Chapter 239

on and don't try to have both sides!”Shen Yian's words pierced through Gu Cheng, making his face even more unsightly."It seems my mother was right, you only want money to support your own mother! Aian...Her face turned pale, her mind racing with all sorts of thoughts. She even considered blaming Zhou Fu for the crime she had committed under duress, but the framing was her doing. As long as Xiu Xiu spoke up, she couldn't get rid of it.

So, the only way to walk away unscathed...

Her gaze involuntarily fell on Xiuxiu, making this person shut up!

A cold light flashed in her eyes, but she didn't say anything. Instead, she panicked and leaned against Zhou Fu: "Zhou Big Brother, Xie Yun is the most unreasonable person. If he knows that Xiu Xiu's injuries were all caused by you, he won't let you go."

Zhou Fu's face changed drastically: "Although I was a bit heavy-handed, it is permitted by the palace rules."

"But it's okay, if Xiu Xiu adds more fuel to the fire and says something else, then you..."

She suddenly wiped her eyes and said, "Forget it, I made a fuss out of nothing. I'll go find Xie Yun and apologize, so she won't blame you. You didn't get to this position easily, don't let her ruin it. As for me, if she wants to kill or dismember me, just do it. Brother Zhou, please don't interfere."

Zhou Fu had long been interested in Wan Dong. He couldn't bear to hear such words. When he heard this, he hugged her tightly, his eyes flashing with cold light: "Don't go, I know Xie Yun, she is vengeful and will never let you go. I have a way to make sure she can't investigate at all."

Xiu Xiu shuddered all over. She had just heard Xiao Huangmen say that Xie Yun had returned to Yin Ji's side, and her heart was filled with joy because she thought she was saved. But before the joy could last long, a sharp chill fell upon her body. She endured the pain and looked up, and saw the eunuch who had just beaten her approaching with a sullen face.

Her heart pounded in her chest, a sense of foreboding washing over her. She instinctively took a step back, her spine pressed hard against the railing: "What do you want Don't come any closer... Help! Help me!"

"Shut up!"

Zhou Fu flicked his whip, aiming it at Xiu Xiu. This time, it didn't hit her body, but instead wrapped around her neck and tightened suddenly. "Little girl, don't blame me, blame yourself for being dishonest and blocking others' way."

Xiu Xiu's eyes widened in terror. Although her hands and feet were tied, she instinctively struggled. But after all, she was just a little girl, with little strength. As her breathing was stifled, her body gradually lost its energy, and her vision flickered in and out of darkness.

Fear of death hung over her head, she looked towards the door with difficulty: "Aunt..."

With a deafening crash, the door of the prison cell flew open. As the door swung shut, a tall and slender figure strode in, advancing swiftly toward Zhou Fu and landing a brutal kick to his chest.

This person had just assaulted Xiuxiang, leaving her completely helpless. But now, he was kicked back and crashed heavily against the wall covered in instruments of torture.

Xiu Xiu was momentarily stunned, until the ropes binding her limbs were untied and she fell into a warm embrace. She came to her senses then, realizing she had been saved. The suffocation pain and the relief of being rescued overwhelmed her, causing her to cry out with a "Wow!" : "De, Dechun Grandpa..."

She cried so hard that her tears, snot, and blood mixed together into a mess, smearing all over Dechun's crimson clothes.

De Chun was a little amused and exasperated, with a hint of disapproval in his eyes. But he didn't push her away, instead reaching out to pat her head: "Don't cry, it's alright."

Xiu Xiu ignored him, still crying her heart out. De Chun, having no other choice, vented his anger on the others. He glared at Zhou Fu and Wan Dong: "Tie them up! I'll interrogate them personally."

Seeing the person who had just been arrogant and domineering now trapped like a zongzi, Xiuxi finally calmed down a little. She looked out the door expectantly: "Where's my aunt Why hasn't she come to get me"

De Chun's expression was a bit complicated: "Auntie Xie Yun, she..."wontons in a storage box and putting them in the refrigerator, Shen Yian stretched lazily and glanced at the time.I didn't realize it was already eleven o'clock.She hesitated for a moment, then pulled...
