Chapter 1494: Chapter 1493: Should I just kill her?

The long-silent Feng Yexuan suddenly gritted his teeth and slammed his palm onto the nearby table.

The table shattered instantly.

Dust filled the air!

Chu Qianli watched his exposed muscles, every fiber was tense and trembling.

How unwilling he must be to believe that his own mother would treat him so ruthlessly?

"You don’t suspect I’m lying to you?" This was somewhat unexpected for her.

If she had known earlier that Feng Yexuan would trust her unconditionally, she should have told him everything sooner.

It turned out, there was never a lack of trust between them, only a disbelief in their own importance in each other’s hearts.

"Fen Ling used hypnotism on me; I knew that long ago, but I was sure that mere hypnotism could never have such an effect."

"So, you’ve long suspected you were being controlled by some other power unknown to you?"

"Yes." But he couldn’t find the answer.

These days, apart from being cared for by Hua Rong and Fen Ling when injured, and having intimate contact with Chu Qianli,

there was truly no one else who could have secretly harmed him.

Chu Qianli said nothing more, placing a hand on his shoulder and gently pressing down.

Feng Yexuan’s tense muscles, under her silent comfort, slowly relaxed.

Only his heart still seemed stabbed through, in pain!

"She didn’t mean to hurt you, just wanted to control you."

However, after saying this, even Chu Qianli found it laughable.

To want to control him, does that not count as wanting to hurt him?

As a mother, shouldn’t she wholeheartedly love her child?

If she had a child, she would surely give her life to protect them.

Why then, could Hua Rong be so heartless?

Feng Yexuan’s palm tightened and then relaxed, and then unconsciously tightened once again.

He also thought that regardless of how his mother hit him or scolded him, at least, she wouldn’t truly harm him.

Never did he expect that within his own body, there was a poison placed by his mother.

"Heh..." Feng Yexuan suddenly let out a laugh.

A hoarse laugh, laden with unspeakable sorrow and despair.

A trace of bitterness swept through Chu Qianli’s heart.

She had told herself not to feel for him anymore.

Yet seeing him so sad and desperate made her want to embrace him, to comfort him, even tell him not to be sad, because at least, he still had her.

He still had her...

But in the end, she only lowered her eyes and continued applying medicine to his bruises.

Any superfluous words were habitually swallowed back by her.

Having been hurt countless times, she no longer dared to easily reveal her emotions to anyone.

Especially in front of him.

She could never see through this man.

At this moment, he might be vulnerable enough to want to lean into her arms for comfort and protection.

The next moment, would he become the most ruthless and callous executioner, severing the emotional ties between them himself?

"No matter what, this Poisonous Insect Blood doesn’t currently cause you much harm, perhaps you can endure it for now."

"However, with Fen Ling’s hypnotism and the Poisonous Insect Blood working together, it might truly harm your heart meridian, especially your brain nerves."

Hmm, saying it like this, he might not understand.

Chu Qianli was about to explain, but saw Feng Yexuan furrow his brows, displeased, "No wonder my head hurts every time I see her upset. So, wouldn’t it just be better to kill her?"
