"who I am?"
Su Miao had a faint smile on her lips, but her eyes shone with a cold light as she walked step by step toward Lady Liu.
The moonlight was pale and cold. She wore a light-colored dress, the hem of which fluttered in the wind. She exuded a chilling aura that sent shivers down one's spine.
Lady Liu couldn't help but take a step back, her body trembling, looking at Su Miao with a terrified expression.
Are you scared?
Su Miao grabbed Liu Wangshi's chin, forcing her to look directly at her.
"Look closely? Who am I?"
Her voice was icy cold, as if it could penetrate one's skin and reach the depths of one's heart.
Liu Wangshi felt a chill run down her spine, and her face turned ashen.
"You're still alive! Weren't all those people from back then dealt with? How could this be..."
She checked several times to make sure everyone who knew about the scandal was dead before she could finally relax.
Later, she wasn't too worried, since they were just ordinary people.
Those without power are easily crushed!
Moreover, Zhangshui City is so remote that as long as you keep your hands clean, you don't have to worry about being discovered!
I never imagined that anyone would still be alive...
Not only are they alive, but they're even lurking right under their noses!
Her danger is not outwardly apparent, but rather hidden beneath her seemingly fragile exterior.
Lady Liu dared not meet Su Miao's gaze.
"What do you want... Don't forget, my daughter is the future Duchess, and your brother's wife! If you do anything to me, do you think they'll let you off the hook?"
"Don't think that just because your status has changed, you can do whatever you want!" Lady Liu threatened, her eyes red.
Su Miao chuckled softly upon hearing this.
There was no fear or apprehension on his face; instead, he looked at Lady Liu as if she were a joke.
"I've brought you all this way, do you think I'm scared? Instead of worrying about me, you should worry about your Liu Jiaojiao!"
"What are you going to do! I'm going to tell Jiaojiao, I'm going to tell her that the people from back then didn't die, and I'm going to make her kill you!"
"Now that you've come here, will you be able to return safely?"
Su Miao spoke softly, and her hand naturally landed on Liu Wangshi's neck, grabbing her tightly.
"You dare kill me? Aren't you afraid Shen Changji will find out?!"
"Killing you outright would be too easy for you."
As Su Miao spoke, she slammed Liu Wangshi's head hard against the ground.
With a loud "bang," Lady Liu screamed instantly.
"you……"
"Does it hurt? It's supposed to hurt! This is a head injury. It's nothing compared to you stabbing innocent civilians one knife after another, watching them bleed to death. That's a fraction of the pain you feel!"
As she spoke, Su Miao slammed Liu Wangshi to the ground again.
"Ah! You're crazy..."
"Yes, I am a madman! You guys have driven me mad!"
A crimson hue appeared at the corner of Su Miao's eye, and a surge of intense hatred welled up in her heart, causing tears to stream down her face.
Soon, the blood seeping from Liu Wangshi's forehead stained the ground in front of her.
She collapsed to the ground, the surging pain intense, as if it were tearing every inch of her skin to shreds, making it hard for her to breathe.
"I won't kill you so quickly. I'll make you die a slow and painful death..."
After Su Miao finished speaking, she grabbed Liu Wangshi by the neck, took out the prepared pills and stuffed them directly into her mouth, leaving her no choice but to accept.
"Cough... What is this?!"
"Don't even think about going back to inform Liu Jiaojiao about what made you wish you were dead, because you won't have that chance."
Lady Liu's eyes widened.
Su Miao looked at her and smiled gently.
That smile was quite chilling.
In the quiet, deep forest, the smell of decaying earth mingled with the occasional call of an owl.
Liu Wangshi looked at Su Miao with a face full of fear.
Her smile grew increasingly smug, appearing even more sinister in the moonlight.
"You, Liu Taipu, and Liu Jiaojiao. None of you will escape!"
Especially Liu Jiaojiao, her crimes are heinous!
Are you scared? You know perfectly well that I'm a bad person, but you can't tell your sweetheart. Doesn't that feel terrible?
Do you really think she can become the Duchess? With me around, absolutely not.
Su Miao's eyes were as black as an abyss, and the faint smile on her lips was full of sarcasm and contempt.
Upon hearing this, Lady Liu became even more agitated, but she found that no matter what she did, she couldn't utter a word.
My throat feels like it's being cut with a knife...
She clutched her neck in pain, staring at Su Miao with eyes full of resentment.
"As expected, you still care a lot about the status of this Duchess."
Su Miao chuckled softly, took the handkerchief, and slowly wiped her blood-stained hands.
"Guards, take Madam Liu back!"
"Madam Liu, don't die so soon. Take a good look at how I torture your Jiaojiao! Just like she... tortured my brother."
Liu Wangshi's face turned deathly pale, and her gaze at Su Miao was like two sharp daggers, silently piercing into her heart.
After saying that, Su Miao threw down the handkerchief and turned to leave.
Even after being sent back, Lady Liu couldn't sleep.
The moment I close my eyes, all I see is bloody horror...
Besides that shameful incident from back then, she seemed to see all the concubines and mistresses she had killed appearing before her eyes one by one.
...
At this moment, Liu Jiaojiao was enjoying the moonlight with Shen Changji.
He remained silent for a long time: "The moonlight is nice."
"Yes, it's been so long since I've seen such a round moon. Chen Lang, do you think this is a sign that things will be alright for us in the future?"
