C10 (1/2)

The small path — she still remembered that maid. Wasn't that the little beggar that Bu Jinghua brought back from the market? This was the path that had delivered the steamed buns to her that night.

Staring at the young maid who was sitting on the ground, Bu Jinghua's mind went blank for a moment. She wanted to rush over and help her up, but the one who needed to be taught a lesson was Little Ju.

”It's you …” ”Young miss!” Seeing the newcomer, Little Ju was truly frightened. Her disdainful expression instantly turned into one of fear. Although this young miss normally didn't care about it and didn't want to punish people, she was their master after all. She usually treated him quite well, but he had betrayed her … The more he thought about it, the more scared he became.

She already purposely hid from Eldest Miss for the past few days and thought that Eldest Miss would be beheaded by the Emperor. Even if she didn't, she would still be sent to prison. The eldest miss was completely fine. It had been almost three days, yet there was no news from the Bu Family. It looked like the rumors were not to be trusted!

Little Ju didn't dare to look Bu Jinghua in the eye because that glance just now had scared her out of her wits. She saw the anger in that pair of watery eyes.

”What is it? Didn't you hear what I just said? Or is it that the 'family rules' from before were only made by you? ” Even though Bu Jinghua's voice was soft, it was filled with an unquestionable coldness.

”I... Little Ju doesn't dare! ” Little Ju stood there, trembling in fear.

”You don't dare? ”Humph!” Bu Jinghua laughed, but the laughter became even more terrifying to Little Ju's ears.

”Why wouldn't you dare? You even dare to frame your master, what else do you not dare to do? ” Bu Jinghua took a step forward, scaring Little Ju so much that her back turned cold.

”I... Little Ju doesn't understand what Eldest Miss is saying! ” She actually knew how to speak calmly. She wanted to believe that this young miss was the previous Eldest Miss and was easy to fool. As long as the words of others were sincere and pitiful, her heart would soften and she would believe it.

”Don't understand? ”Humph!” Seeing Little Ju like this, Bu Jinghua became even more disgusted.

”Perhaps, I should think of a way to make you remember!” After he finished speaking, Bu Jinghua took the whip from Little Ju's hand and fiercely swung it. The whip accurately hit Little Ju's body and a scorching line of blood quickly appeared on her body.

She was very sympathetic, but she would not sympathize with someone who was not. If she did not whip the small path, then she could consider letting her go. That was because it was hard to avoid being forced to do so for the sake of her own life, but … All of this was evidence of her malevolence.

They fawned over those in power only to whip those weaker than them.

Ah!” Young Miss, please don't. I really don't know anything! ” With one lash of the whip, Little Ju's entire body began to tremble. She immediately lay on the ground and begged for mercy, but was unwilling to tell the truth no matter what.

”Hmph, you still don't know? Good, very good!” After he finished speaking, Bu Jinghua raised his right hand and the whip once again fiercely lashed onto Little Ju's body.

”Wuwuwu. Eldest Miss, please let me go. I beg you, wuwu!” Ever since Little Ju became a servant, she had always been under Bu Jinghua's command and had never suffered any grievances. It was just that she was occasionally accused of following an incompetent master and had no future.

Now, the person who treated her like a sister was actually slapping her. The master who had felt sorry for the bird after seeing it injured now dared to whip it with his whip.

Was it because she didn't understand her master, or because her master's personality had changed drastically?

If so, she would be in trouble.

Seeing the whips slapping on Little Ju's body, the surrounding maidservants were all stunned. The kind and good-natured Eldest Miss was actually so violent and cruel, wasn't she a little too terrifying?

In the past, even if they knew that the young miss was gossiping behind her back, they would not cause trouble for her. Now that they know about this, they wouldn't have any more fears. They didn't dare to say anything else in the future.

Each of the maidservants secretly reminded themselves that they were afraid that their young miss would come looking for them later in the autumn.

Miss, stop it, stop it, I'll say it, I'll say it, wuu!” Forcing a confession was not a difficult thing for Bu Jinghua. On the contrary, she did this quite a few times.

Hearing the sound of begging, Bu Jinghua stopped and waited there.

I say, wuu!” ”Feverfew nodded in fear.

”Who was the one who planned all of this? Why aren't you telling me?” Bu Jinghua knew that once these words left Little Ju's mouth, it would be time for the gossip in the city to change the topic.

”I said, I said, it's …” Just as Little Chrysanthemum was about to speak, an arrogant voice shouted loudly, cutting off Little Chrysanthemum's words.

”What are you doing?” Her voice was rather high, purposely interrupting her words.

”Second Miss …” When she saw the newcomer, the one who was the most excited was Little Ju. She immediately stood up and rushed over, timidly hiding behind Bu Jingfeng.

”Nothing, I was only training a disobedient maid!” Throwing away the long whip in his hand, Bu Jinghua unhurriedly replied. He used his pair of ice-cold eyes to look back at Bu Jingfeng. Their four eyes met, and sparks collided.

Looking at the scarred face of Bu Jinghua, the corners of Bu Jingfeng's mouth curled up into a satisfied and mocking smile.

”Train?” Hmph, do you know that she is currently my servant? ” Then, he looked at the bloody wounds all over Little Ju's body. He was shocked and angry at the same time. She was surprised that there was someone more ruthless than her, and that person was actually a good-for-nothing. The angry part was that everyone knew that Little Ju was already her favorite and that she still wanted to see who was the owner of the dog. Was Bu Jinghua trying to provoke her?

”Oh? Is that so? Wasn't she my servant all along? When did it become yours? ” Bu Jinghua sneered, ”Fine, I don't want this kind of dog that would bite its owner anyway. Since you're willing to accept it, Buddha will thank you!”
