"Yes." She said: "Although I know it, my hands are full of blood and I am trapped in it. I can't crawl out. I just wait to die and go to hell."
"Why can't you crawl out?" Xia Tong raised his voice: "You just never tried to get out. These bastard things were all done by Qin Hansheng, and you can only be regarded as an accomplice at most."
She looked at her, her eyes blurred either due to the deep night or other reasons.
Xia Tong suddenly grabbed her hand: "Mute, can you help me? For the sake of the child in my belly, you don't want Mrs. Darcy's grandson to die innocently, right?"
"Help you..." she repeated blankly.
"Yes, help me escape." Xia Tong said firmly: "Saving one life is better than building a seven-level pagoda. Besides, what you are saving now is two lives. Mrs. Darcy is in heaven. Do you hope that you will go to hell after death?"
Hell, can't I see her again in all eternity?"
Her eyes flickered, as if she was a little moved by her words.
"How can I help you? Letting you out will definitely not work. I can't betray the master."
"You don't need to let me go." Xia Tong said, "If you let me go, Qin Hansheng will definitely not let you go."
Xia Tong thought for a while, then suddenly possessed her and said a few words in her ear. After hearing this, the mute was a little confused: "That's all?"
"Yes, that's all. You just need to tell him my situation, and he will know."
She hesitated for a moment, and finally nodded hesitantly: "Okay."
******** ********
This night, there was another sleepless night. Xia Tong spent the next time lying on the corner of the bed, her body curled up in pain, and half of the pillow was soaked with cold sweat.
At dawn, the door to the room opened. A servant came in with breakfast. Xia Tong sat up with difficulty, her body already on the verge of paralysis.
She was tired and in pain, but the stronger feeling was that of hunger. She suddenly realized that she had not eaten anything for almost three days.
Qin Hansheng was the last one to walk in: "The endurance and physical strength are not bad, I can endure it all night."
Xia Tong ignored his words, got up from the bed, picked up a piece of bread on the table and ate it hungrily.
Qin Hansheng chuckled and said: "You didn't dare to eat anything before, but now you are not afraid that I will poison you?"
"There are thousands of ways you can kill me, and there is no need to resort to such a crude method as poisoning."
Hearing this, he narrowed his eyes slightly and suddenly overturned the tray containing breakfast, causing the food to fall to the ground.
Xia Tong raised his head, not sure why.
"You are quite smart." He smiled: "It's a pity that being smart makes me annoying. Are you so hungry that you can't stand it?" He folded his arms and sat on the sofa next to him, folding his legs: "Okay, crawl on the floor to eat.
Bar."
He smiled, with a bit of gloom and disdain in his eyes, and faced her tightly, as if he was sure that she would not dare.
Xia Tong stood up from the bed, picked up the bread on the ground calmly, brushed the non-existent dust on it, and took a big bite.
"I'm sorry to disappoint you, Mr. Qin. But I have always felt that dignity is nothing compared to living."
******* *******
After Qin Hansheng left, Mute picked up the mess on the ground and said, "You shouldn't anger him like this."
Xia Tong sat on the window sill and looked at the bright sunshine outside: "Anyway, my current situation is already extremely bad. I don't mind getting worse."
She shook her head, seemingly helpless.
Xia Tong turned around: "Mute, I'll leave it to you this time."
She picked up the broom: "I can help you, but I hope you won't do anything to hurt the master after you leave. I have been with him for so many years and I don't want anything to happen to him."
"..." Xia Tong was silent.
"would you promise me?"
"Okay." While agreeing, Xia Tong silently said sorry in her heart, she lied to her again. She couldn't treat everything that happened before as if it didn't happen. If Qin Hansheng is not eliminated, there will only be more people in the future.
Trap this deadly whirlpool and lose your life.
She came over and held Xia Tong's hand: "Remember to say sorry to the young master for me."
******** *******
At 9 o'clock in the evening, Qin Hansheng was sitting on the sofa in the living room, flipping through the newspaper casually, while Sister Jing stood by the side.
Suddenly the newspaper in his hand fell to the ground, he covered his chest with one hand, and his expression became abnormal.
"Master, what's going on?" Sister-in-law Jing squatted down in shock and asked.
His voice was hoarse: "Help...help me go upstairs."
"Yes." Mrs. Jing hurriedly greeted the two maids, and helped Qin Hansheng go upstairs. Halfway there, a maid suddenly covered her nose strangely: "It smells weird, isn't it?
What's burned?"
"Why are you burnt? Don't talk nonsense!" Mrs. Jing snorted coldly.
Another maid said: "It really smells like paste!"
At this moment, someone downstairs shouted: "No, no, no, there seems to be a fire in the north guest room... put out the fire..."
Sister-in-law Jing’s steps stopped and she was on fire?
"There's really... there's really a fire..." The maid saw thick smoke billowing outside through the window, and she was so frightened that she let go and ran downstairs.
Qin Hansheng lost his support and almost fell to the ground. Sister Jing hurriedly stepped forward to help him. However, within a moment, there was a panic in the villa, and many servants ran out. Qin Hansheng stroked his chest and breathed rapidly.
, seems to be holding back great pain.
"Master, how are you? The villa seems to be on fire. I'll help you out..." Sister-in-law Jing said.
Even in such a weak state, Qin Hansheng did not show any panic on his face. His dark eyes sank, and he vaguely seemed to have guessed something. He said in a cold voice: "Go and see if Xia Tong is still there?"
The fire was getting bigger and bigger, and Sister-in-law Jing was anxious: "Let me help you out first."
"Go!" Qin Hansheng raised his voice: "If you don't go, I'll go." After saying that, he tried to push her away. Sister Jing had no choice but to help him sit on the stairs, "Master, wait, I'll go."
have a look."
Sister-in-law Jing hurried to the second floor, groped along the smoke-filled corridor, and finally found Xia Tong's room. When she opened the door, she found it was empty. The window of the room was open, and even the mute was nowhere to be found.
She had a general idea in her mind, and when she anxiously returned to the stairs, she found that Qin Hansheng had disappeared.
Sister-in-law Jing's mind went blank for a moment. She shouted: "Master, Master, where are you?"
"..." What answered her was the sound of the beam being burned to the ground by the fire: "Bang!"
She turned around and was about to continue searching when a man pulled her back. It was Mute: "Let's go quickly. If you don't go, it will be too late."
"The master is gone..." Mrs. Jing raised her voice and shouted: "He might burn to death here. No, I have to go find him! I want to take the master away!"
"Don't be stupid." The mute said: "It's such a mess now, where can I find it? If you don't leave, even you will be burned to death!"
Sister-in-law Jing was furious. Thinking of Xia Tong who was missing, she grabbed the mute by the collar and said, "Xia Tong is gone, can you let him go?"
The mute said nothing.
"Xia Tong is gone, and the villa is on fire again, how could it be such a coincidence?" Sister-in-law Jing tightened her clothes: "You must have set the fire, just to save Xia Tong! Why are you so cruel? You forgot
What has the master done to you over the years? You actually wanted to burn Zuo Fengshan and kill the master for a stinky girl?"
The mute pushed her away: "I didn't set the fire!"
"You still say no?" Sister-in-law Jing rushed towards her angrily, but she narrowly dodged it.
The mute said coldly: "I admit that I let Xia Tong go, but I never thought that she would set fire to the villa, whether you believe it or not. I only know that if we don't leave, we will both die. It's up to you to die if you want.
It’s okay, I don’t need to be buried with you.”
After she finished speaking, she ran out of the villa. Sister Jing stood stiffly on the spot for a while, gritted her teeth, and ran out after her.
********* ********
In the black Land Rover, Xia Tong was curled up, her whole body trembling due to drug addiction, and her forehead was covered with cold sweat. Gu Haoran took off his coat and wrapped her tightly, his expression tense.
After a while, he stretched out his hand and touched her face, with a hint of heartache in his eyes: "They actually did this to you?"
Xia Tong avoided his gaze, a little embarrassed, as if she didn't want him to see her face.
"I...I'm fine, it's just a little uncomfortable. It will pass after you bear it." She didn't know what happened. She only remembered that her drug addiction started to attack at 8 o'clock in the evening, and it was more severe than yesterday.
When she was in bed in excruciating pain, she heard the window of the room seemed to open, and then Gu Haoran appeared in front of her. Then she fainted from the pain, and when she woke up again, she was already in the car.
She tried her best to ask: "You... how did you rescue me? Didn't Qin Hansheng find out?" It shouldn't be, Qin Hansheng has always been cautious, how could he succeed so quickly?
Gu Haoran avoided her question and only asked anxiously: "What's wrong with you? What did Qin Hansheng do to you? Why is this happening... Could it be..." Looking at the defeated look in front of her, a thought came to her.
He suddenly came out: "Did you be forced by Qin Hansheng to take drugs?"
Xia Tong gritted her teeth and nodded: "Yes...it's devil." After saying that, she groaned and started to tremble.
Devil? He was stunned. How could he not know about the legendary drug that came from the devil in hell?
No wonder she was disfigured, no wonder she was in so much pain now, no wonder...
Suddenly, he punched the seat with his fist. If he had known this, he should have shot the man to death instead of just setting a fire.
He pulled her into his arms and comforted her: "Xia Tong, it's okay, the nightmare is over. Tomorrow, I will ruin the reputation of the Qin family and even the entire Di Sheng! I will avenge you and my sister!"
********* ********
For most of the night, the entire Zuofeng Mountain was shrouded in thick smoke. Fire trucks and ambulances passed by in a staggered manner. Outside the villa, more than a hundred servants could be heard crying. Mrs. Jing's face was covered with gray and she looked numb.
stood outside the door.
Whenever first responders carried out an injured person from the villa, she would run up and ask, "Excuse me, have you seen my master?"
What comes back to her is always a cold shake of the head.
Half an hour later, a black business car parked at the door. Qin Muzhen got out of the car and was obviously stunned when he looked at everything in front of him. He walked over with a gloomy face, grabbed a servant and asked:
"what happened?"
The servant cried with tears all over his face and could only shake his head.
At this moment, a maid ran over from nowhere and said: "I found the master, I found the master!" There was joy on her face.
Everyone was stunned, Sister Jing was the first to run over, Qin Mu was stunned for a moment, and followed closely behind.
On a grassy area in the garden, when Mrs. Jing saw Qin Hansheng lying on the ground and unconscious, she was immediately frightened and screamed: "Someone is coming, someone is coming... It seems that the master is not alive, please send him to him quickly."
Hospital."
Qin Mushi ran over and checked his breathing calmly, his expression relaxed slightly. He quickly stood up, carried Qin Hansheng on his back, and ran towards the ambulance not far away.
There was chaos in the emergency room of the hospital.
Outside the door, things were not much better. Qin Mujie asked coldly: "What happened? Why did Zuo Fengshan suddenly catch fire? How did dad end up in the hospital?" Suddenly, he stood up, a little nervous.
Holding Sister Jing's shoulders: "Where is Xia Tong? Where has she gone? Has any of you seen her?"
"Xia Tong?" Sister-in-law Jing sneered: "Young Master, I am lying in the emergency room now, with my life and death uncertain. At this time, are you still thinking about that heartless woman? Do you know that what happened tonight
She was the one who started the fire!"
"What?" He opened his eyes in disbelief: "Impossible!"
Sister-in-law Jing continued to sneer: "How is it impossible? That woman is really vicious. When the master saw that she was sick, he gave her food and drink, and also found a doctor to treat her. On the contrary, she got better. Not only did she set fire to the entire villa, but she also
She ran away during the chaos. Did our Qin family do anything to offend her? She wants to harm us like this?"
He frowned.
"Master, the young lady is indeed missing." A maid came out: "Before the fire started, I saw a strange Land Rover passing in front of the villa. After the fire started, the car disappeared, and the young lady was nowhere to be found.
."
Land Rover, he took a step back. He remembered that Gu Haoran drove this kind of car.
What happened? Why did things become so chaotic that he was stunned in just a few days?
He didn't believe that Xia Tong would set fire to Zuo Fengshan, because there was no reason at all. There must be some other reason, it must be...
He calmed down: "Let's wait for the police report on the cause of the fire. As for Xia Tong..." He paused. At this moment, the lights in the emergency room went out, and a tired-looking doctor walked out of it.
come out.
Sister-in-law Jing rushed over and asked nervously: "How is the doctor? My master..."
The doctor shook his head: "The situation is not very optimistic. The old man has already reached the advanced stage of lung cancer and is in very poor and weak health. During the fire, he happened to be ill and was not sent to the hospital in time. Although he has been rescued for so long, can he still
It’s hard to say whether I can survive tonight.”
Late stage lung cancer?
Hearing these words, everyone was stunned. Qin Muzhen stepped forward and said coldly: "Lung cancer in the late stage? You said that my father...has lung cancer?"
