All Worlds Beg the Villainess to Act Like a Human

Chapter 669: Chapter 669: Leave Fairy Matters Alone (28)

Speaking of Lann Zhen, Xuan Shuang paused for a moment.

Qiann Yan didn’t press for details, patiently waiting for Xuan Shuang to gather her thoughts.

The original master actually didn’t know much about these adopted sisters. Perhaps initially he understood them, but later these sisters all grew up and developed their own ideas.

The original master was obsessed with cultivation, rarely interfering in the sisters’ private matters, unless someone bullied them.

”Let’s start from when Chang Xian was bitten by the Spider Demon, after we left,” Xuan Shuang slowly began, ”As the eldest sister predicted, Chang Xian didn’t die later, and the poison from the Spider Demon mysteriously dissipated. Chang Xian’s body became much weaker than before, unable to indulge in revelries with his circle of friends.”

”Young Madam Chang had no feelings for Chang Xian either, and Lann Zhen undertook the responsibility of caring for Chang Xian. Madam Chang, seeing her dedication, reluctantly accepted her, finally refraining from making things difficult for her.”

”Chang Xian became despondent, finding the Chang Family’s presence dull, yet fearing death, he just muddled through each day. Lann Zhen worked hard daily, later becoming older than the Young Madam Chang. Chang Xian had no interest in remarrying, and under the pressure from the Chang Family, remained with the Young Madam Chang.”

”Young Madam Chang gave birth to twins, but her health was damaged, and she never had a happy day in the Chang Family. Everyone surrounded the children, no one cared about how she was, and she finally became disillusioned. After the children’s first full month, she shaved her head and left to become a nun, unwilling to have any further ties to the Chang Family, only wanting to live a peaceful life.”

At this point, Xuan Shuang sighed, having witnessed many things in the mortal world over these decades. Every person has their own helplessness; this place is truly not suitable for games. What you consider a game is someone else’s destiny.

She observed that Qiann Yan remained unphased by these matters, continuing, ”The tasks of caring for the elderly, Chang Xian, and the two children all fell onto Lann Zhen. Later, Old Master Chang thought she was decent and involved her in managing the Chang Family’s external business operations. This was only because Old Master Chang realized that Chang Xian couldn’t be relied upon.”

Those who didn’t know thought Chang Xian was devoted, envying Lann Zhen’s good fortune.

Only Lann Zhen kept her sorrows to herself, having ventured into the mortal world without experiencing true love, instead truly feeling the bitterness of human suffering.

She had long lost her initial feelings for Chang Xian.

Chang Xian pursued her, asking about the ancestral tea, and whether there was anything else from her family that could help restore his health. In those longing eyes, there was no regard for how she was doing, as if she finally understood.

When Chang Xian chose to have children with Young Madam Chang, she had also expressed the desire to but inadvertently saw the disdain in Chang Xian’s eyes.

In panic, she looked in the mirror, only then realizing that the current version of herself was already someone who no longer caught Chang Xian’s attention.

Lann Zhen managed the vast Chang Family, with the two elders treating her with some respect, and she single-handedly raised the two children.

Chang Xian’s health was frail, venturing only a few steps outside each day, afraid to go far. The two children grew up and eventually departed.

Later, Lann Zhen bade farewell to the two elders of the Chang Family, leading the two children alone, at times feeling a moment of confusion, as if seeing that protective older sister.

No matter what danger arose, the elder sister always calmly shielded them, never allowing them to suffer.

In the past, she only felt these things were taken for granted, now understanding that there was no such thing as taken for granted.

The elder sister didn’t owe her anything.
