Chapter 163
However, Zhou Yongliang was still in high spirits and, being blindfolded, was completely unaware of what was happening.
Yunxi stood in a place where she wouldn't be affected, coldly watching Zhou Yongliang's lewd actions.
Even if the whole room were to burn down, she would still have a hard time escaping, and might even suffocate to death there.
Then there's only one option...
As Zhou Yongliang got closer and closer to the fire, Yunxi went up and kicked him in the butt.
She used all her strength in that kick, and Zhou Yongliang, caught completely off guard, was kicked so hard that he fell face-first onto the bed.
The bed was now almost completely engulfed in flames. Zhou Yongliang lunged at it and was immediately entangled by the scorching flames, only then realizing that something was wrong.
Engulfed in flames, Zhou Yongliang screamed in agony.
Yunxi decisively turned around and opened the door.
But the door was locked from the outside. Yunxi turned and glanced at Zhou Yongliang, who was rolling on the ground, then pounded on the door and cried, "Fire! Fire! Help!"
This unusual commotion naturally attracted the attention of the pimp.
Also in the Drunken Flower Pavilion, the pimp naturally knew Yunxi's background. He initially didn't take her cries for help seriously, thinking it was just a trick she used to escape. However, upon hearing the screams from inside, the pimp quickly opened the door from the outside.
As soon as the door opened, thick smoke billowed out of the room.
The thick smoke was terrifying, and the Drunken Flower Pavilion was in complete chaos.
Seeing that no one was paying attention to her, Yunxi quickly got up from the ground and followed the crowd away in the chaos.
She was currently on the third floor. As she went down floor by floor, the door was right in front of her. Yunxi's eyes lit up, and she quickened her pace.
However, at that moment, two burly figures suddenly blocked her way.
Yunxi was taken aback. She recognized that the clothes they were wearing were the same as those worn by the pimp earlier, and knew that they were also from the Drunken Flower Pavilion.
"The guests can leave, but you can't!"
After saying that, the man reached out and grabbed Yunxi's wrist tightly, pulling her aside.
This man was very strong; his hands were like iron clamps, gripping Yunxi's wrist so tightly it hurt, as if her bones were about to crack.
The fire upstairs only looked fierce; it hadn't actually spread, and because it was discovered in time, it's already extinguished.
Zhou Yongliang, who arrived in high spirits, was now in a sorry state. His brocade clothes were burned to tatters, and his hair was almost completely burned off, leaving bald patches on his head, making him look somewhat comical.
"Who is it! Who was in this house just now!" Zhou Yongliang roared from upstairs, "If you don't bring the person over, I'll smash this lousy place to pieces!"
"Oh dear, Lord Zhou, please calm down, please calm down!"
Ning's mother stood obsequiously beside him, her gaze sweeping downwards before pointing at Yun Xi: "That's the one, just delivered today. I originally arranged for her to be yours because I thought she was kind and gentle, but I never expected it to cause such a big fuss..."
"Now that things have already happened, there's no point in me saying anything more, sir. Just be happy, and do whatever you want with this girl!"
Ning's mother spoke so boldly that Zhou Yongliang slammed his hand on the railing and shouted, "Bring that girl up here!"
How dare she kick him into the fire pit! He'll skin that girl alive today to vent his anger!
Yunxi's struggles were of no use to the pimp, and she was forcibly taken to Zhou Yongliang's side.
Zhou Yongliang sneered: "Peony's mother, didn't you say that I could do whatever I wanted with her?"
Peony's mother nodded repeatedly: "Anything is fine!"
This man surnamed Zhou holds a high position and wields great power; he's not someone you should offend.
"good!"
Zhou Yongliang shouted and grabbed Yunxi's neck tightly.
He used his full strength, and Yunxi's throat felt dry and burning. Her vision gradually blurred, and Yunxi struggled instinctively, kicking and hitting him. But Zhou Yongliang was now also blinded by rage, and no matter how much Yunxi struggled, he did not loosen his grip.
There were many people around, but at this moment, they just watched from a distance, their eyes filled with indifference and pity.
Gradually, Yunxi lost all strength to struggle. The last ray of light before her eyes slowly went out, and the surroundings fell into complete silence.
Seeing this, everyone knew that the girl was doomed.
Just then, a voice suddenly rang out: "Imperial Guards are on patrol to maintain discipline! No noise allowed, superiors, stop!"
