Chapter 503 They took her (2/2)

Hearing her words, Qin Xue's eyes shook and her free hand grabs Yue Ling's arm.

”Your friend was also captured? Where is she?”

Feeling the tight grip on her arm, Yue Ling did not push the woman away. She shook her head and answers.

”My friend was able to escape.”

Relief wash over Qin Xue. She is regretful that Yue Ling is another victim like them, but if this friend was able to escape, it meant another woman is free from this hell hole.

Thinking of all the unimaginable things that has been happening, she couldn't help but cry too.

Yue Ling sat down next to the two women and waited for them to calm down from crying. With what they went through, they must have tried very much to keep their sanity.

After a few minutes pass, the two women finally calmed down as they could only sound sniffles inside the room.

”Sorry… I didn't mean to cry.”

Shi Yan apologizes as she wipes her tears away. Since she was brought in here, she could only hold onto hope.

Hope that they would all be saved soon.

Staring at the young woman, Yue Ling sighs inside. She lift her hand and gently pat her on the head.

”Being here is a scary thing. It's normal to cry.”

She looks around the room again then to the small window. The light was slowly disappearing as it wasn't as bright outside anymore.

”How long have you both been here?”

Qin Xue sniffles and wipes her tears. Looking at Yue Ling, she wanted to cry again, but could only hold herself back.

”I've been here for three days. Shi Yan has been here for a week now.”

Thinking about something, her shoulders slouch and slumps more to the ground. Her lower lip trembles as she chokes out her next words.

”There was another girl with us. She was much younger than Shi Yan, but those men… They…”

She covers her mouth remembering what happened and she sobs again. She couldn't bring herself to finish her sentence.

Yue Ling's heart dropped to her stomach when she heard Qin Xue's words. Even if she did not finish her sentence, Yue Ling could already guess what might had happened.

However, taking a deep breath, she place a hand on Qin Xue's shoulder and looks the woman deep in the eyes.

”What did they do to her?”

Lowering her head, Qin Xue shook her head. She cannot answer the question. Not because she doesn't want to, but because it was a dreadful moment they had to witness.

”They took her…”

From the side, Shi Yan answers in an almost sobbing voice. She looks at Yue Ling and held onto her arms.

”Those men took her. They said they wouldn't do anything to us, but they still took her.”

Yue Ling was able to see the pain mix with anger in Shi Yan's eyes.

From the information Li Wei gathered, he said Chu Li Xiang ordered his men to not touch any of the women in fear that it might soil his plans. However, why the sudden change?

Knowing that something is not right, she could only ask.

”What happened?”

Qin Xue was able to pull herself together and began to explain the details.

”Before, they would always us alone, but today, they suddenly started taking one woman after another.”

From the time they were captured, the men did not lay a finger on them. Each passing day, they were given food and water like usual. However, today, for some reason, the men would come and take a woman of their choice.

They didn't know where the women were brought to, but they could hear the petrifying screams of those women taken along with the laughter of the men who took them.

Just hearing their voices was enough to tell what is happening.

The younger girl Qin Xue and Shi Yan mentioned had been captured before them. However, because she was younger, the man who came into the room took interest in her and dragged her out.

They could hear her screams and cries, but after an hour passed, it suddenly went quiet. She was never brought back to the room nor did the men mention her again.

It was most likely that they tortured her before killing her.

Remembering the scary event, Shi Yan wails in tears and wipes her tears away. However, each time she wipe the tear, another would fall then another.

”T-Those scums… t-they said they're going to come back for more.”
