Chapter 617: The Turn of Events
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
When Sonya left, it caused a commotion in the corridor, but later, the door slammed shut with a loud “bang,” isolating all the noise outside.
After Liu Yiqing returned to her desk, she sat down heavily, rubbing her temples as she had a terrible headache from Sonya’s outburst.
She opened a side drawer, took out a bottle of pills, and took a few. Su Ji got up calmly and went to the water dispenser to pour her a cup of warm water.
Liu Yiqing held the pills in her mouth and swallowed them. After placing the water cup back on the table, she watched the ripples of water inside it.
“Su Ji, is it true that I caused her to become like this? Her current paranoia and desire to win are all because of me.”
“I am so incompetent...”
Su Ji put her hands in her pockets, and there was a brief silence between the two.
“I recently got a new role,” Su Ji suddenly spoke.
“Ah,” Liu Yiqing paused, “I know, I saw the press conference for the female lead audition.”
Su Ji continued, “the script includes a subplot about a pair of twins.”
“I see..” Liu Yiqing didn’t Imow how she ended up talking about this, but she listened.
Su Ji explained, “the two are identical twins, but their destinies are completely different. After birth, they were separated from their mother. One was adopted by a master who named him named Dong and he followed the path of a celestial being. The other was adopted by a deceitful thief and named Deng. Later, Dong’s master passed away, and he went down the mountain to uphold justice and became famous, admired by the people. On the other hand, Deng went down an extreme path, working for the demonic cult. They meet again on the battlefield, and their personalities, values, and entire beings are drastically different.”
“Deng was seriously injured and taken back to the thatched cottage by his thief adoptive father. While the adoptive father brewed medicine for him using herbs stolen from the Baishan Hall, Deng, without any warning, lifted his blade and killed his adoptive father. The adoptive father died with grievances, asking him why. Deng said that he understood why he had become like this only after meeting his brother. It was because his adoptive father was an unscrupulous thief. If their destinies were switched, Deng would be the one respected by thousands of people. He resented that his adoptive father had taken him in...” Liu Yiqing listened, her expression dim and defeated, “it’s just like Sonya and me.”
If only Sonya had chosen another teacher back then, things might not have turned out like this.
“Let’s not jump to conclusions too quickly,” Su Ji smirked, “there’s a twist.” n.-O()v-)e)-L/-b/.I.(n
Liu Yiqing asked, “what do you mean?”
Su Ji continued, “The adoptive father of Deng, the thief, always lived with deep guilt toward his adopted son. But they didn’t know that Dong’s seemingly righteous master was actually the most hypocritical villain. He adopted Dong and several other children when they were young, solely to use them for his own purposes. Dong was abused by him since childhood, and the adopted brothers were forced to fight each other for food. It was not until the master passed away that they could escape his control, and Dong could finally pursue his own true ambitions.”
“Conversely, although Deng’s adoptive father was a thief, he always robbed the rich to help the poor. He was skilled and never failed before, except for one time when Deng was young and was mocked by other children.
“So, Dong grew up in a twisted environment, while Deng grew up feeling loved. ”
“Whatever kind of person she wants to become, the choice is always hers. Even if she made wrong decisions influenced by someone, she still has countless opportunities to correct them in the future if she wants to.”
“Sonya just refuses to admit her mistakes, and even if she doesn’t blame you, she’ll blame someone else.”
Despite Su Ji appearing indifferent to everything, her words were spot-on.
Liu Yiqing fell into silence, “if things continue like this, she’ll ruin herself sooner or later...
Su Ji looked towards the door.
Later, after Liu Yiqing adjusted her mood, she took out her notes, which were based on her observations of the market during this period, and suggested several potential paths for Su Ji.
Whether or not Su Ji agreed, she listened attentively.
She was really good at this, to the point that Liu Yiqing knew she might not follow her suggestions, but she didn’t mind at all.
Time passed, and when Su Ji and Cao Zhuzhu met up, it was already 1 0’clock in the afternoon. Su Ji said she would treat her, and Cao Zhuzhu jokingly told her not to be stingy.
The two went to a hot pot restaurant and chose a corner seat.
They sat on the same side, and while waiting for the food, they looked at a phone together.
They came across two very beautiful dresses in an advertisement, similar to the ones Su Ji had seen before, for “besties.” However, Cao Zhuzhu noticed the keyword “sisters-in-law.”
Su Ji raised an eyebrow, “should we buy them?”
Cao Zhuzhu’s ears turned red instantly.
Su Ji playfully poked her ear with a cool fingertip, “so red...”
The waiter came with the hot pot base, and Cao Zhuzhu quickly put her phone away, “let’s eat! Aren’t you hungry? I’m starving!”
Su Ji chuckled, “alright.”
Earlier, when Cao Zhuzhu was out, she overheard some students talking, “by the way, did you come back from Yijing Tower today?”
Su Ji confirmed.
Cao Zhuzhu asked, “I heard that Sonya was there too. Did you run into her? Did she cause you any trouble?”
Su Ji dipped a slice of beef into the spicy hot pot, “yeah, we ran into each other.”
As the two chatted and ate, not far behind them, Sonya sat at another table.
She still had her hat and mask on, leaning back in her chair with her hands in her pockets, not eating. She sat there quietly, her eyes fixed on Su Ji, particularly on Cao Zhuzhu’s face, which turned red with shyness from time to time...
Her expression could no longer be described as just gloomy.
She hadn’t ordered any food other than a pot of extra spicy hot pot base.
The whole block of solid hot pot base quickly melted in the pot, and the temperature rose rapidly. The boiling oil splashed among the chili peppers, aiming for every gap...
It started splashing outside.
A waiter politely asked, “Ma’am, shall I turn down the heat for you?” “No need, thanks,” Sonya replied in a tone devoid of any emotion. “Ah...” The waiter looked at her strangely and was quickly called away by other customers.
Sonya’s eyes were fixed on the boiling red oil, and a hint of madness flashed in her eyes....
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
