Chapter 386 Talking Nonsense Even When Facing Death
Chapter 386 Talking Nonsense Even When Facing Death
Lou Yue, who was still chanting the incantation, felt a jolt in her heart when she heard this voice and turned around.
This time, she saw Old Madam Duan staring at her intently.
His expression was no longer blank; instead, he stared at Lou Yue with great seriousness.
As expected, as soon as Mo Yundu passed away, all the spells and formations set up by witchcraft disappeared, and Old Madam Duan also regained consciousness.
Upon regaining consciousness, he immediately called her by her real name.
Lou Yue instantly forgot about the incantation she was still reciting, straightened up, and stood stiffly in front of Old Madam Duan. "You..."
say what?
"You've mistaken me for someone else?"
A few words, spoken almost without thinking, came out of his mouth.
Although Madam Duan knew she had been kidnapped and couldn't say too much that would be detrimental to her, she couldn't bear to watch any longer and didn't care about anything else.
She starved and questioned Lou Yue, whose face looked exactly like Song Beiyou's, "Do you know what you're doing?"
I've raised you for so many years, do you think I don't know who you are?
One look from you back then was enough to make me suspicious.
Are you crazy? Why are you giving up a perfectly good life and wallowing in self-pity?!
Although I was hungry, I still had plenty of energy.
Lou Yue's face turned terribly red and burned after being scolded by Old Madam Duan, but she still refused to admit it.
"You're the one who's really crazy, talking nonsense even when you're about to die."
When Lou Yue said this, she was actually terribly guilty. She had been exposed and had no secrets left in front of Old Madam Duan.
As a result, her words lacked any real conviction.
Having been in the elite circles for so long, Madam Duan is an expert at reading people and understands perfectly what a young person's glance or small gesture means.
"You're feeling guilty, Lou Yue. You're still young. Don't ruin your whole life because of a moment of confusion."
How heartbroken your parents would be if they knew this from beyond the grave.
......"
Old Madam Duan spoke at length, sincerely trying to persuade Lou Yue.
However, Lou Yue's whole demeanor changed when she heard about her parents in the afterlife.
Huh~
Her father was forcibly pulled up from below by Duan Yao and made to be pointed at and gossiped about by the public. Her mother's and her family's graves were all dug up by Duan Yao's men.
At this point, doesn't it seem particularly hypocritical for the old lady to say that her parents know this from beyond the grave?
At that moment, Lou Yue suddenly said coldly, "Madam, you have no idea what a good thing your son has done."
I'm exposing my father in the afterlife, so that he won't find peace even as a ghost.
They dug up my ancestral graves, preventing many of my relatives from resting in peace after death.
You tell me, they're all too busy taking care of themselves in the afterlife, who else will care about me?
I can only feel sorry for myself. I don't expect others to give me what I want; I have to muster the courage to fight for it myself.
Madam Duan's eyes widened.
Upon hearing these words, veins bulged on her aged face. "As expected, you are Lou Yue!"
"That's right!"
This time, Lou Yue did not continue to deny it.
Madam Duan's eyes widened even more, and she tried to break free of the ropes binding her, but to no avail.
The rope was tied very tightly, making it impossible to move at all.
"Stop struggling, it's no use." Lou Yue looked at the old man and softened her tone.
"When did you realize I was Lou Yue? Was it really from the very beginning?"
Madam Duan, "That's right!"
My first visit to the Han Group was to test whether you were truly Lou Yue.
Lou Yue smiled coldly, "Did you find out?"
Madam Duan said, "No, it seems that you have deliberately destroyed many of your physical characteristics."
Lou Yue clapped her hands, "Very good, as expected of Duan Yao's mother."
They have both skill and strategy.
Madam Duan was extremely agitated, her voice rising to a fever pitch, "A forced marriage is never sweet. All you've done is because of my Duan Yao."
"Why don't you think about it and see if it'll be of any use?"
Upon hearing this, Lou Yue's eyes slowly lowered, filled with disappointment.
When she raised her eyes again, she questioned Old Madam Duan, "You didn't help me, and now you're saying these things."
I am your closest adopted daughter, whom you raised by your side, and you won't even help me.
Instead, he went to help some random wild woman who had appeared out of nowhere.
Ultimately, it's because you look down on my status. You know what kind of shady things my father did; you think I'm not worthy to be with your precious son!
"Are you confused!" Old Madam Duan once again showed a look of disappointment. "If I looked down on you, I wouldn't have brought you to the Duan family, and I wouldn't have taken you as my adopted daughter."
We certainly won't let our Duan family's dark web help you suppress those scandals about your father.
I will provide you with education, nurture you into adulthood, and let you live in the limelight just like other young masters and ladies in Beijing's elite circles.
But you…”
"What?!" Lou Yue exclaimed in surprise, her heart pounding with shock, and she felt incredibly sad.
She had no idea that Old Madam Duan had helped her cover up her father's scandal.
I've chatted with her occasionally and we've talked about how her father is a nice person.
She used to be proud of it, but now she's being told that all of this was a fact that Old Madam Duan had suppressed.
Madam Duan observed her expression. "It seems you haven't found out about the time I pressured your father."
Back then, I went against my conscience, I was too young, and I softened after your mother begged me so desperately.
In hindsight, we were terribly wrong! We raised a tiger only to have it come to our doom!
His tone grew increasingly harsh, and his words became more and more scathing.
Lou Yue felt a mix of emotions, her heart racing and her mind racing.
"You bullshit!"
She said that, but only she knows what she really felt.
She knew Madam Duan well; she was loyal and would never lie in a critical moment.
But that's exactly why he was so incredibly sad.
Just then, the small red dot on the top of the cellar started flashing.
Lou Yue saw this.
Oops!
Someone has arrived outside.
When this thought came to mind, Song Beiyou's jealous face still flashed through her mind.
Without thinking, he picked up the knife on the table, untied the ropes binding Old Madam Duan, and pulled her up.
There are indeed people outside.
The area is large and maze-like, so each cellar has an alarm.
The little red light flashing overhead was the alarm that would sound as soon as someone stepped through the door.
Song Beiyou, Duan Yao, and Gu Panpan split up into several groups to search for Old Madam Duan.
Among them, Song Beiyou found this place based on the eight-character orientation sense of witchcraft.
She was accompanied by her old partner, Jia Buxiu.
Jia Buxiu: "Is it here?"
Song Beiyou nodded. "It's here."
Jia Buxiu looked around the place and said, "It's like a haunted house, deserted and overgrown with weeds."
"You can see right through this house; is anyone really here?"
Song Beiyou didn't point to the house, but to the back of the house, "There, the backyard, hurry up and go take a look."
