Chapter 920: Absurd

He truly had no interest in her.

Yinxing felt a mix of fear and disbelief swirling within her.

Despite knowing it was inappropriate, she couldn’t resist asking Shao Yunduan, “Fifth Master, what is wrong with me? Why…”

Yinxing boldly posed this question, her charm and pitiful demeanor on full display.

Shao Yunduan remained unmoved, his tone icy as he replied, “There is nothing appealing about you.”

Did she think that every man in the world would be captivated by her?

How absurd!

In his eyes, she was nothing more than an alluring yet hollow woman. Even if a man claimed to like her, he would ultimately treat her as a mere plaything. Shao Yunduan didn’t even bother to compare her to his wife, for she wasn’t worthy of being mentioned in the same breath.

Yinxing felt a surge of displeasure, but she refrained from asking any further. She knew there was nothing to gain from pressing him.

This man wasn’t lying about his dislike for her.

For the first time, Yinxing felt a deep sense of shame when facing a man.

She clenched her teeth and shifted her attention to County Magistrate Qiao, who lay unconscious on the couch.

That was her only option.

If she couldn’t become County Magistrate’s woman tonight, Madame Qiao would ensure she had no chance at all.

Madame Qiao would seek to destroy her.

County Magistrate Qiao, although a minor official and advancing in age, at least offered some prospect of being a part of the family. Yinxing, young and beautiful, would always have a place by his side. It was better than having no future and remaining in ignorance.

Shao Yunduan observed Yinxings gaze as she turned to County Magistrate Qiao, and he remained indifferent.

Unable to resist, Yinxing asked, “Fifth Master, do you look down on me?”

She maintained her pitiful demeanor, appearing even weaker and sadder than before, eliciting sympathy from men.

Yinxing had a calculated plan.

If Shao Yunduan couldn’t help but soften his heart, she would notice and throw herself into his arms, weeping and pleading for comfort. The outcome would then be entirely different.

However, Shao Yunduan merely cast a peculiar look at her and responded, “Why should I look down on you?”

Yinxing found herself at a loss for words.

She understood Shao Yunduan’s implication: “Who are you to me? What significance do you hold in my life? Your actions are your own concern. Why should I look down on you?”

Bitterness filled Yinxings smile, stirring a whirlwind of emotions within her.

It didn’t feel pleasant.

She had assumed that all men were alike, but that assumption was proven wrong..
