A Vengeful Girl

Chapter 480 Do You Hate Me

It was not so difficult to figure out who had placed the lavender in the dining room, after all, Linda

already had some candidates in mind.

The September weather was still hot even if it had rained yesterday. Nevertheless, it was cool in the

evening. Linda took a deep breath of fresh air and felt much better.

"Come on. Let's go back now!"

Although Linda had left the Nalan clan, Lord Nalan still kept and maintained the Linda's Garden in the

Nalan clan's mansion for her. He sent servants to clean it every day, so it was very clean for Linda to

stay the night.

Inside the Linda's Garden, there had already been a bedroom for Anna. But since Linda had brought

Bun with her, she asked Anna to arrange a room for Bun.

In fact, if they wanted to find out who had put the lavender inside the dining room, they could ask

Nelson about that. Maybe, they could get some clues from him. Nelson was the Nalan clan's

supervisor. He was the one who took charge of everything in the Nalan clan, so he might know

something about it.

Since Nelson was friendly with Linda and he was deeply involved with the Nalan clan's matters, it

would be a good idea to ask for his help first.

It was still early, so Linda was planning to ask Nelson to come and look for her right now. She hadn't

come back to the Nalan clan's house for several months, so she also wanted to know from him about

what was currently happening in the Nalan clan.

Since Lily Jiang was living with Linda, Linda would often see Nelson around even though she didn't

stay with the Nalans anymore. The next semester of university would start in October, so Nelson

always went to Linda's place to visit Lily Jiang during the summer holiday.

"Anna, please ask Nelson to meet me in the plum garden. I will go there first with Bun."

Linda took a nap this afternoon, so she wasn't feeling sleepy now. She wanted to go to the plum

garden where the scenery was always very beautiful. Linda hadn't been there in such a long time.

When she was living in the Nalan clan's house, aside from the Linda's Garden, she liked the plum

garden the most. However, it was a pity that there were many unpleasant things that had happened

there in the past. It was the place where she was once pushed into the pond by someone.

Now, she didn't have to worry about such a terrible thing happening again because Bun was by her

side to protect her. No one would get any chance to harm her again.

It wasn't winter, so there weren't any plum blossoms in this place. Even so, the bare plum trees still

looked very beautiful. The plum blossoms bloomed in the cold winter and exuded a delicate fragrance

which attracted people's admirations. However, even without any flowers, the bare plum trees were

also so special and beautiful in a completely different way.

Sitting on the stone bench where she had always sat before, Linda closed her eyes and enjoyed the

breeze that blew past her. She felt that she could still smell the plum blossoms' delicate fragrance.

"It's so nice here, Bun."

"I also think it is such a great and wonderful place. I saw a big pond just behind, and there are a lot of

fish there!"

"Yes, I remember that pond. I had a terrible experience over there. A servant of the Nalan clan has

once pushed me into it. I nearly died at that time."

Although Linda said these words calmly, Bun was surprised to hear her. "What? Someone dared to

push you into the water? Inside the Nalan clan's house?"

"Of course, there are many people in the Nalan clan who want me to die! Some of them would try to

harm me out front, and some would make attempts to put my life in danger secretly..."

"We'd better not stay here too long, then. At least, no one will harm you if you stay in the Mu clan's

house."

"Even if some people want me to die, I'm not worried about it. I seldom live here and I'm only spending

one night here this time. After all, you and Anna are keeping me company, protecting me, so I know

that I will be safe. Do you want to check the fish out? You can go to the pond to see them. I'll wait for

you right here."

"Okay. I will go there to see the fish and will return in a few minutes. If anything comes up, please shout

for help. I will rush here at once."

Linda believed that she would not encounter any danger because Nelson would be with her very soon. Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

Also, the plum garden was a now restricted area. Expect for the Nalan clan's members, servants

weren't allowed to enter it. Thus, no one could come there to disturb Linda.

However, after Bun had left, someone with malicious intentions approached Linda. Linda was sitting

there, enjoying the breeze, but suddenly, she heard a woman speak in a high-pitched tone. Linda was

very familiar with the voice. Even though she hadn't heard it for a few months, it still sounded so

unpleasant.

"Oh! Linda, I'm so surprised to see you here!"

Without raising her head or opening her eyes, Linda kept on indulging in the breeze. She felt very

comfortable with it and didn't want that woman to interrupt her moment.

Seeing that Linda wasn't willing to talk with her, Rosy got angry. "Linda Xia, I'm talking to you now! Are

you deaf?"

Linda still kept silent and frowned, wondering why Nelson hadn't arrived, yet. Now that Rosy was in the

plum garden, disturbing her, Linda decided to leave. She thought that it would be better to tell Nelson to

go to the Linda's Garden instead.

"Linda Xia, I'm talking to you right now. Why won't you answer me? Do you think that it would do you

good if you keep quiet?"

Upon hearing her, Linda opened her eyes. She was morose as her enjoyment had been spoiled by

Rosy, but she didn't want to say anything unkind to her.

"Are you bored? Why do you follow me to the plum garden every time I come here? Do you find it

interesting to do that? Do you like me that much?"

Linda propped her elbow on the stone table, her head resting on her hand. She was amused by Rosy

who was bursting with rage.

"Who is bored? Linda Xia, don't be too smug. Do you think that grandfather will really keep doting on

you forever? Are you this arrogant because of that? Let me tell you something! You are in the Nalan

clan now, but you are just the daughter of grandfather's daughter. Besides, your surname is not Nalan."

Rosy went there just to say some offensive words to provoke Linda, which made Linda indignant. Linda

thought that if Rosy was displeased with the fact that Lord Nalan doted on her, she could look for him

and complain about it. Linda had no idea why Rosy always confronted her and quarrelled with her. At

the thought of this, Linda became even more furious.

"Do you hate me?"

Rosy replied, "Of course, I hate you. I get very angry whenever I see you. Who do you think you are?"

"Well, if you really dislike me, you can dig your eyes out. In this way, you will never see me."

Rosy was shocked by Linda's words. Without knowing how to retort at that moment, her blood rushed

to her angry face.

"What did you just say? Say it again!"

"I said that you can dig your eyes out. Don't you get my point? Would you like me to explain further?

What I have just said is so easy to understand, but you can't even comprehend it. Why are you so

stupid?"

Linda shook her head disdainfully and then shouted, "Bun, let's go."

She wasn't in the mood to argue with Rosy. It was a total waste of time to do such a meaningless thing.

She went to the Nalan clan's house just because Lord Nalan had asked her to come for dinner. Also,

she hadn't seen him for a long time. She had planned to spend the whole day with Lord Nalan

tomorrow to fulfill her filial duty. As for those who hated her or wanted to harm her, she would just

ignore them.

After all, she was pregnant, and her body couldn't deal with the stress and conflict. She thought that

she should not make herself unhappy because of such people.

When Bun came back, she saw a woman standing beside Linda. That woman seemed to be irritated by

Linda, which amused Bun.

When Linda and Bun were about to leave, Rosy still wanted to draw Linda back. She was unwilling to

let her off so easily!
