The beautiful woman’s intent grew stronger. In a calm voice, she said, “Come in.”
Shang Guan Xushui entered the room. She looked worriedly at the beautiful woman’s back. In a tired voice, she said, “Elder sister, everything is ready,” filled with hatred.
“Okay, you can go now,” the beautiful woman continued to look outside.
“Yes.” Shang Guan Xushui spoke and turned towards the door.
Just as she was about to step out, the woman looking out the window calmly said, “Don’t tell anyone else about this without my order.” If possible, she didn’t want her sisters to be harmed.
“But elder sister…” She naturally knew who her sister meant, but didn’t think not telling them was the best approach.
“Enough. Go!” She knew Xushui wouldn’t agree with her method, but still hoped not to involve the others unless absolutely necessary.
“Sigh!” Shang Guan Xushui looked at her elder sister, sighing helplessly. “Yes.”
As the footsteps gradually faded, the beautiful woman turned to the man on the bed, slowly walking to his side. She softly said, “I will make them pay a painful price. Wake up soon, okay?”
Receiving no response, she turned to look at the night sky, seeming to speak to someone or perhaps just mumbling to herself. “Time is up, I really must go. Where are you?”
Yes, she was waiting for someone, though she didn’t know who, only feeling that this person could make her feel secure and warm.
Leng Youlan gently walked beside the bed, with her disappointment growing with each step. She murmured, “Mommy, perhaps there’s nothing left in this world worth cherishing.”
Her heart was almost dead, yet she still had to live because she wanted revenge.
She didn’t want her mother to abandon her too. “Mommy, once I avenge you, I’ll come find you. Please don’t abandon me.” She felt the air was cold.
“Elder sister, elder sister!” Seeing her elder sister descending the stairs in a daze, Shang Guan Xushui rushed forward, supporting her with both hands. She was afraid her elder sister might fall, as her face was pale.
Worriedly, she said, “Elder sister, why don’t you not go? Ai Temeng and I can handle this. You can trust us.”
