The Valued Lady is Truly Dominant

Song Zhiqing’s understanding was completely overturned. When he followed the boss to this room, he still didn’t understand what was going on until he heard the familiar voice coming through the small hole in the wall, and he was stunned.

He didn’t understand how the person he had personally watched being interred in the coffin could be speaking on the other side of the wall.

Resurrection from the dead? A haunting?

Neither, it turned out that person hadn’t died at all.

If she wasn’t dead, then who was he keeping vigil for last night? For whom had he shed those few crocodile tears?

When Song Zhiqing first heard Bai Shuilian’s voice, his subconscious told him it was best to leave immediately. Otherwise, what he was about to hear would make him angrier and more ashamed than seeing Bai Shuilian alive.

Sure enough, what exactly did he hear?

Bai Shuilian really was a spy from the remnants of the Xia clan. That could be overlooked, but she wasn’t even a clean and innocent person, having had a child with someone else. Yet, when she was with him, it was clear that...

Hearing her talk about the details of that remnant’s body, coupled with certain images, his stomach churned even more.

Song Zhiqing turned his head and dry-heaved a few times; he was utterly disgusted.

The words inside hinted that Song Zhiqing was a big fool, gleefully wearing worn-out shoes. To think he assumed she was as pure and untouchable as a white lotus.

Spit, what white lotus? This was clearly a rotten black-hearted lotus.

”I told you long ago to open your eyes and see clearly the people around you, but you ignored me. How about now?” Song Zhiyuan pointed at the small hole, curling his lips, ”Surprised? Are you pleasantly surprised?”

Song Zhiqing: ”...”

Damn it, Song Zhiyuan, you devil exuding black aura, you did this on purpose.

”I...”

Song Zhiyuan hushed him, ”Listen.”

Song Zhiqing’s body stiffened as he listened to the words from inside.

”Can I, can I still return to the Song Family?” Bai Shuilian’s voice was filled with excitement.

Scar looked down at her disdainfully, ”How do you think you can explain that you didn’t die?”

”Explain? Naturally, by saying it was Mother Quan who betrayed me to escape. I knew nothing,” Bai Shuilian replied without hesitation, contemplating the possibility of returning to the Song Family.

Scar sneered, ”You refuse to admit you’re naive. You’re just a pawn. If you return to the Song Family, do you think your lover won’t know? Having killed you once, can’t they kill you twice? And how do you think the Song Family hasn’t discovered your tricks?”

Bai Shuilian’s face turned pale, and her body began to tremble.

She might have the ability to deceive Song Zhiqing, but could she deceive that person? Their methods were unparalleled—how could they not handle a little weak woman?

She crawled forward, pleading, ”Sir, Master, please show me a way to live. I am willing to live incognito in some far-off place.”

”And what about Song Family’s third son and the pair of children?”

Bai Shuilian smiled bitterly and disdainfully, ”What if I’m unwilling to part with them? Can he protect me? If he were strong, would I have chosen the Xia clan member? The Xia clan member at least dangled a concubine title in front of me. What did Song Qi give me? He didn’t even dare fight for me, let alone promise me the position of official wife. He’s a spineless man, soft-eared and weak-willed, incapable of achieving great things. Counting on him? I’d be better off relying on myself, at least I can survive.”

With her abilities, if she really left, she could still find refuge in a flower shop or a brothel, and if she met a good man, she could redeem herself and live a brilliant life.

But if she stayed by Song Zhiqing’s side, not only would he fail to protect her, if that person came looking, he might just push her out directly.
