The Fourth Lady

Granny Ruo never expected that Qingyan would mention these things at a time like this, and that everything was nothing like how she'd imagined.

What she'd imagined was that by now, Qingyan should have already fallen asleep. And she would just have to wait until the people Ning Siyao sends come to abduct her. Afterwards, she can leave this place.

Secretly without a trace, no one would know that Su Qingyan's death was once caused by her. But then, why did it turn out like this now? Could it be that she overlooked something?

"Miss, what are you talking about?" Granny Ruo looked to Qingyan refusing to admit it. Although she felt a bit guilty, she still didn't want to admit to the fact that she'd already betrayed Yingshuang yard.

Qingyan smiled, "Granny Ruo, your grandsons, your sons, your daughter-in-laws, are you not curious to how they died? Did you really think that it was Ning Siyao that sent someone to kill them?"

Granny Ruo listened to Qingyan's words, and her eyes widened. She pointed to Qingyan, a bit loss for words, "It was you. It was you that killed them!"

Qingyan listened, not denying granny Ruo's words. She raised her head and looked to granny Ruo, her tone condescendingly cold, "That's right. It was me. That's because you betrayed me first."

Granny Ruo was still shaking her head, "Miss, I've never betrayed you before. Why did you want to kill my grandsons!"

"No?" Su Qingyan laughed out loud, "If you really didn't intend on harming me, then why did your grandsons died? The pastries they ate were the ones you gave to me." Qingyan walked closer to granny Ruo still carrying a smile on her face, "In the end, you were the one that killed them."

Granny Ruo was still unable to believe what she'd just heard, because she'd always concealed this secret really well. It was impossible for Su Qingyan to have known about her family, furthermore they lived in that remote of an area.

"You're definitely lying to me. That's why you're saying these things. Miss, I really didn't betray you!" With that said, granny Ruo loudly bowed her head to the ground.

Qingyan took the container from Qingdai's hands. She opened it at once and placed everything out in front of granny Ruo, "Granny Ruo, do you know what this is?"
