But in an instant, Zhen Qi seemed to be spending seconds like years, immersed in the tearing pain in his left leg, and the occasional shouts he made were completely ignored by Baili Xiyao.
Suddenly, Baili Xiyao chuckled, "So it's right here~" He looked up at Zhen Qi and put away his smile, "Tell me, if I cut it off bit by bit from here... Can you still save your leg?"
"What are you going to do!" Zhen Qi looked at the dagger that was still slowly moving in his wound and cried out in fear, "Baili Xiyao! If you dare to touch me, President Zhen will not let you go!"
Baili Xiyao's expression remained unchanged upon hearing this. He took the gift without pausing for a moment, then said calmly, "Do you really think that bastard Zhen Linye would go against me just for a piece of disposable trash like you?"
I don't know if it was that word in Baili Xiyao's words that irritated Zhen Qi, but I saw the originally calm Zhen Qi struggling frantically, as if trying to confirm something, shouting loudly: "I'm not trash! President Zhen promised me that he would definitely save me!!!"
"Zhen Linye might save you, but he certainly doesn't care whether he saves a living person or... a corpse."
As he said that, Baili Xiyao loosened the dagger in his hand, letting it remain stuck straight into Zhen Qi's leg.
Baili Xiyao stood up straight, lowered his eyes and looked down at Zhen Qi, who had his hands tied and was being held down by Xiao Jiu and Xiao Shiyi, one on each shoulder. "Come to think of it, there's someone who seems to have disappeared from your sight for a long time. I wonder if you know her whereabouts." Baili Xiyao deliberately paused for a moment before slowly saying a name, "Lin Cui."
Hearing this name, Zhen Qi's pupils suddenly shrank and his whole body began to tremble subconsciously, as if he remembered something in the past that frightened him. But within a few seconds, Zhen Qi suddenly calmed down again, his expression ruthless, "She's just an abandoned child. Relying on the affection she had for following Old Madam He since childhood, she didn't care about status and actually dared to let Zhen Mozhao go right under President Zhen's nose! Death is too easy for her! She should be made to live a life worse than death! Oh, no, now I should call that little bastard He Mozhao, hahahahahahaha..."
Hearing this, Baili Xiyao's eyes flashed with murderous intent, but he immediately lowered his eyes to hide it and said in a cold voice, "Let him go right under Zhen Linye's nose? What do you mean?"
"What do you mean? It means she ruined Mr. Zhen's plan!"
"What good news?"
Zhen Qi was about to speak, but suddenly seemed to realize what Baili Xiyao and the people behind her wanted to know from him, so he suddenly stopped talking and even closed his eyes to rest.
Oh.
Don't you want to say it?
Baili Xiyao raised his eyebrows, bent down and gripped the hilt of the dagger again. Without giving Zhen Qi time to react, he slashed it down hard, and Zhen Qi's leg was actually broken in half.
The people behind Baili Xiyao were shocked to realize what Baili Xiyao had found in Zhen Qi's wound with the dagger just now...
It's where the knee joint connects to the thigh bone!
Baili Xiyao was actually going to cut off one of Zhen Qi's legs...
Rui Qing, who had never seen such a bloody scene, turned pale instantly and buried her little face in He Xiao's arms.
In comparison, Mrs. He, who was standing next to Mr. He, was much calmer. Her expression did not change at all, and there was a hint of admiration in her eyes.
The sudden pain of a broken leg made Zhen Qi scream and open his eyes instantly. What he saw was his right leg that was broken in half and covered in blood.
Some nerve reactions and blood vessel constriction can be seen on the bloody wound.
"Now..." Baili Xiyao changed the direction of the dagger in his hand and said as he did so: "You no longer have the chance to speak up and tell me what I want to know."
Zhen Qi watched helplessly as one of his legs was cut off and only then did he deeply feel the horror of Baili Xiyao.
When Baili Xiyao was about to continue cutting open his other leg, Zhen Qi came back to his senses and said hurriedly, "I'm telling you! Don't you just want to know about Xiao Za... He Mozhao's past? I'm telling you!"
Unexpectedly, Baili Xiyao didn't intend to pay attention to him, and the bloody dagger blade had already reached his left leg.
Soon, the trouser leg was cut open by the sharp blade, and blood stained the left thigh. The tip of the knife was moving back and forth, and Baili Xiyao's eyes were also moving back and forth on Zhen Qi's two legs, as if trying to find a symmetrical point to start.
But the angle of the knife was off. Baili Xiyao held the dagger and stabbed it nonchalantly, then said calmly, "It seems to be off. Let me look for it again."
"Baili Xiyao!!! I'm telling you what you want to know! I'll tell you everything, just let me go!"
There was fear in Zhen Qi's eyes. He was afraid that Baili Xiyao would use the same method to pierce a few more holes in his left leg to torture him, so he spoke quickly.
“Tsk…”
Baili Xiyao pulled out the dagger and threw it aside casually, straightening his back. "I thought it was a hard bone."
As he spoke, he picked up a chair from nearby and placed it one meter away from Zhen Qi. He took the knife roll from the table beside him and sat down. He then opened the knife roll, and his slender white fingers stopped on a spiral cutter on it, with a casual posture, "Tell me, I want to know every detail... If I find out that you are lying, then, it..." Baili Xiyao took out the rotating knife and held it in front of his eyes, and said slowly: "It will be the next thing that comes into close contact with your left leg."
Zhen Qi followed Baili Xiyao's movements and his eyes fell on the knife. He felt a chill in his heart and vaguely felt that Baili Xiyao was not someone they could afford to offend.
There was a moment of silence. Zhen Qi suppressed the fear in his heart, and his deep voice echoed in the silent basement.
The truth he brought gripped the hearts of everyone present...
"You all know that Xu Yun gave birth to a stillborn baby and was so traumatized that she stole He Mozhao away. Xu Yun is probably the only one who can explain what happened at the time. It's a pity that she went crazy and died..."
"When President Zhen learned that He Mozhao, who was still Zhen Mozhao, was not his own child, He Mozhao was not even three years old. The high-spirited President Zhen simply could not accept Xu Yun's betrayal. Even when Xu Yun consciously revealed the truth about the stillborn baby swap, President Zhen still refused to believe it and was convinced that Xu Yun had betrayed him."
"Just as President Zhen was happy when the young master was born, he was furious when he found out he wasn't his own child. President Zhen had me lock Xu Yun up in the attic of the Zhen family's old house, while he went to the bar and got drunk all night."
"After returning, President Zhen seemed like a completely different person, full of rage. He went straight to the attic and bullied Xu Yun, whose spirits fluctuated, for a whole day and night. That day, the entire Zhen family mansion was filled with Xu Yun's screams of pain. The young master, less than three years old, was naturally frightened and developed a high fever. He hugged a teddy bear and knocked on the attic door, crying out, 'I want my daddy!'"
