Granny Li started crying as she spoke. She did not have the courage to continue. After a pause, she continued," Sister is like this. There's no other way but to follow him. Logically speaking, since Zhao Shengming had his sister, he should have let his family go. However, not only did he not let her go, but he also killed his parents and told his sister that they were sick. His sister didn't believe him and got someone to investigate. When she finally found out the truth, she was very angry, but there was nothing she could do. " Sister is pregnant and gave birth to you. It's a daughter. Zhao Shengming is not willing, but after all, you are his flesh and blood. He doesn't dare to do anything to you, so he vented his anger on your mother. I was already there and saw Zhao Shengming beating and scolding your mother. I wanted to stop him, but for you, my sister didn't let me go. After giving birth, her sister's health was not good. She could not stand Zhao Shengming's beating and scolding. He felt that he couldn't take it anymore, so he let me go over and hoped that I would stay and take care of you. I was unwilling at first, but seeing her like that, I could only agree. In order to stay, I was careful and pretended to be deaf and dumb. I finally lived until today. I thought I would be free after you left. I knew that I would die in Zhao Shengming's hands one day. However, I can tell you these things. Even if I die, I can rest in peace. You must think that your mother is taking revenge. Do you know that it's not easy for her?”
"I know, I know. I will definitely avenge her. Don't worry.”Zhao Luyan desperately nodded." But you can't die. If you die, what will happen to me?" I can't live alone in the future. I need you by my side. Mother is gone, you are my mother. I haven't had the time to repay you for raising me for so many years. You can't leave like this. How about this, I'll send you away tomorrow morning. Find a quiet place where Zhao Shengming can't find you. You can wait for me there.”
Granny Li shook her head." No need. You have more important things to do tomorrow morning. You don't have to worry about it." I've lived for so many years and watched you grow up. I'm satisfied. If Zhao Shengming wants me dead, no one can save me, not even you. You heard what he said just now. If you don't listen to him and go against him, he won't let you off. So you can't go against him now. Don't lose a lot because of an ordinary person like me. Once, I wanted to rely on my own strength to avenge my sister and my family, but I didn't have the ability. I can only rely on you. Don't disappoint me.”
"I won't let you down." Zhao Luyan shook her head and said firmly," Although you didn't tell me how my mother died in Zhao Shengming's hands, I made up my mind to avenge my mother when I found out about it. It's still the same now. Nothing has changed." Sooner or later, I will destroy Zhao Shengming in my hands. Just wait and see.”After saying that, he clenched his fists tightly.
Seeing her like this, Granny Li smiled in relief.""I didn't misjudge you. I also believed that such a day would come, but I can't see it. I can't bear to part with you now. It's a pity that I can't accompany you. You have to be well. If you're not confident, don't go against Zhao Shengming. You have to listen to Fu Ruihai. I know he's doing this for your own good. Don't kill people recklessly anymore. You will suffer retribution. Your father is like this. You can't repeat the same mistake. Also, when it comes to Lu Yueqin, you should be lenient. Don't force her. She's also a pitiful person. Xi Mei is a good girl and is loyal to you. You have to treat her well and protect her. It's not easy for her. I wanted to take her away, but now I don't have the chance, no chance, no chance…"
As Zhao Luyan listened, she fell silent. When she looked up, Granny Li had already closed her eyes. A dagger was stabbed into her chest. Granny Li was dead. Zhao Luyan was shocked. She instinctively wanted to scream, but she was afraid that others would hear her. She quickly covered her mouth and cried silently. After crying for a long time, she stopped and wiped her tears. She stood up and covered Granny Li with the blanket. She looked at her for a while and prepared to leave. When he reached the door, he suddenly thought of something and turned back. He sat down at the table, took out a pen and paper, wrote something, and placed it beside Granny Li. He turned off the lights and went out. She instinctively looked at her father's room. The lights were off. It seemed that he had already rested. If Granny Li died, her father would not suspect her anymore, and she could continue to endure hardships. If his father had seen Granny Li's "will", he would have been very relieved. Zhao Shengming, one day, I will make you pay with your blood.
The next day, someone came to report that Granny Li had committed suicide. Zhao Shengming and Zhao Luyan rushed to Granny Li's room. When they saw Granny Li's corpse, Zhao Luyan couldn't help but cry. This wasn't sadness in her heart, nor was it reminiscence. She was deliberately putting it on for her father to see. Zhao Luyan cried as she looked at her father. At this moment, he was holding the "will" and reading it carefully. It seemed that he did not suspect anything. Zhao Luyan was relieved and cried even more sadly. After a while, she suddenly felt someone pat her shoulder. She turned around and saw that it was Zhao Shengming. She lay in his arms and cried," Why is this happening? Why is this happening? He was fine yesterday, but why is he…"
"Take a look at this letter." Zhao Shengming handed the will to her and sighed." She can't bear to part with you. You two have been like mother and daughter for so many years and have never been separated. When she heard that you were leaving, she naturally couldn't bear to part with you." When I told her yesterday, she kept crying. I thought that she would cry it off. I didn't expect her to do such a thing.”
"I came to see her yesterday. She was very happy when I told her about it. I didn't expect her to suddenly…If I had stayed here with her last night, these things might not have happened.”Zhao Luyan deliberately blamed herself.
"Forget it. It has already happened. No one can change it. The person is dead.”Zhao Shengming was very pleased with himself. Granny Li was finally dead, and no one knew about him anymore. However, when he faced his daughter, his face was filled with sorrow. He stroked her hair and said gently," Alright, don't be sad. Be careful not to cry. Get up. The floor is cold."”He helped Zhao Luyan up and looked at her. Shaking his head, he sighed and said," You won't be able to go out and meet people in this state today. It's better for you to stay at home and have a good rest. I'll tell you about Lu Yueqin."”As he spoke, he let go of his daughter and was about to leave. He had only taken a few steps when Zhao Luyan pulled him back.
"Father, I'll go." Zhao Luyan said firmly," How can we give up on this rare opportunity? Who knows when Lu Yueqin will come back next time? If she suddenly changes her mind, wouldn't we be wasting our efforts?”
" Then you…" Zhao Shengming looked at his daughter worriedly. Was it really okay for her to look so sad? After all, she was his biological daughter, so Zhao Shengming was very concerned about her.
"Alright." Zhao Luyan wiped her tears and said with certainty," I might not look good now, but I'll get Ximei to dress me up." There was only one chance. If he missed it, there would be no more. Father, I've long prepared myself. No matter what happens, I must go out today. Father, don't worry. I'm fine, but I'm going to take some time. Tell them to prepare first. I'll be there soon.”
"You are indeed my daughter. You are different from others.”Zhao Shengming said excitedly. He patted Zhao Luyan's shoulder and continued to smile," Okay, I'll get people to prepare immediately. Everything will proceed according to the original plan.”With that, he laughed and walked out.
Zhao Luyan looked at her father's back and felt upset. She thought of Granny Li's death and the words she said last night. She felt very sad, but she gritted her teeth and didn't cry. Looking at Granny Li's corpse, he calmly ordered the people behind him,""Bury Granny Li properly. It can't be simple. She likes peace and quiet. Find a better place. If I come back in the future and can't find her grave, all of you will be buried with her. Do you understand? Don't play any tricks with me. Don't think that I can't control all of you after I enter the palace. When the time comes, I'll let Ximei go with you. If she's satisfied, you can bury her.”Seeing that Zhao Luyan was angry, the few of them quickly nodded. They did not dare to be negligent. They did not understand and were not convinced, but they did not dare to refute. This was not an ordinary young miss. They could not afford to offend her. Zhao Luyan was finally relieved when she saw that the few of them had agreed. She said to Granny Li in her heart," Aunt, don't worry. I will never let you repeat my mother's mistakes. I will not let them throw you into the unmarked graves and leave you with no one to rely on. I will give you the best."”
Although those people had already agreed, Zhao Luyan knew that those people were her father's people. On the surface, they were respectful to her, but in fact, they were not convinced. Perhaps they would not do as she said. It seemed that she could not rely on them. What should she do? After some thought, he finally had an idea. After returning to her room, she asked Xi Mei to dress herself up. While she was dressing up, Zhao Luyan instructed,"I'm worried about those people. They're my father's people. They definitely won't do as I say. How about this, after they bury Granny Li, if they don't choose a good place, you can go to Liu Desheng and ask them to rebury her. It can't be done casually. Granny Li is very important to me, so tell them to choose a good place.”
"Got it. I'll arrange it." Although she didn't know the exact relationship between Zhao Luyan and Granny Li, Xi Mei could tell that Granny Li was sincerely concerned about Zhao Luyan. In addition, Granny Li had always treated her well. Xi Mei was also very sad about Granny Li's sudden departure. However, with her current identity, she couldn't cry. She could only silently grieve. For some reason, Xi Mei felt that Granny Li's death wasn't that simple. If it was just because she couldn't bear it, she would commit suicide. Although Zhao Luyan looked very sad, Xi Mei felt that something was missing. Could Zhao Luyan know the real reason? Xi Mei guessed but did not dare to ask. She knew that Zhao Luyan was in a bad mood. If she said something wrong at this time, Zhao Luyan would definitely be angry. It was better not to provoke her.
"Although Yi Yunfei is still one of my people, I'm getting more and more worried about him following my father. Moreover, he has a lot of secrets. He didn't tell me clearly, so I can't trust him now. Watch him and see what he wants Father to do.”Seeing Xi Mei's troubled look, Zhao Luyan felt helpless. She sighed and said impatiently," I know you have no choice. Go find Liu Desheng and ask him to help me look after Yi Yunfei.”
" Liu Desheng and Yi Yun aren't like brothers. I'm afraid they won't agree to such a thing.”Xi Mei said worriedly. Although Liu Desheng and company were Zhao Luyan's people, Xi Mei was the one who transmitted the signal every time. Therefore, Xi Mei knew them very well. Afraid that Zhao Luyan would not believe her, she said," This time, Yi Yun has been gone for so long. He is nowhere to be found. Not only did Liu Desheng and company not care, they did not seem to suspect anything. If those people did not know where Yi Yunfei had gone, they would believe him. I don't think it's possible for Liu Desheng to follow Yi Yunfei.”
