Plunder

Chapter 395: Chapter 395 She’s Going to Give Birth Chapter 395: Chapter 395 She’s Going to Give Birth Qiao En only found out about the incident from the news the following morning.

She locked herself in her room, staying alone for an entire day. When the servant called her for lunch, she didn’t go downstairs.

Although she shared a blood relation with Su Nian, there was no affection between them. Looking back on her journey, the hardships Qiao En had endured were mostly related to Su Nian.

She had hated Su Nian. If it hadn’t been for her, the child in Qiao En’s womb wouldn’t have been lost.

In this world, love is never lacking. Qiao En loved Zhou Jin’an, but if she had to choose between her child and Zhou Jin’an, as long as Su Nian let her child go, she would have been willing to give up Zhou Jin’an.

To truly love someone is not to selfishly possess but to cherish the time together, and if not, to deeply bless them.

Yet Su Nian became obsessed and, out of sheer self-interest, she hurt the innocent and caused harm to many.

Past events played in Qiao En’s mind like a movie.

She wasn’t the least bit heartbroken, she just sighed. After committing countless misdeeds, one must ultimately face retribution.

Of course, she wasn’t foolish. The tribulations that befell Su Nian surely contained elements of the unforeseen.

She wouldn’t question Zhou Jin’an. From beginning to end, she never asked a word. Husband and wife as one, everything Zhou Jin’an did was to protect their home and to keep her and the child safe. She understood it all.

She just needed some quiet, to sigh over this fleeting loss.

As dusk fell, Qiao En still hadn’t emerged from her room, but cries could be heard outside in the courtyard.

She went downstairs, where Sister Rong was supporting Auntie Jiang.

Tears streamed down Auntie Jiang’s face.

“My poor daughter, barely enjoying a few good days after coming out, then encountering such a catastrophe. As her mother, I had hoped she would live a better life, but little did I know, just days after I left, she was gone.”

Auntie Jiang cried as if her heart was breaking.

Qiao En left the house and walked straight toward Auntie Jiang.

“Mom, please restrain your grief and accept the change.”

Qiao En supported one of Auntie Jiang’s arms while Auntie Jiang looked at her with tearful eyes, “Yayun, tell me, how did my sister die?”

Qiao En fell silent, not speaking for a long while.

Sister Rong, however, spoke up, “Auntie Jiang, death cannot be reversed. The second young lady was not blessed with fortune. You, on the other hand, must look after your health. The young madam is about to give birth, and you’ve been distressed all day without eating a bite. The incident has already happened, so let’s not dwell on it too much.”

Sister Rong was speaking on behalf of Qiao En.
