Chapter 572: I don’t have a sister

Village head Gu\'s eyes turned dark as she turned to look at the woman who spoke about Pei Yuyan and said, " You have to be kidding me, you all are not doubting my niece!"          

Gu Li took an aggressive step towards mother Qui looking rather unhappy and angry, her expression hard while her gaze was narrowed, " You are not pushing that blame on my daughter! She has nothing to do with this! I have taught her well——"     

" But she is not your blood is she?" Mother Qui countered. " You picked her up off after her mother who was a freak died, we all have seen how her sister Li Li turned out, she is crazy… I don\'t think Pei Yuyan would be any different than her."      

Li Li and Pei Yuyan were orphaned when they were young, their fathers died leaving them alone with their mother who was notorious for hitting her daughters. Li Li when she turned eighteen separated from the family while Pei Yuyan was adopted by Gu Li who didn\'t get married because of working in the army and didn\'t have a child of her own. She pitied Pei Yuyan and which was why she took the girl under her wing to be raised, after all the girl was alone and she didn\'t have a child of her own.      

" Li Li is a special case, everyone knows that she was born different and because of the hit she received in the back of her head, she got even crazier but Pei Yuyan is different! She is sane, there is no way she will do anything——"     

" Just because she is your niece you are willing to protect her, village head Gu," said another woman. " Are we going to forget the pranks she pulled on our kids when they were young?"      

Gu Li\'s lips thinned. " She was just trying to play with them, it\'s not her fault that the kids were all crazy enough to go and play at the back of the mountain. It is not like she was the one who pushed them off the cliff?"      

When Pei Yuyan was young she was often ostracised by the kids of the village all because she was slightly gloomy and hardly smiled at anyone.      

" But she was the one who took the kids to the mountain right?" Mother Qui stubbornly retorted. " She also used to beat the mers of the village and then take their stuff, she was used to stealing from them and then tearing their dolls into pieces. She even used to carve her name on the dolls and toys to let others know that she was well …the one who did it. I think that whatever is happening right now is slightly similar to what Pei Yuyan did and she didn\'t come with the group either. Isn\'t it because she knows that she will be questioned? That her big secret is out?"     

" She is sick! She has a fever after being in the water for so long!" Gu Li\'s eyes flared as she looked at the woman who was questioning her baby girl. " She might be a little different but that\'s all because her mother used to hit her all the time, just because she is a tad bit aggressive doesn\'t prove that she is the one who is behind this!"      

" Calling it a tad bit aggressive will be putting it lightly," whispered one of the women. " The last time she fought with someone, she went ape shit crazy on them and sent three women to the medical hall of the town."      

Gu Li tried to speak but she was stopped by Village head Gu who shook her head and then turned to look at the crowd. " We will take this matter as we are supposed to take it, for the time being, no one is allowed to speak about this to the mers, just keep a close eye on them, they are already in panic and I think the mers who are with Yu Dong will be the safest for the time being. Like Yu Dong said there is a chance that the murderer will make a move again and if she does then we need to be prepared to catch her."      

" What if it\'s really Pei Yuyan?" asked one of the village women.     

Village head Gu felt the gaze of her sister who was looking at her with pleas in her eyes but she still hardened her heart and said, " We will do it according to the laws, if she is the one who is behind this then as per the laws she will be beaten to death."      

….     

" Pei Yuyan, huh?" Yu Dong has been eavesdropping on the situation that was going on with the women of the village with the help of her spiritual energy and now that she had a suspect, it will be easier for her to move.      

She turned to look at Li Li who was notching an arrow in her bow and could not help but wonder why Li Li never mentioned Pei Yuyan, she pondered over it for a while before she asked, " Li Li, do you have a sister?"      

The latter paused in her attempts of notching the arrow and then shook her head, " No, I don\'t."      

Yu Dong\'s eyes narrowed upon hearing that answer.
