The rain was getting heavier and heavier as it fell on Su Su's body. Her internal organs seemed to be in so much pain that they were torn apart. She forced herself to stand up. The dirty water had soaked the hem of her coarse clothes, and her black hair stuck to her cheeks. She glanced at the unconscious Lü Nong, her ears filled with the pipa tune played by another maid.
"Pei Siyuan! You're here, right?"
Gu Yizheng, who was cutting the long silk from the middle with a knife, was stunned in the air. Leng Yixue turned her body in the air and hit Gu Yizheng's chest mercilessly. When he was falling rapidly, he waved the long silk in his sleeve and wrapped it around his waist, pulling him back and smashing into a towering tree. Gu Yizheng slowly slid down the tree trunk, leaving behind a trail of dark red blood…
"Gu Yizheng!"
Su Su's voice was mournful. She thought that she liked Gu Yizheng, but not to the point where she would risk her life for her. The rational Su Su told herself that if there was love, there would be weakness. However, when she saw that man fall, she wanted to replace him with her body. She even admitted that her weakness was this man.
"Ah Wan, I love him very much! Haha…But he betrayed me! Then he deserved to die! And your mother! Your mother should also die! If it wasn't for your useless fake father and my gutless fourth brother! Su Rouying was already dead! Why did you wait until now?!"
She looked at the crazed woman, her hair in a mess. Su Su limped to her, his eyes filled with bloodlust.""You killed my mother, right? You killed my mother, right?"
Su Su grabbed Leng Huanhuan's neck and gathered all her strength in her palm. She stared at her with eyes that were about to pop out of their sockets. The scenery around her was moving backward. All the maids in green rushed forward but were left behind by Su Su.
Su Su grabbed Leng Yunxi's neck and pressed her against a pine tree that could only be hugged by three people. She watched as blood flowed out of Leng Yunxi's mouth."Tell me! Did you kill my mother? Isn't it? Zhongyuan was also killed by you back then, right?”
Leng Yunhuan's lips curled into a desolate smile. She slowly raised her hand and gently traced Su Su's eyebrows."You can't call him by his name. You should call him father.”
A bolt of lightning and thunder exploded in the sky above them. The sky gradually darkened. Su Su increased the strength in her hand. In an instant, more than a dozen short swords were placed on her shoulders. She looked down at the short sword on her shoulder, then lifted Leng Xiaxia's body up and said fiercely,""I'll kill you today, you lunatic!”
Behind her, the girls in green were holding their short swords against Su Su's neck. Hearing that she was going to kill Leng Yunhuan, they looked at each other and felt a chill on their necks when they were about to exert their strength. More than a dozen gleaming long sabers were placed on the necks of more than a dozen girls, and behind them stood men in the same armor. His imposing aura was like he was on the battlefield.
Su Su fell to the ground. All her strength had dissipated when she was gathering her internal energy. Leng Huanhuan also collapsed to the ground after getting some air. A pair of white satin boots walked up to Su Su, and a white oil-paper umbrella shielded her from the pouring rain. A large hand with defined joints reached out to her,""Su Su…"
Her consciousness was slowly fading as she bit her tongue hard. Su Su shook her head and forced herself to sit up. Looking at Gu Yizheng who was sitting under a big tree and looking at her, Su Su said lightly,""I want to save him."
Pei Siyuan tilted his head and looked at Gu Yizheng with the corner of his eyes. The smile in his charming eyes was gone, but the corners of his lips were still curled into a warm smile."It's just one person, so there's no harm in saving her. As long as Su Su stays obediently by my side, it's fine.”
Su Su was still sitting on the ground. The rain blocked Gu Yizheng's eyes, but she could still feel a bone-chilling coldness. Holding the pain in her heart, she stood up with Pei Siyuan's help.
Pei Siyuan wanted to say something, but Su Su gently broke free of his hand. He watched the weak figure hobble toward another man, and the anxiety overwhelmed him again. But the remaining voice told him that he couldn't. He couldn't stop her, or else it would only make her stay away from him.
Squatting in front of Gu Yizheng, Su Su looked into his cold and lifeless eyes, and her pale lips curled into a smile.""You haven't answered me yet. Are you willing to be with a woman like me…whose background is unknown, who is restrained by others, who is not free, and who is scheming against me?”
He looked up as if he could see a beautiful and stubborn woman squatting in front of him. When she said this, her lips must have been smiling beautifully, but she was frowning. He seemed to be able to guess that this time, her smile should be in her eyes.
Gu Yizheng swallowed the sweet taste that kept surging up her throat and raised her hand strenuously, slowly stroking Su Su's cheek. Her eyebrows were misty, her almond-shaped eyes were limpid, her skin was tender, and her lips were pale.
Su Su smiled and looked at him, but before he could answer, she had already put down her hand. Su Su looked at the unconscious Gu Yizheng in panic and wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth with her wet sleeve.""How…How could this be…You suffered such heavy…internal injuries, why didn't you say anything?”
"Enough, you guys take this man to the Zhang family in the village.”
"Yes, sir!"
Pei Siyuan watched impatiently as the two men carried Gu Yizheng away, but Su Su grabbed Gu Yizheng's robe in a panic and fell into the mud.""Where are you taking him? I've already promised you everything, where are you going to take him!”
Pei Siyuan felt as if something was disappearing from his heart. He looked at Su Su, who was holding onto Gu Yizheng's robe and refusing to let the soldiers leave. That cold and aloof woman was now in love and was disappearing from his world…He pulled Su Su up with force and laughed sinisterly."Take him where? Go to the place where you secretly colluded! Did Third Miss forget her identity? Before he found the Stream Purging Sword Technique, he was delusional about love! Aren't you afraid that I'll kill your little sister who's far away in the Shiying Mountain Manor?”
There was a muffled rumble of thunder and everything fell silent. Su Su stared blankly at the robe in her hand disappearing and Gu Yizheng being carried away. Pei Siyuan's hand was still tightly gripping her elbow. From the bulging veins on his hand, she could tell how much strength he had used, but she was not in pain. Compared to the pain in her heart, this was nothing.
Su Su looked into the distance. The dwindling rain nourished the fragility in her heart. Large drops of tears rolled down from her indifferent eyes. It dripped onto Pei Siyuan's heart and burned his heart.""Pei Siyuan, do you like me? Hehe…after such a scheme, do you think I still have the guts to respond to you?”
With a dry throat, Pei Siyuan gripped the umbrella in his hand tightly. The coldness extinguished his anger and he said with difficulty,""Why not? You're so smart, you should know how to differentiate when I'm sincere and when I'm fake.”
"Sincere? Fake?" Su Su tilted her head and looked at Pei Siyuan. She laughed mockingly, but the tears in her eyes flowed even more fiercely."I always thought…that you didn't have any experience. You didn't have it in the past, you don't have it now…I think you won't have it in the future.”
"Su Su…"
"Do you know that man is my sweetheart? Perhaps you didn't know before today, but you will know after today. The person I love is called Gu Yizheng. It doesn't matter who he was before. What's important is that he's the man I've decided on for the rest of my life.”Su Su lowered her eyes and looked at her dress that had been stained with mud. She did not spend much time with Gu Yizheng, but she felt at ease. She had not fallen in love with Gu Yizheng for a long time. It was just a moment.
Auntie Zhang looked at the men gathered at the entrance of the courtyard. All of them had serious expressions and stood tall and straight. The original Ah Wan had changed from Mrs. Gu to Miss Su, and a young master who was always dressed in white had come to accompany her. Young Master Gu fell to the ground and was served by a servant girl in green.
"Miss, Master Gu woke up today.”Lu Nong walked to Su Su's side and looked at Su Su who was sitting alone on the wooden chair in the courtyard. She bent down and whispered in her ear.
Su Su's fingers tightened around the porcelain cup in her hand. Her slightly white knuckles showed Su Su's emotions. Lowering her eyes slightly, Su Su took a sip of tea and said lightly,""It's good that you're awake."
Lu Nong looked at Su Su worriedly and turned to glance at Pei Siyuan, who was chatting with Brother Zhang about farming and raising the Zhuang family. She said softly,""Since Miss is worried, why don't you go and take a look? Young Master Gu must also want to see Young Lady.”
She had been taking care of Gu Yizheng for the past few days when she was unconscious. She knew that Miss would often stand outside the window and look at Gu Yizheng at night. Gu Yizheng had been haunted by nightmares for a few days. She naturally heard her calling Ah Wan. She wasn't stupid, so she naturally guessed some of the oddities.
"So what if I see it? It only makes me sad.”Su Su brushed her hair down and looked up at the blue sky. The glaring sunlight made everything hot and stuffy in the summer. She handed the cup to Lü Nong and brushed the moonlight veil over her white clothes."Lu Nong, I'm afraid I've lost again, but this time it wasn't too bad.”
When she saw Su Su's indifferent expression, Lunong lowered her head and murmured,""Young miss, last month fifth young miss turned fourteen, do you still remember?”
" Ran..." Su Su smiled faintly. She was not a good sister. She had even forgotten her sister's birthday. Ran, who was far away in the Shiying Mountain Villa, must be very sad! However, Leng Yunhua had given Ran to the ruthless Leng Yunru, so her Ran might still have a chance of survival.
"Young Lady need not worry, Fifth Young Lady is currently doing well. The day before yesterday, Young Master Meng Yu had already left the manor with Fifth Young Lady. I think it won't be long before he meets us.”
Su Su frowned and slightly tilted her head to look at Lü Nong."Meng Yu brought Ran out of the villa? Hehe…If I'm not wrong, Meng Yu and Ran can't leave alone. There must be someone watching them all the way, right?”
"Yes, Young Miss."”
Leng Ruoli? Thinking about it, she liked Meng Yu so much, so she naturally wouldn't let go of this opportunity to be with him. Since he could do things for his brother and fulfill his selfish motives, why not?
"Su Su, the weather is pretty good today. How about going out for a walk?”
