Chapter 440: Chapter 439: The True Face of Xu Zi_1

Her haughty demeanor reminded Xu Zi of Ye Ranran’s past self.

Back then, Ye Ranran, protected by her grandfather, still retained her sharp and rebellious spirit.

She was a radiant diamond, shining brilliantly and proudly.

"Do you think because you have the protection of Jun Mochan, destiny will be in your favor? Don’t forget, both the Huo and Jun families don’t welcome you. Do you really think you can become the lady of the Jun family?" Xu Zi taunted mercilessly.

That contemptuous gaze was akin to mocking a naive, uninformed child.

As if she was living in a dream.

"Whether I can defy fate, I don’t know. But you might want to spend less time worrying about me and more about yourself. After all this time you still haven’t had a child. Are you simply unable to, or just don’t want to?"

"It’s been nine years, Xu Zi. You can’t even produce an egg, let alone a child. How much longer do you think the Huo family will tolerate you?"

Her harsh words, like the sharpest of blades, gashed Xu Zi’s heart causing her to bleed profusely.

"Ha ha ha, Ye Ranran, do you know why I haven’t had a child for so long?" Xu Zi moved closer to her, speaking in a frigid tone in Ye Ranran’s ear.

"Because of what happened nine years ago! You pushed me down the stairs, causing me to miscarry. I can’t have kids anymore. This is why everyone hates you, Ye Ranran. This is the consequence of your actions."

Ye Ranran’s body turned cold. So that’s what happened.

"Xu Zi, back then, you fell on your own. If you can’t have kids, that’s your own karma. What does that have to do with me?" Very quickly, Ye Ranran regained her composure, looking at Xu Zi with glee in her eyes.

To this day, she would no longer allow herself to be humiliated by her.

Nine years was enough.

Nine years ago, it was because she loved Huo Yi. His coldness left her heartbroken.

It was his mistrust that hurt her.

She had made it through the toughest times. Now, was there anything she couldn’t face?

Looking at the steely determination in Ye Ranran’s eyes, Xu Zi laughed with satisfaction, "Yes, I fell on my own. But why don’t you tell everyone about it? Who would believe you?"

"No one would believe you, Ye Ranran. You were pleading with Huo Yi to trust you back then, but he didn’t even spare you a glance. Do you remember that?"

Do you remember? Of course she did. Back then, she was on the brink of kneeling before him.

But no one believed her. Not a single one.

"He even slapped you. Do you remember that, Ye Ranran?"

Xu Zi’s voice, like a devil’s whisper in Ye Ranran’s ear, failed to evoke any ripples within her.

"Yes, no one believed me. But Xu Zi, you will get your retribution sooner or later."

"Retribution? Ye Ranran, you’re still so naive. Without Jun Mochan’s protection, you’re worse than a dog, just like nine years ago."

Ye Ranran’s pupils dilated, her face contorted with rage: "Did you do it? Was it you?"

"If you’re referring to your withdrawal from school, yes, I was behind it. I touted what you had done and everyone believed that you had persecuted me."

"You were vilified, scorned by everyone. The school succumbed to pressure and expelled you."

"You were devastated, had a mental breakdown. I even urged your sister and stepmother to send you to a mental institution. Pity, it was so close."

"Such a pity, I wanted to visit you in the mental institution. But I believe, I’ll have the chance to."

"Xu Zi, is this your true nature?" the deep, furious question rang out. Who else could it be, but Huo Yi?
