Chapter 771: I will take revenge
"However, I cannot say the same about her." Bai Meiyue stared at Bai Xue, whose nails were digging into her palms. If not for the fact that she couldn’t kill Bai Feng without dragging her and her child down with her, she would have given up everything to kill Bai Xue. letting this woman live was like allowing a ticking bomb to clock next to her head. It was much better to kill her when she still had the time to.
She curled one side of her lips and stated in a cold voice, "Anyway, if you want me to cooperate with you, then you have to hand her head over to me. If not, then you can forget all about it."
"Yueyue," Bai Feng’s voice was pleading as he stopped throwing the electric spears at the wave of zombies. He turned and faced Bai Meiyue before saying in a quiet voice, "Tell me, will you refuse the request of a dying person?" He was also tied with an oath that he had made; how could he break it? Chu Xia had begged him to let Bai Xue live, that too at the cost of her own life; how could he let her die?
"If the one who made the request was Chu Xia? Of course I will."
Bai Meiyue sneered coldly. She was looking at Bai Xue with killing intent clear in her eyes. This woman was the one who had taken her child away, and she was still alive while her son was played like a test specimen. How could she be willing to accept this?
Bai Feng noticed the hatred in Bai Meiyue’s eyes and saw that it was simply uncontrollable. He couldn’t understand why Bai Meiyue hated Bai Xue so much that she wanted the woman to die. Bai Xue had suffered so much at Bai Meiyue’s hands; their grievances should have been sorted out, right?
If only Bai Feng knew the truth!
Bai Meiyue noticed the man looking at her. She swiftly turned to look at him and said in a cold voice, "I knew you were a fool, Bai Feng. but I never knew you that you would be played like a fool in the hands of someone like Chu Xia. do you think that Chu Xia was apologising to you because she was truly regretful of what she did to you? Of what she had done to us in the past? No! That woman was heartless to begin with; the only person she cared for is the one kneeling next to you. Who do you think you are for her to care?"
"You are not a child, Bai Feng. It’s not like you cannot understand what the actions of your stepmother meant. She was cunning when we were young and she was still just as cunning as ever when she died. She gave up on her life because she knew that you had run out of patience when it comes to Bai Xue. She was worried that you would abandon her daughter. You know very well that Chu Xia would do anything for her daughter. She gave up on her life and said those heartfelt words to you just because she wanted to wash away the crimes that Bai Xue had done."
"You want to cooperate? Let me ask you, Bai Feng. whose fault is it that we are trapped in this place? If this idiot hadn’t tried to find refuge with Yu Miaomiao, would we all be in this situation? No. Lei Qian and I are trapped here because of her; you are trapped because of her. So you better not offer me a stupid cooperation talk."
Bai Meiyue was not fooled by the sleek talk that Luo Jingguo was handing to her. Even though they were trapped in this situation, Bai Meiyue was not going to let anyone play her by the nose. Why did they come here? Because of Bai Xue. It was she who got caught and ended up dragging her family and Bai Feng down with her. If not, how could they be trapped in this situation?
What kind of virtue did Bai Xue have? Did Bai Meiyue even need to speak about it? This woman turned a blind eye to the suffering of her own mother; she watched her die and yet the first thing she did was to save her own life. even when Bai Feng chose Chu Xia, Bai Xue rushed forward and asked him to save her and abandon Chu Xia. If not for Bai Xue, then there was a good chance that Chu Xia might still be alive. It was all because of Bai Xue and her rash actions that the woman had to give up on her life.
And Chu Xia using her own life to tie Bai Feng and Bai Xue together was a rather clever scheme. Did Chu Xia really feel something for Bai Feng at her last moments? No, she didn’t. She didn’t care about him in the least. The only reason she sacrificed her life was to make Bai Feng Bai Xue’s shield. In this life, unless Bai Feng died, there was no way anyone could kill Bai Xue.
Bai Meiyue was not the only one who could see this; everyone else could see it too.
Bai Feng lowered his head when he heard Bai Meiyue’s words; he wanted to say something. To try and retort but he couldn’t do it. Because he knew what Bai Meiyue said was the truth!
His heart felt cold when he thought about how Chu Xia had used her own life to safeguard Bai Xue. Someone who didn’t even care about her mother.
Bai Meiyue watched the man lowering his head, and snorted. If not for Bai Xue, this man could have climbed to greater heights, but Bai Feng was so silly that he allowed the Bai family to bully him left and right. Bai Meiyue understood her half-brother, but she didn’t agree with him. In her eyes, Chu Xia had never done anything for them. At least, she had never given them any kind of happiness that would warrant Bai Feng giving up his entire life to protect Bai Xue.
