Mu Qingyao pulled the corners of her mouth into a smile, “Just enjoy your last moments here quietly. You won’t die for a while, but I will lock the door tightly. Oh, useless thing, you only know how to have a temper and live a life of incompetence— but if you become bankrupt in the end, what is the point of keeping you alive if I can’t count on you at all?”
After Mu Qingyao finished speaking, she turned and left the study, closing and locking the door behind her.
After doing this, she went back to the room and entered the bathroom. She washed her hands and the dagger indifferently before changing into her school uniform.
She also deliberately chose a few specific things to place in her backpack. Before she left, she even sprayed a whiff of perfume.
She put the dagger in the pocket of her coat.
Since when did you become this way?
She couldn’t answer her own question.
She knew she no longer had a good future but she was aware that she couldn’t live a hard life as well. The parents of the Mu family no longer cared about her and the marriage contract was no longer valid. She guessed that she probably couldn’t even go to school any longer, could she?
Who else could she rely on? Mu Qingyi? He had got himself to take care of before it came to her needs.
Envy.
Jealousy.
How could Xu Xinduo leave the Mu family yet thrive so well?
There were even magazines with Xu Xinduo on the cover pages on her bookshelf. Xu Xinduo was so dazzling— as long as she looked beautiful, she could do anything! The more she compared herself with the real daughter of the Mu family, the more she could taste the bitter irony on her tongue as she felt herself growing even more frustrated by the second.
Why did she have to go through this? If she lived an ordinary life all along, perhaps she wouldn’t have felt this annoyed.
It was precisely because she had it all that made her this way. Everything that was once considered hers was stripped away from her— that made her as twisted as she was now.
If her life wasn’t going to get better, and if she wasn’t going to have a future, then they might as well perish together!
She could only attack once when she arrived at the school; that would be because the others would gang up on her or take measures after that. She studied both piano and dance, but she only knew the basics of self-defence. If she had known that this would be her outcome, she would have learned about it more. At least she could beat people up when she was angry and it could also come in handy in times like now.
She could only rely on the element of surprise.
Who should this blade be given to?
Shen Zhuhang? Li Xinning? Xu Xinduo?
Oh… would Xu Xinduo feel even worse if she saw Tong Yan hurt?
Shen Zhuhang was a heartless person. Even if something happened to Li Xinning, he would only suffer for a few days before moving on to find another girl.
Tong Yan and Xu Xinduo were different— if one of them was gone, the other would go crazy.
When leaving the Mu mansion, she deliberately locked the doors of the house. After locking all of them, she walked around outside to check the doors and windows, making sure that they were strong and unhinged before leaving.
She had no personal driver, so she could only find a way to go to school by herself.
After walking to the gates of the villa, she took out her mobile phone to book a ride. After sitting in the car, she checked the items in her bag again. If she could bring these items over with her, they would come in handy in confinement as they were necessities.
Mu Qingyao was wearing a coat and hat. She walked into the school with her head down and was not too conspicuous.
