Song ii summoned all her strength, lunging fiercely with a sharp blade towards Ye Fan’s back.
She was a frail woman with no power to bind a chicken, yet the blade in her hand could cut hair with a single blow, an exceptionally sharp weapon. However, none of that seed important to her, as she didn’t consider that.
Her only thought was to end this matter quickly, so she could be free from the struggle and pain. She was desperate to end the tornt she was going through before making her move.
Song ii was ruthless, and when a woman becos vicious, it’s truly terrifying. Otherwise, there wouldn’t be sayings like ’the most poisonous thing is a woman’s heart.’
"I’m letting you die swiftly to spare you further tornt. I don’t want to see your accusatory gaze, so I have to kill you. I hope to deliver a lethal blow so you die painlessly," Song ii murmured.
Ye Fan had left his back exposed to Song ii, trusting her even in such a perilous mont.
He could never have imagined that by risking himself to save Song ii, he would instead be the target of her deadly attack.
"Thunk!" ca a sound, faint but unmistakable, of flesh being torn.
Traces of crimson blood splattered forth.
For Song ii, the sound was like muffled thunder, reverberating in her mind; taking this step ant she could never turn back.
Song ii’s blade pierced into Ye Fan’s back.
In that instant, ti seed to stop.
The guards ceased their assault voluntarily, leisurely watching unfold.
The elders gazed with hope; they sincerely wished that Song ii’s stab had killed Ye Fan.
After succeeding in her strike, Song ii hurriedly retreated, stumbling and falling to the ground.
Her expression beca apprehensive, filled with tension and unease.
Ye Fan turned to face Song ii, feeling the blade still embedded in his back, with a look of icy disdain.
Luckily, as he was moving to fend off the guards, Song ii’s strike lacked precision; otherwise, just with this stab, she indeed could have endangered his life.
Yet, even now, her strike had seriously wounded him.
Though not fatal, the injury from her blow was still remarkably severe.
"What are you doing?" Ye Fan stared at Song ii with indescribable coldness.
"I’m sorry, truly sorry." Song ii, her tears glistening, sobbed in apology, eyes flickering, unable to et Ye Fan’s gaze.
"Sorry? Do you think sorry helps?" Ye Fan responded with displeasure, "Sorry only comforts those who did wrong; it does nothing for the injured. Do you know that?"
"I didn’t want this, truly didn’t," Song ii cried, trying to explain, "They threatened with the lives of my entire Song Family; I had no choice. I just had no other option."
"You..." Ye Fan looked at Song ii, at a loss for words, feeling empty inside. Is this still the carefree Song ii from before? Her explanation only received a sympathetic gaze from him.
He coldly admonished, "Take care of yourself."
Song ii felt deeply pained, sobbing, "I know this is wrong, and it hurts you deeply, but for the sake of the Song Family, I’d rather act this way. Let bear all the suffering alone."
She was deeply hurt by Ye Fan’s indifferent gaze, feeling sorrow beyond asure.
"I’ve done what I promised you; I hope you’ll keep your word," Song ii looked at the elder and others before focusing her gaze back on Ye Fan, affirming, "If I had a choice, I’d rather stab myself than you, but I was left without options. The stab I gave you, I return it to you."
Song ii, enveloped in desolation, picked up a fallen blade from the ground and thrust it into her abdon.
"Foolish woman!" Ye Fan rushed forward, grabbing her hand, and loudly asked, "Who told you that the Song Family mbers were under threat? It’s completely baseless; how could you believe such nonsense?"
"My father said it; he wouldn’t deceive . My grandmother, my mother, my younger brother, and all the Song Family mbers were controlled by them," Song ii fervently explained, stunned by Ye Fan’s shout and spoke candidly.
"Nonsense! I surrounded them with my n; no matter how capable they are, they cannot threaten you, let alone all Song Family mbers. Even if they were stronger, they wouldn’t have the ti," Ye Fan calmly responded, "You’ve been tricked; to be precise, your father deceived you."
Listening to Song ii’s words, Ye Fan realized so insights associating with Song Tianba’s character. It seed highly probable Song ii was deceived; Sky Net wanted to threaten Song Family mbers, but ti didn’t allow for it.
There simply wasn’t enough ti; Sky Net couldn’t accomplish that.
Song ii and Song Tianba at Sky Net Headquarters wasn’t hard to understand. Perhaps Sky Net exploited hatred between him and Song Tianba, collaborating to achieve their goal. Song Tianba had his reasons to seek Sky Net’s help, so they could reach an agreent.
"What? Impossible, my father wouldn’t lie to ," Song ii fell into deep grief, her spirits plumting.
Ye Fan’s words instantly shook her trust towards her father.
Ye Fan took the blade from Song ii, resignedly stating, "You’re truly foolish, always acting foolishly."
"Father, where is my father?" Song ii urgently asked, looking towards the elder and others.
"Song Tianba, stop hiding, co out," the elder called out calmly.
After all, they wouldn’t survive, so their arrangent with Song Tianba didn’t matter. Ultimately, they simply maximized their use of Song Tianba, leading to Song ii’s ordeal.
Song Tianba sluggishly erged from a corner, his expression grim and unwilling to et his daughter’s gaze.
Earlier, when Song ii attempted to harm herself, Song Tianba was terrified, rushing out frantically, only to hide again once Ye Fan had stopped her.
"Father, did you deceive ?" Song ii’s face lined with sorrow, she asked loudly.
"I..." Song Tianba faltered, unable to reply.
"Let tell you, Song Tianba’s words were indeed deceiving you. It’s true. It was Song Tianba himself who ca up with the idea to counter Ye Fan. Once Song Tianba learned we threatened Ye Fan, knowing Ye Fan was likely to fight us in a deadly battle. He believed Ye Fan would surely die, so he gladly cooperated with us," the elder chuckled.
