Chapter 702 Motherly Love, Riot Erupts! [1st Update]
Ying Zijing's gaze paused.
She remembered the date.
It is her birth date.
Ying Zijing recalled the question Yu Xuesheng had asked her—
"Have you ever considered that Lady Suwen might very well be your mother?"
She hadn't deliberately looked up the answer.
Because sometimes expectations actually lead to more disappointment.
Now it seems that Suwen's daughter is buried deep beneath this land.
There is no relationship between them.
Suwen's hand caressed the tombstone, her gaze distant, tinged with a hint of reminiscence.
After a moment, she came to her senses and smiled slightly: "When your older brother and I got married, we had already chosen this name."
"The reason for naming her Tanxin is that we hope she will live a peaceful and safe life, have a sincere heart, and never suffer any injustice."
Sinai was startled: "Sister-in-law, it's you..."
After she returned from the preparatory class at the research institute, she learned of Suwen's coma and the premature death of her baby.
She was too young at the time, and the Academy of Sages never considered transferring power of the Leinger family to her.
Sinai was unaware of all the details of the matter.
But now it seems that Suwen himself erected the tombstone.
It was Suwen who personally buried her daughter here.
“Yes, I did experience a miscarriage scare and severe blood and qi deficiency, but I didn’t fall into a coma immediately after giving birth to Tan Tan,” Su Wen said softly. “Until I discovered that Tan Tan was already…”
She paused, her voice becoming slightly hoarse: "So, with my last breath, I buried Tan Tan here, so that she may rest in peace."
Tell her that her mother will always be there for her, and that her mother didn't do it on purpose.
Sina's fingers tightened, her eyes gradually reddening, and she murmured, "Sister-in-law..."
So the anonymous message she received was actually just a prank.
Her niece did indeed die at birth.
"I'm sorry." Suwen slowly squatted down, bowed her head to the tombstone, and choked out, "Mom... Mom didn't protect you well, and you left this world when you were so young."
At this moment, dark clouds slowly gathered in the sky, and then a torrential downpour began.
Ying Zijing stood quietly, letting the raindrops fall on her.
She gazed silently at the sky.
She had never had a mother, nor had she ever experienced what maternal love was.
The year she spent living in the Ying family made her even resistant to the word "mother".
It turns out that there really are mothers like this in the world, who are willing to sacrifice everything for their children.
After a long while, Suwen got up, wiped away her tears, and said softly, "Tantan, Mommy has to take care of some things first. I'll come and stay with you every day from now on, okay?"
No one answered.
"Okay, Mom understands." Suwen's voice softened even more. "When your father comes back, we'll move you to a new house."
She turned around, about to call Sinai to leave together.
Upon seeing that the girl was dripping wet from head to toe, Suwen's expression changed slightly: "Why are you in the rain?"
Without saying a word, she opened her umbrella, stepped forward, and grabbed the girl's hand, her attitude unusually firm for the first time: "Quickly, come with me to take a hot shower, and then change your clothes."
Hearing these words of concern, Ying Zijing was slightly taken aback.
By the time she came to her senses, Suwen had already pulled her out of the cemetery.
"Little miracle doctor, this is an automatic shower machine." Suwen led Ying Zijin into the bathroom. "Don't catch a cold."
Ying Zijing didn't mention that she had ancient martial arts skills, so these wind and rain were nothing to her.
She nodded and smiled slightly: "Thank you, Madam."
"Don't call me Madam, just call me Auntie." Suwen smiled and said, "Go in and take a bath first, then we can eat."
Thirty minutes later.
Ying Zijin changed into a bathrobe and came out.
Suwen was sitting on the sofa outside.
She is such a gentle woman that no one can resist her care.
"I'm all done washing." Suwen stood up. "Your clothes were all soaked. I had the maid wash them. Come and change into some new clothes."
Next to the bedroom is a dedicated wardrobe.
It is over a hundred square meters.
Inside are all kinds of everyday clothes, formal wear, and shoes.
The place was filled with dazzling array of luxurious items.
“When I was young, I liked to buy clothes,” Suwen said softly. “After I married into the main family, Ayuan specially prepared this place for me to store my clothes.”
Ying Zijing looked at the woman's face, which showed no signs of aging but was instead even more elegant and beautiful: "You are still very young."
The ice bed slowed down the rate of cell division in the basal cells.
Suwen's physical condition is no different from what it was twenty years ago.
No one would believe she is fifty years old.
"I'm not old in body, but in heart." Suwen's eyelashes fluttered, and she smiled softly. "I've been asleep for so long, but I'm not completely unaware of the outside world."
“A while ago, I dreamed again about how Tan Tan died. It was a nightmare.”
Suwen felt very guilty.
Tan Xin died young, and the responsibility lies entirely with her.
If it weren't for the severe miscarriage at the time, her daughter Tan Tan wouldn't have suffocated to death.
“These are all styles from twenty years ago, so they might not be in line with the trends of you young people now.” Suwen came back to her senses and took out a dress. “How about this one? I bought it but haven’t worn it yet. Try it on and see if you can fit into it.”
Her eyes were bright, and her gaze was full of expectation.
Ying Zijin couldn't bear to refuse and went into the changing room.
Suwen's custom-made dresses are never luxurious and have no unnecessary embellishments.
But it exudes an air of elegance and nobility.
After changing, Ying Zijin tied her hair up.
With her black hair, pale lips, and porcelain-white skin, she looked just like a beauty who had stepped out of an ancient ink painting.
"So beautiful." Suwen's eyes shone even brighter as she exclaimed, "The little divine doctor has such a great figure."
Her clothes are all custom-made to her own size.
Unexpectedly, Ying Zijin was able to handle it perfectly.
"Let's go." Suwen took the girl's hand again and winked at her. "Let's go eat. I haven't cooked in a long time. I hope it's not too bad."
**
Suwen entered the kitchen.
At the dining table, Sinai was already seated, her head bowed: "Ah Ying, I'm sorry, you don't need to help me find anyone anymore."
"It's nothing." Ying Zijing shook her head slightly. "You just don't know."
Sinai frowned: "But who on earth would send me a message like that? What's their motive?"
Ying Zijing raised her eyes: "Then how did you determine that the source of the information was reliable?"
Sinai is a super genius at the research institute; it's impossible that he would search for Tanxin for ten years just because of an anonymous message.
“Because it has my elder brother’s personal seal on it,” Sinai said. “It cannot be forged, and no one but the man himself can use it.”
"At first I thought it was a message from my older brother, but it wasn't signed."
Ying Zijin seemed to be deep in thought.
Soon, Suwen came out carrying the dishes.
Four dishes and a soup, all home-style dishes, yet they are delicious and visually appealing.
"Eat up," Suwen said with a smile as she sat down. "I just tasted it; it won't kill you."
“Ah Ying,” Xinai said, “My sister-in-law’s cooking is excellent. My older brother’s stomach was spoiled back then, and he couldn’t eat anything except what she made.”
Ying Zijing picked up her chopsticks, took a piece of Mapo Tofu, and put it in her mouth: "It's delicious."
Su Wen stared blankly at the girl, lost in thought, and never looked away.
Ying Zijing looked up as if she sensed something, her hand pausing: "Auntie?"
"It's nothing, little miracle doctor." Suwen came back to her senses and smiled. "I was thinking, if Tantan were still alive, she would be about your age. I wonder what she would be like."
Sinai felt a pang of sadness. She moved her lips slightly and said, "Sister-in-law..."
"It's all in the past." Suwen patted her hand, then turned to her and asked with concern, "Little Divine Doctor, did you come from outside the city? Do you have a place to stay now?"
“I’m at the research institute,” Ying Zijin said. “There are dormitories provided.”
"A research institute?" Su Wen was slightly surprised. "What do you study?"
Mechanical and aerospace engineering.
"It's really impressive that a girl can learn such a sport."
The three of them enjoyed a harmonious meal together.
After dinner, Sinai recounted to Suwen how she received the anonymous message.
Suwen frowned: "You haven't received any more in all these years?"
Sinai shook her head: "No, I asked the hacker alliance to check the source of that anonymous message, and it was listed as unknown. There are no clues at all."
“Your elder brother is missing. Could it be that someone is using him?” Su Wen said calmly. “I buried Tan Tan myself. How could she have gone to O Continent?”
She also wanted Tanxin to live.
But that's clearly impossible.
“Xiao Xinai, it was only when you decided to search for Tan Tan that you were given an unknown alchemical drug,” Su Wen spoke again. “If you hadn’t gone to search for Tan Tan, you would have stayed in the research institute or the main family.”
"No one in these two places would dare to lay a hand on you."
Ying Zijin narrowed her eyes slightly.
good.
The Institute of Biological Genetics naturally obeys the sage magician.
But it's impossible for someone to be so bold as to administer drugs to an SS-level researcher in a research institute.
"It seems someone wants to eliminate everyone in the Lyinger family," Su Wen said calmly. "First your eldest brother, then me and Tan Tan, and next is you."
Sinai was startled.
After pondering for a long time, Su Wen tapped his fingers lightly on the table, his eyes suddenly sharpening: "This matter must be investigated."
She turned her head, somewhat apologetically: "Little miracle doctor, I'm so sorry to have dragged you into this."
"You're too kind, Auntie." Ying Zijin nodded. "I was going to investigate that anyway."
Just as Suwen was about to speak, the communicator rang.
"Madam," the butler reported respectfully, "Third Master has returned."
“Alright.” Su Wen stood up, her eyes gentle. “Xiao Xinai, take the little divine doctor back to the research institute first. Recently, there has been bloodshed in the family, which is not good.”
Sina's expression hardened slightly: "Yes, sister-in-law."
The Lyinger family is about to be purged and bloodied.
**
Mo Qian was waiting in the lobby outside.
Footsteps sounded.
A beautiful woman walked in.
Mo Qian looked up and his heart skipped a beat.
Suwen!
"Third brother is back." Suwen took off his cloak and handed it to the steward beside him. He sat down in the seat of honor and smiled. "You've aged quite a bit over the years."
Mo Qian listened, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
After receiving the news that Suwen had woken up, he rushed back from the company.
Mo Qian did not want Su Wen to wake up, but he also dared not lay a hand on her.
He truly hadn't expected the Third Madam to be so audacious.
What a stupid woman!
He left traces of his actions, not only getting himself involved but also dragging him into it.
Mo Qian cursed inwardly.
The Suwen (素问) has always been known for its swift and decisive approach.
She was a woman, and her heart was incredibly cruel.
He is in no way inferior to Lu Yuan.
"My sister-in-law has finally recovered." Mo Qian lowered his head. "We are all very happy."
"Happy? Not necessarily." Su Wen raised her hand calmly. "Bring it up."
Within minutes, the Third Madam was dragged up from the mechanical prison by the guards.
In less than half a day, the Third Madam aged almost ten years.
When she saw Mo Qian, a glimmer of hope immediately appeared in her eyes: "Mo Qian, please plead for my sister-in-law! It really wasn't me, really!"
"Shut up!" Mo Qian gritted his teeth and said sharply, "You should be glad that your sister-in-law is safe and sound, otherwise, you wouldn't have enough lives to pay for it!"
In the Leinger family, the patriarch and the first wife represent all the ironclad rules.
No one dared to disobey.
"These are the family members you've harmed over the years." Su Wen tossed down a piece of paper. "You dare not touch the direct descendants, but aren't the lives of the collateral descendants also lives?"
The third wife trembled, her expression terrified: "Sister-in-law, I..."
Suwen has only been awake for a short time, yet she has already found out this information?!
Su Wen said calmly, "Make your move, but don't draw blood."
“Yes, Madam.” The butler stepped forward and took out the laser pistol that had been prepared.
"Bang!"
With a loud bang, the Third Madam collapsed.
Mo Qian felt a chill run through his body.
Suwen's gaze fell on him, her eyes slightly cold.
Just then, the head guard rushed in.
"Madam, something terrible has happened!" he exclaimed anxiously. "The car that Fifth Miss and the Divine Physician were in just now exploded in mid-air!"
Tanxin has absolutely nothing to do with the heart; it's just a name.
The meaning of "檀心" includes red heart and light red flower stamens, etc.
