Chapter 113: What I Said Came True
Su Miaomiao and Yu Zhenzhen were already waiting outside. When they saw Liu Sanniang, their expressions were complicated.
Especially Yu Zhenzhen. Liu Sanniang had personally told her to keep an eye on Zi Yan. She had mentioned that Zi Yan would be lying in a pool of blood and her life and death would remain unknown.
At this moment, everything had come true.
As for their lovers, they were nowhere to be found. At the thought of this, Su Miaomiao and Yu Zhenzhen’s faces turned pale.
Wei Shilai had already arrived. He came out and said, “Miss Liu, please come in.”
When Liu Sanniang entered the room, the smell of blood had yet to dissipate. The doctor was bandaging Zi Yan’s wound. The wound was very deep and had been stitched up. The child was gone, and Zi Yan had lost a lot of blood. Her face was pale.
The doctor stood up. “Whether she can live or not depends on fate, but the hope is dim because she doesn’t want to live anymore. She already has one foot in hell.”
The doctor shook his head. A person who was determined to die could not be saved.
If she didn’t have any thoughts about life and wanted to die, no one could save her.
After the doctor left, Wei Shilai said, “It was the servant girl who discovered her first. It was because we had instructed the servant girl to keep an eye on her.”
Liu Sanniang looked at Zi Yan. She was surrounded by a deathly aura. She was about to die. If she could not find a hope for survival, she would die slowly. There was no way to save her.
The servant girl was brought up and was a little afraid. “I don’t know why Miss committed suicide. I really don’t know.”
Wei Shilai asked. “Has she been acting strangely recently?”
The servant girl shook her head. “No, the bawd had already agreed to let Miss leave. She just asked Miss to teach the girls here for three months. Miss had also freed herself. She was pregnant. Everything was fine.”
There was no reason for her to commit suicide.
Lin Zheng reported. “In the room, we found the things she prepared to give to the other two courtesans.”
She planned to give some jewelry to Su Miaomiao and Yu Zhenzhen after she left the brothel.
In that case, it seemed less likely that she would commit suicide.
Su Miaomiao and Yu Zhenzhen had already entered the place. When they heard this, they couldn’t help but cry.
Liu Sanniang walked to Zi Yan’s bed. “I can feel that someone created a dream for her and made her turn desperate. Let me take a look.”
Liu Sanniang reached out and grabbed Zi Yan’s hand. She released her power to read Zi Yan.
Liu Sanniang frowned and let go. “It’s a man called Tang Song.”
Yu Zhenzhen immediately said, “That’s Zi Yan’s lover.”
What did he say to Zi Yan to make her seek death?
People could roughly guess what made Zi Yan lose hope for survival. Once the hope that was given to her was taken away, she would no longer want to live in this world.
People who didn’t have hope could live without hope. But those who had seen hope… when it was taken away, they’d be left in despair.
The servant girl said, “But… but Master Tang hasn’t been here for two days.”
The bawd said, “Yes, once he left, Zi Yan told me that she was pregnant and said that Master Tang would take her away.”
Liu Sanniang said slowly, “He created a dream for her.”
It was a dream that was connected to reality. In that dream, Tang Song broke Zi Yan’s heart. When Zi Yan woke up, she could not tell if what happened was real or a dream, so she committed suicide in despair.
The bawd’s heart skipped a beat. Who had the ability to create dreams?
Liu Sanniang looked at Yu Zhenzhen and Su Miaomiao and said, “I suspect that your lovers are actually the same person.”
Wei Shilai frowned. “Same person? Can he change his appearance at will?”
Liu Sanniang thought about the scholar she met and nodded. “He can change his appearance at will, and he can also read your minds. Zi Yan likes older and more mature people who can give her a stable life. That’s why he became Master Tang. Yan Lan likes scholars, so he became Song Yu. Su Miaomiao likes swordsmen, so he became a swordsman. Yu Zhenzhen likes peddlers and wants that kind of ordinary life, so he became a peddler.”
Not only could this man change his appearance at will, but he could also change his appearance according to what people liked. In that way, he could infatuate them.
He didn’t expect that Zi Yan would get pregnant. He just wanted to have fun, so he wouldn’t marry Zi Yan and take her away from the brothel. It was best for him if Zi Yan died.
Wei Shilai was shocked. After a moment of silence, he said, “If he wants Zi Yan to die because she is pregnant, then what about Miss Yan Lan?”
Yan Lan was not pregnant.
Liu Sanniang looked at Wei Shilai and said calmly, “Sir, what if Yan Lan pretended to be pregnant to see if he really loved her?”
If that was the case, it made sense.
When a perfect man appeared in their life, they would constantly wonder if he really loved them. They would be paranoid and test to see if the love was real.
The bawd returned to her senses and sighed without saying anything.
Su Miaomiao and Yu Zhenzhen lowered their heads to hide their pale faces.
What Liu Sanniang said completely hit the nail.
Wei Shilai looked at Zi Yan, who was still lying on the bed. “Is there a way to arrest that person?”
If such a dangerous person was not captured, he might wander around and commit crimes with his strange abilities.
Many women might die without knowing what kind of man they had fallen in love with and what kind of man they had lost their lives for.
It was obvious that this man had special abilities. He could change his appearance at will. This was very tricky because you had no idea where he would be or if he had already left.
Liu Sanniang couldn’t help but look at Chu Yan. She said, “I think I’ve already met him. His next target is me.”
Wei Shilai was shocked. “Miss Liu, did he become that scholar you mentioned?”
Wei Shilai was very worried. A gentlemanly scholar was always the ideal type of man for young girls like Liu Sanniang. Wei Shilai was really worried that Liu Sanniang would be deceived, but looking at Liu Sanniang, he was surprised to see how calm and composed Liu Sanniang was.
Liu Sanniang nodded. “I think he’s very strange. After meeting him for the first time, I started to have feelings for him. Moreover, he even created a dream for me. That’s even stranger.”
