Chapter 139: To Pay Back a Score

He could only choose one between dignity and life.

Lin Qing has never faced such a difficult choice. If he chooses dignity, he will lose his life. If he chooses life, he will lose dignity and also the qualification to continue to love.

Situ Yaohua gave him a good problem. No matter which one he chooses, it was driving him to death!

Lin Qing laughed in the dark to conceal the fear in his heart. He struggled to get up when he suddenly saw a figure standing outside of the cell. He moved his body with great difficulty and leaned against the wall. This gray prison uniform was really uncomfortable to wear. How much did Situ Yaohua wanted him to be a prisoner to even let someone change him? Such a great offender like him, no one would dare to treat him like a real prisoner before he was interrogated. So, naturally no one would put the prison uniform on him that represented a criminal.

After leaning well against the wall, he raised his head to look at the person who was standing outside the door watching him. Lin Qing gasped as he said, "Fifth Highness, how have you been? Don't know if you such a dignified person came to this dark cell specifically to laugh at this subordinate. If so, is Your Highness satisfied?"

Lin Qing didn't know whether it was day or night. The oil lamp burned all year long in the dark cell blurred the line between day and night, making him unable to tell what time it was.

Situ Yuanxiao let someone open the door of the cell. At first, the jailer didn't dare to do so, but due to Situ Yuanxiao's oppression, he opened it for him. After all, this was the biological younger brother of the Eastern Palace and someone who would become a prince of first rank in the future! His weight in the crown prince's heart is certainly not light. Hence, he didn't weight the pros and cons for a long time and opened the door for Situ Yuanxiao.

The jailer placed a chair inside the cell for Situ Yuanxiao. Situ Yuanxiao sat in front of Lin Qing adorned in an expensive majestic robe and stared directly at him in silence.

Lin Qing was also not in a hurry and leaned against the dirty dark wall, waiting for Situ Yuanxiao to speak first.

If this wall was touched by Zhao Zimu, she would definitely dislike it and would even find it unbearable. Although, she usually didn't show it, Lin Qing could still see that her cleanliness has sometimes reached the point of obsession. She doesn't know how she endured being mixed together with those dirty army men.

No matter what happened, Lin Qing's thoughts were full of his Zhao Zimu. he didn't regret that he got the things to this point. He just felt that he had profited if he could quietly think about her. Therefore, if Situ Yuanxiao continues to not speak, Lin Qing could also continue to stay like this and wouldn't feel lonely at all.

But Situ Yuanxiao was someone who would have to speak, otherwise, he wouldn't have come here to sit in front of him. however, when Situ Yuanxiao spoke, Lin Qing was not pleased, "You are going to die."

Lin Qing didn't like to hear these words. Although he was much older than Zhao Zimu, but they planned to grow old together. Situ Yuanxiao's words made him unhappy, so, he said unhappily, "Fifth Highness, although this subject has become a prisoner now, but the success and defeat were still unknown. This world is His Majesty's. As long as His Majesty is still here, he would never forget this subject."

"You are going to die. I can take care of Zhao Zhong for you."

Lin Qing was dumbstruck for a moment and then he laughed from anger. It turned out that he came here for such a purpose. He really didn't give up. Does he like his people so much?
