FSC [QT] Chapter 104.1

Arc 5: Swapping Lives (56)

Advertisement

“I don’t owe you anything.” Ah Wu looked at Ling Zhuo and said indifferently.

For her, although Ling Zhuo was the same age as her, in terms of mental age, she always felt that the other party was just a child. Because of her arrogant and willful temper, maybe she could add a word to the prefix, a naughty child.

She had a strong desire to discipline the naughty child.

Ah Wu felt that she might not have been a doctor in her previous life, but she might have been an excellent teacher.

But could a woman be a teacher?

There was a brief doubt in Ah Wu’s mind, but she quickly put aside those messy thoughts and concentrated on the girl in front of her.

She didn’t know whether the memory in her mind just now really happened. Ah Wu believed that it was a story that happened in a world similar to parallel space.

In that world, there was no brother, ‘Yu Wu’ was not her, and Ling Zhuo’s changes in that world were also foreseeable.

Unlike this world, the Ling family found ‘Yu Wu’ half a year after they discovered that they had carried the wrong child.

In that parallel world, the Ling family searched for ‘Yu Wu’ for nearly four years, and in the fifth year, they learned the fact that when ‘Yu Wu’ was three years old, she was sold to a usurer by Mrs. Yu.

At that time, Ling Yaodong and Mrs. Fan had a different mentality.

If ‘Yu Wu’ was good, they would naturally be more willing to strike a balance between the adopted daughter and the biological daughter, and they would not want to give up the adopted daughter while making up for the biological daughter.

But ‘Yu Wu’ was sold. The fate of a beautiful girl after being sold was predictable.

At that time, Ling Yaodong and Mrs. Fan watched Mrs. Yu’s biological daughter living a pampered life in the Marquis’s Mansion, while their own biological daughter might be experiencing the most tragic humiliation in the world.

It was difficult for their mentality not to change.

In the first year, perhaps they still couldn’t be angry with the child they raised, but in the second and third years, people’s mentality was unpredictable.

Mrs. Fan and Ling Yaodong were not saints, and their attitude toward a person would change with the change in mentality.

Under such circumstances, in the first year, maybe Ling Zhuo was still like the Ling Zhuo that Ah Wu came into contact with now.

She didn’t believe the fact that she was carried by the wrong person and used pretending to be sick and making noise to gain sympathy.

But at that time, Ling Yaodong and Fan didn’t know how to face her.

Her use of such methods would only make them more disappointed in her, and at the same time, they would feel more and more distressed and worried about the child who had not been found.

So, in the first year, she was still the spoiled young lady of the Marquis’s Mansion.

In the second, third, and fourth years, under the increasingly indifferent and neglectful attitude of her adoptive parents, she would eventually grow up.

So when ‘Yu Wu’ was found, she met a calm and cautious girl.

She already recognized her identity and knew that she couldn’t compete with ‘Yu Wu’, the real daughter of the Marquis’s mansion, so she gave in step by step and endured step by step.

The hardships of life made her change from a spoiled girl to a frightened bird who planned three steps before taking one step, was always trembling with fear, and dared not make the slightest mistake.

Maybe in the end, others thought that she won because she stood at the highest position among women in ancient times, but no one knew how much effort she had spent to get to this point and how much grievance she had endured.

Especially since the memory stopped abruptly after the death of ‘Yu Wu’.

At that time, Ling Zhuo, as the Empress of the Six Palace, had no children, but several concubines who were taken into the palace to balance the forces of all parties had given birth to heirs one after another.

No one knew how long the Emperor’s love could last, but outsiders could understand how weak it was for the Empress to have no children.

What would happen to Ling Zhuo in the future?

Would she make it to the end in the deep palace struggle and become a name mentioned in history books, or would she fail in the struggle of various forces and become unrecognizable?

No one knew.

But no matter which one it was, perhaps she could get the most prominent position in the world, but her heart was empty.

This was an extremely narrow-minded girl. Her parents’ partiality from childhood to adulthood made her unable to tolerate even her brother Ling Zihuai. But when she was eleven years old, her beautiful dream was shattered and she completely lost her parents.

The death of ‘Yu Wu’ finally put an end to this relationship. From then on, Ling Zhuo no longer had a father or a mother.

This tragedy was not only aimed at ‘Yu Wu’.

In fact, because Ling Zhuo had a vested interest in the eyes of the outside world, no one would ever pity or sympathize with her.

Even if she tolerated and was wronged, it was only regarded as retribution and compensation.

Emotionally, Ling Zhuo’s trauma might not be less than that of ‘Yu Wu’.

“Do you really think so as you said?” Ah Wu asked back.

She saw that Ling Zhuo was fierce on the outside but weak on the inside. The so-called collusion with the second branch was probably something this little girl came up with to make herself feel better.

“You have to understand that you stole these eleven years from me.”

Ah Wu frowned and shook off her hand that was grabbing her collar.

She didn’t hate the spoiled little girl in front of her, but she definitely didn’t like her. A bad-tempered kid was definitely not likable, and people wanted to educate her.

So when facing her, Ah Wu didn’t mind saying some harsh words to let her see the reality clearly.

“When I was young, if it weren’t for my brother’s protection, I might have starved to death. When I was three years old, that woman borrowed a lot of money and hanged herself. My brother had no choice but to sell himself to pay off the debt.”

“Do you know how a three-year-old child felt when she lost all her relatives that year and had to take care of herself?”
