Chapter 214 There Will Be No Good Ending
Bai Jinyu woke up.
The moment she opened her eyes, she suddenly sat up from the bed, raised her feet to get out of bed, and called out excitedly and eagerly: "Baoqi, my Baoqi..."
Shen Huaishan, who was about to comfort her, froze when he heard this.
Seeing her get out of bed, he supported her and asked cautiously and hesitantly.
"Who did you call just now?"
"Baoqi, our Baoqi." Bai Jinyu grabbed his arm, her expression anxious and her eyes red. "Husband, I'm so damned! I forgot about our daughter, my Baoqi, my little Baoqi..."
As she spoke, she pushed Shen Huaishan away again and walked out eagerly.
Shen Huaishan hurriedly stopped him.
He held her shoulders and said in a deep voice, "Don't worry."
"I want to see her. She seems to be injured. I saw it all just now." Bai Jinyu struggled to go out.
Shen Huaishan hurriedly said: “Look at you, your clothes are messy, your hair is messy, if your daughter wakes up and sees you like this, she will laugh at you.”
With just one sentence, Bai Jinyu calmed down.
She didn't dare to run out, so Shen Huaishan took this opportunity to give a look to the maid beside her, asking her to go find Yunsheng quickly.
Just as Bai Jinyu changed her clothes and combed her hair, Yunsheng arrived.
Seeing Yunsheng, Bai Jinyu immediately glared at Shen Huaishan who was standing behind her.
"I'm fine now, really fine. I'm not crazy. Please don't make me take medicine, okay?"
Shen Huaishan hurriedly comforted her: “Don’t take medicine, don’t take medicine, just let him take your pulse.”
Bai Jinyu then reluctantly extended her hand.
As soon as Yunsheng put his hand on it, he felt something different.
A part of the pulse that had been stagnant for many years finally became unblocked.
Yunsheng was even more excited than Shen Huaishan.
"If she gets better, am I free?"
"Great, great country, here I come."
Shen Huaishan gave him a slap.
"Why are you coming? My daughter is still unconscious. Wait until she is fully recovered."
Yunsheng took a deep breath.
"I owed you in my previous life!"
-----
Shen Huaishan brought Bai Jinyu into Baozhu Tower.
Lu Sui, who was originally guarding the bed, heard the noise and stood up to greet them.
"Duke Shen, Madam Shen."
Bai Jinyu really wanted to see Jiang Yueyao, so she just nodded at him and walked in hurriedly.
In the inner room, between the bed, her Baoqi was lying there quietly, with wounds all over her body. Bai Jinyu's pupils trembled when she saw it. She rushed to the bedside and raised her hands to hug her daughter, but when she saw the wounds on her body, she withdrew her hands.
"Baoqi... Xiaoqi..."
She approached cautiously, then held her daughter's uninjured hand, put her face against hers, and sobbed.
"Mom is here... Damn it, how could I forget about my Baoqi."
"You've been back for so long, but Mom still hasn't remembered you. You must be very sad, right?"
"I'm sorry, Baoqi, I'm sorry..."
"It was mother who lost you. You finally came back, but mother didn't recognize you."
"Would you please wake up?"
"Wake up and spank your mother a few times..."
Her face was covered with tears and her whole body was shaking.
Shen Huaishan, who was standing by, was worried that she would become too excited and faint again, so he quickly tried to persuade her.
"She just took some medicine and her body is covered in wounds. Don't disturb her. Let her rest. When she wakes up, we can come back, okay?"
"Not good." Bai Jinyu raised her hand to wipe the tears from the corners of her eyes.
She felt that Shen Huaishan was right.
She couldn't cry anymore, as the crying would disturb her rest.
So, she quickly stopped crying and sat on the edge of the bed. Her hand was tightly holding Jiang Yueyao's little hand, with a determined expression.
"You all go, I'll stay with Xiaoqi."
Shen Huaishan knew that he couldn't persuade her at this moment, so he gave up.
He turned and walked to Lu Sui, his tone sincere and his eyes full of gratitude.
"Thanks to you this time. If we were a step later, Bao Qi would be in great danger."
Lu Sui said humbly, "You don't have to be polite. I just hope that Duke Shen will not stop me from seeing Bao Qi in the future."
"... Let's talk about this later." Shen Huaishan left him and went into the inner room.
Lu Sui stood in front of the screen and glanced at Jiang Yueyao lying on the bed. He knew that there was no need for him to stay any longer. Knowing that she was safe, he felt at ease.
So he said something to the housekeeper and left with his men.
He did not return home, but went directly to the Dali Temple Prison.
In the imperial prison, Pei Yunjin and Tian Wenzhi had their limbs tied to an iron plate, like two pigs waiting to be slaughtered.
Pei Yunjin, who was already in despair, saw Lu Sui coming in and started begging for mercy with tears in his eyes.
"Lord Lu, please let me go. I know I was wrong, and I won't dare to do it again."
Lu Sui ignored him and walked straight to the torture rack on the side. He looked at the knives placed on it, and his slender fingertips slid over them one by one, finally landing on the long knife.
He pulled it out, threw it to the torturer beside him, and then sat down on a chair nearby.
He raised his eyelids slightly and looked at Pei Yunjin.
He said calmly, "Which hand did you use to slap her? And which hand did you use to pierce her with the needle?"
Pei Yunjin was so frightened that his whole body was shaking.
"I was wrong, I was wrong, Lord Lu, please spare my life, Lord Lu, please spare my life..."
Lu Sui turned a deaf ear to it.
He glanced at his right hand and downplayed it.
"How many times did you slap her?"
Pei Yunjin didn't dare to say anything and just begged for mercy.
Lu Sui stood up, grabbed the dagger beside him, walked quickly to Pei Yunjin, and stabbed her right hand without saying a word.
A miserable howl was heard.
The palm of Pei Yunjin's right hand, which had slapped someone, was pierced by a dagger.
She was in so much pain that her face was twisted...
The man's hand still held the hilt of the knife.
His voice was still light: "I'll ask you again, how many times did you slap her?"
"I'll tell you..." Pei Yunjin's voice was shaking and trembling, "One hundred and five times... Yes, one hundred and five times. I will record every time I hit you..."
One hundred and five slaps!
Everyone present was silent.
Lu Sui lowered his eyelids and asked her again: "How many times did you prick her with the needle?"
This time, Pei Yunjin didn't dare to hide it anymore.
"One hundred and fifty-seven times."
"Besides these, have you done anything else to her?"
"I pinched... I pinched her neck..." Pei Yunjin cried and begged for mercy, "That's all, really that's all, Master Lu, you have to believe me..."
Lu Sui pulled out the dagger, threw it aside, and sat back in the armchair.
He took the handkerchief handed to him by Qingxuan and spoke slowly while slowly wiping his hands.
"Chop off both legs and hands and turn me into a human pig!"
He raised his eyelids slightly and looked at the two people tied to the iron plate.
"I'm going to make them suffer a fate worse than death!"
A strong smell of urine rushed over, and Tian Wenzhi lost control of his bladder before fainting from fright.
Pei Yunjin, who was standing by, saw that Lu Sui would not let him go, so he started cursing.
"Lu Sui, you are a jinx. You are destined to be alone. That bitch Jiang Yueyao will not have a good ending as long as she is with you."
"Hahahaha, neither of you will have a good ending..."
