Chapter 167

Sui Yan couldn't help but become arrogant again. She clung to Liu Hua's arm and whined with a nasal tone, "Mommy is the best."

Xu Mo felt neglected by his sister. He deliberately huffed, "Not crying anymore?"

Liu Hua angrily slapped her son again. "Don't change the subject!"

Xu Mo: "......" Wah wah wah!

Sui Yan curved her lips slightly. "Uncle Xu, do we still have time to see Lu Yunling?"

Xu Yi started the car. "Yes, Yan can take a nap first."

Sui Yan obediently leaned against Liu Hua, occasionally glancing out the window with a slightly absent-minded look.

Liu Hua stroked her daughter's hair, her gaze becoming increasingly gentle.

She was still quite worried about her daughter, after all, until now she still didn't know exactly what had happened.

But... let's wait a little longer, give her baby a bit more time.

By the time they reached the prison entrance, night had completely fallen.

Sui Yan and Liu Hua followed the prison guard toward the visiting room, except Liu Hua only waited outside for her daughter to come out.

Over the years, Lu Yunling hadn't fared well. A righteous young girl, only twenty-three or twenty-four years old, but she looked like a woman in her forties.

Her gaze was vacant as she mechanically wiped the floor with a rag.

A female prisoner nearby kicked her. "Hurry up! The inspection is coming soon!"

Lu Yunling instinctively shuddered and immediately quickened her movements. "Yes..."

But as soon as she sped up, her breathing became more and more rapid.

She bit her lip hard, her eyes filled with despair and a hint of resentment.

"Lu Yunling, come out!" The prison guard banged on the iron door with his baton, shouting impatiently.

The female prisoner snatched the rag from Lu Yunling's hand and pretended to wipe the floor. She smiled ingratiatingly at the guard. "Brother Zhao, someone has come to visit her in prison."

The prison guard seemed not to notice that Lu Yunling had been the one wiping earlier. He glanced at the woman. "Why do you care so much?"

Lu Yunling didn't dare resist. She lowered her head and followed the guard out slowly.

It was the same room, with the same person on the other side.

Those things Lu Yunling had never forgotten surfaced in her mind again. She gritted her teeth and muttered, "Sui Yan..."

Originally with her back turned, Sui Yan seemed to sense something and turned to look over, the beautiful eyes so familiar to Lu Yunling filled with indifference.

This gaze always made Lu Yunling feel like she was just trash in Sui Yan's eyes.

The two stared at each other for a moment, but eventually it was Lu Yunling who couldn't take it anymore. She rushed forward a few steps, grabbed the phone, and shouted, "Sui Yan! You deserve to die a horrible death!"

Sui Yan remained completely unaffected by her words. "I have actually died an unpleasant death once before."

Lu Yunling gritted her teeth. "You deserved it."

Sui Yan smiled faintly. "Yes, I did deserve it. But luckily Heaven gave me another chance to start over, don't you think?"

Lu Yunling clenched her teeth, the red veins in her eyes becoming more prominent. "You...remember everything?"

Sui Yan lowered her eyelids. "A bit late, but it doesn't matter. I came to ask you... how would you like to die?"

She was still smiling faintly, as if nothing in this world could capture her attention.

This was when Lu Yunling broke down. "What gives you the right! What gives you the right to have so much? What makes you better than me everywhere?"

Sui Yan looked at Lu Yunling, but suddenly seemed a little confused for a moment.

She had originally thought that if Lu Yunling died, she would be a little happier. But why, even though Lu Yunling was now worse than dead, did she not feel happy at all?

Sui Yan sat quietly in the chair, lost in thought.

While Lu Yunling across from her kept shrieking, continuously making noise.

After who knows how long, there were two knocks on Sui Yan's side of the door, and Liu Hua entered, giving a glance. "Yan, are you done? Are you hungry? Mommy ordered takeout, and you can eat it as soon as we get home."

Sui Yan smiled and stood up to leave. "Mom, I'm done. Let's go home."

She had only taken a couple of steps when Lu Yunling's resentful voice faintly came through the phone. "Sui Yan, I curse you to never have a good death in this life."

Sui Yan's steps faltered for a moment, but she didn't look back as she said, "Thank you, but that curse will come true for you first."

She walked up to Liu Hua and smiled, linking arms with her. "Mom, let's go home."

Sui Yan felt a bit apprehensive, unsure if Liu Hua had heard what Lu Yunling said.

But Liu Hua didn't seem out of the ordinary, patting Sui Yan's head as usual. "Okay, let's go home."

On the way home, Sui Yan looked exhausted, closing her eyes and slowly falling asleep.

Xu Mo took out a small blanket and covered his sister. Liu Hua watched this warm scene, but her mind kept pondering the words she had just heard.

"Sui Yan, I curse you to never have a good death in this life."

She could confirm she hadn't misheard - her daughter's cautious reaction was the best proof.

But what did that sentence mean?

Liu Hua closed her eyes wearily, but in that instant, an image inexplicably appeared in her mind.

Her precious daughter, whom she had carefully nurtured in the palm of her hand, standing dazed in the middle of the road, while not far away, a huge truck headed straight toward Sui Yan.

Just as the truck was about to hit Sui Yan, Liu Hua opened her eyes in horror.

She breathed heavily, beads of cold sweat forming on her forehead.

Xu Yi noticed Liu Hua's abnormality and lowered his voice. "Xiao Hua, what's wrong?"

Liu Hua tried to stay calm. "Nothing, I just had a nightmare."

Although she said that, Liu Hua was clearer than anyone that the scene she had just witnessed was definitely not a dream or illusion.

It was something that had really happened!

Except... that must have been when Yan was fourteen, right? At that time, the car clearly didn't hit Yan...

So why...

Liu Hua glanced out the car window, and a thought suddenly flashed through her mind.

"...in this life..."

She remembered Lu Yunling had said that.

This life?

Still...?

Liu Hua's slender fingers slowly tightened, she vaguely felt that she had noticed something.

Tizi still shrank in the passenger seat, it sensitively felt something, glancing back at Liu Hua without a sound.

Indeed...

Liu Hua was only flustered for a brief moment before quickly calming down, she closed her eyes again just like before...
