Shen Chaomu covered her heart, which was in excruciating pain. She could hardly breathe, and tears fell one by one: "It was me, her elder sister, who failed to protect her. I am not worthy of being her elder sister."
"She trusted me so much, so much." But she brought her into the abyss of the devil, and even her death was tortured and so painful.
"And Chengzi and the others, every one of them died because of me. I didn't kill Boren, but he died because of me. So many lives were lost.
Xiuyuan, you know, ever since they died, I have been questioning myself, why it was not you who died. I was the one who should have died.
Zhang Xiuyuan felt bad seeing her heartbroken and painful look. He couldn't empathize with her, but he knew how much Shen Chaomu loved his sister Xiao Pu Tao and how deep his relationship with Chengzi and the others was.
Letting them die would cause her more pain than letting Shen Chaomu die.
"No. You can't put all the blame on yourself. It's others who are wrong." Zhang Xiuyuan comforted.
Shen Chaomu smiled bitterly and shook her head. How could this not be her fault?
However, she knew she was wrong, and she would not let the murderers go.
Thinking of those people, Shen Chaomu's red eyes quickly became sinister, spreading like ink, and were also stained with an abnormal excitement.
"Xiuyuan, do you know what happened to those people after I captured them? They loved to tear at my and Little Grape's flesh, so I threw them into a snake den and let the snakes devour them. You have no idea how miserable they screamed. It was such a joy to me to hear them."
Snake cave, ten thousand snakes! ?
Zhang Xiuyuan's face turned pale and he shuddered instantly, but he didn't say anything.
Seeing Zhang Xiuyuan's reaction, Shen Chaomu came over anyway. She scared him and quickly suppressed the madness on her face. She took two steps closer and said helplessly: "Xiuyuan, don't be afraid of me. They were the ones who hurt people first, so I will punish them. I will never hurt you. I swear."
Shen Chaomu said, raising his finger with a determined look.
Zhang Xiuyuan didn't doubt that Shen Chaomu would hurt him. He remained silent and just hugged the little bun in his arms tightly.
The little boy was only a few months old, blinking his eyes. He knew nothing about the surroundings. He only knew that his daddy was by his side.
"Xiuyuan, I really like you. Please be with me. I don't mind that you already have a child." Shen Chaomu looked at Zhang Xiuyuan's handsome face and confessed again.
Zhang Xiuyuan still shook his head: "I'm sorry, I like Zhao Chuchu."
"Zhao Chuchu?" Shen Chaomu snorted softly, "I don't know if she is still alive now."
Zhang Xiuyuan's expression suddenly changed, and his tone became colder: "What did you do?"
Hearing Zhang Xiuyuan's question, Shen Chaomu's eyes flashed with hurt. She said, "I won't do anything to her, but I don't know whether others will do something to her. If anyone is to blame, it's only Prince Ancheng and her husband."
Hearing that Shen Chaomu did not attack Zhao Chuchu, Zhang Xiuyuan breathed a sigh of relief. Before he had time to think about the meaning of Shen Chaomu's last sentence, the little bun in his arms started crying.
Shen Chaomu looked at the child in his arms, the light in his eyes dim and unclear.
"Chao Mu, can't you really let us go?"
