President’s Sweet Wife novel Chapter 57

"I did it! But why? Why you have come to destroy me again?

Do you know how hard it was for me to be the queen, how hard it was for me to be the Empress Dowager?

Why can't you let me enjoy it a little longer when I can finally enjoy the feeling of being above others and don't have to be looked down upon?"

Crying, shouting, she shed tears.

Fanghua Xie didn't say anything.

She looked at her once beloved sister for a moment, and then suddenly smiled.

“You said nobody loves you? When you were a child, you stole Dad's jade fan. Who was the one to get beat for you?

When you were ten years old, you fell into a pond and nearly drowned. Who risked the life to save you?

When you were fifteen years old, we were taken together to the DL country..."

There was a sudden break in her voice, as if she had been reminded of some terrible memory.

Those clear and cool eyes caught a scarlet, with deep disappointment and hatred.

"On the way, how many times have people tried to defile you? Who protected you again and again? Who was fighting them to death with a knife? Who was it! To protect you even if it cost me my own innocence?"

And Liuse Xie was in a trance.

She looked at Fanghua Xie blankly, as if with her sonorous words scene by scene flashed those long-lost past.

When she was young, she was suddenly subjected to family incident, and before she knew what was happening, she and her sister were taken to the DL Country.

All the way, her sister taught her hide her beauty with plaster, so that the thief would not think of her.

But she was too fond of beauty, and though she said yes, she did not like it.

Finally, one night, when everyone was asleep, she quietly washed the plaster off her face with water.

She combed her hair as she admired her beautiful face in the water.

But at that moment the soldiers behind saw her and rushed towards her as if they had found a rare treasure.

She was so frightened that she kept screaming as hard as she could.

In the end, her sister came out to save her.

She did not know what her sister had told the soldiers.

Later, the group of soldiers stopped pestering her and took her sister to the woods behind.

She went back to sleep and woke up the next day. Her sister came back with bruises on her face, torn clothes and blood on her hands, but she said nothing had happened the night before.

She didn't think much of it at the time. She just wondered why she hadn't seen the soldiers since.

The young girl did not know what had happened, but now she was in her thirties.

She already knew what had happened that night in the woods.

It was just that she was not willing to admit and face it, as if the truth that made her regret would not exist as long as she avoided it.

Liuse Xie looked at her sister and suddenly began to laugh.

And the laughter turned into tears.

It was like a wild animal's crying, with a shrill anguish and remorse.

A soldier came trotting up with a wooden box in his hand.

"Your Highness, the seal has been found."

Fanghua Xie took it, took a look at it and nodded.

She turned and went out, leading the men.

Behind her suddenly came a sad and shrill roar, "sister!"

She stopped, but did not look back.

The setting sun shone in from outside the hall, putting a golden glow on the young female general. Her figure was as tall and straight as a pine, like the way she had been taught to practice guns when she was young.

"Sister, I was wrong! I was wrong. Please spare me! We're sisters! You can't kill me, I'm your sister!”

She fell on her face and crawled all the way, with tears and snot mixing. She no longer looked like the Empress Dowager of DL Country.
