Rebirth: Her Sorrow - Chapter 12
MADAM NING and General Ning went to their own room, “Why can’t we just kill that disgusting pig”
General Ning glared at Madam Ning, Is this woman really dumb? If he could then he should have done it, the day that Ning Shufen arrived in their house. Why would they want to adopt a kid when they already had two child. But at that time they had no choice the father of Shufen was too powerful.
“If I could. I should have done it.”, General Ning’s voice was cold and sharp.
“Her Father is already missing, and there was a rumor that I heard that he was already dead. His enemies this time had catch up to him”, Madam Ning went to find an excuse and she found this, She heard it when she was passing by at the palace gates. The Knights was talking about it.
“Really?”, Madam Ning quickly nodded her head when General Ning ask her. Why would she tell her husband if she wasn’t sure.
“And also It’s suffocating to play that I’m her mother when she isn’t our daughter” Madam Ning rolled her eyes. She was disgusted every time Shufen called her mother. If it wasn’t for her parents she would not accept her in their Manor. She should have killed her the day she entered her home.
Madam Ning smiled at the thought that the poison on Shufen has already entered near her heart. Soon you will die and I won’t find an excuse to whip you every time I wanted to. I don’t need to see your face., “Just let someone kill her husband”
It’s not like you played your role good. You are like an evil step mother. General Ning was contemplating if he will do it. Should he hire an assassin or shall he kill her himself.
Shufen was staring at the door, her eyes are cold as she thought about what the madam had said. Madam Ning spoke like her life was just a dust. Like she wasn’t her daughter. She was trying so hard to control her emotion, but even though she had lived for two lifetimes. It still hurt. It hurt so much that her heart slowly shatters, tears falling so fast. Her breathing was heavy. She just couldn’t think clearly. Why would her mother want her dead? Shufen thought that Madam Ning was just unhappy to her. She couldn’t thought that Madam will think this way.
Yaling was staring at Shufen, she didn’t know what to do. This was the first time for a long time that Shufen broke down in front of her. Yaling was also shocked that her Mother would think that way. Madam Ning was too cruel, even though Madam Ning didn’t like Shufen she must not think that way. Why does Mother hate Shufen so much, that She will talk like that.
She had expected that Shufen will be heartbroken if she heard their mother treat her like this, but she broke down. The pain must be too much to endure for a child like Fen-Er, She thought.
Shufen had thought that her Mother must was one of the person behind the poisoning that happened to her. She just couldn’t get enough evidence but now, It is enough. What she said earlier was enough. I must have been too blind that I even protected them in my past life when someone wanted them to die.
Her hands were tainted because of them. And now that she knew it, how can she still stay here. Shufen knew that they might have decided to get rid of her. The day Master Mu appeared in her door, it was also the day that the happening in this lifetime was also to be changed. And Shufen was right. Madam Ning and General Ning was supposed to appear in her room when she will be at the age of 15 to sell her at the brothel.
“Ling-Jie” Shufen called Yaling, she wanted to know if she will help her. Yaling stared at her eyes.
“Yes, Fen-er?” Yaling held her hand, The time has come to this already.
“Will you help me?” Shufen’s voice was so soft, She just whispered but enough for Yaling to hear. Yaling smiled sadly. Her Mother will do extreme methods just to get rid of Shufen and Yaling knew this
“Of course”, Yaling had knew that this time will come, but she hadn’t expect this to happen so early. But she still can’t leave the Ning Manor. Her cultivation is still low. She was still at the first stage, Beyond Mortal. Though Shufen can deal with humans without cultivation, How can she deal with those powerful beings.
She need to be strong, stronger than anyone, that no one can trample on her. She needs to work hard. Harder than before. But Master was still out there somewhere. No one was there to guide her. Shufen was thinking of many ways to cultivate and…
She remembered that in her past life, she saw a book. A book of cultivation method. It was from a annihilated hidden cult. But she just can’t remember what was on the inside, She must go there.
“Then help me go at the Tia Mountain.” Yaling was shocked when she heard this. Tia Mountain was too dangerous for Shufen who didn’t have any cultivation. Yaling immediately refused her request but Shufen wasn’t discouraged by this. She already knew that Yaling will refuse so she now had a back-up plan.
“Fen-Er. It’s too dangerous for you. You are a woman without any cultivation. There is many too bad people out there!!!” Yaling was talking nonstop. Shufeb could see that Yaling was really concerned about her. But she had to this, It’s for Yaling and for her.
“Jie-Er, I’m now a Beyond Mortal. Okay?” Yaling didn’t notice that she was cultivating and was embarrassed. Yaling was at the third stage, Battle king. Yaling was more powerful than Shufen by two gaps and she didn’t even notice it. But still Yaling didn’t approved. Getting Yaling’s approval now is more difficult than to please my master.
“That’s why I need your help. I won’t go there with the identity of Ning Shufen. I will go there as a adventurer and I need you to help me with my disguise” Yaling was thinking about this too. If Shufen will go there, Her identity will attract attention. Yaling was about to agree but she frowned.
“You really think I will agree? No!” Shufen was helpless. This sister of mine is really hard. Plan B, Act pitiful and cute.
“Ling-Jie” Shufen pinched her arm and her eyes became teary. Yaling didn’t even bat an eyelid when she did this. Yaling was still frowning at her, her mouth was twitching.
“You were just cured and you’re already thinking about going out. It’s okay if it’s safe but no! You chose a very dangerous place.”, Yaling’s face was full of emotions as she talk.
“Jie-jie do you really think that this place is safe? I had a mother who hates me. A father who was indifferent. What more will I experience besides that?”, Shufen’s voice had no emotion. It was like she wasn’t alive. Like she’s not a human being.
“Fine. I’ll help you go there but for the mean time don’t do anything aside from eating and sleeping.” Shufen was happy that Yaling had now agreed. Shufen smiled and giggled when Yaling rolled her eyes.
“I will go out first to prepare for your journey without them noticing” Yaling turned to leave closing the doors. But then the door opened again. Yaling’s head could be seen.
“Remember what I said. Don’t do anything aside from resting” Yaling reminded her again, Shufen just nodded her head and laughed. No matter how dignified her sister is, She is the only one who can Annoy her to this extent.
