Chapter 18 (2/2)

As the tenth hit finally landed on her, Bei Gongyan finally turned to look at Mi Xiaoqi.

She lied on the stool drenched in sweat and tears. He bent down in front of her, then used a finger to raise her chin, ”Now, do you know what you did wrong?”

”There's nothing wrong with me wanting to go home! I have done nothing wrong.”

For some unknown reason, Mi Xiaoqi didn't admit defeat and even had the energy to glare at Bei Gongyan. G.o.d, if Mi Xiaoqi's Dad knew Mi Xiaoqi was this brave, he would give her thumbs up. To think someone like Mi Xiaoqi, who could sense the emotions of others, would actually retort Bei Gongyan without fearing death.

”If you don't know what you did wrong, then you can continue to be beaten.”

Bei Gongyan's expression darkened. Once the guards heard the order, they instantly went back to executing the punishment.

Mi Xiaoqi bit on her lips, where little droplets of blood were already forming. Her face was as white as a sheet of paper.

”w.a.n.gye, please stop the beating, Miss won't be able to take it,” Lu Lou crawled towards Bei Gongyan, and begged while kowtowing.

”Miss, please stop being stubborn. Just apologize to w.a.n.gye, Miss.” Lu Lou looked at Mi Xiaoqi with and aching heart.

Although she had already been hit with twenty daban, without Bei Gongyan's order, the guards didn't dare stop.

Mi Xiaoqi glared at Bei Gongyan with a face that refused to concede defeat. She had never yielded this much in her lifetime, but in order to to stop people from looking down upon her, Mi Xiaoqi was willing to throw her caution into the wind.

But why the h.e.l.l did she suddenly feel no pain in her b.u.t.t. Her vision was getting hazier, and not only was Bei Gongyan disappearing, she couldn't hear Lu Lou's cries anymore. Furthermore, she saw Kaka run towards her.

”Kaka……” Mi Xiaoqi suddenly blacked out.

”Mi Xiaoqi!” Bei Gongyan shouted loudly, ”Stop! Benw.a.n.g orders you to stop!”

He shoved the guards away and picked Mi Xiaoqi into his arms, ”Get the Imperial Physician!”

For goodness sake, what was with this turn or event. w.a.n.gye was the one who ordered then to beat her, yet now he was the one regretting it. The guards executing the torture knew that they couldn't play around anymore. What if their w.a.n.gye pushed all the blame on them, what were they supposed to do then? Therefore, they immediately threw away the wooden board in their hands and rushed out to find the Imperial Doctor.

”Miss!”

”Mi Xiaoqi!”

Bei Gongyan craddled Mi Xiaoqi, afraid to lie her down on the bed right away. Lu Lou followed them into the room, and carefully helped Bei Gongyan place Mi Miaoqi onto the bed on her stomach.

”Kaka…..Kaka….” Mi Xiaoqi kept calling out Kaka, her was mind blank. No matter how hard Lu Lou tried to wake her up, she just wouldn't open her eyes.

”Wuu, w.a.n.gye, what do we do? Could it be that the Miss has turned…..dumb, from the beating, wuu.” Lu Lou cried like there was no tomorrow.

Bei Gongyan felt so agitated that he glared at her, terrifying Lu Lou so much that she forgot how to cry.

”I miss you, I really miss you, Kaka.” As she said that, her head had fell to the side, and she stopped talking or doing anything.

Bei Gongyan raised his hand towards Mi Xiaoqi's face, and placed his finger underneath her nose. Phew, she was still breathing…..He sighed with relief. Mi Xiaoqi, who is this Kaka?

Like it or not, Benw.a.n.g will definitely peel off his skin!
