brute

The next morning.

The sky was turning pale, and the clouds in the sky were like waves.

The sunlight shone into the room through the window. Song Linluo opened his eyes, hurriedly got up, put on his clothes, dressed himself, and hurried out.

Xiao Yuchen fed her a sleeping pill last night, so there shouldn't be so many guards today. She opened the door, stuck her head out and looked around, then breathed a sigh of relief when she found that there was no one around.

She walked out of the room, closed the door, and left in a hurry.

The journey to Xiling Palace was so peaceful that it was a little eerie. Song Linluo always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't figure out what the problem was for a moment.

Arriving at Xiling Palace, Song Linluo pushed open the door, walked in, and said, "Mother."

Jun Ling had just finished putting on her clothes when she called Song Linluo over. She hurriedly sat down and casually adjusted her clothes, saying, "Luo'er, why are you here so early?"

Song Linluo walked up to Jun Ling, took her hand and was about to walk out the door, but Jun Ling did not move.

Song Linluo turned back to look at Jun Ling, frowned slightly, and said, "Mother, what's wrong?"

Jun Ling forced a smile, shook his head and said, "It's okay, I just want to see Luo'er again."

Song Linluo couldn't help feeling sad when he saw Jun Ling looking so thin. Poor parents in the world.

Her son certainly reciprocated...

Jun Ling patted the seat next to him and said, "Luo'er, come and sit with mother for a while."

Song Linluo did not refuse and walked to Jun Ling and sat down: "Mother..."

Jun Ling took out a jade pendant, rubbed it in his hand, and sighed, "After your mother saved me, I lived in your village for a while. Back then, you were just a little girl in swaddling clothes, and now you've grown up in the blink of an eye..."

At first, Song Linluo was just a little kid, barely able to walk steadily. The little kid crawled to Jun Ling's side, held Jun Ling's hand, and said with a smile: "Beautiful sister..."

To this day, Jun Ling still remembers the little baby calling "pretty sister" without even pronouncing the words clearly.

Later, Song Linluo's mother took the baby and Jun Ling to the mountain to pray for safety. The monk in the temple gave Jun Ling and Song Linluo a jade pendant called Tongxin Jade.

Xiao Yuchen was not born at that time.

The monk predicted: These two children have a deep marriage bond and will definitely be together in the future, so they must wear this heart-shaped jade carefully.

Jun Ling wanted to ask something else, but the monk only left a sentence: "Two unhappy lives have resulted in a happy marriage in the third life." Then he disappeared.

Just after he finished saying this, Jun Ling felt a pain in his stomach, and then Xiao Yuchen was born...

Song Linluo smiled and said, "Mother, this jade pendant is a concentric jade..."

She took off the jade pendant from her waist, and the two jades together made a pair!

Jun Ling placed the Heart-Shaped Jade in Song Linluo's hand and said, "Yuchen should have kept this with him, but he didn't believe in it at first, so I didn't force him to carry it. Now I'm giving this jade to you."

Song Linluo took the jade, and her heart felt like it was being weighed down by a stone. She was so uncomfortable that she could hardly breathe.

Song Linluo put the jade away, sniffed, and said, "Mother, do you have anything else to tell me?"

Jun Ling raised his hand and touched Song Linluo's head, saying, "Luo'er, I don't know what will happen between you and Yuchen in the future, but I only ask that you help me take good care of him... I only have this one son, and I don't want anything to happen to him..."

Song Linluo: "Okay, I will do my best to take care of him."

Jun Ling rolled her eyes and looked away. She was afraid that if her gaze lingered on Song Linluo again, she would burst into tears.

She stood up, glanced at Song Linluo and said, "Luo'er, I've been locked up here for five years. I'm tired. Yuchen has grown up now. As his mother, it's time for me to leave him."

Song Linluo stood up, took Jun Ling's hand and took her out of Xiling Palace.

Song Linluo had already toured the entire palace a few days ago, and she knew the route out of the palace very well.

Song Linluo stopped and looked at the exit not far away. He said, "Mother, I can only take you this far..."

Jun Ling smiled lightly: "Luo'er, thank you."

Then a long arrow flashed past Song Linluo's eyes and shot fiercely into Jun Ling's heart.

The pain instantly spread throughout his limbs. Jun Ling squatted down, covered the wound on his body and suddenly spat out a mouthful of black blood.

Xiao Yuchen handed the bow to Luo Han, the corners of his lips slightly raised, and said: "Today, no one can leave."

Song Linluo turned to look at Xiao Yuchen, her eyes slightly red, her hands clenched into fists, her nails digging into her flesh. Endless hatred devoured her sanity, and she roared, "Xiao Yuchen!"

Xiao Yuchen lowered his eyes to Jun Ling. Song Linluo then remembered that Jun Ling was still seriously injured. She hurried to Jun Ling's side, lifted him into her arms, and cried, "Mother... please hold on... I can save you."

Song Linluo touched her belt and found that she had not brought her silver needle. Now she could only cry helplessly.

Jun Ling raised her hand and touched Song Linluo's face, forcing herself to say, "Don't cry, Luo'er... Life and death are determined by fate... Now my... life is over. Mother... I don't ask for anything... I only ask that you... take good care of him..."

Jun Ling breathed his last, and the hand that was touching Song Linluo's cheek dropped down.

Xiao Yuchen's face showed no emotion. He just watched coldly until Jun Ling died. Then he spoke: "Luo Han, throw the body into the mass grave."

Mass grave? Jun Ling is his mother!

Song Linluo sneered: "Mass grave?" She lifted Jun Ling's body and stood up, tears streaming down her face: "You have such a cruel heart."

Xiao Yuchen walked up to Song Linluo, pinched her chin, forced her to look up at him, and said, "Luo'er, I said that anyone who wants to take you away from me must die."

Song Linluo couldn't contain his emotions at this moment and shouted, "Xiao Yuchen! She's your mother! Your biological mother! How could you have the heart to do that to her!"

Xiao Yuchen pursed his lips and said coldly, "What can mother do? Anyone who takes you away must die!"

Song Linluo: "I have nothing now..." She sniffed and smiled: "Xiao Yuchen, are you satisfied?"

Xiao Yuchen walked towards Song Linluo and said, "Luo'er, you still have me and our child. You should only have eyes for me, why do you care about those insignificant people?" He stopped and said, "Anyone who attracts Luo'er's attention deserves to die."

Xiao Yuchen held Song Linluo's hand and said humbly: "Luo'er, please look at me, okay? I like you..."

How ridiculous! In her previous life, Song Linluo begged Xiao Yuchen to look at her, saying that she was his fiancée, but all she got in return was Xiao Yuchen’s words: Get out!

Xiao Yuchen took Song Linluo into his arms and said, "Luo'er, I like you. Can you like me too?"

Song Linluo used all his strength to push Xiao Yuchen away and said, "Get out!"

Xiao Yuchen took two steps back and steadied himself.

Song Linluo said aggrievedly, "Back then, I begged you to let you look at me, but you didn't even bother looking at me and directly scolded me as worse than a prostitute in a brothel. Why are you doing this now? Are you deliberately belittling me?"

Xiao Yuchen: "I didn't..."

Song Linluo: "No? Xiao Yuchen... please let me go, okay? Just consider it as my plea to you."

Xiao Yuchen clenched his fists and said, "No, you can only stay by my side for the rest of your life and you can't go anywhere else!"

Song Linluo smiled. She raised her head and looked towards the sky, her eyes filled with sorrow and pain. "You said you love me? What do you mean by love?" She roared, "With your overbearing and hypocritical love?!"

The sound echoed in the air and pierced into Xiao Yuchen's ears like a sharp thorn.

Song Linluo felt dizzy and fell to the ground.

Xiao Yuchen: "Song Linluo!"

He ran towards Song Linluo, quickly picked him up and left.

At this moment, Xiao Yuchen was really panicked. He was afraid that Song Linluo would die and leave him completely.

But she didn't want Song Linluo to leave her even more. Song Linluo was his life now.

It was obvious that he hated Song Linluo so much in the beginning that he tortured her to the point where she was worse than death, but now he still loved Song Linluo to the bone and wished he could lock her tightly by his side...

He really hated himself!

Song Linluo was sent back to the room. Xiao Yuchen put Song Linluo on the bed, and he sat by the window to accompany Song Linluo.

Luo Han has already gone to call the imperial physician, but he hasn't arrived yet.

Xiao Yuchen lay on the edge of the bed, his eyes slightly moist. He sniffed and said, "Luo'er, what should I do with you..."

After he finished speaking, Xiao Yuchen closed his eyes and fell asleep.

In the dream, Song Linluo walked to Xiao Yuchen's side and begged: "Yuchen, look at me, I am your fiancée, Luo'er loves Yuchen..."

Xiao Yuchen, however, pushed Song Linluo away without mercy and cursed, "Get lost!"

Song Linluo cried in grievance, then wiped her tears and turned away.

Xiao Yuchen wanted to catch Song Linluo, but found that the dream was not under his control at all.

Then, he saw the little girl crying, squatting on the ground and crying like a kitten. The little girl cried aggrievedly: "Mom lied... The Xiao Mansion is not as good as Mom said. They all bully me... Even Yuchen doesn't like me..."

Xiao Yuchen squatted down and wanted to wipe the little girl's tears, but his hand went straight through Song Linluo's body. He paused and whispered, "I'm sorry..."

You Qianyue came over and kicked Song Linluo, knocking him to the ground. She smiled coldly, "Song Linluo! Yuchen doesn't love you. He won't even look at you if you keep pestering him like this all day long. He will only think you're cheap!"

Song Linluo staggered to his feet, wiped his tears and said, "What do you care! One day I will make Xiao Yuchen like me!"

Song Linluo turned around and ran away.

Xiao Yuchen felt distressed. Song Linluo had said that one day she would make him fall in love with her... But the result was: because of Xiao Yuchen's repeated indulgence, Song Linluo was burned to death in that fire...
