Chapter 488: Past Events (2)
She saw a man in a grey gown approaching.
"Help, help, someone is robbing!"
Liu Manru knew that this might be her only chance, so she mustered up her courage, pushed the man next to her away, and ran towards the man in the gray gown while shouting.
"That night, he saved me." Liu Manru has a nice voice. When she talks about events that happened a hundred years ago, her voice sounds vivid and real.
Listening to her talk about the past, not only the netizens in the live broadcast room, but even the old Taoist priests felt a sense of being involved.
"Later, we spent more and more time in contact with each other, and our feelings for each other grew. In order to have a legitimate opportunity to meet, I lied that I wanted to improve my knowledge and hired him as my private teacher."
"We met almost every day during that year. He was knowledgeable, handsome, gentle, considerate and caring towards me. I couldn't control my emotions and I fell in love with him."
"I confessed to him first, and he responded to me and told me that he had actually fallen in love with me a long time ago."
When talking about the time when they were in love, Liu Manru's eyes revealed sweetness and happiness, and it was obvious that she still missed this relationship very much.
Even though the Yulang she was talking about had already betrayed her.
She was just sad and upset about this.
Nor did he show any anger or hatred.
"After we talked to each other, we confirmed our relationship. Originally, we even set a date for our wedding privately, but an officer fell in love with me."
"That officer sent me flowers, gold, silver and jewelry every day, hoping that I would marry him. I already had a lover, so I naturally refused, so he wanted to force me to marry him."
"Later, the officer found out that Yulang and I were together, so he found a random crime and arrested Yulang and put him in jail."
"He told me that if I wanted Yulang to be safe, I had to agree to marry him. For Yulang, I could only agree to his request first. I thought that after Yulang was released, we would find an opportunity to quietly leave that place of trouble and live somewhere else."
Liu Manru said this with a bitter smile: "Of course, we didn't succeed in leaving. He arranged for people to secretly monitor us from the day he agreed to release Yulang from prison."
"So, that night, as soon as Yulang and I arrived at the dock, we were intercepted by his men."
"He was very angry and had Yulang arrested and severely beaten. Yulang was beaten half to death and had to lie in bed for more than two months before he recovered."
"Afterwards, we tried to escape several times, but he caught us every time."
"I finally realized that as long as he refused to let go, I would never be able to escape from his grasp. In desperation, I made an appointment with Yulang to die together."
"I asked someone to buy arsenic and put it in the wine, which was divided into two bottles. One bottle for me and one for Yulang. We agreed to drink this bottle of poisoned wine together on the seventh day of the seventh month. After we die, no one can separate us, and we can be a loving ghost couple in the underworld."
"But……"
The tears in Liu Manru's eyes silently slid down her face: "I never thought that Yulang would not drink the bottle of poisoned wine because he was afraid of death."
"I never expected that he would act as if nothing had happened and marry another woman and have children just one month after my death."
"I really want to ask him in person whether he really loved me back then? Were the love words he said to me and the vows he made to me sincere?"
