As expected by everyone, she became the wife of the Marquis after being married off

Shen Wanqing calmed down her expression which was about to collapse, her breath stuck in her throat, feeling more suffocated than ever before.

She looked at the radiant Shen Lanyue, and when she thought of herself now, she actually felt a little inferior and timid. People outside said that she was crazy, but she was the only one who knew that she was not crazy. On the contrary, she had been very sober recently.

She felt as if her brain was being pricked by countless needles when she was awake. Every night, she felt that dark shadows with unclear faces were swaying in front of her eyes, her nerves were throbbing, and the world was spinning.

Sometimes Shen Wanqing really thought that it would be better for her to go crazy so that she could get rid of all this.

But she couldn't. She became more and more immersed in the illusory dream. Shen Wanqing wanted to return to that dream, but the more she thought about it, the more her head hurt.

It hurt so much that she could only vent her emotions and pain.

Because of her actions, Li Wenxuan could no longer tolerate her behavior, so he moved her to this remote place and even let her fend for herself without anyone serving her.

Shen Wanqing could never have imagined that the man who once held her in his hands and cared for her and obeyed her in everything would become like this and treat her so cruelly.

So Shen Lanyue's words undoubtedly touched her heart!

Shen Wanqing couldn't speak. Her once beautiful eyes were now filled with deep ferocity and coldness. Her weak and sunken face made her look even more hollow and terrifying.

Shen Lanyue looked at her like this, with neither pride nor gloating in her eyes, just as calm as a pool of spring water.

"Shen Wanqing, I've actually wondered why you hate me so much."

Shen Wanqing stopped trying to get up and looked up at her.

Shen Lanyue lowered her eyes and said casually: "But no matter how I make excuses for you, they are not valid."

"When your mother entered the mansion, she had already become the stepmother, and you were also the legitimate daughter. Father favored you two and basically ignored me. I didn't even have a sense of existence in the mansion."

"But even so, you were still wary of me and plotted against me. It wasn't until your mother gave birth to Zi'an that you really stopped targeting me. But what about you, Shen Wanqing?"

Shen Lanyue walked up to her, her eyes as cold as a knife, piercing into Shen Wanqing's heart, making people tremble with fear.

Her tone was sarcastic.

"You are just like a dog-skin plaster. I ignore you, but you keep biting me and insist on showing off in front of me. If I resist you, you will make the people around me suffer."

Shen Lanyue sneered, "So, Shen Wanqing, you will get this ending. No matter how beautiful your appearance is, your heart is black. Whoever gets you will find out the filth behind you after a long time."

The expression on Shen Wanqing's face gradually changed from confusion to stiffness, resentment and viciousness as Shen Lanyue spoke.

She propped herself up from the bed with a breath, grabbed Shen Lanyue's sleeve tightly with one hand, stared at her fiercely, and no longer concealed her desire to strangle her to death.

The curve of Shen Lanyue's mouth corners became more and more upward. She lowered the corners of her eyes, reached out and held her hand, then effortlessly pushed her away, brushing her sleeves as if she had been touched by something dirty.

Shen Wanqing's originally weak body was thrown away by her force, and she fell on the bed, breathing heavily.

Shen Lanyue's face remained calm and composed, and her voice sounded like a muffled thunder, neither hurried nor slow.

"Yes, you guessed right. I did deliberately cause Marquis Changning to fall into the water when he came to the mansion, but you overestimated your charm. Oh, one more thing, do you know why Sun Shuhao hates you so much?"

Shen Wanqing suddenly turned around and glared at her.

"Heh, you went to see King Sheng on her wedding night. I gave her a big gift so that she could see you and King Sheng being intimate. Do you think she would hate you?"

"How come the lady Li in the mansion now looks so much like you by coincidence?"

Shen Wanqing looked up at her with her scarlet eyes in disbelief, her fingers trembling uncontrollably.

It's you! It turns out you designed all this!

Shen Wanqing wanted to scream loudly, or get up and strangle her, but she had no strength, and a pair of eyes stared at her like a ghost.

She saw Xiping standing behind her through Shen Lanyue's figure. Her face lit up with joy and she gave Shen Lanyue an evil smile.

Shen Wanqing gave Xiping a look, asking her to beat Shen Lanyue to death from behind.

She thought: Even if she dies, she will take that bitch Shen Lanyue with her!

Xiping looked at her expressionlessly and walked towards her slowly. Shen Wanqing's expression turned secretly happy as she moved.

Then her smile froze on her face.

Xi Ping walked up to Shen Lanyue and addressed her respectfully, "Miss."

Shen Lanyue glanced at Shen Wanqing with the corner of her eye and smiled sarcastically.

How could she not see the change in Shen Wanqing's eyes? Under her gaze, Shen Lanyue put her hand on Xiping's hand and patted it.

"Shen Wanqing, Xiping has always been mine. Your every move has been under my watch over the years."

Shen Wanqing's breathing became rapid and she coughed violently without making any sound. Because she was too emotional, she coughed even more violently and even spat out a mouthful of blood.

Xiping just stood there, looking at her with empty eyes and a dead face.

Shen Lanyue noticed her expression, silently comforted her, and turned to look at Shen Wanqing again.

"Over the years, you have beaten and scolded the maids and servants in the Shen Mansion whenever you were unhappy. You would sell them out for the smallest thing. I can't count the number of times. Xiping's sister hurt you when she was dressing you, so you asked your mother to sell her to a brothel, where she was tortured to death."

"Shen Wanqing, when I say you are vicious, I have never wronged you."

Xiping secretly lowered her head, clenched her fists tightly, and her nails dug deep into her palms.

When Xiping learned that her sister was sent to a brothel by Shen Wanqing and tortured to death, she wanted to kill Shen Wanqing with a dagger after the seventh day. It was Shen Lanyue who stopped her and even gave her an opportunity.

Because Xiping in her previous life never got close to Shen Wanqing, she was killed by the secret guards sent by Li Wenxuan who was by her side.

And in this life, Shen Lanyue agreed to let her witness with her own eyes Shen Wanqing being tortured and falling into an irretrievable situation.

Of course, Shen Lanyue also told her that if she went to serve Shen Wanqing, she might be beaten and scolded by her, or even her life might be in danger. It was up to her to decide whether to do so or not.

Shen Lanyue remembered that Xi Ping was filled with hatred and resentment, and said with tears in her eyes: "I only have one request, I want to do it myself!"
