Chapter 1113: Xia Yu’s Visit
She covered her face and looked up at him.
Suddenly, she found that she didn’t seem to know this man. She had failed to truly know him after all these years.
In the living room, his expression was gloomy, and the tall figure stood against the light, making people feel chilly. Pei Ziheng stepped forward to grab her thin coat and gave her a backhanded heavy slap. He hissed word by word. “You are so daring, how dare you kill someone? Do you know how much trouble killing Wang Jingwan will bring to me?!”
She suddenly opened her eyes and even forgot the pain. What, Wang Jingwan was dead?!
She looked at him incredulously, her lips twitching before she finally said, “I, I didn’t kill her.”
“You still dare to make excuses?!” Pei Ziheng was furious. He slammed her onto the floor. “Why didn’t you tell me when you went to find her yesterday?! You didn’t dare to tell me because you were killing someone! She died in the coffee shop because of a poisoned cup with your fingerprints on it. The coffee shop even has a surveillance video of you inside!”
Xia Ling was shocked. How could Wang Jingwan have suddenly died there?
Wang Jingwan had clearly been fine when she’d cried and run out!
She shook her head and couldn’t speak.
Pei Ziheng still thought she was trying to deny it, so he continued forcing her. “How did you kill her, tell me in detail! Xia Ling, you have to pay with your life for killing someone. The Wang family is furious and the whole world is looking for you to pay for it!”
Xia Ling murmured, “I didn’t do it.”
In exchange for her words was a vicious slap on her face.
Her face was swollen and blood was oozing out of her lips.
She looked at him with an empty expression and heard herself ask, “You don’t believe me?”
Pei Ziheng said coldly, “Believe you? How could I believe you? Yesterday, you went to see her behind my back. Over these years, you have never hidden anything from me before and you purposely didn’t tell me about this. Did you think that by killing her you could stop her from marrying me? I’m telling you, even if Wang Jingwan is dead, there are still thousands of prestigious ladies out there. Are you able to kill all of them? Stupid!”
Her body trembled. It turns out…
The list of his wife candidates was so long, and there was no place for her at all.
Her weight in his heart was far lower than all those women.
Xia Ling looked sullen and suddenly, she didn’t want to argue anymore.
He refused to let her go. “Why aren’t you talking? Did you think you could hide all these stupid things you did? Tell me how you poisoned her and where you bought the poison from. I can help you out of the sin.”
“Offence?” She suddenly laughed. “Pei Ziheng, why are you helping me out of my sin? The police have not fixed my sin yet, yet you’re fixing it first! You’re really amazing, even more powerful than the police!”
“Pa!” Pei Ziheng gave her a tight slap.
“Don’t challenge my endurance,” he said gloomily and softly. He dragged her up with one hand to their bedroom. He tied her to the bed and tore her clothes. “Xia Ling, you’re refusing to tell me, right? Then we’ll do it again like last night.” He knew she was scared and was in great pain. Her painful moans and screams last night still echoed in his ears. All these years she had been spoiled by him, and couldn’t stand even a little bit of pain, not to mention rudeness and ruthless violation.
Sure enough, Xia Ling shivered and curled herself up, and even her eyes were shaking.
But to his surprise, she still refused to admit it. She only said, “Pei Ziheng, I hate you. Why didn’t you die with Wang Jingwan? Or let me die like Wang Jingwan.”
Perhaps death was a wonderful thing. At least then, she could live forever in the illusion that he loved her.
Pei Ziheng’s expression was cold and he pinched her chin. “Tell me! Don’t beat about the bush!”
She smiled in sadness and laughed intermittently. “Tell you? After saying it… what will happen? Pei Ziheng, do you think you’re my savior? After saving me… you’re letting me, letting me… continue seeing you with other women, and marry a woman called Li Jingwan or Zhang Jingwan? Just let the police shoot me. You’ll be freed, I… would be freed too.”
His hand grabbed her long hair and she screamed in pain.
“You want to die?” He gnashed his teeth. “I’ll fulfill your wish.”
There was tearing pain in her body, and the place where she was injured last night was torn again. The wound that had just healed was forced to bear a second injury, which was more painful than the last time.
She resisted in vain, struggling, praying that it was just a dream…
However, the nightmare seemed endless.
Xia Ling did not how many times, but she woke up later and her two wrists that were tied to the bed were worn out and the blood flowed down her white arm. However, no matter what kind of abuse she suffered, she insisted on her words under his interrogation. Since he didn’t believe she didn’t kill anyone, she might as well say it a few more times.
Her heart was broken, and even if her body was broken, so what?
Sixteen years ago, he had taken her from the orphanage and given her a new beginning, just like giving her life.
Now, she would just give it back to him.
His hugs lasted as long as a purgatory.
For the next few days, Pei Ziheng tried to torture her and force her to tell the truth about killing Wang Jingwan. But she either closed her mouth or said, “I didn’t do it, you are the stupid one.”
He found remnants of the poison from her practice room and threw it at her face.
She coughed and smiled weakly. “You found it in my practice room? Pei Ziheng, I don’t believe you. You’re trying to swindle me? The level of you trying to extort a confession from me is getting lower… Hahaha…”
He beat her again until she fell to the ground. Her forehead hit the corner of the bed and drew a lot of blood.
She fell into a coma. In her unconscious state, she heard many people walking around as well as the sound of cold machines.
She heard the family doctor say, “Sir, Miss has many internal organs bleeding and has a slight bone fracture. She must be sent to the hospital for treatment immediately. Sir, please don’t treat her like this again or she might die!”
A familiar hand touched her face.
After a long time, she heard Pei Ziheng’s voice say, “There’s no need to send her to the hospital. Just treat her at home.”
“Yes, but the conditions at home are too rudimentary. It’s very easy to leave behind residual effects…”
“I said, treat her at home.” Pei Ziheng interrupted the doctor’s words.
There was silence.
When she woke up again, she saw Xia Yu. The beautiful and delicate girl sat by her bed and cried, her tears falling off her face. “Sister, you’re awake?” Seeing her open her eyes, Xia Yu’s face was full of surprise. “How do you feel, does it hurt anywhere? Brother Ziheng is too vicious to be so abusive to you!”
She looked at her younger sister and felt the sorrows and grievances accumulated over the days rise in her heart. She wanted to cry, but could not. She didn’t want her to worry, she had always been the support for her sister all this time. No matter how much she suffered, she was still the older sister and shouldn’t worry her younger sister.
