Chapter 156: Chapter 156: Premeditation
Su Xue said this, looking up at Qin Nanyi only to find her particularly disbelief, and urgently continued, "Han Yi has always liked Han Jiaojiao! Who in Qingjiang City doesn’t know he dotes on his sister? It’s just that because of his status no one dares to say a word. Living under the same roof for so many years, anything could happen between a man and a woman, ostensibly siblings, but actually, their relationship has long been unclean..."
"Slap!——"
Su Xue’s face now bore the imprint of a red palm, while Qin Nanyi was staring at her, her face filled with furious indignation.
"You... You actually say Ayi, Ayi and his own sister... It’s impossible!"
Despite the pain on her face, Su Xue’s heart had already calmed down, even containing a restrained schadenfreude, she thought: If you find it so impossible, why did you bring me here to interrogate me? Or is it that you also feel something’s off with those siblings?
But, getting Qin Nanyi to deal with Han Jiaojiao was indeed a good plan.
Su Xue snickered to herself, yet her face showed righteous indignation and unwillingness, "Miss Qin! What I said is true! Han Yi is very strict with Han Jiaojiao. Over these years, Han Jiaojiao hasn’t even made a single normal male friend, let alone a boyfriend. What do you think that means? Han Jiaojiao also told me that Han Yi can sense where she is. No matter where she goes, Han Yi can find her in no time. Miss Qin, if you don’t believe it, you might as well try it! Then you’d know everything I’ve said is true!"
Qin Nanyi looked at Su Xue in shock, mouth agape, at a loss for words.
The man she had waited for all these years, he was already with another woman? And... that woman was actually his sister?...
Qin Nanyi felt like a joke.
She remembered the last time in the hospital when Han Jiaojiao glared at her like she was seeing an enemy, insisting that Ayi not see her and saying many harsh words... So that’s how it was... So that’s how it was...
Qin Nanyi slumped down, feeling nearly powerless, her mind in chaos, only feeling like God had played a cruel joke on her.
"Miss..."
"I’m fine, let her go." Qin Nanyi held her forehead, no longer wanting to see Su Xue.
Su Xue struggled to her feet, covering the wound on her head, and hobbled out of the room.
Outside the corridor, someone quickly escorted Su Xue away. The bodyguard, hesitating, said to Qin Nanyi, "Miss, about this matter... should we tell Madam?"
Tell Mom? How should I tell her?... That all these years, I was just being wishful? That actually, Ayi isn’t indifferent, he just fell for his own sister, that he never liked me at all?
Qin Nanyi was inwardly morose. With so many men courting her, why did she only want him?... Give up? No... No, she can’t. She had waited so many years; she couldn’t have waited in vain, and besides, like Mom said, he was the best choice. Which of those men could compete with Wenhao? Who else could be better than him?
They were born on the same day, and even their awakened Abilities were of the Psychic Type; they were destined to be together.
If only there were no Han Jiaojiao.
Qin Nanyi’s heart skipped, her hand clenching into a fist. —— If there were no Han Jiaojiao, there wouldn’t all these troubles, Ayi would listen to Mom, he would go to Yunan, he would marry her...
"How’s it going with Wenhao’s side?" Qin Nanyi suddenly asked.
The bodyguard was startled and a look of difficulty crossed his face, "Miss, Wenhao has been hanging around with those twin girls these past few days. Our people mentioned it once, but it had no effect; if we bring it up again... it would be too obvious..."
Qin Nanyi sneered, "He’s currently infatuated with those twins; of course, just mentioning the name won’t work. He’ll be interested once he meets them in person."
"Does Miss want to arrange a meeting with Wenhao?"
"Invite him? Ha... Even if I did, he might not show up. He’s never taken me seriously."
Qin Nanyi pondered for a moment, then waved to the bodyguard and spoke in a lowered voice, "Arrange it like this..."
......
When Su Xue left, her heart was filled with indescribable emotions. Fear, excitement, exhilaration...
She tried to calm herself, but the satisfaction inside her was like the undulating waves on the river, impossible to quell. Even though nothing had happened yet, she seemed to have already seen the pitiable sight of Han Jiaojiao begging and crying after being tormented by Qin Nanyi.
You and I are ultimately the same, there’s no reason you should live in luxury while I’m left with scraps. Han Jiaojiao, what I can’t have, you also can’t have, what I can’t do, you can’t do either. One day, you will taste everything I’ve suffered.
A twisted smile appeared on Su Xue’s face, but it quickly froze and became extremely ugly.
"Luosheng... Luosheng?"
Xu Luosheng stood at the foot of the dormitory building, looking like he was waiting for her. He looked pale and his gaze towards Su Xue was distant and indifferent.
"Did you spread those words?" Xu Luosheng asked.
Su Xue’s face stiffened, and with a hand to her forehead, she forced a smile, "Luosheng, what are you talking about? I don’t understand. I’m injured, can you help me... "
"Su Xue!" Xu Luosheng couldn’t contain his outrage as he called out her name, his voice filled with pain and reproach, "How could you be so venomous?! By spreading such words, how do you expect Jiaojiao to face others from now on? Weren’t you all friends?!"
Su Xue was taken aback, followed by an uncontrollable surge of anger and resentment, "I’m venomous?! She’s the one who did such shameless things, so why am I the one being called venomous in the end?! She lives in a big house and enjoys delicacies, what about me?! Has she ever treated me like a friend?! Isn’t she the one who’s made me lose face time and time again?!"
"Is that... is that really what you think?" Xu Luosheng looked at Su Xue incredulously, unable to accept that the person before him was the once gentle and considerate Su Xue.
He took a couple of deep breaths and said harshly, "I was wrong about you! I won’t involve myself in your affairs from now on!" With that, he turned and strode away.
"Luosheng!" Su Xue panicked!
If Xu Luosheng stopped caring for her, how would she continue to live?! She didn’t want to do tiring and complicated work, nor did she want to take on missions with mediocre people! She couldn’t continue to be ground down like this! She was young, she could live better than Han Jiaojiao! She couldn’t be without Xu Luosheng!
"Luosheng, Luosheng!"
Su Xue hurried after him. But her knee had been injured at Qin Nanyi’s earlier, and she couldn’t walk fast. Blood from a gash on her forehead stuck to her eyelashes, blurring her vision. She didn’t know if it was out of urgency or because of the injury, but Su Xue felt dizzy and her vision swam.
She tried to catch up with Xu Luosheng, but as she reached the next corner, everything went black! Someone was covering her mouth!
Su Xue wanted to scream, but her head grew heavier and her body slumped down, losing consciousness. Before she passed out, she heard men talking near her ear—
"The last one died after just a few days of fun. Hopefully, this one will last longer. Otherwise, we’ll have to go through the hassle of finding another... Ah, Beicheng Base may seem big, but why can’t a single decent woman be found here."
"What do you expect when the boss only likes them young? There aren’t many women in the base to begin with... Ah, the boss has been in a foul mood lately, we better hurry and take her. Who knows if he’ll be satisfied with this one... "
"Yeah, let’s go..."
