Tyrannical Tycoon Haunts Me Relentlessly-Chapter 493: He Also Has His Lonely Moments 13
The Young Clan Leader was dumbfounded on the spot, wondering how this newlywed couple suddenly...
However, why did he himself feel a bit feverish?
Ever since the window was closed, he always felt his body temperature rising, unsure if it was because there was no air circulation.
Now seeing Gu Beicheng and his new bride affectionate, a rush of blood surged to his head, suddenly, he wanted to find Anna...
Anyway, this situation was very awkward.
The Young Clan Leader was a bit fired up, yet still very angry. Were they or were they not going to help him?
Suddenly, he stood up, wanting to walk out with somewhat disordered steps, but then he heard Gu Beicheng’s deep voice: "Open the windows."
Afterwards, he picked up Xia Yinian and quickly headed towards the door.
Gu Beicheng already knew there was something wrong with the flower scent; with his physical condition, the effects of ordinary medicine were always diminished.
Moreover, the smell of this medicine had already dissipated a lot, and now, it had even less impact on him.
The Young Clan Leader seemed to realize something too, immediately went to open all the doors and windows.
Xia Yinian had only just stepped out and immediately regained consciousness.
She grabbed hold of Gu Beicheng’s clothes, urgently saying: "It’s just as I thought, it’s this again! We’ve been framed!"
Her ’we’ didn’t mean just Anna was framed, but ’we’.
Gu Beicheng was feeling complex emotions and turned back to look at the Young Clan Leader.
After coming out, the heat the Young Clan Leader felt dissipated in an instant, and things seemed to clear up.
...
It turned out, the culprit was Anna’s older sister, Qina.
Although Qina didn’t say much, there wasn’t much that needed to be said about such matters.
Anna pleaded for mercy on behalf of Qina, and coupled with the fact that tonight was the wedding feast and Gu Beicheng, the distinguished guest was present, the Clan Leader didn’t pay much attention and let her off lightly.
The Young Clan Leader asked for Anna’s forgiveness, and the two of them finally completed their wedding.
Everyone was joyous; Gu Beicheng and Xia Yinian stayed, and Gu Beicheng drank quite a lot.
Xia Yinian’s mood remained a bit somber all the while, even when Anna and the Young Clan Leader came to present her with a toast of thanks, she only managed to force a slight smile.
After their departure, she drank quite a lot on her own.
Gu Beicheng was invited by the Clan Leader to drink with everyone, while Xia Yinian slightly tipsy, made an excuse to tell Ah Qiman that she needed to go back to rest.
It should have been Ah Qiman personally escorting her back, and afterwards, she stayed alone in the villa. 𝓯𝓻𝒆𝙚𝒘𝓮𝙗𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝒍.𝙘𝓸𝙢
Lying on the bed in her room, looking out at the bleak night from the floor-to-ceiling window, she didn’t know what she was thinking, but she knew, her mood was really down.
Anna’s name had been cleared, and she was finally united with the man she loved, which should have been a happy occasion.
But why was she so sad?
If it hadn’t been for her running into her today, would Anna have been cleared of injustice? If it wasn’t for her barbaric intervention, forcibly imposing her will, would Anna now have been subjected to the punishment of the Min Liu River?
During dinner, Ah Qiman had explained to her that now the savage fatal practice of drowning was no longer used.
The current Min Liu River punishment simply involved soaking in the river water for three days and three nights.
But, with so many lost souls in the Min Liu River from the past, spending three days and three nights in it might leave one mentally disturbed out of fright even if they survived in the end.
Even if there were no consequences in the end, having undergone the punishment of the Min Liu River, one could never hold their head high again.
What’s the point of living like that?
