Chapter 1773 - “Ji Song (1)” (1/2)

“I’m fine Gu Lao.” She smiled bitterly after getting pulled up, her eyes filled with sorrow: “I reaped these injuries upon myself.”

Isn’t it?

I only didn’t want that woman to use Ling Yan for her own schemes in the name of being the child’s mother, who could’ve guessed such a shameless person would openly attack me without fear of retribution.

“It’s that woman who’s responsible?” Gu Lao flared with resentment, his eyes poisonous like a snake.

Gu Ya bites her lip: “I’ll fix this on my own Gu Lao, you don’t have to step in.”

“Miss, even at a time like this you still refuse to let me get involve?” Gu La angrily roars, “Those people have already stomped on your head, how can you bear with it? I really don’t know what you are afraid of Milady, no one will know or threaten you again if I simply remove them from the picture.”

Gu Ya hung her head even more: “Gu Lao, it’s not like you don’t know the monarch’s personality. I do not want you to die for me, this matter must be solved using other means. Don’t worry, I will find a way, trust in my ability…” Having said that, the injured woman pulls herself forward at the exit, that figure unstable and frail from the rear.

Murdering has never been Gu Ya’s way of dealing with obstacles. In the past she used her wits to overcome the hurdles, and into the future she would continue to do the same, that’s how she’s been able to stay by Heavenly side for so long while others were eventually dismissed due to their tainted ways.

……

In the backyard of the Monarch Manor, Di Ling Yan was bored and dragging her little feet through the stream when she overheard a voice from the back.

“You… who are you?”

Turning around out of curiosity, Di Ling Yan quickly landed her sight upon a palish little girl who’s around five to six years old standing under the moonlight. Though the other child had a delicate contour that would be considered a beauty in the making, but that morbid complexion ruined all of her gift in making her appear weak and sickly.
