Chapter 74 Chapter 60 Stealing Life Part Two
It was a warm afternoon, but Ni Lan felt very cold.
He subconsciously smiled, trying to hide his abnormality, but it was too clumsy.
Puisi didn't expect that the question he asked would cause such a big reaction from Ni Lan, and he was a little at a loss for a moment.
"Ni..."
"Alan!!!"
It was unknown when Bo Mo had come out of the sea. He quietly went behind the two of them and gave Ni Lan a hug from behind.
By the way, he showed off the beautiful shells he had caught from the sea.
Ni Lan's emotions were interrupted all of a sudden. He widened his eyes in surprise and stopped thinking.
This shell is pale blue, and it takes on different colors when the sunlight shines on it from different angles, making it extremely gorgeous.
"These are the shells I caught! They're beautiful, aren't they? Hehe."
The boy's voice came from the side of his ear, and Ni Lan's gaze was forced to be drawn to the shining shell. Only then did he realize that Pomo was very close to him.
After what I did, why would Amo and Izki forgive me and treat me as a friend now?
But Pomo didn't give him the chance to think about it and stuffed the shell into Ni Lan's hand.
"It's for you!"
Ni Lan held the shell in her hand and felt it was boiling hot.
Then he closed his hands and held the shell treasure.
He almost cried, and even his tone had a hint of relief after the breakdown.
"Thank you...I will treasure it."
"Hey, as long as you like it!"
Pomer finally let him go, and then like a magic trick, he lifted up a piece of coral petal that had fallen off naturally.
"This is for Ess! Although Ess has definitely seen everything!"
Puis's expression also became surprised.
"Did you pick this up?"
"Yes, it happened to float in front of me when I was diving, so I picked it up. It's beautiful, isn't it?"
The coral petals have a flower-like texture, with five blue petals in total, and are almost indistinguishable from a carefully crafted piece of art.
Pomeranian's luck at times was so good that Puest marveled at it.
"This kind of coral is called Lucky Star, and the petals growing on its top, which are the coral petals in your hand, are called Lucky Flowers. They only grow into one every ten to twenty years. If they are picked by humans, they will break immediately. If they fall off naturally and touch the seabed, they will drill down, so they are extremely rare in the wild."
It's just 'lucky luck'.
Pomo scratched his head, "Huh? I thought you could see it everywhere. Never mind, it's for Ess anyway!"
He sat down next to Ni Lan with satisfaction, drank the drinks they ordered for him, and then sighed, "The sea is so beautiful!"
Ni Lan finally returned to normal, and Pu Yisi was relieved to see him smile.
Don't be impatient, you still have to take it step by step.
——
"Wow, it's the lucky flower. His name is Pomo, right? He's so lucky."
Yunrou has good eyesight, so of course the shape of the lucky flower is easy to recognize.
"Humph, shit luck."
Pu Ao Shi could naturally see that his brother was very happy.
Pu Ao Shi had been speaking so aggressively in recent days, but Yun Rou had already gotten used to it. He pouted and decided to just enjoy his snacks, feeling more comfortable.
At this moment, Pu Ao Shi's end sounded.
The boy took out the terminal irritably, and then his expression became even worse, but it was obviously a call he could not refuse, so he could only get up and walk out.
There are only two people who can make Pu Aoshi show this kind of expression. One of them died suddenly not long ago, and the other one...
Yun Rou cried out "Oh no" in her heart. It seemed that today's journey with her good brother was about to end.
"Mother."
"Where are you now?"
"Outside, what's going on?"
"You're out fooling around again. Did you know that your jerk brother is back?"
Pu Aoshi's hand holding the terminal tightened instantly, and it was even shaking slightly because of the force.
But the person in front of her is her biological mother after all, so no matter how dissatisfied she is, she will not express it easily.
"Mother, I told you, my brother is not a bastard. You should at least give him some respect."
As for what his mother said about him being chased and killed if he failed to compete for the position of head of the family, he didn't believe it at all. His brother was not that kind of person.
The brother who wanted to fight for it has passed away. Pu Ao Shi’s mood is not complicated, and it is even surprisingly simple.
The guy who deliberately got himself lost and caused him to be kidnapped by his enemies is the real bastard. It seems that he has done his best by not scolding him.
Only my mother thought that blood ties were of the utmost importance and thought she had already forgiven my brother.
Oh.
"Come back soon."
Diane selectively ignored what Pu Aoshi said. She lived in her own world and did not allow anyone to disobey her.
Pu Aoshi clenched his fists, his face gloomy.
After taking a while to calm himself down, he went to find Yun Rou.
"I'm going home."
"Is everything alright?"
Yun Rou seized the opportunity and drank two sips of juice before following.
Pu Aoshi waved his hand irritably, "I'm going home."
Oh no, he actually guessed it right.
As far as Yun Rou was concerned, Lady Diane had no other good points except her beauty. But who made her Pu Ao Shi's mother? Even if Yun Rou really looked down on her, she couldn't say it out loud.
"See you tomorrow then. Just don't call me early in the morning."
No one can have an easy life if Pu Aoshi is unhappy. He walked into the mansion with a sour face and came to his mother Diane's room.
Dai Anni had been waiting for him for a long time, and smiled as soon as she saw him. "My Ao Shi is back, come and sit down."
Pu Ao Shi was standing at the door.
"Mother, just tell me what you want to say."
"This child is getting less and less friendly as he grows older. Come here quickly so that mom can take a good look at him."
Pu Aoshi noticed that Dai Anni's clothes were all suitable for going out, so he stood there without understanding.
"Isn't mom going to take me somewhere?"
"Of course I went to the banquet, this..."
"No."
"You have to go. This banquet is different from other banquets. I will have to find someone to carry you in."
Diane was still smiling, not feeling that there was anything wrong with her making decisions about her child's every move.
Pu Aoshi's face was full of resistance, and Diane didn't want to force her only son into a corner.
"It's really an important matter. You should come with your mother."
Pu Aoshi rolled his eyes, but didn't leave.
Fortunately, his mother did not ask him to change into "decent" clothes as she did before. As soon as Pu Ao Shi got in the car, he started looking out the window and did not talk to his mother.
But he could notice that his mother was looking at him, with implicit expectation and a hint of... hatred?
He knew that it was not aimed at him, but who else could he be in the entire Shennan?
Naturally, it can only be directed at Puys.
The car was moving forward steadily, but Pu Ao felt more and more that something was wrong. The road was getting further and further off the track, and he couldn't even see the lights on either side of the road.
"Mom, where are we going?"
"There are some things that you were too young to tell you."
This is not a party, Pu Ao Shi frowned.
"Where are we going?"
But Dai Anni continued to talk to herself.
"But your brother is gone. He was murdered! You are all Mom has left."
Pu Ao Shi was stunned.
"Didn't he die suddenly and unexpectedly?"
Dai Anni knocked hard on the car window. "Your brother should have inherited the Pu family's supernatural powers and the Pu family! Became the new ruler of Shennan! It's all because of that bastard's child!"
Pu Ao Shi finally couldn't bear to listen any longer, although he still didn't know what his mother and brother were conspiring.
"Mother keeps calling me a bitch. What did the former mistress do to make you so angry? And my brother left Shennan a long time ago. What else are you dissatisfied with?"
From his perspective, his mother's hatred and jealousy were too inexplicable and he really couldn't understand it.
Diane said nothing. The atmosphere remained tense and the car continued to drive on.
Finally they arrived at a villa, and Pu Aoshi realized that it was where his mother lived when he was a child.
"Get out of the car, we'll talk inside."
If possible, Pu Aoshi actually hopes that his mother can live in peace with Pu Yis. He has no intention of inheriting the Pu family, and the only heir in the family is Pu Yis.
But my mother is too stubborn. If she continues like this, she will definitely do something irreparable.
So Pu Ao Shi decided to go and see what his mother was trying to do.
Walking into this house, of which he actually had few memories, he heard that Putonsang gave it to Diane to live in after he met her.
"Your mother and I have suffered so much humiliation here. You were still young and didn't understand anything, but I will remember the way those people looked at me for the rest of my life."
To this day, Diane is still filled with hatred when she talks about what happened back then.
Pu Aozhi remained silent.
"Do you know the identity of the previous mistress, that bitch?"
"...The eldest daughter of the Liuhua family and the elder sister of the current head of the Liuhua family."
"Yes, you remember it very clearly." Dai Anni's voice became increasingly calm, and then it was filled with deep hatred. "But who knows that your mother, I, am also a child of the Liuhua family, and that bitch is my sister! But I am an illegitimate child, so I am not even worthy of the Liuhua family's surname."
Diane, Diane, what a nice name it sounds like, but in the northern border, it means "daughter of a jerk"!!!
"If it weren't for your mother's hard work, do you think you, a illegitimate child, would have the life you have today?"
Illegitimate child, these three words were like a thundercloud, hanging over Diane's head all her life.
She didn't want her children to bear the same curse, so she tried her best to climb up and push her children to the position of head of the family.
Liuhua family? She is the mistress of the Pu family! She will be the mother of the head of the family in the future! She is definitely not worse than that bastard who died!
"You also have the blood of the Liuhua family and the Pu family in your body. You will definitely be no worse than that guy!"
Diane has fought for her identity all her life, and she will never allow herself to fail after outlasting her sister!
