C189 (1/2)

Xie Jingxi and Fang Yu were respectively imprisoned.

Xie Jingxi endured the discomfort in her stomach and carefully distinguished the smells in her surroundings. There was a fishy smell unique to the water, and the green aura of the food. Fortunately, she was very sensitive to smell, so overall, she was trapped in the same cabin.

This was within her expectations. She had observed the surrounding terrain, and had also analysed the people of the Abandoned Crown Prince, they were extremely close to the capital, and the limelight from searching for the Abandoned Crown Prince and the remnants of the King Qin was not over yet, they did not have the luxury of living in the surrounding towns openly, and hiding on these ships that were used to transport grain was the most likely possibility. There were too many people here, and most of them were hired short term labourers.

However, before that so-called great character could come inside, Xie Jingxi had tried to force the strange object out of her mouth. If she didn't take it away, she would have been choked to death by her own sour water, resulting in her losing a lot of strength. As her cheeks became sore, she lost all of her intuition.

This was truly a difficult situation she had never experienced before. Looking at her bulging stomach, her heart felt desolate, but soon she gained the courage to do so. For the sake of the child in her stomach, she could not panic.

The people who worked hard still sweated profusely, and did not show any signs of stopping. The cabin of Xie Jingxi's ship was covered by a black cloth, so it was unknown whether it was night or day. The moment the cabin door was opened, a ray of sunset shining in, and Xie Jingxi, who was blindfolded, felt it.

The person who came in was only here to deliver food, so she casually untied her hands and said in a sloppy tone, ”Hurry up and eat, you're a VIP guest, the higher-ups have instructed you to treat me well. Truly a good-looking person will eat incense wherever you go.” The man sized her up and suddenly thought of something. ”I just don't know how it feels like. It's not illegal to touch her.”

Xie Jingxi felt her scalp go numb, and in an instant, her entire body was covered in chicken skin. The moment that stranger's hand touched her chin, she could not help but sour water surge upwards, and then, without reservation, spurt all over that person's body.

”You! Such bad luck! ” That person's vomit was everywhere on his body, including in his hands. He raised his hand in anger and was about to hit her.

”Master Qing, you're here.”

Xie Jingxi sneered, ”This little big bro, when I get sick, it's easy for you to bite your tongue. If you dare to take half a step closer, I'm sure you won't blame me if I bite your tongue off, right?”

The man who delivered the food, who was threatened by her, retreated with his face covered in dust. Xie Jingxi clenched her teeth tightly, and managed to suppress the tears that were about to flow down his face.

It was indeed Gu Qing.

An unprecedented hatred rose in her heart. Sooner or later, she would settle the debt between Gu Yun, her grandfather, and her child with him!

Fang Yu's treatment was much worse, her hands and feet were tied up, they were thrown inside a boat filled with food, no one brought food to her, no one bothered with it, because she had drank the medicine that reduced her cultivation beforehand, her spirit was not as strong as before, but fortunately she was resistant to the medicine, so the effects of the medicine did not last long on her, she had to wait for the effects of the medicine to completely wear off.

and Fang Dai were sisters, but they had been training on different paths since they were young. Fang Dai had a steady personality, and was suitable to take on important tasks, so she learnt everything in one go, and was a good hand at everything. On the other hand, Fang Yu had been intelligent since young, and her bones and muscles were also top-notch.

It was unknown how many poisons had been poured into her stomach. Apart from often soaking in the medicine, the so-called resistance to drugs required one to taste them personally. It was also known as the Masked Sweat Powder or the Soft Muscle Powder, which she once ate as food because she couldn't eat for a few days because she was sick from drinking it once. In their group, those who could not hold on might not die, but they would definitely become the most useless person. If she wanted to become outstanding, she could only endure it, thus Fang Yu was born with tenacity.

She had suffered all sorts of grievances along the way. Although everything had been arranged appropriately, it was still exposed. Not only did she let down the eldest young master and his wife, she also let down herself. As long as she found a chance to escape, she would definitely let the person who plotted against her off easily.

In the darkness, Fang Yu's eyes were sparkling. They were already unable to wait for help, so they could only rely on her to save the Madam.

Feng Dong accompanied the dazed Ming Yu off the boat. It was still early in the morning then, and the sun was still hanging low in the sky. He was preoccupied with something, and thought that he should find a place to stay.

His guess about Lady Liu had already been confirmed, and his emotions were mixed. In the end, he did not ask her anything, but only asked her: ”Does Lady Liu have any plans?”
