Chapter 1383 - : She Couldn’t Bear to Do It (1/2)

Jun Xiyan looked at Jun Xiqing and enunciated each word with a smile. “You’re not a daughter of the Jun family. You’re merely an orphan who was abandoned by your parents. Our parents and uncle knew all along. Your blood can naturally neutralize any toxins and this wasn’t due to the medicine uncle gave you. It’s the only reason they adopted you 23 years ago.

“23 years ago, Uncle Jun was young and intelligent and was the President of Country Z while our father was the General of the army. The Jun Family was filled with talents but this also attracted the envy of other people which led to a lot of resentment and misfortune, ultimately resulting in a shaky rule.

“You showed that you were different from a young age. You were interested in politics and had intelligence second to none, so Uncle Jun and Dad, who came from political families, decided to place their hopes on you. Uncle Jun brought you back to the President’s residence and decided to bring you up himself and teach you the art of wolf taming

“Jun Xiqing, you’ve done great. You haven’t let Uncle Jun or Dad down at all. When we were in danger, you were willing to risk your life to save us and were able to become one with the wolves at the young age of 20, creating the mighty Wolf Iron Steed Troop. You lead the Jun Family to make history. As the young daughter of the Jun Family, you became a living legend.

“But your journey ends here. We don’t need you anymore. Uncle and Dad are ours. They’re not your relatives!”

The hurtful words were like knives stabbing into her as tears blurred her vision, falling in fat droplets down her face. They burnt her eyes and scalded her heart.

So all of this had been a lie.

Her entire life had been a lie, all a lie.

She still remembered Dad and Mom holding her and patting her head as a child, saying that it would be better if she wasn’t so smart.

She still remembered her Uncle holding her hands before he died, his eyes full of hope and pity.

So it had all been a lie.

There had been no love at all.

They hadn’t loved her at all.

They had brought her back to their household and fabricated an entire world for her just to use her as a pawn.

Jun Xiqing wept, her shoulders shuddering as she held herself weakly, wanting to give herself some warmth.

All her beliefs, the country, and family she had used her life to protect and the path to power that she hadn’t dared to slow her footsteps on… All this had been a mere joke.

She wasn’t the daughter of the Jun Family?

Then who was she?

Who exactly was she?

“Come, take Jun Xiqing away!” At this moment, Jun Xiyan ordered her underlings to come over.

A few guards entered the room swiftly, ready to capture Jun Xiqing. At this, Ping Ping’s gaze turned cold. So this was the true nature of the Jun Family. Now she knew how insightful Her Highness’s second instruction in the car was.

Her Highness had never expected the situation to turn out like that, but as an intelligent politician, had great intuition about the danger that was about to befall her.

“Your Highness!” Ping Ping shouted.

Ah Da was waiting with the Wolf Iron Steed Troop outside. As long as Her Highness signaled to them by dropping her cup, they would rush in immediately.

Jun Xiqing curled her frozen fingers slowly. She was holding a small silver cup.

Dropping such a cup would make a loud sound.

With tears in her eyes, Jun Xiqing looked at Jun Xiyan, Jun Chulin, and Jun Xiling with blurry eyes again. She couldn’t understand how they could be so cruel.

She couldn’t understand why she couldn’t do it.

She couldn’t drop the cup.

Ha.

Jun Xiqing’s red lips curved into a smile slowly through her tears. She was smiling and crying like a child. In the end, she was the only one immersed in this fairytale world.
