Chi Yueshan returned home in a huff.
Li Rong informed her that the Xi family hadn’t returned yet. Chi Yueshan didn’t say anything; she looked weary, the snow and sand outside had wet her outer robe, and her hair was damp.
She looked a little disheveled.
Li Rong: “Please take a bath first. I’ll inform you when Miss Xi returns.”
Then she realized she had been too talkative.
How could she possibly know the news before Chi Yueshan? They were lovers. Xi Zhoumeng had always seemed cold and indifferent, only paying attention to Chi Yueshan. Li Rong didn’t need to inform her.
But Chi Yueshan wasn’t that eager to wait for Xi Zhoumeng’s message.
She took out several books from her bag and asked Li Rong, “I heard Xi Zhoumeng say the house has a library, can I go take a look?”
Her bangs were wet, sticking to her forehead, but her smile was bright and enthusiastic, making Li Rong smile involuntarily.
The middle-aged housekeeper nodded, “Please follow me.”
Chi Yueshan didn’t speak much; she was flipping through books as she walked.
The Xi family’s estate was vast, with ancient castles and a cemetery nearby.
Because of its artistic merit, Chi Yueshan had seen an interview in a magazine about sculpture and architecture.
How could someone be so flamboyant even in death?
At that time, Chi Yueshan wasn’t that close to Xi Zhoumeng, she just thought about it.
I wonder if Xi Zhoumeng’s grave will have a statue of her, she’d probably supervise the construction, thinking that no statue would be as beautiful as herself.
Such a narcissistic woman.
But now her relationship was different, Chi Yueshan didn’t want to think about this.
She had met many people in her life, she had no attachment to her elders, and few companions.
Xi Zhoumeng wasn’t everything to her, but she considered her to be her life’s companion.
The Xi family’s collection was exceptionally rich, almost a thousand years of family accumulation.
Xi Li had renovated it a few years ago, finally getting rid of the need for candles.
The effect of turning on the lights was like lighting candles, one after another. The books were vast, and the digitalization was excellent.
Li Rong asked Chi Yueshan, “Do you need my help?”
Chi Yueshan: “I want to find information about the capital star, information about the planet’s formation…”
She flipped through the summary she made on the way back, “And information about ancient characters, like this.”
Most of the Xi family’s housekeepers were hereditary; Li Rong was an exception. She was a survivor Xi Mingguang rescued from the battlefield during the last Insect Race invasion.
Xi Zhoumeng had casually mentioned that Li Rong and Xi Mingguang’s previous Omega appeared at the same time.
The planet where Li Rong grew up had been conquered by the Insect Race; she was a person without a homeland.
Seeing her lack of reaction, Chi Yueshan saw Li Rong’s reddened eyes under the light and cautiously asked, “What’s wrong?”
Li Rong: “I’m sorry.”
She was highly trained, regaining her composure, “No need to search, I recognize these characters.”
The characters that even the holocom’s powerful network couldn’t find were very troublesome for Chi Yueshan.
She had wanted to ask Xi Zhoumeng for help, but she didn’t expect to find someone who recognized them here.
“You…”
Chi Yueshan was a little at a loss; she hated seeing people cry.
It was terrifying to see a cruel person cry, she didn’t dare imagine Xi Zhoumeng crying.
This person always looked like she was the most beautiful, even if the sky fell.
Li Rong: “I was saved by the previous Omega partner of Commander Xi, she had just met Commander Xi that year.”
Chi Yueshan said “oh,” thinking she shouldn’t ask more.
Li Rong: “Is there anything you need me to translate?”
Chi Yueshan handed the copied notes to Li Rong.
Li Rong’s face showed a hint of nostalgia. Touching the intricate characters, she said word by word——
“I found the Insect Race’s secret.”
“Their King is hidden…”
Li Rong paused, adding in astonishment, “In a human’s body.”
Chi Yueshan froze.
Her gaze fell on the untranslated second half, a bad feeling rising.
Li Rong gasped, astonished, “This… who gave this to you?”
Chi Yueshan thought of Zhou Fengqin’s gaze before her death, the temperature of her calloused hands.
And her unfinished words——
“Ultimately, this has nothing to do with me, I can’t change fate, but as long as Yueshan, you can grow up safely.”
“Those things…”
“Those things,” Chi Yueshan initially thought it was the mechanical shop.
Later, she thought it was the technology her master passed on to her.
Or her master’s past.
But now she suddenly understood what her master meant.
It was the strange characters in this tattered notebook.
She didn’t know how Zhou Fengqin knew, what she had experienced, and why she willingly stayed in the Lower World.
Was she trying to find the Insect Race’s base?
Was it because of her resentment at her lingering illness due to insect radiation?
Chi Yueshan suddenly hugged the notebook, she pursed her lips, “My master told me.”
Zhou Fengqin still had regrets; her eyes showed relief and reluctance when she died.
Suddenly, all the fragments of her childhood surged back. Chi Yueshan thought of her master’s smiling gaze when she sent her out to play.
She said girls should have fun at that age.
Chi Yueshan had angrily replied, “What about you?”
Zhou Fengqin smiled as if she had become much younger. Her dilapidated body leaned against the cold doorframe of the mechanical shop, the ceiling fan above blowing her hair.
She casually brushed it away, with a hint of youthful freedom.
“Your master, I, also danced with someone I liked back then.”
Chi Yueshan wouldn’t have believed it then, because she looked like a big slob, her hair like withered grass.
Insect radiation eroded her kidneys and skin; Chi Yueshan couldn’t imagine what her youth was like.
She only felt that her master looked a little messy.
“What is that person?”
Chi Yueshan refused to go to the dance hall. She tilted her head, her newly tattooed tattoo was itchy, a passionate youth in Zhou Fengqin’s eyes.
“She got married.”
She waved her hand, not wanting to talk, urging Chi Yueshan, “Go quickly, I’ve bought you tickets, no refunds.”
Chi Yueshan exclaimed, scolding, “You’re wasting money again, I can’t dance.”
Zhou Fengqin: “If you can’t dance, find someone to teach you? Yueshan has such a good figure, everyone likes her.”
Chi Yueshan felt this old woman was blind and blindly confident in her.
How could anyone like me?
Now someone likes me.
But Master is gone.
I wonder if Zhou Fengqin, if she were still alive, knowing that Chi Yueshan didn’t end up with Wen Xinghuo, whom she always talked about, but instead fell in love with a spoiled lady who didn’t look like an Alpha, would say Chi Yueshan was blind.
No, with Master’s personality…
She would probably approve.
After all, Zhou Fengqin was even more materialistic than Chi Yueshan, she loved those cliché CEO novels on Starnet.
Li Rong tactfully asked, “Should we tell Miss Xi about this?”
Chi Yueshan hummed, “I’ll tell her later. Can Manager Li help me find a few more books?”
“About mecha engineer licenses.”
Li Rong: “Okay.”
…
The palace banquet ended at midnight; the queen only appeared for an hour, half an hour of which was watching a performance.
Xi Zhoumeng’s seat allowed her to see the queen’s profile.
The veiled queen had a noble temperament, similar to previous queens.
She announced that she would reveal the heir’s identity next month and had chosen her spiritual guide.
Birth, old age, sickness, and death were still difficult problems to overcome.
No one could live forever.
But the queen seemed open about it, showing no attachment to the throne, only glancing at Sheng Xinggui and Sheng Yangkui.
Many guessed that Sheng Xinggui would be the heir.
Even Sheng Xinggui herself was apprehensive; Xi Zhoumeng saw her trembling hands.
She thought: This psychological quality.
Sheng Yangkui, sitting next to her, wasn’t as timid as usual, she calmly looked at the woman.
When the queen turned around, she gestured for Xi Zhoumeng to look at her hem.
Xi Zhoumeng followed her gaze, it was a shadowed area, the large-scale carvings above and the memorial pillar to the right forming a dark corner.
The performance was underway; even the faint light didn’t reach there.
Xi Zhoumeng felt goosebumps. She stepped on Wen Xinghuo’s foot.
Her high heels were made by Chi Yueshan, shaped like human spines, they hurt when stepping on someone. Wen Xinghuo groaned involuntarily and looked up.
The next second, she quickly bit her lip, preventing herself from making an impolite sound.
Ugh, this is really disgusting.
Their seats were well-chosen; those around them were focused on the stage, the Omega dancing beautifully.
The music and stage lights complemented each other; everyone marveled at the First Troupe’s performance.
Only Wen Xinghuo and Xi Zhoumeng felt like vomiting.
Xi Zhoumeng took out a handkerchief, using the scent to suppress her urge to curse.
Sheng Yangkui couldn’t see from that angle, how did she do it so precisely?
The next second, she realized.
Underneath that hem was clearly the queen’s body.
There was no doubt that the conditions for holding a palace banquet were perfect, and it was impossible for such a disgusting creature to appear.
Xi Zhoumeng couldn’t help but imagine the queen’s clothes were full of these things.
Is that even human?
She looked at Wen Xinghuo, wanting to ask what she had asked that day.
But Wen Xinghuo didn’t dare look at Xi Zhoumeng.
Xi Zhoumeng somehow understood.
Good heavens, she went to do something else.
Whatever, Chi Yueshan was also alluring that day, it was understandable.
But you were the protagonist who killed the queen! What is this now?
Indeed, when one is full, one thinks of lust, women can certainly affect the speed of one’s reaction.
Xi Zhoumeng silently scolded Wen Xinghuo, knowing she couldn’t do anything else today.
But her gaze kept drifting there, disgusted and disgusted once again.
Finally, when the palace banquet ended, she quickly went to vomit.
Wen Xinghuo’s face was also pale.
She saw the insect’s form, even feeling that it was alive.
In the crowd leaving, Sheng Yangkui and Sheng Xinggui were escorted away by servants.
Sheng Yangkui resisted looking at Wen Xinghuo. She bit her lip, thinking: Did she also find me disgusting back then?
Sheng Xinggui didn’t notice Sheng Yangkui’s expression; she was also uneasy. After arriving at the palace, she grabbed Sheng Yangkui’s hand and whispered, “Sister.”
The moment she spoke, Sheng Yangkui had a premonition of what Sheng Xinggui would say.
But Sheng Yangkui only raised her eyes silently, like the obedience after being bullied countless times over the years.
Because she couldn’t resist.
But she felt a subtle sense of pleasure at Sheng Xinggui’s helplessness.
Sheng Xinggui nervously paced the empty palace, her skirt trailing, making Sheng Yangkui dizzy.
“Do, do you want to be queen?”
Sheng Yangkui shook her head.
Sheng Xinggui: “I don’t want to either, but the queen looked at me just now… I really don’t want to… I like Shu Miao, I want to marry him.”
Her knight was also a noble. Sheng Yangkui felt their relationship was much better than Sheng Qiu Yu’s.
They were childhood sweethearts, deeply in love, but they also bullied Sheng Yangkui when they were young.
Sheng Yangkui thought she had forgotten, but now the memories surged back, filled with accumulated resentment.
She said calmly, “Then you can let him mark…”
“Shut up!”
Sheng Xinggui covered her face, tears streaming down, “Do you think I haven’t thought about it? He’s unwilling!”
“Sometimes I envy Qiu Yu, she had no choice, being queen is better than dying.”
Sheng Yangkui: “Isn’t being queen good? Everyone has to listen to you.”
Sheng Xinggui grabbed Sheng Yangkui’s shoulders, looking down at her, “If you think it’s good, why don’t you do it? Don’t we all know how painful it is to be queen?”
Sheng Yangkui knew, looking at the queen’s withered skin and body at less than thirty years old.
The royal family thought it was a curse.
Sheng Yangkui: “Then what does Sister want to do?”
She knew the ending, and she didn’t expect any kindness from her biological sister.
She didn’t have it when she was young, and she didn’t have it when she grew up.
She was always the control group, always lacking something.
Perhaps the queen chose her because of her hatred and desire.
Sheng Xinggui knelt down, her skirt like a blooming flower.
Sheng Yangkui: “You can follow Second Sister, it’s not a big deal to go to the Lower World.”
“Look at those from the Lower World in our academy, aren’t they living well?”
Compared to power, most people chose to survive.
Sheng Yangkui lowered her eyes, thinking they had a choice, after all, they had knights.
My knight, will kill that thing with me.
Sheng Xinggui: “What about you?”
Sheng Yangkui: “Then I’ll find an Alpha to mark me?”
Sheng Xinggui: “No.”
Sheng Yangkui smiled, “Didn’t you think it over? Sister.”
Again and again, pushing me into the abyss.
…
Xi Zhoumeng almost vomited on the way back.
If they didn’t know she was half Alpha, Xi Li might have worried she was pregnant.
Only the two of them were in the car. Xi Li asked, “What’s wrong with you? You wouldn’t be pregnant with little Yueshan’s child, would you?”
Xi Zhoumeng was too tired to retort.
She opened her holocom and saw the many messages Chi Yueshan sent.
Her mood improved.
She took a picture of her tear-stained face.
