Chapter 375: Mother, Why Are You So Agitated?
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
“Mother, sorry to keep you waiting. 1 pay my respects to you.” Yu Linlang walked over and stood in front of Song Lingyun.
Song Lingyun jolted and suddenly came back to her senses. She looked at her daughter and immediately frowned. She said bluntly, “I haven’t seen you in a few days. Why have you become so fat?”
No woman in the world liked to be pointed at the nose and told that she was fat. Yu Linlang snorted in dissatisfaction and reached out to touch her pregnant stomach. “Mother, I’m now a concubine of Prince Zhao’s Estate. I’m the biological mother of the future heir. I’m pregnant, so I’m naturally not like before.”
As she spoke, Yu Linlang couldn’t help but observe her body.
She had to admit that she was indeed a little fatter than before…
However, she was also controlling herself. She only ate three meals a day usually, so she shouldn’t have gained much weight, right?
Song Lingyun realized that she had said something wrong and coughed awkwardly. “I was just saying it casually. 1 came today mainly to ask you what you think is happening at the General’s Mansion?”
“Since Aunt married into the Shen family, her corpse should have been handled by the Shen family. It has nothing to do with us,” Yu Linlang said disapprovingly.
Song Lingyun panicked. “How can you say that? It’s not right for the Shen family to touch your aunt’s coffin…!”
“Mother, why are you so agitated?” Yu Linlang frowned and looked at Song Lingyun, feeling that her reaction was a little abnormal.
Song Lingyun’s hands, hidden in her sleeves, trembled non-stop.
A voice in her heart kept warning her not to reveal any clues, no matter what.
She couldn’t let anyone discover her secret. Even if Yu Linlang was her biological daughter, she couldn’t take the risk!
“I’m doing this for your own good. You were raised in the General’s Mansion since you were young. Now that you’re married, you naturally have to care about the Shen family. Otherwise, if you don’t do anything after such a big thing happened to the Shen family, others will think that you have no conscience!” Song Lingyun was silent for a long time before saying this.
When Yu Linlang heard this, she felt that it made sense. “Alright… Then I’ll go to the General’s Mansion tomorrow and ask them what they want to do.”
“Remember to tell me when you come back,” Song Lingyun said.
Yu Linlang felt that Song Lingyun was a little abnormal from the bottom of her heart, but she didn’t continue asking.
As night fell, the lights began to turn on.
Time flowed like water. In the middle of the night, dozens of a.s.sa.s.sins in black held scimitars in their hands. Like ghosts active in the night, they quietly climbed over the wall of the General’s Mansion and successfully sneaked in.
The General’s Mansion was heavily guarded. When the guards saw the killers, they quickly went forward, but they were still a step too late.
The a.s.sa.s.sins were already prepared. When they saw the guards, they released poisonous smoke at the same time.
The guards were caught off guard and inhaled the poisonous smoke. All of them rolled their eyes and fell to the ground in pain. They could only watch helplessly as the a.s.sa.s.sins continued deeper into the General’s Mansion.
These people seemed to have gotten used to it long ago. Instead of taking a detour, they went straight to the backyard, where their families were!
There was no one in the small courtyard all year round. However, today was different from the past. Song Lanyue’s coffin and corpse were placed in the ice room in the courtyard.
The killers seemed to have known this information long ago. They were familiar with the way and rushed towards the door of the ice room.
Bang!
However, before these killers could barge into the door of the ice room, the door was kicked open from the inside..
