131 Her Bone Was Broken (1/2)

He took a wooden rod from the side. Of course, this has been prepared for her in advance.

”Xia Ruoxin, enjoy this!”

His dark eyes turned cold, flashed with an indescribable ruthlessness. No one could be compared to him when he chose to be cruel. His heart was hardened; it was rigid.

The wooden rod fell, followed by a pitiful scream. Chu Lui threw the rod away, turned, and strode away without a backward glance at the poor woman… who was already unconscious on the floor.

He thought she deserved this. Finally, he understood that he could be cruel and break a woman's elbow with his own hands.

He heard the sound of bones cracking; a crackle. This sound was buried so deeply in his heart that he could never forget it.

He didn't even close the door.

Xia Ruoxin remained laying on the floor. Her face was colorless without any redness, her left wrist bent in an odd, unimaginable position and her right hand resting on her stomach.

She did not know how much time had passed after being woken by pangs of sharp pain. She looked at her hand and then at the wooden rod on the floor… back at the hand that didn't seem to be hers.

Every movement was numb: struggling to sit up using her shoulder with her right hand supporting the left gently, standing up, and wearing her shoes. She merely looked around at the pieces of paper that scattered everywhere in the room as she walked out. It was all torn, never to be pieced together again. She didn't have to be bothered with it anymore.

She walked out, opened the door, and went to the hospital. Alone. Whatever she was doing alone was done out of her instinct for survival.

She was not sure why, but she wanted to continue living.
