As Ye Wei never liked Wolf, she was a tad worried about his cunning. Back when she was on the island, she really detested him, and Chu Li, Eleven, and the others did not particularly like him either. The children's perception of him as a scheming and vicious person was particularly accurate.
When Old Witch was not around them, Wolf was no less lenient toward them. If it weren't for their lucky stars on their side, it was afraid they would not be able to endure his twisted training. It was also good that they went under Old Witch's wings eventually.
"Master, will he appear?" Eleven was as worried about the same issue. With his current whereabouts a mystery, one did not know how long he would take to travel. With the element of surprise on his side, one wondered what tricks he had up his sleeve.
"Relax, he will certainly turn up, " Su Ruyu replied immediately."Before he does, you all will have to think of how you would settle Kahn."
"Alright."
Su Ruyu nodded before turning to Su Man and asked, "Man Man, where is Daddy and Mommy's grave?"
...
With two bouquets of lilies in her hands, she went to visit Daddy and Mommy Su whose graves were originally in the Su's mansion's backyard. When Su Man's status as royalty was restored, he moved his parents' bodies to this cemetery.
It was very quiet and spacious.
Su Ruyu went alone whereas Mo Shitian waited for her outside. Although he wanted to pay his respects to Daddy and Mommy Su, Su Ruyu stopped him as she wanted to tell her parents something private.
Besides, Mo Shitian was somewhat responsible for the calamity that befell the Su family. Her parents did not like Mo Shitian. That, along with how he was an accomplice to their demise, led her not wanting him to appear before her parents' grave.
Mo Shitian was not particularly fazed by it as Su Ruyu was the only thing in his world. He had no qualms not paying respect to Daddy and Mommy Su. If Su Ruyu did not allow him to go, he would not go. There were no hard feelings or unhappiness on his part.
He knew that he was at fault for what happened back then, so it made sense that Su Ruyu did not allow him to pay respects to her parents.
"Daddy, Mommy, I am back. I'm sorry that I only visited you now." Su Ruyu smiled."You must have been blaming me all along. As your daughter, I am very sorry about that. I will visit you and pay my respects during your death anniversary from now on."
As a daughter, to only pay respects to her parents after so long was negligence on her part.
Her mother had hit her without rhyme or reason, and she was filled with hatred and anger toward her parents for not believing her and for siding with her sister. But when she looked at their graves, her only wish was for them to come alive again. If she had her wish, she had no qualms being beaten every day.
"Elder sister, Man Man, and I survived. We are... good, " Su Ruyu said with gritted teeth as she told what had happened about herself, Mo Shitian, and the children again.
However, she made no mention of the grudges between the sisters as she did not know where to begin.
As steps came from behind her, Su Ruyu frowned and coldly said, "Didn't I tell you to remain outside?"
As the steps were very light, Su Ruyu could not tell whether they were Mo Shitian's steps and hence turned back to see Su Ruhua carrying lilies and looking at her from a distance away.
Her chin had become much sharper, her eye bags much more visible, and her face was much paler. She seemed to have lost her gorgeousness and became much more haggard to the point she seemed to have aged in an instant.
Su Ruyu gently frowned and turned away. Su Ruhua came over and slowly put down the lilies before she softly spoke to Daddy and Mommy Su. Su Ruyu only listened on emotionlessly.
She rarely came back to visit her parents, and she did not have an easy life all these years.
Elder sister...
Su Ruyu told Daddy and Mommy Su about what happened back then and apologized to them for how she hid the truth from them back then. Su Ruyu, in her tempestuous emotions, closed her eyes. Who exactly had a harder time all these years?
It was her elder sister, no? All the remorse, guilt, conscience-pricking, loss of her children, along with how she lonely searched for her—she knew all these, and she tried to tell herself that they were all victims of fate who were part of its cruel game.
However...
When she thought about those times that should not have been, the kinship, lives, children, beloved, she felt that she could not forgive her. What should not have happened actually happened!
"Xiaoyu, are you really unable to forgive your elder sister?" Su Ruhua gently asked. One knelt before their parents' grave whereas the other back-faced her. A deep divide seemed to run between the two.
Ignoring her, Su Ruyu walked out of the cemetery alone without turning back.
Su Ruhua silently sighed behind her.
After she entered the car, Mo Shitian was about to drive off when Su Ruyu stopped him. Mo Shitian raised his eyebrows in incomprehension. Su Ruyu said, "Let's wait for her to leave first. My elder sister is not as capable a fighter as I am. She is clearly no match for Kahn, and she will be in danger if she runs into Kahn."
Mo Shitian looked at Su Ruyu deeply."Elder sister? I thought you would never forgive her."
"We are still sisters despite what has happened." Su Ruyu plainly smiled before she suddenly squinted. There were a few figures hidden within the woods above.
"Save it. There are four of them who are pretty capable, " Mo Shitian, who had long figured out the situation, said.
The two of them waited for a very long time before Su Ruhua came out of the cemetery. Su Ruhua was slightly surprised at how they had yet to leave. Su Ruyu wound down the window and said, "You drive ahead of us."
Su Ruhua, hearing it, instantly understood and quietly got into the car.
The few of them seemed to have tailed them to the cemetery and did not act. Su Ruyu was extremely cautious about them suddenly shooting, but all was calm. She heaved a sigh of relief.
"Kahn's disciples are not too shoddy, " Su Ruyu solemnly said.
...
Kahn saw the pictures Meng Lianying and the others gave him before he squinted dangerously. 'Old Witch, so you are indeed in Riyadh. ' The two women in the pictures, save their eyes, were extremely different. He was able to identify who Su Ruyu was. It turned out that he approached the wrong person back then. But that didn't matter.
Even if she were not Su Ruyu, she was still kin to Su Ruyu. Consider it her luck that she was not killed.
"Dear master, I was about to look for you when you appeared right before me." Kahn coldly laughed. He found it hard to believe that the Top Terrorist Organization's training commander was in Riyadh, but little did he expect it to be true.
While he did not know why she came to Riyadh, she'd better not think of leaving Riyadh alive.
"Zero, who is he?" Meng Lianying was in shock when she saw Mo Shitian, who extremely resembled Mo Ye.
Kahn coldly laughed."Whatever. Gather the men."
