Chapter 150 Killing Greenie
Greenie instantly felt a suffocating sensation.
She struggled desperately and finally managed to pry Wan Wanning's hands off.
Then, he quickly scrambled to his feet, staggered backward, and said in a trembling voice, "Miss Wan Ning...you...you actually tried to strangle me! How vicious! I'm going to tell my wife!"
How can such a vicious person stay by my wife's side!
"Are you going to tell your older sister?"
Wan Wanning felt as if she had been doused with ice water, and instantly regained her senses.
She was too impulsive...
How do I pinch her?
No.
We absolutely must not let her tell Lu Zhaoruo!
At that time, let alone going to the capital, they won't even be able to stay in the boudoir.
Seeing that Lü'er was about to run away, she shouted anxiously, "Lü'er! Stop! Don't go and tell your sister!"
But Greenie was already terrified by her earlier madness and refused to listen.
He hurriedly picked up the bamboo basket, not even bothering to grab the small hoe on the ground, and stumbled down the mountain path.
Wan Wanning's gaze swept over the small hoe left on the ground. Almost without thinking, she bent down, picked it up, and took off after it...
She chased after him, shouting fiercely, "Stop right there! Do you hear me! You're not allowed to tell Lu Zhaoruo, you're not allowed to tell her!"
Hearing the sound, Greenie turned around and saw her chasing after her with a hoe in hand, her face contorted in a ferocious expression. She was even more terrified and ran as fast as she could down the mountain.
However, Wan Wanning was much stronger than the timid Lü'er. Driven by jealousy and fear, she exerted all her strength and caught up with Lü'er in a few steps, grabbing her arm in one go!
"Greenie! I told you not to run away!"
Her voice was hoarse, and her wide eyes were bloodshot.
Greenie felt a chill run down her spine and struggled desperately in panic.
The next second.
Wan Wanning suddenly raised the small hoe in her hand and smashed it hard against the back of Lü'er's head when she was caught off guard!
"Ugh!"
Greenie let out a short, miserable scream, her body stiffened abruptly, and warm blood gushed from her hair, winding down her neck.
She opened her eyes wide in disbelief, then collapsed to the ground, the bamboo basket rolling aside and bamboo shoots scattered all over the floor.
Wan Wanning gasped for breath, looking at the blood-stained hoe in her hand, then at Lü'er on the ground with a pained expression. She was instantly gripped by immense fear, her face turning ashen.
She abruptly threw away the blood-stained hoe, staggered back two steps, and stammered, "Who...who told you to run...I told you not to...not to run..."
Greenie moved her lips with difficulty, her breath weak: "Miss Wan...Ning...you...you actually..."
"No! No!"
Wan Wanning waved her hands frantically, her voice shrill, "You were the one who wanted to run away! You forced me to! It's all your fault!"
She was terrified.
If Greenie goes back and reports this, Lu Zhaoruo, with her cold and ruthless nature, will surely drag her to the authorities!
At that time, not to mention the comfortable days in the boudoir, she will probably be completely disgraced and fall back into the mire of hunger, lack of clothing, and being despised by everyone!
No!
We must never go back to those days!
She held her head, trembling all over.
After a brief breakdown, she looked again at Greenie, whose breath was fading on the ground, and at the expanding pool of dark red blood. The fear in her eyes gradually faded, replaced by a cold calm.
She looked around hurriedly, and after confirming that no one was there, she walked forward step by step and whispered, "Greenie, don't blame me... blame yourself."
After saying that, the last trace of hesitation in her eyes was replaced by ruthlessness. She gritted her teeth, bent down and struggled to lift Greenie's still soft body, dragging her step by step toward the steep cliff edge.
Down the mountain, the waves crashed violently against the rocks, producing a dull roar.
Greenie was powerless to resist.
His eyes were filled with immense fear.
Wan Wanning looked into her eyes, her voice trembling with tears, her face showing a victim's expression: "If you had just stood still and obeyed, how could I have hurt you? Now that you're injured like this, my sister will never forgive me... She's always favored you, and between you and me, she's never chosen me..."
Her voice suddenly turned cold, and a sinister smile appeared on her face: "So... only if you disappear completely, leaving no evidence, will she know nothing... know nothing at all!"
Greenie's vision blurred, and the last thing she saw was Wan Wanning's twisted and ferocious face and the gray sky.
Wan Wanning closed her eyes and pushed with all her might!
That slender figure plummeted straight down, instantly swallowed by the surging seawater, leaving no trace.
She opened her eyes, gazing at the now calm sea, then suddenly covered her mouth and burst into tears, her shoulders trembling violently: "I'm so sorry... Greenie... I didn't want to kill you, I had no choice... I really had no choice... If you had just obeyed me, how could I have..."
Before her crying had stopped, she suddenly came to her senses, hurriedly picked up the blood-stained hoe, and threw it into the sea.
Then, she frantically searched the path, picking up every blood-stained bamboo leaf and pebble, throwing them all off the cliff, and checking repeatedly until there was nothing unusual on the road.
Finally, she carefully gathered the scattered bamboo shoots back into the bamboo basket and placed them in the most dangerous spot on the edge of the cliff, meticulously creating the impression of someone hastily picking bamboo shoots and slipping and falling.
Having done all this, she gazed at the sea that had swallowed Greenie, and murmured softly, her voice calm: "Greenie... go in peace... I will live on for you... I will remember the kindness you showed me in the past..."
A mountain breeze swept by, carrying her words.
She glanced one last time at the abyss, then turned away resolutely.
——
She slipped back to the embroidered tower silently, avoiding everyone's gaze, and slipped into her small room in the backyard.
She bolted the door shut and immediately rushed to the basin, scrubbing her hands almost frantically, as if trying to wash away the blood and the chill of the cliff edge.
She quickly changed out of her clothes, which were covered in dust and grass clippings, carefully folded them, and stuffed them into the bottom of the trunk.
After doing all this, she took a few deep breaths in front of the bronze mirror, tried her best to force a familiar, docile smile, and practiced it several times until she could not see any flaws before pushing the door open and going out.
She deliberately went around to the courtyard and saw Abao squatting under the eaves playing with the little flower ball that Lü'er had sewn for him.
Wan Wanning smiled and leaned closer, saying softly, "Abao, what are you playing? Come on, I'll play with you, okay?"
As he spoke, he reached out to touch its fluffy little head.
Abao suddenly shrank back and nimbly dodged to the side, his emerald green cat eyes glaring at her warily, revealing undisguised disgust.
It lowered its head, picked up its beloved little flower ball, flicked its tail, and turned to leave.
From the day Wan Wanning stepped into the boudoir, A Bao had been very distant from her.
Because it is, after all, a cat, Wan Wanning would unabashedly reveal her meanness and jealousy in front of it.
Therefore, Abao never got close to her.
It prefers to curl up in Dongrou's gentle embrace or playfully chase the colorful thread in Lü'er's hand.
At this moment, it wanted to go and play with Greenie.
Wan Wanning's outstretched hand froze in mid-air, and the smile on her face instantly turned ugly.
It was clearly just an animal, but its eyes showed the same disgust as a human's!
You little brat! You really think you're the master now?
She cursed inwardly, but on the surface, she could only slowly withdraw her hand, barely maintaining that submissive appearance, and instructed, "Abao, be careful."
Watch out, they might stew you one day!
