NovelEnglishNoble Consort Ruan’s face was pale and aghast. Looking at the young man lying on the bed, her mind flashed back to how he looked when he was a child.
He was such a small and well-behaved child. When he picked up any small animal, he would bring it back to her and call her ‘mother’ softly.
At that time, he was smiling so happily.
Noble Consort Ruan suddenly remembered that she hadn’t seen Lin Ting’s smile for a long time.
The older he got, the more silent he became.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe sat beside the bed and held Lin Ting’s hand, feeling stunned for a long time.
Lin Feilu gave Meng Fuji a look and he excused himself without further ado. With only the two of them left in the room, Lin Feilu walked over to Noble Consort Ruan and said softly, “Noble Consort.”
Noble Consort Ruan was startled and turned around.
She stared at the girl beside her.
This was the person she had always hated and even wanted to kill. But in a twisted turn of fate, she was the one who saved her own son, which also meant that she saved the entire Ruan family.
Noble Consort Ruan didn’t know how to face her for a while.
She was very well aware that Lin Feilu didn’t like her, so she was expecting harsh comments and criticisms or sneers from the child. However, she thought that she was just going to accept whatever impudent words that were going to be thrown in her way.
Who would have thought that Lin Feilu merely looked at her and accentuated her every word, “Has Noble Consort Ruan ever loved this child of yours?”
Noble Consort Ruan moved her lips. She wanted to say that naturally, she did love him. After all, it was presumptuous for a mother to not love her own son. But when she was about to utter those words, she thought about her and her family’s actions throughout these past few years. She remembered the glimmering light in Lin Ting’s eyes slowly dimming until they were no more. Clutching that memory, she was unable to say a single word.
Lin Feilu’s voice was very shallow as she spoke without any emotion, but her words were like a knife, cutting into the mother’s heart, “This child was conceived in your womb, he was made from your flesh and blood and he’s practically a part of you. Did you carry him for ten months painfully and carefully, while risking the dangers it posed on your life while delivering him, just to make him a pawn for power?”
Noble Consort Ruan shuddered.
Lin Feilu looked into her eyes before her tone was as light as a sigh, “As long as Noble Consort Ruan has even a trace of motherly love for the Eldest Imperial Prince, then it is time to let go.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIt’s time to let go.
Over the years, Lin Ting had said to her countless times, “Mother, just let it go.”
Whenever he said this, he would be rebuked and be taught a lesson. Every time he was reprimanded, the light in his eyes dimmed a little. Now, it was completely dark.
He no longer pestered her to let go as he used his own methods to end everything that troubled him.
She killed her own child with her own hands.
Noble Consort Ruan couldn’t remember how many times she cried today. This time, however, her cries were full of nothing but remorse. She cried while holding Lin Ting’s cold and weak hand, “But it’s too late…”
Lin Feilu sneered, “Do you know why Noble Consort got the slap from the Father Emperor tonight?”
Noble Consort Ruan was stunned and looked at the girl with tears streaming down her face.
