Chapter 373 Petty and narrow-minded, it's all because of love.
Ning Yao clenched her fists; she had a vague sense of foreboding.
"He really loves your mother, which is why he personally gave her such a precious item as the White Flame Blood Jade."
"He told me before that he liked me and that his engagement to me wasn't entirely because of his family. I remember him saying that!"
"But he betrayed me, and he couldn't protect your mother either..."
"He can't even protect himself; he's a complete and utter piece of trash!"
An Qiulu's eyes suddenly turned blood red, because she was extremely angry, and her chest heaved violently with heavy breathing.
Ning Yao stared intently into An Qiulu's eyes, slowly raised her hand, and pointed at the cowardly man cowering on the ground.
"He's not the real Si Long Shen, so Si Long Shen is that slovenly, long-haired prisoner in jail?"
If this irresponsible, weak, and incompetent man were her biological father, she would rather have been born from a rock.
"Yes, I can tell you clearly that your father was tricked by me back then. I disfigured him, poisoned him to make him mute, threw him into prison, and tormented him for more than twenty years. All I wanted to know was the whereabouts of Bai Yan Xue Fei, but he just wouldn't tell me."
“Over the years, your father has been thinking about Luo Xiyun every moment. At first, he didn’t know you existed, and I didn’t even know you existed. Later, when we found out, I told him myself.” An Qiulu narrowed her eyes, her gaze gradually becoming unfocused.
When she couldn't win his heart, she had no choice but to settle for something else: treasure.
“Si Longshen was tortured by me so much that he wanted to end his life several times, but I wouldn’t let him die and kept finding doctors to keep him alive.”
"Then I threatened him with your and your mother's lives. Sure enough, he fell for that. Whenever Luo Xiyun or your daughter was mentioned, I would say I was going to have you and your mother killed..."
“Si Longshen was terrified and immediately knelt down to beg me, kowtowing until his forehead was bleeding. He said he could tell me the whereabouts of Baiyan Xuefei, but he asked me to spare your lives, mother and daughter.”
"Of course I agreed. What do his, your, and your mother's worthless lives mean to me? All I want is the White Flame Blood Jade. Once I have the White Flame Blood Jade, nothing else matters. What about Si Long Shen, what about Si Men..."
"But Luo Xiyun is a tough nut to crack. No matter how you try to get information from her or even try to suppress her, she won't tell the truth. She's not afraid of death either, and she never says where she hid the White Flame Blood Jade."
An Qiulu recalled her helplessness back then, but she couldn't take Luo Xiyun's life, so she arranged for Ning Fengtai to approach and pursue her.
She thought that a woman like Luo Xiyun would inevitably lose herself once she fell in love.
An Qiulu wanted Luo Xiyun to lose herself, to be completely lost in love, and to fall in love with someone else. Then, she would either discard everything that the previous man had given her, or treat it as a treasure and offer it to her lover.
Ning Fengtai managed to marry Luo Xiyun, but he couldn't win her heart.
Luo Xiyun was only moved by Ning Fengtai. She was moved that he took care of her wholeheartedly, even though she had another man in her heart, and that he took care of a daughter with whom he had no blood relation. She was also moved that even after marrying her, he hardly ever touched her and respected her choices.
Based on Luo Xiyun's assumptions, Ning Fengtai felt that Luo Xiyun should feel guilty for loving him to such an extent.
But guilt prevented her from giving up the only thing her beloved man had given her, especially since it was something Si Longshen cherished dearly.
Ning Yao's face was clouded with gloom. She dug her palms with her fingernails until they bled, and the blood dripped onto the ground.
It's all because of this woman in front of us. She caused all this tragedy. If it weren't for her, her father and mother could have lived a peaceful and happy life together. The three of them would have been very, very happy.
No, it doesn't necessarily have to be just the three of them. If her parents are loving and affectionate, she might have a few more younger sisters or brothers.
Noticing Ning Yao's tense shoulders and the murderous aura emanating from her, An Qiulu was not afraid at all; instead, she smiled.
"You must be very angry, right?"
"You have a man now, and you've tasted love, so you can understand how I feel!"
"Imagine if one day, the person you love tells you that he has fallen in love with someone else, that his feelings for you before weren't fake, but simply because he hadn't met someone he loved more, and now that he has, he wants to abandon you, begging for your forgiveness, begging you to let go..."
"He felt that this was just a simple way of distancing himself from her, just to explain things to me, just a matter of a few words, and then he would make some compensation and that would be the end of it. He thought he could then spend his life with the woman he loved..."
"Is it really that easy to abandon someone? Don't I have a heart?"
"Tell me, if it were you, how would you feel? Wouldn't you hate it?" An Qiulu's eyes suddenly turned sad, with a hint of grievance and anger.
Ning Yao suddenly stepped forward, her movements so fast they were startling.
She raised her hand and grabbed An Qiulu's chin, her fingertips applying extra force, almost crushing An Qiulu's chin.
She forced An Qiulu to look at her; those beautiful, gentle eyes were now like sharp swords, filled with a chilling sharpness and a fierce aura.
"Feelings are free. If Wen Tingye meets someone he loves more, as long as he makes a choice, I will choose to let go instead of clinging on or seeking revenge. My life is not just about love, nor is it just about him."
"My happiness will not be built on the suffering of others." Ning Yao's voice was so cold that it sent chills down one's spine.
The mercenaries rarely saw such an imposing woman, and they all unconsciously looked at Ning Yao, their eyes filled with shock.
Aren't women all about love above all else?
Is it really possible to find a woman who is so open-minded and not petty?
The mercenaries nearby, who all had families, almost simultaneously had the same thought, finding it unbelievable.
The mercenaries glanced at Ning Yao, then turned their gaze to their silent commander, Wen Tingye.
Even on the battlefield, they rarely saw Wen Tingye with such an expression on his face, like the ancient ice of the North and South Poles.
At this moment, Wen Tingye exuded an extremely cold aura, no less than that of the Commander's wife, Ning Yao.
Clearly, Wen Tingye was angry because of what Miss Ning Yao had just said.
Sure enough, almost all the mercenaries with families had heard their wives nagging them, and the complaints were all pretty much the same.
"I'm petty and calculating, I can't stand you being nice to other women, I can't let you go, and I even want to die with you, all because I love you. If I didn't love you, you could mess around with whoever you wanted!"
From this, it seems that Miss Ning Yao doesn't care much about their commander...
"Ning, Yao." Wen Tingye practically squeezed out the two words through gritted teeth.
The man's jaw muscles twitched, and his hawk-like eyes carried a chilling aura that could freeze a person alive.
