Chapter 152: I carried you out of the pile of dead bodies

conscience?

Chu Nanxin laughed out loud, her laughter sharp and shrill, tears streaming down her cheeks uncontrollably. Memories surged like a surging tide, completely drowning her.

I still remember Aunt Fang's cold face as she warned her, each word as sharp as a knife: "A concubine's daughter is a concubine's daughter. Don't dream of being on equal footing with a legitimate daughter. You will never be able to stand up straight in front of them in your life."

"When you grow up and choose a husband, the powerful and influential families will only have eyes for legitimate daughters. A bastard like you will either become a concubine or marry a poor boy, and you will never be able to turn your life around."

Those words, like a cold shackle, bound her future tightly.

She is unwilling to accept it!

Why...

Why is fate so unfair?

Since then, she has hidden her true self, put on a mask of gentleness and kindness, and presented herself as the most innocent and harmless person, deceiving others' trust and taking what she needs from them.

When she heard that Chu Ruohan was about to marry into the Anyang Marquis Mansion, the flames of jealousy instantly burned in her chest, burning her to the point of losing all her rationality.

Why can Chu Ruohan have all this so easily?

Marry into the marquis's mansion and become the wife of the high and mighty prince.

And just because she was a concubine...

Jealousy drives people crazy.

Until she met Gu Chengyan, her heart sank uncontrollably. Even though she had never been seen in his eyes, she was happy with it.

Even if he doesn't love her.

But her life was ruined by her own mother. Her dignity was trampled to pieces by those men who came in and out of her room again and again.

She cried countless times in the middle of the night, her tears soaking her pillow. She didn't understand why her mother was so cruel to her and pushed her into this endless abyss.

In this room, only Chu Ruohan knew that this woman was not pitiful, she was selfish, and she wanted to step on everyone.

And in her previous life, she must have known her identity.

She still remembers how Chu Nanxin abused her in her previous life...

The atmosphere in the main hall was solemn and depressing, like the dead silence before a storm.

Aunt Fang was leisurely playing with birds in her yard when she heard the servant report that the eldest and third young ladies had returned.

Her heart skipped a beat and an ominous premonition came to her mind. She quickly put down the bird food in her hand and hurried to the main hall.

She jogged along, her hair was a little messy, and beads of sweat appeared on her forehead.

As soon as I arrived at the door of the main hall, I saw Chu Nanxin kneeling on the ground in a mess. Chu's father was sitting in the main seat with a gloomy face, while Chu Ruohan and Chu's mother were standing aside with different expressions.

Chu Yueshu and Chu Chenyu were both there, but they kept it a secret from her.

"Nan Xin is back, master, what happened?" Aunt Fang put on a concerned smile and asked in surprise, but there was a trace of imperceptible panic in her eyes.

Chu's father did not answer.

Chu Ruohan snorted coldly, her eyes piercing towards Aunt Fang like knives. "Aunt Fang, there's no need to pretend. Chu Nanxin and Xiangxiang have confessed everything."

After all, Aunt Fang is an old hand who has been working in the mansion for many years. Although her heart is in turmoil, she remains calm on the surface.

She frowned slightly, an innocent yet confused look on her face. "Confess? Confess what? Miss, I don't understand what you're saying."

As she spoke, she patted her chest lightly, as if to calm herself down.

Chu Nanxin knelt on the ground, raised his head, his eyes full of hatred, "Now, you should stop pretending. I have told you everything."

Her voice was hoarse, with a hint of relief and fatigue.

Aunt Fang's face turned pale instantly, but she still held on, "Nan Xin, what nonsense are you talking about? Is someone forcing you? Don't say anything nonsense."

As she spoke, she quietly observed Chu's father's expression, trying to find a sign of relaxation on his face.

Chu Ruohan took a step forward and looked at Aunt Fang coldly, "Over the years, you have been stirring up trouble in the Chu family. Xiangxiang has already explained everything you have done behind the scenes."

"The child in your belly and Chu Nanxin are the result of your affair with Chu Ang..."

Aunt Fang looked at Xiangxiang in disbelief, "Xiangxiang, you...how could you betray me?"

There was a slight tremor in Aunt Fang's voice, but more of it was anger and unwillingness.

"Back then, I carried you out from the pile of dead bodies."

Aunt Fang was very scheming. She didn't even trust Chu Ang wholeheartedly. She kept a backup plan and was able to maneuver easily between Chu's father and Chu Ang.

Only Xiangxiang did not hide anything she did from her...

Xiangxiang fell to her knees with a plop, tears streaming down her face. "Auntie, I'm sorry... I want to live."

Death is not scary, but the feeling of going to hell is something that ordinary people cannot endure.

The group of people under the young lady are not human, they are the king of hell...

If you have never experienced the feeling of life and death, you will never know how lucky it is to be alive.

When Aunt Fang heard Xiangxiang's words, she was struck by lightning. Her legs went weak and she almost collapsed to the ground.

She could never have imagined that this maid, whom she regarded as her confidante and carefully nurtured after rescuing her from the dead, would betray her at the critical moment.

"Want to live?" Aunt Fang laughed bitterly, her laughter filled with mockery and despair. "Without me, you would have died long ago. How could you still be alive now?"

"Do you think you can live well by betraying me? The Chu family will not let you go. You can't escape responsibility for what I have done!" Her eyes became crazy, like a female beast that is trapped and fighting after being injured.

Chu Ruohan stepped forward and looked down at Aunt Fang with a cold gaze. "Aunt Fang, at this point, you still want to threaten others? The crimes you've committed are all proven, and no one can save you."

"Tell me, where is Chu Ang?"

"How should I know?" Aunt Fang sneered, "He's a heartless man. I don't know where he's hiding in a rat hole."

At this moment, she regretted not leaving with Chu Ang.

Chu Ruohan looked at her coldly, caught a hint of regret in her expression, and a sarcastic smile appeared at the corner of her mouth.

She leaned forward slightly, her eyes locked tightly with Aunt Fang's, "Do you still want to keep him?"

"Auntie, it has come to this. Don't protect him anymore. He abandoned you a long time ago. You have done so much for him. Is it worth it?"

"I really don't know where he went."

Chu Ruohan stared at Aunt Fang. After a moment, she straightened up and believed what Aunt Fang said.

But it doesn't matter.

Once the news about Aunt Fang and her daughter gets out, there's no need to worry that Chu Ang won't fall into the trap.

Chu Ang was in the dark, she was in the light, and Chu Ruohan was determined to force him out...

It depends on whether this man is cruel or not?
