Chapter 208 Yes, the princess has a very decisive temper
Lan Lingrou glared at Lan Xiyue, "What do you mean? What did you do to my brother?"
"Lan Yuan, he's a mute now. Not only are his eyes blind, his hands crippled, but his legs are also broken. Isn't that miserable? Living is worse than death. Who made him break my brother's legs? He must live in pain. But don't worry, I will make you feel better."
Lan Lingrou's pupils suddenly constricted, reflecting Lan Xiyue's icy face. Her body trembled uncontrollably, her hands tightly hugging herself, her fingertips digging deep into her arms, yet she felt no pain at all.
A sharp roar emanated from her throat, her voice filled with fear: "You...you devil! You are not Lan Xiyue! You are a devil...Don't come over here! Go away, go away!"
Lan Xiyue's lips curled up into a cold smile, her eyes devoid of any warmth. Her voice was low and cold, as if it came from the depths of hell: "Alright, I'll send you to see your damned mother now."
Lan Lingrou's body suddenly stiffened, and then, as if all her strength had been drained away, she collapsed on the bed. Tears welled up in her eyes, slid down her cheeks, and soaked the bedding beneath her.
She knelt on the bed, making a dull "dong dong" sound. Her voice was trembling and hoarse, with endless pleading: "No, don't kill me... Please, sister, we are sisters..."
Lan Xiyue raised her eyebrows, a hint of sarcasm flashing in her eyes. She reached out and pinched Lan Lingrou's chin, forcing her to look up.
Her voice was as cold as ice as she spoke word by word: "Sisters? Do you know we are sisters now? Why didn't you think of us as sisters when you hired an assassin to kill me?"
Lan Lingrou's tears blurred her vision. Her lips trembled and her voice was intermittent: "Lan Xiyue, you forced me to do this... If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have lost my virginity to Yunhua, nor would I have contracted a heart disease... I hate you, it's all your fault, it's all your fault..."
Lan Xiyue released her chin and sneered, "Lan Lingrou, blame yourselves for your own misfortunes. If you and your mother hadn't wanted to destroy me, how could you have lost your virginity to Yunhua? That's why they say you reap what you sow!"
Lan Lingrou's body suddenly stiffened, and the fear in her eyes gradually gave way to a malicious glint. She stared at Lan Xiyue, her voice hoarse and sharp, "You know everything... You know everything... Why? Why are you different from before? No, you are not Lan Xiyue!"
Lan Xiyue nodded, a meaningful smile on her lips: "Well, I'm not the Lan Xiyue of the past."
Lan Lingrou's scream almost pierced her eardrums: "Who are you? Who are you?"
Lan Xiyue didn't answer her. Instead, she reached out, grabbed her hair, and dragged her off the bed.
Lan Lingrou's scalp was pulled so hard that it hurt. She struggled desperately, waving her hands wildly, trying to break free from Lan Xiyue's control.
Her voice was sharp and shrill: "No! Don't kill me! The silver was given by Bai Lianyan, it has nothing to do with me..."
Lan Xiyue sneered, her voice tinged with sarcasm: "Bai Lianhua, don't worry, she can't escape."
Before she finished her words, Lan Xiyue had already dragged Lan Lingrou to the ground, pulled up the curtain on the bed, and twisted it into a thick rope.
She threw the rope onto the beam and tied it into a knot.
Lan Lingrou had just struggled to get up and wanted to escape out the door when Lan Xiyue picked up a stool nearby and smashed it hard on her calf.
"Ah--" Lan Lingrou let out a shrill scream and fell to the ground, her body curled up into a ball, her hands tightly hugging her injured calf, tears and cold sweat mixed together and slid down her cheeks.
Lan Xiyue walked up to her and looked down at her condescendingly, without a trace of pity in her eyes.
Her voice was cold and mocking. "Tsk, why are you so dishonest? You still want to run away? You're really asking for trouble in front of me. Why don't you just wait to die?"
Lan Lingrou raised her head, her eyes filled with resentment and hatred. Her voice was hoarse and sharp, as if squeezed from the depths of her throat: "Lan Xiyue, you bitch! You will die a horrible death!"
Lan Xiyue sneered, reached out and picked up Lan Lingrou, dragging her to the stool.
She stepped onto the stool, stuffed Lan Lingrou's head into the noose, then jumped off the stool and watched Lan Lingrou struggling in the air coldly.
Lan Lingrou waved her hands wildly, kicked her feet weakly in the air, and made a weak sound in her throat, as if praying for the last chance of life.
Her face turned from red to purple, the light in her eyes gradually dimmed, and finally lost its luster completely.
Lan Xiyue stood aside, watching all this quietly, without any fluctuation in her eyes.
After Lan Lingrou was completely dead and Lan Xiyue erased all traces of the room, she swaggered out of the room.
Lan Xiyue walked out of Lingbaoyuan and did not choose to return to her own courtyard. Instead, she went straight to the backyard of the mansion and climbed over the wall.
An Yi and An Er hid in the dark, their eyes closely following Lan Xiyue's back.
An Yi muttered softly, "Princess, why aren't you resting so late at night? Where are you going?"
He and An Er saw everything that happened just now. In their opinion, the ending of Lan Lingrou and Lan Yuan was nothing but their own fault.
Lan Xiyue suddenly stopped, tilted her head slightly, and swept her eyes into the darkness like a knife, "Come out."
An Yi and An Er exchanged a glance, then immediately emerged from the shadows, knelt on one knee, and said respectfully, "Princess!"
Lan Xiyue's gaze lingered on them for a moment, and she said calmly, "You go back, and you are not allowed to follow me."
An Yi frowned, a hint of worry in his tone: "Princess, what are you going to do? I will never disturb you, I am just protecting your safety in secret."
Lan Xiyue's expression remained calm. "I just couldn't sleep. I'll just take a short walk and go back. Nothing will happen. You've come such a long way, so I'll give you tonight off."
An Yi wanted to say something else, but was forced to shut up by Lan Xiyue's sharp eyes.
His body stiffened, and he immediately lowered his head and replied, "Yes, I obey your command. Princess, please be careful." After that, he stood up and looked at An Er, and the two of them quickly slipped away.
Lan Xiyue stood there, watching their figures disappear into the night, and only continued walking forward after confirming that they had really left.
An Er glanced back at the direction where Lan Xiyue disappeared, frowning and asking in a low voice: "Are we really not following the princess? What if..."
An Yi shook his head, his tone filled with helplessness: "You saw the look in the princess's eyes just now. If we continue to follow, I guarantee that the princess will either knock us out or send us straight back to the Regent's Palace."
An Er nodded and sighed, "Yes, the princess is a person with strong opinions. After following her for these days, I know that she is very decisive."
Although the two men felt uneasy, they had no choice but to obey the order and turn away.
