The Fourth Lady

Chapter 18 The Present at School IV

Listening to Qingyan, Wei Yun still wanted to slap her, but she could only feel the concentrated pain in

her palm.

When she opened her hand, she saw that her palm was completely dark purple. This was an obvious

indication of poisoning.

Wei Yun looked to Qingyan and screamed, "Su Qingyan what did you do to me!!"

Su Qingyan quickly glanced over the audience and looked back to Wei Yun, "Just now, it was obviously

you that came looking for me, I didn't do anything."

Du Yulin, with both arms crossed, sneered at Qingyan, "I really didn't think that the great Su manor

fourth miss would use such a despicable trick." She turned her gaze back to Su Qingyuan next to her,

"Yuan'er, sure didn't expect that your fourth sister knew this kind of witchcraft."

Su Qingyuan disappointedly shook her head, "I never thought that fourth sister was this kind of person

either." However, her tone reflected her eagerness to rejoice at other's misfortunes.

"What happened here?"

A gentle voice sounded. When everyone turned their head, they saw a man clad in black heading

towards them. And he was precisely this lecture's teacher–Mo Hen.

Before Mo Hen could even speak up again, Wei Yun's voice sounded once more. She hid behind Mo

Hen and pitifully said, "Teacher Mo you've come at the right time, Su Qingyan is trying to kill me, look."

As she said this, she earnestly showed Mo Hen her dark purple palm.

Su Qingyan looked to Mo Hen carrying a faint smile; her clearcut voice sounded, "Teacher Mo, earlier it

was Miss Wei that came to bother me first, if you say that it was I that poisoned her, then you need to

bring out some evidence."

Su Qingyan's overbearing appearance made Mo Hen furrow his brows. In his memory, Su's fourth

miss, although unable to keep up with lectures and was Bogu Hall's laughing stock, but she always had

a cowardly demeanor. When did she become this aggressive?

Before Mo Hen could even mediate the conflict between the two, her voice entered his ears once

again, "Teacher Mo, aside from this bracelet, I don't have anything on me. I'm completely empty

handed."

Qingyan with a smile of confidence, shocked everyone in the audience. When did Su Qingyan become

like this?

"Fourth sister if you really did harm Miss Wei, then you need to apologize and make amends." Su

Qingyuan, seeing how everyone was looking at Su Qingyan, kindly spoke out.

"Big sister." Su Qingyan raised her voice pitifully, "It would've been fine someone else had said that, but

I'm your younger sister, how could you wrongly accuse me like that."

Su Qingyuan didn't expect that Su Qingyan would say something like that. After staring at Qingyan for

a moment, she spoke, "Fourth sister, I was just being considerate."

Seeing Wei Yun's appearance, Su Qingyan silently counted in her head: '1, 2, 3', and before anyone

could react, Wei Yun had already collapsed.

Mo Hen, upon seeing this, could only let the students disperse and then let someone call a doctor to

come treat Wei Yun.

The doctor told Mo Hen that Wei Yun was poisoned, and that the it was the poison of a banded krait.

There's no antidote for this kind of poison. This was the same as directly telling Mo Hen to make

funeral arrangements.

Mo Hen knew that for something like this to have happened at school, he needed to take responsibility.

But the only thing he could do was to send someone to inform the parents.

Seeing the sick and frail Wei Yun, her parents could only accept their fate and take her back. They

didn't even bother asking who it was that made their daughter like this; she was just a daughter of a

concubine after all. For them, it was the same whether she'd died or not. This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.

"Qingyan, are you alright?" Luo Yixin walked up next to her and worryingly asked, "Wei Yun is like that,

even if she died, it doesn't have anything to do with you."

When Qingyan looked to Luo Yixin, she smirked, "Naturally, it has nothing to do with me."

So what if she comes back to find her as a malicious spirit for revenge? As long as it's someone that

blocks her way, she will not hesitate to drag them with her to hell. All this was just the beginning.

"Qingyan, you've really changed a lot."

Listening to Luo Yixin's sorrowful words, Qingyan looked into the distance.

Luo Yixin listened to Qingyan's faint voice as if it was coming from the depths of hell.

"Only those who have died once could understand that to live is to reverse everything caused by

humans."

"Jingxuan, how could that girl of yours keep a banded krait at her side?" Xiu Ran look to him with a

puzzled look, "That snake isn't a type that can be easily tamed."

Murong Jingxuan smirked and let out a whistle. Afterwards, a silver python appeared before them.

"How is she?" Murong Jingxuan patted the snake on its head as it rubbed itself against his clothes.

Flickering its long tongue, it hissed out, "Very good to me, didn't bully me."

"Alright." Jingxuan still affectionately patted the snake's head, "You can go back." As if receiving the

order, the python immediately disappeared before them.

"Jingxuan, if I didn't already know that you could understand the language of snakes, then I would've

thought you were under a cursed." Xiu Ran looked to Jingxuan as his voice reluctantly sounded.

Seemingly, Murong Jingxuan didn't hear him, instead he said to himself, "Su Qingyan isn't as simple as

she looks on the surface."

"Somehow, I feel that she gives off this high and noble aura. That innate feeling was like that of an

Empress." Xiu Ran didn't understand why he would give out this kind of evaluation either.

This wasn't the first time Xiu Ran met Su Qingyan. The first time he met Su Qingyan was at the Dragon

Gate Festival five years ago. It was his first year in Donghe. Truthfully speaking, he was quite

disgusted with that cowardly Su Qingyan at the time. Especially when she even embarrassed herself in

a public place in front of many others. He even once thought of why a great general like Su Yun would

have a daughter like that.

The second time he met Su Qingyan was at the Talent Conference last year. And again, she made a

fool of herself. Not only embarrassing herself in front of the Princes, she even made the Su Manor lose

face.

And now this was their third meeting, yet this kind of feeling surfaced in him. As if she was a dignified

and noble Empress, her gaze was like that of the deceased Qilian Qingyan.

"Xiu Ran, now do you believe what I said?" Jingxuan triumphantly smiled at Xiu Ran, who was lost in

thought, "It's as if the former Su Qingyan no longer existed."

"Jingxuan, how could a person have this great of a change?" Xiu Ran looked to him and asked the

doubt in his heart.

Jingxuan rested his hands to the back of his head, "It's probably caused by her falling into the water a

few days ago. Perhaps she hit her head and was suddenly enlightened."

Xiu Ran listened to his vague deduction and struck him over the head with his fan, "I'm being serious

with you here!"

Jingxuan casually tossed a grape from the nearby bowl into his mouth, "But this was exactly what had

happened according to Fengluo's investigation, what can I do about it?"

Listening to his reply, Xiu Ran drowned himself in thought again. He was curious too. Just what in the

world happened, to have enable someone to change so drastically, could it really be just because of

the accident?
