Chapter 10: Sisterly Love Broken, One Drunken Night Hard to Explain a Thousand Worries

  Qiao Er's words were devoid of feeling, her eyes no longer held the same pure and lovely innocence as before, but instead were cold and sarcastic. Qi Lin couldn't help but feel helpless at the sight, and her heart felt chilled by Qiao Er's words. She realized that Qiao Er was no longer the same person she used to be, and that an unbridgeable distance had grown between them, a chasm of thousands of mountains and rivers.

  Even so, Qilin couldn't help but exchange a few pleasantries "I heard from Xiaofeng that you're at Miss Mudan's place, how are you doing? I originally wanted to come visit you guys long ago, but I just couldn't get out."

  Qiao'er sneered, is she living well? Yes, she's living well, in other people's eyes, she dresses the best, eats the best, but who knows the humiliation she suffers every day? And all of this, was caused by the person in front of her. If it wasn't for her abandoning herself, how would she... As soon as she thought about the humiliation she suffered in the past, Qiao'er gritted her teeth with hatred until her mouth was filled with a bloody taste, only then did she relax her lips.

  Qilin's head lifted painfully, she knew that Peony was a hypocrite, and that Cui'er's life would not be good. The superficial prosperity was just a decoration, but if she had known earlier, she would not have let Cui'er fall into Peony's hands. But the next second, Qilin's hand was tightly grasped by Cui'er, whose eyes were filled with hatred and anger that pierced her heart. Her wrist was grabbed so hard it hurt, but Qilin did not make a sound.

  "Good girl, I'm hungry."

  Before she could finish speaking, Qilin was pulled away by Qiao'er. Along the way, branches brushed against her face and snowflakes hit her face nonstop. Finally, they stopped in front of the laundry institute.

  Coming here, the scenes of laughter in the past are still vivid, I knew that such a peaceful day would not last long, but I didn't expect it to end so soon.

  Qiao'er walked to the door of her former room, pushed it open without hesitation, and the interior decorations remained the same. She walked over to the closet, which had not been occupied for a long time and was covered in dust. Qiao'er didn't care, opened the closet, took out the black wooden box inside, turned around and walked outside.

  "Here are your things, not a single item missing. Consider it repayment for saving my life back then." Cui'er stuffed the wooden box into Qilin's arms and said coldly, "From now on, we are no longer sisters."

  Qiaoer turned around and walked away, but was pulled back by Qilin. She shook off Qilin's hand and took a few steps back in disgust.

  Noticing Cui'er's disgust, Qilin stopped in her tracks and said, "Even if you sentence me to death, please give me a reason. If it's because I approached Yu Mu, then I can tell you that being by Young Master Yu Mu's side as his personal maid was not my intention either. I had tried every means to come see you all, but were blocked by that despicable Mai Dong each time."

  But Qilin didn't find any understanding in Cui'er's eyes, only a hint of mockery. Qilin knew her explanation was useless and could only helplessly turn away.

  Qiao'er raised the corner of her mouth and said coldly, "You speak so eloquently. If you didn't have intentions towards Yu Mu Gongzi, why would you keep all his things? If you hadn't planned to stay by Yu Mu Gongzi's side from the beginning, how would Zhen Zhu target you? If you hadn't refused to see me, we wouldn't be in this situation. Do you know what kind of humiliation I endure every day? Do you know that Su Feng was blinded and kicked out of Zui Hua Lou because of you, living a life worse than death? Do you know that Xi Ye was forced to marry an eighty-year-old man as his concubine because of you? Do you know that Xi Ye already has someone she likes, and after this winter passes, she can leave and marry that person?"

  What?! These words were like a thunderclap, making Qilin unable to digest them all at once. She stared blankly at Qiao'er, thinking that so many things had happened in the more than a month she was away. No wonder the hatred in Qiao'er's eyes was so strong. But she hadn't done anything, and she didn't even know that Qiao'er and the others had come looking for her. Thinking of this, Qilin decided to explain, but when she looked up, she saw Qiao'er's icy tears and slow-burning hatred. She thought better of it and gave up.
