Chapter 41: Daddy, are you willing to avenge me?
Jiang Nian's dark eyes were fixed on Prime Minister Jiang He.
She was filled with resentment, almost swallowing up everyone.
Liu Qingyin opened her mouth, glanced at Jiang Nian with a look of grievance, bit her lip, and said in a mosquito-like voice, "Miss Jiang is indeed pitiful, but you shouldn't implicate innocent people. If I were Miss Jiang, I would never do such a thing. Every wrong has its perpetrator, and dragging others into this is nothing."
Jiang Nian sneered, raised his hand, and a slap with the water from the Sanzhi River landed on Liu Qingyin's face.
"ah!"
Liu Qingyin covered her face and fell to the ground in pain. Her clothes were covered with white snow. A long, hideous wound suddenly appeared on her face, constantly oozing blood, and even two insects fell off.
A dark aura welled up in Jiang Nian's eyes as he stared at Liu Qingyin intently.
"If you dare say another word, I'll send you down to accompany me immediately!"
She hated this kind of bitch who said one thing and did another the most. This person looked as disgusting as Jiang Rou, who killed her.
She is used to showing off her gentleness, generosity and purity in front of others.
Song Tingchen frowned fiercely, wanting to raise his sword to pierce Jiang Nian's heart, but then he remembered that his sword had been shattered by Su Tan just now.
He looked at Su Tan with a gloomy face, his brows covered with frost and snow, "Su Tan, did you do this on purpose?"
Did she calculate that Jiang Nian would attack Qingyin, so she shattered the sword that could hurt ghosts early on?
Su Tan sneered rudely, "Song Tingchen, if you're blind, go find a doctor. Liu Qingyin committed suicide on her own, what does it have to do with me?"
Her eyes fell on Liu Qingyin, "Miss Liu, you keep saying you are kind and righteous, but I don't think you are as kind as you say."
Jiang Nian stared at Song Tingchen with resentment, then raised his hand and the river water rushed straight towards Song Tingchen.
Song Tingchen frowned. He was a martial artist and his reaction was much faster than Liu Qingyin's. Fortunately, the water did not fall on his face, but a big cut was corroded on his hand, so deep that the bone was visible.
Creepy black bugs fell from his hands.
Everyone gasped in shock.
A thin layer of sweat oozed out of Song Tingchen's forehead. Such pain was undoubtedly torturous.
But he subconsciously looked into Su Tan's eyes.
There was no sadness or joy in Su Tan's eyes.
But she even cast a look of pity on Jiang Nian, and in turn showed a condemning look to Song Tingchen.
"General, Miss Jiang is essentially a pitiful person. Why are you and Miss Liu provoking her here and causing her to attack you?"
Song Tingchen's heart was suddenly filled with a suffocating emotion. He looked at Su Tan, staring at her closely for a long while, but instead of getting angry, he smiled, "Miss Su, I'll remember what you said."
He should never have expected anything from Su Tan.
She had always been extreme in temper.
He always thought that after three years, her mind would be more open.
However, how can a person who has turned to the path of ruthlessness still have compassion for the world?
Cui Wan gave Jiang Nian a thumbs-up without hesitation, "Miss Jiang, well done."
She glanced at Song Tingchen and Liu Qingyin with a gloating expression, her brows relaxed, "Miss Liu and General Song, don't worry, this injury won't accompany you forever."
"In seven days at most, even if you do nothing, it will return to its original state."
Liu Qingyin's eyes were misty with pain, but when she looked pretty and weak, everyone felt sorry for her.
Now that her face was covered with horrific wounds, all that was left was disgust and fear.
"Why did you offend the water ghost for no reason?"
…
"That's right. You dare to say such things even though you know she is a water ghost? If you want to die, don't take us with you!"
…
"Amitabha, Miss Jiang, every wrong has its perpetrator, and every debt has its creditor. You hurt the Liu guy, but you can't hurt us."
In order to protect themselves, the people present stared at Liu Qingyin with condemning eyes, and their words seemed to indicate that she had done something against the law of nature.
What she said might not be false. In fact, at least 90% of the people present probably thought so.
Jiang Nian is very pitiful, but it is wrong to implicate innocent people.
But with the evil ghost in front of them, no one dared to say such words and offend Jiang Nian.
It just so happens that Liu Qingyin is used to stepping on others to highlight herself, and she did so habitually this time. However, Jiang Nian is a female ghost with deep resentment, so how could she indulge her?
Liu Qingyin covered her face and cried softly, her eyes filled with resentment.
She didn't believe that Su Tan couldn't control this water ghost, but the other party just watched Jiang Nian take action.
Did you think that if you ruined her face, Song Tingchen would look at Su Tan more?
dream!
Prime Minister Jiang took two steps back in shock, his fingers digging deep into his palms. He had never expected that the daughter he had always looked down upon would become so difficult to deal with after her death.
Jiang He's eyebrows trembled, and he looked like he was in tears. His eyes were moist and he looked at Jiang Nian with great pain. He almost fainted.
“Nian Nian…”
His voice trembled, as if he had aged nearly ten years overnight.
"Daddy didn't know you had suffered such a great injustice, my poor daughter—"
Jiang He suddenly fell to the ground. The man who was once full of vigor and power now looked like he was about to die, and even his straight back was bent.
"My poor Nian Nian—"
Snow fell on Jiang He. Prime Minister Jiang, second only to the emperor and above all others, wailed in agony at the pale sky, "I'm sorry, Nian Nian. It was Daddy who failed to protect you. You fell into the hands of that mother and daughter!"
Jiang Nian looked at Jiang He coldly, his lips and teeth moving in and out, his voice neither sad nor happy, but it made people feel frightened for no reason.
"Really? Prime Minister Jiang, do you really think so?"
"You really feel sorry for me, and you really think the Ma mother and daughter are cruel?"
The tears on Jiang He's face had not yet disappeared. He stared at Jiang Nian blankly, and suddenly coughed sadly, "Cough cough... cough cough Nian Nian, you... you and your mother look so much alike."
"Do you still remember what your mother looked like? When she was young, she looked like you."
Prime Minister Jiang whimpered, "But...but I couldn't even protect her and my only daughter..."
"Niannian, did it hurt?"
Jiang Nian's tears fell into the lake with a plop. She stared at Jiang He blankly, but her palms were clenched.
"pain……"
Jiang Nian's voice was filled with belated grievance, and he sobbed, "Dad, it hurts so much!"
"They all lied to me, they all wanted me dead, and they even took the dowry my mother left me. Dad, no one loves me. Even Ling Ran lied to me. Dad, I'm so hurt!"
She kept calling out "Dad".
I kept shouting that it hurt.
The onlookers couldn't help but tear up.
In fact, putting aside the fact that she was a water ghost who did many evil things, Jiang Nian was essentially a little girl who was not loved by anyone until her death.
Su Tan lowered her eyes quietly and looked at the cold lake water. No one knew what she was thinking.
“Wuwuwu…”
Liu Qingyin's fragile voice rang out. She covered her wound and looked at Song Tingchen with red eyes. Her choked voice was mixed with the wind and snow. "Brother Tingchen, I miss my father. If my father were still alive, he would definitely ask me at this moment, if it hurts..."
Song Tingchen's heart tightened slightly. Liu Qingyin's father died saving him. If it weren't for him, she wouldn't be so lonely and helpless.
Song Tingchen didn't know what to say, because no matter what he said, Liu Qingyin's parents would never come back.
He could only silently pat Liu Qingyin's shoulder to comfort her.
But the corner of his eyes involuntarily turned to Su Tan.
Su Tan is also a girl who lost both her parents.
But at this moment, Su Tan just looked quietly at the bottom of the river, and no one could see her expression clearly.
Song Tingchen finally withdrew his gaze, his eyes showing neither sadness nor joy.
Whether Su Tan is happy or sad has nothing to do with him.
“Daddy…”
Jiang Nian's voice choked with sobs. She stared straight at Jiang He, her biological father, unwilling to miss any emotion in his eyes. "Daddy, are you willing to avenge me?"
"I died so miserably, and the Ma family mother and daughter hurt me so much. Since Daddy feels sorry for me, are you willing to avenge me?"
Jiang He dug his ten fingers tightly into the snow on the ground, his brows and eyes looking desolate.
The deep anger and hatred almost swallowed him whole. "Of course!"
"My poor daughter has been harmed like this by them. If I sit back and do nothing, I would be unworthy of being a human being!"
“Nian Nian——”
Jiang He wiped the tears from his face and looked at his daughter with a face full of love and deep regret. "You...what are you and Daddy going to do?"
The resentment in Jiang Nian had not dissipated at all. She stared at Jiang He closely and slowly raised the corners of her lips.
"I don't want Daddy to do anything. I just want Daddy to bring Ma's mother and daughter, as well as Ling Ran, to me tomorrow."
Jiang Nian's dark eyes were filled with resentment, and the water of the Sanzhi River seemed to be dyed red with blood at this moment. She opened her mouth, revealing her sharp white teeth, "As long as Daddy lets me vent my anger on these people, I will never do evil again."
"otherwise--"
Jiang Nian tilted his head, his expression innocent, but his words were cruel, "Otherwise, I will kill Daddy too!"
She looked at Jiang He and spoke slowly, "Is it possible that my father wouldn't agree to my tragic death?"
"Or does Daddy love Jiang Rou and Ma more than me?"
Jiang He lowered his eyes, casting a shadow on the snow, and no one could see his expression at the moment.
Jiang Rou had already married into the Mansion of the Duke of Xingguo, and she lived a prosperous life. She spent her days discussing the dirty tricks of the harem with the ladies in the capital.
Showing off yourself will help you win your husband's heart.
How could she still remember Jiang Nian, who was killed by her?
"Daddy, answer me! Are you willing to avenge me?"
"Either you die, or Ma and Ling Ran and Jiang Rou, the adulterous couple, die!"
Looking at Jiang Nian's resentful eyes, Prime Minister Jiang's fingers tightened little by little, "Of course."
"Don't worry, Nian Nian, your father will bring these three people to you tomorrow!"
Jiang Nian snorted coldly, his dark eyes still revealing a fierce gleam, "Father, you'd better not play tricks. None of these mystical masters around you are my match."
Jiang He's voice drifted into the wind and snow, "Revenge for my daughter is what a father should do. Nian Nian, don't worry about it."
