The maids in the room did not even dare to breathe loudly. After such a big thing happened, there was no guarantee if they could live to see the sun rising tomorrow morning.
While Ren Wanyun was staring at the curtain in a daze, Shen Qing suddenly moved on the bed. She quickly called with worry, “Qing?”
Shen Qing opened her eyes. The moment she saw Ren Wanyun, she looked terrified and reached out to scratch Ren Wanyun’s face. “Let go of me. Go away! Help!”
“QIng, I’m your mother! I’m your mother! Don’t be afraid. I’m here!” Ren Wanyun felt like her heart was being cut by a knife, but Shen Qing seemed to not recognize her. She just struggled with all her might and stared at the ceiling, shouting crazily.
Xianglan and Caiju quickly went forward to help hold Shen QIng down. Shen Qing seemed to have lost her mind and did not even recognize Ren Wanyun. As she struggled, the medicine that was applied to her body was all messed up. The bloody wounds came into Ren Wanyun’s sight, and she immediately cried out in fright.
“Madam.” Xianglan and Caiju were shocked and afraid. Ren Wanyun had always been an opinionated person who could handle anything calmly. She had been through a lot over the years, but now she was pushed to this extent. The two girls who had been with Ren Wanyun for many years could not help but be shocked.
“Where is Shen Miao?” Ren Wanyun asked aggressively.
“Fifth Miss… is in the temple,” Cai Ju said carefully.
“Take good care of Qing. If anything happens to her, the two of you will die.” Ren Wanyun turned around and left in a huff.
… .
In the temple, a huge golden Buddha statue stood tall and looked down at the believers with a benevolent expression.
In front of the statue, Shen Miao knelt on the ground with incense in her hand, thinking about something.
She had been kneeling here for a few hours.
“Miss, get up and take a rest.” Jingzhe persuaded her. “Buddha must have already seen your sincerity. What you ask will definitely be answered.”
What she asked would be answered? When Shen Miao heard this, the corners of her mouth curled into a bitter smile. What she asked could no longer be answered. Although she had a chance to redo the mistakes of her previous life, those who had passed away would not come back. Would her Wanyu and Fu Ming have a chance to live again as well?
They had probably long become ashes and disappeared from this world.
Moreover, she was not a believer.
Shen Miao looked up at the huge golden Buddha statue. It was just a cold statue, so it was impossible for it to really save all living beings. If the heavens had eyes, how could they let good people die miserably and allow the bad people to continue doing bad things?
She knelt here and kept offering incense, not to Buddha, but to the people who had died because of her.
“Shen Miao!” An aggressive voice suddenly barged in.
Shen Miao smiled. She already expected Ren Wanyun to come after her.
She rubbed her sore knees and stood up. She turned around and looked at Ren Wanyun with a smile. “Second Aunt.”
Seeing Shen Miao’s smile, Ren Wanyun felt that it was even more ear-piercing. She quickly walked forward and raised her hand to slap Shen Miao.
When Jingzhe and Gu Yu wanted to stop her, it was too late. However, the slapping sound they expected did not appear. Shen Miao grabbed Ren Wanyun’s arm and stopped it in mid-air.
“Second Aunt, I don’t know why you’re so impulsive. Although you can discipline me on behalf of my father and my mother, I’m afraid you need to have a good reason for doing so,” she said.
