Su Yin and Su Ruyi both came from the pitch-black night and immediately squinted when they arrived at the brightly lit backyard.
Su Yin lost her balance and fell to the ground.
Now that Su Yin had been brought in, Su Ruyi had no intention of letting him leave alive.
However, it's not time to kill him with one blow yet; we need to get him to reveal Chen Yuanyuan's whereabouts first.
So Su Ruyi stuck a needle into Su Yin's spine, permanently damaging it.
Su Yin immediately went limp and collapsed to the ground.
Su Yin, unaware that he was paralyzed, thought it was some kind of illusion, so she wasn't particularly panicked. Instead, she glared at Su Ruyi with venomous eyes: "I knew it! I knew you jinx were weird! Xiu'er was right, you really are weird! What? Is this what you mean by weird? Are you a fox demon or a ghost? What did you do to my honest sixth sister? Is this your monster's lair?"
Su Yin looked around the small courtyard, asking questions as she went.
Su Ruyi ignored him, instead bringing over two ropes and a chair. She lifted Su Yin up and tied him to the chair with his back to the ground—she couldn't let him know that she was paralyzed yet.
"I don't want to waste my breath on you. Tell me Chen Yuanyuan's whereabouts now, and you can avoid some physical punishment." Su Ruyi's voice was cold.
"Hmph, do you think I, Su Yin, am easily intimidated?" Su Yin scoffed disdainfully.
Just then, Su Qiushi heard the noise and came out.
Su Ruyi took the wooden box from Su Yin's arms: "Grandpa, I'm sorry to have woken you up. Could you get me a box of matches?"
"Okay! Alright!" Su Qiushi turned and left.
Su Ruyi opened the wooden box, took out the book, opened it, and waved it in front of Su Yin: "Third brother, my dear third brother, why is this book so important to you? So important that you risked everything to kidnap my fourth sister-in-law? Let me take a look!"
After saying that, she opened the book.
"No...please don't..." Su Yin uttered a few syllables, then tightly pursed her lips.
Su Ruyi flipped through the book: "Oh, so it's a secret recipe! Tsk tsk, this is quite something. What, Su Yin? Do you really want this book? But I think this book is a menace; we might as well burn it!"
As she spoke, she picked up the book with one hand and struck a match with the other.
"No, no! Don't be impulsive, my dear sixth sister! Please don't be impulsive! Listen to me! Your third brother is no longer the same person I used to be. I can foresee the future, I can foresee many things in the future! Sixth sister, you must listen to me! Your third brother will be the most successful person in the entire Su family, and the one who will lead the entire Su family to glory! Including you, sixth sister, your life will also be glorious because of my glory. The benefits I can give you in the future are countless."
"Oh, you're quite the talker! When you say 'countless,' are you referring to taking my two kidneys?"
Upon hearing this, Su Yin's face turned deathly pale: "You, you..."
Although Su Yin had always felt that Su Ruyi was strange, she could never be sure whether Su Ruyi had also experienced the previous life in her dream.
It seems that not only him and Xiuer, but even this jinx in front of us has experienced a previous life!
Oh no, how should I continue to lie to her?
"Tear—" Su Ruyi suddenly made a move and tore the book in her hand in half.
"No, no, no! I... I'll tell you, I'll tell you! You must protect that book! Ruyi! Third Brother promises, Third Brother will treat you well for the rest of my life! If I'm lying, may I... may I suffer a fate worse than death! Okay?"
Su Ruyi said somewhat grimly, "Your oath to me is easily fulfilled. You also know—I'm eccentric."
Su Yin was extremely excited: "I'm not afraid to take the oath! Sixth Sister, I've always felt so sorry for you. I promise to treat you well in this life and let Third Brother make it up to you, okay? You know what will happen in the future. We'll all get rich together and become the most prominent family in Haicheng! And you will be the most honored little princess in our family! Ruyi, don't be impulsive. Your good days are yet to come!"
"Tell me, where is Chen Yuanyuan?!" Su Ruyi asked again.
At this moment, Su Qiu said in a sinister tone, "Ruyi, is this the way you interrogate a criminal? When interrogating a criminal, you should at least use some torture!"
As he spoke, he put on a pair of latex gloves and pulled a somewhat familiar box out of his pocket.
As soon as the box was opened, a strange herbal smell wafted out.
Su Qiu used a tongue depressor to scoop out a large lump of ointment-like substance and thickly applied it to Su Yin's exposed neck, ears, and forehead.
Su Ruyi recognized it at a glance—it was the same ointment Su Qiushi had applied to Zhong Misu's leg to make him miserable back then!
While shaking her still-movable neck to dodge, Su Yin cursed, "You old bastard, you old codger! If you poison me, you'll never find Chen Yuanyuan again! She'll starve to death where I kept her! Three lives lost! You...you'll regret this!"
Su Qiushi ignored his curses, finished applying the ointment, took off her gloves, and left.
Three minutes later, Su Yin knew what kind of torture this ointment was.
His facial features twitched, and he rubbed his neck back and forth on the chair, quickly rubbing his ears until they were covered in blood.
He even stuck out his tongue, trying to scratch the itchy spot on his forehead.
Su Ruyi looked at him quietly.
Su Qiushi applied a lot of ointment; this large patch was much thicker than the ointment he had applied to Zhong Misu before!
Su Yin persisted for about 20 minutes before finally breaking down: "Su Ruyi! If I tell you where Chen Yuanyuan is, will you wipe this ointment off?"
Su Ruyi nodded: "You still need to apologize to my grandfather. You just insulted him!"
"I apologize, I apologize, Grandpa Su, I was wrong! I shouldn't have offended you, I was blind to your greatness! From now on, I will treat you with the utmost respect, okay?" Su Yin begged for forgiveness repeatedly.
He thought Su Qiushi was still standing behind him.
Actually, when Su Qiushi was applying the ointment, he discovered that Su Yin was already paralyzed, and he felt relieved.
He had already gone back to his room to sleep by now.
"Where is Chen Yuanyuan?" Su Ruyi asked again.
“She’s there…she’s there…” Su Yin stopped resisting and said an address expressionlessly.
Then, he saw Su Ruyi disappear from his sight in an instant!
Su Yin's scalp tingled instantly, her eyes widened, and she dared not move an inch!
