Chapter 1913: You Should Be Glad
“However, when I arrived, she shifted to thinking that I was the one you liked. I don’t know if she intended to kill me or ruin my reputation, but her apology to Pingting was real. She quickly transferred her hatred to me as she felt like I was guilty for seducing you.”
“Lunatic! She’s a lunatic!” Wu Zongyang shouted angrily.
Wu Pingting had experienced a life-and-death catastrophe. Even though she had lost her memory, she still knew that she had been kidnapped and drugged with strong alkaloids. Even if she could not remember the fear and despair that she had felt whilst in pain, hence why she was able to think clearly, this did not mean that she did not feel sad.
She was extremely sad. After all, her ‘first time’, which she had been preserving so preciously for so long, had been ruined just like that.
To make her family happy and not let down her idol, the generous and intelligent Wu Pingting had decided that she could not live in sorrow. She refused to feel sorry for herself. She wanted to avoid doing anything that would make her loved ones suffer and allow her enemies to prosper.
However, after finding out that the person who hurt her might be her best friend of many years, Wu Pingting felt as if her heart had been shattered into a million pieces.
She felt that she had failed as a person.
Due to her family’s situation, she did not have many friends to begin with. Xu Yunyun was the same age as her, had a similar family background to her, and had played with her since they were children. Therefore, she truly regarded Xu Yunyun as her best friend.
Even though she could not remember the specifics of her tragedy, the feeling of knowing that she had been betrayed by her own friend made her very sad.
Nangong Nuannuan walked over to Wu Pingting’s side, patted her on the shoulder, and said, “Don’t be sad. You should be happy. At least now you’re seeing her for who she really is. You saw that someone you trusted wholeheartedly was able to betray you so brutally. People like that aren’t mentally sound—they’re sociopathic, and their hearts aren’t in balance. Even if they didn’t harm you this time because of Big Bro Xu, they would have found a reason to harm you the next time. This time, she took your virginity but didn’t ruin your entire life. Fortunately, you were able to see her true colors before she could do that. Now, all you can do is distance yourself and keep your guard up when it comes to her so that next time, you won’t end up losing your life.”
This was just like Nuannuan’s past life. Was it because Nuannuan had not kept her guard up? On the one hand, she felt that regardless of how terrible Jiang Shuwan was, she was still her mother. On the other hand, many mothers in this world did not like their children—but they did not harm them.
This made Viper develop a colorless, odorless anesthetic to give to Jiang Shuwan. Nuannuan did not believe that Jiang Shuwan would ever take her life. She was confident that Jiang Shuwan would not be able to kill her, so Nuannuan had not kept her defenses up against her.
In the end, it had resulted in her and Chi Yang’s death.
“Remember, no matter what happens, as long as a person is still alive, there is a way for things to get better.”
“Nuannuan is right!” Elder Wu nodded. “Pingting, don’t be sad. A person like her was never truly your friend. You should be grateful that all she did this time was trick you and harm you but not kill you. If she had been more ruthless, Grandpa would have died of a heart attack a long time ago mourning you.”
Although Wu Pingting was sad, she knew that her grandfather and Nangong Nuannuan were right. She sobbed for a while before calming down.
Xu Feiyang was distraught for quite a while before he collected himself and bowed to Wu Pingting.
