Chapter 488: Chapter 488

Ling Chuxia was almost dumbfounded by this slap; Ling Yunshu’s palm carried an immense force, as if she had used all her strength, showing just how furious she was at that moment.

Ling Chuxia only felt a metallic taste in her throat and a trickle of blood slowly seep from the corner of her lips, but she couldn’t even care about the pain, shaking her head repeatedly, "Elder sister, I’m sorry... I didn’t mean it, I... I really don’t know what happened, I..."

Before she could finish, Ling Yunshu angrily cut her off, "Ha, you don’t know what happened? Ling Chuxia, after doing such a despicable thing with your future brother-in-law, now you come to tell me you don’t know what happened?"

"Ling Chuxia, do you think I’m a fool?"

Brother-in-law... despicable...

These two words, like two heavy mountains, pressed cruelly on her heart, and Ling Chuxia’s face turned pale instantly.

Ling Yunshu’s eyes were filled with loathing and rage, the fury burning fiercely as her words grew more and more harsh, "Ling Chuxia, how could you do this to me? You and Shi Che are already divorced, and I, I’m about to be engaged to Shi Che. He’s no longer your husband, how could you... how could you be so lowly!"

Each word from Ling Yunshu was loaded with immense hurt, and Ling Chuxia desperately wanted to explain, but it was as if something was stuck in her throat, and she couldn’t speak; she could only shake her head continuously.

She didn’t do it intentionally; she really didn’t, and she didn’t know why this had happened... She truly didn’t want to do any harm to her elder sister.

"Before, when I asked you to leave, I felt guilty, I even blamed myself, because I had also lived abroad alone for so long, and I knew the hardships of living alone overseas. But now it seems my unease, my concerns were justified, Ling Chuxia... this is how you treat me, this is the way you treat me..."

Ling Yunshu’s hand involuntarily gripped Ling Chuxia’s shoulders tightly, shaking her violently; her fingers digging into her shoulders so forcefully that her sharp nails nearly pierced into Ling Chuxia’s flesh.

"I’m sorry, I’m sorry..."

Tears instantly streamed down Ling Chuxia’s face, falling unrestrainedly like pearls off a broken string; she didn’t understand why this had happened, but it did happen, and even... she was caught by her elder sister in the act.

How could she have the face to explain anything?

"Get out of here! Leave immediately!"

Ling Yunshu’s eyes were bloodshot as she stared dead at Ling Chuxia, her voice shrilly screaming, "Ling Chuxia, I never want to see you again, don’t ever show your face to me and Shi Che, even if... even if Madam were to pass away, I wouldn’t welcome an outsider like you to pay your respects!"

She could leave; she could also never appear before them again, but with Madam in her current condition, it was very likely she wouldn’t survive the next twenty-four hours, she couldn’t leave now, not right now!

"Sister, I will go, but please, I beg you, don’t make me go now..."

"Get out, didn’t you hear me telling you to leave?"

Ling Yunshu again interrupted Ling Chuxia furiously, forcibly dragging her downstairs.

Ling Chuxia was helplessly pulled away by her, with her strength being so great, she couldn’t struggle, and she was too weak to do so, only crying and pleading, "Sister..."

"Don’t call me sister, I don’t have a sister like you!"
