Chapter 610 He Touched Her
Liu Sanniang and Mrs. Su went in together.
Lin Shuran sat beside Mrs. Lin. Her eyes were red and the wound on her neck had been bandaged.
Mrs. Lin said to Lin Shuran worriedly, “Shuran, look, this is Miss Liu. She’s very capable. Tell her what you are afraid of. She can definitely help you.”
Lin Shuran pursed her lips and refused to speak.
Mrs. Lin was afraid that Liu Sanniang would lose her patience, so she was a little anxious. “Miss Liu specially came to help you. Tell her.”
Tears welled up in Lin Shuran’s eyes. “Mother, don’t force me, okay?”
Mrs. Lin said anxiously, “I’m not lying to you. Miss Liu is different from those charlatans. Young Marquis Su even acknowledged her as his shifu.”
Su Yanyu responded proudly. “My shifu has seen all kinds of things. What happened to you is not a big deal. There’s nothing in this world that she can’t solve. I think you must have encountered something. If you hide it and refuse to tell us, even god can’t save you.”
Lin Shuran looked at Su Yanyu and refused to speak even more.
Mrs. Lin was put in a difficult position. “Mrs. Su… This…”
Mrs. Su said to Su Yanyu, “Go outside.”
Su Yanyu was unwilling. “It’s not like I don’t know what happened.”
Mrs. Su repeated sternly. “Get out.”
Something else must have happened to make Lin Shuran want to commit suicide.
Lin Shuran refused to say it, perhaps because Su Yanyu was a man and she didn’t want him to listen.
Liu Sanniang also looked at Chu Yan.
Chu Yan stood up and left, dragging Su Yanyu with him.
When only Mrs. Su, Mrs. Lin, and Liu Sanniang were left in the room, Mrs. Lin said to Lin Shuran, “Tell us, what happened?”
Lin Shuran still refused to say anything. She lowered her head and tears fell on the back of her hand.
Mrs. Lin’s heart ached. “Do you not like Xu Qing? If you really don’t like him, I won’t force you to marry him. If you want to marry someone you like, tell me. But you don’t say anything and want to die. This is no different from gouging my heart.”
Mrs. Lin felt that Lin Shuran had someone she liked or had been deceived by a man. That was why she refused to say it because it was embarrassing. She was a rich young lady and was well-educated. If she did something out of line, as her parents, how could they not be angry?
Lin Shuran cried and shook her head.
Mrs. Su sighed. If Mrs. Lin couldn’t persuade her daughter, it would be even harder for outsiders.
Seeing Lin Shuran like this, Mrs. Su couldn’t help but feel anxious.
Mrs. Su was also a mother and could empathize with Mrs. Lin. She even forgot that Liu Sanniang had a psychic ability. Without needing anyone to speak, she could sense what was going on.
Liu Sanniang stood up and walked towards Lin Shuran. Her voice was calm. “Miss Lin, have you heard of mind-reading?”
Lin Shuran slowly raised her head and looked at Liu Sanniang. She opened her mouth. “I’ve heard of it.”
The rumors about Liu Sanniang were already known in every household in the capital.
It was said Miss Liu was a god who came to cleanse evil. Where there was evil, there was her.
Lin Shuran’s thoughts were a little complicated. She looked at Liu Sanniang and did not feel that there was anything special about her. Could rumors be trusted? Of course not. Without seeing it with her own eyes and experiencing it, how could she believe a rumor?
In her eyes, Liu Sanniang was just a gentle-looking girl.
Lin Shuran bit her lip. “Can you do it?”
Liu Sanniang reached out her hand. “Miss Lin, you’ll know when you try.”
Liu Sanniang’s hand was fair, and her fingers were long and chubby, looking beautiful and healthy.
Lin Shuran slowly raised her hand and gently placed her hand on it. She did not know why she did this. Looking at Liu Sanniang’s calm eyes, she thought that it was probably because she wanted to expose Liu Sanniang’s lie.
Lin Shuran believed that there were capable people in this world, but she did not believe that Liu Sanniang was one of them.
People who were capable must have experienced the vicissitudes of life. Liu Sanniang was simply too young. It was impossible for her to have extraordinary ability.
Liu Sanniang held Lin Shuran’s hand and released her power, wrapping it around her bit by bit. The power was as gentle as water. It was like a warm fire, warming Lin Shuran, making her gradually relax.
Silently, Liu Sanniang felt Lin Shuran’s fear.
Lin Shuran was beautiful and had always been one of the top ten beauties in the capital. During the new year, she felt that someone was peeping at her. That feeling made her feel uncomfortable.
It didn’t last long before it disappeared, so she thought that it was just her illusion.
However, after that, she sensed it a few more times. She was afraid and told Mrs. Lin about it.
Mrs. Lin hired more guards to patrol around the mansion.
However, Lin Shuran could still feel a pair of eyes staring at her, but the maidservants couldn’t see anything. She was so frightened that she kept crying.
Mrs. Lin found a Daoist priest to exorcize evil, but it was useless. Later, Mrs. Lin invited Su Yanyu over. Su Yanyu said that he believed Lin Shuran, but he couldn’t help her.
The thing that made Lin Shuran break down happened last night. At night, she was woken up by the feeling of being stared at again, but this time was different. She felt that someone was staring at her right next to the bed. She was frightened out of her wits. Just as she was about to call the maidservant, a hand covered her mouth.
She was so frightened that she started to sob. She could clearly feel the hand moving down her neck and about to enter her clothes. Although it disappeared for some reason in the end, she was still terrified. No one could help her. She knew what was going to happen in the days to come. If she could be touched and stared at freely, sooner or later, she would lose her innocence.
How could she explain herself if she lost her innocence?
Who would believe that an invisible person had taken her innocence. If her parents found out, they would only feel that she had brought disgrace to the family.
