Our Binding Love: My Gentle Tyrant

The World as a Chess

Ye Mu wanted to resist at first but was powerless. She also guessed who would be kidnapping her right now. There was no one else other than Min Liang!

The moment she thought Min Liang got ahold of her, maybe to force Mo Linyuan to surrender, Ye Mu clenched her teeth, forcing herself to clear her head!

At this moment, she still had a fever, and in the horse carriage, two men were with her. Seeing she had woken up, they fiercely said, “Don’t move!”

Ye Mu felt something cool was nestling against her neck.

“Ye-xiaojie, I know you’re very smart, but if you want to stay alive, you better not move!”

Ye Muswept a glance at him. Seeing he covered his face, she no longer looked. Where were they bringing her? Directly to Mo Linyuan’s battlefield or another place?

Fever made it hard to think. Ye Mu gradually fell asleep, until the next morning, she opened her eyes, tired and hungry.

“Water.” Ye Mu’s hoarse voice came out. The carriage was still rushing.

Someone heard her and said, “Why not give her a little water? She looks like she’ll die soon!”

“No!” The other person refused immediately. “This girl is extremely sly. The plan our master has built for many years is destroyed in a moment because of one girl! We absolutely can’t underestimate her, we’ll fall into a trap!”

Ye Mu’s smile was bitter when she heard that. She was truly dying right now, how could she think of a plan?

But maybe it was because she was tough, but she actually pushed through. These people gave her a bit of medicine along the way, a little water, and a little food. Her body rapidly thinned down. In the end, when she arrived in Zhao Country, she was all skin and bones.

Finally one day, she went down the carriage and heard someone’s “yi”. “You guys are too rough, such a little young lady, how’d you make her look so ghastly?”

Ye Mu strained her eyes open to look at the other’s face. His face seemed to glow under the sunlight. She couldn’t completely open her eyes, but the other person’s features made her sigh in her heart.

It’s him.

Ye Mu wryly smiled. So it was indeed the person she saw on her wedding day.

And then she was moved indoors. This time, she finally could drink medicine and eat. She didn’t even have the strength to pick up the chopsticks at first. Later after she had a little strength, she grabbed the chopsticks and wolfed down the food.

The hypocrite before her frowned.

“Ye-xiaojie, you represent a country, can’t you mind your manners a little?”

Ye Mu didn’t feel like dealing with him. Besides being hungry and sick for days, it was also how she looked when eating!

Min Liang faintly smiled. “Ye-xiaojie, you must have figured out who I am, right?”

He had peach eyes full of tenderness. When she saw that the person was extremely gentle, Ye Mu was surprised because she messed up his plan of years. Even if he wasn’t seething with rage, he shouldn’t be so friendly with her. The only clear explanation could only be that this person was very shrewd, and didn’t show his emotions!

“Min Liang, your country has joined the war. You’re actually not worried.”

After Ye Mu had her fill, she finally had the desire to speak. She looked at Min Liang, surmising his intention.

Who knew Min Liang would say, smiling, “What’s to worry about?”

His finger pointed in front of the table. “If you didn’t disrupt the plan, Mo Country would be besieged and destroyed by the three countries Zhao, Yan and Wei. Zhao Country would be flanked by Wei Country and perish. Wei Country would be invaded by Yuan Country. And Zhao and Yan would suffer heavy losses after they win. At that moment, looking at the world, only Li Country will be in its prime. A year isn’t needed to break them up one by one and unite the countries.”

His plan was perfect, ambition was also wild. Even if Ye Mu knew already, hearing him say it made her think he was a lunatic!

He toyed with the world and the people. Each country was like the pawn in his hand. He was playing chess with Mo Linyuan in different places, but Mo Linyuan cared about the lives of the common people, while he didn’t care because they were merely pawns.

Min Liang added, “And now, you ruined my plan.”

A distressed expression appeared on his pretty face. “My perfect chance is messed up because of you. Now Wei Country has fallen. Yuan Country and Zhao Country are reaping the last territory of Wei Country. Li Country has no other chance but to fight Yan Country earlier, and Yan Country recalled the reinforcements. Mo Linyuan’s pressure is immediately gone. All of this isn’t what I want to see.”

Ye Mu stared at his aggressive look. “But you look like you’re not worried at all.”

“Worried? What’s worrisome?” He faintly smiled, peach eyes blinking. “Even if Yan Country wants to recall the reinforcements, it needs time. Meanwhile, it will be annexed by Li Country.

“Zhao Country’s main force is stalled by Mo Linyuan so they must fight and its remaining troops aren’t enough to resist Li Country, so until this war is over, regardless if Mo Linyuan wins or loses, Li Country will not suffer damage. The only change is just annexing two countries and unifying all the countries, so what do I have to worry about?

“Most importantly, if Mo Country, Yue and Yuan Countries want to win, huge sacrifice is needed, but Li Country doesn’t have to. Zhao and Yan Countries are already rendered powerless by Mo Country. Li Country on the other hand can expand its land effortlessly, honing its strength. Until then, Li Country will be the most powerful leader in the world!”

His train of thought was clear, making Ye Mu unable to refute. She couldn’t help but admit this person was smart, giving people no chance. His only mistake was staying in Mo Country and didn’t rush over in time. If he was in Li Country, her acts would be difficult to accomplish.

But now the situation was fixed. She also didn’t have to worry and only looked at him and said,

“You’re right, Li Country flourishes the most until now, no wonder you have nothing to fear. Then why did you capture me? You want to use me to threaten Mo Linyuan?”

Min Liang smiled, nodding his head. “It’s what I was thinking before. Mo Linyuan treasures you, it’s not impossible for him to surrender because of you.”

Before Ye Mu could speak, he suddenly shifted the topic. “But after seeing you, I changed my mind. Until now, I’ve always wanted to compete with Mo Linyuan. Although the victor isn’t decided yet, if I’m ahold of you, I’m afraid the blow to him will be more serious than losing, right?”

Ye Mu stood up with a “teng“. Her face was cold as she said, “Besides lying and threatening, you even won’t let go of a woman now? You’re getting more and more shameless!”

Min Liang took her anger as praise. He chuckled. “You’re not an ordinary woman. Besides, Mo Linyuan likes you so much. I also want to see if you’re still capable in a foreign place!”
