Jiang Zhiyue awakened, realizing she was the early-dying white moonlight female supporting character in a noble academy novel. She was beautiful but poor, delicate and obedient. In the novel, she w...
Chapter 480 You Overestimate Yourself
The air fell into silence for a short while.
Perhaps no one thought that Jiang Zhiyue still remembered this incident. Qin Si lay on his side on the bed, his wild shoulder and neck muscles slightly tense. This handsome face that seemed to have no other expression and didn't even bother to lift his eyelids, his brows couldn't help but tense.
"yes."
He didn't deny it.
Qin Si is a person with an arrogant, cold and mean temperament, but his meanness is disguised, and everyone only sees his arrogance.
Jiang Zhiyue simply didn't want to deal with this person anymore. She remembered this incident for a long time. Afterwards, based on the photos uploaded by everyone on LINS that night, she locked onto a black Rolls-Royce.
If Qin Si hadn't brought it up on his own initiative, I would have been fooled.
The man lowered his eyes, a hint of gloom flashing under his thin eyelids, "I saw you."
Although a long time had passed, Qin Si still wanted to tell Jiang Zhiyue that the night his fiancée, who was sitting next to him in a gorgeous dress, seemed like the matching template that his family had carefully set up for him.
But he passed over this setting and saw her at first sight, standing on the roadside holding an umbrella.
She was dressed neatly in the college uniform, with a faint smile on her face and gentle eyes, like the gentle evening breeze on a midsummer night.
Cool and extremely dazzling.
Every time I see them, they are like a flood or a beast. It is raining so hard, but they are chatting and laughing with others in the rain.
Qin Si wanted to ruin her smile.
Jiang Zhiyue pushed him away with all her strength, wanting him to leave, but the man's body was as solid as a wall and he didn't move at all. Instead, he grabbed her small hand and placed it on his chest.
"You turned me off, so what is this place?"
It was hard to imagine that Qin Si, a ruthless killer, would actually play childish tricks. The girl had beautiful curves, and the more she pushed him away, the closer she got.
Those eyes were dark and deep, and usually as cold as a knife, but at this moment they could turn into a hint of tenderness.
Jiang Zhiyue was just annoyed by his bad temper and teased her, so she deliberately said, "It's the erase button, it erased you."
To Qin Si, this sentence was tantamount to being ruled out. He had never coaxed a girl before, but he thought she was very cute when she was angry.
"It was my fault."
Qin Si's character has always been like this, he never makes excuses or denies.
Facing Jiang Zhiyue, he did not intend to continue asking for answers. Given her current mood, she probably wouldn't be able to say anything pleasant.
The man stroked her shoulders with his big hand, and then he held her and straddled her waist, "Zhiyue..."
He took another deep breath.
.....
At the same time, in the Chu family’s private secret hall.
Surrounded by towering grey walls, a strong smell of blood filled the air. In the dark and damp environment, various hideous torture instruments could be vaguely seen.
Under the dim light, the ground was covered with blood and heavy iron chains stretched across it. Only a small iron window let in a little air from the outside world.
There is no free breathing and light shining. The only thing that can break the silence is the metallic sound of the iron chains swinging on the wall.
Chu Xiao was forced to kneel on the ground by several people. His eyes were bloodshot and blood was constantly oozing from his wounds. His hateful gaze seemed to pierce through the handsome face opposite him.
Smoke was everywhere. Chu Junyue narrowed his eyes and blew smoke rings at him, "Are you going to confess?"
Chu Xiao laughed sarcastically as if he had heard a huge joke. "You are really addicted to abusing lynching. Grandfather handed over the three states to you, and this is how you continue his glory?"
Compared with the brutal beating with iron chains, the torture instruments in the dark hall are of various types and more cruel. The executioner burns the iron chains red with fire and whips them hard. The flesh of the victim is instantly peeled off. Continuous whipping can even break bones.
On both sides of the scaffold, two executioners held boiling iron chains, ready to continue the torture.
“Sizzle—sizzle—”
I seemed to be able to hear the burnt smell of sparks burning flesh.
"ah--!!!"
After one whip, Chu Xiao was in so much pain that he wished he was dying, but he still stared at Chu Junyue, as if he wanted to tear him apart and eat him.
"I want to see Grandpa! Chu Junyue, I want to see Grandpa! You abused me with lynching! You want to kill people to silence them!"
He refused to accept it! He refused to accept it at all!
Chu Junyue frowned, his temperament certainly had nothing to do with a nobleman, he looked more like a cold and cruel law enforcer.
He bent down slightly, his leather shoes stepping on the bloody ground, and said coldly: "You stole grandfather's military order code without authorization and handed it over to Lin Jun. At the very least, you betrayed the Chu family, and at the worst, you committed treason. If you really wanted to inherit grandfather's glory, how could you hand over the military defense deployment of Xinma Lanzhou to others?"
"I know you're still not convinced that the management rights of these three states didn't fall to your second wife, so you disguised yourself as a thug in the three states, causing damage and chaos everywhere, causing direct losses of up to 100 billion to the local economy, while your second wife's personal account has increased twenty times as a result."
"Grandpa didn't bother with you and let you go after a beating. How did you swear in front of Grandpa? How did you beg Grandpa to forgive you? Let Grandpa forgive you this time, promise to reform yourself, and be willing to go abroad to seek safety."
"Grandpa agreed, what was the result?"
Before Chu Xiao left, he stole the code for the deployment of military defense. If this secret is leaked to the hands of foreign enemies, the consequences can be imagined...
“How sad.”
Chu Junyue was rarely moved, and couldn't help but mocking him, "You overestimate yourself and underestimate grandpa. How can he easily let down his guard and trust a grandson who once betrayed the family?"
"What you stole was just a fake."
Chu Xiao's hands were tied, and the severe pain was like a flame devouring his flesh. He knelt on the ground with his whole face buried in the ground.
Suddenly, he burst into hysterical laughter, "Ahahaha, it's just as I expected! I should have understood this long ago. It has always been like this since I was a child and has never changed! No matter how hard I try and how much effort I put in, the things I desire are all fake!"
"You were unwilling to inherit the Chu family, so Grandpa turned to train me and gave me the affairs of the three states. But all this was just a carefully choreographed drama to pave the way for you! I am your stepping stone! He gave me hope, but then he ruthlessly wiped it all out!"
"Grandpa was on guard against me until the very end and never believed in me. No matter how hard I tried, I could never be better than you! It's just because you are the eldest son of the family and your uncle is Grandpa's favorite son. So, like my father, I will never be valued by Grandpa!"
"Why? Uncle and father are from the same mother, why should we, the second branch, always be inferior to you? We are all descendants of grandfather, why should there be any difference?"
“Why why?!”
