Chapter 443 - 442 She Just Wants to Survive, What’s Wrong with That?

Chapter 443: Chapter 442 She Just Wants to Survive, What’s Wrong with That?

It’s said to be nighttime.

But on such a dark, windy night, it’s also the most dangerous time.

Today, they had finally managed to arrive at a village after rushing all day.

They exchanged some money for a few clean houses, and a caravan of people finally had a place to stay.

Huai Xinmei heard Yan Lingzhen’s voice outside the carriage before she even descended, "Lu Yin, bring the people down."

Suddenly, Huai Xinmei opened her eyes.

At that moment, Lu Yin was still kneeling in the carriage, but after seeing Huai Xinmei nod, she got up from the ground. Having knelt for so long, her knees had gone numb and stiff, almost falling forward as she rose. Luckily, Lu Yin steadied herself by holding onto the edge of the carriage window.

"Right away, Miss Six."

Lu Yin called out from inside the carriage.

Then she helped Huai Xinmei off the carriage.

Yan Lingzhen watched Huai Xinmei with her haughty demeanor, walking ahead with a straight back, and her expression became subtly complex.

This rascal, she must think I don’t dare to touch her, thus putting on this dead man’s act.

It’s truly nauseating to watch.

Even so, I still have to prepare a room for her.

It’s genuinely infuriating.

Once we get back to the Capital City, I definitely have to pay a visit to Tongren Hall, to thoroughly check the medicine stock to see if I can find a cure for this damned Concentric Gu.

"Lu Yin, you go rest. I’ll handle this," Yan Lingzhen ordered.

Lu Yin didn’t move at first, but quickly realized what was happening, bowed to Yan Lingzhen, and then left.

Huai Xinmei’s hands and feet were free from shackles, and she could move at ease, enjoying the most comfortable time she had had in a while—if she could ignore the burning pain coming from her internal organs.

"Give me the antidote," she said to Yan Lingzhen.

Yan Lingzhen raised an eyebrow, took out a green bottle from her bosom, poured out a pill, and placed it on a small plate on the table, "This is today’s portion."

Huai Xinmei didn’t want to die.

She also couldn’t be bothered to guard against Huai Xinmei escaping, so she simply poisoned her directly, giving her the antidote in installments, on time every day.

Huai Xinmei said nothing, picked up the antidote from the plate, stuffed it in her mouth, and swallowed it.

The burning sensation in her organs vanished instantly, and she let out a comfortable sigh.

There was a time when she thought having a healthy body was an extraordinarily happy thing.

Once her spirits had recovered, she turned her gaze onto Yan Lingzhen, the corners of her lips curling into a mocking sneer, "You little girl, are quite sinister. Your sister clearly did not instruct you to poison me, this was your own scheming."

"Then go tell my sister, accuse me of poisoning you," Yan Lingzhen retorted.

That remark infuriated Huai Xinmei.

"So young and yet so malevolent at heart, the Yan Family indeed has good family traditions," she said bitterly.

Yan Lingzhen’s eyelids did not even lift, "We can’t compare to the second branch of your Huai Family. Dragons beget dragons, and phoenixes beget phoenixes; the rats from your family surely know how to dig holes. Compared with Miss Huai Yu, Xiaoliu’s little tricks are just a minor skill. You are the main culprit behind the demise of the entire nobility of the Southern Border."

Huai Xinmei’s face turned ashen, "The executioners are your sister and the Crown Prince, what does that have to do with me?! It’s you who are cruel-hearted and intolerant, yet you blame your crimes on me. I just want to survive, what crime have I committed?"

Why must people always force her?

Force her onto a road of no return!

Hearing these grandiose words, Yan Lingzhen’s eyes were filled with pity.

This woman is beyond saving.

"The night you brought the Angel Envoy of the Radiant Church to force my Sister Huai Yu to her death, you should have realized that good and evil eventually pay off, not that they won’t pay, the time just hasn’t come. The suffering you’re enduring now is just paying off your debts, so Huai Xinmei, stop acting like everyone owes you. It just makes people feel unlucky to look at you."

Yan Lingzhen spoke without a hint of mercy, she certainly wasn’t going to indulge the woman in front of her.

Hearing her words, Huai Xinmei stood up angrily from the chair and swept the only dish on the table onto the floor.

"What does Huai Yu’s death have to do with me?! She died on the merciless pillow of Wu Zhen, died from her own soft-heartedness. If she hadn’t repeatedly begged Wu Zhen for that laughable motherly love, relying on herself, where couldn’t she have found love? But she had to have Wu Zhen’s, can that be blamed on me? One willing to strike, the other willing to suffer. Huai Yu is already dead, what right do you have to torment me, the living, because of a dead person?! Is that fair?"

Her father had already died just to survive.

From now on in this world, she, Huai Xinmei, had no family left.

Alone, helpless and desolate.

Yet now, this group of Yan Family people still want to torment her, to seek revenge for a bunch of dead people.

Ridiculous to the extreme!

They’re already dead!

In this world, the living make the rules, what say do the dead have?

"I advise you to speak less now." Yan Lingzhen’s lips were tightly pursed, showing how terrible her mood was at the moment.

Huai Xinmei instantly fell silent.

She had witnessed the ruthless methods of this ferocious girl.

Torturing in endless ways.

She had just felt a bit better and didn’t want to provoke displeasure again.

Seeing that Huai Xinmei finally got the hint, Yan Lingzhen’s eyes glinted coldly and swept over her, "You’d better pray that I don’t find a way to suppress the Concentric Gu." Otherwise, the day that the Poisonous Insect comes out, she’d take Huai Xinmei’s life to appease the spirit of Sister Huai Yu in heaven!

What Yan Lingzhen said, she would do.

The door was slammed with force, Huai Xinmei’s body shuddered with the loud sound.

The back door was slowly pushed open, Lu Yin’s face appeared, "Mistress."

"Come in and make the bed." With a grim face, Huai Xinmei suppressed the palpitations in her heart, pouring all her anger onto Lu Yin.

Lu Yin had no choice but to hurry in and make the bed properly.

Huai Xinmei quickly lay down on it, for such a long time, this was the first time she lay down to sleep, it was truly rare.

The more this happened, the deeper the hatred in her heart accumulated.

She refused to believe that the heavens would always favor these Yan Family people.

Just give her a chance, and she would see to it that these people never recover!

Meanwhile, Yan Lingzhen left Huai Xinmei’s room, her little face as cold as a piece of ice.

She walked quickly, just in time to see a figure in red heading towards her mother’s room.

She had seen that person before, an acquaintance.

At the moment, inside the room, Lady Sun’s mind was a mess, filled with everything that Yan Wanqing had told her happened at the Southern Border.

"Wu Zhen is so muddleheaded." She had not expected her handkerchief friendship of many years to turn out like this.

Before she was married, Wu Zhen was such a cheerful girl.

It truly made one sigh.

"This is the only child left to the Wu Family." Yan Wanqing watched the man who walked in from outside the door, let out a light sigh, "Come over and meet the Lady of the Township Manor, Wu Bie."
