Chapter 438: Chapter 438: Iron Blood Female Admiral VS Vengeful Female Deputy (Part 28) Chapter 438: Chapter 438: Iron Blood Female Admiral VS Vengeful Female Deputy (Part 28) Qi Lin fell silent upon hearing this.
Gu Shengyin did not urge her but simply stood there quietly waiting.
After a long while, Qi Lin let out a cold laugh, âMother?â
There was endless loathing in her tone, âIf it werenât for my mother, I probably wouldnât despise your Galactic Empire so much.â
âWhen my father was still alive, they would often argue. My mother was particularly domineering; she wouldnât allow my father to speak a word in favor of the Federation, and she especially loathed me, her daughter whose heritage lay with the Federation.â
âUntil now, I still donât understand why two people with such differing thoughts ever got together in the first place, or why they had me? After my father died, she became even more unhinged. She wasnât saddened by my fatherâs death at all, especially despising me, this âFederation personâ.â
âI may appear to have grown up perfectly normal, but who knows what kind of life I actually lived? During the day, Iâd dress up brightly to go to school, but when I got home, what awaited me was endless cursing and physical punishment. She was a person of standing, so there couldnât be any stains on her reputation. In public, we appeared as a mother and daughter with deep affection for each other, but in private, we both wished the other would just die immediately!â
Qi Linâs gaze was ice cold, âWith every beating she gave me, I hated the Empire even more. Later, when I learned the truth behind my fatherâs death, I wished all Empire people would die!â
âFor me, the invitation from the Federationâs intelligence agency was like a beacon, showing me what I would do in the futureâŠâ
Gu Shengyin stood silently and listened to her until she finished. She knew that everything that had happened here had been monitored for two years.
âWhere is the organization youâre part of located? Are there any other people involved?â
Qi Lin gave a bitter smile, âHow could someone like me know about such things? Every time, I would be asked to go to a different place to meet and to undertake tasks left by those higher upâŠâ
When everything was said and done, Qi Lin looked at Gu Shengyin expectantly, âGeneral, I have told you everything I know. You⊠â
Gu Shengyin nodded, âI will propose it to the Emperor.â
Qi Lin looked at her gratefully.
Gu Shengyin looked at Qi Lin with pity, âA woman tormented by hatred, she could have chosen to distance herself from that sick household after becoming an adult, to do anything she wanted, and to live a peaceful and tranquil life. Regrettably, she chose a path of no return.â
The next day, Gu Shengyin received news that Qi Lin had been secretly executed.
With this, the mission regarding the storyâs secondary character, Qi Lin, was completely finished.
The last words spoken by Qi Lin were also taken seriously by the Emperor. As a ruler, he could not tolerate the existence of such an underground organization within his Empire.
A thorough investigation revealed alarming results; even among the high ranks of the Military Department and the political world, there were spies from other factions.
Throughout that year, the Empire underwent a major purge, a period which history of the Empire would later call âThe Great Purge.â
However, all these had little to do with Gu Shengyin. As a staunch supporter of the Imperial Party, this fire could not possibly reach her.
She brought Enoch back to the Situ Family, undoubtedly causing a great shock to the entire clan.
The most promising young member of the Situ Family, Situ Jin had fallen in love? And her partner was a man of no renown! Even though he was very handsome, without capabilities, no matter how handsome a man was, he would probably be taught a lesson within minutes by the men of the Empire if he thought to pair up with the Goddess Situ Jin.
