After refusing marriage, she was pampered by the prince who acted as a shield.

Chapter 247: Sisterly Bond Broken

Seeing Lin Rusi's eyes suddenly turn cold, Lin Ruqin also trembled slightly.

She coughed lightly, looking awkward: "If you don't want to help, then don't. Why make excuses?"

As she spoke, she lowered her eyes, but accusation and displeasure filled her entire face.

Looking down, her eyes were still red at the corners, making her look incredibly pitiful.

At this moment, Lin Rusi just stared at Lin Ruqin in silence, and chuckled lightly: "Sister, I really shouldn't have been soft-hearted towards you."

She had originally intended to help her once more because of their shared experience.

But Lin Ruqin really didn't know what was good for her!

Thinking of this, she snorted coldly: "Sister, if I remember correctly, you were also involved in what happened between Princess Lin'an and Zhou Xun back then."

Lin Rusi stared intently at her. Although her tone was questioning, her words were full of certainty, clearly indicating that she already knew.

However, this was indeed the case; Lin Ruqin's actions did not escape her notice.

However, she didn't want to dwell on the matter at the time.

After all, she had thought about Li Zeyan's character and figured that she would suffer in the Third Prince's mansion anyway, so she didn't bother to pursue the matter further.

But now it seems that being soft-hearted towards her will only make her more unscrupulous and even take advantage of her.

Thinking of this, Lin Rusi slowly got up and squatted down slightly in front of Lin Ruqin, her face slightly cool.

Her hand touched the broken medicine bottle, and she murmured to herself, "What a pity, His Highness searched for so long to find it."

Lin Rusi's gaze was slightly cold, her eyes filled with displeasure.

At this moment, Lin Ruqin was also startled and somewhat stunned. She didn't know how Lin Rusi had found out about such a secret matter.

Could it be that someone deliberately said it out loud?

Just as Lin Ruqin was lost in thought, trying to figure out how to cover up her lie, Lin Rusi stood in front of her and said softly, "Sister, you still lie the same way. Your facial expressions don't lie."

She scoffed lightly, but there was no hint of a smile in her eyes.

Lin Rusi didn't know how to express her feelings, but she knew one thing: agreeing to her request was the most foolish decision she had ever made.

She should be more hard-hearted towards people like that!

She turned her back and coldly said, "Sister, I'll pretend you were never here today."

Upon hearing this, Lin Ruqin finally panicked and immediately looked up, only to see Lin Rusi's indifferent back.

She's not going to take care of herself anymore.

Lin Ruqin could see it and immediately felt flustered.

"You promised me!" Lin Ruqin panicked, no longer caring about her demeanor, and tightly grabbed Lin Rusi's clothes as if she wanted to tear them.

This made Lin Rusi frown even more deeply: "I have already taught you the method. I said that if you cannot find that gentleman, I can also help you find him, but that's all."

She's not some saint; Lin Rusi can't do something like repaying evil with kindness.

"But I can't use this method, otherwise I'll really be finished!" Lin Ruqin said anxiously. She still wanted to get married, so how could she let this kind of thing delay her?

Thinking of this, Lin Ruqin's eyes grew even more anxious, and she immediately said, "Sisi, please, for the sake of our past relationship, don't hold it against me, okay?!"

She bowed her head, her expression pleading.

However, Lin Rusi's last bit of affection had been exhausted.

"On what grounds? On what you did with Princess Lin'an?!" Lin Rusi retorted coldly, her face extremely grim.

Upon hearing this, Lin Ruqin's expression changed drastically, turning pale.

Or perhaps, because she felt guilty, she subconsciously turned her head away.

But then I realized that I had already been exposed!

Lin Rusi, who wasn't the type to soften her heart, immediately said, "Sisi, I was wrong, I was really wrong! I was just out of my mind and did this!"

Lin Ruqin quickly apologized, her eyes filled with panic, looking quite pitiful.

But looking at her, Lin Rusi only felt more and more mocked.

"If only I had known this would happen, I wouldn't have done it in the first place." Her voice was indifferent, and her beautiful face showed no emotion.

Lin Ruqin hadn't expected things to turn out this way, and her face immediately turned pale.

"Sisi, I really know I was wrong. I said the wrong thing. Please forgive me!"

But Lin Rusi only found the pleading words amusing.

"I won't help you anymore. I've already softened my heart once."

Lin Rusi's eyes were exceptionally cold, filled with disgust.

Time and time again, she has lost count of how many chances she has given Lin Ruqin.

But instead of gratitude, they were met with even more betrayal.

Lin Rusi believed she had done everything she could!

"Sisi, how can you bear to let me be ruined by that kind of man?" Lin Ruqin looked up and asked incredulously.

Upon hearing this, Lin Rusi merely sneered disdainfully: "Now you know you can't bear it? I can't bear it for you, but what about you?"

She questioned him coldly, but her eyes reddened slightly as she finished speaking.

"When you hired Zhou Xun to hurt me, did you ever think about having the heart to do it? When you used those methods against me, did you ever think about having the heart to do it?"

She tried her best to suppress her anger, but as she asked the question, her heart grew colder and colder.

She took a deep breath before coldly saying, "From today onwards, our sisterly bond is severed, and we have no relation whatsoever!"

Lin Ruqin never expected that Lin Rusi would speak so resolutely.

Her face immediately darkened: "Lin Rusi, stop being so self-righteous. This is all your fault. Do you know that I'm suffering for you right now!"

As she spoke, she stood up unsteadily, her already hoarse voice becoming extremely shrill, and each word she uttered was more unpleasant than the last.

After saying that, both of them were stunned, especially Lin Rusi, who immediately looked over.

"What do you mean by that?" Lin Rusi stared at her fiercely.

It was as if he was pondering the meaning of those words.

Lin Ruqin decided to go all out, since she wasn't planning to help her anyway, and there was nothing more to say.

"Let me tell you, the suffering I'm enduring here with Li Zeyan should have been yours to suffer!"

"You are the one who should have married Li Zeyan, and you are also the one who was beaten so badly by domestic violence that you are no longer human. It is because I took your place that you are living a good life."

Lin Ruqin roared angrily, venting all her innermost thoughts.

Lin Rusi paused upon hearing this.

She shouldn't know these things.

These are all things from a past life, how could this be...?

Lin Rusi frowned, staring at Lin Ruqin with a thoughtful expression.

Seeing her look over, Lin Ruqin sneered: "What are you pretending for? I don't believe you don't know. You should be secretly happy right now."

Having said all that, Lin Rusi simply took a deep breath and then smiled gently.

"Yes."
