Chapter 346: She Didn’t Feel Guilty (Part 1)

Translator: Henyee Translations  Editor: Henyee Translations

If Liu Yinniang did not take the initiative to face her, she would not bother to talk to her as well.

From the beginning to the end, what she saw had never changed. In her dreams, she saw Liu Sanniang walk into the darkness.

Could she come out of the darkness?

She also hoped that Liu Yinniang could, but now that she saw her again, she knew that this was Liu Yinniang’s fate that was set in stone and couldn’t be altered.

Therefore, she would not feel guilty nor feel bad about it.

She only saved those who could be saved.

Chu Yan started a fire, and Liu Sanniang went to make noodles. Tonight, they had fish noodles for dinner.

The few evil seeds related to Wu Yu were still in the capital. Those that were very small and insignificant would slowly disappear as Wu Yu died, but those that defied the laws of nature needed her to interfere and correct them.

Liu Sanniang did not take Liu Yinniang’s sudden appearance to heart.

Liu Yinniang ran for a long time before stopping. She looked back at the empty alley behind her and felt a sense of loss. Was she not important to Liu Sanniang at all?

Or did she not recognize her?

Liu Yinniang felt terrible. Her legs felt like they were shackled. She walked numbly and could not help but think that if Liu Zhi’er or the others were the ones in trouble, Liu Sanniang would definitely help them. She had the ability to do so, right?

But why didn’t Liu Sanniang care about her? She could have saved her.

Liu Yinniang was too weak to walk. She leaned against the corner of the wall and slowly dropped to the ground. She could not suppress the pain in her heart and started sobbing softly.

“Did Liu Sanniang chase you away?”

Liu Shun walked up to Liu Yinniang and asked calmly.

Hearing this demon-like voice, Liu Yinniang was shocked. She looked up at Liu Shun timidly. He smiled gently and got down to help her stand up. “Let’s go home. We can talk about it slowly at home.”

Liu Shun gently hugged Liu Yinniang’s waist as if he would never hurt her.

Liu Yinniang’s body stiffened. Liu Shun pinched her waist. “Relax. As long as you help me with one thing, I won’t treat you like that again.”

Tears streamed down Liu Yinniang’s face. “What is it?”

Liu Shun smiled. “It’s very simple.”

As long as Liu Sanniang died, he wouldn’t feel threatened. As for Liu Yinniang, she was just a pitiful wretch. He did not take her seriously. She was already his puppet.

When Liu Yinniang saw Liu Shun’s smile, she couldn’t help but tremble. Sensing her fear, Liu Shun’s smile was even broader.

When he returned to the mansion, the servant reported, “Master, Madam’s brothers are here. They said that they have something to tell you. They’re waiting for you in the front hall.”

Liu Yinniang quickly wiped her eyes. She couldn’t let her brothers notice that she had just cried.

The servant lowered his head to intentionally avoid looking at Liu Yinniang.

Liu Shun looked at Liu Yinniang and said softly, “Let’s go and see what’s up with your brothers.”

When he entered the capital, he brought Liu Yinniang’s family with him. Liu Yinniang’s two older brothers and one younger brother were also given good jobs. However, after their horizons were broadened, their ambitions also grew bigger. Liu Shun was the Crown Prince’s trusted aide and was valued by him. This was something he didn’t hide from Liu Yinniang’s family.

Therefore, under his protection, Liu Yinniang’s family lived a good life. Although they did not live together, he was the one who bought them houses.

This was the reason why Liu Yinniang never dared to disobey him.

Liu Shun held Liu Yinniang and walked in. He lowered his voice and said, “Yinniang, have you ever thought that if Liu Sanniang didn’t reject me back then, she would be the one suffering in your place? Chu Yan is just a blacksmith. Without me, you would be able to get engaged to him. In that case, you would be the one being treated gently now.”

Liu Yinniang trembled slightly, feeling extremely sad.

That’s right. If Liu Sanniang did not refuse, she would not have to suffer.

Liu Shun smiled. “When you went to look for Liu Sanniang today, she should have been able to recognize you, but she chose to ignore you. She’s really heartless. She doesn’t feel any guilt at all. Yinniang, Yinniang… everything you’re suffering now is done in Liu Sanniang’s place. I originally liked her, but she rejected me. I had no choice but to choose you. Don’t you think you’re unlucky because of her?”

Liu Yinniang was about to break down. Liu Shun hugged her waist tightly. “Let’s go and see what your brothers are up to.”

In the main hall.

Liu Dashan, Liu Zhongshan, and Liu Xiaoshan sat there. They were all wearing good clothes and drinking tea. But their expressions were not very good.

When they heard footsteps, they stood up and saw Liu Shun walking in. Liu Dashan and Liu Zhongshan went up to him and grabbed him from both sides. “Shun, you’re finally back.”

Liu Xiaoshan could only lean against Liu Dashan and say angrily, “Brother Shun.”

Liu Yinniang walked silently behind Liu Shun. She looked at her siblings who had completely changed and felt terrible. If she proposed to go back to their hometown, they would be the first to disagree.

She was constantly in mental and physical agony. Every time she was abused, she was afraid that she would die on the spot. She didn’t want to live in luxury anymore, but at this point, it wasn’t up to her to choose.

Her First Brother, Second Brother, and Fourth Brother were telling Liu Shun about the trouble they had encountered and wanted Liu Shun to help them. Liu Yinniang felt terrible and couldn’t help but think.

If the person who married Liu Shun was Liu Sanniang, would she be in as much pain as she was now? Would Liu Sanniang’s two older brothers also get corrupted by the money and fame in the capital?

Liu Yinniang sat on the side in a daze.

She recalled Chu Yan’s eyes which were looking at Liu Sanniang with gentleness and undiluted love. Why didn’t she fall in love with Chu Yan back then? If Liu Sanniang married Liu Shun, wouldn’t he belong to her?
