Shengjing Noble

Chapter 51: Watching with cold eyes

This sentence left Liwen speechless, with embarrassment all over her face.

She stammered and was unable to speak, and the guilt in her eyes became more and more obvious, even Cuizhu could see the clue.

"Why don't you answer the girl's question? Oh, I see. Did Ah Cheng abandon you after having sex with you?"

Liwen's eyes flashed with hatred, and she gritted her teeth and said, "No, it's not like that. Ah Cheng is just not ready to ask Madam for help yet!"

Su Lanyin smiled coldly, with an expression full of undisguised sarcasm.

"is it?"

Cui Zhu said disdainfully, "What do you mean you are not ready? He dared to ask you to marry him before, so why doesn't he dare to ask the first lady now? I'm afraid that after you left Suiyuexuan, you had no money to support him, and now you have been reduced to a low-ranking maid, he has long looked down on you!"

Although Liwen was a second-class maid beside Su Lanyin before, she never did any hard work. She lived a life of luxury like a young lady on weekdays, with a group of lower-class maids surrounding her and flattering her in various ways.

In addition, Suiyuexuan and her daughter were very generous and tolerant to their servants, and the monthly subsidies and benefits were very generous.

So, apart from not having the title of a first-class maid, Liwen had the best food, clothing, and shelter, and she had plenty of money to spend.

Steward Liu is a smooth and worldly-wise man, and his son naturally follows his example. He was attracted by the advantages of Suiyuexuan, so he let Ah Cheng get close to it on purpose.

From the very beginning, Ah Cheng's target was Cui Zhu, but Cui Zhu was sober and fierce, so she not only ignored him but also humiliated him severely.

In the end, Acheng had no choice but to settle for Liwen, who was easier to fool.

Cuizhu secretly told Su Lanyin about this at the time, so she stopped the marriage.

Moreover, Su Lanyin knew that Liwen was very concerned about her reputation and did not want to hurt her self-esteem, so she would rather be the bad guy who broke up the couple.

Unexpectedly, her kindness was taken as an insult. She wholeheartedly protected Liwen, but in the end she became the sharp knife in Liu Ruyan's hand that stabbed her!

Liwen was so angry that she stiffened her neck and shouted, "Don't talk nonsense! Cuizhu, I already knew that you seduced Ah Cheng! Humph, to put it bluntly, you are just jealous of me!"

Cuizhu looked as if she had eaten a fly, rolled her eyes, and whispered, "It's really hopeless!"

Su Lanyin took a deep breath, erasing all the past affection between master and servant. Her heart was colder than ever before.

"Liwen, since you have left Suiyuexuan, you are no longer mine. From now on, who you marry and who you serve has nothing to do with me. If you have nothing else, you can go and answer."

Liwen snorted coldly, bowed unconvincedly, and then strode out of Langya Pavilion.

Cuizhu watched her figure disappear behind the courtyard gate and couldn't help but spit.

"Bah! Does she think Ah Cheng is some god? Am I jealous of her? It must be that bastard Ah Cheng who spread rumors about me. I can't stand this!"

She rolled up her sleeves and wanted to go find Ah Cheng to settle the score, but Su Lanyin stopped her.

"Don't waste your energy on worthless people and bad things."

"Girl, why aren't you angry? You treated that damn girl so well before, but she betrayed you!"

Cuizhu felt sorry for her girl.

"angry?"

Su Lanyin found it funny, and her eyes were full of coldness and indifference.

In her previous life, she was stuffed into a pig cage like her mother. The rough bamboo sticks cut her flesh, and blood flowed through the cracks into the cold river water. Circles of red ripples rippled in the water, like the red spider lily blooming in hell.

She struggled desperately and called for help hysterically, but eventually the sunlight disappeared inch by inch, and what greeted her was the cold river bottom and endless darkness.

At that moment, she was enveloped by great despair, and the hatred in her heart turned into resentment that even death could not erase.

Coming back to her senses, Su Lanyin gave a strange smile and said in a light tone: "Cuizhu, anger is the most useless emotion. All we have to do is watch from the sidelines."

Cui Zhu was puzzled: "Watching from the sidelines? Doesn't that mean doing nothing? No, I can't swallow this anger!"

Su Lanyin patted her childish face gently, her red lips slightly raised in a calm smile.

"You'll swallow it."

After saying that, she turned and went into the room.

Liwen is just a chess piece, and the person who manipulates the chess piece behind the scenes is her target of revenge!

……

Pearl Pavilion.

Su Lanxin had a thick bandage wrapped around her forehead. She had just woken up and was still very weak, with a pale face.

She looked around the room blankly and asked in confusion, "Excuse me, isn't this a modern play? Why did it change to an ancient costume scene? Is this a play within a play?"

Hongxiu, the maidservant who served her, showed a flash of surprise in her eyes, and then asked worriedly, "Fifth Miss, what are you talking about? I don't understand."

"Fifth Miss? A servant?"

Su Lanxin was stunned for a moment, then she felt a sharp pain in her head. She covered her head and groaned in pain.

"Ah... it hurts... my head hurts... it feels like a brain is growing..."

Wait! Some scattered memories flashed through her mind, but they couldn't be connected at all. They were so vague that it was difficult to wake up.

Liu Ruyan hurried in with the doctor, saying, "Doctor Zhang, please take a look at my daughter. What happened? She was in a coma for several days and just woke up, but she didn't recognize me!"

She had been accompanying Su Lanxin by the bed just now, so she hurried over as soon as she opened her eyes.

I thought my daughter would be fine once she woke up, but she turned out to be so confused that she didn't even recognize her own mother.

She thought to herself, could it be that he got hit and became stupid?

So he asked several questions in a row, but Su Lanxin couldn't answer any of them, so she was so scared that she quickly went to ask for the best doctor in Shengjing City.

Doctor Zhang sat in front of the bed and felt Su Lanxin's pulse. He frowned and then relaxed.

"Madam, your daughter is fine now, and the blood clots on her head have cleared up."

Liu Ruyan asked in confusion: "Then why doesn't she remember anything?"

Doctor Zhang stroked his beard and thought for a while, then said, "Maybe he was stimulated and had temporary amnesia, but he will definitely get better in the future, and it won't affect his health too much."

Hearing her say this, Liu Ruyan finally relaxed. She smiled with relief: "I was scared to death. I'm glad you're okay. Thank you, Doctor Zhang."

"Madam, you are welcome. I will prescribe some medicine for you. Just take it on time."

"Hongxiu, go and help the doctor write a prescription."

"Yes."

Hongxiu followed Doctor Zhang out of the dormitory and went to the front hall, leaving only Liu Ruyan and Su Lanxin in the room.

She hugged her daughter as if she had found her daughter again, and couldn't help but cry.

"Xin'er, you scared me to death."

Su Lanyin finally reacted this time, she had traveled through time!

Thinking of some time-travel novels that she had read in her spare time, she suddenly became extremely excited!

"I rely on!"

Su Lanxin pushed Liu Ruyan away and said to herself, "I have traveled through time! Doesn't that mean I have become the protagonist of this world?"
