Chapter 2: Karma Arises Like Birth [Act 3] Disillusionment (6)

Lin Jingru struggled desperately, looked at Voss who was slowly walking towards her in disbelief, and cried loudly in disbelief: "Impossible! No way! Why are you doing this!? Please let me go! Let me go!! ”

"Enough, put away your tears! Miss Lin, you don't think about it carefully, I, Emma Edelgard Vos, have been the steward of this castle for more than ten years, if I betray my master, why wait until today? Voss squinted at Lin Jingru, who was crying and struggling on the ground, took out the jade bracelet from his pocket, raised his eyebrows and chuckled, "When you handed me this thing, I guessed your abacus, and I had already arranged it." You don't have enough to hide from me! ”

As soon as the words fell, there was a loud round of applause from behind the crowd around him, and a deep male voice smiled slightly: "Dear Emma, well done! Now it's not just yours, I, Andrew, have a few other sets of fine jewelry here for you to choose from. ”

As he spoke, he saw that the people around Lin Jingru quickly dispersed to both sides, and a suffocating oppressive aura surged like a tide, and everyone bent down and bowed their heads, not daring to face the comers.

"Thank you for the generous reward!" Emma, the housekeeper, stabilized her fierce heartbeat, picked up her skirt and bowed slightly, and gave Andrew a standard aristocratic salute, and then glanced at Lin Jingru coldly, "Since Miss Lin values it so much, I, Emma, will give it back to you!" After speaking, he smashed the jade bracelet in his hand to the ground!

"No—" With a shout, the rare treasure in the world suddenly burst into thousands of pieces! The turquoise grains couldn't stop jumping and rolling on the ground. Lin Jingru lay on the ground, stroking the broken grains with both hands, crying in despair, knowing that this only chance to escape was like this precious bracelet broken, and there was no more. (hua.)

Seeing Lin Jingru's actions, Andrew raised his lips and sneered, stepped on the debris and slowly walked to her side, raised his black boots against her chin, and forced her to raise her face. After a while, the ice-blue eyes were full of murderous intent, looked around, and coldly ordered: "Escort back, whip twenty!" ”

Suddenly, everyone, including Emma, froze in place and gasped - the leather whip was made of beef tendon soaked in tung oil for a long time, and even an adult sturdy man could not bear it! What's more, they all looked at the petite body of the woman lying on the ground! Can she stand it? I'm afraid that there will be less than three lashes, and it will be-

Lin Jingru looked at Andrew in a daze, and when her eyes touched his clothes, she said in disbelief: "How is it possible!?" Your uniform, it turned out to be—" But before she could finish a sentence, a brown-haired manservant slammed his whip down at her, and there was an exclamation from beside her, and some of the male and female servants around him turned their faces away, and some closed their eyes tightly, unable to bear to see it.

With a crisp sound, a terrible scream sounded in the gloomy corridor. Lin Jingru's chest was torn open by the whip, and blood splattered out, flowing freely on the cheongsam that was so dirty that it was completely impossible to see the original color! She bit her lower lip tightly, her body convulsed from the severe pain, her cheeks were as white as paper, and her forehead and neck were wet with cold sweat.

"Ein (German: one)!" Seeing this shocking wound, Andrew's ice-blue eyes didn't blink, he glanced sharply at the whip manservant, and his cold voice made the temperature around him drop a few degrees, "Let me continue!" If there is a whip that is lighter, it will let you also taste this extremely comfortable 'grace'! ”

The manservant was so frightened that his legs went limp, and he almost fell to his knees. I had to close my eyes, grit my teeth, and whip again. In Andrew's "zwei (German: II)! In the midst of the cold and hard words and the screams of others, Lin Jingru heard another scream, which was unbearable!

But just as the third whip was about to fall, a maid hurried in and approached Ema's whisper. Emma's face changed drastically, and she hurriedly picked up her skirt and bowed to Andrew, "Master, Colonel Eric Ludwig von Hoffmann of the Wehrmacht Army has called, please answer it immediately." After speaking, he slowly raised his eyes and carefully examined Andrew's expression.
