When enemies et, envy flares. Seeing the person who caused her demise, Bai Lan's mind was consud by a single thought: to end her.
In the blink of an eye, she floated before Mrs. Luo. Yet, as her hand was about to touch her neck again, her body suddenly stiffened, and she turned sharply.
There, she saw Zhouzhou's sword resting on the umbilical cord connecting to the infant spirit.
With a gentle swing, the only link between them could be severed. Even in her blinded rage, Bai Lan instinctively sensed the danger.
Zhouzhou gazed at her, furrowing her brow earnestly. "Auntie, if you don't cease, I will act."
Realizing the dire consequences if she persisted, Bai Lan's bloodshot eyes gradually receded as she fixed her gaze on the infant spirit, the hatred within her gradually waning.
However, just as Zhouzhou breathed a sigh of relief, Bai Lan abruptly embraced the Infant Spirit and swiftly flew towards Mrs. Luo, piercing through her in a calculated move, leaving a trace of malevolence within her.
Instantly, Mrs. Luo coughed up blood, her complexion turning pale.
Zhouzhou hurriedly rushed over, stuffing dicine into Mrs. Luo's mouth and tossing a talisman at Bai Lan to stabilize her shaken soul.
Fuming, Zhouzhou stamped her foot. "Auntie, don't you realize you'll forfeit your chance at reincarnation like this?"
Bai Lan bitterly smiled. "What's the point of reincarnating if it won't avenge my daughter?"
Her eyes brimming with resentnt.
Zhouzhou glanced at the small infant spirit in her arms, unable to utter another word. With a sigh, she flicked a talisman towards Bai Lan.
Feeling a trendous force, Bai Lan was forcefully ejected from Deng ii's body, causing her to collapse.
Zhouzhou hurriedly jumped over and caught her, then waved at Qin Xu, "Second Uncle, co quickly and help."
Qin Xu snapped out of his daze and quickly stepped forward to help place Deng ii on the bed. Zhouzhou followed, carefully checking her pulse with her chubby little hand. She then placed a talisman in her palm and, after confirming there was nothing seriously wrong, she felt relieved and turned her attention to Bai Lan.
At this mont, Bai Lan was tightly holding the infant spirit, her mind fully recovered. Looking at Deng ii lying there, she seed at a loss.
"I'm sorry. I didn't an to hurt her. I was just too angry at the ti, and I lost control..." Bai Lan said, her voice trembling. She had co to warn Deng ii not to marry Luo Jinhui, knowing his family was no good. But when she saw Luo Jinhui, her anger took over, and she couldn't control herself after that. Especially upon seeing Luo's mother, her fury reached its peak.
As a spirit, Bai Lan was easily swayed by emotions like anger and resentnt. Understanding this, Zhouzhou shook her head sympathetically and said, "It's okay."
Luckily, no harm was done; otherwise, the situation would have been much harder to resolve.
Seeing that Bai Lan had cald down, Zhouzhou dragged a few chairs over for Qin Lie and Qin Xu to sit on. Then, she quickly climbed into Qin Lie's lap, took out a handful of sunflower seeds from her bag, and placed Qin Lie's open hand beside her to use as a plate. Swinging her short legs and cracking seeds, she asked, "Auntie, do you know them?"
Jinbao, who had also jumped into Zhouzhou's lap, was staring intently at Bai Lan, occasionally licking its lips.
So hungry.
Bai Lan was frightened by Jinbao's gaze and instinctively shrank back. Zhouzhou gently tapped Jinbao on the head with her chubby paw, "No, you can't."
Hearing this, Jinbao looked displeased but then redirected its gaze to Luo's father, mother, and Luo Jinhui, becoming instantly excited again.
It's okay, I can't eat her, but I can eat these three.
They wouldn't have to wait long. These three reeked of bloodshed, clearly having committed many misdeeds. To Jinbao, they were a great delicacy.
Luo's father, who had fainted earlier, slowly woke up, only to et Jinbao's predatory gaze. Terrified, he imdiately fainted again.
Seeing this, Bai Lan felt sowhat reassured but still instinctively moved a bit further away from Jinbao. She nodded and said, "Yes, I know them." Her tone was filled with hatred.
Bai Lan took a deep breath, beginning her tale.
The Taoist imdiately covered his ears, recalling the scene in the alley and unable to bear listening yet curious nonetheless.
Bai Lan's voice echoed slowly. "Two years ago, I t Luo Jinhui at a gathering. After pursuing for half a year, I accepted him, believing his sincerity. We beca lovers, and when I got pregnant, I thought it was ti to et his parents."
"However, his mother ca first, taking to a villa. At first, I thought she was a good person, but..."
Her voice trembled, recalling so terrible mory, her malevolent aura intensifying.
Just as she was about to lose control again, a childish voice interrupted, "And then?"
Casual yet powerful, it pulled Bai Lan out of the darkness.
Bai Lan paused, blinked, and looked at the little girl. Seeing her curious expression, plump cheeks, and clear eyes, she couldn't help but like her. She was just like the daughter she had imagined.
She hugged the infant spirit, and the malevolent aura dissipated.
Without looking at Mrs. Luo, whom she found nauseating, she continued, "After that, they disappeared. Although the villa was large, it felt empty, with only a servant and bodyguards constantly monitoring . I sensed sothing was amiss, but the food they provided was good, and they didn't seem to have ill intentions towards .
Until three months later, Luo Jinhui's mother suddenly appeared and took to a private hospital under the pretext of a prenatal check-up. She had already bribed the doctor."
"She asked the doctor about the gender of my unborn child, and when she learned it was a girl, her attitude towards changed completely."
"She directly said she wanted to abort the child." Bai Lan choked up, recalling her cold, arrogant, and aloof deanor. She clutched her clothes tightly, as if seeking strength.
"I wanted to escape, but I knew I couldn't. The bodyguards were outside. So I could only stall for ti. Luckily, soone called her that day, and she left. The appointnt ended, and the surgery didn't happen."
"I thought it was fortunate, but I was wrong. I barely escaped the surveillance of the bodyguards and servant, but was captured and brought back within a day."
"She was furious, and she forcibly cut open my belly, taking out my child. She was only three months old!"
Bai Lan trembled, the pain of that mont unforgettable even after a hundred years.
Zhouzhou's eyes widened, looking at the wound on her abdon and then at the still undeveloped the infant spirit, her small fists clenched tightly.
This beast!
"My child, my baby." Bai Lan broke down, holding the infant spirit in her arms, tears streaming down her face.
Her child was killed by her own grandmother before even fully ford.
She was so heartless!
Qin Lie's eyes darkened.
While he was often portrayed as ruthless, he never hard the innocent, especially those related by blood.
The Luo family was unworthy of being called human!
