Chapter 103: Extreme Love
Wei Shilai did not ask her anything further. He waved his hand and said, “You can go back for the time being.”
The girls in the brothel could not go out at will unless their patrons paid a lot of money to take them away.
From what Xiao Zhu said, he could tell that Song Yu was an ordinary scholar. If he had the money, Yan Lan would not need to earn money to free herself.
...After everyone left, Liu Sanniang said to Wei Shilai, “Sir, where is Yan Lan’s body?”
Wei Shilai personally took her to the morgue.
On Yan Lan’s neck, there was a bloody hole. She closed her eyes and her lips were tightly shut.
She was beautiful and had fair skin. Liu Sanniang touched Yan Lan’s finger gently, and some intermittent memories were sensed by her.
She frowned.
Wei Shilai looked at Liu Sanniang and waited for her to retract her hand before asking. “How is it? Who killed her?”
Liu Sanniang said slowly, “She committed suicide.”
Wei Shilai frowned. “How come?”
All the testimony indicated that Yan Lan couldn’t have committed suicide. She had freed herself and wanted to live with her beloved Mr. Song. No matter what, she would not commit suicide.
It was unlucky that one would commit suicide when one held the hope for a bright life.
Liu Sanniang said, “She has already left this world. There aren’t many memories left in her. They’re incomplete and intermittent, but Mr. Song is the key to understanding why she killed herself.”
Wei Shilai nodded. “Understood. I’ll get someone to look for Song Yu now.”
Yan Lan committed suicide, but Song Yu must have something to do with it. They would only know why Yan Lan committed suicide after they found that man.
What Liu Sanniang sensed was Yan Lan’s gloomy mood. It was as if she did not care about her life at all. She dressed herself up beautifully before using the scissors to cut her throat. She did it decisively and quickly without alarming anyone.
She had no attachment to the world, so she didn’t linger on after she died. If she left without attachment, the memories of her body would gradually dissipate.
After Yan Lan was dead for several hours, most of her memories had pretty much gone.
Only when they found Song Yu would they understand what caused Yan Lan to kill herself.
Wei Shilai asked the constable to find Song Yu. Liu Sanniang left the government office and went home.
She looked at the people coming and going on the street and thought about what had just happened. Everyone had someone they were obsessed with.
For that person, they could risk their life and do anything. However, the outcome was never guaranteed.
Because no one knew what the person you loved was actually like.
Liu Sanniang did not notice that someone was running towards her and bumped into her, causing a stack of paper to fly everywhere.
The man was anxious. “Ah… my letters…”
Liu Sanniang reacted and quickly helped the man pick up the paper on the ground. There were words written on it, but Liu Sanniang did not read them because these were family letters and were private.
After picking up more than ten pieces of paper, Liu Sanniang finally looked up and saw the man’s face. She was stunned. He was really good-looking.
The man smiled at Liu Sanniang. “I apologize for causing you trouble.”
The man’s voice was gentle and his smile was like the spring breeze. He was dressed in white and looked like a gentleman.
Liu Sanniang said calmly, “I was the one who didn’t pay attention to the road. I should be the one apologizing. Did you miss any paper?”
The man smiled warmly. “No, no. Take care, Miss. I still have something to do.”
After saying that, the man nodded at Liu Sanniang and walked on. His footsteps were light, and his clothes fluttered as he walked.
Liu Sanniang looked away and turned to go home.
For some reason, she actually had a good impression of the man.
When she returned to Willow Alley, he saw Liu Shun and Liu Yinniang coming out of their house. They seemed to be going out together.
They were already engaged, and could be together in public.
When Liu Yinniang saw Liu Sanniang, she felt a little awkward and pretended not to see her.
Liu Shun looked at Liu Sanniang and his gaze darkened. Then, he looked away and pretended not to see her.
Liu Yinniang’s face was red. She lowered her head and was extremely shy.
Liu Sanniang also felt awkward, but the way Liu Shun looked at her made her very uncomfortable. After she opened the door, she entered the house and closed the door. It was much better if she could not see them.
The marriage between Liu Yinniang and Liu Shun was already set in stone. It wasn’t something she could change.
After Liu Sanniang closed the door, Liu Yinniang heaved a sigh of relief. For some reason, she felt awkward when she saw Liu Sanniang.
When she interacted with Liu Shun, he was gentle and extremely good to her. It was not like what Liu Sanniang had claimed. He was knowledgeable and gentlemanly and would definitely be a good husband.
Liu Shun smiled. When he passed by Liu Sanniang’s house, he took a deep breath to catch the lingering smell Liu Sanniang left. The nice fragrance was really tempting.
He looked at Liu Yinniang beside him and his eyes darkened. He said gently, “Yinniang, if you like rabbits, we can keep two. When the time comes, we can also have a kitten or a dog.”
Liu Yinniang blushed and nodded. “Yes.”
Liu Shun was really good to her, making her look forward to the future and her life after marriage.
Liu Yinniang felt that what Liu Sanniang had mentioned was all wrong. How could a person who was willing to raise these little animals be a violent person? His gaze was always so gentle, making her intoxicated.
…
When Liu Sanniang returned home, she calmed down and focused on embroidering.
She thought of Chu Yan and his request. Liu Sanniang was angry and helpless.
She couldn’t make clothes for Chu Yan yet. But if they were engaged, she could make clothes for him.
Now, she had to make one for Liu Dalang. After turning 18 next year, her eldest brother would start to prepare for his wedding.
Immediately after that, it would be her second brother’s turn to get married.
The next day, someone knocked on the door. Liu Sanniang opened the door and saw Su Miaomiao, who was dressed like a servant. She invited her into the house.
Su Miaomiao looked around. The clean courtyard and fruit trees made her feel envious. She sat down in the courtyard and said bluntly, “Miss Liu, can you help me?”
