Chapter 1160 -1154: Blood for Blood

The former Sima Ruodan was a bit bold but a simple and kind-hearted girl. To people… especially family, she had no defenses at all. She hadn’t even met Xue Renyi, so if her engagement was taken, it was taken; she didn’t care that much. But they forced her mother to death! This… Sima Ruodan could never forgive!

Sima Ruodan was sobbing uncontrollably, looking up at Bai Qingyan with overwhelming sorrow: “I can give up anything, but I can’t give up my mother! They deceived my mother utterly!”

She clutched her gown tightly, unable to stop crying: “My mother… took her own life! She believed wholeheartedly that by taking her own life, the Sima family would finally make me the true daughter of the Sima family! They tricked my mother! They killed her! I no longer have her… they killed my mother! They forced her to death! I must make the entire Sima family pay with blood!”

Hearing Sima Ruodan’s hysterical cries, Lu Ninghuan’s eyes turned red like a criminal’s daughter being sent away, and naturally, she understood.

Sima Ruodan’s emotions silenced everyone in the room.

In this room, besides Bai Qingqi, who had already investigated Sima Ruodan thoroughly, the others were hearing for the first time the hatred Sima Ruodan carried behind her back.

Bai Jinzhao, enraged by Sima Ruodan’s story, stood up and helped her up, her eyes red as she said, “Sister Liaochen, whether you’re Liaochen or Sister Sima, in any case… you’re recognized by me, Bai Jinzhao, as a friend. When we return to Dadu City, I will definitely get justice for you and your mother! As for that Xue Renyi, I will also take you to him and tell him you are his true fiancée!”

Bai Jinzhao and Bai Jinzhi both have temperaments that are quite similar, considering themselves heroines, and love to right wrongs. Hearing such a tragic story… they couldn’t hold back, wanting to march to the Sima family at that moment!

How could anyone do such things! The Sima family took someone as a godchild and then abandoned them, and at the end, not only took away her daughter’s engagement, but also wanted to marry her off to an old widower — what kind of monsters are these; they are no different from those of the Bai Clan in Shuoyang.

Sima Ruotong, filled with tears, looked at Bai Jinzhao. She had spent some time with Bai Jinzhao, knowing she was someone with a lot of courage, and she shook her head with tears: “It’s alright, my vengeance is mine to take! Furthermore, I have no interest in this engagement, it was all for my father and mother. Now they are both gone, this engagement means nothing to me.”

At first, Sima Ruodan truly remembered nothing, but a fortnight later… she gradually remembered much, but still pretended to be amnesiac and refused to leave the Bai family army because she feared others would soon expel her once they knew her memories returned, admitting she was afraid of making mistakes, so she continued to pretend to be foolish as she had been before recovering her past memories.

She admitted there was a time when she harbored dark thoughts… because this place included the Emperor’s siblings. If she could marry the Emperor of Zhou’s brother, returning gloriously to Dadu City, she would make the Sima family pay!

Yet… she was not entirely disingenuous. She genuinely liked the generals and women of the Bai family, sincerely… liked Bai Qingqi, the man who saved her risking his life in an instant, admired his graceful demeanor, his unburdened mind.
