Chapter 398: Chapter 398: Platinum Ring (2)

As soon as Lin Shuyue saw the pattern on the box, she recognized it!

“Lianxi, how could you use a box like this to store things? It’s so ominous!” Lin Shuyue frowned, disapprovingly looking at her.

Su Lianxi lifted her head, flashing her a brilliant smile, “Of course, I have to use this box because… it originally contained ashes.”

Lin Shuyue turned deathly pale with fright!

“Lianxi, you… where did you get this kind of thing?” Lin Shuyue felt that she hardly recognized her daughter anymore, “What do you need these things for at your young age? Are you superstitious or something… Lianxi, listen to me, that stuff is useless. If you want to win back Ning Yichen’s heart, you still need to…”

“Mom, if I really want to secure my position as the young mistress of the Ning Family, I can only count on it.” Su Lianxi said with a sardonic laugh, placing the box on the table and pulling out a wet wipe to clean it.

The urn, after all, had been put to thought and looked worn.

Lin Shuyue’s heart thumped wildly, and it took her several attempts to find her voice, “Lianxi, what exactly is going on here? You said this contains ashes, then… whose ashes are they?”

Su Lianxi laughed briefly, no longer playing coy, “The biological mother of Su Zixi. But now, it seems, she might not even be her real mother.”

Lin Shuyue stood up abruptly, glaring at Su Lianxi fiercely!

“You should still remember that Su Zixi always treasured this object.” Su Lianxi recalled past events with a cold laugh, “Right after Auntie Zhou passed away, when we moved into the Su Family, Su Zixi kept holding this box, unwilling to part with it even for meals or sleep. I thought it was some treasure, so I took the opportunity to steal it.”

Lin Shuyue looked at her in disbelief, “You were so young then! And that was Zhou Rong’s ashes!”

Speaking of which, Zhou Rong’s death had something to do with her as well. Her relationship with Su Guo’an was inappropriate, to say the least. Now, seeing Zhou Rong’s urn right in front of her, Lin Shuyue couldn’t help but feel guilty. And after guilt, fear set in.

Su Lianxi smiled nonchalantly, “So what? When I just moved in, her gaze spelled unwelcome, as if I was an outsider, an invader… So, I stole the thing she treasured the most. She cried for so long! Haha… I originally wanted to throw away this urn, but seeing how she cherished it, constantly pestering Dad for it, I thought maybe this urn could be useful, so I kept it.”

Lin Shuyue stared, dumbfounded, then suddenly murmured, “That day… the day Master He took Su Zixi away, she was also looking for this thing. They even searched mine and your father’s room, no wonder they didn’t find it, it has always been with you…”

“Yeah, too bad they didn’t go to my room.” There was a sense of triumph in Su Lianxi’s laugh, “But it’s also fortunate they didn’t go to my room!”

Seeing her, Lin Shuyue’s gaze filled with a touch of terror! Not to mention Zhixi, even she had not expected that the urn had always been with Lianxi! After all, who would have thought that Lianxi, who hadn’t even reached three years old at the time, would do such a thing?

Lin Shuyue had always thought she herself was quite scheming. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have been able to hook up with Su Guo’an in the first place. But compared to her daughter, she suddenly felt downright weak!
