Chapter 41: My Young Sister Died to Save You
“He’s locked in a small room. That lad ran to the refugee area in F State and got himself tortured until he was almost half-dead,” Na Yankun said with a grin.
He already had a face that was terrifying enough to make children weep. This smile made him look even more fiendish.
As Chi Jiao looked at Na Yankun’s face, the corners of her lips twitched.
She had saved this person by chance. Since then, he had been following her and working for her.
Other than his ferocious appearance, there were no other problems.
At the very least, he had always been very loyal to her.
“You’ve worked hard.” Chi Jiao smiled.
“It hasn’t been hard. Master Jiao, hurry up and take a look at that brat.” Na Yankun couldn’t resist Chi Jiao’s soft and sweet smile the most.
She was clearly such a powerful person. Why was her smile so adorable?
Chi Jiao nodded and walked towards the small room.
The curtains in the small room were drawn tightly. Only a thin streak of light shone through the gap in the curtains into the room.
There was only a mattress and a wooden chair in the room.
Chen Zishun leaned against the cold wall and sat on the bed as he watched Chi Jiao walk into the room with a gloomy expression.
“Long time no see, Ah Shun.” Chi Jiao walked to the wooden chair and sat down.
Chen Zishun was in a terrible state now. He had never been in such a sorry state before. As he looked at the clean young lady in front of him, a dark glint flashed across his eyes for a fleeting moment.
“Jiaojiao, I know I was wrong.” Chen Zishun stood up and squatted down in front of her, like a dog wagging its tail pitifully. He looked at her pleadingly and said, “I know I was wrong. I’ve already returned the seeds to the laboratory. Please let me live.”
He knew that the young lady before him had grown up in the mountains. Therefore, she was naive and soft-hearted.
She had never been willing to say harsh words to the people around her.
He believed that as long as he put away his pride and begged her, she would spare him.
Yankun, who was standing outside and eavesdropping, couldn’t help but bare his teeth and curse inwardly when he heard Chen Zishun beg for mercy and admit his mistake.
This traitor. He knew Master Jiao was soft-hearted, so he admitted defeat just like that.
Chi Jiao sat stably in the chair and looked down at Chen Zishun.
In her previous life, she had indeed been soft-hearted. But in this life…
Towards people who weren’t worth it, of course, she wouldn’t show any mercy.
Chen Zishun saw Chi Jiao looking at him with a faint smile, her pitch-black eyes terrifyingly deep. For a moment, he couldn’t figure out what she was thinking.
This Chi Jiao seemed a little different from the gentle and harmless girl in his memory.
But he couldn’t tell exactly what was different.
“Jiaojiao, think of my younger sister. Back then, to save you, she…”
Chi Jiao interrupted him before he could finish.
“Don’t bring up your younger sister. If your younger sister knew that you were so shameless, she would definitely feel ashamed for you.” Chi Jiao’s tone suddenly turned cold as if it was soaked in ice that couldn’t be melted.
In an instant, Chen Zishun looked like a chicken that had its throat pinched as his face turned red.
“But my younger sister died to save you,” Chen Zishun said word by word, staring at Chi Jiao with red eyes. “For her sake, You should let me live!”
Chi Jiao laughed softly and looked down at the malevolent-looking Chen Zishun. “Is this the first time you’ve done something like this? Yan Qingqing will be here later. She’s bringing a document. Why don’t you take a look at it first?”
