Chapter 588 You Deserve It
Chapter 588 You Deserve It
Only then did Hua Rui realize that trust was the foundation of confidence.
She waited and longed for so many years, making excuses and compromising time and time again, making one mistake after another, but she could not salvage the deep sisterly bond.
It turns out that those childhood memories of relying on each other for survival were already her own memories.
The trust between the sisters had already been broken after they separated.
What an ironic twist of fate.
Lu Yangyang looked at Hua Rui and reached out to pull her up: "Now that you've come to Yuechuan Kingdom, you'll meet Xueyan sooner or later. Find the answer you're looking for yourself."
The flower stamen nodded gently, but no matter what, it didn't have the courage to look up at them.
Lu Yangyang pulled Sheng Yunjiao aside and introduced her to Wen Qingqing: "This is Jiaojiao, my younger sister."
Then he turned to Sheng Yunjiao and said, "Jiaojiao, this is Wen Qingqing. She is a good friend I met in Jiangnan, the niece of my master Wen Yu, and the legendary Little Fairy Doctor."
Sheng Yunjiao's eyes lit up, and she excitedly reached out her hand to Wen Qingqing: "Hello, my name is Sheng Yunjiao."
Wen Qingqing quickly grasped Sheng Yunjiao's hand: "It's our first time meeting, you can also call me sister."
Sheng Yunjiao's eyes widened.
Wen Qingqing said smugly, "Even your sister calls me 'sister'!"
Sheng Yunjiao blinked: "Then, Sister Qingqing?"
Wen Qingqing quickly reached into her pocket and grabbed a small bottle, intending to hand it to Sheng Yunjiao as a gift. However, she suddenly realized that all the bottles and jars Sheng Yunjiao carried were poisons, making this gift inappropriate.
Seeing her hand frozen in mid-air, Lu Yangyang scoffed mercilessly and took the small bottle from her hand: "I'll keep it for her!"
Wen Qingqing: "You're taking advantage of me again!"
Yin Yueling glared at Lu Yangyang unhappily: "You haven't introduced me yet!"
Lu Yangyang naturally couldn't leave her behind. "Jiaojiao, this is the Miao Holy Maiden, Yin Yueling, and that's Li Shisan, also from Miao. We were able to find her so easily thanks to Yueling along the way."
Upon hearing this, Sheng Yunjiao looked at the little girl who was a head shorter than her in surprise, took out a purse from her bosom, and poured out a handful of candy: "Thank you!"
Yin Yueling exclaimed in disbelief, "I'm not a child! You're giving me candy!"
Sheng Yunjiao: "Then, shall I take it back?"
Yin Yueling snatched all the candy away, saying, "How can you take back what was given to me? It's for me alone!"
They couldn't help but chuckle.
Now that they had finally arrived at a safe place, Lu Yangyang told them to hurry up and find rooms to rest. She then pulled Sheng Yunjiao to her room and asked impatiently, "Have you heard any news about Yan Yue?"
Sheng Yunjiao's face darkened, then she nodded: "I followed them through the dense forest. Although they were wary of me, they didn't have many people with them, and most of them died on the way while protecting them. So I occasionally heard that Yan Yue was lured into Huoyin Mountain and fell into their ambush, but... but Yan Yue escaped, and they couldn't find him."
"What?" Lu Yangyang looked at Sheng Yunjiao in surprise: "Is this news reliable?"
Sheng Yunjiao shook her head: "I can't be sure. Actually, when I first heard Yan Yue's name, I also suspected that Sheng Yunzhu arrested me to threaten Yan Yue. After all, only she knew that we were close, so it wouldn't be surprising if she did something like this. But she..."
At this point, Sheng Yunjiao sighed, "After you disfigured her, my second brother sent her to the Duke of Zheng's mansion. She got some Miao medicine from Xueyan, and although her face wasn't completely healed, it was mostly healed. The entire Duke of Zheng's family was rotten to the core; not a single one of them was normal. Aunt... Madam Sheng thought Sheng Yunzhu was a jinx. The medicine she gave her was useless, and she constantly beat and scolded her. Sheng Yunzhu thought it was because Madam Sheng was too stupid to mess things up. The two started fighting as soon as they entered the house. Sheng Yunzhu went all out and climbed into the bed of the Duke of Zheng's heir, openly challenging Madam Sheng. To get revenge, Madam Sheng did something even more disgusting and vile... Later, Sheng Yunzhu became pregnant, and several fathers suddenly appeared in the Duke of Zheng's mansion, which directly angered the old Duke to death. This matter also spread throughout the capital. My eldest uncle probably felt it was too shameful and said that the Sheng family had no such daughter, nor did they have such an aunt as Madam Sheng. He directly expelled them from the clan."
"In short, this whole affair was utterly unbelievable... After the old Duke died, the heir should have inherited the title, but the family started fighting over the inheritance, resulting in a huge brawl. Sheng Yunzhu, who was four or five months pregnant, miscarried, and her face was completely disfigured by Sheng Shi and her men. She then set a fire, burning Sheng Shi until she was partially paralyzed, dragged her out, and threw her outside the mansion for everyone to see. This incident escalated even further, and His Majesty, feeling deeply ashamed, directly ordered the stripping of the Duke of Zheng's title. Now, no one had to fight for it anymore. The entire mansion was in complete chaos, and Sheng Yunzhu probably took advantage of this moment to escape."
Sheng Yunjiao rubbed her arms: "I still get goosebumps when I think about what Sheng Yunzhu looked like. Her face was covered in messy scars, and she was completely insane. It was only after His Highness said that he could heal her face after we arrived in Yuechuan Kingdom that she could be quiet for a while. I've been avoiding her the whole way, afraid that she would suddenly go crazy and endanger my life."
Lu Yangyang never expected that after she left the capital, Sheng Yunzhu would... live such an outrageous life.
As for her affair with the Sheng family, one can only say that she deserved it.
Both of them were full of scheming, and in the end, they outsmarted themselves, which they deserved.
Lu Yangyang couldn't help but ask Sheng Yunjiao, "How did you know all this?"
Sheng Yunjiao blinked innocently: "Some of it I learned from correspondence with my former girlfriends in the capital, and some of it was told to me by Sheng Yunzhu herself when she went crazy. Anyway, it's all mixed up!"
"So, given Sheng Yunzhu's current state, although she might have told the Crown Prince that I have a good relationship with Yan Yue, I think her main purpose in kidnapping me was to lure you out, and it had little to do with Yan Yue." Sheng Yunzhu sighed, "I even tried to leave a message before I left, hoping that Yan Yue would come to rescue me, but I don't know where he is now, or how he is doing!"
Lu Yangyang also fell silent. "If Yan Yue really falls into His Highness's hands, it may not necessarily be a bad thing, but if he doesn't, it may not necessarily be a good thing either."
Mirror Lake is located at the junction of Huoyin Mountain and the dense forest, a place that is even more mysterious and unpredictable. Yan Yue disappeared in Huoyin Mountain, and Lu Yangyang couldn't help but worry about his safety.
