The man standing behind Xiao Ying was wearing a dark colored shirt and pants, a pair of sunglasses, and a hat on his head.
Half of his face was covered, only revealing his pursed lips and sharp jaw.
Xiao Ying immediately recognized who it was.
But before she could react, the man behind her suddenly strode forward and covered her lips with his large palm.
There was a handkerchief in his palm.
Xiao Ying’s eyelids slowly became heavy.
The man looked at the woman who had fallen into his arms. He lifted her onto his shoulders and strode away.
Xiao Ying woke up from the cold touch.
She opened her eyes and found herself lying on a large Chinese-style bed.
A man was sitting by the bed, a sharp fruit knife in his hand.
The back of the knife was slowly moving across her face. The cold touch was like the tongue of a poisonous snake.
Xiao Ying met the man’s cold eyes and furrowed her eyebrows. “Long Di.”
When the man heard her call out his name, he let out a low and cold laugh. “Ha, it’s rare for a beauty to still remember me.” The knife in Long Di’s hand cut the part of Xiao Ying’s face that had been repaired. He could not help but smack his lips. “Beauty is getting more and more charming. This skin is no different from a peeled egg.”
Xiao Ying looked at Long Di and said nothing.
Long Ming took the fruit knife and patted her face. “If I cut your face, what do you think Long Ming will do?”
Xiao Ying’s expression changed and there was a coldness in her eyes. “Don’t mention that asshole man. He hurt me again and again. I have nothing to do with him anymore.”
The moment Xiao Ying finished speaking, Long Di threw the fruit knife away and slapped her beautiful face.
Xiao Ying’s ears were ringing from the slap and her lips were broken, blood gushing out.
Long Di grabbed Xiao Ying’s hair and pulled her up from the bed.
He dragged her to the bathroom.
“You’re still putting on an act in front of me? Back then, when you stole my confidential documents for him, you also looked like you hated him to the core. But you were willing to risk your life for him. Ha, do you think I’ll fall for your tricks?”
Xiao Ying did not say much, only saying a few words. “It’s up to you to believe it or not.”
Long Di pressed Xiao Ying’s head into the bathtub.
Xiao Ying did not struggle or resist, letting her lips and nose sink into the water, unable to breathe.
Her hands grabbed the edge of the bathtub tightly. If the veins on the back of her hands had not popped out, Long Di would have thought that she did not feel any pain at all.
This woman’s perseverance was beyond anyone’s imagination.
Long Di’s family had been ruined by her and he hated her to the core. Naturally, he would not hold back. When she was about to suffocate again, he made her take two more breaths. However, he did not give her any more time to breathe and pressed her down again.
Xiao Ying’s face was pale.
Her pursed lips turned purple.
When she could not hold on anymore, Long Di threw her to the ground.
She kept coughing and her face was covered in water. It was hard to tell if it was the water from the bathtub or her tears.
Long Di pursed his lips. He knew very well that such a woman would not cry.
His dark gaze moved from her face to her body.
The off-shoulder dress she was wearing was wet, revealing her exquisite curves.
Long Ming’s gaze on Xiao Ying darkened.
“You’re a tough one.” Long Di crouched down, his fingers pinching Xiao Ying’s chin. “You’re dirty from head to toe. It’s normal for Long Ming to not like you, but I don’t despise you.”
With that said, he pulled Xiao Ying up and approached her pale face.
But before he could touch her, his pupils constricted and he threw Xiao Ying to the ground again.
“Your face…”
There was now a red rash that made people feel nauseous on Xiao Ying’s pale face.
In the blink of an eye, it had covered her entire face. Her fair neck, slender shoulders and slender arms were not spared either.
Long Di furrowed his eyebrows. He brought a doctor over.
After the doctor examined Xiao Ying, he explained, “Maybe she was allergic to the medicine Master used to drug her.”
Long Di waved his hand to let the doctor out.
Xiao Ying stood up from the floor. Her entire body was itchy from the rash and she walked to the room. Looking at Long Di’s dark expression, she pounced at him.
“I hate him. Since he chose Lou Lan, I can choose you too. As long as you don’t mind, I’m willing to follow you.”
Long Di looked at Xiao Ying’s rashes and there was only disgust in his eyes. He wanted to push her away, but she hugged his head and tried to get closer to his face.
Long Di slapped her to the ground.
He was indeed interested in her, but he was not that desperate to want her with her current appearance!
Long Di clapped his hands. “Servants, throw this woman out!”
Half an hour later, Xiao Ying was thrown to the entrance of the bar together with her bag.
Xiao Ying had been thrown to the ground several times tonight and her bones were about to fall apart.
She cursed in her heart and checked her bag. She did not find anything unusual and went to the bar to find Sister Wen.
When Sister Wen saw Xiao Ying, she was shocked. “Why are you…?”
Xiao Ying shook her head. “I’m fine. Give this phone to Long Ming.”
In a dark and wet basement.
Long Di walked in with high spirits.
On the cross was a man who was badly injured from being whipped.
Long Di carried the bucket of ice and splashed it on the man’s face.
The man slowly opened his eyes.
Seeing Long Di standing in front of him, he struggled. “I will not let you off, you treacherous bastard!”
Long Di’s lips curled up into a creepy smile. “Mo Tian, in his eyes, you’re just a traitor who betrayed him. He won’t come to save you at all. Besides, your brother has already taken your position and has successfully gotten the abdication edict signed by Long Ming for me. Long Ming is just a puppet of mine now. I will let him die soon so that I can inherit his throne.”
“As for you, after I succeed in my position, your brother will no longer be of any use. At that time, I will send you two to meet your King.”
“Ha, our King will not let you succeed in your scheme!”
“Hahaha, then let’s wait and see!” Long Di went forward and pressed on Mo Tian’s injured chest. “If I ask your King to go east now, he will definitely not go west. It’s because he trusts you too much that he mistook your brother for you and fell into my trap.”
Long Di pressed down on Mo Tian’s wound. He was in so much pain that he broke out in cold sweat and kept gasping. “Long Di, don’t be too smug…”
Long Di pressed harder on his wound. Mo Tian could not take it and fainted.
