"Yu... Yu Qiao!" Chen Baozhu screamed in shock. As Yu Qiao spoke, she gradually remembered what she had done to her. She felt as if she had been struck by lightning and fell to the ground.

He crawled two steps, staggered to his feet, and stumbled toward the door, roaring, "Is this how the village elders treat their worthless children?!"

"If you hate someone, you should hate Zhuang Yaozu!"

Yu Qiao grabbed Chen Baozhu's hair, her expression cold and terrifying, staring at her menacingly. She pressed her tongue against her back teeth and said through gritted teeth, "So, whether they are the murderer or an accomplice, I will not let any of them who have hurt me go!"

As soon as she finished speaking, Yu Qiao shoved the burning cigarette butt directly into Chen Baozhu's left eye.

"ah!"

The burning pain stung her most sensitive eyeballs, and Chen Baozhu let out a heart-wrenching wail.

Like a pig struggling wildly during the Lunar New Year, it gripped Yu Qiao's wrist tightly, kicking her, cursing her, and pulling at her with its hands: "Yu Qiao, you bitch!"

Chen Baozhu let out a heart-wrenching sob, her face contorted in agony: "You will die a horrible death! You will be punished!"

Yu Qiao stared blankly at Chen Baozhu's face, which was contorted with pain. Her eyes were icy cold, as if she could see through Chen Baozhu her own face, twisted and contorted with pain, when she was forced to have her spleen removed without anesthesia.

At that moment, all she could think about was that she wished she could die on the operating table.

She fainted from the pain and was forcibly revived by the doctor.

She could clearly feel her flesh being pulled and cut by the scalpel...

The people who caused all this, however, ate and chatted indifferently, even describing her ugly behavior, as if they wanted to tell everyone in the entire Reed Village.

Countless gazes of disgust, disdain, and mockery were like a dagger slowly torturing her.

Yu Qiao bit her lower lip so hard that it broke, and red blood flowed out, wetting her lips.

With his phoenix eyes slightly narrowed, he forcefully shoved the cigarette butt into Chen Baozhu's eye socket again.

With a "bang".

Chen Baozhu was kicked hard in the abdomen by Yu Qiao and sent flying five meters away, her lower back hitting the sharp corner of the table!

The pain felt like a sharp steel needle piercing Chen Baozhu's nerves mercilessly. Cold sweat poured down her face, and she fainted from the pain, her eyes rolling back in her head.

Zhuang Yaozu was so frightened by what he saw that he trembled all over, and his blind eye sockets seemed to be throbbing with pain.

He lifted his leg to run.

“I didn’t tell you to leave.” Yu Qiao reached out and grabbed an iron rod, glaring at Zhuang Yaozu with a sinister expression as she approached him.

"Why me of all people!"

She grabbed Zhuang Yaozu by the neck and questioned him, her phoenix eyes clouded with a thin layer of mist due to extreme sadness and anger, and her upturned eyes were scarlet.

Zhuang Yaozu couldn't breathe; his lungs burned from the lack of oxygen. He wailed and begged for mercy, "I just thought you were pretty, so I kidnapped you. If I had known you were a rich man's daughter, I wouldn't have taken such a risk..."

With a "snap".

Zhuang Yaozu received a hard slap on the face from Yu Qiao, and his thin, sharp face immediately turned red and swelled up.

Yu Qiao's forehead was covered in cold sweat, her eyes were bloodshot, and she could no longer suppress the wild beast roaring in her heart. She gripped the iron rod and smashed Zhuang Yaozu's hands and feet hard.

The wailing and cursing came from Zhuang Yaozu's throat, gradually turning into heart-wrenching cries of pleas for mercy.

As darkness fell, the sea became calm and the moon was full, its bright light shining on the cruise ship. The only sounds were the rolling waves and the cries of men and women.

On the third-floor window, an old, dark hand pushed open the window, and then suddenly disappeared the next second.

At the same time, the sound of a heavy object falling to the ground was heard.

Yu Qiao's icy, chilling voice rang out lightly: "Crying?"

"What do we do later?"

About half an hour later.

Yu Qiao locked the door from the inside.

Her long, slender, fair legs slowly lifted, her eyes still tinged with the excited crimson of bloodlust as she gazed intently at the deep sea.

Her fair face was covered in sweat, with a few red bloodstains on her cheeks. Her chest heaved slightly as she breathed heavily, but her lips curled into a smile.

Looking up at the bright moon hanging in the sky, the salty, damp sea breeze ruffled her long hair and swept across her bright, excited eyes.

It's not over yet.

Chaotianmen Wharf in City A.

The burly bodyguard, Fang Jiaojiao, stood trembling behind Shen Zhao. She swallowed hard and said in a very low voice, "Young Master, we've taken down that old scoundrel Zhuang Yaozu's den. I've already given them a heads-up; they won't have an easy time in there."

Shen Zhao stared coldly at the sea with her peach blossom eyes, her long eyebrows furrowed, revealing a delicate yet sharp-tongued beauty.

Upon learning that the baby was Yuan Jiang, he immediately dispatched people to investigate and even contacted that person, thus uncovering clues based on Zhuang Yaozu's subtle hints.

They immediately raided Zhuang Yaozu's hideout, finding a dozen or so young boys and girls in the stinking, filthy pigsty.

Shen Zhao felt a tightness in his chest, as if he had been thrown into an endless deep sea, or stepped into a dark and mysterious abyss...

He slowly closed his eyes and said sarcastically, "Kick their spleens until they're ruined."

"No anesthesia allowed, just cut it off directly."

Fang Jiaojiao hesitated, as if she wanted to say something but then stopped.

A shadow fell over Shen Zhao’s eyes, and sweat beaded on his white forehead. His fingers had been clenched ever since Yu Qiao disappeared.

Veins bulged on his long arms hidden beneath his white shirt, and he was constantly sweating.

His face was as cold as ice, and his voice was as venomous as ever: "Speak."

He knew that doing so would not make up for the harm Yu Qiao had suffered, but weren't all of Yu Qiao's misfortunes and the misfortunes and sufferings of other children caused by these people?

It's a miracle that Yu Qiao is alive. What about the others? Are they still alive? Can they still openly accept the beautiful side of this world?

They had just begun to understand this world when these evil people broke their wings.

Shen Zhao felt a tightness in his chest and his eyes were dry, as if tears were about to well up.

He was heartbroken and even wondered why Yu Qiao was the one suffering all this instead of him.

Fang Jiaojiao, the big guy, didn't notice Shen Zhao's emotional change. She just clicked her tongue thoughtfully twice and asked hesitantly, "Young Master, what men actually value most is their kidneys and scrotum. How about we change them?"

Fang Jiaojiao was once a champion in an underground boxing ring. However, her opponent in one of her matches was a tycoon. The tycoon was furious and plotted to get her only father involved in loan sharking. Not long after, her father couldn't bear the pressure and committed suicide by jumping off a building.

At that moment, Fang Jiaojiao was completely devastated and desperately wanted to kill the tycoon. However, she was outnumbered and just as the other party was about to chop off her hand.

Shen Zhao, who happened to be passing by, saved his life. Later, Shen Zhao sought justice for Fang Jiaojiao, and Fang Jiaojiao then vowed to become Shen Zhao's bodyguard.

Shen Zhao's long, dark eyelashes trembled slightly. His usually gentle, affectionate eyes were now filled with murderous intent. His thin lips were pressed tightly together: "You decide what to do. It's best if you don't die in there."

For such wicked people, death would be too much of a relief.

He wanted these people to suffer a fate worse than death.

Fang Jiaojiao scratched her head, grinned with her big white teeth, and chuckled twice: "It's been a long time since I practiced boxing, so let's use them to practice."

Half an hour later.

"Young Master, you should rest first. I have increased the speed of the voyage and we should be able to catch up with Miss Yu in about three hours." Fang Jiaojiao said to Shen Zhao beside her, keeping an eye on the sailing line and the tracking.

Shen Zhao stood up straight, his peach blossom eyes fixed on the GpS icon with a cold glint in them. He coughed lightly, his fingers, which gleamed like white jade, pressed against his chest. A thin blush rose on his long, snow-white neck. He said, "Fang Jiaojiao, speed things up."

Fang Jiaojiao glanced at the weak-looking Shen Zhao, feeling a little afraid that he might cough and faint. After thinking for a moment, she reluctantly replied, "Okay."

A cold and damp storeroom.

"Da, da, da,"

A sinister, terrifying footstep sounded outside, growing closer and closer...

Chen Baozhu struggled to open one eye, kicking the stinking dog cage with barely any breath. Dried dog excrement still clung to the top of the cage. She felt utterly humiliated, her face contorted with rage.

You bitch! How dare you lock her in a dog cage!

"I've brought you your food." A gentle, clear voice came through the crack in the door.

With a "click".

A long, slender hand with distinct bones rested on the doorknob, and then the door opened.

Backlit, Yu Qiao held two large bowls of leftover food in her hands. Her face was stunning, and her features were exquisitely beautiful. A cold smile played on her crimson lips, and she exuded a terrifying aura that sent chills down one's spine.

"Yu Qiao!" Chen Baozhu's heart leaped into her throat, her forehead covered in cold sweat. She gripped the dog cage tightly and screamed like a madwoman, "How dare you lock me in a dog cage! You ingrate! Don't forget that I raised you! I'm your mother! This is an outrageous act that will be punished by heaven!"

"Fuck you *****"

Yu Qiao took a step closer, squatted down, and looked at the crazed Chen Baozhu.

Her pretty face was sinister and cold, her deep, dark eyes gleaming with a dark light, which accentuated her stunningly beautiful and deep-set features. She was both venomous and alluring, and her voice was like a poisoned hook as she softly asked, "Chen Baozhu, are you hungry?"

Seeing the food Yu Qiao was carrying, Chen Baozhu was sweating profusely. She immediately remembered that half a year ago, Yu Qiao had poisoned the wedding banquet, and she was the only one in the entire Reed Village to survive.

“You will be punished! You will definitely be punished! You will die a horrible death!!” Chen Baozhu cried and wailed.

"If it weren't for you, I wouldn't be in this state! You heartless, despicable woman! You've killed so many people, you'll definitely die a horrible death!!!"

Yu Qiao stirred the pig feed in the bowl with her long fingers, her eyes deep and her gaze calmly fixed on Chen Baozhu's crazed face. She smiled and said, "Don't worry, apart from you, everyone in the entire Reed Village has already died a terrible death."

"Chen Baozhu, don't worry." Her smile grew wider, and there seemed to be a hint of madness in her eyes: "I will burn you to death with my own hands."

Chen Baozhu stared intently at Yu Qiao.

Yu Qiao tilted the bowl, spilling the leftover food onto the ground. She slowly stood up, looking down at Chen Baozhu, and said in a calm but commanding tone, "Chen Baozhu, be clean."

"What did you say!

Chen Baozhu had barely managed to shout out a few words when Yu Qiao kicked the dog cage.

Yu Qiao held a dagger that gleamed white in her hand, its sharp blade reflecting her cold and cruel face: "tian\/\/\/ Clean".

Chen Baozhu was furious and banged on the dog cage, spitting and cursing at Yu Qiao.

Yu Qiao grabbed Chen Baozhu's hand, and with a swift movement, chopped off one of her fingers.

With a blank expression, he commanded: "Tian//// Clean."

"You!" Chen Baozhu's face contorted in pain, and she was about to unleash another torrent of curses.

With a ripping sound, Yu Qiao raised her knife and cut off two of her fingers.

Three fingers, bleeding, rolled onto the dusty ground.

Chen Baozhu trembled and shrank her neck.

He tried to plead in a conciliatory tone: "Yu Qiao, I'm not hungry, can I not eat?"

Yu Qiao's cold fingers lifted her chin, and she shook her head with a gentle smile: "Don't go hungry, eat quickly."

Chen Baozhu's eyes darkened, but she dared not provoke or refute her again. She could only endure the disgust and grovel on the ground like a dog.

They licked the dirty, spoiled food off the ground.

Yu Qiao picked up three bloody fingers, walked to the dog cage on the other side, and patiently said, "Mr. Zhuang, it's your turn."

She waved three fingers, smiling sweetly: "This is your food."

Zhuang Yaozu was traumatized by Yu Qiao; the scene he had just witnessed was still jarring to his eyes, and now she was holding three bloody fingers.

Tears welled up in her eyes: "I...can I..."

The faint, familiar, and somewhat chaotic sound of footsteps could be heard.

With a creak.

Yu Qiao frowned, her gaze fierce as she looked over: "Who!?"

"Baby." Shen Zhao gasped for breath, his face pale and bloodless, his black hair damp with sweat and clinging to his fair cheeks. His Adam's apple bobbed. "It's me."

Backlit, a handsome young man with a face as beautiful as an immortal appeared in Yu Qiao's field of vision. He was breathing heavily, his cheeks were covered with a layer of crystal clear sweat, his fair skin was flushed, his peach blossom eyes sparkled with joy, and his whole demeanor was relaxed and noble.

Yu Qiao looked bewildered, her back stiff and motionless, her fingers still clutching her bloodied and ugly fingertips, dripping blood onto the tips of her shoes.

He stared blankly at Shen Zhao.

Zhuang Yaozu suddenly shook the dog cage like a mad dog, pleading and shouting, "Help! Help! This woman wants to kill me, call the police!"

Chen Baozhu recognized Shen Zhao, and her already pale face turned even more terrified. She huddled in the dog cage, trembling.

Her cloudy eyes darted around, a glint of shrewdness flashing within them. Chen Baozhu sprang to her feet, her voice strained as she began to bark wildly: "Chen Zhao! Chen Zhao, I am Yu Qiao's mother!"

"Look at her, she's a crazy woman, she's lost her mind! You have no idea, she's been shameless since she was a child, always seducing men! Climbing into the beds of old men!"

"Don't be fooled by her! Come here and let me go! I swear, I'll tell you everything about Yu Qiao! She's a worthless piece of trash who deserves to be struck by lightning!"

"Shut up!" Yu Qiao looked flustered and helpless at Shen Zhao. She bit her lip, her eyes flashing with ferocity. She grabbed Chen Baozhu from the dog cage, pulling her hair tightly, and gritted her teeth: "I didn't tell you to speak!"

Danfeng's eyes were filled with fear and unease, and Yu Qiao was trembling all over. Even the fingers that were tightly gripping Chen Baozhu were pale and turned bluish from the excessive force.

Why is the young master here?!
