The Newlywed's Sweet Honey: Husband, Pamper Me to the Bone!-Chapter 854: Do You Love Me or Him? (Part 4)

Lan Yueru was utterly shocked!

Xin was kneeling on the bed, repeatedly bowing her head to her, and with her motion, a putrid stench wafted over.

It was her leg wound. As it hadn’t been cleaned or treated, the inflammation was worsening.

"You..." Lan Yueru trembled as she uttered the word.

Xin, having undergone years of training, already possessed extraordinary willpower and endurance!

What kind of torment could make her abandon all pride and dignity, kneel before her enemy, and bow just to beg for a quick death?

She had guessed that Si Jue wouldn’t spare Xin, but she hadn’t expected him to be so ruthless!

Lan Yueru trembled and stepped back. Even if she hated Xin’s heartlessness, she could not bear seeing her like this.

"Was it Si Jue?" she asked softly.

Upon hearing that name, Xin shivered, dropped her head, and her tangled hair covered all her expressions.

"Aunt Lan, please give me relief." She cried helplessly like a little girl, "I was wrong, I was really wrong!"

Selected by the organization back then, trained day and night, though it was hard, she never felt as embarrassed as now, like a festering bug even she despised!

Yan Sijue... truly merciless!

He knew of her pride and arrogance to the core, and thus humiliated her in this way, destroying everything she held dear!

Now, her eyes are blind, her legs are crippled, even if she lives, she’s just a waste, better off dead!

But considering the idea of dying in such a disgusting state, grief naturally arose.

Seeing her like this, Lan Yueru’s eyes involuntarily reddened.

"Xin, I originally came to ask you why you did such a thing to me." She smiled bitterly.

"It’s me... I was delusional, and crazed! I hated you for not standing by me..." Xin sobbed, "Aunt Lan, I was wrong... please, give me relief!"

Lan Yueru was silent for a long time, finally slowly turning away, her voice indifferent: "I’ll plead with Si Jue to spare you. If he doesn’t agree, I’ll come to you again."

The implication was if Yan Sijue refused to spare her, Lan Yueru would personally grant her relief.

Xin cried and laughed: "Thank you... Thank you, Aunt Lan..."

Whatever Xin mumbled further, Lan Yueru could no longer hear.

She quickly left Xin’s room and exited the basement.

Returning to her room, she felt as if the stench still lingered on her body.

Remembering how Xin used to patiently wash her body, Lan Yueru sighed softly.

...

Lan Yueru’s visit to Xin was quickly known to Yan Sijue.

Their conversation couldn’t be kept from him.

He frowned slightly, said nothing, and waved his subordinates away.

Not far off, on the beach, Mu was whimsically setting up a barbecue. Xiaoze excitedly slathered on the sauces, and mother and son were covered in soot, a pitiful sight.

But both were smiling joyfully.

Yan Sijue did not understand what was fun about this activity, yet the laughter of mother and son was exceptionally contagious.

He eventually strode over.

Xiaoze saw him from afar, ecstatically waving a grilled fish: "Daddy! This is personally grilled by me, do you want to try it?"

Yan Sijue glanced at him, took it, and threw it into the trash can.

"Junk food, not allowed to eat."
