Chapter 515: Chapter 515: Forced to Death (1)_1

"No matter what, we must get Heiye to dispose of the grains as soon as possible." Li Jiesong was frantic. "Make sure the You Residence behaves themselves."

You’s words grated on his ears, but she still promised with a grimace, "Fine, I will go to the gambling house tomorrow."

Seeing her comply, Li Jiesong finally stopped nagging contentedly, showing no sense of a man’s responsibility.

That was the thing You hated most about him. He was worthless, but he liked to act like a big shot in front of her. Ha!

Li Yanran’s recent days had been unbearably painful. There was another woman by Chu Suifeng’s side, and this was a torment and blow she could not bear. Every time she thought about Chu Suifeng’s protection of Lin Ziyin, Li Yanran wished she could kill Lin Ziyin on the spot.

"Mother, I don’t care, I’m going to ask Grandmother to make a decision for me." Unable to bear the pain in her heart, Li Yanran decided to take matters into her own hands. Fortunately, she had not lost her sanity due to jealousy yet.

First, she went to the Mu Family to sob. "Why can that slut Lin Ziyin enter the Wang Residence, but I can’t be with my cousin?"

"The Prince has a misunderstanding about our Marquis Residence. Without your grandmother, the Prince wouldn’t even glance at our Marquis Residence, let alone allow you to enter it." The lady from the Mu Family saw the situation clearly.

"It’s all father and mother’s fault. If they weren’t so cruel and harsh to my cousin back then, how would he have a grudge against our Marquis Residence?" Li Yanran complained through her tears, "Now, I’ve been implicated."

"How dare you!" The lady from the Mu Family gasped at her precious daughter’s accusations, she was so hurt she could hardly breathe. She raised her right hand, hoping to slap Li Yanran and wake her up.

"My lady, don’t do it." The old woman serving at the lady’s side was shocked and quickly blocked her.

Seeing the always loving Mu lady about to strike her, Li Yanran cried even more bitterly, "Go ahead and hit me, it would be better if you beat me to death. Anyway, my cousin doesn’t want me anymore, I just wish I were dead already."

"What a torment, what a torment." The lady from the Mu Family was torn between compassion and anger. Her raised hand shook in the air as tears streamed from her eyes.

"Fine, I won’t stop you from seeking your grandmother. But don’t come crying to me after you’ve hit a roadblock." The lady from the Mu Family couldn’t bear to punish Li Yanran harshly and ended up compromising again.

"Fine, I won’t seek you." As soon as she heard the lady’s acquiescence, Li Yanran set off towards the matriarch’s yard without caring about her swollen eyes.

"My lady, and the matriarch?" The old woman watched Li Yanran’s decisive figure with worry.

"Leave her be, she has been spoiled by me over the years. She needs to hit some obstacles to understand that she cannot always have her way." Lady Mu sighed and said through clenched teeth.

"Yes, my lady. But the miss is still young, what if she can’t bear it and does something rash?" The old woman voiced her worst fears.

Lady Mu didn’t find her meddlesome. She knew how stubborn Li Yanran was. If the issue with Chu Suifeng and Li Yanran wasn’t handled well, her daughter could indeed do something extreme. Moreover, the old woman was her dowry maid and a true member of the Mu family, always loyal to her.

The old woman had watched Li Yanran grow up and usually cared for her greatly. Her words today were truly out of concern for Li Yanran.

"Keep a close eye on her." After all, she was her own daughter, and in the end, Lady Mu didn’t have the heart to be harsh.

"Yes, my lady. I will have Jiao Bai go and keep an eye on her." The old woman quickly walked away.

Lady Mu sat alone in the room, sighing repeatedly. She felt as if the sighs she had let out today were almost as many as those of her past combined.
