Chapter XVII: Threats

With such a magnificent Zhou family, such an elegant and beautiful Zhou family, who would have thought that he would still have a chilling secret prison. And Zhou Wenfeng, who is the head of the family in this secret prison, doesn't know it, it seems that the Zhou family still has a lot of secrets that no one knows.

And Zhou Ruoning is now sitting in the secret room, fiddling with the handkerchief, while raising her eyelids and casually glancing at Zhou Ruoshui who is standing aside, as if waiting for her to speak. But after waiting for a long time and not seeing her answer, he said impatiently: "It's been so long, it's time to think about it." ”

Zhou Ruoshui, who had been bowing his head, didn't expect his sister to really do this. It seems that outsiders still know Zhou Ruoning. At this time, she realized how helpless she was, and said quietly: "Since Daddy has already agreed with Son, why does my sister come to ask Shui'er's opinion, and why put Shui'er in that embarrassing place!" ”

Looking at the face that made me hate, disgust welled up in my heart. Since Zhou Ruoshui returned home, her father and mother have shared their love for herself with her, and there are always people who compare these two Miss Zhou, and the sky is even more unfair and let all the good things fall on her head.

Zhou Ruoning raised her eyebrows, looked at her with hostility, and snorted contemptuously: "My sister is meticulous and thoughtful, and I will hand over Brother Lu Jue to my sister to take care of, and I, as a fiancΓ©e, will feel a lot more at ease!" ”

Everyone is like that, and who cares about her feelings. Zhou Ruoshui's heart was like a knife, and Yu Yu refused: "If Shui'er is stupid and says something wrong or does something wrong, won't it cause trouble to my sister, and my sister should choose someone else!" ”

Zhou Ruoning leaned forward slightly, stared at Zhou Ruoshui, and evoked a sarcastic smile: "It's really ridiculous, didn't my sister say that for the sake of her family, she will do everything without regrets?" Why is my sister just such a small request, but my sister doesn't agree. ”

Zhou Ruoshui's eyebrows lowered slightly, and he said with sadness: "Since the son has decided to withdraw from Shui'er, he doesn't want to see Shui'er again, so why should my sister embarrass Shui'er." ”

"You don't want to go."

"The matter has come to this, what kind of face does my sister let Shui Er face Childe."

Zhou Ruoning stood up and walked to Zhou Ruoshui's side with small and seemingly elegant steps, and ruthlessly revealed her scars one by one and said: "It's no wonder that sister, all men in the world are the same, who doesn't want to have family members around him like flowers, not to mention that he is a high-ranking official and nobleman, and he has seen a lot of famous ladies, and few people can control it." Brother Lu Jue talked with his sister in the hall for two hours as soon as he came today, during which there were many opportunities to send someone to invite his sister as long as he spoke, but he never mentioned it, which shows that he regretted it, and it was whose it was that God made people go around in a circle. ”

He is just a substitute, Zhou Ruoshui has realized it from the beginning. The only thing she didn't understand was why Lu Jue had to reply to herself one after another. Is it just to make myself more uncomfortable when I learn the truth? Zhou Ruoshui bit his lip tightly, trying to suppress the sadness in his heart, until there was a trace of blood in his mouth, and then he said, "Shui'er retreats." He saluted, turned around and was about to leave.

"Stop." When Zhou Ruoning saw that she was leaving, her face sank, and she drank the person.

Zhou Ruoshui stopped, turned around and asked, "What else does my sister have to say?" ”

"You'll find out in a moment." To hold Zhou Ruoshui in her hands, the only way to do it was to take out the killer weapon, Zhou Ruoning turned her head and gave Qiu Ju a look to indicate what she should do at this time.

Qiu Ju walked to the opposite wall, raised his hand and grabbed the ring embedded in the wall, and knocked rhythmically.

After a while, a secret door appeared on that wall, and slowly the door opened. Two stout mothers-in-law came out of it, and the two mothers-in-law were dragging a woman covered in wounds. The two dragged the woman to the center and threw her to the ground, and the woman fell to the ground without even saying a word.

One of the tall women took two steps forward, saluted and said respectfully, "The eldest lady has brought it." ”

Without waiting for Zhou Ruoning to speak, Zhou Ruoshui on the side had already recognized who the woman on the ground was. She had already rushed to the woman's side at this time, and she didn't care about the mess on the woman's body. Holding the woman in his arms, he called out the woman's name, trying to wake her up: "Xiao Ai, Xiao Ai, you wake up, Xiao Ai, Xiao Ai." After screaming a few times, seeing that the woman's eyelids moved, she hurriedly brushed away the messy hair in front of her, revealing that pale and emaciated face, Zhou Ruoshui looked incredulous, didn't she already go home to visit her parents? How is it here, is it 、、、、、、

Listening to Zhou Ruoshui's voice, Xiao Ai tried hard to open her eyes, saw Zhou Ruoshui's anxious gaze, opened her lips full of cracks, and said in a hoarse voice: "Second Miss, Second Miss, why are you here." ”

At this time, Zhou Ruoshui understood why her sister brought her here, and she didn't know how to express her guilt for Xiao Ai, and apologized again and again: "I'm sorry, it's all because of me, it's me who has tired you!" I'm begging my sister to let you out. ”

"Miss, no, Xiao Ai can't bother you." When he raised his eyes and looked around, he saw Zhou Ruoning standing aside, and he understood why his young lady was here. Hurriedly broke away from Zhou Ruoshui's hands and crawled towards Zhou Ruoning, as a young lady's girl, how could she make the young lady embarrassed herself.

"Xiao Ai." Zhou Ruoshui also hugged and helped, staggered and followed Zhou Ruoning.

It took a lot of effort to climb in front of Zhou Ruoning, Xiao Ai had already used up his strength, and it took several efforts to get up from the ground and kneel in front of Zhou Ruoning. knocked on her head and pleaded out breathlessly: "Eldest Miss, please let the eldest lady let the second lady go!" Punish the slave or maid for any wrongdoing. It doesn't matter if the slave is a subordinate, I ask for the eldest lady, I ask for the eldest lady. He put his hands on the ground and knocked again.

Zhou Ruoshui also half-knelt and half-squatted to support Xiao Ai, looking distressed and blaming himself: "Xiao Ai, don't be like this, I can solve this matter." ”

Xiao Ai turned her head to look at Zhou Ruoshui, shook her head at her, and continued to kowtow to Zhou Ruoning and begged: "Ask for the eldest lady、、、、、、"

"Fuck off." Zhou Ruoning was extremely disgusted, and raised his foot to kick Xiao Ai away.

"Xiao Ai" Zhou Ruoshui immediately helped Xiao Ai up, let Xiao Ai lean in his arms, and then looked up at Ruo Ning in a firm tone: "Sister, why should you be like this, Shui Er should go down to my sister." Please let my sister let Xiao Ai go! ”

What is the purpose of Zhou Ruoning's fight after being locked up here for a few days, Xiao Ai has heard how much the guards have said, and now that he hears Zhou Ruoshui say this, he naturally tries his best to stop it. She grabbed Zhou Ruoshui's clothes tightly and shook her head again and again: "Xiao Ai is just a subordinate, it doesn't matter what happens, since my uncle is here, it proves that there is a young lady in my heart, and young lady must not miss the opportunity for the sake of slaves." ”

"No, I can't let you suffer for me anymore." Zhou Ruoshui turned his head to look at Zhou Ruoning and said again: "I'll go, please let my sister go!" ”

Zhou Ruoning smiled proudly as she wished, and beckoned to the two mothers-in-law: "Take her away." ”

"Yes." The two mothers-in-law didn't dare to slow down, one dragged Xiao Ai to the secret room, and the other pulled Ruoshui.

"Xiao Ai, Xiao Ai, you let go of me, let go, where are you going to take her, you let go of her. You let go、、、、、、 Xiao Ai" Zhou Ruoshui tried hard to break away from her mother-in-law's hand, but where could she break away when she was thin.

Don't look at the scenery of the rich and noble family, but the identity of this concubine is clear, and the concubine is sometimes not as good as the subordinate, not to mention the illegitimate son. You are favored at home, and your subordinates give you face, and no one will take you seriously when the master is not there.

The mother-in-law squeezed Zhou Ruoshui's wrist hard, smiled and persuaded: "Don't struggle with the body of the second young lady's daughter, lest the slave maid hurt you." β€œ

"Ask the eldest lady to let go of the second miss, and beg the eldest lady to let the second miss go. 、、、、、、" With the closing of the secret door, Bao Xiaoai's voice could not be heard really.

Seeing that the struggle was fruitless, Zhou Ruoshui turned his head and looked at Zhou Ruoning with anger, and his voice also raised a few points: "Didn't I already promise my sister?" Why do you have to go back on your word. ”

Zhou Ruoning stretched out her slender jade fingers and pinched Zhou Ruoshui's chin, and said coldly: "Do you think you are qualified to negotiate conditions with me!" ”

Zhou Ruoshui endured the pain in her jaw, stared at Zhou Ruoning with anger in her eyes, and said in a dumb voice: "That's my fault alone, why should I implicate others." ”

After listening to Zhou Ruoshui's words, Zhou Ruoning's subordinates used a little more strength, squinted their eyes slightly, and said, "Do you know what a hostage is?" In order to prevent you from going back on your word. ”

Zhou Ruoshui was just about to say something when he heard a sound. The secret door opened from the inside again, and only the tall woman came out alone. I saw her dragging a brown-red tray with both hands, and on the tray was a little finger, drenched in blood.

Zhou Ruoshui's eyes widened in surprise when he saw the severed finger. Although she was supported by her mother-in-law, she still couldn't stand sitting on the ground. For the sake of family harmony, he has been swallowing his anger and carefully avoiding it, but now he still affects the people around him. Zhou Ruoning made such a ruthless move, and he couldn't help but regret why he didn't agree early and let Xiao Ai suffer from this broken finger!

The tall woman glanced at Zhou Ruoshui with slanted eyes, walked over proudly, lifted the tray and said in a loud voice: "Miss Hui, the task is complete." ”

Zhou Ruoning glanced lazily, waved his hand with a look of annoyance, and said, "Give it to the second lady." ”

As soon as her voice fell, Zhou Ruoshui's body trembled, and she looked up at Zhou Ruoning, who did not have a trace of self-blame, and angrily accused: "My sister was enlightened at the age of five, and she also read a lot of sage books, don't you even understand this most simple truth?" ”

"You dare to teach me a lesson." Listening to these harsh words, Zhou Ruoning's eyes were ruthless.

Zhou Ruoshui stood up with difficulty, and said: "Since Shui'er returned to Zhou's house, she has always been polite to her sister, and she hasn't done anything to be sorry for her sister, why does my sister 、、、、、、" Zhou Ruoshui has not finished speaking.

'Bang' Zhou Ruoning had already slapped Ruoshui in the face, and angrily pointed at Zhou Ruoshui with red eyes and said angrily: "Don't tell me the truth, my father and mother tolerate you, they are kind-hearted, but I Zhou Ruoning does not tolerate sand in his eyes." You want to borrow Lu Jue's hand to climb on my head, delusional! If you dare to play any tricks, I will cut off Xiao Ai's remaining fingers and give them to you one by one. You can not care about Bao Xiaoai's life. She slowly approached Shui'er's ear and said coldly: "I don't believe it, you don't care about Lu Jue's life!" ”

Listening to Zhou Ruoning's cold words, he looked at that stunning and ruthless face. Nervously asked, "Isn't Xianggong my sister's fiancΓ©?" ”

These words reminded her of Lu Jue's ruthless refusal, and she was even more angry, reaching out and pinching Zhou Ruoshui's chin. said coldly: "Don't think that when Lu Jue comes, someone will support you, you should understand these four words, if it really comes to that time." We'll just shoot it and do what I say. ”

After all, Lu Jue was still Zhou Ruoshui's weakness, his hands hung weakly at his sides, his eyes were almost desperate, and he said faintly: "Whatever my sister says, Shui Er will do." ”

Zhou Ruoning likes to see this sister the most, cowardly and helpless. She smiled smugly and looked at Ruoshui with a smug face: "Very good, this is my good sister." ”

At this time, Zhou Ruoshui didn't know what else he could do, and his only thought was to take care of Xiao Ai. She opened her mouth and asked, "Please ask my sister to allow Shui'er to take care of Xiao Ai." ”

"No need, she is still useful to me, don't worry I won't let her die." Zhou Ruoning took the tray from the widow's hand and handed it to Shui'er: "Put it away and keep a thought." ”

Where is this thought, it is clearly a warning. It is to remind Zhou Ruoshui all the time that Xiao Ai is in his hands. Zhou Ruoshui took the tray with trembling hands and stared straight at the bloody fingers, as if he saw it being cut off from Xiao Ai's hand.

"Have a good dream." Zhou Ruoning patted Zhou Ruoshui's shoulder with a smile, and walked triumphantly with easy steps.

Seeing Zhou Ruoning disappear from his sight, he turned his head to stare at the wall, and secretly made a decision in his heart that no matter what he did, he must rescue Xiao Ai.

But how to save it, who can help him find a way?
