Chapter 787: Su Ruanruan Punishes Chen Er
Su Ruanruan gave a faint smile: "I am not well at all."Chen Er knew something bad was about to happen. He snuck a glance at He Jitang: Master Jitang, save me!
While spreading out rice paper to write, He Jitang did not lift his head and said indifferently: "You let Miss Su vent, only then will you be safe in the future."
Chen Er’s legs trembled.
He had experienced Su Ruanruan’s methods before. Even with no grudges, she was still ruthless, let alone him contemplating attacking Bao Jingyan.
He collapsed on the ground: My life is going to end here!
Chen Er, afraid of death, shamelessly clung to He Jitang’s thighs: "Master Jitang, considering my past merits, please beg Miss Su for mercy on my behalf!"
He Jitang sneered coldly: "For a dog like you, killing you would only dirty my hands! The Fourth Miss won’t really kill you, you just need to let her vent."
Su Ruanruan knew he was pleading secretly for Chen Er, yet she showed no reaction.
She leisurely peeled fruit.
After cutting a plate of fruit, she said it was for Chen Er to eat.
Chen Er did not believe her goodwill.
Su Ruanruan lowered her eyes: "If you don’t come over here, we’ll have to change the method."
Chen Er, frightened, hesitantly approached.
Su Ruanruan smiled faintly: "I have treated you well in the past, even spared you under Third Brother’s consideration when you set me up! Bao Jingyan is my eternal beloved, yet you sought to put him to death, Chen Er, let’s settle this account properly."
Chen Er knelt on the ground, wept bitterly, and began his usual appeals: "Please spare me, Miss Su! All this was for Master Jitang and Miss Su’s sake, the two of you are a match made in heaven; it was the Bao family who blocked the way...I was just momentarily confused, not knowing Miss Su’s deep affection for Young Master Bao."
He slapped himself on the cheeks, hitting himself dozens of times until his face swelled like a pig’s.
Su Ruanruan drank a cup of tea.
After a while, she smiled lightly: "Does your hand hurt? Put it on the table let me see."
Chen Er, seeing her gentleness, thought secretly: Women are tenderhearted indeed!
He placed his hand on it, while shakily continuing his act: "I was truly wrong, Miss Su! I was blind; I will never again meddle in others’ affairs."
Su Ruanruan said with a smile: "Poor thing...your hand has swollen!"
Chen Er thought to act coy.
But the next second, he screamed like a pig being butchered—
Su Ruanruan’s fruit knife in hand, pierced through his palm, nailing it firmly to the table.
Blood dripped profusely!
Chen Er had seen blood before, but now turned cowardly when it was his turn.
He pleaded pitifully, yet dared not move!
He Jitang was also slightly shocked: His Fourth Sister was known for civility, usually just having someone spanked, but she didn’t even blink in such a scenario.
Su Ruanruan watched him, smiling slightly: "I promised Third Brother not to take his life."
She pulled out the knife handle.
Chen Er screamed in pain, rolling on the ground.
He Jitang kicked him: "Useless wretch!"
He ordered people to carry Chen Er away to heal, then looked back at Su Ruanruan.
She sat under the light, delicately wiping the knife with a tissue, and in that moment a complex feeling arose in He Jitang’s heart, he gently asked: "Has Fourth Sister vented her anger?"
Su Ruanruan threw the knife in front of him.
She smile faintly: "No!" With that, she walked out!
After she left, He Jitang suddenly lost his temper.
He threw all the rice papers on the desk to the ground.
A confidential letter was brought to him: "Hidden by Miss Su, perhaps there was no chance to send it out."
He Jitang opened the letter, indeed it was written to Bao Jingyan.
Each word, each sentence, brimmed with longing.
He Jitang’s expression turned inscrutably dark; he gently removed the Palace Lantern’s cover, brought the letter close to it and lit it...
The paper quickly burned to ashes.
He Jitang asked indifferently: "Has there been any movement from Bao Jingyan, has he really lost his memory?"
