Chapter 38 From now on, I, Wen Ruyun, only have one sister
The three Wen brothers were stunned.
Wen Ruyun realized it later and pushed Wen Xingluo fiercely: "Are you crazy?! How dare you hit your sister?! It's just a lamp, just turn it off and light it again, why are you so crazy?!"
Wen Xingluo was pushed to the ground.
She lowered her head, her face hidden in the darkness was cold and gloomy, and her hands were clenched into fists.
She just wanted to offer a lamp to her past life.
Light the way forward and pray for the return journey of that little girl who has never received love and care from birth to death.
But she didn't expect that Wen Yueyin was so mean as to dare to blow out her lamp!
Wen Rulei was furious and stood in front of Wen Yueyin, cursing, "You asked us to come here to apologize to you, but I don't think it was necessary! A heartless and ungrateful person like you would be worse off treating you like a dog!"
"Big brother, third brother, please stop talking..." Wen Yueyin choked up and said, "It's all my fault. I hurt Xingluo on my own initiative. It's understandable that she hit me. Please don't blame her."
The three Wen brothers felt so distressed when they saw her pale face and her thin and delicate body trembling like a leaf in the wind.
Wen Ruyun hugged her with pity: "You are too kind, that's why you are bullied by Wen Xingluo!"
He glanced coldly at Wen Xingluo again: "People like you deserve to be disliked by everyone! I'm putting this out there. From now on, I, Wen Ruyun, only have Yue Yin as my sister. Whether you live or die, whether you're blessed or cursed, it has nothing to do with me!"
After saying that, he strode away with a sullen face.
Wen Rufeng sighed and looked down at Wen Xingluo. "Xingluo, you've let me down so much! I'll take charge. When you go back, write a ten-thousand-word apology letter and sincerely admit your mistakes to your sister. And give it to me along with your monthly allowance for the past few months. I'm doing this for your own good. You're a grown-up now, and you should know right from wrong!"
After they left the Buddhist temple, Wen Ruyun quietly locked the temple door from the outside.
His expression was serious. "Yue Yin is a precious treasure we hold in our hands. We wouldn't even dare to touch her, but that damned girl Wen Xingluo actually dared to hit her! Let's lock her up in the Buddhist temple tonight and tell her to reflect on herself and think about where she went wrong!"
"That's fine." Wen Rufeng nodded heavily. "I hope she can mend her ways and become her former self again. Otherwise, even I, as her eldest brother, won't want to forgive her anymore."
In the Buddhist temple.
Wen Xingluo's eyes were red, but no tears fell.
She was impulsive tonight.
When she hit people, she was probably completely different from the noble lady her grandmother had hoped she would be.
But she doesn't regret it.
She picked up the eternal lamp, relit it, and placed it in the Buddhist temple.
After doing all this, she calmed down, tidied her appearance quietly and carefully, and put away her madness, as if she had turned back into the calm, gentle and versatile Miss Wen in the Zhenbei Palace.
Suddenly a chuckle came from the corner.
Wen Xingluo looked in the direction of the sound.
There was a desk in the corner. A young man in white clothes, as graceful as a pine tree, was sitting behind the desk. He wore a half-mask of an evil ghost with a green face and fangs. The nine-layered lotus lantern hanging above his head cast a shadow, dimly illuminating the cinnabar mole between his eyebrows.
He is the second son of the Zhenbei Palace, Xie Yanchen.
Wen Xingluo was very afraid of him, but when he caught her doing her private affairs tonight, the rebellious blood in the girl's bones boiled, diluting her fear.
She said, "I didn't know that my second brother had a habit of peeping at others."
"I've been sitting here asking questions and interpreting divinations, but you didn't notice. How did that make me think I was spying on you?" Xie Yanchen's voice was clear and pleasant. "Since you have nothing to do, Sister Xingluo, would you like to have your fortune told?"
Wen Xingluo looked at him.
This second young master of the palace is really weird.
Not only did he live in the charity cemetery where corpses were piled up, he also ran to the Buddhist temple in the middle of the night to ask for divination and interpret fortunes for people.
She asked, "Is your divination very accurate?"
Xie Yanchen raised his hand and said, "Sister Xingluo, you'll know once you try it."
Wen Xingluo sat down opposite him, shook the stick box carefully, and a stick fell out in a moment.
Xie Yanchen picked up the stick and read, "'The moon was bright and beautiful in the east, but suddenly clouds covered half of it. Don't think that when it is full it will become waning again. You must make the waning part become full again.'"
He played with the wooden stick and whispered softly, "Dark clouds cover the moon, making the future difficult to predict. It seems that Sister Xingluo's current situation is confusing and difficult."
Wen Xingluo had no expression on his face.
The Wen family expelled her and Xie Guanlan wanted to kill her.
Isn't her situation very difficult?
She took a deep breath and stood up: "I'll take my leave first."
Xie Yanchen squinted his eyes and watched her walk to the door of the Buddhist temple.
Wen Xingluo reached out to push the door of the Buddhist temple, but couldn't move it.
When Wen Rufeng and the others left, they deliberately locked the palace door!
Wen Xingluo gritted his teeth and wanted to climb out the window to leave, but as soon as he turned around, he bumped into Xie Yanchen's chest.
The young man was wearing a half-full mask of an evil ghost with a green face and fangs, looking dangerous and creepy in the dim Buddhist temple.
Wen Xingluo was startled, her slender back pressed tightly against the door: "You...how come you walk so quietly?!"
"The fortune hasn't been fully interpreted yet, why are you so anxious, Sister Xingluo?"
Xie Yanchen's gaze was like a sharp blade, slicing through the pale blue veins on the girl's neck inch by inch. "Although Sister Xingluo's fortune shows that the road ahead is bleak with floating clouds covering the moon, it also says that in the future, you will meet a noble person who will clear the clouds and reveal the moon."
Wen Xingluo was silent for a while, then asked, "Second brother, are you trying to say that you are my benefactor?"
Xie Yanchen placed the stick against Wen Xingluo's jawline, staring at her face obsessively. "As long as you can afford it, I'm willing to help you punish the four Wen siblings."
"What's the price that Second Brother is looking for?"
The inscription made of green bamboo wood was as thin as a slice and scraped across the girl's cheek, like a jade craftsman carefully stroking the most precious jade in the world.
Xie Yanchen leaned forward, lowered his head, and moved closer to Wen Xingluo: "Of course it's your face."
What a beautiful face.
Wouldn't it be a wonderful thing to peel it off and collect it, and look at it and enjoy it in your spare time every day?
Wen Xingluo's hair stood on end.
No wonder my sister in my previous life would look horrified every time she came home and mentioned Xie Yanchen.
She vaguely remembered that one time her sister ran home crying, begging her father and brother to invite the Shu County's miracle doctor to help her, saying that Xie Yanchen had sewn a piece of black dog skin on her body and she couldn't get it off.
Several candles in the Buddhist temple were blown out by the wind.
The darkness seemed to have substance, spreading from every corner. The coolness seeped out from the gaps in the floor tiles and climbed up along Wen Xingluo's ankles, as if it was a noose that was going to trap her here.
Wen Xingluo swallowed in fear.
