After her transformation and rebirth, she manipulates the innocent and ruthless to overthrow the wor

"Wait until I return to Madam's side..." Before she could finish speaking, Xiao Ran coldly interrupted her.

"Do you think you can go back to your aunt's side?" Xiao Ran's gaze was like a knife, piercing straight at Yin Xing. "Have you been foolish for so long that you've even forgotten why you became like this?"

These words were like a bucket of ice water, chilling Ginkgo to the bone. Her heart sank to the bottom, her eyes filled with astonishment and panic. She couldn't understand why Xiao Ran knew the whole story but pretended to know nothing... Was he testing her?

Yes, it must be a test! But she just lied, wouldn't that be walking right into a trap?

Thinking of this, Yinxing disregarded everything else, lunged forward, grabbed Xiao Ran's skirt tightly, and pleaded in a trembling voice:

"Miss! I know I was wrong. I shouldn't have lied to you! The second young lady stole the hangover tea. She's the one who hurt me! I was just confused for a moment. Please forgive me this time!"

Her voice was choked with sobs, and her eyes were filled with fear and regret, as if she were grasping at the last straw.

"Today is New Year's Eve. You took advantage of the fact that the labor camp was unguarded and secretly slipped out, but you did not expect to suddenly have a mental breakdown and just happened to run into Xia He and me."

“At that time, you were not in your right mind. You smelled the incense from Madam He’s room on Xia He’s body and saw He Wan’s hairpin on my head. You then mistakenly thought that Xia He was Madam He and that I was the Second Miss.”

"And that's how the farce that happened while picking flowers came about." Xiao Ran's tone was calm, but every word was like a needle, piercing straight to Yin Xing's heart.

“Once you regain consciousness, you’ll find out that it was the eldest daughter of the Xiao family who saved you. In that case, all you need to do is take the opportunity to pester me and say some nice things to me. Maybe I’ll soften my heart and help you return to Aunt He’s side.”

Yinxing was shocked, and her face turned as pale as paper.

She had originally thought that by feigning madness and taking advantage of Xiao Ran's kindness, she could return to Aunt He's side and even use this opportunity to turn her life around. But now, Xiao Ran had seen through her schemes, and all her calculations had become a joke.

"Ridiculous." Xiao Ran's tone was indifferent, yet with these calm words she uttered a decision that Yin Xing would regret for the rest of her life.

"But you don't know that your madness is incurable and will lead to death."

She leaned down slightly, her gaze icy, and pulled Ginkgo's hand away.

"...Will I die?"

Yinxing was stunned; the two words seemed to be squeezed out of her throat. Her voice was so weak that it was almost inaudible, and she collapsed to the ground as if all her strength had been drained away.

"I've done so much for you... and you want me to die?"

She never imagined that after committing so many heinous acts for Madam He, she would gain her trust, or at least have a peaceful life. But she ended up like this; Madam He wouldn't even give her a way out.

She had followed Madam He since childhood, serving her wholeheartedly and even doing dirty things for her. But in the end, as long as she touched that hidden secret, she could be discarded without any mercy.

She had once thought that there was at least a shred of mistress-servant affection between her and Madam He, and she even fantasized that one day she could return to Madam He's side and regain her trust. But now it seemed that it was nothing but wishful thinking, even the one who saved her at the end…

It turned out that she had also harmed someone before.

Yinxing lowered her head, tears silently streaming down her face, but then suddenly burst into laughter, a laugh filled with sorrow and heartbreak.

She suddenly remembered the day He Shi married into the general's mansion. He Shi took her hand as they got off the wedding car, and how innocent and naive she looked at that time.

Ridiculous, really ridiculous!
