Chapter 28
Shu mei's plead
"Oh? Meimei knew about these things?" asked Qin Ran surprised. She could not remember anyone talking about these matters earlier in the East Warm Pavillion with Lian Jin Rong.
She used to be so stupid! How could she not realise that she was used? The kid in front of her clearly knew she was a fool that could be utilised.
An Yan Ran face slightly changed a flash of surprise in her eyes that Qin Ran noticed. It seems that the little flower was not as flawless and indestructible as she thought. It was her that considered her enemy for a grandmaster!
Realising this she smiled.
An Yan Ran thought for a moment before she answered:
"Jie, please, please talk about it with mother. Yiniang was beaten with twenty plank strikes! Her injuries are very serious. She is a strong person, but I know that she regrets her past negligence. She keeps on blaming herself. If she is kept in her courtyard for three months, I am afraid of what she will do… Jiejie, think how good yiniang is to us! She is always taking care of us … Can you really bear to see her suffer like this?"
An Qing Ran acknowledged that if she had heard this in her past life; she would have succumbed to her meimei's plead and talked to her mother. Imploring for her yiniang to be realised from her punishment. But she wasn't the same as before! She could see clearly now.
She stayed very calm as if she was following a play.
"So, you are asking me to go and beg father and mother for leniency? Is that it?". An Qing Ran asked faintly.
"Yes! Yiniang just had a moment of neglect and didn't do these things purposely. I know that jiejie is a nice person…"
"I know!" interrupted Qing Ran while looking at Yan Ran's beautiful face. The hatred in her heart could fill the ocean. It was evident that she had been a kind person. But, her generosity was used by other. Worst even she was utilised by people she loved!
This was the reason why in this lifetime. The seemingly harmless little girl would have to repay her! Not only An Yan Ran would have to pay for all the wrong she had done in her past life. She had to return everything she had stolen from her! An Qing Ran tried to control her expression. She didn't want her real feelings to be revealed now.
"Jiejie are you going to plead?"
"Of course … you are my good meimei! How can I bear to see you so sad?" Answer Qing Ran a charming smile blooming on her face. Once she agreed with her request, An Yan Ran turned while she said:
"Jiejie, it's late now. I shouldn’t bother you any longer and let you go to sleep."
"Good" An Qing Ran nodded.
An Yan Ran suddenly stood up but, she was hesitant to leave. An Qing Ran's expression was a bit strange, so she smiled:
"Jie must be tired, I will visit again tomorrow".
Qing Ran nodded again and, An Yan Ran finally left.
Closing the door behind her, she looked at her hands slightly shaking. She had taught that she was prepared. But, she didn't think that she wouldn’t be able to repress her emotions! She had to calm down. To do so Qing Ran took deep breaths.
When she turned around she faced Ren Dong curiously looking at her:
"Miss, you are a little different today…"
"Of course I am different! Don't you know what happened today during our family reunion?" An Qing Ran lost control of her emotions once again. Ren Dong on the other side didn't understand what was happening.
Thinking about it for a while, she realised that, after the incident, the second lady's power over the Fu was handed to the lady!"
Outside, An Yan Ran turned around and looked at An Qing Ran courtyard. A ruthless light filled her eyes, revealing a temperament and maturity that didn't match her age.
Clenching her fist she walked away, her deerskin boots making an eerie sound in the snow. Exposing her real feelings.
An Yan Ran walked towards Lan Xio pavilion, the place where her mother was now confined.
In front of other, she could only call her yiniang. But she had to call the woman living in East Warm pavilion mother!
