C7 Beg Him

Xue Chengkai purposely passed by the courtyard. When everyone saw him, they all left, leaving A-Jiao kneeling on the ground. He came to her.

"Do you regret it? Do you know how stupid your decision was last night? " He laughed at her overestimation of herself in front of him.

"General, this servant does not regret anything!" She had never felt a shred of regret.

Slave! Let's see how long you can last! Kneeling for a day and a day without food or water, even a seven foot man might not be able to take it, much less a woman. If we hang on until the end, we won't even be able to keep our lives! " "Chu Yan, on the other hand, would soon find the weather extremely warm. She had a severe night's cold, but the sun was scorching her heart. She could not take much longer.

"As long as you beg me, I might be able to let you go!" He was giving her a way out, a way out.

A-Jiao's head could no longer stand up. She rested her hands on the ground to prevent herself from falling down. She weakly opened her mouth and said, "Thank you, General. Your servant has done something wrong and is willing to accept your punishment!"

Xue Cheng waved his hand. "You don't know what's good for you!" After which, he left in big strides.

Twelve hours had passed. She knelt under the scorching sun without even dripping a drop of water. Her lips were already chapped from drying up. She was so dizzy that she could no longer see what was in front of her. For the first time, she felt so close to death.

She didn't want to hang on any longer. The faith in her collapsed, and with a plop, she fell to the ground.

She fell to the ground without any strength left in her. It was as if she was a lifeless corpse. She lay motionless on the ground for a very long time. Suddenly, a person ran to her side and gently helped her up.

"Elder sister, elder sister, wake up! Wake up!" A young boy's voice sounded in her ears.

It was her brother, Lian Ah Sheng! Why is he here?

She used the last bit of her strength to raise her head and open her eyes. She saw her brother looking at her nervously. She was so willful that she forgot about the younger brother who needed her the most. Ah Sheng was only ten years old, and she promised her father that she would take good care of him.

"Ah Sheng, why have you come? Let's go, don't let anyone see you. The general has ordered that no one is to come." She did not want to implicate her brother at this time.

"No, sister. Ah Sheng has brought some water and dried food for sister. You should drink some water secretly. If you don't, you will die." He took out a kettle and two steamed buns.

"Ah Sheng, I can't drink it. Go, quickly! Let's leave while there's no one around!" She pushed her brother away.

"Eldest young mistress …" Ah Sheng was about to speak when he heard footsteps behind him.

"Who dares to disobey the general's order to send water to this lowly slave!" The person who had come was Xue Da, the butler of the Xue Manor.

A-Jiao pushed her brother away and continued to kneel. Xue Da looked at the canteen in Ah Sheng's arms and said loudly, "Good little brat, you actually secretly sent your sister some water. Do you want to be punished together with her?"

"Steward Xue," A-Jiao pleaded weakly, "my little brother is still young and inexperienced. Please forgive him."

Xue Da grabbed Ah Sheng and lifted him up. Ah Sheng was strangled by him. He turned his head and bit on Ah Sheng's hand, but the pain made him loosen his grip.

"Little bastard, how dare you bite me!" See if I beat you to death! "

Xue Da said as he shook Ah Sheng off his feet and kicked him hard. How could a child like him bear such strength? He clutched his stomach and slept on the ground in pain. Xue Da was still unsatisfied. He usually didn't like this kid, he couldn't do anything but be naughty and actually dared to bite him today. He lifted his foot and kicked again.

A-Jiao scrambled over. She hugged Xue Da's leg to stop him, but her strength was too small and her body was too weak. He kicked her away.

Seeing that her little brother was still being viciously beaten up, she could only rush over and lie on his body to protect him. When he saw this, Eldest Xue got even angrier. He lifted his leg and gave her a few vicious kicks, kicking her already frail body.

Ah Sheng was so frightened that he started to cry. Seeing that he was crying so loudly, Xue Da was afraid of alarming his master. He shouted and panted harder for the both of them.

Who knew how many times she was kicked to the ground by Xue Da, but she couldn't feel any pain at all. She only had one thought, and that was to never let this hateful man injure her little brother.

At this moment, a group of people walked over from not too far away. It turned out that the general had returned home. Seeing the chaos, the leader of the soldiers asked loudly, "Who is causing trouble here? I wonder if the general will return home at this time? "

Xue Cheng took a closer look and saw that it was that woman, Lian Jiao, again. At this moment, she was tightly hugging a young boy. Her entire body was stained with footprints, making her look extremely miserable.

"What is all this fuss about!" He opened his mouth to ask Xue Da, but turned to look at A-Jiao.

"General, didn't you order this lowly slave to kneel for a day and a night? But this brat actually secretly sent water and food to his sister, and was discovered by me. This servant is currently teaching him a lesson, I don't want to alarm the general! " Shay quickly explained.

"Dog slave, did this general order you to beat someone?" he growled.

Xue Da was so frightened that he kneeled on the ground. "General, please forgive me!" "This servant acted in a hurry!"

Xue Cheng Kai paid no attention to him, instead, he walked in front of her and looked at her condescendingly with cold eyes. "Do you still only want to be a slave now? You see, anyone in this house can treat you maliciously! "

A-Jiao didn't answer his question. Instead, she begged, "Please spare my younger brother, Ah Sheng. He's just a ten-year-old child. He doesn't understand anything. He only disobeys your orders when he sees that I'm suffering."

At this time, she finally opened her mouth to beg him, and it was actually for someone else. Didn't she know she was in a worse situation? He was still delusional about his ability to save others. Did she really think she was the savior?

"According to the Xue Residence's rules, what punishment is there for disobeying Master's orders?" He purposely asked the soldiers behind him.

"General, 50 staff punishment, 2 days fasting!"

No! She definitely could not allow her brother to be punished like this. She was taking his life!

"General!" Please forgive Ah Sheng. If you want to punish me, then punish me. She was only left with half her life. If she could exchange her life for Ah Sheng's, it would be worth it!

"I say, can you not make yourself so selfless and noble? Who do you think you are? You are just a lowly slave, what ability do you have to save others! You can't even protect your own little life! " He laughed at her.

"General, this servant only wants to protect his loved ones, even if I have to put in the last bit of my strength!" she persisted.
