He truly hated Liu Manrou to the extreme, especially in dreams where he saw this woman repeatedly suggesting she was tormented by him at night, which only multiplied his hatred.
No one had ever dared to wrong him like this!
In his past life, Liu Manrou was thrown into the military camp and, until his death, clung to life while laboring for the army, unable to seek life or death, used to satiate the soldiers' desires.
In this life, under Lu Ziyuan's arrangement, she should face the same fate.
But Xie Wanqing's reaction gave him a headache.
He could disregard the views of the whole world, but he couldn't ignore her opinion.
He worried she would accuse him again, and was even more concerned she might fear him, avoiding him like a plague, so he wouldn't know what to do then.
Thinking it over, Lu Ziyuan chose to reluctantly step back.
"If you don't like me doing this, then I won't make her labor for the army," he said. "As you wish, I'll let her die quickly."
