Please Let Me Go

Xiao Zetian looked at Su Li, his eyes dark and unclear. Seeing her messy hair and torn clothes, he wondered if she had really been assaulted by Prince Ling...

The thought ignited a murderous rage in Xiao Zetian's eyes. He took a deep breath, regretting not killing Prince Ling earlier!

Though killing a prince would bring him trouble and danger, the idea of Prince Ling harming Su Li made him want to skin the prince alive to vent his anger!

She was the woman he cherished deeply, whose body he had always cherished and protected, yet that bastard Prince Ling actually dared to...

Xiao Zetian took a deep breath, suppressing the urge to kill Prince Ling. He decided to deal with him later; right now, comforting Su Li was the priority.

She had been so frightened and must be terrified. Thinking of his Li, who was so helpless and scared, and that he hadn't appeared in time to protect her, filled Xiao Zetian with guilt.

At this moment, Su Li stared at him with wary and guarded eyes, clutching her clothes tightly as she took step after step backward.

"Li, come to me. I won't hurt you," Xiao Zetian reached out his hand to her.

Su Li bit her lip, her face pale. "You're not Yuanbao, are you? You've regained your memory long ago but pretended to have amnesia to deceive me, haven't you!"

"Li, I... I planned to tell you when the time was right, but I didn't expect..." Xiao Zetian looked at her with pain and conflict.

"The right time? Was it after I bore your child, after I was tied to you because of the child, that you planned to tell me you're the son-in-law of the Princess of Chu?" Su Li's tears fell heavily.

Xiao Zetian's heart ached with hers. He raised his hand, and the Xiao family secret guards silently withdrew like a tide.

Xiao Zetian looked at Su Li in pain. "Li, am I such a despicable person in your heart? You'd rather believe Prince Ling's provocations than trust your own husband?"

Su Li showed a mocking smile: "Husband? Ha... I married that foolish, utterly trusting me, completely transparent silly husband Yuanbao. Not you, the famous War God General, the son-in-law of the Princess of Chu, Xiao Zetian!"

"Li!" Xiao Zetian could no longer suppress the pain in his heart and tightly embraced Su Li.

Su Li kicked and shouted in his arms, desperately trying to break free, but she could never escape.

Su Li, with tears streaming down, slowly gave up struggling, her body softening as Xiao Zetian held her. She looked up, heartbroken and desperate, staring at him: "General Xiao, I'm just a powerless village girl, I can't fight you. If you want me to do business and earn money for you, just say so. You don't need to pretend to be a couple with me. I'll help you make money and teach your men my cooking skills, just please spare me. I, Su Li, only want a peaceful life and don't want to be caught up in your noble battles. Please, General Xiao, let me go."

"Let you go?" Xiao Zetian held her tightly, lifting her chin with his fingers, pain spreading in his eyes. "You are my wife, my only wife. How could I let you go? I will never let you go in this lifetime!"

After saying that, Xiao Zetian carried Su Li horizontally, activated his lightness skill, leapt onto a nearby horse, placed Su Li in front of him, and grabbed the reins.

Su Li did not resist or speak, her face blank, letting Xiao Zetian take her wherever he wanted.
