Listening dully to the rumbling thunder outside the window, Fu Rongxin felt that her heart was numb and she could hardly feel any fear.
This afternoon, she wanted to go out to do something important, but was suddenly covered with her mouth and dragged into an alley.
There she saw the face that had been embedded in her nightmares.
After not seeing him for three months, Gao Qingnian had become emaciated and even had several fingers broken. He looked like a demon crawling out of hell.
Gao Qingnian told her that after that night at the Bodhi Temple, he escaped death and escaped from the blizzard. He was rescued by a hunter in the mountains and survived, but several of his fingers were frozen off.
He also told her that he would definitely come to propose marriage, otherwise he would make public the fact that she had killed Princess Anle, and at worst they would die together.
He also said that he would marry her and torture her to death...
Fu Rongxin chuckled, and then burst into laughter that broke her heart, she laughed so hard that she fell back and forth, and laughed until tears came out.
Why? Why did she come back? Why did she have to go through such humiliation again?
She originally wanted to pretend to agree to Gao Qingnian's marriage proposal, but she didn't expect... she didn't expect that she was seen by that bitch, so she had to kill her to silence her!
Seeing Fu Rongxin's frantic look, Cai Zhi was terrified. She knelt down and said cautiously, "Miss, this matter...should we tell Madam first?"
"Tell me what!" Fu Rongxin kicked Cai Zhi viciously. "If you dare to tell anyone a word, I don't mind taking another life of yours!"
Caizhi could only curl up and sob.
Fu Rongxin panted heavily and sneered, "It's just killing a lowly concubine's daughter. What's there to be afraid of? Put away your behavior!"
But at this moment, the door creaked open.
Outside the door was Fu Ling, who looked terrified.
Before Fu Rong finished speaking, her heart trembled, her legs went weak, and she fell to the ground.
After sending Cai Zhi away, Fu Ling sat down in panic. She quickly fiddled with the bodhi beads, her face as pale as death. "You...explain clearly, Rongxin, explain what's going on!"
At this moment, Fu Rongxin had lost her previous ferocity and just lay down on the ground crying.
"Mother... I went to deal with the unborn child in Rong Ziying's belly as we planned, but someone saw us! I was scared and begged her not to tell anyone, but she and Xue Zhiyi were so close, how could she let go of this handle? I just pushed her in a moment of desperation, but who knew she was so fragile that she died just like that..."
After saying that, she crawled to Fu Ling's feet on her knees: "Mother... Rong Xin didn't mean it, Rong Xin is scared! Mother, what should I do? If I am arrested for murder, what will happen to my brother's Spring Examination? Mother, Rong Xin doesn't want to die, mother!"
Having said this, Fu Ling was already pounding his chest and bursting into tears.
At this moment, the violent storm outside the window seemed to be beating her heart repeatedly.
“What a sin… What a sin!”
Fu Ling knelt down weakly and held the trembling Fu Rongxin in his arms, wishing he could hold his daughter in his belly so that he could protect her once again.
She frantically fiddled with the Buddhist beads, muttering scriptures, as if this would gain the protection of the gods and Buddhas, but the beads suddenly broke.
The Bodhi seeds fell to the ground with a crackling sound, like the whispers and judgments of the gods in the sky.
"What should I do... What should I do with my daughter?" She just cried helplessly.
Fu Rongxin was calmer than she was. She pulled herself out of her arms and looked at Fu Ling firmly. "Mother... the child in Rong Ziying's belly shouldn't have existed in the world. What's wrong with us sending this child away? The one who's wrong is the one who can't tell right from wrong and wants to tell this to others! I'm going to kill him, so what's wrong with that?"
She forced a smile, but it looked extremely terrifying on her face covered in sweat and tears: "Mom, we are not wrong, we are not wrong! She deserves to be killed!"
Fu Ling looked dazed, as if he had been persuaded. He just repeated dully, "Yes... She deserves to die, she deserves to die..."
Holding Fu Ling's trembling hand, Fu Rongxin smiled brightly: "Mom, help me, okay? Help me, I don't want to die... I don't want to be beheaded, help me, Mom?"
Hugging Fu Rongxin tightly once again, this time, Fu Ling became extremely confident: "Rongxin, my Rongxin, as long as your mother is here, no one can hurt you in the slightest!"
The strong wind and heavy rain broke through the window, and the lightning and thunder made the faces of the mother and daughter look like female ghosts in the interweaving of light and dark, which was terrifying and creepy.
…
The heavy rain came unexpectedly.
Outside the car curtain, heavy rain was pouring down, and the bustling city of Huajing was a little blurry.
"I always feel very uneasy." Xue Zhiyi said.
Qiuyun sighed: "Miss, don't worry, Qiuyun will always be with you."
Xue Zhiyi smiled at her.
Just as he was about to lower the curtain, he suddenly saw a few officials gathered at an alley in the empty street, talking.
Xue Zhiyi frowned, and that strong sense of uneasiness surged into his heart again: "What happened there?"
Qiuyun also took a look and said, "I don't know. Do you want me to go over and take a look?"
After thinking about it, Xue Zhiyi shook his head: "No, let's go home early."
…
The rain was so heavy that after Xue Zhiyi got off the car, he returned to Jiangxuexuan with an umbrella, but he still got wet.
Qiuyun took off her wet jacket and called out, "Suyue, prepare some hot water!"
But Su Yue didn't respond, so Qiu Yun called out again, "Su Yue!"
This time, Su Yue finally showed up. The little girl looked dazed, her eyes swollen and unable to open, as if she had just cried.
"What's wrong?" Xue Zhiyi asked hurriedly.
