Chapter 359: The Truth
The boy stood stiffly, his fists clenched and loosened. He did not see Nalan Xianqiu turning around and leaving as he imagined, but just stood quietly in place and stared at Nalan Xianqiu.
"You said, I'm listening."
Nalan Xian pursed her lips, surprised Zi Ling's attitude, and secretly relieved, but was worried about how to say it. The drafts she had made in her belly seemed blurred like water in an instant, and she seemed a little incoherent.
"It's not what you heard, A Ling, that man, that man was deliberately provoking it. A Ling with ill intentions. Don't believe him..."
Zi Ling's hand, which was pinching the red rope in his hand, was getting stronger and stronger.
"What?" Zi Ling raised her lips and asked, squinting her eyes at the full moon in the sky. He smiled, "Xiao Chuan, I always think you are a very honest child. I still remember when we were young, you broke the cup that my aunt valued very much. At that time, you were so anxious that you were about to cry. Even if I insisted on helping you take the blame, you would still stand up and take responsibility yourself. What I admire most is your personality. You dare to act and take responsibility. Even if you are afraid, you don't want to implicate others."
"Stop talking!" She held the painful arm with one hand, and her nails were deeply trapped in the wound with bloodstains, but she didn't feel the pain at all.
Zi Ling was really as she said, stopping talking, but just standing quietly at her.
Nalan Xian closed her eyes in despair, and almost tried her best to bite her lips. It was not until the familiar smell of blood came from her mouth that she opened her eyes and seemed to be awake.
"Yes, what he said is indeed the truth. I threatened the doctor. It is the truth that fake pregnancy and miscarriage are the truth. It is also the truth that I slaughtered the entire orphanage, but there is a reason. Ah Ling...
Ah Ling, I was born in Jiuyou, which was a dark place. I don’t know who my parents are. I live less than a raised beast every day. The people there are terrible. They can mercilessly absorb spiritual power and eat without mercy. I admit that I am also a demon, but since I was able to escape from Jiuyou, I have decided to be a normal person. They will not let me go, don’t let us go, do you know?" Nalan Xian pursed her lips, and the wound that had just stopped the blood began to show blood again. Under the moonlight, her pale face formed a sharp contrast with her bright red lips.
"The reason why my aunt took us in was to send us on the road of blood sacrifice! I am a heretic, and Yi Xiaorou is also a heretic. Why do she have to be superior to us and we have to sacrifice our lives for her easily? Actually, I don't blame Yi Xiaorou, really! A Ling. I know she doesn't know anything, so I just killed my aunt at that time, and she is the source of all sins! But I didn't expect those children to appear suddenly. They misunderstand me and wanted to arrest me. I was just doing self-defense! I didn't think about taking their lives at that time!"
It sounds like it is very clear that private and private, but Zi Ling just feels unreasonable anger. He is not a saint. After learning that such a thing, he cannot be without feeling it. However, he closed his eyes, and the blue veins on his forehead kept thrusting. He clenched his fists and wanted to smash Nalan Xianqian's twisted face. When the palm of his palm crossed Nalan Xianqian's cheek and she was ready to close her eyes, she realized that it was just a fist wind passing by.
Nalan Xian looked at the surprisingly angry man in front of him. The sound of something big behind him collapsed was deafening. She stared at her big eyes and blinked a little slow.
"Damn it." She heard the low curse mixed with anger in the man who covered her whole body, followed by his heavy breathing.
He was not completely indifferent to what happened back then, but he felt like he was like a clown who should not defend himself. However, he was cautiously guilty for nearly ten years and finally became his pillow.
Thinking of the little things she did to Yi Xiaorou, and the meaningful eyes she looked at herself every time, she was always calm like something. In fact, it was disdain and sympathy.
Seeing the childish revenge she had made against her, a nearly sneering duel, Zi Ling thought about it, wasn’t that a kind of indifference? Because she no longer had any concern for her and her attitude after becoming a stranger.
Even if Nalan Xianqiu deliberately let her take the blame, she had never explained anything. Now, thinking about it, how can it be ridiculous? He has been waiting for Yi Xiaorou's explanation, but in the end it turned out that he was no longer important to Yi Xiaorou, so there was no need to explain, right?
"As soon as this kind of thing is thrown away, the better." Zi Ling pinched the red rope tightly in his palm, and shook it into powder with his spiritual power under Nalan Xian's terrified gaze.
"A Ling, you..."
"Nalan Xianqian, I am really stupid. I have been kept in the dark for so many years by you. Even if others say bad things to you, I don't believe it." He raised his hand and scattered the red powder on the ground, staring at Nalan Xianqian's eyes almost as if they were eating people.
"Tell me, how many evils have you committed for me in so many years when I didn't know!"
Nalan Xianqian felt scared for the first time, and could not believe that this man with evil spirit was Zi Ling who had been careful with her for so many years as if she was protecting treasures. Her body trembled uncontrollably, and even her voice became depressed. She shook her head vigorously, "No, A Ling... Listen to me, that child, it was an accident..."
Zi Ling narrowed her eyes and pinched Nalan's chin and forced her to look up at herself, "I used to think you are innocent, but your cunning is deeper than me. I'm afraid this whole palace is your world. You can control the special imperial doctor in the palace, and no one dares to say a word in the entire palace. If the aunt is still the children in the orphanage are a joint accident, then what about Fu'er? What about my child who was killed by you before he went out?"
"I……"
"Do you dare say you haven't done it?" He remembered the maids who had always been laughing and making jokes and became cautious. He even mentioned Fu'er's existence to himself in a vague way when Nalan Xianke was away. He believed Nalan Xianke's words and did not take it seriously. So he did not take it seriously after the royal family's blood change. As long as Nalan Xianke was happy, it was fine, but under the surface of not taking it seriously, there were so many people's innocent lives sacrificed!
