Chapter 62 Using a borrowed knife to kill someone, very useful.
Chu Nan returned to the dilapidated house, filled with resentment and a damp, rotten smell.
Looking at the mottled and peeling walls, she felt even more aggrieved. If it weren't for Chu Ruohan's scheme, she wouldn't have been caught in bed with someone else, and Gu Chengyan wouldn't have despised her.
She was clearly capable of marrying Gu Chengyan as a concubine.
Thinking of how Chu Ruohan was surrounded by people flattering and fawning over her today, she felt extremely resentful.
"What a great opportunity! Chu Yueshu was about to be ruined, but that bitch Chu Ruohan ruined it!" Chu Nanxin muttered to himself, his hands clenched so tightly that his knuckles turned white.
Her relationship with Chu Ruohan has reached a point of no return.
Chu Nanxin took a deep breath, trying to calm herself down.
Even Gu Chengyan's mother was driven insane by Chu Ruohan and is now locked up in that dark and gloomy mental hospital.
Her eldest sister is truly shrewd and calculating; I used to underestimate her when I was younger.
Chu Nanxin paced back and forth in the room. She had a habit of pacing around the room whenever she was upset.
Her footsteps repeatedly rubbed against the blue bricks on the ground, making a soft "rustling" sound.
Marquis Anyang has three sons, so why should the position of heir apparent fall to that paralyzed man?
Chu Nanxin knew Gu Chengyan's inner frustration and longing, and guessed that he must be obsessed with the position of heir apparent.
Otherwise, Gu Chengyan would not have instructed her to announce Chu Yueshu's abduction at the banquet where many guests were gathered.
Thinking of this, Chu Nan harbored thoughts of pleasing the man.
If Gu Junze can be brought down, the position of heir apparent might fall into Gu Chengyan's hands.
By then, when she has given birth to Gu Chengyan's eldest son, the position of the heir apparent's wife will be hers for the taking.
Gu Chengyan's mother was once the concubine of the Marquis of Anyang, and later she also became the Marquis's wife.
As dawn broke, Chu Nanxin, who had been awake all night, still had bloodshot eyes, but the hatred in his heart burned ever brighter.
Determined not to sit idly by and wait for her fate, she hurriedly got up and went to Aunt Bao's residence.
As soon as Chu Nan stepped into the Purple Bamboo Pavilion, he was stung by the exquisite courtyard before him.
The carved window frames and exquisite corridors exude luxury in every detail.
Baoling used to be a lowly maid in the Chu family. How could she be worthy of living in such a nice place?
But she, the third young lady of the Chu family, had to live a miserable life in that dilapidated house!
Ever since Aunt Bao was bitten by a snake, her once beautiful face has become hideous and terrifying.
She consulted many doctors, all of whom shook their heads and sighed, saying that the wound had penetrated into her muscles and that it was a stroke of luck that she had survived. They said that it was impossible for her to regain her former appearance.
Marquis Anyang felt disgusted at the sight of her and had no affection for her whatsoever. Even the power to manage the household fell into the hands of Aunt Zhao.
After falling out of favor, her former glory faded, and she stayed indoors all day, never going out.
Xiao Tao walked in and cautiously reported, "Auntie, Chu Tongfang has arrived."
Ever since Aunt Bao's face was disfigured, her temper has become unpredictable.
At this moment, she was tightly clutching a jade hairpin, which was a gift from the Marquis in the past.
Upon hearing Xiao Tao's words, her eyes instantly sharpened, and her hand tightened suddenly. The tip of the jade hairpin pierced her palm, and blood seeped out, but she seemed completely unaware of the pain.
"Who is Chu Tongfang? I've never heard of her before."
In an instant, all sorts of thoughts flashed through her mind. Could it be that the Marquis of Anyang has recently taken another young and beautiful concubine?
“Aunt Bao, this Chu Tongfang used to be the third young lady of the Chu family, and later the third young master took her as a concubine.”
Upon hearing this, Aunt Bao's lips curled into a slightly mocking smile. So it was Chu Nanxin, that girl.
When she was Chu Ruohan's maid, she always felt that Chu Nanxin's behavior was affected and pretentious.
Now that she has taken the initiative to come to her door, Aunt Bao is somewhat surprised and curious. What exactly is she up to?
She said coldly, "Let her in." Her voice was devoid of any emotion.
When Chu Nanxin entered, Aunt Bao had already adjusted her posture. She leaned against the couch, covering most of her face with a handkerchief, leaving only her eyes visible as she stared intently at Chu Nanxin.
Seeing Bao Ling's disheveled appearance, Chu Nanxin was secretly delighted; this was truly a godsend!
Just as she was about to speak, Aunt Bao suddenly interrupted her: "Oh, who do we have here? Isn't this the third young lady of the Chu family? Now she's become the third young master's concubine, she certainly knows how to climb the social ladder."
His words were full of sarcasm and disdain.
Chu Nan felt a surge of resentment in his heart, but still forced a smile on his face: "Aunt Bao, look at what you're saying. You and I were once master and servant, and I've come here today to have a word with you."
As she spoke, she casually found a stool and sat down.
“Speak?” Aunt Bao sneered. “Are you here to make a fool of myself?” With that, she flung the handkerchief aside, revealing her terrifying face, as if trying to intimidate Chu Nanxin.
Chu Nan was startled, but quickly calmed down.
"Why does your face look like this?" Chu Nanxin frowned, looking worried. "My elder sister is really something. She knew that the Lady of the Marquis was going to release snakes to harm people, and everyone in Hongmeng Academy was prepared. Why didn't she come to inform you?"
Chu Nanxin seemed to have thought of something again, covered her mouth, and looked like she couldn't say anything.
She lowered her eyes slightly, concealing the smugness in them, and secretly glanced at Aunt Bao's expression out of the corner of her eye.
Aunt Bao's body stiffened noticeably, her hands clenched into fists involuntarily, and her already frightening face became even more clouded with gloom.
Seeing this, Chu Nanxin was secretly delighted that her plan had succeeded, but she still pretended to be concerned and continued, "It's a pity that such a beautiful face is ruined like this..."
As she spoke, she sighed softly, but a hint of cunning flashed in her eyes.
Upon hearing this, Aunt Bao's body trembled violently, and the terrifying scene involuntarily flashed through her mind.
While asleep, he was attacked by a venomous snake without any warning, and rolled on the ground in agony, crying for help...
And that child, he consulted several doctors who took his pulse, and they all said it was a symptom of miscarriage.
Now, instigated by Chu Nanxin, old and new grudges intertwined, and the hatred in his heart for Chu Ruohan was instantly ignited like a volcanic eruption, and his eyes became fierce.
Aunt Bao's breathing became rapid, her chest heaving violently; she was unwilling to accept this...
Chu Ruohan, you bitch...
Why did she hurt me like this?
Seeing that the time was right, Chu Nanxin gently patted Aunt Bao's hand, seemingly to comfort her, but actually to add fuel to the fire: "Alas, my elder sister has changed now. She is now the wife of the heir apparent, and she can do whatever she wants in the mansion. She doesn't even recognize me, her younger sister."
Having said what needed to be said, Chu Nanxin got up to take her leave.
Baoling, don't let me down!
