Chapter 107 Death to Schemes III (1/2)

Seeing Su Qingyuan like that, Ning Siyao felt as if she was getting struck by lighting.

It was as if she'd already predicted what had happened that night, and that it wasn't as simple as it appeared on the surface.

In the end, the bitter fruit planted by oneself, still needed to be repaid.

Just as the line: 'Heaven sins, yet can live; self sins, cannot live.'*

Perhaps, is referring to people like Ning Siyao.

(*T/N: Originally comes from the Classic of History, Shangshu, by Confucius; however, the author seemed to have written one of the character wrongs, unsure if intentional or not. The intended meaning I'm fairly sure is the same though. Instead of 'live', in the original, it's the word 'avoid' in the first part. It means along the lines of, you can avoid natural disasters brought by heaven, but you can't escape from disasters brought about by yourself.)

Su Qingyuan's scream spread to every corner of the courtyard. When Chai Yiyun arrived at Su Qingwen's room, she found Su Qingwen lying on the bed, that appearance looked very pitiful.

”Wenwen, what's wrong?” Chai Yiyun walked up next to Su Qingwen and worryingly asked, even pulling her into her arms. That appearance certainly looked like a good mother.

”Mother, just what do you think is wrong with big sister?” Su Qingwen carefully asked as she hugged Chai Yiyun. ”Big sister seemed to have changed into another person.”

Chai Yiyun didn't know just what was wrong with Su Qingyuan either, or rather what Ning Siyao had done, but this matter seemed to have exceeded their expectations. Perhaps, none of them were able to bear the consequences.

”Wenwen, don't worry. You have mother here, I won't let you be harmed.” Chai Yiyun patted Su Qingwen's back as she spoke in a soft voice.

Now that Su Yun's returned, she needed to think of other ways to deal with Su Qingyan. But just what ways can she deal with Su Qingyan?

Chai Yiyun suddenly thought of a person she could use, and that was Su Ming's concubine. That concubine, called Ye Jiqing, has a son. But this son was ignorant and incompetent; eating, drinking, whoring, and gambling*, not one he didn't touch. And Ye Jiqing would always not be able to do anything about this son.
