Chapter 48 Not everyone in the world will like Yu Sui
What bothered Mei Liangyu the most was that night when he rushed to the sanctuary, only to be stopped outside by his master and not allowed to enter.
After Yu Sui came out of the main hall of the Holy Temple, he could use the Five Elements Qi and cultivate the Nine Schools of Arts, no longer being a person of ordinary arts.
The key point actually came that night.
If Yu Sui hadn't been able to seal the Breath of Earth and learn the Eight Trigrams Life Technique on this day, perhaps on the day of the attack on the outer city, the Strange Fire wouldn't have been able to strengthen the Nine Streams Technique, and instead, like the first time, it would have directly burned people to ashes.
It is astonishing enough that someone who was originally a mediocre practitioner could transform into a sorcerer capable of cultivation.
However, his master did not let him know Yu Sui's secret, and Mei Liangyu did not investigate further. Even if Yu Sui said one thing to his face and another behind his back, he did not care, because his master could keep him in check.
Everyone has some secrets they don't know.
Mei Liangyu knew that Nian Qiuyan was reminding him that seeing Yu Sui tonight was not a coincidence. Even if Yu Sui was not directly involved, she was indirectly involved.
“It is indeed strange that this situation occurs when using the divine wood divination sticks.” Mei Liangyu pointed at the divine wood divination stick in Nian Qiuyan’s palm and pondered, “Even if Junior Sister was involved, she should have no ill intentions, otherwise Master would have intervened.”
Nian Qiuyan nodded and said, "I think so too. I can't imagine why your junior sister would attack you, unless you bullied her because of your senior brother status."
Mei Liangyu raised her hands from the medicine, removed the bandage and re-bandaged them, casually saying, "She's not so easy to bully."
Whether Yu Sui's appearance was a coincidence or had any significance, Mei Liangyu didn't care much, since he meant no harm anyway. What interested him slightly was the person who would eliminate his Ninth-Rank Technique tonight.
“It must be Divine Strategist Technique,” Nian Qiuyan said thoughtfully. “The Famous School is quite good at eliminating the supernatural abilities of others’ Ninth-Class Techniques, but they can’t do it to this extent. The Golden Lightning and Void Constellation General you used are all Heavenly Strategist Techniques from various schools, but they were eliminated the moment they were used. This is already considered the strength of a Saint of the Famous School.”
“There couldn’t possibly be a Saint among those people tonight. If a Saint wanted to kill Mei Mei, his master wouldn’t have remained silent.” Cang Shu changed Mei Liangyu’s medicine and added, “If it’s Divine Strategist Technique, it could be ‘Heavenly Official’ or ‘Six Paths’.”
Nian Qiuyan put away the divine wood talisman and said, "These two are both top-ranked divine techniques, and they can also break through other people's low-level techniques."
"The Divine Mechanism Technique does not require the use of the Five Elements, but he initially carried out the elimination in the dark, probably by communicating with Wei Kun through the Wind Listening Ruler. In other words, he did not dare to reveal to Wei Kun that he possessed the Divine Mechanism Technique."
Mei Liangyu recalled, "But he didn't make a move when he was eliminating the Nine Streams Technique, and it even failed once in the middle. If the master of the Shadow Devourer hadn't almost died, he probably wouldn't have made a move at all."
“There are distance and usage restrictions. While performing the elimination technique, one cannot use the Five Elements Qi to materialize the Nine Streams Technique.” Nian Qiuyan nodded and said, “That is the ninth-ranked Heavenly Official.”
Records of various divine techniques vary in number, some are very detailed, while others are only a few sentences long, because too few people know about or have seen them, or because those who possess these divine techniques have never revealed their abilities to the world.
Yu Sui listened downstairs as Shi Yuezhen told her the key to calming the mind and promoting sleep. Her eyes followed Shi Yuezhen as she picked up medicine and wrote, but what she was really looking at was the second-floor screen monitored by the Five Elements Light Core.
Listening to her senior brothers discuss Gu Gan's divine divination techniques, their final guess was the same as hers.
Gu Gan probably believed that tonight's operation would definitely succeed. Relying on his divine ability and the Heavenly Official's power, he thought that Mei Liangyu was doomed. Although he had eliminated Mei Liangyu's various low-level skills several times, he still underestimated this man.
Mei Liangyu wasn't stupid, and none of the people around him were either. They had all risen to the rank of A-level disciple through their own talent and hard work, and they weren't stopping there; they were continuing to move forward. As long as they exchanged information, it would be easy to find each other.
If Mei Liangyu had died, there wouldn't be these troubles. It's a pity that Mei Liangyu didn't die.
“Heavenly Official, the Divine Strategist Technique, ranked ninth, has quite a few people who covet it.” Mei Liangyu raised an eyebrow slightly, a wicked smile appearing on his handsome face. “I don’t even need to lift a finger to spread this news; plenty of people will help me find him.”
Anyway, the academy will announce that he killed Wei Kun tonight, which indirectly helps him spread the word that someone possesses the Divine Strategist Heavenly Official.
“You lost points too,” Cang Shu said.
Mei Liangyu said nonchalantly, "I'll make up for it by spending a few days on the island."
“I think you’ll need to rest for a while,” Cang Shu said again, “at least a month.”
Mei Liangyu frowned, somewhat displeased, but there was nothing he could do.
"Is Yuezhen still on duty at the clinic this month?" Nian Qiuyan asked Cang Shu.
Mei Liangyu also looked at him: "I have never seen a medical disciple guard a clinic for two months straight, and it's always her alone. There are so many top-level medical disciples, and not a single one of them comes?"
Cang Shu looked somewhat helpless and said, "The competition among medical practitioners is the greatest, and they have the most to learn. Guarding the medical clinic is a waste of time for most medical practitioners. Sometimes, the disciples guarding the medical clinic can't go to the Hundred Families Night Parade or other trials because of time constraints, so not many people are willing to do it."
Only disciples below the first rank who want to practice are willing to come, but they can't stay for more than a few days because they have much more to learn and are very busy.
Mei Liangyu said coldly, "No matter how many people she saves while guarding the clinic, she won't get a single penny. Tell her to stop guarding it. If the disciple doesn't guard it, there are instructors."
“Standing guard at the clinic is a mandatory task for top-tier disciples of the Medical Clan, yet she’s the only one doing it now,” Nian Qiuyan said with a smile. “Could it be that the other disciples in the Medical Clan are trying to slow down Yuezhen’s cultivation speed through this method?”
Mei Liangyu soaked her bandaged hands in the medicine again: "One or two might be possible, but if none of them come, it's not as simple as just trying to slow down her cultivation speed."
Cang Shu said slowly, "Although I don't seem very happy, she seems to have her own ideas. Since she doesn't ask me for help, I can't just do anything rash."
After hearing this, Yu Sui couldn't help but turn her gaze back to Shi Yuezhen, who was standing in front of the medicine cabinet, opening a drawer and looking down at the medicine.
A few days ago, while she was practicing outside the medical school, she saw many newly entered disciples of the Ding level. They were just beginning their studies and were completely bewildered by what the instructors were saying about various medicinal herbs, the scars and aftereffects of the Nine Schools of Medicine.
They were all very busy, frantically writing in class or exchanging notes with a wind-reading stick to record key points.
The next room was a class for C-level disciples. The injured disciple was brought to the class by the instructor to personally demonstrate how to use the five elements to guide and alleviate the injury, while the injured disciple screamed in pain during the demonstration.
Doctors are indeed very busy, and the competition is fierce.
Shi Yuezhen's rise to the rank of Class A disciple, coupled with her mastery of the medical school's secret techniques, already places her among the top medical disciples of Taiyi Academy.
Would someone like that still be ostracized by disciples of the medical school?
Yu Sui placed her hands on the table, clasped them together, and leaned her head to look at Shi Yuezhen in front of her. She asked softly, "Sister Yuezhen, why have you been on duty at the clinic for so long? Don't the other top-level disciples come?"
Shi Yuezhen, with her back to her, smiled gently and said, "They are busy cultivating and don't have time to come here."
"It's been almost two months. Aren't top-level disciples required to be on duty at the clinic?" Yu Sui said softly, full of confusion. Shi Yuezhen turned around and looked at the girl with her face buried in her arms, thinking she was as cute as a curious kitten.
“It’s fine if they don’t come. We’re not busy lately. If the clinic gets too busy, I’ll call someone.” Shi Yuezhen smiled and said, “Besides, there’s nothing wrong with staying at the clinic.”
Yu Sui saw that her senior sister was not the kind of person who would just swallow her anger when bullied, but had her own ideas, so she didn't ask any more questions to avoid arousing suspicion.
Shi Yuezhen prepared a bowl of calming herbal soup for her to drink. Although her insomnia at night was caused by the strange fire, Yu Sui still squeezed her nose and drank the bowl of bitter medicine.
She didn't want to go back to the dormitory and stare at Gu Gan and his gang, so she lay down on the small bed in the cubicle on the first floor, took out the Wind Listening Ruler, and asked Li Jinshuang, that unlucky guy, when he was going to return to the dormitory.
Li Jinshuang was breaking through the enemy's armor formation when she received a message from Yu Sui. She pursed her lips, read it for a while, and then replied with her finger: "Good morning."
"Shall we eat together?" Yu Sui said. "I haven't gone back to the clinic yet. Let's go to the dining hall after you're done with your work."
Li Jinshuang hesitated.
She recalled Shu Chujun's words, which meant that the Holy Maiden should not get too close to the Princess of Qingyang.
Princess Qingyang hadn't done anything outrageous and probably had no grudges against them, so Li Jinshuang didn't understand why they were doing this. Shu Chujun glared at her and muttered, "It's rare for the Holy Maiden to develop feelings for a man. She's only just fallen for him when Princess Qingyang, who has a deep relationship with Gu Gan, arrives. Do you still want to be on good terms with her?"
If that man is Gu Gan, Li Jinshuang thinks the saintess's judgment is not very good.
When Li Jinshuang occasionally saw Gu Gan and Yu Sui walking together or having a meal in the dining hall, she would think, "This man will definitely not only marry one wife. If the Holy Maiden likes him, what will happen to Nangong Sui?"
Looking at Yu Sui's letter, countless thoughts raced through Li Jinshuang's mind. Although she didn't think that keeping her distance from Princess Qingyang was the Holy Maiden's intention, she still declined Yu Sui's invitation.
Li Jinshuang put away the Listening Wind Ruler. Although she was the one who rejected the person, she felt uneasy inside. She had decided not to look at the Listening Wind Ruler anymore, but she couldn't help herself.
She plunged headlong into the newly opened ranks of soldiers, no longer thinking about these things.
Instead of worrying about who the Holy Maiden likes, you should think about your own sword spirit.
Although Yu Sui was rejected by Li Jinshuang, she was not too surprised.
As dawn broke, the scorching heat of the strange fire subsided. Yu Sui raised her hand to fan herself with a cool breeze. Hearing Mei Liangyu coming down from outside, she also lifted the curtain and went out.
Mei Liangyu's hands were wrapped in white bandages, and her neck and other parts under her clothes were also wrapped. It was a familiar sight, and Yu Sui couldn't help but think that she had looked almost the same last month.
Yu Sui greeted him first: "Senior Brother".
Seeing that she was still energetic, as if she hadn't slept at all, Mei Liangyu asked, "You didn't sleep?"
"No." Yu Sui shook her head.
Mei Liangyu: "Didn't I prescribe medicine for you?"
"It might not work for a while," Yu Sui said. "You have to keep drinking it."
Mei Liangyu looked her over and said, "Then you should keep drinking it."
Yu Sui nodded and walked out with him, then looked back at the clinic: "Senior brother, are you going back to your dormitory? Do you want me to go to the dining hall and bring you some breakfast?"
"No need, I'll just go back and change my clothes and leave. I won't be at the academy for the next couple of days," Mei Liangyu said lazily.
Yu Sui asked, puzzled, "Where is Senior Brother going?"
Mei Liangyu: "Go and accumulate points."
After he finished speaking, he suddenly remembered something, narrowed his eyes, and stopped in his tracks, saying, "The clothes you gave me are still at the clinic. What, do you want me to wash them clean and return them to you, or do you want me to buy you a new one?"
Mei Liangyu's words had a somewhat playful tone.
Yu Sui shook her head: "I don't want it."
Mei Liangyu: "That looks very expensive."
Yu Sui waved her hand generously: "It's okay, I have money, I won't feel bad about buying as many as I want."
Mei Liangyu thought to himself, "I'm not asking you to buy it again," but seeing Yu Sui's smiling eyes and the expression on her face that said, "I really don't need this little bit of money," he held back.
Yu Sui followed behind him and asked, "Senior brother, do you like it? I can too..."
Mei Liangyu interrupted her: "I don't like it."
Yu Sui blinked: "Oh."
Mei Liangyu pressed her tongue against her sharp teeth and hesitated for a moment before finally speaking, "Spend less money on men and more on yourself. I think those new dresses you bought are very pretty; you can buy more."
Yu Sui smiled and said, "I also think the dresses this time are all very beautiful."
Because she didn't want to go back to the dormitory and deal with Gu Gan, she parted ways with Mei Liangyu on the way and went to the dining hall to eat by herself.
The table was laden with food, and Yu Sui calmly held her bowl and drank her porridge.
The wind chime was buzzing; it was Zhong Lique sending her a message saying that he had taken Su Feng to the clinic to see the Little Medical Saint and they were on their way.
Zhong Lique said, "My mother's birthday is in a few days. She wants to invite Sister Chu to the mansion for a banquet, but I feel uncomfortable with the resemblance to Prince Nangong. I'm afraid I'm just being paranoid, so I asked Second Brother Su to come with me to see if I'm the only one who feels this way."
With a small piece of breakfast meat pie dangling from her mouth, Yu Sui looked down at the document and tapped the crossword puzzle with one hand: "Is Second Brother with you right now?"
Zhong Lique, sitting in the carriage, looked up at Su Feng sitting opposite him. The man had shed his youthful naiveté; his once lively and spirited eyes were now calmer and more composed, yet he still retained a touch of boyish charm.
Su Feng sat with his arms crossed, leaning against the car window, looking out. When he noticed Zhong Lique's gaze, he raised an eyebrow and looked back at her: "What did she say?"
Zhong Lique held out the wind-listening ruler in his hand and honestly asked, "Ask Brother Su if you're with me."
Su Feng gave a light hum, took the Wind-Listening Ruler from her, and replied to Yu Sui, "At this point, you can even remember whether I'm here or not?"
Finally, she asked Yu Sui how she was doing in Taiyi, whether she was eating and dressing well, and whether Sheng Fei was throwing a tantrum at her again because of Gu Gan's matter, etc.
After answering their questions one by one, Yu Sui then told them about Qian Ying: "When I saw her yesterday, she was already a first-class disciple of the Taiyi Academy's medical family."
Zhong Lique gently covered her mouth, opened her eyes wide, and was very surprised. This change was really big.
She also remembered Qian Ying, who was Gu Gan's younger sister whom Yu Sui had taken care of at the Prince's Mansion.
The day after Yu Sui fell into the water, the news spread throughout the aristocratic circles, and many people were still talking about it at the National Academy.
Those children who disliked Yu Sui because of Gu Gan would deliberately laugh loudly as they walked past Yu Sui.
From that time on, Zhong Lique disliked Gu Gan very much, yet she knew about Gu Gan's relationship with the Nangong family, and Yu Sui could not separate herself from him.
Gu Gan wasn't in the capital at the time. Coincidentally, Yu Sui's eldest brother, Han Bing, returned from Taiyi Academy the next day. At that time, Han Bing was nineteen years old and already a tall and upright adult man. He was mature and steady since childhood and took good care of his two younger brothers and sisters.
After learning about this, he first beat up the young noblemen who had instigated the fight, and a few days later he stole the limelight from the Crown Prince at the hunting grounds, winning the favor of Emperor Qingyang, who praised him repeatedly, and then bestowed the bow and arrows that the Crown Prince wanted upon Han Bing.
Prince Qingyang was so angry that he left his seat on the spot.
By the time Gu Gan returned to avenge Yu Sui, it was already too late.
Han Bing kept telling Sheng Fei to restrain himself and not to always clash with Gu Gan, but Sheng Fei sometimes just couldn't control himself.
Su Feng felt that he was completely blinded by jealousy. When they were young, he was the child who liked Nangong Ming the most, but when they grew up, Sheng Fei was the child who cared about Nangong Ming the most.
When his two older brothers were around, Sheng Fei could be kept in check, but after he went to Taiyi Academy and his eldest brother Han Bing left the academy, Gu Gan came, and no one could keep him in check anymore.
Sheng Fei later met Qian Ying at the academy, and the two disliked each other. Especially during the time when Qian Ying was on duty at the clinic, Sheng Fei would rather be in excruciating pain than go to the clinic.
He couldn't stand the way Qian Ying chased after Gu Gan calling him "Brother Gu," which always reminded him of his unjustly conceived sister.
During the Hundred Schools Night Trial at the academy, it was inevitable that they would run into each other a few times. With old grudges from their childhood combined, Sheng Fei had been tricked by Qian Ying many times using her medical pupil technique. He absolutely hated Qian Ying. This crazy woman was willing to do anything for Gu.
Sheng Fei played a significant role in Qian Ying's dislike of the Nangong family.
Su Feng replied, "Your third brother is probably having a hard time, but don't worry about him. Let him suffer a bit."
Zhong Lique replied, "Since Gu Gan took Qian Ying to Taiyi, still has contact with Xiang Feifei, and even works with the Holy Maiden of Nan Jing Kingdom, he's really a womanizer!"
Yu Sui smiled and said, "Yes."
Zhong Lique angrily pressed the crossword puzzle: "Sui Sui, you should also teach him a lesson!"
Yu Sui thought that after his senior brother exposed Gu Gan's Divine Strategist Technique, his life would probably not be easy.
Zhong Lique said to Su Feng, "I'm really afraid that Prince Nangong will marry Sui Sui to Gu Gan."
“I definitely disagree,” Su Feng said.
Zhong Lique sighed, "But this kind of thing is difficult to handle once Prince Nangong agrees."
“You’re worrying too far ahead,” Su Feng said, raising an eyebrow slightly. “If Father really wanted to do that, I would be the first to assassinate Gu Gan.”
He added in his mind that even if that day really came, there would be many people in the capital who would try their best to ruin the marriage. If they couldn't ruin the marriage, then the number of people who wanted to kill Gu Gan would only increase.
Although Chu Jin's clinic in the capital was in a bustling area, the surrounding area was quiet because the surrounding shops were all selling calligraphy, paintings and jade. Usually, few people came; those who did come were either wealthy people looking for something new or regular customers.
After her clinic opened, the street became lively, with people coming to the clinic every day to get medicine or treatment.
Many of them were low-level sorcerers, and Chu Jin also treated ordinary people, so everyone praised her for her kind face and soft heart, calling her a living bodhisattva.
This was Su Feng's first time visiting the clinic. After getting off the carriage, he glanced at the signboard and looked up, catching a glimpse of a white figure walking past the second-floor railing.
Before long, the white-clad figure arrived in the lobby downstairs, greeting Zhong Li Que with a smile: "Miss Zhong Li."
"Sister Chu, I've brought you a guest today," Zhong Lique introduced, standing next to Su Feng. "I don't understand his problem either, so I've brought him here to you, Sister Chu, for your help."
Su Feng calmly observed the woman before him. She seemed to be around his age, with smiling, watery eyes and the gentle and approachable demeanor of a healer. To possess such an aura, she must have at least cultivated a healer's pupil technique and be at least at the fifth level of strength.
"Come over here." Chu Jin led the person to the consultation table on the side. When she was tidying up the table, her white sleeves lightly swept across the table, revealing her fair hands. When listening to Su Feng's story, her eyebrows and eyes were focused and calm, and she asked questions carefully.
Seeing her writing a prescription on paper, Su Feng feigned curiosity and asked, "Does Doctor Chu usually use her pupil technique to treat people?"
"Although I have mastered the pupil technique, my skills are still lacking, and I would never dare to try it lightly." Chu Jin was still writing the prescription, his eyes fixed on the black and white words on the paper, but he smiled and said, "I usually just earn a little money to make ends meet."
Su Feng propped his chin on one hand and asked with a smile, "I heard before that Physician Chu came to the Prince's Mansion to help treat Aunt Su's old illness. My aunt has been ill for many years. If it weren't for the fact that the physician's pupil technique is not good enough, she wouldn't even be able to enter the gate of the Prince's Mansion. Physician Chu is probably being too modest."
Chu Jin was taken aback, and looked up blankly at Zhong Li Que. Zhong Li Que then said, "This is the second son of the Prince's Mansion."
"So it's the Second Prince." Chu Jin smiled, then shook his head slightly. "However, although I went to the Prince's Mansion that day, I didn't see the Madam. I suppose the Madam found out that my pupil technique was not good, so she didn't meet me."
Su Feng asked in surprise, "Wasn't it Aunt Su who invited Doctor Chu?"
"I only received an invitation from the Prince's residence," Chu Jin shook his head. "I don't know who sent it."
She got up and handed the prescription to the female doctor at the clinic to get the medicine. Standing at the corner upstairs, she said to Zhongli Que and Su Feng, "The massage teaching room is full of women. It may be inconvenient for the Second Prince to enter. Please wait here for a moment."
Zhong Lique greeted Su Feng and then followed Chu Jin up to the second floor.
Su Feng remained seated, his gaze following the two as they ascended to the second floor. His expression was calm and unreadable. After a moment, he turned his gaze and carefully surveyed his surroundings.
Zhong Lique arrived at the second-floor room, where several female doctors were already preparing a massage ointment.
"Wasn't that invitation sent by Madam Su?" Zhong Lique asked curiously.
Chu Jin smiled and shook her head: "No, it really isn't. At first, I heard that the Prince's Mansion had sent me an invitation to see a doctor, and I thought it was the Princess extending an invitation for her mother."
Zhong Lique paused in her holding of the medicine pot, and gently lowered her eyes.
It can't be Sui Sui.
"Later I heard that the Princess of the Prince's Mansion had gone to Taiyi Academy, so it can't be the Princess." Chu Jin gracefully rolled up her sleeves and helped Zhong Li Que straighten her sleeves as well, and said softly, "However, Madam Su has been ill for many years. As her only child, if the Princess didn't go to Taiyi Academy, she should have found someone to treat Madam Su."
Zhong Lique gently raised her eyes to look at the person in front of her who was rolling up her sleeves, and pursed her lips in silence.
The most foolish and regrettable thing she ever did in her life was trying to make Yu Sui and Madam Su closer.
When they were both thirteen or fourteen years old, Zhong Lique always felt that the relationship between Madam Su and Yu Sui at banquets was not like that of mother and daughter.
Why doesn't Madam Su like Mingming and Suisui, who are so adorable?
Zhong Lique even suspected that Yu Sui Sui was not Madam Su's biological child, but the truth was that she was wrong. Yu Sui was indeed Madam Su and Nangong Ming's child.
She felt that Yu Sui was so wonderful that no one in the world could dislike her.
That year, the palace held a flower-viewing banquet. The innocent and carefree girls in the capital loved the flower-viewing banquet held every three years. At that time, fresh and exotic flowers cultivated in various places would be brought to the palace for them to admire and play with.
Both main halls in the palace were filled with flowers of different colors. On the day of the flower viewing banquet, farmers and sorcerers from all walks of life would give people seeds of spiritual flowers to plant and play with.
Plant the seeds of the sacred flower given by the farmer, sprinkle them with water, and they will bloom in 15 minutes.
The palace even specially laid out several acres of land so that these children could grow flowers and play with them.
Because after growing beautiful flowers and giving them to her mother, she saw her mother smiling happily, and the other ladies were also happy to receive flowers from their children, Zhongli Que asked Yu Sui to also get the spirit flower seeds and then use the flowers she grew to make Lady Su happy.
Yu Sui didn't think this trick would work on Madam Su, but she herself was quite interested in playing with the spirit flower seeds given by the farmer, so she scattered a large area and waited patiently.
Zhong Lique went to help her lure Madam Su and the others over.
The plan was originally quite good.
When a large patch of long-stemmed, green-leaved golden sunflowers sprouted in the field, Yu Sui felt a chill run down his spine.
It was too late when she tried to destroy it and replant it.
When Zhong Lique arrived with Madam Su and the others, everyone was amazed by the lush and beautiful sunflowers. While they were praising Princess Nangong, Madam Su stood there and, for the first time outside, gave Yu Sui a cold look.
Yu Sui could only pretend to be stupid, acting as if she knew nothing, gently tugging at the flower petals, and looking at Madam Su with an obedient expression.
Madam Su walked step by step toward Yu Sui in the flower field.
Zhong Lique only then realized that something was wrong. Before Madam Su could speak, a premonition flashed through her mind: Yu Sui being punished to kneel again after returning to the palace, Madam Su arguing with Nangong Ming in the room with a cold expression, and the dim light of the night shining on Yu Sui's back kneeling at the door, making him look somewhat desolate.
She was shocked. How could this be?
Madam Su walked up to Yu Sui, exuding a distinctly oppressive aura, and asked the girl before her, "Did you plant this?"
Yu Sui's eyes showed a hint of timidity: "I grew it using spirit flower seeds, and I wanted to give it to my mother."
Madam Su's eyes were cold and deep, and she said in an unyielding tone, "Destroy it."
She said, "I don't like this flower."
The other ladies sensed something was wrong and tried to smooth things over, but Madam Su didn't give them any face and simply turned and left.
The ladies present looked at each other, unsure of what to do.
Zhong Lique was extremely annoyed. He looked at Yu Sui standing in the flower field. The large patch of green sunflowers was bright and lively. Yu Sui, who was also wearing a long gold dress, was hidden among them and became the only cool color.
Lady Zhongli sent Zhongli Que over to coax Yu Sui, and led the other ladies away to keep the children's peace from the adults' gossip.
"Sui Sui, I'm sorry." Zhong Li Que frowned, her eyes full of regret. "I shouldn't have made you do that. It's all my fault."
"It's okay." Yu Sui smiled at her, turned around and broke off the flowers. "Let's remove these flowers and replant them. We can plant other flowers. I don't like these flowers anyway."
Zhong Lique had been holding back her tears, but when she saw her smile at her, her eyes and nose suddenly stung with tears.
"I'm sorry." Zhong Lique's voice trembled with tears as soon as she opened her mouth, startling Yu Sui, who turned around to look at her. "Why are you crying?"
Zhong Lique hated Madam Su, she didn't understand why, but now she hated herself even more, why did she let Yu Sui do such a thing and suffer such humiliation.
Fourteen-year-old Zhong Lique finally realized that there were indeed people in this world who disliked Yu Sui.
Not everyone in the world will like Yu Sui, but that's okay, she likes Yu Sui.
