A Vengeful Girl novel Chapter 250

"Do you know how to play go, Linda?" Lily asked, out of the blue.

Linda was taken aback for a second, "Yeah, I do!"

She certainly wasn't a master of the game but only knew the basics.

"Let's play a round! It's still early." Lily then suggested.

"Okay." Linda nodded.

"Luckily we have a great view here in the plum garden, and it's not very windy today. Out here, we can enjoy the magical scenery while looking at the plum blossoms in the cold breeze. It's such a nice location."

"Great, wait for me! I'll go get Nelson. The Nalan villa is huge, and surely they must have a set of go!" For some reason, Lily's words sounded less sincere. Her eyes strayed from Linda as well.

It turned out Lily just wanted to find Nelson. It was a clever excuse that made Linda chuckle. She didn't point out Lily's pretense, but simply nodded and said, "Go on. I'll be here waiting for you."

Lily then trotted out of the plum garden.

Feeling bored, Linda crouched down by the pond and looked at the fish in the water. Because of the chilly weather, all the fish stayed at the bottom of the pond, and none of them would surface.

The water in the pond was somewhat warmer.

Next to the pond was a mounted chest filled with left-over grains. Everyday, the servants came by and fed the fish.

Right on cue, one of them walked towards Linda.

Linda waved at them, "You can go now. I'll feed the fish today."

The servant nodded and carefully reminded Linda that she shouldn't feed too much to them.

The fish would never feel full, so they would eat as much as they were fed. They could easily die because of this. Such common sense was not alien to Linda. She nodded to the servant to the affirmative.

The servant left as Linda grabbed a handful of the fish food, and started feeding the fish.

One had to admit, they looked quite pretty. 'No wonder Richard Nalan treasured them, ' she thought as she watched them eat.

Suddenly, Linda felt someone push her, and she tumbled straight into the pond.

The moment she fell into the pond, Linda turned and saw a figure dressed in white running away. Then, the person bumped their foot into a stone bench and fell on the ground.

But they didn't dare stay a second longer, fearing that Linda would see their face. The figure stood up and started running again, far away from Linda's sight.

Who pushed her into the pond?

Linda couldn't help but feel upset.

'Why do bad things keep happening to me?' thought Linda.

When Linda fell into the pond, she noticed immediately that something was off. The pond didn't seem deep because the water was really clear, but it was at least two meters deep.

She had thought that even if she were to fall, the water would not be above her waist. However, Linda couldn't reach the bottom of the pond even when she stretched out her legs.

After taking a deep breath, Linda calmed down. Luckily she knew how to swim.
