I am the champion of palace intrigue, and even the proud prince bows his head in submission.

Chapter 355 Broken Relationship

She was well aware of Xie Yanli's abilities.

He must have investigated everything thoroughly.

Xie Yanli pursed his lips, then succinctly explained the relationship between the venomous snake and the Qin family.

Qin Jiuwei lay on her side on the bed, listening quietly, but her eyes gradually dimmed.

He gripped the corner of the blanket tightly, his face growing increasingly pale.

"The Qin family..."

She murmured softly, her voice trembling slightly, her eyes filled with disbelief.

She had long since given up on the Qin family.

But to my surprise, they actually wanted to kill her.

They actually went so far as to use such a heavy hand...

But she quickly realized it was probably because of Qin Le'an...

Qin Jiuwei took a slow breath, raised her hand and pressed it to her forehead, her eyes tired and solemn.

She was silent for a moment, then asked, "The Qin family... what do you plan to do with them?"

Xie Yanli's voice was low and deep: "I want to kill them both."

He paused, then added, "But I'm still hesitating. Whether or not to kill him depends on your decision."

Qin Jiuwei remained silent for a moment.

She didn't immediately answer whether to kill or not, but slowly said, "I want to see them."

dungeon.

The iron gate was pushed open forcefully by the guards, making a low creaking sound.

Qin Jiuwei, wearing a cloak, slowly walked in.

The dim candlelight reflected off her cloak, casting a flickering shadow.

Qin's father and Li's wife, who had been huddled together, slowly raised their heads when they heard footsteps.

Qin Jiuwei stopped in front of them and then pulled down the hood of her cloak.

The faint candlelight illuminated her pale face, her expression serene.

"It's you!"

Upon seeing Qin Jiuwei, Li's expression instantly shifted from blank to furious.

"How...how are you still alive?!"

Li's expression instantly twisted.

"You shouldn't be alive! You've been poisoned by snakes! You should have died long ago! You should have died long ago!"

Tears streamed down her face uncontrollably, and she struggled violently as her body was bound by the chains.

She did so much! She even suffered so much inhuman torment in the dungeon!

She's been driven almost insane by the torture!

But she still endured it! The thought of Qin Jiuwei's death brought her a sense of satisfaction!

But to everyone's surprise, Qin Jiuwei is still alive and well!

What about all the suffering she endured? What about it?

Qin Jiuwei stood there, coldly watching the two people behind the chains.

"I've come only to see you off on your final journey."

Upon hearing this, Qin's father immediately flew into a rage, lunging forward and pulling on the iron chains in his hands with a creaking sound.

"You wicked daughter! You unfilial daughter! You actually wanted to kill your father!"

He gave Qin Jiuwei her life!

He wanted to kill her; he was exercising his power!

But how could Qin Jiuwei dare to kill him?

"Only when the father is kind can the son be filial!" Qin Jiuwei's eyes instantly turned cold.

"You haven't even done what a father should do, what right do you have to talk about filial piety?"

Qin's father was so angry that he couldn't speak, and could only glare at her fiercely.

Qin Jiuwei spoke slowly, her tone so calm it was chilling.

“You’ve always favored Le’an since we were little. Even when our mother was alive, you always protected her. When we were little, if Qin Le’an and I fell down at the same time, you would pick her up first, swagger around for her, and even stay with her at night.”

“When I had a high fever, I was lying on the bed covered in cold sweat, but you didn’t even come into my room.”

“When my mother was alive, she argued for me several times, but each time she was stopped by you with the saying that the family should follow the order of seniority.”

"I had a headache and cried, begging my mother to hold me more. As soon as my mother reached out her hand, you gave me a cold look and told her not to spoil the child."

"Later, my mother passed away. I thought I would receive more care from you, but I didn't. You never visited me once, and you even got my birthday wrong."

“In your eyes, I am simply a superfluous person.”

Her voice gradually trembled slightly.

As she spoke, Qin Jiuwei suddenly took a step forward, staring into her father's eyes, her tone filled with barely suppressed anger and pain.

"But why? Why?!"

"Am I not your daughter? Don't I have your blood in me?"

"How can people be so biased! How can they distort the truth like this! How can they treat their own daughter like a complete stranger!"

"Tell me! Why?!"

Her angry voice echoed through the cold dungeon.

His tone was filled with unresolved resentment.

For a moment, Qin's father was speechless and could only turn his face away, not daring to meet her gaze.

“They’re different…you and her are different…”

Upon hearing these words, Qin Jiuwei's heart immediately turned cold, as if a chilling wind had swept through her soul.

I felt like my anger just now was a joke.

It froze all her pain in an instant.

He doesn't love her.

She already knew it.

He was her father, but he didn't love her.

She couldn't understand it countless times, and it caused her great pain.

But now that I think about it, none of that matters anymore.

She had kept these words to herself for two lifetimes.

Now I've finally said it.

Qin Jiuwei's gaze was icy, and she suddenly reached into her waist and drew a dagger.

Then he grabbed the end of his hair and slashed it with the blade.

Her long hair snapped off instantly.

Qin Jiuwei looked at the strand of hair on the ground, a resolute glint in her eyes.

"From this moment on, I, Qin Jiuwei, have no blood ties with the Qin family whatsoever."

The moment she turned around, she heard the sound of chains snapping violently behind her.

"Nine micros! Nine micros!"

Qin's father's words seemed to have exhausted all his strength.

His voice echoed in the dungeon, filled with undisguised fear.

As she walked away into the distance, he felt as if he were about to break free from the rack, the chains clanging loudly as they were pulled.

He didn't even know what he was thinking.

His mind was a complete mess.

But a voice kept telling him that he couldn't let her go.

We can't let her leave!

Qin's father's voice was hoarse, "Come back! Come back! Don't go!"

He cried out in despair, his voice gradually becoming hoarse and low.

Until they completely disappeared into the echoing depths of the dungeon.
