Chapter 220 1 Everything has changed
The pain she imagined did not come, and the dagger she stabbed at herself with all her strength was blocked.
Ye Lingqiu looked at her with a half-smile: "Want to fake your death?"
Shen Yitian narrowed her eyes: "What do you mean?"
"There are too many strange things on your body. Even if you die now, I will think you are faking your death. I will transport you back to the Forty-Eight Village to examine your body carefully." Ye Lingqiu answered calmly, but his eyes were so cold and vicious that one could make one's scalp tingle at the sight of them.
Shen Yitian shuddered: "You are a lunatic."
"I never said it wasn't true. Haven't you always felt that the people in the Forty-Eight Villages were not good people? Why are you surprised now?" Ye Lingqiu chuckled.
Shen Yitian stopped talking.
Yes, the leader of the Forty-Eight Villages, she actually expected him to be a good person.
"How about giving this thing to me?" Ye Lingqiu turned the small pistol in his hand, as if he was negotiating, or giving orders.
Shen Yitian specially stockpiled that small pistol for herself. She relied on it to escape danger almost every time she was in danger along the way.
But now, it is about to be plundered by the boss.
"Ms. Shen, those treasures can probably buy more than just this thing you have." Ye Lingqiu brought up the treasures she found on the island.
Shen Yitian said, "That's not necessarily true. Treasures are rare but can be found. But you won't be able to find this thing of mine anywhere."
Ye Lingqiu wanted to refute, but Shen Yitian said, "Besides, those things were originally ownerless. How can you say they are yours?"
"Why?" Ye Lingqiu laughed again, as if Shen Yitian was so funny.
"Why do you think the bandits need to explain to you?"
Well, who would want to hear a bandit explain why?
However, Shen Yitian was not going to give in.
If so much treasure were really given to the Forty-Eight Villages, who knows how much they would expand their sphere of influence and how much food, fodder and soldiers they would store.
"You can't get the things out. To tell you the truth, even if you kill me and dissect my body, you still can't get those things."
Her eyes were firm and didn't seem to be intimidating. Ye Lingqiu stared at her for a long time before retracting the dagger in his hand.
"You are so fearless of death, it seems you do have a backup plan." Ye Lingqiu said.
Shen Yitian: ...
She has no backup plan at all, it's just her life that's in tatters.
It turns out that only after being put in a desperate situation can there be a way to survive.
The two people seemed to have reached some kind of tacit understanding, and Ye Lingqiu put away everything in his hand.
He said he wanted her small pistol, but he also took the dagger.
Shen Yitian looked at the small pistol in his hand with a dark look in her eyes.
If she remembered correctly, there were less than three bullets in the pistol.
As long as there are no bullets, this gun will become a piece of scrap metal after three shots.
She still has a lot of bullets in her space, but without the gun, her bullets will become scrap metal.
What a lose-lose situation.
The corners of her mouth twitched slightly.
After putting away his things, Ye Lingqiu opened the door.
Outside, Shen Zhuohang was still standing there.
When she saw Shen Zhuohang, Shen Yitian subconsciously avoided his gaze.
When facing Ye Lingqiu, she can fight back, go crazy, and even commit suicide without any psychological pressure.
But when facing Shen Zhuohang, she felt a little guilty.
After all, he was occupying the body of Shen Zhuohang's biological sister.
If she hadn't transmigrated into the book, the original owner might still be alive now, and the two siblings might still be able to meet.
However, the original novel did not describe this brother-sister relationship, and she was not sure whether the original owner had seen the Shen family again after being exiled.
Ye Lingqiu left, but Shen Zhuohang did not rush in.
He just stood outside the door and looked at Shen Yitian until she lowered her eyes guiltily...
When I looked up again, that cheap second brother was gone.
Shen Yitian felt empty inside.
How could she not feel lost when her brother, who had been talking to her in the morning, became so distant now?
It wasn't that she coveted the Shen family's money. The treasures in her space were enough for her to live a good life. What she wanted was the favor of the Shen family father and son.
It was her father who rushed to find her despite his grief upon learning she was missing. It was her brother who clamored to avenge her whenever she suffered the slightest injustice.
From today on, she probably won't have these things anymore.
She didn't know what Shen Zhuohang was going to do. If she determined that she was a monster that had taken over her sister's body, she would probably have more trouble in the future.
Rubbing her head in annoyance, Shen Yitian couldn't help but blame Ye Lingqiu for everything.
It's all because of that bandit leader that she is so passive.
She sat in the room in a depressed mood until dark, and even when Shengsheng came back, she didn't let Shengsheng in.
After all, the girl was bought by the Shen family, and she had no choice if Shen Zhuohang wanted to take her away.
Unless she buys this girl from the Shen family.
Unfortunately, her space was closed and would not be open for a few days. The money she had left was barely enough to keep herself fed for a few days, not enough to buy a girl.
I was walking around the room in a state of distraction when suddenly someone knocked on the door.
"Miss, it's dark now, why don't you light the lamp?" Shengsheng asked a little worriedly.
She didn't know what had happened, she only knew that when she came back from outside, her mistress refused to see her.
She was still a little panicked, wondering if she had done something wrong to make the young lady unhappy?
Shen Yitian said softly that it was okay, but she felt a little aggrieved in her heart.
Shengsheng asked again: "Well, Miss, don't you want to eat? It's getting dark, it's time for dinner."
She, a maid, has already had dinner, but the young lady is still not eating. Is this reasonable?
Shen Yitian had no appetite at the moment. Things happened too suddenly and she was not prepared.
Shengsheng was still trying to persuade her, but she didn't say anything until she heard Shen Zhuohang's voice from outside.
"No matter what, we have to eat first." Shen Zhuohang said in a low voice.
Shen Yitian's tears suddenly began to well up again.
"Second brother." she called out.
There was silence outside for a moment before Shen Zhuohang agreed, "Second brother is here."
She didn't know what was going on in her heart, and she almost ran to open the door.
Shen Zhuohang was standing outside and smiled when he saw her open the door.
It's as if nothing happened.
"No matter how unhappy you are, you must eat. If you skip a meal, your father will be worried when he hears about it back in the capital, and you won't be able to eat for the whole day." Shen Zhuohang frowned and pretended to scold.
Shen Yitian's heart trembled, and she asked softly, "Is Dad really still worried about me?"
She's a fake.
"Of course I'm worried." Shen Zhuohang replied immediately, "You're the apple of his eye. If he's not worried about you, who would he be worried about?"
Shen Yitian sniffed, feeling very happy, but also a little greedy.
"So, what about you, second brother? Are you worried about me?"
