Chapter 236 Metaphor
After so long, I didn’t expect that the two sisters would meet again in such a situation.
Neither of them was capable of fighting, and Yuan Jue was too lazy to have anyone tie them up.
But they were given a big cage surrounded by fully armed soldiers.
Even though so many things have happened in the meantime and the sisters have had inexplicable entanglements for many years, they couldn't help but gossip about each other at this moment.
The two of them sat on the ground with their knees hugged, and in front of them was the busy crowd on the battleship deck.
Yuan Jue sat in the main seat, with a dark space in front of him.
"I really don't like you. I call you a bitch behind your back."
Huh?! Why is she so vicious? Tianjiu thought Chen Junjun was just a little arrogant. I didn't expect her to be scolded like this!
"When did it start?" If it started from the time she entered the Marshal's Mansion, then... she would forgive her.
"It started when my family asked me to be friends with you."
Chen Junjun was wearing a prison uniform, the same loose and torn robe as Lu Jin.
Not pretty.
She smoothed her hair, trying to make herself look less disheveled.
But what she said was really a wake-up call and touched people's hearts.
Tianjiu actually had the illusion that he was being cheated on, broken up with, and heartbroken.
Has everything I've done over the years been in vain?
Eighteen years of living in another world, eighteen years of carefulness and caution. But in the end, there is a family that seems to be gone, a lost childhood sweetheart, and false sisters.
What has she had in these eighteen years?
So… "Why? What do I have that is worthy of your Chen family's attention?"
Tianjiu looked at Chen Junjun somewhat dejectedly, unable to guess what she would say next.
"Because you're stupid, I learned about the Shen family's movements through you. They're planning a marriage someday, tying the two families together. Isn't that what all these people are doing?"
Tianjiu was angry when he heard the first half of the sentence! How could she be stupid? She just often carried the habits of her previous life and couldn't turn around.
I was completely shocked when I heard the second half of that sentence! A marriage between the two of them? Ahhhh?
"That's not right! Don't you have a cousin who wants to get married?"
Chen Junjun was so speechless that he turned his head to look at the sky, wishing he could stroke his chest and let out a long roar.
"I told you you're stupid! Am I the only child in the Chen family? Do we have to get married? What's wrong with your brain?"
Oh, oh, oh, I'm so scared. Tianjiu thought that if they were to get married like his cousin and little Chris...
Oh my god, I feel uncomfortable all over and have goose bumps all over my body.
"Then you lending me notes before the exam, looking for me in the mountains when I got lost during the spring outing, and introducing me to Zhou Zhou to play together, were all fake." Tianjiu asked sullenly, his chin resting on his knees.
Chen Junjun was in a trance for a moment.
Resentment and jealousy gradually clouded her mind. She no longer remembered what she had done, nor how pure she had been at the time.
"Although we are both children who are not valued in our families. But your family just doesn't care. As long as you don't cause any big trouble, no one will bother you."
Chen Junjun was filled with bitterness. If she didn't speak out today, she felt that she might not have a chance.
Tianjiu straightened his back slightly, as if thinking about something.
"But I'm different. My father despises me for my low social status and average looks, and my maternal grandparents can't help me either. Whenever he sees me, he'll find a reason to scold me. Sometimes it's for walking too fast, sometimes it's for eating poorly. Not to mention school, exams, and making friends."
Chen Junjun sneered helplessly. What was the point of her saying all this? No matter how much others said, those who hadn't experienced it themselves could not truly empathize.
And those who have experienced it will understand it immediately if they describe a scene.
"He only knows how to scold me, but he's not that strong himself. The entire Chen family can't produce a talented child. The Chen family is doomed! He can't scold anyone else, so he can only scold me."
As he spoke, Chen Junjun seemed to have returned to the previous scene, excited and angry.
She suddenly turned around and looked at Tianjiu fiercely:
"But you're different. You're like the rat running around in the palace! You're also a loser, but because those high-ranking figures never bow their heads, you just sneak along the walls, living a comfortable life in secret!"
Hey, hey, hey, no! What kind of metaphor is this!
She's such a cute little cat! When her owner isn't home, she'll just hop around on the counter and table to entertain herself. If her owner finds her, she'll just lie there and act cute.
Rat? She, Chen Junjun, is the rat!
Tianjiu had never experienced what Chen Junjun said, but she had seen it. She could understand it, but she couldn't forgive it!
Her experience cannot be a reason for her to bully others or obey bad people to do evil.
"You choose your own path." Tianjiu didn't want to argue with her, but couldn't help complaining.
"Hmph!" Chen Junjun snorted coldly.
"Who would have thought you were so lucky! You were noticed by the Marshal!"
This is what Chen Junjun hates the most!
Aren't they supposed to live a miserable life together? Why is she the only one who defies fate?
No one noticed that when he was 16 years old, in the school anniversary photo, Tianjiu took a funny solo photo with the Marshal looking back in the background, with a faint smile in his handsome manner.
When she was 17, during the royal year-end celebration, a group of them, a bunch of useless people, were set up by the lake, and many of them fell into the water. But Tianjiu was easily picked up, saving herself from embarrassment. From the water, she saw a tall, cold figure hurriedly leave.
When she was 18, on the day the Duchess died, the marshal who handled the scene glanced at her so many times that she couldn't count them all!
Tianjiu felt that these stories were like heavenly books!
"You made this all up!"
Tianjiu got furious and raised his voice several degrees, causing the guard next to him to knock on the cage.
"It's up to you to believe it or not."
Chen Junjun rolled her eyes.
"I thought that with your worthless appearance, if you were really with the Marshal, you would be disliked sooner or later. I never thought that he would actually like a dull person like you!"
Ahhh! Tianjiu was really angry! She stood up and looked around, but she couldn't see anything to throw!
Either she's a rat or she's a taciturn person! Really, why?
“I obviously have my strengths too!”
"What are the advantages? Tell me!"
"I, I, I am kind-hearted! I, I love animals! I pay attention to hygiene!"
"Oh~ That's awesome! So you're a good kid!"
"The Marshal likes good kids!"
Uh... there's a hint of awkwardness in the air.
Tian Jiu's mouth was faster than his brain, and he didn't even have time to cover his mouth with his hands.
So embarrassing.
Chen Junjun snorted coldly and clicked his tongue, feeling completely helpless.
Yes, who would have thought that such a cold, noble, indifferent and distant person would suppress his temper, be patient, and treat this waste like a daughter.
On the contrary, he had no feelings for the bright and powerful Mu Xingchen, not to mention someone like her who was just normal.
Her family wanted her to seduce the marshal, but what seduction! She was simply asking for humiliation!
He is so cruel to those he doesn't like.
Chen Junjun would not tell Tianjiu what she had done, and the Marshal would probably not tell her on his own initiative either.
Such a shameful thing should be buried here and never known to anyone again.
"He will come to save you. In person."
Chen Junjun looked up at the lights in the distance outside the window that were getting brighter and brighter. She was really jealous, jealous to the point of going crazy.
But she also knew that their conversation was coming to an end.
"Xiaojiu, can you please ask the Marshal to take me with you?"
Chen Junjun suppressed all his emotions, finally looked Tianjiu in the eye, and asked sincerely.
She really wanted to live, even though she had nothing left.
