"Go to hell!" Cui Mixue rushed over and pinched Su Mengyan's neck tightly, "You deserve to die, you shouldn't have shown up."
Su Mengyan really didn't know where she got the strength from. It seemed like she was completely crazy now.
"Let me go!" Su Mengyan was pushed to the railing by her, and half of her body was about to fall down.
The house that the prefect built for them was very exquisite. There was a small lotus pond inside, and a pavilion was built on it.
Now Cui Mixue's eyes were full of murderous intent. She could no longer control herself and only wanted to kill Su Mengyan so that no one could stop her.
"Crazy!" Su Mengyan pulled her hand away with all her strength. "Even if you kill me, it doesn't matter. Everything has already happened. Nothing will change."
"Whether there has been any change or not, you will only know after you die." Cui Mixue was irritated by her words. Hatred and murderous intent intertwined in her eyes, making her look terrifying.
She really wanted to kill herself! Su Mengyan's desire to survive erupted, and she forcibly pried Cui Mixue's hands apart.
Because her injuries had not yet healed, Su Mengyan did not use too much force. After pushing her away, she ran to the middle of the pavilion.
"What are you doing?" Situ Yao suddenly appeared and saw the bruises on Su Mengyan's neck. "What's going on?"
On the other side, Cui Mixue found that Situ Yao didn't even see her at all, and she felt hopeless.
Su Mengyan didn't want to tell tales, so she simply brushed it off with one simple sentence, "It's just some small things."
She turned to look at Cui Mixue, her eyes calm and without any resentment, "Miss Cui, considering you were injured today, I don't want to bother with what happened today anymore."
"But I don't want it to happen again. I'm not a soft persimmon that can be bullied." After Su Mengyan said that, she felt that Cui Mixue wanted to kill her with her eyes.
Su Mengyan ignored her and turned away. After making sure that no one behind her would see her, she finally let go of the seriousness on her face.
It seemed like she and Cui Mixue had completely become enemies. Cui Mixue was the one with the heroine's aura. What would she do in the future? Su Mengyan had completely lost her previous momentum and thought with a worried look on her face.
The best way is to get away from her as soon as possible, or simply leave the palace and stay away from them completely, so that nothing will happen. However, after the failure of her last escape, Su Mengyan felt that her chances of escaping again were too small.
Thinking of the bleak future, Su Mengyan sighed heavily.
"Weren't you very impressive just now?" Situ Yao had caught up with him at some point. "Why are you sighing again now?"
"When did the young master come?" Su Mengyan asked guiltily. I hope he didn't see what she was thinking just now?
Situ Yao stared at her neck for a while, "It came when you sighed."
"Did Cui Mixue cause the bruises on your neck?"
"Uh, is it obvious?" Su Mengyan touched it and it still hurt a little.
She has fair skin, so the marks on her neck from being strangled are very noticeable.
"I should have listened to you earlier and stayed away from her." If Su Mengyan had known that Cui Mixue wanted to kill her, she would never have been so foolish as to approach her.
Situ Yao snorted coldly, "Now you know? That woman is not simple."
When Su Mengyan was injured and inexplicably saw Cui Mixue, Situ Yao felt strange. How could she be there at that time? It was as if she knew in advance which road they would pass by.
After that, Situ Yao checked Cui Mixue's background but found no clues, so the matter was left unresolved.
"Young Master went to see Lin Huaian today?" Su Mengyan didn't want to mention Cui Mixue anymore, so she asked what she wanted to ask before, "Did he tell me where he put the silver?"
"How could he become a gangster when he has such high martial arts skills?" She asked several questions incessantly.
"You're so concerned about him?" Situ Yao's tone was a little off. "Do you think that just because he looks kind, he won't collude with gangsters?"
Su Mengyan looked at him in surprise, wondering what was wrong with him? Why was he speaking so harshly?
Situ Yao also realized that what he said just now was not right. He coughed lightly and said seriously, "Lin Huaian is Situ Zhao's man."
"What?" Su Mengyan opened her mouth in surprise. "Situ Zhaoyuan is in the capital, and he's still meddling here? He's really overreaching."
While speaking, Su Mengyan recalled the contents of the original work in her mind, but she didn't find any connection between Situ Zhao and Luo Heshan.
In the original novel, Situ Yao and his companions fled Luohe Mountain in a panic, and there was no further mention of Luohe Mountain, nor of Lin Huaian. It seems she has triggered another hidden plot?
Situ Yao only told her Lin Huaian's identity and did not tell her any other arrangements.
Su Mengyan asked unhappily, because the question she asked before also had an answer.
Lin Huaian came here on orders, and the missing silver must have been transported to the capital by him.
It’s a pity for the boss of Luohe Mountain. The silver he robbed at the risk of his life ended up being given to others.
"Why is it so noisy outside?" Su Mengyan asked in confusion, "Isn't it nighttime? Why does it feel even louder than during the day?"
This was overheard by the old housekeeper who happened to be passing by. He said with a smile, "Young lady, you may not know that tomorrow is the annual Flower God Festival in Heyang City."
"If it's tomorrow, why does it start tonight?"
"Tonight is a time for young men and women to express their love for each other. The girls hold hand-embroidered sachets, and they can give them to any young man they like. This custom has produced many wonderful couples in Heyang City." Seeing the two of them, the old housekeeper encouraged them, "Why don't you go and see it? You can even make a wish for lovers to be together forever, and it's very effective."
Su Mengyan and Situ Yao weren't lovers, but she was eager to see the Flower Goddess Festival. She thought if tonight was already so lively, wouldn't tomorrow be even more exciting?
Su Mengyan felt that according to Situ Yao's personality, he would definitely not go, so she wanted to go alone, "Master, I think you still have things to deal with, so I won't bother you."
"Wait a minute." Situ Yao asked her with a half-smile, "Have you forgotten what the housekeeper just said? Every girl must have a sachet embroidered by herself. Do you have one?"
"I just came to watch the fun. I didn't fall in love with any young man. It doesn't matter if there is no sachet." Su Mengyan can't do embroidery, so naturally she can't have one.
Situ Yao's face darkened instantly. "Who else does Yan'er want to give the sachet to?"
"If I have to give it to you, of course I'll give it to you, young master." Su Mengyan flattered him promptly. She didn't know how to do it, so she just said it verbally and didn't suffer any loss.
