Chu He opened her eyes, but they were already bloodshot.
Pain.
So painful...
Because of the immense pain, her eyes could not move.
“Will you sign it or not?”
The person at the side raised the whip and waved it in front of her. It seemed he was trying to frighten her, but it also seemed he was trying to threaten her. It was as if the moment she said the word “no”, this whip would come at her again.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtChu He’s lips quivered. However she did not nod her head obediently and beg for mercy like a little pug, the way he wanted her to. Instead, she said coldly, “You can dream about it!”
“Ha!”
The man sneered and shook out the whip. It landed on the ground with a sharp crack that echoed around.
“You woman, you’re pretty stubborn! Boss has instructed us to wait until you’ve signed the contract and put your thumb print on it... tonight! Why, are you tired of living?! You can’t even withstand three lashings, so how are you going to deal with the rest?!”
Chu He glanced at him out of the corner of her eyes and retorted, “Whether you wish to kill me, it’s entirely in your hands! I will either die here or take the child away. There is no third option!”
“Are you unafraid of death?!”
The man turned ashen.
Before Old Master left, he had specifically instructed him that she was to sign it. His mission was to force this woman to sign the agreement. If he couldn’t complete the mission, then he would be the next one to be punished!
This woman was so stubborn, it was unlikely that she would change her tune even if he were to continue whipping her.
He couldn’t possibly kill her, right?
Old Master had even instructed him to keep her alive!
If he were to kill her, wouldn’t his master skin him alive?
At the thought of this, the man could no longer maintain his composure, because he could not predict if this woman would be able to withstand a few more lashings!
Life is a fragile thing at times, and there is only a thin line between life and death.
Hence, the man summoned his subordinate and asked him to report the situation.
The subordinate was also a quick-witted person. Seeing how Chu He was half-dead and on the verge of collapse, he feared that she wouldn’t be able to hold on and hurriedly ran to the study.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmGu Jinglian was reading a book in the study when the subordinate rushed in and said nervously, “Old Master, that woman refused to sign the papers and we’ve given her three lashings. Seeing that her body is very weak, I’m afraid she can’t take it anymore! If this continues, she’ll definitely die from the beating!”
“Oh?” Gu Jinglian frowned.” She still refuses to sign?”
“That’s right.”
The young lackey nodded his head vigorously. “She passed out after being whipped three times. Not only did she pass out, but we also went up to her and found that under the gauze on her head, was a surgery scar. The stitches haven’t even been removed! It looks like she just had a surgery and hasn’t recovered yet! These three lashes were really vicious! If she still refuses to sign after being whipped like this, it’s futile! If this goes on, she’ll definitely die.”
When Gu Jinglian heard this, he clenched his fists in anger. “She’s really stubborn!”
“I’m afraid it’s because of her maternal instincts!”
The lackey sighed. “After all, it’s more cruel than any torture to ask a mother to give up her child’s custody!”
“Are you speaking up for her?” Gu Jinglian glanced at him suspiciously.
He immediately defended himself, “It’s no use! It’s just that... I feel that this girl is quite pitiful! She’s a little tough, but... it’s hard to get annoyed at her!”
“I didn’t ask you to judge her!”
