I've been bullied and humiliated for thirteen years; when I wake up, I'll be bloodthirsty.

Chapter 104 I'm not falling for your tricks

The moment Lu Yangyang's voice rang out, Sheng Junyao bent down.

The knife in Lu Yangyang's hand grazed his shoulder and plunged straight into the chest of the man in black. The man in black's eyes widened, and he collapsed to the ground with a thud.

Sheng Junyao straightened up, quickly checked all the fallen men in black with his spear, and after confirming that none had escaped, he strode over to Lu Yangyang and asked with concern, "Are you alright?"

Lu Yangyang shook her head.

Sheng Junyao laughed out loud: "Yangyang, you're amazing! I'm so grateful to you for saving me just now!"

Lu Yangyang was a little embarrassed. "With the young master's reaction speed, he would be fine even without me."

She thought to herself, Sheng Junyao is indeed a veteran of the battlefield. He has almost no tricks up his sleeve and knows how to assess the situation, unlike her who simply plays where he feels comfortable.

Sheng Junyao reached out and gently rubbed her head: "I heard you call me big brother just now, so you can't change your address."

Lu Yangyang touched her nose; she had acted rashly in a moment of panic.

However, I won't force myself to acknowledge Sheng Junyao as my elder brother.

She wasn't one to be sentimental; she looked up, her eyes sparkling, and called out to him, "Big Brother!"

Sheng Junyao laughed heartily.

"I'll go check on my mother and have someone tidy up the place," Sheng Junyao said.

Lu Yangyang nodded, thought for a moment, took a step forward and leaned closer to him, whispering, "I suspect these people are after me, and the carriage blocking the road ahead is also suspicious."

Sheng Junyao nodded: "I also think that person is suspicious. You go back to the carriage first, and I will find an opportunity to interrogate him. I will report the assassination to the Dali Temple and investigate it thoroughly together. You may have to be careful afterward, but don't be afraid. They failed this time, and they won't dare to make any moves in the capital again. The Imperial Guards of the court are stationed nearby at Huguo Temple, so it's very safe."

"I'm not afraid. You want me dead? Not so easy!" Lu Yangyang said confidently.

Although her martial arts skills are rudimentary, she has survived in the mountains with wild beasts since childhood, so she is not afraid of any assassination attempts!

Seeing that she was unaffected, Sheng Junyao was completely relieved. He patted her head again and left to deal with other matters.

Lu Yangyang watched him leave, raised her hand to flex her wrist, and turned to look at Sheng Yunzhu, who was standing by the carriage, on the verge of tears. Sheng Junyi was standing beside her, comforting her.

Her maid was supporting her.

Yuanxing, on the other side, looked anxiously in her direction.

Lu Yangyang walked towards Sheng Yunzhu.

"Miss, are you alright?" Yuanxing quickly ran to Lu Yangyang's side.

"I am fine."

Lu Yangyang responded to her and walked to Sheng Yunzhu's side.

Seeing that her clothes were covered in blood, and even her face was splattered with several drops, Sheng Junyi couldn't help but ask, "Are you alright?"

The concern was undisguised.

Lu Yangyang didn't say a word, her eyes were fixed on Sheng Yunzhu, and suddenly she raised her hand and slapped Sheng Yunzhu across the face.

The slap was hard; blood immediately seeped from Sheng Yunzhu's mouth. She swayed, looking at Lu Yangyang in disbelief, her voice trembling, "What, what are you doing?"

Without saying a word, Lu Yangyang slapped her again.

Sheng Junyi then realized what was happening and hurriedly grabbed her wrist: "What are you doing?"

"What am I doing?" Lu Yangyang sneered. "I'd like to ask her what she's doing. Why did she drag Yuanxing in front of her? Do you think I can't see her?"

"Sheng Yunzhu, who gave you the audacity to bully my people!"

I slapped you twice because you're shameless!

"Lu Yangyang!" Sheng Junyi shouted, "No matter how much you dislike Zhuzhu, you should at least be reasonable. She's just a maid. Besides, what could Zhuzhu possibly think of in such a dangerous situation? She's just a weak woman with no strength to even kill a chicken. Are you going to watch her die?"

"Then she should just die. She's incapable of living, so isn't it her own fault for dying?" Lu Yangyang snorted.

"Waaah, Yangyang, do you hate me that much?" Sheng Yunzhu's face was swollen on one side, her body swayed as if she was about to faint, and her eyes were full of tears.

"Yeah, is this the first day you've found out?" Lu Yangyang rolled her eyes.

"You!" Sheng Junyi gritted her teeth, "Apologize to Zhuzhu!"

“Apologize? Apologize for what?” Lu Yangyang pulled Yuanxing over: “If you want me to apologize, fine, make her apologize to Yuanxing first, say that she shouldn’t have been cowardly and grabbed Yuanxing to block her.”

"Waaaaah~" Sheng Yunzhu collapsed into Sheng Junyi's arms, sobbing.

Sheng Junyi had a headache.

Lu Yangyang shouted loudly, "Apologize! Can't you hear me?"

"Lu Yangyang! That's enough!" Sheng Junyi couldn't watch her make a scene any longer. Seeing that Sheng Yunzhu was about to faint, he had no choice but to bend down, pick her up, and walk towards the carriage behind.

As soon as Sheng Yunzhu was put into the carriage, the voice of Old Madam Li scolded, "Go and teach that jinx some manners! Give her a lesson in family discipline! She can even lay a hand on her own sisters, all for a maid! How could our Duke Sheng's mansion produce such a wicked child! What a tragedy!"

With red eyes, Yuanxing carefully tugged at Lu Yangyang's sleeve and whispered, "I'm sorry, Miss, I... I... you, you mustn't upset the old lady because of me. I'm not worth it."

“If I say you deserve it, then you deserve it.” Lu Yangyang patted her shoulder. “Get in the car and get ready first.”

Then he released her, strode to Madam Li's carriage, and raised his voice: "Sheng Yunzhu, listen to me, if you don't apologize to Yuanxing, don't show your face in front of me from now on. I'll beat you every time you show up. I have plenty of time to slowly wear you down."

"Outrageous! Outrageous!" Old Madam Li shouted from inside the carriage, "Go, slap him! Slap him!"

"Grandmother, Grandmother, please don't be angry," Sheng Yunzhu said, her voice trembling with tears. She forced herself to cry, climbed out of the carriage, and looked at Lu Yangyang with tearful eyes. "Yangyang, I know you hate me. Fine, I apologize. I shouldn't have hidden behind your maid. It was my fault. Please don't be angry. If you want to target me, then target me. Please stop making a scene. Grandmother isn't well, you..."

"Don't try to be sarcastic with me, I'm not buying it." Lu Yangyang glanced at her disdainfully as if she were something dirty, then turned and left.

“Oh, right,” Lu Yangyang took two steps, then turned around and said to Sheng Yunzhu, “Don’t be so shameless next time. I know I can hit people, but I can’t guarantee I won’t get pissed off and smash your brains out. That wouldn’t look good. After all, our feud has only just begun. Don’t die too quickly, it won’t be fun.”

"I'm planning to slowly torture you to death."
