She thought Shangguan Xiu was intentionally avoiding her, since he hadn't said he would leave. He must be outside, and if he wanted to see her, he could see her right away.
So his long absence meant he did not want to see her.
She actually didn't want to see him either, but she still had some things she needed to clarify with him. But with him not showing up, did he really think she wouldn't dare to commit suicide?
Her hand, holding a shard, shook, and as she was about to slash her neck, the maid standing at the door watching nervously hurriedly called out, "Miss An, please don't be rash, the young master has gone out and will be back soon..."
"Forget it, it doesn't matter if he doesn't come. I won't kill myself. You all go," An Xiaomian said as she threw the shard to the floor and crouched down in defeat.
Her strategy had failed; Shangguan Xiu's absence meant that even if she really did commit suicide, it would be in vain.
