Chapter 716: Go For Broke

“I think my mother’s remains are not here, right? Or perhaps, her remains were once buried here, but then someone took them away, and the person who took her remains was him. Am I right?”

As she spoke, Zhao Jiong’s face changed dramatically, and he suddenly stood up from the ground: “How did you…” guess?

“Is it hard to guess?”

Liu Sisi looked at him with contempt: “You claim to have been so good to my mother, but do you really know what love is? How can someone who doesn’t understand love win my mother’s heart? And how can you compare to him?”

He knew who she was referring to, Zhao Jiong.

He stood there, dark and gloomy, glaring at Liu Sisi. In the blink of an eye, he put on a smile again: “You really are his seed. Even the way you speak is the same. It’s her who cheated on me and had you with him behind my back. She deserves to die! Deserves to die!”

Liu Sisi shook her head: “Zhao Jiong, you are so pathetic. You don’t recognize yourself, and you once had a woman who sincerely loved you but you pushed her away! And you even killed the woman you loved the most. Because you fundamentally don’t understand love!”

“Nonsense! What love? Can you eat that? Can it ensure you have a well-off life or put you in the position of power, just below one person and above everyone else?”

Zhao Jiong became more and more agitated: “You women, just want to take things that don’t belong to you under the guise of love! You act so noble and call it love. Ridiculous!”

In Liu Sisi’s eyes, there was only pity: “True love is about giving, not possessing. You, a selfish man, will never understand.”

Zhao Jiong suddenly became enraged: “How dare you scold me? Are you tired of living?”

A surge of anger rose in Liu Sisi’s heart: “What’s wrong with you? Do you want to kill again? You killed my brothers and my mother back then, and nearly killed me. Haven’t you killed enough?”

“Kill enough? I haven’t killed him yet. I haven’t avenged Xin’er. How could I have killed enough?” He advanced, reaching out to use his old tricks.

Liu Sisi was furious, and the flames of anger in her heart erupted.

“The one who killed my mother is you! You! You bastard, you talk of avenging her, but why don’t you go die yourself instead?”

In her mind, the sea of blood churned endlessly, overwhelming her, affecting her thoughts.

However, Zhao Jiong did not have a shred of anger. He slowly stepped over to Liu Sisi, his originally clear eyes filled with murderous intent. He shook his head gently.

“Tsk, tsk, she never spoke to me like this.”

“That’s why she died! She died at your hands, you damned bastard!”

She screamed in rage.

She wanted to control herself, but the sea of blood quickly engulfed her entire mind, spreading…

“Because she gave birth to your wicked spawn, she deserved to die!” Zhao Jiong’s face suddenly changed, and his entire person was shrouded in darkness.

“You took her by force, abused her, killed my brothers, and even killed your own children. You’re not human, you’re an animal! The mastermind is you! It’s you!” Liu Sisi shouted angrily, venting the overwhelming anger in her heart.

“Are you looking for death?”

Zhao Jiong stepped right in front of her and reached out to strangle her delicate neck.

She suddenly pulled out a dagger from behind her and slashed it across his hand, cutting a bloodstain. He cried out in pain, stepping back, his eyes locked on hers.

Her eyes were growing redder and redder, like two tear-filled bloodstains.

Her soul was awake.

Her body was crazy!

She seemed to be split into two people, watching herself transcendentally beside her.

“Do you know, she didn’t want wealth, honor, or a harem with thousands of women! What she wanted was actually very simple; a family living together peacefully and happily. But you destroyed even this simple wish, making you the one who deserves to die!”

The dagger in her hand emitted a cold glint, and the handle with one large and four small pearls shimmered.

“This dagger… was indeed the one from that time, right? Haha, Liu Sisi, do you want to take vengeance for your mother with this dagger?” Zhao Jiong’s mouth was full of mockery.

“No, you’re wrong! I didn’t plan to use this dagger to kill you.”

Instead, Liu Sisi shook her head, looking at him with pity: “Killing someone like you will only dirty my hands!”

Zhao Jiong obviously wasn’t expecting Liu Sisi to say that, and his face immediately turned sour.

“Then what are you pulling out the knife for? Do you want me to use it to finish you off?”

“Do you still have the strength to hold the knife? Zhao Jiong, you think you’re smart, but you don’t realize I’m not like you. Do you think I would make the same mistake twice?”

Zhao Jiong felt uneasy and retreated subconsciously. However, he stumbled and fell to the ground, unable to get up for quite a while.

“What’s the matter? I…my hands, my whole body…how come I have no strength? Did you…did you poison me?”

Liu Sisi held the dagger, slowly approaching him. She gazed at him from above, her eyes deep and complex, her gaze like the waters of autumn, her pity only increasing.

“Ever since I came up the hilltop, I’ve been standing upwind. Then, from the moment we started talking until now, it has been the time of two pots of tea. I waited this long for this very moment. How does it feel? Do you like the big gift I’ve given you?”

Zhao Jiong retreated silently while glancing around the area.

At that moment, he realized that he had switched places from the open space to the triangular corner where Liu Sisi had been trapped. He was trapped between advancing and retreating.

“What did you give me? What do you want to do?”

“Speaking of this medicine, I must thank you.”

Liu Sisi toyed with the dagger in her hand, a playful look in her eyes: “Didn’t you let Madam Thirteen assist me? With so many brothels in South Wind Pavilion under her command, how could there not be some good medicine? Without it, how could she deal with disobedient prostitutes and gigolos? What do you think?”

“You… you dare to give me that kind of poison? Good for you, Liu Sisi! Do you think that a mere poison like that can restrain me? How naive!”

Zhao Jiong struggled to get up from the ground angrily and charged toward her.

It didn’t look like he had been poisoned at all.
