye to it and didn’t seek justice for her, I wouldn’t be considered a husband. I wouldn’t even be considered a human!

“Lord, you have many talents around you. I don’t think you don’t want a beast who kills his wife for glory?!”

Lu Ze didn’t let Pei Qian urge him a third time. He looked up calmly and looked at Pei Qian. He rejected the request.

“Even if I want you to die next?!” Pei Qian wasn’t too surprised by Lu Ze’s rejection. He just put down the dagger in his hand regretfully and took the handkerchief Qian He handed over. He slowly wiped his slender fingers. “Don’t you think it’s a pity?!”

“I heard that you’re the only one left in your family. Is it worth it to make your family go extinct for a woman?!”

“Even if we go extinct, it’s better than losing my conscience and living in this world in shame!” Lu Ze didn’t compromise at all and replied straightforwardly.

Seeing that Lu Ze couldn’t be persuaded, Pei Qian paused and looked at Lin Suisui, who was sitting at the side. At this moment, she was no longer worried and frightened. Her eyes, which had never moved away from her husband, were filled with gratitude and admiration. Her joy was almost overflowing!

This made Pei Qian feel a little uncomfortable, but soon, the discomfort disappeared.

“What about you? Are you touched now that your husband didn’t give up on you for his future?! Do you really think that what he’s doing now is a good thing for you?!

Have you ever wondered if he will regret today’s decision when your lives become unsustainable in the future?!

If he regretted it at that time, you would be the best scapegoat to bear his anger and dissatisfaction!

At that time, you’ll be in eternal hell. You’ll be better off dead!”

It had to be said that Pei Qian was really a sadist!

Lin Suisui couldn’t help but criticize him inwardly. He looked glorious, but in fact, there seemed to be no sunlight in his heart. No matter what he looked at, he seemed to only see the dark side of the entire matter!

However, Lin Suisui knew that she couldn’t express anything at this moment.

She was silent for a long time before turning to look at Pei Qian calmly. “I believe in my husband. He’s not the kind of person you’re talking about!

Along the way, we had all escaped death.

If not for my husband protecting me, I would have died hundreds of times! 𝙛𝚛𝙚ewe𝗯𝓃𝗼ѵ𝚎Ɩ.𝒄ｏ𝐦

Therefore, no matter what choice he made today, I wouldn’t blame him. Besides, who knew what would happen in the future?!

My husband said that we went to the northern region together to seek a way out. As long as my husband and I are united and hardworking, we won’t starve to death!

I’m not afraid!”

Pei Qian laughed this time. He rocked back and forth as if he had heard a huge joke. He only stopped when tears fell.

He stood up and threw away the handkerchief in his hand. He looked at Lu Ze and Lin Suisui with a smile. “Alright, I’ll wait and see. I want to see how long you two can share happiness and bitterness for!”

After saying that, he didn’t stay any longer. He turned around and left with his group.

After looking at the backs of Pei Qian and the others, Lin Suisui lowered her head and looked at the plate filled with roasted meat that the follower had forcefully stuffed into her hands. It had to be said that this person was a little awkward, but his knife skills were really good!

The thickness of these meat slices was almost the same. He was even more precise than if he had used a ruler!

“Pei Qian is now in charge of the prison.” Lu Ze saw her staring at the plate in her hand and leaned over at the right time. He almost whispered in her ear, “It’s said that he prefers to carry out the punishment himself.”

“…” Lin Suisui immediately felt that the plate of meat in her hand wasn’t tasty anymore.
