Liu Sanniang nodded.
Su Qiong walked in front. When she thought of Lu Qingqing, she felt distressed. She never realized that she had ignored this daughter of hers so much in the past. She always felt that Lu Ranran was weak, so it was only right that she gave her more care and attention.
However, over the last few nights when she couldn’t fall asleep, she thought of almost everything she hadn’t thought of before.
She did not have much free time to begin with, so she gave all her free time to Lu Ranran. Lu Qingqing had a bad temper, so she wasn’t patient with her and always scolded her. Now that she thought about it, she was filled with self-reproach.
When they arrived at Lu Qingqing’s courtyard, the servants bowed. “Madam, Miss still refuses to eat.”
Su Qiong opened the door and entered. She looked at Lu Zhen and saw that he was covered in wounds. Su Qiong said, “Go and treat your wounds.”
Lu Zhen glanced at the door and nodded before leaving.
Lu Qingqing was laying on the bed. She stopped shouting and kicking up a fuss, but all her resistance was done in silence. Her expression was cold as she said, “What are you here for? Lecturing me?”
Su Qiong’s heart ached. “Qingqing…”
She felt guilty. Looking at Lu Qingqing’s cold expression, she knew how much of a failure she had been as a mother all these years. The first thing that crossed Lu Qingqing’s mind when she saw her mother was whether or not she was here to lecture her again.
Lu Qingqing mocked coldly. “Cut the crap. I am telling you that I won’t compromise. I can also tell you clearly that I’m not bewitched. I don’t want the Su family now. Can you let me go?”
Su Qiong frowned. “No.”
Lu Qingqing’s eyes were filled with hatred. “What do you want me to do then? Do you want me to die?”

Liu Sanniang looked at Lu Qingqing and said calmly.
As soon as Liu Sanniang spoke, Lu Qingqing looked at Liu Sanniang and sized her up. “You’re the master my mother hired, aren’t you? Is that how you make a living? By pretending to be a master and lying?”
Su Qiong was worried that Lu Qingqing’s words would infuriate Liu Sanniang, so she scolded her. “Miss Liu is not a liar. Qingqing, don’t be so rude.”
Lu Qingqing said in a sharp voice, “What does it have to do with me if she’s a liar or not? If she’s not a liar, ask her to prove it.”
Su Qiong looked at Liu Sanniang awkwardly.
Liu Sanniang closed her eyes and took two steps towards Lu Qingqing. She said, “Is the bun delicious?”
Lu Qingqing was stunned and looked at Liu Sanniang in shock. How did she know?
Su Qiong asked in confusion. “What bun?”
Liu Sanniang looked into Lu Qingqing’s eyes and continued. “You said that you would never compromise, but why did you still eat? You dislike Mrs. Lu so much that you think she’s controlling you, but so do you. Your every move is intended to control her.”
Lu Qingqing looked away. “You, you’re talking nonsense. She’s the one who wants to control me. She’s possessed and vicious. You’re ridiculous.”
Liu Sanniang grabbed Lu Qingqing’s hand without any warning, instantly wrapping her power around Lu Qingqing.
Lu Qingqing felt suffocated. Her eyes widened and she trembled slightly. She wanted to struggle, but she had lost her strength to do so.
Liu Sanniang’s sudden attack caught the poisonous worm in Lu Qingqing’s body off guard. When the poisonous worm was forced out of her body, Lu Qingqing felt abnormally painful. Her entire body twitched as if she was having cramps.
Her mouth opened stiffly as if her soul was sucked away.
Su Qiong was terrified. She wanted to reach out and pull Liu Sanniang away, but Chu Yan stopped her. Su Qiong was worried. “Mr. Chu, I just…”
Su Qiong wanted to explain that she was just worried about her daughter.
Chu Yan’s eyes were cold as he said, “No one can approach.”
Su Qiong felt a chill run down her spine.
“Ah…”
Lu Qingqing screamed. She scratched Liu Sanniang’s wrist so hard that it started to bleed.
Lu Zhen came in when he heard the scream. He pulled out his sword and pointed it at Chu Yan. “Let go of her.”
Su Qiong ordered him. “Lu Zhen, stop.”
Lu Zhen frowned. He did not listen to her order and said again, “Let go of her.”
He did not know what happened. He only knew that at this moment Lu Qingqing was in extreme pain.
When Lu Qingqing heard Lu Zhen’s voice, she cried for help. “Lu Zhen, save me.”
Lu Zhen’s expression turned cold and he was about to make a move.
At this moment, Liu Sanniang let go. She grabbed a white worm and threw it on the ground. The worm squirmed for a few times before it turned into a pool of blood.

Liu Sanniang said, “A poisonous worm.”
Liu Sanniang thought of Zhang Tianyou who might be behind this. He should not have existed, but was lucky enough to escape. If he wanted to live, he had to absorb the life force of others.
Lu Qingqing took a few breaths. “I don’t think this worm can do anything. I think it’s just a trick you use to make people believe you. Without this worm, I still won’t change my mind.”
Chu Yan took out a handkerchief and handed it to Liu Sanniang. She wiped the blood off her hands before responding to Lu Qingqing. “Any choice you make is your own business.”
Lu Qingqing bit her lip, feeling a little aggrieved.
Su Qiong heaved a sigh of relief and said, “Miss Liu is right. As long as the choice you make is well-thought-out, I will support you.”
Lu Qingqing was in disbelief. “Are you serious? Then I’m going out to see Qin Lin now. You won’t stop me, will you?”
Su Qiong nodded. “I won’t.”
Previously, she didn’t allow her daughter to go out because she was suspicious. Now that Liu Sanniang had fixed it, she naturally would not stop her daughter. As long as Lu Qingqing was rational, she was not worried.
Who she needed to deal with had never been her daughter.
Lu Qingqing felt puzzled in an angry way. She looked at Su Qiong, still unable to believe it. She gritted her teeth and stood up. “Alright, I’ll go out now.”
Lu Qingqing left immediately. When she left the courtyard, the servants quickly stopped her. Lu Qingqing sneered and turned around. “I knew you weren’t so kind.”
Su Qiong immediately instructed. “Move aside. From now on, Miss is free to go where she likes.”
Lu Qingqing looked at Su Qiong and was dumbfounded. She gritted her teeth and ran out without hesitation after the servants gave way. There were some things she needed to figure out herself.
Although she did not believe Liu Sanniang, after being grabbed by Liu Sanniang, she did not feel so good. She did not believe that the worm was actually taken out of her body. Therefore, now she wanted to find Qin Lin and see if without the worm, it would be anything different.
Su Qiong sighed and instructed Lu Zhen. “Go and protect Qingqing.” As soon as Su Qiong gave the order, Lu Zhen swooshed out.
