Cannon Fodder Group Ch.137

Chapter 137 – Lin Wangshu, you are really shameless!

Lin Wangshu didn’t know what Xu Jinning meant by that sentence, but her intuition told her it wasn’t something good.

“It’s nothing,” Xu Jinning shook her head.

She sat on her own bed, looking at Lin Wangshu, and said bluntly, “You came in like this on purpose, you specifically came to find me, right? Come on, what do you want from me?”

Lin Wangshu probably didn’t expect Xu Jinning to speak to her so bluntly, looking completely unafraid and unfazed by her, not nervous at all.

It was completely different from what she had seen a few months ago, submissive, timid, completely different.

Like a different person altogether.

“You seem somewhat different from the person I met before.”

“Oh, really? So, is this change in me good? Or do I still need to be careful, timid, and submissive like before, so that you’ll be satisfied with me?”

Lin Wangshu didn’t expect Xu Jinning to speak so sharply now, as if she suddenly had confidence.

Honestly, facing this Xu Jinning, Lin Wangshu felt a bit lost.

She had imagined that when facing Xu Jinning, she would start by suppressing her, belittling her to dust, and then look down on her.

But now it felt like Xu Jinning had taken control.

However, Lin Wangshu was sure that this Xu Jinning was the same as before, just that maybe something had happened in the past few months, causing Xu Jinning to change. After all, her family’s attitude towards her had changed completely, hadn’t it?

Looking at Xu Jinning in front of her, so confident and seemingly not caring about her at all, as if she were a dispensable person, Lin Wangshu couldn’t help but feel that the Xu Jinning before her now was merging with the rich young lady Xu Jinning she had dreamed about.

And she, in turn, had become Xu Jinwen, who needed and wanted to look up to Xu Jinning.

With the changes in the Xu family, Lin Wangshu’s heart was suddenly filled with boundless resentment.

She decided not to pretend anymore.

“It’s you who took away my parents’ and siblings’ love, right? It’s because of you that they ignore me and don’t care about me.”

“You’re worried they’ll be taken away by me.”

“After all, for fifteen years, I was the one living with them, the one they cherished and loved was me.”

“You must be very jealous and hateful.”

Xu Jinning looked at Lin Wangshu’s expression, becoming gradually sharp and cutting.

Lin Wangshu finally stopped beating around the bush and started speaking truthfully.

But hearing this truth, it sounded so unpleasant.

“Took away? Lin Wangshu, don’t you think you’re twisting the truth here?”

“If we’re really going to use the term ‘took away,’ then it should be you who took away my parents and siblings.”

“It was your parents’ scheme, deliberately swapping us, allowing you to enjoy the happiness that should have been mine.”

“Now, my parents and siblings are just correcting a mistake. What’s wrong with caring for their biological daughter and sister?”

“When did my parents and siblings, who you’ve taken away for over a decade, become yours? And how does their concern for me become me taking something away from you?”

“Lin Wangshu, you really are domineering and unreasonable.”

“You, just like your parents, are selfish and heartless, that’s why your parents could deliberately swap children for fifteen years and mistreat another family’s child. It’s also you who shamelessly claim things you stole from others as your own and won’t allow others to take them back.”

“Lin Wangshu, you knew long ago that you weren’t part of the Xu family. You even wrote a letter to your biological parents to confirm it, didn’t you? You knew why they swapped you deliberately, but you kept it hidden, continuing to enjoy everything that shouldn’t have belonged to you until your biological parents took you back.”

“Lin Wangshu, you’re really shameless!”

The reverse accusation from Lin Wangshu had truly infuriated Xu Jinning, who had been holding back her anger. Now, she couldn’t hold it in anymore.

She tore off the facade, revealing what the Lin family had done.

She also exposed Lin Wangshu’s actions.

Since Lin Wangshu was so shameless, why bother giving her face?

Xu Jinning found it strange that she could speak about these things in front of Lin Wangshu without being restrained.

Lin Wangshu’s eyes widened, momentarily stunned.

“You, you…”

“You want to know how I know about these things?”

Xu Jinning stood up, facing Lin Wangshu with a calm expression. “I can only say this: if you don’t want others to know, don’t do it.”

“And also…”

“Those who do evil deeds will eventually face punishment and retribution. It’s not a matter of ‘if’ but ‘when.'”

Retribution!

Those few words exploded in Lin Wangshu’s mind in an instant.

At that moment, flashes of images crossed her mind.

Xu Jinwen plotted against Xu Jinning in various ways, even pushing her down the stairs, and then…

It was a man who pushed her, breaking her fingers one by one before throwing her into a den of monsters, subjecting her to endless torment, and only then did he call the police, accusing her of killing Xu Jinning.

In the end, Xu Jinwen was executed, closing her eyes forever.

But in that moment, Lin Wangshu’s gaze became hollow, lost.

In that moment, she seemed not to be herself, not Lin Wangshu, but transformed into Xu Jinwen.

And before her stood Xu Jinning, the one she resented and envied the most.

What she despised most was Xu Jinning’s haughty attitude.

She loved nothing more than pulling Xu Jinning down, shattering her pride, dignity, and taking away everything she had.

To make Xu Jinning die!

She was doing the right thing.

In this world, only one of them could exist between her and Xu Jinning.

That person must be her!

“You’re talking nonsense, Xu Jinning, shut up!” Lin Wangshu’s voice suddenly raised.

Her eyes even reddened due to her intense emotions.

She breathed heavily, glaring at Xu Jinning, her eyes filled with jealousy and resentment.

Xu Jinning was taken aback by Lin Wangshu’s sudden change.

It’s like someone with manic tendencies suddenly being provoked and having an episode in an instant.

And the next moment, Lin Wangshu’s actions aligned perfectly with Xu Jinning’s thoughts.

Before Xu Jinning could react, Lin Wangshu suddenly rushed towards her and reached out, forcefully pushing her down.

Xu Jinning was caught off guard. With Lin Wangshu pushing so hard, her balance was lost, and she stumbled backward, falling down.

She fell directly onto something conveniently placed under the bed’s legs — a brick.

A sharp pain ensued…

In an instant, Xu Jinning seemed to be back in the present, recalling the scene just before her death. She was also pushed down the stairs by her step-sister, hitting her head on the corner of the stairs.

Xu Jinning’s vision darkened. Just before losing consciousness completely, she seemed to see her mother and siblings rushing in, their faces filled with fear, nervousness, and concern as they approached her…
