Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The bodyguard did not hold back at all. The whip that lashed Su Qianxin’s back had torn her clothes apart although it was only one strike. The whip went all the way down her back, and there was a stinging pain.
Su Qianxun collapsed onto Ye Gu all of a sudden. Ye Gu’s body stiffened up immediately.
Long Sijue’s pupils contracted. He stood up as he witnessed the scene before his eyes. Ye Gu turned around and helped Su Qianxun to her feet.
“How are you feeling?” Ye Gu’s voice was trembling.
The bodyguard was so shocked that he was drenched in a cold sweat. He did not Young Mistress Su to just lunge forward like that. He looked at the wound on her back.
Su Qianxun did not have time to care about herself as well. She anxiously explained, “Ah Jue, stop hitting him! What happened today was my fault. It has nothing to do with Ye Gu.”
“Young mistress. It is true that I did not protect you properly! Young Master, you should punish me!” Ye Gu said with a frown.
“But… you rescued me! I was the one who was not careful. How can we blame that on you?” Su Qianxun raised her head and pleaded.
Long Sijue looked at the young woman, who was standing together with Ye Gu. It was as if both of them were a couple.
“Ah Jue…”
Before Su Qianxun could beg for mercy on Ye Gu’s behalf, Long Sijue suddenly grabbed her wrist and raised it. “Do you think that you have the right to question my punishment of my subordinate? Have you forgotten even your own surname after I’m nice to you for a few days!? Stop being full of yourself!”
Su Qianxun looked at the man’s gaze which seemed icy cold, and she sucked in a sharp breath. Her mind was blank. ‘Full of myself?’.
She thought that her relations.h.i.+p with him had become a little different compared to how it was before. It seemed that she was indeed being full of herself.
Su Qianxun’s eyes turned red. Tears began to fill her eyes. She tried to hold the tears in, expending all her effort to prevent the tears from streaming down.
“I’m very sorry. I will not be full of myself again in the future. But Ye Gu has been punished. Young master, I hope that you can let him go out of compa.s.sion.” After Su Qianxun finished speaking, she withdrew her arm with all her might. She then turned and walked out of the study room.
As Su Qianxun’s hand slipped away, Long Sijue’s heart became empty. He clenched his fists tightly as he fixed his eyes on the young woman’s frail back.
“Continue!” Ye Gu requested as he remained kneeling on the floor.
The bodyguard looked at his young master anxiously. He did not know if he should carry on.
When Ye Gu saw that the bodyguard did not make a move, he suddenly whipped out a dagger and stabbed his arm. Ye Gu knew better than anyone that he would still punish himself even if the young master did not do it!
Because it was indeed his fault for neglecting to protect Su Qianxun today. It caused her to get hurt.
Long sijue kicked the dagger out of Ye gu’s hand. The dagger flew off towards the wall and penetrated it.
“Get out of here and tend to your wounds! No more next time!”
Long Sijue turned around and went behind the study table right after he said that. His mind was overwhelmed by the image of Su Qianxun taking a lash for Ye Gu without thinking about the consequences.
He suddenly picked up a pen from the table. Along came the sound of something being snapped. He had snapped the pen in half with the brute force he had applied.
Unfortunately, he was not that lucky this time. The snapped part of the pen had punctured the center of his palm…
Long Sijue continued applying pressure the pen sank deeper and deeper into his flesh. It seemed that only pain could calm him down in that very moment.
When Zi Fan arrived at Su Qianxun’s room, she was lying down on the bed. Huan Huan was crying relentlessly at her side and she was terrified. She saw Zi Fan coming into the room and quickly said, “Doctor Zi Fan, come and apply some medicine on the young mistress. The wound on her back is very serious!”
