Chapter 130: Chapter 130: Turning the Tables

Xu Ke’s gaze swept over Yun Rulan’s face. He gently rubbed Yun Rulan’s hand, a faint smile slowly spreading across his otherwise expressionless face, but his eyes were like pools of icy spring water, devoid of any warmth, as a desire for destruction rose within him.

A woman who truly wants to end her life through starvation, how could she still think of putting on perfume for herself? Her pallid complexion might not appear unusual at first glance, but upon closer inspection, it reveals a sense of unnaturalness. When I looked at her face, although it appeared haggard and sorrowful, her heart was racing. Under these clearly abnormal circumstances, what could be hidden beneath it all?

The beast within Xu Ke licked its sharp fangs. This pair of grandparents caused him and Lin Mengyao to lose everything overnight. If he didn’t extract some sort of revenge, it would truly be inhuman of him.

With this thought, Xu Ke’s expression softened, as if the previous expression had been merely a momentary illusion for Yun Rulan. "You’re too old for these childish hunger strike antics. Don’t you realize how worried your grandfather must be about you?" Xu Ke’s voice still held a hint of coldness, but it was significantly softer than before.

"Yes, it’s all my fault, alright? Just call me immature. You might as well let me starve to death, that way I won’t be a bother to anyone, nor will I continue to sadden my grandfather." Yun Rulan’s eyes filled with tears, deliberately turning her head to let Xu Ke see the still-unhealed scars scratched by Li Lihua’s nails. "I shouldn’t be alive; I should just die to settle everything once and for all."

Without warning, Yun Rulan spoke these words and then fainted into Xu Ke’s arms. Xu Ke looked at the unconscious Yun Rulan, a mocking smile appearing in his eyes.

"Miss Yun has fainted. Quickly, call a doctor." Xu Ke supported Yun Rulan’s weight with one hand, his expression serious as he looked at the old master of the Yun family, exuding a sense of urgency that made it difficult for him to discern its authenticity.
