Chapter 302 Su Wan'er's Attempt to Harm Huai Jin
Inside the Ninth Prince's mansion, Lin Qianqian's room was deathly silent and empty. Little Huaijin lay alone on the bed, his innocent cries echoing in the empty room, sounding utterly helpless.
Su Wan'er stood silently by the bed, her shadow enveloping the baby on the bed.
Her eyes gleamed with a chilling light, like the gaze of a hungry wolf in the dead of night. A twisted smile played on her lips, devoid of any warmth. She clutched a pillow tightly in her hand, her knuckles turning white from the force.
She leaned down, staring intently at little Huaijin, and murmured, "As long as you're still in this world, Jincheng will never receive exclusive favor. Only when you're gone will the Prince shower all his love on Jincheng, and only then can my son and I gain a foothold in this palace. Don't blame me for being heartless; blame yourself for being born into the wrong family." With that, she slowly raised the pillow in her hand and pressed it down on little Huaijin's small body.
She held the pillow high in her hands, trembling slightly from the effort, every muscle tense, as if she were engaged in a life-or-death struggle.
Immediately afterwards, she slammed the pillow down hard, covering Xiao Huaijin's face tightly.
Little Huaijin's loud cries were abruptly cut off, leaving only weak, intermittent sobs.
His little body writhed desperately in his swaddling clothes, his two tiny hands waving helplessly and scratching wildly in the air, trying to push away this deadly pressure.
Su Wan'er looked at Xiao Huaijin's struggling appearance without a trace of pity on her face. Instead, a twisted pleasure appeared on her face. She curled her lips into a ferocious smile and said in a low voice, "Cry, but it's no use crying anymore. Today is your death day!"
The carved wooden door was suddenly flung open with a piercing creak. Huan'er's hair was disheveled, a few strands of hair stuck to her flushed cheeks with sweat, her chest heaving as she gasped for breath.
Her eyes were wide open, filled with panic and anxiety. Her once bright eyes were now filled with fear. As soon as she entered the room, she saw Su Wan'er tightly covering Xiao Huaijin with a pillow.
"No—" Huan'er let out a piercing scream and rushed towards the bedside like a madwoman. Her steps were unsteady, but she did not slow down at all, desperately lunging at Su Wan'er and grabbing Su Wan'er's arm tightly. Due to the excessive force, the two of them swayed.
Huan'er knelt down with a thud, her hands tightly gripping Su Wan'er's legs, her nails turning white from the force. She looked up, tears streaming down her face, her voice trembling with sobs, almost pleading: "Your Highness, you can't do this! Please stop! The young prince is still so young! He's innocent!"
Su Wan'er was filled with anger and impatience. She turned her head sharply, glared at Huan'er, and shouted, "What are you doing! Let go! Mind your own business! Get out of my way!"
As she spoke, she forcefully swung her arms, trying to break free from Huan'er's pull. The veins on her neck bulged, and her face was distorted with emotion.
Huan'er, however, still clung tightly to Su Wan'er's clothes with both hands. She looked up, her face streaked with tears, her eyes filled with fear and pleading, her voice trembling and urgent: "Your Highness, you really can't do this! If the Prince finds out, he won't forgive you!"
Upon hearing this, Su Wan'er seemed to be completely enraged. A fierce glint flashed across her face, and she cursed, "You lowly servant! If you don't tell and I don't tell, who will know who killed him? Get out of here! For Jincheng's happiness, this little beast must die!" As she spoke, she raised her foot to kick Huan'er away.
Huan'er stumbled from the kick, but quickly rushed forward, crying out, "Jincheng... he's in trouble!"
Upon hearing this, Su Wan'er froze instantly. Her previously twisted and fierce expression vanished, replaced by a look of terror. Her eyes widened, her mouth slightly agape, and she asked incredulously, "What did you say!"
