Cruel Vows

Chapter 17

She had no choice but to face the challenge. She lifted her head, looked into Ye Zimo's profound eyes, and said firmly, 'Yes, Mr. Ye! I promise to complete the task!' 'Let her pass!' Ye Zimo ordered the butler. The butler spoke into his earpiece, 'Xia Yihan will be at the door soon, let her pass. Mr. Ye said, if she can drive Yi Bing away, then let her come back. If not, don't let her in.' Ye Zimo's face showed no expression, as if he did not oppose the butler's words, truly leaving no way back this time. 'Mr. Ye, I would like to borrow something!' 'Speak!' After Xia Yihan mentioned what she wanted to borrow, everyone gasped, even the butler's eyebrows unconsciously furrowed. Fang Lina, Zhao Tianai, and Sun Mengmeng revealed schadenfreude smiles after their surprise, while Jiu Jiu and Liu Xiaojiao looked solemn. Only Ye Zimo still had an extremely indifferent face, with no change in expression. 'Butler, go get it for her!' he said indifferently. The butler acknowledged and secretly felt relieved; this time, it was not his fault. The heavy iron door opened, and Xia Yihan stepped out slowly, standing in front of the widely known beautiful woman, hands behind her back, sizing her up. The goddess Yi Bing looked at Xia Yihan with a proud expression and asked arrogantly, 'A maid, right? Did the Crown Prince send you to invite me in?'

Although she felt that she couldn't compare to the woman before her in terms of beauty, she had fame, and men liked famous women, so she clearly still had an advantage in front of this plain woman. Xia Yihan smiled slightly and asked her, 'Do you think the Crown Prince will invite you in? Does he like you?' 'Of course he does, we are so harmonious, how could he not like me?' Yi Bing was a skilled actress, and although she wasn't confident, there was still a hint of truth in her words. 'Then why did he make you stand here in the sun and not invite you in?' Xia Yihan asked indifferently, her tone was light, but it hit Yi Bing's sore spot precisely. 'You!' She exclaimed 'you,' then arrogantly tilted her chin up and said, 'Even if the Crown Prince doesn't like me that much, so what? Don't tell me he would like you!' 'Of course not.' Xia Yihan smiled again, her calm and composed demeanor made the charming Yi Bing feel somewhat inferior in front of her. 'Then you...' Yi Bing's words were cut off halfway when she suddenly saw Xia Yihan's expression change drastically, the sudden shift made her a bit puzzled. Then, she saw Xia Yihan's hand suddenly move from behind to in front of her, a shiny dagger clutched in her hand, emitting a bright and dazzling light under the sun. Her gaze became sharp, staring straight into Yi Bing's eyes, and she said emphatically, 'He may not like me, but I like him! I love him! I am willing to do anything for him!'

After speaking, she raised the knife and without hesitation, drew it across her wrist. Xia Yihan's transformation was too sudden, Yi Bing was almost scared stiff, instinctively taking two or three steps back before she could stammer out, 'What are you doing?' Blood was already dripping down Xia Yihan's wrist, drop by drop. Ignoring the pain in her wrist, she still stared intently at Yi Bing, saying fiercely, 'I will absolutely not allow any woman to get close to the Crown Prince. If you don't leave now, I will...' Seeing Xia Yihan approaching her, Yi Bing felt that she would surely be stabbed just asCrazily stab her。 SheStill walking towards her,Yibing's face turned pale with fear。 She said in a flurry of voices:“I'll go!I'll go!I'll go!I won't come again in the future!”,Speaking of it,Already running towards her sports car with weak legs, as if fleeing for her life。 Yibing was in a panic,I only felt safe after running back to the car。 Some were unwilling to give up the Crown Prince so easily, so after fastening her seatbelt, she still looked out of the car window at the entrance twice more. Xia Yihan swung the knife a couple of times and chased after her sedan. As she was about to reach her car door, Yi Bing, frightened, urged the driver to drive quickly. She watched the car speed away, leaving dust in its wake, and couldn't help but think, after all, Yi Bing was once Ye Zimo's woman, right? Could it be that having been together once, there really could be no feelings at all? It seems that being his woman is really not a good thing.

Yi Bing was sent away by her, and if she could forget that cruel and heartless man from now on, it would be her good fortune. Xia Yi Han didn't tell her that she actually liked the role of the queen she played very much, calm and composed, with a great sense of grace. Only when she couldn't see the shadow of that car anymore did Xia Yi Han turn around, the wound on her wrist at least two centimeters long still bleeding, the pain unbearable. She bit her lip, enduring the pain, and said softly to Zhang Feng standing at the door: 'Please open the door, you saw it, Yi Bing has left.' Zhang Feng had been frightened by the scene just now, and if it weren't for the butler's orders not to intervene in any affairs between women outside, he might have gone up to stop Xia Yi Han earlier. At this moment, he felt a kind of awe for this woman, really ruthless, even he, a man, couldn't have hit himself so hard. The pain at her wrist intensified under the direct sunlight, Xiao Jun, it really hurts. That time you took a knife for me was much worse than this, and you said it didn't hurt, you really can lie. Her nose felt a bit sour, tears swirled in her eyes, and then she swallowed them back. When she returned to the hall, Ye Zi Mo was sitting on the sofa, looking down at the newspaper in his hand as if nothing had happened. Xia Yi Han walked all the way to him, blood dripping all the way. 'Mr. Ye, she's gone.'

Xia Yihan stood still and spoke softly. It was then that Ye Zimo put down the newspaper and indifferently swept his gaze over her face and upper body, pausing briefly on her wrist. The shocking wound made Ye Zimo's heart tighten, yet his expression remained as indifferent as ever, his lips pressed firmly shut, silent. What kind of person or what kind of matter could drive her to be so ruthless? Hai Zhixuan? Did she love Hai Zhixuan? Was she willing to be a pawn for him? 'Ah, Yihan, you're bleeding! Did you try to commit suicide by cutting your wrist? That's so scary! This could be fatal!' Seeing Xia Yihan's wrist with such a serious injury, Jiu Jiu couldn't care less about anything else and rushed over in a few quick steps. Jiu Jiu grabbed Xia Yihan's hand, tears streaming down in urgency. 'Yihan, you need to get bandaged, you have to go to the hospital! Mr. Ye, please look, she needs emergency treatment.' Ye Zimo had already shifted his gaze to Xia Yihan's calm and composed face. Her eyes were even calmer, seemingly unresentful of his difficulty, as if she felt nothing at all, which was even more infuriating. His complexion was colder than usual, and his tone was even colder, devoid of any warmth. 'Do not bandage! Go clean the wound and change into a fresh set of clothes, then immediately follow me out!' 'Mr. Ye! Please, it's dangerous for her like this.' Jiu Jiu had always admired Ye Zimo, feeling that although he was indifferent, he still liked Xia Yihan. But why was he being so harsh on her now? She was bleeding, and he still wouldn't let her get bandaged. Yihan was too pitiable.
