Chapter 123 I haven't changed, I've just seen through you (2/2)



That's right, these are all his thoughts, his ideas, and the things he does.

How did Shi Murou find out so quickly?

She was so foolish, so stupid, always obediently listening to him, but now every word she uttered, every sentence she said, exposed his intentions.

"That's not how it is. You must have misunderstood me, Rou'er, listen to me—" Shen Liang quickly tried to explain.

"That's enough," Shi Murou interrupted him.

"You should be grateful that you can stand here safely now."

“My grandfather and my parents already know what kind of person you are. They want to kill you, or at least cripple you. I stopped them because of our past relationship. I promised them that I would never have anything to do with you again and that I would never give you a chance to hurt me.”

"You've survived unharmed, and there's nothing wrong with you. That's the best outcome you could hope for after you schemed against me and the Shi family."

"Shen Liang, I never want to see you again. Take care of yourself."

After finishing speaking, Shi Murou turned and left without looking back.

But as she stepped out of the courtyard, her eyelashes trembled, and glistening water droplets shimmered.

Thinking back on the past few months of tender companionship, her heart still aches, but having seen through Shen Liang's true nature, she will never turn back.

"Rou'er, Rou'er, don't go! How am I supposed to live? Cough cough cough—"

Shen Liang hurriedly chased after her, tripped at the door, and coughed and pleaded, but Shi Murou did not stop. He could only watch helplessly as she went further and further away and disappeared around the corner.

Seeing this, the two children naturally followed suit.

Shen Liang stared intently in that direction. He felt that his long-planned scheme was being ruthlessly shattered as he got closer and closer to his goal, just like a dream.

He gritted his teeth, grabbed the doorframe, and slowly got up from the ground.

Originally, he shielded Shi Murou from the snake's attack, which made Shi Murou love him even more, and the Shi family valued him more. This was the expected outcome, and also the outcome he had envisioned.

Why did something happen at this crucial juncture?

Something must have happened somewhere he couldn't see.

Who wants to harm him? Who is deliberately messing with him?

If the Shen family went to the Qiao family to ask Qiao Xi'er to be their concubine, and this was seen by the villagers, Shi Murou would hear the news.

Furthermore, the Shen family boasted about finding the only daughter of a wealthy family, and their careless words reached Shi Murou's ears.

So how did Shi Murou know about the venomous snake? That day, he was certain that he was the only one who went to the snake-catching family; no one followed him.

Shen Liang sat at the doorway, thinking for a long time, racking his brains, but to no avail.

He didn't realize that what made Shi Murou so disheartened was the stuff the villagers were saying.

But he insisted on thinking about the venomous snakes because he felt that he could find a breakthrough there.

Or perhaps he wanted to find the person hiding in the shadows and have that person undo all that and make up for his losses.

Those who passed by looked at Shen Liang with suspicion, thinking that he was not quite normal.

A well-dressed young master, looking so disheveled and dejected.

Shen Liang yelled a few times, clenched his fists and pounded the ground until his hands bled. He suddenly stood up, his eyes blazing with anger, and staggered out of the courtyard, stopping a passing carriage on the street.

"Go to Datian Village."
