Madam’s Identities Shocks the Entire City Again

Chapter 3738: Even With Tens of Millions In My Way, I Will Not Regret the Pursuit Even If I Die

Ji Lingfeng was unable to calm down after he finished speaking.

He hated Nie Qingru for killing the woman he loved the most, but in this matter, he couldn’t criticize her madness.

Nie Qingru had endured for 20 years for love, only to find that the person she had risked her life to protect was long dead. When she found him, only bones were left.

The pain was enough to drive a person crazy.

“She hated your grandfather and everyone in the Ji family… She also harbored such hatred for your mother… that’s why she did such a thing.”

Ji Lingfeng was silent for a moment. “After I found out about your existence, I also wanted you to come back, but I realized that time didn’t erase her hatred for your grandfather. Instead, it became stronger. I was afraid she would go after you, so I pretended not to accept you. I hoped she wouldn’t implicate you in the grudges of the older generation on account of your innocence. Qiao Nian, I was too naive.”

Qiao Nian leaned back slightly against the chair. Her slender neck was exposed, her fair skin dazzling the eyes.

She pinched the bridge of her nose and looked at the man lying on the bed with her sharp and rational eyes.

“So you feel sorry for her?”

“I…”

“No matter how pitiful she is, she shouldn’t make others pay for her pain!” Qiao Nian’s eyes were cold, but a ball of fire suddenly burned in her heart, as if any sparks could set a prairie on fire. “The person who owes her is Ji Wusun, the reclusive families, and those in her Nie family who forced her to marry. Of these three, one she didn’t have time to take revenge on, one she did not dare to take revenge on, and the last one she couldn’t take revenge on… Hence, she put all her hatred onto her daughter. Don’t you think it’s ridiculous? Did life become a tragedy because of Ji Qing? Did Ji Qing kill that man? Or was Ji Qing the one to make her compromise?

“Besides not reincarnating well, what did Ji Qing do wrong to be born to her?

“When she said she hated that person, she stood on the moral high ground and sentenced the innocent to death. This is the biggest joke I’ve ever heard!”

Qiao Nian rarely spoke so much. She stabbed Ji Lingfeng’s heart with every word, tearing his heart into pieces. She tore the surface and revealed what his timid self couldn’t face.

“You… are right.”

He could avenge Ji Qing, but he didn’t dare to pursue what happened back then.

He didn’t even have the right to miss her.

Sizzle—

Suddenly, Qiao Nian stood up and looked down at him. “Now I know everything you wanted to tell me. Since you don’t know who went after her back then, I’ll find out for myself.”

Seeing that the girl was about to leave, Ji Lingfeng called out, “Qiao Nian.”

The girl who opened the door but did not turn around. Instead, she stood with her back facing him, waiting for him to speak.

Ji Lingfeng’s expression was obscure. “Do you know what it means for you to investigate this matter?”

“I know.” The girl’s voice was sloppy. “I found what she hid in the Ji family’s old residence. There was a folder inside with a sentence written on it. Her last words.”

Ji Lingfeng’s eyebrows twitched. He suddenly looked up with a racing heart. “W-What?”

“Where values lie, even with tens of millions in my way, I will not regret the pursuit even if I die!”

The wind blew her voice away, but it was as firm as ever.

“I want to find out what it is that she would die to protect.”
