Yu Qingjia was oblivious to his reaction, and continued to say, “It’s a pity that all that medicine spilled on the floor, and the maids were quick to clean it out. It would have been nice to get a small portion of it, I wonder what she actually added into it…”

“What’s so hard about that?”

Murong Yan said, “There will be plenty of opportunities later.”

Yu Qingjia disagreed, “She only adds something every time she serves medicine to Yu Laojun, since we missed it this time, it’s simply harder for us to find another opportunity in the future.”

Murong Yan shook his head, smiled, and didn’t say anything more.

When did he ever say that he was going to take it from Yu Laojun’s medicine?

The cold wind was blowing harshly, and in the blink of an eye they had reached the end of the long winding path.

After they turned another hallway, they finally reached the front of the second household’s gate.

The east is finally showing some light, and the road ahead is no longer invisible.

Murong Yan, who was walking silently in the alleyway, suddenly asked,

“Why did you even do this?”

“Huh? Oh, I want to find the opportunity to consume Yu Qingjia’s points. Yu Laojun was so sick for so long before, but yesterday she suddenly got better.” —YQJ

“So it can be seen that Yu Qingya’s points did run out at some point, and I didn’t know what method she used to gain more points back, but it did take her a while before she could give that medicine to Yu Laojun.” —YQJ

“I couldn’t find other methods to consume her points, if there were, they were too risky, and may also expose me. So I decided to take advantage of Yu Laojun’s illness to conceal myself, and also consume Yu Qingya’s points faster…” —YQJ

“I— I also want Yu Laojun to suffer a little so that she would at least know what it was like when they made my mother suffer back then.”—YQJ

“I wasn’t asking about that.”

Murong Yan interrupted Yu Qingjia’s rumbling, although his tone of voice was slow, but it was very forceful and could not be denied,

“You know what I’m talking about.”

Yu Qingjia paused for a long time, and after a while, she rested her forehead against Murong Yan’s shoulder and closed her eyes somewhat wearily,

“I—I just miss my mother.”

“It’s been five years since my mother passed away, but the people who harmed her back then are still alive and kicking. It was obviously Yu Laojun who was forcing her own way, and Madam Li who intervened between my parents, yet in the end, the only one who was hurt was my mother. What did my mother do wrong? Why did they do this to her? I just hate that I was too young back then, no matter what I did, I could not do anything. My mother died young, but Yu Laojun and Madam Li were left unpunished. Is there no justice in this world?”

Murong Yan did not answer, but both of them knew that— Yes, indeed… There was no justice in this world.

Good people do not necessarily have good rewards, and those who do evil are likely to be rich and prosperous for the rest of their lives.

Yu Qingjia wrinkled her nose, her nasal voice sounded heavy, and it seemed muffled in such a dim morning,

“Since heaven doesn’t come to punish them, then I will. Since Yu Laojun and Madam Li have not received any retribution for all their wrongdoings, then I will do it for them.”

Murong Yan felt a sudden coolness on his shoulders, and his heart was also soaked by this sudden moisture little by little, and he felt a gentle itchy pain coursing through it.

Murong Yan said, “This is not something a young girl like you should worry about, this should be Yu Wenjun’s responsibility.”

Yu Qingjia shook her head and said,

“My Mother told me to never put your hope into others, because everyone has entangled interests. No one will really put themselves into your shoes, no matter how good he is. My father is indeed very good to me, he is also sincere to my mother, but he is also the grandson of the Yu family, and the heir of the two households. Even if I begged my father to seek justice for my mother, he would justly reprimand Madam Li, and Yu Laojun, but I can not expect more from him. So what if Madam Li gets a scolding, she doesn’t really suffer much. Therefore, I’m the only one who is completely hell bent on this revenge.”

This reasoning is not difficult to understand, everyone has their own interests, so everyone looks at things from a different perspective.

This is the reason why you can not expect others to completely do justice for you.

Yu Wenjun may not be a good husband, but he is definitely a good father, and his dedication to Yu Qingjia is beyond reproach.

Of course he will protect Yu Qingjia from being bullied by others, but it would be impossible for Yu Wenjun to kill Yu Laojun and Madam Li.

It’s the same for her fighting the system.

This is also something that she should do herself.

After Yu Qingjia finished speaking, she was suddenly surprised to realize how she had talked so much to Murong Yan about this again?

As a child, secretly harboring the intention to kill her own father’s grandmother and his other wife is not something that could be taken lightly by anyone.

Yu Qingjia secretly reproached herself in her heart.

Had she lost her mind?

However, she suddenly heard a cold and languid voice in the blurred darkness, “What if that’s not the case?”

Yu Qingjia was taken aback for a moment, “What?”
