Chapter 2008: Chapter 482: Mutual Torment, Till Death Do Us Part (Part 3)
Hu Lin squinted and got into the car to leave.
——
The fourth car stopped in front of the ancient castle, and two bodyguards carried the red carpet from inside the gate right to the car door.
Butler Ziyu greeted them respectfully, personally walking over to open the car door.
"Welcome, Master."
From the first car, Jiang Mi’er stepped out wearing a black tight outfit, directing the bodyguards to protect the middle car, her eyes vigilantly scanning the surroundings, eliminating any possibility of danger.
The car door opened, and a woman in a black long dress bent down to step out, her fair skin glowing with the softness of jade in the dark night.
Her brows are like the spring breeze, her eyes like a warm winter, even the chilling night wind brushing past her ear seemed to soften.
She is a woman whose age is indistinguishable, with bright and alluring brows and eyes, yet her pitch-black gaze is like a deep pool, having experienced the vicissitudes of life, ultimately returning to silence.
She seems like a pampered young lady, yet also resembles an elegant and dignified noblewoman.
The woman curved her lips into a smile, looking at the man bowing beside her, her voice like jade beads: "Ziyu, you’ve worked hard."
"It is my honor to serve the Master. After a long and arduous journey, the room has been prepared for the Master, please have a rest first."
The woman stepped inside, each move was filled with indescribable grace and nobility, her fluttering skirt added a touch of mesmerizing brilliance in the night.
Butler Ziyu followed closely at her side.
Just as she stepped into the living room, a young girl sitting on the sofa looked over, her gaze somewhat blurred in the lamplight, the girl stood up with a smile, "Mother."
Standing under the light, she was like a jade figure, truly beautiful.
The woman smiled and nodded: "So late, and still not resting?"
"I was waiting for my mother." She finally arrived, the plan could be smoothly executed, her nails gripping tightly into the palm of her hand, she restrained the excitement in her heart.
"Waiting for me?" The woman gently raised her eyebrows, walked to her side, and lifted a strand of hair resting on her cheek behind her ear, Yun Ya felt the gaze that fell on her face was like a sharp knife, painfully scraping.
"Why have you gotten so thin? Ziyu? How have you been taking care of the Princess?" The woman’s tone carried a bit more severity.
Butler Ziyu immediately bowed and said: "The Princess has been unwell recently, it is Ziyu who failed to take proper care of the Princess, Ziyu willingly accepts the punishment."
"It’s not his fault; don’t you know the condition of my body? It’s from the womb." Her gaze seemed somewhat mocking.
The woman sighed, her eyes filled with compassion: "My poor child, what kind of hardships have you suffered all these years?"
Yun Ya forced back the nausea, her smile becoming even softer: "It is precisely because of the hardships I’ve endured over the years, I’ve come to understand one thing."
The woman’s brows slightly raised.
Yun Ya gently smiled and said: "With lunatics... there’s no room for family affection."
The woman shook her head with a smile, sighed, "My daughter has truly grown up."
Yun Ya’s eyes were sharp, aggressively questioning: "Am I really your daughter?"
"When I was pregnant for ten months, I gave birth to you and your brother. You have a red birthmark the size of a needle under your right armpit, and your brother has one just like it under his left armpit. This secret is known only by me in this world."
Her armpit has a birthmark? Yun Ya was completely unaware.
The woman smiled and patted her shoulder: "Never doubt your ancestry; both you and your brother are my biological children. How could a mother bear to harm you? Once we find your brother, the four of us can be reunited."
A family of four? Yun Ya was shocked, her eyes widening.
The woman had already turned away with a smile.
Who is your family of four, Yun Shen, Ji Lanyi, you two scumbags should torment each other, but my brother and I will no longer be manipulated by you.
Yun Ya took a deep breath, watching Ji Lanyi’s figure disappear from sight, she returned to her room without stopping her steps, closed the door, and quickly ran to the bathroom, taking off her shirt, and raised her left arm to the mirror.
In the depths of her armpit, a small vermilion birthmark on her fair skin was like a drop of blood in the snow, stark and glaring.
Yun Ya’s breath trembled, her hands clenched tightly to the edge of the bathroom sink, her fingers bulging with veins, she stared fiercely at herself in the mirror, her heart sinking heavily.
If she previously held onto a sliver of hope, that woman was merely someone who looked like Ji Lanyi, she wouldn’t be so conflicted and pained, but now, that last sliver of hope was shattered.
Why? Why is it like this...
Reborn into this life, even heaven is unwilling to let her go?
