"Yiru, you like Lou Xingzhou so much. Can you really let him go? Can you live with other men? Yiru, you truly understand me, don't you?" Li Wantong grabbed Shen Yiru's hand and said excitedly.
Both of them knew each other's feelings. Li Wantong now knew that the man she loved had someone he liked. In comparison, Shen Yiru was much luckier. At least she could still have fantasies about the man she loved, while Li Wantong could only be sad and heart - broken alone.
Shen Yiru was rendered speechless by the question. Her answer was obvious. Although she had known Lou Xingzhou for only a few months, she had spent a full three months learning about his past.
She had gradually fallen in love with that gentle and elegant man. It was not until she met this man that she understood the meaning of the two lines "The man on the path is as gentle as jade, and the gentleman is peerless in the world".
Lou Xingzhou was a favored son of heaven. Although Shen Yiru was not bad either, she didn't have the confidence to confess her love to him. She thought she was not a perfect person and didn't deserve him.
She also picked up a glass and took a sip of strong liquor. After the drink, she felt a bit better. "Wantong, I want to fight for it, but I'm afraid. I'm afraid I don't deserve him. Sometimes I really envy Mu Fengqie. She has Jing Xunche who loves her so much, while we seem to be orphans abandoned by God."
They really envied the happy Mu Fengqie. The two of them were a perfect match, like a golden boy and a jade girl. They both had each other in their hearts. Perhaps this was the happiest thing.
Li Wantong felt the same way. The bitterness in her heart had nowhere to go. She was the oldest among the three, already seventeen this year, a full year older than the other two. She was already an old maid.
The reason she had never married was to wait for Yuan Yuhan. Now that things had come to this, how could she give up?
"What on earth am I lacking compared to Aru? Why, with our childhood friendship, did he choose someone else? Why on earth?" Li Wantong held the glass and roared painfully.
"Lou Xingzhou! I won't give up on you. Even if you already have someone you like in your heart, I will still like you. No matter what, I will like you for the rest of my life. You may have forgotten me now, but I will make myself more excellent until the day when I deserve you!"
Shen Yiru imitated Li Wantong and said all the things she wanted to say in her heart. Sure enough, after saying all her heartfelt words, she felt much more comfortable.
However, her words inspired Li Wantong. Yes, she couldn't give up. Her current daily goal was to marry Yuan Yuhan. She couldn't give up because of Aru who came out of nowhere.
Even if the two of them were together, it didn't mean she had no chance. As long as they weren't married yet, she still had a chance. She would never give up no matter what. She would even resort to any means to get the man she loved back!
Li Wantong's eyes changed. They became colder and colder. She didn't even notice that she was becoming more and more like Bei Moxue.
They both had the same obsession, but she hadn't been as obsessed as Bei Moxue to do evil things.
After Mu Fengqie and Jing Xunche returned to the general's mansion, they first went to see Aru. They were relieved to see that Aru was okay. Mu Fengqie felt as if she had aged a lot overnight.
She had experienced too many things in this one - and - a - half months. The baby that was supposed to be born in three or four months was gone. Xiaoqing, who had been with her for a long time, had also passed away. Now her younger sister was seriously injured. She felt more and more exhausted and couldn't bear any more blows and stimuli.
The culprit of all this was Bei Moxue. She would never let this heinous woman go, no matter what!
After seeing Yuexue's body, Bei Moxue quickly sent someone to dispose of it. Then she lost her sleep. Although she felt uneasy, as if something was about to happen, she still decided to wait and see.
Anyway, she was a princess. Mu Fengqie wouldn't do anything to her. So she planned to stay put and see what would happen.
Before dawn, Mu Fengqie brought people to Plum Garden. Bei Moxue got up nervously. As soon as she went out, she saw Mu Fengqie coming aggressively.
"What do you want with me so early?" Bei Moxue asked nervously.
Looking at so many people, she began to worry. These people all seemed to have martial arts skills and were all experts.
What did Mu Fengqie bring so many highly skilled people for? Did she really want to do something to her?
"I've made it very clear to you. If I find out that it was you who took Aru away, I won't let you go. What did Aru do to you that you would hurt her so badly?"
Due to mental stress and staying up all night, Mu Fengqie's eyes became blood - red with bloodshot eyes. She looked as terrifying as a devil coming out of hell.
Hearing this, Bei Moxue suddenly became nervous. "I warn you not to mess around. If you do anything to me, Beiming will never let you go."
Mu Fengqie clenched her fists tightly and said viciously, "I'm not afraid of Beiming at all! Come on, arrest her and take her to the wood - shed!"
Bei Moxue let out a scream. Only then did she realize that something was wrong. When she tried to run away, she was pressed to the ground and couldn't move. At this moment, she knew what a stupid decision she had made, but it was too late to regret.
She was locked in the dirty and dark wood - shed by Mu Fengqie, tied up tightly and unable to move. Her mouth was also gagged so that she couldn't even speak.
"You finally know what it's like to be afraid? From now on, I'll settle all these things with you one by one!" With that, she took out a few huge silver needles from her bosom and fiddled with them in front of Bei Moxue.
Bei Moxue kept shaking her head. She knew very well at this moment that Mu Fengqie had made up her mind to take revenge on her. The silver needles in her hand were prepared for her.
Mu Fengqie quickly stabbed the huge silver needle into Bei Moxue's flesh with a puff. Bei Moxue's pupils dilated instantly. The pain was unbearable.
She had lived a life of luxury since childhood and had never suffered such grievances. Just one silver needle made her suffer so much.
Mu Fengqie took out the gag from Bei Moxue's mouth and watched her painful expression. Only in this way could Mu Fengqie feel better.
