Lin Yue stepped forward, kicked the man away, and pulled out the dagger she was carrying, saying, "Get out, or I'll kill you!"
The man looked at the dagger flashing with cold light and ran away in fear.
Lin Yue turned around, and when Su Yingyue saw her, her eyes changed and she quickly pulled up her clothes and was about to run.
Lin Yue said: "I know where Chifeng is."
Su Yingyue stopped immediately after hearing this.
She turned her head, stared at Lin Yue suspiciously, and asked, "Didn't you kill him?"
Lin Yue said: "The one who killed him was not me, but Wang Huaiqing. He wanted to take over Chi Feng's cultivation, so he took action."
Su Yingyue had already had her suspicions, and after hearing what Lin Yue said, she said, "If he's dead, what use is he to me?"
Lin Yue frowned and said calmly, "He's an outlier, so it's normal that you don't treat him as your son. I have a deal now. If you can help me, I can give you some money."
Su Yingyue said, "I want one hundred thousand taels."
Lin Yue said: "Okay."
Su Yingyue's expression finally softened upon hearing this, and she said, "What do you want me to do?"
Lin Yue looked at her, her pupils becoming dark, and she said meaningfully, "Of course, you have to show off your unique skills."
"acting."
Su Yingyue's eyes changed, and she soon realized that Lin Yue was referring to the fact that she said one thing in front of the prince and another behind his back.
But she didn't think she had done anything wrong to Lin Yue, so she said, "Which woman would allow her husband to be missed, and by her stepmother? I admit that I misled Wang Huaiqing and made him think that I was tortured by you."
"But even if I don't do that, can you be together?"
"If you want to settle this account now, isn't it too late?"
Lin Yue said, "It's not too late at all. I'm not the Lin Yue you used to bully. She died in a scam set up by the people around her, and you let her know the truth."
"When she died, she no longer had any attachment to Wang Huaiqing."
"Just like Wang Huaiqing is dead now, you don't feel anything at all. Those are all things of the past."
After hearing this, Su Yingyue softened her tone and said, "Then what kind of play do you want me to play?"
Lin Yue slowly uttered two words: "Mother."
Su Yingyue heaved a sigh of relief when she heard this and said, "Okay."
Lin Yue took out half of the banknote and gave it to her: "This is the deposit."
Su Yingyue was not as happy as she had imagined after receiving the money. Instead, she looked at the long street, as if wondering what she could buy with the money.
Lin Yue said: "As far as I know, Chifeng has given you a lot of money. You are not someone who really needs money, but you have come to this point. I can only say that you may have walked into a dead end."
"This path is blocked. I suggest you try another one. Otherwise, no matter how much money you have, the outcome will be the same."
After Lin Yue finished speaking, she was about to leave.
Su Yingyue was unwilling to accept this. Holding the money in her hands, she asked, "Tell me, if Nanny Wang hadn't replaced Xiao Qingyi, would I have been able to become a true Crown Prince's Consort instead of a joke?"
Lin Yue said: "You have never been a joke. There are many people who sympathize with you, otherwise you would not be alive today."
"Just look at what happened to Wang Huaiqing and Princess Yun Duo."
"Also, if Nanny Wang didn't replace Xiao Qingyi, you would be the least likely to become the Crown Prince's Consort."
Su Yingyue was dissatisfied and asked loudly, "Why? How do you know I won't become the Crown Prince's Consort?"
Lin Yue said, "Because Xiao Qingyi will follow his father to the battlefield, and you, the eldest daughter of the Su family, a woman who intends to change her own destiny through marriage, it is impossible for you to wait for Xiao Qingyi to return."
"Take a good look at yourself. Is it fate that's unfair to you, or do you think that only by marrying can you be superior to others? Only by sitting in that position can you be a noble and respectable person."
Lin Yue left after she finished speaking. Su Yingyue squatted there, holding the banknotes and burst into tears.
She has money, lots of money.
She used to be very rich and would hang around in the store without stopping.
She liked to see the shopkeepers' expressions as they carefully served her, she liked to see the waiters busy serving tea and water, and she liked it even more... they all respectfully called her Madam.
It seems that everything is the same as before.
But she knew in her heart that these were all illusions she created.
I can’t go back, I really can’t go back.
Wang Huaiqing is dead.
The son she could rely on also died.
In the end, it was Lin Yue who took the money, stood in front of her, and told her that all her extravagant hopes were nothing but self-deception.
Even if Nanny Wang had not been replaced, someone with Xiao Qingyi's personality would definitely follow Xiao Jingyun into battle.
Chi Feng once told her that Xiao Qingyi died on the battlefield.
There is no fate with her.
But she would rather sink herself into the quagmire, blind all ears and eyes, and would rather rot and assimilate than accept the facts.
The real Lin Yue died long ago, and she was freed long ago.
Only I have been staying where I am and refusing to come out.
Su Yingyue looked down at the banknotes in her arms. There were so many of them.
It was much more than her dowry at the beginning.
Lin Yue was right, she was not short of money.
She has always known that even when she was in the most difficult and poor times, she understood that she could still survive by tearing off her face.
But she can't tear off her own skin, but allows others to tear off her clothes?
It's really ridiculous!
How ridiculous!
Su Yingyue wiped away her tears and took the banknotes to buy some decent clothes.
This time... she did not spend money lavishly as usual, squandering it like water and showing off her wealth.
Instead, she spent twenty taels to buy some decent clothes. Then, looking at herself in the mirror, she said slowly, "No tip this time."
