Nanyang’s complexion was terrible, and her aura was much weaker than before. I stopped a few steps away from her.
Nanyang walked forward, and I stepped back. I raised my hand and gestured, “Stop! Let’s talk like this here.”
Nanyang’s eyes were filled with tears. “Nanxing, are you afraid of me? Afraid that I’ll harm you?”
I nodded.
There was no reason to sugarcoat things. Since I was young, I had suffered so much at Nanyang’s hands.
In her current state, she was perfectly vulnerable. If anything were to happen to her, I would definitely be blamed.
Nanyang stopped. She seemed to have made up her mind. “Nanxing, don’t worry. I’m not here to harm you.”
I looked at her. I still couldn’t put my guard down. “Alright. I’ll listen.” My body was on full alert.
Nanyang looked at me, tears falling down her cheeks. “Nanxing, I know you hate me. You hate me for how I treated you in the past. Will you forgive me if I apologize?”
She looked at me, but I was unmoved. It wasn’t like I hadn’t seen such acting before. I couldn’t be bothered.
Nanyang was a little disappointed. “I came here because I hope you’ll take care of my poor child after I die. Please help me, considering we were once sisters.”
Her hand gently stroked her stomach.
I jumped in fright. “What are you talking about? You’re not going to die. You’re going to be a mother, so you shouldn’t say things like that!”
I took a careful look at her. Only then did I realize she wasn’t acting this time.
Nanyang blubbered, “Nanxing, I have tried my best. Jing Ning still got together with Ye Qian. I can’t stop them. I don’t care when Jing Ning messes outside the house because he isn’t serious with them. But Ye Qian is different! Once Ye Qian allows Jing Ning to be with her, Jing Ning will never return to my side.”
I fell silent. Even Nanyang understood this. It was obvious how important Ye Qian was to Jing Ning.
“What is your plan then?” My voice involuntarily softened.
Nanyang sobbed. Perhaps my tone had rekindled her hope, and she took another step forward. “Nanxing, I won’t let Ye Qian get away with this. If she insists on being with Jing Ning, then I’ll fight her to the death!
“I definitely won’t let this adulterous couple get what they want. Even if I die, I’ll die as a member of the Jing family. After I die, I’ll stay in the Jing family to haunt them. I’ll make sure they don’t have peace for the rest of their lives!”
Nanyang was extremely resentful. Her eyes were wide open, and her tone was vicious.
I sighed. I reminded her, “Nanyang, we need to do everything when we’re alive. No one knows what will happen after we die. What if there’s nothing after death? You can’t place your hope on life after death. You’ll only die in vain.”
Nanyang glared at me. The anger was stuck in her chest. It had nowhere to go. After a long time, she let out a whimper.
“Nanxing, I’ll use my own way to take revenge on them. I only ask one thing of you. Please take care of my child. He’s innocent, but Ye Qian will not treat him well. Jing Ning bows to Ye Qian’s order, so he won’t care that this is his child. Nanxing, considering this child is still blood-related to you, please help me take care of him! I beg you!”
I was speechless. I didn’t expect the things I predicted to come true.
