Chapter 1277 Li Xue might sever our friendship.

Feng Yi Lan paused as if she wasn't able to comprehend her words for a moment. Her brows furrowed as looking at her mother, she asked in a tone of disbelief, "You … you did what?"

Zhen Qinrou knew her daughter would not be accepting it. But she never planned to come front to reveal it. She just thought that once Li Xue would be gone, her every plan would reach success. She forgot to think that Li Xue wasn't the woman she could easily touch. Not just because of Feng Shufen but also for her daughter, who took the girl dearer than anyone else.

"Yi Lan, I just wanted …"

"You just wanted what? Have you gone crazy? How could you ask someone to assassinate her? Did you forget who she is? She has a daughter and a family. Her death would mean an end to all their happiness. Even if you hated my brother, I never thought you would be this vicious. How … how could you just hire someone to kill her?"

Before even Zhen Qinrou could say anything, Feng Yi Lan was snapped before looking at her in disgust. The nerves on her forehead became prominent as she could no longer bear seeing her mother's face. "You know that I never liked you, mother. But after today, let me tell you, you disgust me. I wish I had never had you as a mother. Your death would have been better than your life like this. I really wish you would have hired those men to kill yourself not to kill Li Xue"

She said and then turning her head away, she stood up and left and sauntered off without looking back even for once. But just when she was about to walk out of the room, she paused and said, "Even if I was Almighty with superpowers in my control, I would have never stopped my brother from punishing you. Because punishment is what you deserve for your every sin. And I will be eagerly waiting to see how you will be getting to your end. I would not help you rather would celebrate it, believe me."

Zhen Qinrou looked at her daughter's back as she left. In her ears, her words kept ringing. 'I wish you have hired those men to kill yourself, not to kill Li Xue.' Those words kept repeating themselves in her thoughts and before she knew it, she got up from the floor and rushed to search for something in the drawer. And not too long after, there was a sharp clip in her hand with which she was ready to slit her hand.

But just when she could do it, her phone interrupted her and she looked at it with fury. Keeping the clip aside, she took the call first, and just as she received, she heard the voice of Zhang Xiaotong come from the other side in desperation.

"Aunt Feng, you are right. Brother FenFen has come to know about everything. He has learned that you were behind all of it. Now, he would have to come after you and …"

"He would come and kill me." Zhen Qinrou said through gritted teeth. "I have known this Xiaotong from the very start. I won't believe you have called to tell me this."

"Of course not, Aunt Feng. I called you because I was concerned about you. After all, all of this you did was to help me. How can I leave you alone now that you are stuck in the situation?"

When Zhen Qinrou heard her say all this, she couldn't help but chuckle. "Xiaotong, I know I got played by you once, but believe me I am not that stupid to get into the same play twice. So, don't act, just tell me what are you calling me for?"

As she said that, something changed over the call, as the next second the tone of Zhang Xiaotong changed. Coming out manipulative, she said, "You sure are not that stupid, Aunt Feng in getting me right. But believe me, you are stupid to think that you can save yourself by just sitting back like that."

"You think you have left me with any other choice?" Zhen Qinrou said, and the next moment, Xiaotong spoke.

"Why not? I have better plans that can help you."

Zhen Qinrou paused for a moment. But then with bitter hesitation, she asked, "And what made you think that I will choose to believe you again?"

To which, Zhang Xiaotong simply chuckled with confidence. "You have no better choice than to believe me, Aunt Feng."

While at the same time, after Feng Yi Lan left the room of her mother, she was restless. She was feeling guilty even though it wasn't her fault. Li Xue was her best friend. How could her mother do that to her? If it had been some other woman in place of her mother, she would have not thought a second time before taking a knife and slashing down her head. But now how could she? That was no other woman but the one who birthed her.

Feeling suffocated, she felt nothing but confessing her sins was the right thing. Picking up the phone she dialed the number of Li Xue but no matter how many times it rang, the call was not answered. And the lack of response from the other side only dreaded her.

Was Li Xue upset with her? She wasn't answering her calls. She might have known who was after her attack.

As she thought, she became more desperate to call her. Soon, the call reached its limit, and she became tired of calling her. But her fingers still worked. In the end, she chose to dial someone else. The number was first on her contact list and the moment the ring went through, it was answered.

"LanLan, I already said you can decide the things of your choice. There is no need to ask me. I will like everything you choose." Qi Shuai's voice came from the other side and the warmth it had was enough to make Yi Lan finally show her vulnerability.

"Brother Shuai, what should I do? Li Xue must be thinking of severing our friendship. What should I do now? She has been the only friend I had, now if she also left me, what would I do?" She cried and Qi Shuai frowned at her words.
