"You lied!" Xu Manmiao cried anxiously, "Brother-in-law, she beat me. Look, how red and swollen is my face?"
Luo Xiao casually glanced at Xu Manmiao's red and swollen cheeks, and then saw An Zhisu, who was looking calm and peaceful, "You didn't hit her, could it be that she did it herself?"
An Zhisu nodded.
"Liar, you liar!" Xu Manmiao said excitedly, "It was obviously you who beat me, even Chunni can testify."
The maid who called Chuni knelt on the ground with a plop and said, "Yes, I saw with my own eyes that it was indeed the princess who beat the second young lady."
"I ask you again, did you hit her?" Luo Xiao stared into An Zhisu's clear eyes with sharp narrow eyes. Those eyes seemed to tell him that she did not lie, but...
An Zhisu nodded again.
"Come here, give me the stick and beat her until she admits it!"
Xu Manmiao proudly looked at An Zhisu, who was lying on the bench and being beaten with a cane, "You deserve it!"
She knew that her brother-in-law still had feelings for her sister who became the sixth princess, so she protected her. Maybe it was her brother-in-law, her brother-in-law was... thinking about it, her cheeks turned red.
The scorching midday heat seemed to be enough to bring down the fire. An Zhisu was covered in cold sweat on her forehead. She clenched her teeth and endured pain one after another. The pain spread all over her body, and it seemed that her skin had been torn apart.
She couldn't help but recall her life in modern times. Since the day he adopted her, she had experienced a series of the most severe tests.
At that time, he told her, 'Lies are your language, disguise is your protection, and patience is your way to survive for a long time. Never trust anyone, including me.'
Later, in the bloody turmoil of the underworld, she was trained to become an outstanding killer. She also remembered everything he told her and did it every time. But he said, 'Don't fall in love with me.'
This was the only thing she failed to do.
Later, he was ambushed by the Qing Gang, and he told her one last thing, "Susu, from today on, forget your identity as a killer, put away all your skills, be an ordinary woman, and live an ordinary life."
, Always protect yourself." Then, when she agreed to him, he died in her arms.
Luo Xiao frowned and stared at the woman who was so quiet even when she was beaten. Did he see it wrong? How could he read the shadow of sadness in her eyes.
After hearing the news, Yuchi Yue came over and saw An Zhisu's purple shirt was stained with blood. He said in a deep voice, "That's enough. She is just a weak woman. If you continue to beat her, she will be beaten to death!"
"But she beat me and lied. This is an indisputable fact." Xu Manmiao argued, "She should be punished! Brother Yue, please stop speaking for her."
"But the punishment for her is enough!" Yuchi Yue's voice was a little angry, "Besides, it's not certain who lies!" He looked at Luo Xiao with his dark eyes, "Don't you think you were a bit of a coward?"
"Don't you think you believe a little blindly and are too emotional?" Luo Xiao replied coldly. What ability does this woman have to make Yu Chiyue intercede on her behalf?
