Chapter 228 Unnamed Draft

Yue Zhanchi couldn't hold on and died.

At this time, Yue Pengyu didn't even see him for the last time, just like her father——

She was numb.

When someone came to her and reported that countless silver had been dug out from the secret room in the study, she simply picked up her pen and dipped it in some ink.

"I see."

You should have known this a long time ago, right?

Why do I still hold on to hope?

I hope that everything is wrong and that Hengjian Villa has not done anything so outrageous.

She has been upholding justice for half her life, and every step she took at home was actually stepped on the blood and tears of soldiers on the border.

Her father and siblings deserve death.

But - she still had selfish motives and wanted to give her underage brother a chance to survive.

He wrote the letter, folded it, put it in an envelope, hid it against his chest, and quietly went to see Yue Tianci, who had been coaxed to sleep by her.

There were still red marks on his face from crying. Yue Tianci was curled up and sleeping very restlessly, with his brows furrowed and his eyes moving around under his eyelids, as if he was trapped in a nightmare.

Yue Pengyu sat quietly beside his bed. Under the lifted corner of the bed curtain, poor Yue Tianci was just like the childhood in his memory.

I only want to rely on her.

But little brother, you have to rely on yourself from now on, so you have to be strong.

She reached out and touched his forehead, which was not as hot as it was when they were children.

Yue Tianci seemed to have sensed something and turned around, with his back facing her, almost burying himself in the quilt.

She took out the letter she had written and put it under his pillow. She took one last look at Yue Tianci in his nightmare.

Finally, he closed the bed curtains and slowly stood up.

I am leaving.

Yue Pengyu still didn't say it.

Outside the secret room of the study, only Supervisor Lou Xiao was left, watching with his own eyes as people carried the mountain of silver out to see the sun.

Yue Pengyu's arrival was very untimely. Facing everyone's strange looks, she pretended to be calm and waited for the servant to inform her before she walked to the side of Duke Zhenguo Lou Xiao.

Only Lou Xiao was truly the same as always, "You came to see me?"

"Yes. I want to see--" see the sins her family has committed.

"Look." Lou Xiao did not add insult to injury, because she, Yue Pengyu, really had no idea. Facing the originally majestic study being knocked down, the collection of books scattered everywhere, and the words written by Yue Tianci were also thrown everywhere,

Now only ruins are left, and she sighed in her heart.

The silver in the secret room was continuously carried out, which dazzled Yue Pengyu's eyes. It was the first time that she felt that silver was the most tempting.

"Can you lend me the sword you used in the previous competition?"

Lou Xiao immediately turned her gaze from the silver to Yue Pengyu, "Sword?"

"My father forged it himself. But it has never been made public."

He couldn't mention Mobei. "My sword is not as good as this one. Can you let me take a last look at it?"

Hearing this, Lou Xiao gestured to Er Liu to throw the sword over. She grabbed it and handed it to Yue Pengyu, with a sincere and natural expression.

"Just watch."

Things left behind by the former owner of Hengjian Villa.

Yue Pengyu drew out his sword and observed it carefully. Lou Xiao was called away by Xiao Zhengdu soon.

Yue Pengyu was the only one left outside the secret room of the study. Under the gleam of the mountain of silver, he held the sword forged by Yue Kunqing, with a heavy heart.

Is that the silver light reflected by the silver? It's clearly blood red.

Yue Pengyu sighed and looked up at the sky. On the other side, the wall of the study collapsed with a loud bang. The people who were digging were in chaos for a while, but they soon calmed down.

So be it.
