Chapter 494 Li Caihong Doesn't Want To Follow Li Na Anymore!
The maid came out of Li Caihong's room after almost ten minutes. Li Na was getting impatient with every passing second. Fortunately, just when she was thinking of leaving the courtyard, the maid came out of Li Caihong's room and informed her that she was allowed to go inside.
Li Na sighed deeply to bury the frustration she was feeling inside her heart and entered the room.
She frowned seeing the dark room and couldn't help but say
"Caihong, are you there? Why is the room so dark?"
A chuckle sounded in the room suddenly and Li Na frowned at its sound because it seemed to be very cold.
A candle seemed to light suddenly in the room and Li Na looked towards the light, however she almost screamed when she saw Li Caihong's face just above the light of the candle.
Her eyes were wide and filled with fear as she covered her mouth hurriedly, however, Li Caihong noticed everything.
There was a smile on her lips as she walked towards her dear sister with the candle in her hands.
Li Na felt very angry when she saw the smile on Li Caihong's lips.
She had wanted to say something but she didn't know why she couldn't say anything. There seemed to be something different about Li Caihong after so many days.
She has changed completely.
Her eyes now made Li Na feel intimidated and there was an aura surrounding her that made her feel as if Li Caihong had gone crazy … as if she could do anything in that craziness.
"Why is Elder Sister here today?"
Li Caihong's voice made Li Na come out of her trance and she gulped when she noticed that Li Caihong was standing too close to her.
Unconsciously, she stepped back and looked everywhere but at Li Caihong's face.
Remembering Li Caihong's question, she said
"I wanted to talk to you about whatever you did just a few moments ago."
"What did I do, Elder Sister?"
There was a mocking smile on Li Caihong's lips as she asked this question but Li Na could never see that as she was never looking at Li Caihong's face.
A frown full of displeasure appeared on Li Na's forehead and she said in a voice that expressed her irritation.
"You should not talk to Mother like that, Caihong. Father is already very angry after he had come to know of everything. We have only our mother at our side. We can't lose her either, otherwise, yours or my life in Li Manor would be very hard."
"Oh…"
Li Caihong blinked her eyes after hearing her sister's words.
"So Elder Sister is worried about Caihong. After all, Elder Sister is soon going to leave Li Manor and marry into Lu Manor."
Li Na immediately nodded her head though it was not so in reality.
"Indeed, I am worried about you, Caihong."
Li Caihong's smile was very cold this time. The next moment, she stopped pretending and whispered coldly.
"For how long are you going to lie to me, Li Na?"
Li Na frowned as she heard Li Caihong's words. She turned her head to look at her with the same frown and opened her mouth to scold her.
"Caihong, what rubbish are you talking about?"
Li Caihong stepped closer to Li Na with the candle still in her hands. That scared Li Na and she tried to step back, however, Li Caihong held her arm and stopped her.
"Caihong…what are you doing?"
Li Na shouted and struggled, however, Li Caihong's hold on her arm was too tight and she couldn't do anything.
She was very scared and tried to turn her face away, however, Li Caihong was enjoying her fear.
Her heart had been filled with pain and rage since the day she had come to know that her dear sister was actually coveting the man who had left this hideous scar on her face.
That day, in the Imperial Palace, she had fought for her sister and spoke this and that to that Li Rui and that's why she got this scar and now she is coming to know that her sister wanted that man only who saved Li Rui and hit her with that whip.
What was she supposed to feel?
It had taken her a few days to realize what exactly was going on….especially when Li Na didn't visit her even once after that day.
Instead, she found out a few days later that she had already found a man who loved her and now soon she was going to marry that man.
Li Na still didn't visit her.
Li Caihong's eyes started to open suddenly. The curtain that had been covering her eyes finally fell down and she realized just how selfish her dear sister was.
What would become of her!
She was going to rot in Li Manor with this hideous scar on her face!
The realization was making her crazy slowly and slowly.
Li Caihong's hold on Li Na's arm was so tight at this moment that Li Na couldn't stop the cry coming out of her mouth and asked her continuously to leave her arm. However, Li Caihong didn't seem to listen to her at all.
She threw the candle away suddenly and neared Li Na's face as she whispered sharply.
"Do you think that I am a fool? I, of course, know that you are just afraid that after the marriage, Lu Jianye would suddenly realize that you are actually no use of him…ha! That's why you want Mother on your side."
Li Na's throat went dry.
It was really the truth.
No matter how much Lu Jianye liked her at this moment, Li Na knew that if she wanted to gain a place and have some control in Lu Manor then she needed to use Li family, however with her current state in Li Manor, it almost seemed impossible to her.
But how did Li Caihong know this!
Li Caihong smiled coldly seeing her sister's shock that represented that what she said just now was really the truth!
She wondered silently if Li Na had always been so selfish!
And she, like a fool, followed her all childhood and completed whatever she asked her to do!
She really had been a big fool!
