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

Chapter 987 The Frail Heiress 32
"That's how it is. It's ridiculous that you and your son are coming to my Ling family to seek justice. You're really shameless." Ling Huan stood by Lian Yang's bedside and recounted in detail what Miao Xiu had done back then.

Whether Yang believes it or not doesn't matter; he's definitely going to bring this up once.

"Whether you believe it or not is not important to me. You can go and confirm it with Miao Xiu."

"By the way, Miao Xiu is your biological mother, Yun Xiuzi. Of course, she's not the real Yun Xiuzi; she killed someone and took her place," Ling Huan added, his expression remaining unchanged despite Lian Yang's incredulous look.

"You were planning to use my cousin for something, weren't you?"

Meng Xuan also arrived. He hadn't been clear about the details before, but now he was completely clear, so it wasn't difficult to determine Lian Yang's purpose. He had already suspected something about this. His previous confusion about the relationship between his aunt and uncle was now resolved.

In this matter, he really should thank Xia Zhen. If it weren't for her, he might have been completely outmaneuvered.

Lian Yang didn't want to believe it, but his mother had even committed murder to take her mother's place, so Ling Huan really had no reason to lie to him about something like this.

He always felt that the Ling family owed him and his mother something; if his mother hadn't been wronged, he would have been the young master of the Ling family too. He never imagined the truth would be like this. Even Ling Huan's birth defects were a consequence of his mother being angered by photos his mother sent her while she was pregnant.

Seeing that Lian Yang had nothing to say, Ling Huan decided to leave.

Actually, he didn't want to see Lian Yang at all; the other party's existence was quite irritating to the Ling and Meng families.

But we can't exactly have his parents come to meet this person.

"Wait a minute." Lian Yang suddenly spoke up, stopping Ling Huan who was walking towards the door of the ward.

Ling Huan turned around, unsure of what Lian Yang wanted to say, but Lian Yang's next words stunned him for a moment.

"No matter what, we are related by blood. Can you help me? Save my life? Can you help me find someone from the Holy Gu Clan? Or, can you ask Xia Zhen for help?" Lian Yang certainly didn't want to die. Ever since the mother Gu was killed, he could clearly feel the offspring Gu growing stronger. At this rate, he wouldn't live much longer.

Besides Xia Zhen, only the Holy Gu Clan could possibly save him.

If Xia Zhen doesn't save him, and the Holy Gu Clan is related to him by blood, is she really just going to watch him die?

Ling Huan stared at Lian Yang for a long while before speaking: "Aren't you worried about what will happen to Miao Xiu next? She's still your mother."

Miao Xiu is a twisted person. Despite having a decent environment in the Holy Gu Clan and never being mistreated or abused, she was actually valued by the clan because of her talent. Yet, she did such a thing.

She concealed the truth, which did harm Lian Yang, but she definitely cared about him.

Not long ago, after his parents visited Miao Xiu, she begged them for help, saying she wanted to save Lian Yang. She even said she wouldn't harm anyone, and would risk her own life.

However, this was not something his parents could decide. Given their past grievances, his parents were even less likely to agree to anything Miao Xiu wanted, and Miao Xiu did not get what she wished for.

Considering all these factors, it was impossible for the authorities to agree to Miao Xiu's request.

He and the Holy Gu Clan were worried that Miao Xiu's knowledge of the Life and Death Gu would tempt some people. After all, such a valuable item was enough to tempt some to have wicked thoughts.

Later, he did hear that someone was indeed planning to do this, asking Miao Xiu to write down the secret formula for cultivating the Life and Death Gu. The excuse was quite good; they wanted to do research. They really couldn't stop them, as there were far too many things involved to explain in a few words. However, just a few days later, they heard that there were problems with the formula Miao Xiu had written down. When those people went to question her, she instead berated them for not keeping their word. She had written everything clearly, yet they claimed she had written a fake.

Ling Huan didn't know the specifics, but one person immediately came to mind.

Thinking that he had an appointment with the other party later, he stepped out of the ward, his steps becoming lighter.

It was impossible for him to seek help from the Holy Gu Clan for Lian Yang, let alone say such a thing to Xia Zhen.

As for whether he is related to Lian Yang by blood?
He wouldn't be this angry if the other party hadn't brought it up.

He even wished that Lian Yang had never existed, so that his parents would suffer less.

Lian Yang watched helplessly as Ling Huan and Meng Xuan left, then lay powerless on the bed.

Is he just going to wait to die like this?

No, he didn't want to die, he really didn't want to die. He wanted to live.

He regretted it; he shouldn't have tried to scheme against the Xia family's assets.

It wouldn't have been right to choose to use the Life and Death Gu just for Qin Yin's sake.

It was Qin Yin's situation that made him make up his mind.

If only he hadn't cared so much about Qin Yin back then.

Why does he care about Qin Yin?

When Qin Yin came to see Lian Yang, she met a pair of eyes filled with resentment and hatred, and her heart skipped a beat.

Then I heard something chilling.

"Qin Yin, if only I hadn't fallen for you back then."

"Really, if it weren't for you, I might not have made up my mind to use the Life and Death Gu on Xia Zhen."

"If I hadn't done that, I wouldn't be the way I am now."

Qin Yin didn't speak. She had only recently truly understood Lian Yang's personality.

She just couldn't stand seeing him like this, with no one to care for him. Lian Yang had indeed taken good care of her in the past, so she thought she should repay him.

She couldn't be so heartless as to completely disregard everything.

However, given her own circumstances, she probably won't be able to come many more times.

Seeing that Qin Yin remained silent, Lian Yang began to complain about Miao Xiu again: "I thought my mother was betrayed by that Ling woman, but it turns out she was the one who interfered in someone else's marriage. When she failed, she even tried to force herself on her. Why did she lie to me?"

“If she hadn’t lied to me, I would never have schemed to take over the Xia family’s assets and helped her go back to get revenge. I wouldn’t be in this situation.”

"She also committed murder and took someone else's identity."

Does she really love me?

"No, she only cares about herself."

"It's all her fault. If it weren't for her, even if I had grown up in an ordinary family, I would be better off than I am now."

Not long after, more people came to see Lian Yang, asking if he wanted to see Miao Xiu. Lian Yang was more than happy to do so. Regardless of their motives, his mother was the only one who could save him now, despite his many grievances.

"Someone still had their eyes on the Life and Death Gu. Fortunately, the Holy Gu Clan destroyed it, otherwise who knows how much trouble would have ensued." In the coffee shop, Ling Huan and Azhen talked about this matter. "Miao Xiu secretly saw the secret formula, and it was inevitable that the information would be leaked. Whether it was to save her own life or for Lian Yang, this was a bargaining chip."

"So, Miao Xiu won't die anytime soon? I guess they'll be allowed to meet again?" A-Zhan asked. Actually, she had expected this outcome and had even taken precautions in advance.

Otherwise, through Miao Xiu, some people would have already obtained the secret formula for cultivating the Life and Death Gu.

This is a terrifying thing.

Some people don't want to die or get sick, so others will suffer.

No one is willing to sacrifice their life for something like this.

"More or less, but I heard that Miao Xiu gave a fake secret recipe. I wonder if she wanted to use it to personally save Lian Yang. I don't think Lian Yang is in good condition." Ling Huan added, putting down his coffee and looking at Azhen's face. "But these things are none of our business now."

"The matter has been resolved, Miss Xia. Shouldn't we talk about something else now?"
