Chapter 1603 Don’t Be a Slave and Be a Queen 33
So he left Xi Ying alone with Ling Che because he wanted them to get along for a while, and maybe there would be unexpected developments.
But Geng He never expected that there would indeed be an "unexpected" development, to the point where Xi Ying was about to die!
Until this moment, Geng He suddenly saw his own heart clearly.
He likes this girl and is willing to give up his entire plan for her! !
As Geng He ran towards the place where the scream came from, he kept praying in his heart, Xi Ying must not die, don't die...
Compared to Geng He's excitement, Ling Che and Ji Xin were much calmer.
No, it should be said that Ling Che was very calm.
Ji Xin almost went crazy.
"Holy shit! How come your Ling family has such a scary and gloomy place? Look, there's so much blood on the wall... Holy shit? That person is not the man who made rude remarks to you at the last banquet. Why is he locked up here? Look at the injuries on his body, oh let me go..."
Ling Che's face was so gloomy that it was almost dripping with water!
He really doesn't know what the so-called punishment room is like! There must be something wrong with this!
When they reached the place where the screams came from, they were as stunned as Geng He standing at the door.
I saw that the person hanging on the shelf in the cell being whipped was actually——
A middle-aged man?
"Who wants to try again?" Xi Ying raised the whip in her hand and asked everyone.
Surrounding her were a group of male and female servants.
"What are you doing?" Ling Che stepped forward and glanced at the middle-aged man who was tied up and had whip marks all over his body.
He knew this man as the person in charge of all operations in the punishment room.
How could he be beaten like this? Was it Xi Ying's hand?
"Ah, you guys are so slow here." Xi Ying threw away the bloody whip in her hand and laughed.
Geng He rushed forward, held Xi Ying's shoulders and looked up and down. He breathed a sigh of relief after finding no wounds.
"What's going on?" Geng He's eyes swept over the others, and he found that several people had whip marks of varying depths on their bodies.
In other words, Xi Ying was not hurt at all, but the person who wanted to hurt her was hurt?
"They originally wanted to teach me a lesson, but I ended up teaching them a lesson instead." Xi Ying's tone was very relaxed, "And this person, Young Master Ling, judging from your expression, you probably don't know much about this so-called punishment room. I've already investigated it for you. These people are at best accomplices." Xi Ying pointed to a group of servants next to him.
The servants bowed their heads deeply.
"And this person is the leader and catalyst of the entire plan. I don't know what his purpose is in turning the underground of the Ling family manor into such a prison of crime, but one thing I can be sure of is that although other noble families are now I won’t say it, but over time, the Ling family’s popularity in the rich country will definitely become unstable. I think no one knows the conflicts of interests better than Mr. Ling.”
These words made Ling Che look at Xi Ying deeply.
This is not something that ordinary people can say or see.
This Xi Ying really impressed him.
It was not the playful mentality of expelling someone's nationality just because she was special at first, but truly treating Xi Ying as an evenly matched companion.
Geng He noticed Ling Che's gaze and felt a sense of danger in his heart.
