Chapter 1425: Chapter 1424 Everything is Gone
Chu Qianli pushed the door open with a forceful thrust.
The bloody scene she imagined was nowhere to be seen.
Chu Feiyan was just sitting by the window, staring blankly at the backyard outside.
Even when they entered the room, Chu Feiyan remained motionless, her expression unchanged.
Chu Qianli glanced at Xi Jiu, who nodded and retreated to the courtyard.
Only then did Chu Qianli close the door, approach Chu Feiyan from behind, and gaze at her desolate figure.
"Commandery Princess Feiyan, what are your plans?"
Now that Chu Minghao and the Prince of Yu were both imprisoned in the Sky Prison, the Prince Residence was leaderless, leaving her as the mistress of the residence.
But given Chu Feiyan’s current state, she probably had no desire to return to the Prince Residence.
Yet she couldn’t continue like this—if she sank further into despair, her body wouldn’t endure.
Chu Feiyan didn’t turn around or show any intention of responding.
Chu Qianli said again, "Thank you this time..."
"I wasn’t helping you." Chu Feiyan suddenly turned her head, glaring at her, "Chu Qianli, did you think I would help you?"
"Of course you weren’t helping me; you were helping all of Nanming."
"Ha, I’m not that noble!" Chu Feiyan scoffed coldly as she stood up.
But perhaps because she’d been sitting for half a day, standing made her head suddenly spin.
Her vision went black for a moment, and she almost collapsed to the ground.
Seeing her body wobble, Chu Qianli quickly rushed over to support her.
Unexpectedly, once Chu Feiyan steadied herself, she shoved Chu Qianli hard.
Chu Qianli, still recovering from severe injuries, wasn’t hit very forcefully, but it was enough to make her stumble back several steps and fall to the ground with a thud.
For a moment, blood surged in her chest, the metallic taste rising to her lips, almost causing her to vomit.
Chu Feiyan was slightly surprised, but the astonishment only flickered in her eyes before disappearing.
Then, she laughed icily, "Yexuan isn’t here. Who are you putting on this act for?"
Chu Qianli couldn’t immediately get up, feeling somewhat powerless, so she stayed seated on the floor.
"Before returning from Xinhua Village, I was poisoned and almost died; I’m still not fully recovered."
She breathed shallowly, smiling, "It’s not an act."
Chu Feiyan ignored her, turning her face to look out the window again.
Her expression gradually turned melancholic once more.
"So what if you’re poisoned? As long as you survive, you’re life’s winner; everything belongs to you."
Everything, all of it was hers, including Yexuan, the person she liked most.
Gone, it’s all gone.
From the esteemed Commandery Princess Feiyan, she had become this pitiful figure, losing reputation, purity, identity, and status—everything was gone.
And she, Chu Qianli, had not only gained everything but was now exalted as the most esteemed woman in all of Nanming.
Yes, the most prestigious woman in all of Nanming; it was originally what she desired the most, but now, she was left with nothing, and it all belonged to Chu Qianli.
How could she be content?
But what was the use of being discontent?
"Ha, Chu Qianli, are you very happy now? Do you feel incredibly relieved?"
"All the grievances you suffered from me in the past, now, you can vent them completely, right?"
Chu Qianli frowned, speaking softly, "I never thought that way."
"Do you think I would believe you?"
Chu Feiyan suddenly lowered her head, glaring fiercely at her!
"I know you’re very happy inside; I’ve been completely destroyed, and you gained everything! You’re very happy, aren’t you?"
"My life has been completely ruined; I’ve lost everything! Everything!"
