Farm Girl Turns Everything Around: Sly Husband, Let's Farm

Chapter 1720: Chapter 1719: Too Many Previous Convictions

Bei Lingsu never expected that the question Bei Yun wanted to ask her was this. She froze for a moment.

Seeing her freeze, Bei Yun narrowed his eyes slightly. “Aunt Lingsu, you know about Madam Gu’s matter, don’t you?”

As soon as those words were spoken, the stunned look on Bei Lingsu’s face vanished. She glared at Bei Yun. “Of course I do!”

“So the Soul Chasing Root inside Tong Sanlang was also expelled because he consumed the Divine Liquid?” Bei Yun asked again.

“That’s right!”

“Then why, at the time, did you appear so angry, so disappointed, so worried?”

“I was worried Tong Gongzi was putting on an act. The anger and disappointment were real—directed at you. You always manage to push the boundaries of what I can tolerate,” Bei Lingsu gritted her teeth.

Recalling the situation back then, she still couldn’t suppress her frustration.

A year’s careful teaching wasted on a dog!

“Since I repeatedly crossed your boundaries, why did you still choose to trust me?” Bei Yun asked.

“Because you’re a member of the Bei family. The Bei family has a responsibility to you. You simply strayed down the wrong path due to a lack of guidance during your childhood. If someone had guided you, you would have been a prodigy—a genius who astonished the world.”

Bei Yun was determined, possessing an unyielding spirit. At a young age, he managed to fight against the poisonous toxins within him, and as an adult, he began independently creating poisons and cultivating Martial Arts. He relied solely on his own abilities to reach his current position, mastering so many skills on his own. If he had been at the Bei Residence back then, what heights could he have achieved?

Thus, Bei Lingsu felt more than guilt toward Bei Yun—there was also regret.

A person like this, if they could be saved, should be given a chance.

“You should have been like me, but now you’ve completely stood on the opposite side, becoming a cautionary tale. I feel regret, but it is also the Bei family’s responsibility.”

“Now that Xiaomai has spoken like this, why are you hesitating? If you decide to turn over a new leaf, I can still take this matter on for you. The Emperor Emeritus won’t take action against you.”

“And then spend the rest of my life running a clinic at the Bei Residence?” Bei Yun asked.

“If you want to visit other places, I will take you there,” Bei Lingsu replied. “I’m younger than you. If you agree to change, I will be responsible for taking care of you in your later years. You can go anywhere you wish.”

“You’re speaking as if you’re my junior offering to take care of me in my old age,” Bei Yun said with a smile. But as he spoke, his nose stung slightly.

He’d always lived one day at a time. And now, Bei Lingsu was saying she would take care of him for the rest of his life. This feeling was really…

He had spent decades being beastly, and yet he could still have this privilege. Was Heaven showing pity for his suffering, sending someone to shed light in his dark world?

Why hadn’t he met Bei Lingsu the year his parents passed away?

What an exceptional elder, what an exceptional elder…

“I am younger than you, so I can indeed care for you in your later years. But you must truly change. You must stop harming others,” Bei Lingsu said.

“Do you trust me? Or will you seal my inner strength again like before?” Bei Yun asked.

Bei Lingsu fell silent for a moment at those words. “Your record is too troubling. Even if I choose not to seal it, others won’t agree.”

“They might even demand to cripple your Martial Arts entirely.”

Bei Yun: “…”

That scared him. “Wouldn’t that make me completely defenseless?”

“I will protect your Martial Arts,” Bei Lingsu said firmly. “But the condition is that you must keep taking your medicine. I must seal your inner strength.” Thinking of Bei Yun’s ability to stir trouble, she pressed her temples with a headache. “Your record is far too terrible. There’s very little I can do.”
