Shrewd wife of Lin brothers

Chapter 432 – Mine To Protect

Su Wan whose heart finally settle down and her eyes turned red didn't cry when she was being subjected to a torture she had never suffered. 

Even though she knew that even if she died tonight no one will be able to do anything about it. This wasn't the modern world where murder and arson was a crime. If she died then she might end up being buried in some hidden spot without even a marked grave and that will be it. 

She was afraid of dying, of pain, of everything but she still didn't cry but now she was back in Lin Jing's arms surrounded by a familiar warmth that she was used to. 

Su Wan's eyes turned so as she hugged Lin Jing burying her face in his rock hard chest that was giving her the stability and sense of security that she has been missing for a while and then. 

"Wuu… Ah Jing I was so scared. I thought you will never find me. I thought I was going to die. The whip had barbs and it slashed my skin. It hurts so much…I wanted to cry but I didn't because I knew you will come to save me." 

Su Wan was now like a child who has found a backing. She an was arrogant and a bitchy person but she was no fool. 

She knew how scary today's ordeal was a single mistake, a little bit of delay and she could have died. 

She had never suffered so much at least not physically. She was strong emotionally and knew how to control her emotions but physically she was weak. She was very weak. And yet she suffered so much how can she not cry? How can she be not scared? 

Su Wan cried for ten minutes straight before her sobs turned to hiccups and she passed out. She was already very weak after bleeding for more than an hour so it wasn't a surprise for Lin Jing when she fell unconscious in his arms. 

Through out the time he has been drawing circles on her back. Trying to calm her down… there were so many things that he wanted to say so many things he needed to apologize for but now wasn't the time. 

He just wanted to hold her close and feel her breath against his skin. It was a proof that she was alive and back in his arms. 

Only God knows how scared he was throughout the entire journey. If not for the window being too small for his size. He would have gone to look for Su Wan himself!

Lin Jing held her against him pressing her small head against his chest. Right where his heart was -he leaned forward as he let his chin rest on her fluffy head and took a whiff. She smelled of blood, smoke and something sweet like the knock out incense that he and Lin Chen used on Fang Zimo. 

His heartfelt unsettled she didn't smell anything like herself and that was enough to piss him off. 

His wife might not be perfect but she was his life. She has shown him and his brothers light when they couldn't see it by themselves. She dragged them out from the dark abyss when they thought they will die right there…

The perfect her, his light, his warmth -was so cold. She was so broken that Lin Jing didn't even know how long will it take him to fix her. All because he was too weak -too naive and too kind. 

Something dropped next to him as two loud thumps and a loud snap of bones being broken resonated around the clearing. 

He cast a cold glance sideways and picked Su Wan up in his arms before wrapping her up in his jacket. He didn't even flinch as something red and warm sipped in his shoes. His eyes were flickering darkly as he softly caressed Su Wan's face. His gaze fell on the wound on her chin and immediately he gnashed his teeth so loud that the sound echoed in the surroundings. 

A low thump came from beside him only then did he turn to look at Lin Rui who was wiping the blood out of his hands. 

He didn't even ask what Lin Rui had done in the room as he casually said. "Ne, Ah Rui… if only…if only I had the guts to kill that woman when she tried to put her hands on Ah Yan. Do you think that Wan Wan would have never suffered so much?"

Lin Rui paused as he crouched down to pick the end of the ropes he had tied to the servants. "You could have never done it Eldest Brother."

Lin Jing's lips curled in a mocking sneer as he stared at Su Wan's bloodied appearance. "That's right I could have never done that … because I was weak and that's why you all suffered so much."

"No, we didn't Eldest Brother-"

But Lin Jing didn't hear a thing as he softly caressed Su Wan's cheek. "Yes you did, if only I broke the hand of that old woman when she touched you all. If only I snapped those wrists of those that stole your salary, if only I had the courage to say 'That's enough', no one would have touched you all. No one would have dared to touch what's mine." 

He cupped Su Wan's face as his expression turned fierce. "She is mine, everything about her is mine, and I am going to fu**ing tear that woman in half for hurting what's mine to protect!"

"Madam -he is here." The trustable aide of Luo Xin walked up to her although he knew what he did was definitely courting death there was nothing he could do. 

He had promised the Old Master Luo that he will take care of Luo Xin. Even though Luo Xin believed that the Luo family was never guilty about what they did to her the truth was ..they were… they just wanted the best for Luo Xin. 

Who would have thought that she would turn crazy. If not – then Luo Xin would have long died in the hand of Old Master Fu. 

It was only because of her brother's protection that she was able to cause havoc like this it's such a pity that she could no longer understand anything.

"Nanli …Nanli is here?" Cried Luo Xin as she stood up from her chair with a beaming smile.
