Chapter 145: Outrage
The machine started and the mud poured down again.
The mud in the pit gradually rose up and slowly climbed towards Mu Chuchu's chest.
Old Madam Xiao watched all this with an indifferent expression. Su Man even saw a kind of condescending disdain on the old madam's face, looking down on ants.
It's impossible not to be shocked.
In Su Man's eyes, Madam Xiao has always been a kind and amiable old woman.
At most, he would be a little mean to people he disliked sometimes, but this was a side of him that Su Man had never encountered before.
It was said that Madam Xiao had accompanied Grandpa Xiao in conquering the world in his early years, and that she was well-connected in both the black and white worlds, with her hands stained with a lot of blood. Su Man thought these were just exaggerations.
Old Madam Xiao obviously didn't notice the arrival of Xiao Beisheng and Su Man. She waved her hand and stopped Aunt Mei.
The machine stopped and the mud finally stopped pouring. Mu Chuchu wiped her face and gasped for breath.
She must have choked, as she covered her neck and started coughing violently.
He threatened Mu Chuchu in the pit, "Know your place. If you do anything to hurt Su Man or our Xiao family's reputation again, I can make you disappear from this world without a word."
After saying this, Madam Xiao waved her hand again.
Aunt Mei started the machine again.
"stop--"!
This sudden shout surprised everyone on Madam Xiao's side.
Before Aunt Mei could stop, the machine started up, making a rumbling sound, and the mud poured out again, splashing onto Mu Chuchu.
Xiao Beisheng took a few steps forward and held down Aunt Mei's hand that was starting the engine. He gritted his teeth and said, "Aunt Mei."
"Young Master..." Aunt Mei was a little stunned and didn't dare to move her hands.
Aunt Mei is an elderly person who lives beside Old Madam Xiao, and Xiao Beisheng has always respected Aunt Mei as an elder. But now, for Mu Chuchu, he is so cruel to Aunt Mei.
The machine stopped.
When Mu Chuchu saw Xiao Beisheng, she burst into tears. All the grievances and fear in her body burst out and she howled loudly.
If she hadn't been tortured to the point of having lost all her strength, her howls would probably have been even louder.
Xiao Beisheng looked at the bodyguard and ordered, "Bring the man up."
The bodyguard held Mu Chuchu down and looked at Madam Xiao hesitantly.
He was under the command of Old Madam Xiao and would certainly only listen to her orders.
Xiao Beisheng shouted again: "I said to bring the person up! Didn't you hear me?"
Madam Xiao said, "Carry it up."
The bodyguard had no choice but to take action and carry Mu Chuchu up.
It is definitely not possible to lift her up with bare hands. When Mu Chuchu was thrown into the pit, a belt was tied around her waist to be used to pull her out in the end.
The bodyguard pulled at the belt and finally, after a lot of effort, Mu Chuchu finally got to the ground. She lay on the ground, her body covered in thick mud, and she couldn't exert any strength.
"How do you feel?" Xiao Beisheng went over to ask her.
Mu Chuchu looked at Xiao Beisheng, her mouth flattened, and she was about to cry again: "Boss Xiao, I'm so scared..."
Xiao Beisheng comforted softly: "It's okay."
"My legs are numb..."
What Mu Chuchu said was true. After being buried in extremely dense mud for a long time, the blood in the lower limbs could not flow smoothly.
"Be patient, I'll take you to the hospital." Xiao Beisheng said, and picked up Mu Chuchu.
Mu Chuchu was very dirty, but Xiao Beisheng didn't hesitate at all. Even though his shirt was stained, he didn't frown.
Madam Xiao watched this scene coldly. When Xiao Beisheng was about to take Mu Chuchu away, she stopped him and said, "Stop!"
Xiao Beisheng paused and turned around.
Madam Xiao said, “Are you really going to disobey grandma for this outsider?”
"I am like this, isn't it you who forced me to do it?"
"you……!"
"Do you really have to do this? Do you want to kill everyone you dislike?"
Xiao Beisheng's faint question brought old lady Xiao's memory back to the past.
Back then, Xiao Beisheng did a lot of outrageous and absurd things for Luo Yan. Xiao Beisheng was the heir carefully cultivated by the Xiao family. Old Madam Xiao could not tolerate anyone ruining Xiao Beisheng, so she tied Luo Yan back to the old house and tortured him inhumanly.
At that time, Xiao Beisheng was even crazier than he is now. With red eyes, he questioned Old Madam Xiao whether she was determined to force him to death before she would give up.
Madam Xiao was in a trance for a moment, and asked with a heartbroken heart: "Back then, you contradicted me for Luo Yan, I can understand. But now for this vixen, why? Tell me the truth in front of Su Man today!"
Xiao Beisheng said calmly: "Grandma, it has never been someone else's problem."
After saying that, he turned around holding Mu Chuchu.
Su Man was standing behind everyone. When Xiao Beisheng turned around, he met Su Man's gaze.
His eyes flickered, and he was about to say something. At this moment, Mu Chuchu in his arms whimpered. Xiao Beisheng frowned, but in the end, without saying anything, he hugged Mu Chuchu, walked around Su Man and quickly left.
Su Man stood there, not knowing what to feel for a moment.
When she went out, Xiao Beisheng's car was gone. He took Mu Chuchu away without waiting for Su Man.
Madam Xiao asked Su Man to accompany her back to the main house, and talked to Su Man along the way, "Is it scary for you to see all this today?"
Su Man shook her head, "I was just a little surprised."
Madam Xiao chuckled with an ambiguous tone. "You heard what Bei Sheng and I said just now, and Grandma doesn't intend to hide it from you. There was indeed a situation like this in the past, and at that time, Bei Sheng's reaction was much more intense than it is now."
"For Luo Yan?"
Madam Xiao did not hide it: “Not bad.”
Su Man remained silent, and Madam Xiao changed the subject: "Let's not talk about the past. Bei Sheng no longer has any feelings for Luo Yan. As for this little secretary, it was because of other special reasons that he was so anxious and angry. Bei Sheng is sincere to you."
Suman said, "I know."
"Do you really know, and are you not just trying to fool me, grandma?" Old Madam Xiao didn't quite believe it.
Su Man raised her head and said to Madam Xiao: "Grandma, no matter what Bei Sheng's feelings for me are, I will support Bei Sheng and I. I am his wife."
Old Madam Xiao was slightly startled.
Su Man bowed slightly to Madam Xiao and said, "I'll go back first. Thank you grandma for helping me, but don't do such things again in the future."
Su Man left in the old house's car. Old Madam Xiao had someone send her back.
Old Madam Xiao watched the car go away and said to Aunt Mei beside her: "Aunt Mei, I'm afraid Su Man is disappointed with Beisheng."
Aunt Mei said, "Young Madam always sees things more deeply than others. She is also very intelligent. She knows what is most important. Feelings are probably the least important to her."
"Without love, how could she be willing to treat Bei Sheng wholeheartedly?" Old Madam Xiao was very worried. "Aunt Mei, tell me, did I really do something wrong this time? Will Bei Sheng take his anger out on Su Man?"
"The young master won't do that. He can't bear to do that. But I'm afraid the young lady will think so, and there will be a rift between the couple." Aunt Mei also sighed.
