Beneath the parasol tree.
Qin Xin watched her own funeral with cold eyes.
Her cowardly mother would only weep, and the servants were fair-weather friends who turned cold the moment she died; she had long been mentally prepared for this.
But she had not expected that Qin Xiaoshuang, who was always cold and aloof, acting like a rebellious youth who never paid anyone any mind, would be the only one to defend her desperately after her death, refusing to believe the news of her passing and shedding hot, rolling tears upon seeing her blood-stained school uniform.
As for Qin Wenrou...
Qin Xin's gaze turned several degrees colder.
Seeing Qin Wenrou's hypocritical posturing with her own eyes was even more disgusting than she had imagined!
Indeed, the bystander sees most clearly.
Having left the Qin Family, she could see things much more clearly!
For a moment, she wanted to walk over, grab Qin Wenrou by the throat, and use a scalpel to slice open her heart to see if it was red or black!
But seeing Madam Qin sobbing uncontrollably, thinking of where the blood drained from her had gone back by the Ice Lake, and remembering that she was still wearing the original owner's face with its dark green birthmark... she closed her eyes, and the blade slowly retracted into her palm.
It didn't matter.
There was still time; she would play with them slowly.
She silently pulled open the back door and disappeared step by step into the dark night.
Behind her.
A breeze carried Qin Wenrou's coquettish voice: "Mom, I want Sister's bed... because I miss her so much... I don't mind that she used it, I just really like that red pear wood bed of hers..."
Qin Xin's expression was indifferent.
Sorry, you might not mind, but Sister does!

"That is Eldest Sister's bed, you are not allowed to touch it." Qin Xiaoshuang raised his tear-filled eyes and shot a wary look at Qin Wenrou.
Qin Wenrou: "Mom, just say yes to me..."
Madam Qin's heart softened, and she felt helpless under the pleading: "Let's talk about it after the funeral."
Qin Wenrou: "Mm-hmm, Mom, then I'll head back to school first. Finals are coming up, I need to study hard. I should be able to keep my spot as the top female student this time, and then I'll bring the first-class scholarship certificate home for you!"
Madam Qin was gratified: "Go on then."
Her handsome and capable eldest daughter was gone, but fortunately, she still had her thoughtful and obedient second daughter.
Qin Xiaoshuang, however, sneered: "Eldest Sister's certificates couldn't even fit in a dozen boxes; who cares about your pathetic certificate? Besides, do you have the ability to rank first in the whole school? Being the top girl means nothing, it's laughable."
Qin Wenrou: "Mom, look at how out of line Little Brother is getting."
Qin Xiaoshuang: "I'm out of line? What about you? You're not even acting like a human!"
Qin Wenrou: "You...!"
She clutched her chest, aggrieved: "If I stay here any longer, my heart condition will flare up. Mom, I'm going back to school."
She looked at the coffin boards scattered on the ground and the blood-stained school uniform, carefully walking around them.
She was busy answering a call: "Xiaochun, where were we just now?"
From the phone came Yu Xiaochun's excited accusations: "Wenrou, come back quickly! I heard that ugly toad is trying to seduce Senior again! She's even eating with him in the cafeteria! Does she think that just because her surname is Lan, she can get close to Senior..."
Qin Wenrou's eyelid twitched: "You're saying Lan Qingxin is eating with Senior?"
Yu Xiaochun described it vividly: "Yes, yes! You didn't see it, she looked so smug!"
Qin Wenrou pursed her lips and said in a generous tone: "Brother Jun said he was giving his notes and materials to a failing student to reference; so it was her. I believe Brother Jun just wants to help her out of pure kindness."
Yu Xiaochun sighed: "Wenrou, you are just too generous. You know, you're very easily taken advantage of like this! How could a bitchy, ugly freak like that ever let go of a guy as excellent as Senior?..."
