With the cannon fodder script in hand, it is easy for the king to change his fate

Chapter 986 The Frail Heiress 31
"Yinyin, doing this is not only for my own purpose, but also for you."

"I didn't originally intend to use that plan, but I saw that your condition was very bad, and if I didn't take action soon, you would die, so I made up my mind."

Do you really think I like Xia Zhen?

"I know you definitely wouldn't agree to this if you knew the truth, which is why I didn't dare tell you anything. As long as you can continue to live, that's enough for me."

"You have no idea how heartbroken I was when I saw you so weak. But for your sake, and for my revenge plan, I dared not show any emotion, otherwise, if I were noticed, all my efforts would be in vain."

Qin Yin's eyes were bloodshot: "If I had known the truth, I would never have agreed."

"I can't blame you for doing this for me, but if you sacrifice others to save my life, I'll never have peace of mind."

"Although you like me, you care more about yourself, otherwise you wouldn't have killed the mother Gu in my body again. I'm not saying this to blame you. In the face of life and death, choosing yourself is perfectly normal."

"Alright, I don't want to say anything else." Qin Yin felt there was no point in discussing these things, as everyone had their own perspective. "I'll come see you again tomorrow. I'll keep an eye on things regarding Auntie."

She really couldn't bring herself to ignore Lian Yang.

Seeing Qin Yin about to leave, Lian Yang quickly called her back: "Yinyin, you know my current situation is related to Xia Zhen. The Gu worm in my heart is constantly absorbing my life force. If this continues, I will only die. The only one who can save me now is Xia Zhen. As long as she speaks, I can live."

"For the sake of our past relationship, could you please help me? You're the only one who can help me now."

"Besides, we live in a society governed by law. Xia Zhen probably doesn't want to be branded as a murderer, does she?"

Qin Yin hesitated for a moment, then said, "I can talk to her."

She didn't want to watch Lian Yang die, and although she felt the hope was slim, she still wanted to try.

Back at school, Qin Yin vaguely heard people talking about Lian Yang, and realized that the news had spread.

At this moment, she remembered that she had received many notifications on her phone that she hadn't had time to check. She quickly opened them and found that various groups were discussing Lian Yang poisoning Xia Zhen in an attempt to kill her offspring. The matter of Lian Yang's mother being arrested for involvement in a murder was also being discussed.

When I got back to the dorm, all my roommates were there.

It wasn't a good time to speak up, and seeing that Qiao Jiajia and Nie Xiaomei had no intention of leaving the dormitory, Qin Yin had no choice but to send a message to Azhen, indicating that she wanted to talk to her.

A-Zhou directly told her to send a message to discuss it.

Qin Yin took a deep breath and explained her purpose.

Azhen had expected this and wasn't surprised at all; that's just Qin Yin's personality. If you were to call her bad, she certainly wasn't.

Xia Zhen: I'm powerless to help Lian Yang. Aren't the people who practice Gu magic the Holy Gu Clan? Why not just ask someone from the Holy Gu Clan? And isn't Lian Yang's mother also very skilled in this area? Why did they come to me for help?

Even if she did it, who has proof?
The Xia family has never hired any experts.

Upon hearing this, Qin Yin knew that Xia Zhen would not help Lian Yang.

Qin Yin: Lian Yang did that kind of thing to you, he certainly deserves to be punished, but if he continues like this, he will die.

Xia Zhen: His death has nothing to do with me. Is it possible that the Gu in his body was a backlash from their Gu magic and automatically ran into Lian Yang's body?
Qin Yin took a deep breath, at a loss for words.

Xia Zhen: To be honest, it's fortunate that it was a backlash, otherwise I don't know how long I would have lived. If their plan had succeeded, my family might have been destroyed.

Upon seeing this message, Qin Yin fell silent and did not send any further messages.

Yes, if we put ourselves in Xia Zhen's shoes, what Lian Yang did was out of deep hatred. How could we expect her to save Lian Yang? Xia Zhen: I heard that your recovery was due to Lian Yang giving you that life-and-death Gu. Instead of worrying about Lian Yang's situation, you should worry about yourself.

Qin Yin was startled and suddenly realized what was happening.

Yes, now that the mother Gu is gone, according to Lian Yang and his mother, her body will gradually return to its previous state, or even worsen.

Qin Yin was in a bit of a mess and didn't bother to persuade Azhen.

Given her previous physical condition, she wouldn't have lived much longer. The thought of leaving this world and parting from her loved ones filled her with panic.

Without Qin Yin's interference, Azhen took out her homework and started doing it.

That's the downside of being a student; even university students have assignments. Having taken on this role, it's not easy not to complete them.

Xia Jinsheng rushed back that evening and came directly to the school.

Fortunately, it wasn't time for the school to turn off the lights yet, and Azhen and Xia Jinsheng met up.

"Fortunately, the Ling family was involved this time, and they sensed something was wrong, otherwise we wouldn't know what to do." Xia Jinsheng said with relief, "I didn't expect Lian Yang to be so ambitious. Dad misjudged him."

“How can you blame Dad? Who would have thought he had such a purpose? The hospital couldn’t find anything wrong with my health, so how could I have imagined that he set me up?”

Xia Jinsheng said, "It's my father's fault for being so ignorant. If he had known about Gu worms earlier, he should have inquired more about them."

“Not many people know about the Holy Gu Clan. Even if some people hear about it, they just think it’s an exaggeration and not many people believe it,” Azhen said. “Besides, I have red marks on my face, but it’s not like I have any other health problems. Even people who know about Gu techniques would find it hard to connect it to this.”

Azhen's words were true. Even the Holy Gu Clan would find it hard to imagine this. After examining the body and finding no other problems, many doctors even thought it was a strange skin disease. Various strange skin diseases are not uncommon in this world.

Moreover, if it weren't for her, even if they realized there were Gu worms, with Miao Xiu around, the Holy Gu Clan probably wouldn't have been able to solve the problem.

"It's good that you're alright. I didn't expect Yun Xiuzi to be involved in murder. I heard she impersonated someone else; the details are still under investigation." Xia Jinsheng felt increasingly relieved as he spoke. Only then did he notice that the red mark on Azhen's face had faded considerably and even shrunk a bit. "Does she look better?"

"The people from the Holy Gu Clan said that without the offspring Gu, the body will slowly recover," Azhen said without changing her expression.

"How did the Zi Gu end up on Lian Yang?" Xia Jinsheng asked.

Azhen shook her head: "I don't know either. I guess it involves internal strife within the Holy Gu Clan."

Xia Jinsheng thought about it and felt it was possible.

This matter was thus glossed over.

The investigation results came out the next day, and Ling Huan even came over to deliver the message to Azhen.

Azhen looked at the photo Ling Huan showed her and recognized the eyes in it: "Is this Miao Xiu's true face?"

In that case, there's no need for further investigation; Miao Xiu's identity can be confirmed without any further investigation.

“Yes, it’s her. She was taken back yesterday, and at the suggestion of the two elders, the police uncovered her true identity,” Ling Huan said.

His parents found out about this and are already on their way back to China.

Upon learning that Lian Yang and his mother had said Ling Sai was a heartless man, the two were furious and decided to come back and settle the matter.
