Chapter 212 Missing 4
Tian Wenzhi returned home.
The house was empty and Pei Yunjin was not there.
In order to avoid searches, she has been living in the tunnel these days, and he secretly delivers her food every day, but today he cooked a bowl of noodles and went into the cellar.
This was the first time he came in since he carried Jiang Yueyao back.
He doesn't dare!
Don't dare to face her.
Tian Wenzhi felt that he was not a human being. Boss Shen was so good to him, but he repaid his kindness with hatred. He listened to Pei Yunjin and kidnapped her.
The cellar was dark. He lit a lamp and looked at Jiang Yueyao lying in the corner. His whole body suddenly trembled.
Her face was red and swollen. She didn't know how many times Pei Yunjin had slapped her. There were marks on her neck and bruises on her exposed arms...
Tian Wenzhi growled and finally fell to his knees on the ground unable to control himself.
The noise he made woke Jiang Yueyao up.
Because her face was badly swollen, she struggled to open her eyes and looked at Tian Wenzhi in the dim light of the oil lamp beside her.
She didn't recognize him at first.
The oil lamp was dim, and her face and eyes were swollen, so Tian Wenzhi lowered his head and didn't dare to look at her.
Until the other party raised his head...
She finally saw the other person's ordinary face clearly. It would be a lie to say she was not surprised. She had thought of many people, but she never expected that the man standing behind her that day would be him.
Her face was badly swollen, and she hadn't eaten anything in the past two days except for some tea.
Jiang Yueyao was so weak that she couldn't even make a sound.
She just looked at Tian Wenzhi, not understanding why he treated her like this?
Tian Wenzhi didn't dare to look into her eyes. He knelt in front of her and kept confessing.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry..."
If possible, Jiang Yueyao wanted to curse at him. What's the use of saying sorry? She was about to die, and she would never let him go even after she died!
But she finally used all her strength, slowly reached out her hand, and gently grabbed his sleeve...
Tian Wenzhi suddenly looked up and saw her eyes asking for help, feeling more and more guilty.
"Why... why?" Her voice was hoarse and unpleasant, as if it had been honed by sand and gravel. "I was thinking of... helping you heal your leg..."
Tian Wenzhi suddenly broke down and cried.
He kowtowed to her: "I'm sorry, Boss Shen, I didn't mean it, I'm sorry..."
"You... like... like Pei Yunjin?"
In the past two days, Pei Yunjin has been torturing her in various ways every day, slapping her, pricking her with needles... The more pain she suffers, the more satisfied she feels.
This is perverted.
Pei Yunjin is crazy.
Facing a madman, nothing you say or do will work.
But Tian Wenzhi was different. Jiang Yueyao could feel his guilt towards her.
In response to Jiang Yueyao's question, Tian Wenzhi remained silent.
But his silence was a tacit agreement.
Jiang Yueyao suddenly laughed.
"You're so stupid..."
Someone like Pei Yunjin, even if she has fallen to this state, would never like a man like Tian Wenzhi.
Doesn’t Tian Wenzhi understand such a simple truth?
He understood, but he was happy with it.
Jiang Yueyao suddenly didn't want to talk anymore.
No matter how much she said, Tian Wenzhi would not let her go.
Instead of wasting time talking, it’s better to take a break.
Seeing that she closed her eyes and stopped talking, Tian Wenzhi hurriedly picked up the bowl of noodles beside him, picked up the noodles with chopsticks and put them to her mouth.
Jiang Yueyao smelled the aroma of food.
She suddenly opened her eyes and looked at the noodles at her mouth. Without hesitation, regardless of whether they were poisonous or not, she opened her mouth and ate them.
She is so hungry!
Her survival instinct made her ignore everything else. Even though the noodles tasted like nothing but a hint of saltiness, she still thought they were delicious.
But before he could take a few bites, a voice came from the entrance of the cellar.
"Tian Wenzhi, what are you doing?"
Tian Wenzhi, who was feeding Jiang Yueyao noodles, suddenly felt his hand tremble. He quickly retracted his chopsticks, hurriedly put the bowl of noodles aside, and got up from the ground.
Jiang Yueyao: “…”
A grown man is so scared of a woman?
Tian Wenzhi didn't care about her anymore. He stood aside and looked at Pei Yunjin coming down the ladder with fear on his face.
He opened his mouth and was about to explain, but the other party walked over and slapped him in the face without thinking.
A "pop" sound echoed in the cellar.
Jiang Yueyao also felt a pain on her face.
She had experienced how painful Pei Yunjin's slaps were in the past two days. Her nails were long, and when the slaps came, her nails scratched her, causing her to shiver in pain.
Every time the other party hit her, she would curse at him.
But Tian Wenzhi was such a coward. Even after Pei Yunjin beat him, he still wanted to comfort her.
"Don't be angry, I'm just afraid that she will die too quickly, so..."
Jiang Yueyao closed her eyes and really wanted to curse.
There must be something hateful about a pitiful person!
She had even imagined that he would let her go... Now seeing how he was groveling towards Pei Yunjin... Oh! Die, die! There was no hope.
After slapping Tian Wenzhi, Pei Yunjin came over and slapped Jiang Yueyao, then kicked over the bowl of noodles placed aside.
She squatted down, reached out and grabbed Jiang Yueyao's neck, and smiled gently.
"Bitch, you're really good. You even want to seduce a lowly groom like Tian Wenzhi. You are a born bitch."
Tian Wenzhi hurriedly explained: "Boss Shen is not, please don't misunderstand..."
"Shut up!" Pei Yunjin turned and glared at him. "I've been waiting for you for a long time, but instead of bringing me food, you came here to bring her food. Tian Wenzhi, are you crazy?"
"I……"
"You regret it, don't you?" Pei Yunjin suddenly stood up, grabbing his clothes with both hands, "Do you want to let her go? Do you want to report to the police?"
"Are you tempted by the 1,000 taels of gold reward offered by the government?" Pei Yunjin sneered, "But Tian Wenzhi, you were the one who knocked him unconscious and carried him back. I'm just an accomplice at best. You'll be the one to be beheaded, and I'll just spend a few years in prison..."
"I didn't mean to report it to the police!" Tian Wenzhi explained hurriedly, "I'll do whatever you tell me to do. I won't do this again next time. Don't be angry..."
After he finished speaking, he added cautiously.
"But now the city gates are sealed, soldiers are stationed everywhere, and the bounty is high. I'm worried that our cellar is not safe."
"Didn't you say that no one knows about this cellar except you?" Pei Yunjin frowned.
"I'm just worried... I heard the Regent's men dug out all the nearby dog holes several times... Although this place is hidden, his men are very powerful. They almost searched here yesterday..."
"And the tunnel you're hiding in might be discovered tomorrow. What are you going to do then?" Tian Wenzhi grabbed Pei Yunjin's arm and said, "Let's go and escape from this tunnel. In my heart, nothing is more important than your life."
Pei Yunjin seemed to be frightened as well.
She was silent for a while, and finally pointed at Jiang Yueyao: "What about her?"
Tian Wenzhi glanced at Jiang Yueyao and hesitated.
"You've let go of your anger now. She's in this state, she might die tomorrow. Let's ignore her. We're just..."
As he said this, he pulled Pei Yunjin out.
But after taking only two steps, Pei Yunjin suddenly stopped.
"Wait a moment."
