Becoming the Empress: Golden Finger Set Under My Bed-Chapter 107: Thirty Years Full of Love and Hatred

Luo Qu’s face suddenly darkened. She held the wooden puppet with one hand, and busy with searching for something. It was until she took it up that An Rushuang finally found out that it was a small knife flashing cold light. With its width as that of a finger, the knife was wrapped tightly by a layer of cloth except for the shining tip.

Luo Qu whittled the wooden puppet step by step with all her strength.

The puppet Bian Wen’s head suitable to smash herbal medicine just now had turned sharp enough to pulling a thread through it. Except for an eye barely recognizable, the whole face was completely ruined.

With her heart sinking all of a sudden, An Rushuang gritted her teeth forcefully. Even knowing Bian Wen had been put into prison, she still couldn’t help cursing him to herself.

How come they should pay the price for him?

Damned old man!

After giving a full vent to her anger by destroying the wooden puppet, Luo Qu regained her gentleness at once. She slightly lifted her fingertip and cast the badly damaged wooden puppet away.

There came a dull sound in the air which followed by a flurry of clatter. It seemed that something had toppled.

Two small things rolled to An Rushuang’s feet. She turned to them with a frown, finding another two wooden puppets similar to the one thrown away by Luo Qu just then. Both of them had been badly damaged, but the poor remaining was a little different.

It was evident that they were all made by the same person.

An Rushuang glanced at that side. Due to the dim light, she couldn’t discern what was lying on the ground. However, she couldn’t help gasping in shock when she saw the two wood puppets at her feet.

It couldn’t be true.

Was Luo Qu busy with venting her anger on these puppets in the past thirty years?

This was just what she thought off the top of her head, but An Rushuang was not sure about it. However, when she turned around, she saw Grandma Gu stuff a small piece of wood into Luo Qu’s fair hand which stretched out.

She slashed the wooden puppet again from its top with the sharp knife flashing a cold light.

Grandma Gu turned to An Rushuang, her eyes flickering with a tinge of helplessness, as if she was saying, “See the truth now?”

An Rushuang couldn’t help quivering in astonishment. Perhaps, Luo Qu was happy now after getting Bian Wen’s last words. She mustn’t mention Bian Wen’s name from now on. As for medicine learning, it was already hopeless with Bian Wen’s recommendation.

However, she must prevent Luo Qu from colluding with the second prince. If the ‘elixir’ was refined in success, Bian Wen would surely meet his final doom.

It was after a long time that An Rushuang finally spoke, “Since you hate him so much, why not ask him to his face or slap him directly? Or you would rather stay here like a living dead and give a vent to your anger by doing meaningless things like cutting these wood?!”

An Rushuang raised her tone all of a sudden. As clear as her voice was, all the people were stunned by her imposing manner. Gazing at An Rushuang at back, Ye Chengzhi wasn’t sure whether or not she intended to help his master...

Grandma Gu stared first at An Rushuang with her eyes wide open and then at Luo Qu. With her lip corners slightly twitching, she seemingly intended to say something, but failed in the end.

Luo Qu turned around to ‘see’ An Rushuang and chuckled with her eyes closed as an innocent girl. An Rushuang felt numb on her scalp, fearing that she would burst into laughter like she did before. 𝒇𝘳𝐞𝚎𝓌𝑒𝑏𝒏𝑜𝙫ℯl.c𝚘𝒎

Fortunately, Luo Qu stopped at once. Her chest went up and down violently. It seemed that laughing wildly also needed a lot of physical power.

With her smile vanishing, Luo Qu’s face turned icy cold. “Do you know... why Bian Wen refused to teach you medicine?” She asked coolly.

She uttered the two words ‘Bian Wen’ very peacefully, while An Rushuang actually took a deep breath. After taking a second thought, she decided to answer her with Bian Wen’s original words.

She said submissively, “According to Mr. Bian Wen, I learned medicine not because I want to save others’ lives. He refused to teach someone full of killing intent.”

Slightly curling her lip corners, Luo Qu sneered. “He was still that pretentious at such an old age.”

Upon hearing her words, Luo Qu almost could see the man standing elegantly at the door scolded her harshly and ordered her to get out: I would never teach a murderer medicine. You must stop practicing medicine from now on!

What a ridiculous and cruel man!

He deserved to be tortured to death. However, why did she still feel extreme heartache, as if thousands of ants were gnawing her heart!

Luo Qu clenched the wooden puppet. With merely one eye inscribed, it looked so much like a single-eyed man. She grasped the puppet tightly in one hand, and the other hand suddenly inserted the sharp knife into the back of her white hand.

The blood spurted out and tainted her wide gauze sleeves hidden in the darkness. Some of the blood dipped on the head of the wooden puppet. Its face gradually turned red after the puppet was soaked with blood, which looked very funny, like the ghost from the hell.

Greatly frightened, Grandma Gu seemed to shed tears, her face turning pale. Exerting herself to hold back her tears through biting her lips tightly, she took out a small case beside the bed and bandaged Luo Qu’s hand skillfully.

She did all these in silence, her eyes full of tears but none of them trickling down from her cheeks.

Gasping in fear at Luo Qu’s hysterics, An Rushuang also clenched her fists in silence.

After the treatment, Luo Qu took the knife again to cut the wooden puppet as nothing had happened before. When the puppet was shaped into a stick, she threw it away to the corner as she did before.

At such a cold place, An Rushuang and Ye Chengzhi’s inner clothes were actually soaked by their sweat.

“A’Si, I am tired.” Luo Qu murmured with a frown after a moment.

“Please have a rest, master. I’ll let them leave.” Grandma Gu said then. fre𝑒𝘸𝚎𝚋n૦ѵℯl.c𝒐𝘮

As if she couldn’t see the two guests (she really couldn’t), Luo Qu responded softly and lay down with the blood-tainted clothes on.

Grandma Gu turned to An Rushuang. Even before she spoke, An Rushuang said at first, “We will bid farewell to you,” she continued after a second thought, “We won’t disturb you anymore.”

Staring at Luo Qu, she thought that even Zhu Han came, it was almost impossible to persuade her for cooperation. Since the ‘elixir’ was not refined by her, there was no need to visit her any more.

Grandma Gu stared at them in silence with no evident expression on her face.

“You won’t come anymore, why?” Luo Qu shouted, lying on her bed.
