“Whatever you want to know, you have to protect my child. If anything happens to Rou’er, you…” Liu Shulan only had half her life left, and she was still struggling desperately.
Su Yingxue tilted her head and listened to the sounds outside the window. Then, she sneered, “Your Rou’er is outside. How are you going to protect her now? What do you think I will do to her?”
“Rou’er… Su Yingxue, you dare! If you dare to touch a single strand of Rou’er’s hair, I’ll bite my tongue and commit suicide. Don’t even think about knowing anything!” Liu Shulan’s scarlet eyes were filled with determination.
Su Yingxue smiled and said, “Alright, as long as you die, I’ll make Su Yurou suffer a fate worse than death. Do you believe me? 1’11 find Saint Ruan and bring her a hundred different poisons. I’ll torture her for a few hundred days and turn her into a puddle of pus and blood.”
Su Yingxue asked Saint Ruan to apply medicine for her to let Liu Shulan know how powerful Saint Ruan was.
When Liu Shulan heard this, her body trembled uncontrollably. “No! Don’t treat my Rou’er like this!”
When Liu Shulan thought about how her daughter would be tortured like this, she would rather her daughter die with her!
“So, are you going to tell me how my mother died? And who is that man in the black hat?”
Su Yingxue pinched Liu Shulan’s chin and stared at Liu Shulan with a pair of cold eyes that were like sharp arrows piercing through bones.
Liu Shulan’s pupils dilated in fear. “How do you know that he… Wudao… Your mother was killed by him! It has nothing to do with me!”
“It has nothing to do with you. What did you use to poison my father? Didn’t that Wudao guy teach you all of this?”
The sharpness in Su Yingxue’s eyes intensified. “How did he harm my mother? What did you do for him?”
Her pressing was like a steel needle piercing through Liu Shulan’s heart bit by bit. Liu Shulan was extremely afraid. If she had a choice, she could bite her tongue and commit suicide now.
However, her Rou’er was still in Su Yingxue’s hands…
If she died, Su Yingxue would torture her Rou’er…
Liu Shulan closed her eyes in resignation. “It was Wudao who taught me to trick your mother out. When your mother saw him, she just…”
Su Yingxue’s roar was still ringing in her ears, but Liu Shulan was deeply immersed in her memories. That was the most terrifying change she had experienced more than ten years ago.
She was born in poverty and was just a girl from an ordinary family. However, driven by her mother’s ambition and a desire to avoid marrying her off to a farmer, fearing it would consign her to a life of poverty, her mother frequently took her to places frequented by noble families. The hope was to find an opportunity to be noticed and liked by a wealthy family.
As expected, after a few exchanges, she had been caught by the Second Young Master of the Marquis’s Manor. Even though she knew that the Second Young Master of the Marquis’s Manor, Su Dingheng, was the most dissolute and useless, the wealth of the Marquis’s noble families still made her heart flutter. She used all her skills to pester Su Dingheng.
Su Dingheng was young and flirtatious. How could he have withstood the soft and supple moves she displayed? He quickly fell in love with her.
However, she had been with Su Dingheng for a year, but the Senior Marquis did not allow Su Dingheng to marry her. He even warned her not to think about entering the Marquis’s Manor. Their Marquis’s Manor would never accept a woman like her who had fallen for her good.
At that time, she was extremely indignant. She was also from a good family and had not fallen into the dust. Why did the Marquis’s Manor not want her?
What right did he have to look down on her?
She simply wanted to use her efforts to climb up the social ladder, escape poverty, and gradually ascend to a better life..
