Chapter 895: Bring the Secret to My Grave

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Xia Ling’s face turned pale. She never thought that Xia Yu was such a psycho.

In her mind, Xia Yu was cruel for having thrown her baby child into the rubbish bin. Who would have thought that Xia Yu would make use of all these murder weapons—poison, daggers, guns... as well as detailed maps on the location of the crime, and disposing of the bodies. She had killed so many people!

These were all human lives!

She held onto the chair for support, hearing herself ask, “You’re sure that Xia Yu was behind this?”

“About eighty percent sure.” Li Lei replied. “I’ve sent someone to do a more detailed investigation, and we are planning to interrogate Xia Yu one more time to try to get her to admit to it herself.”

Xia Ling said, “I want to see her.”

Li Lei anxiously responded, “Xiao Ling... she’s in a horrible state right now.” Her fingers were corroded by acid, and her toenails had been pried off. There were needle piercings in every sensitive area on her body and broken bones in many parts of her legs such that she couldn’t stand by herself. Xia Yu now reeked of decomposing meat, with maggots growing in various parts of her body. How could he allow Xiao Ling to see this horrendous scene?

Xia Ling insisted. “I’m not so weak.”

Li Lei couldn’t stop her, so he accompanied her into the dungeon to see Xia Yu.

In the dungeon, Xia Yu was still being hung by her wrists, and her clothes were in tatters from all the torture that she had been through. Her head hung forward and her eyes were closed, with houseflies and bugs flying around her body like it was a piece of dead meat. All kinds of whips, hooks, needles, and other torture tools hung on the four walls around Xia Yu, most spotted with blood and starting to smell.

Xia Ling covered her nose.

Li Lei said, “If you can’t take the smell, we can go out now. You don’t have to be here.”

Xia Ling shook her head. “I want to ask her something personally.”

Li Lei gave a signal and his subordinate waiting by the side poured a basin of cold water on Xia Yu’s head. Xia Ling groaned in pain as she woke up. It took some time for her eyes to regain focus. Seeing Xia Ling in the room, Xia Yu lips turned up into a jeering smile. “Oh... so the Madam has decided to grace me with her presence now? Are you happy to see me like this?”

Xia Ling said, “We found a lot of murder evidence in your house.”

Xia Yu was taken aback momentarily, before continuing in a nonchalant tone. “And so? Since I’m here right now, I’ve never thought of leaving this place alive... kekeke...” She started to cough intensively, spitting out a mouthful of blood. The flies in the room flew excitedly towards the fresh blood.

Li Lei told Xia Ling, “When we were torturing her, we broke her ribs and it’s hurt her lungs.”

Xia Ling glanced over at Xia Yu. “If you reply to my questions properly, I’ll send you for treatment and to live in a clean place. How about that? You know me... you know I’m a person of my words.”

“Xia Ling... do you know what I hate most about you?” Xia Yu suddenly said as she looked at her with narrowed eyes.

Xia Ling frowned and didn’t respond.

Xia Yu continued, “I hate your arrogant attitude! Like you’re highest than everyone else in the world! Do you know how irritating that is? Do you?! Kekeke...” She started coughing again in her agitation.

Li Lei pulled Xia Ling back so that the blood wouldn’t splatter onto her.

Looking at them, Xia Yu’s expression was relaxed and she smiled. “Oh... how touching... Li Lei... Second Young Master Li... Everyone says that you are such a protective man. I can see that they are right. Unfortunately, why did you choose a broken shoe that has been worn before?!”

“What did you say?!” Xia Ling’s face darkened.

Xia Ling smiled. “Am I wrong? Xia Ling... my wonderful sister... shall I tell your beloved husband everything that happened when you were being imprisoned by Pei Ziheng? How you were naked, having to pander to Pei Ziheng’s will? How you had to kneel like a dog and lick his boots... you....”

Pa!

A loud sound rang out.

Xia Ling slapped her with all her might, her face white, body shivering, and chest heaving with deep breaths. Li Lei rushed forward to hug her, trying to calm her in a gentle voice. “It’s okay, Xiao Ling... It’s okay... Everything has passed. I love you regardless of anything that happened to you before... I love you... always...”

He hugged onto her tightly, his heart clenching at how much she was trembling.

That time of imprisonment was the greatest scar on Xiao Ling’s heart, and she hated for anyone to touch it. Yet, Xia Yu had pulled that wound open in front of everyone in the room. Li Lei knew how much Xia Ling was hurting.

He signaled to the two subordinates, who silently left the room.

Xia Ling was still trembling, and her face was pale.

Xia Yu’s head was turned to one side from the force of Xia Ling’s slap. There was a cut on her lip and the blood trickled to the floor.

It took a while for Xia Yu to regain her senses. “Haha... hahaha...” She coughed and glared at Xia Ling with frenzied eyes. “You can’t take it, right? You don’t want me to continue? You’re afraid of the things that you have done in the past! Xia Ling... you whore! You’re just a f**king whore! Slut! What right do you have to gain all the love from all these men? You don’t deserve it! You should just die in that bungalow! Hahahaha....”

Xia Ling struggled to free herself from Li Lei’s embrace, wanting to slap Xia Yu again.

Xia Yu smiled as she jeered. “Hit me! Just hit me to death! You can’t change anything that happened even if you kill me! Hahahahah... Xia Ling, you dirty b*tch! What right do you have to act all high and might! You have no right! Ah...”

The last word was a scream of pain.

Li Lei was holding the syringe filled with acid. “Have we destroyed all your fingers yet? It’s fine... keep talking... next will be your eyes.”

This time, Xia Yu shut up in fear.

Xia Ling was still pale and could only steady herself with Li Lei’s help. She didn’t want to hear any of the nonsense that Xia Yu was spouting. Hence, she asked directly, “Xia Yu, you know who killed Wang Jingwan. Speak!”

Xia Yu smiled again. “Oh yes... I do know.”

“Who is it?” Li Lei was the one who questioned this time.

Xia Yu stared straight at Xia Ling. “You want to know? I’m not going to tell you... Just kill me... I’ll bring this secret to the grave and let you lose sleep over it for your entire life!”

“Xia Yu, you’re asking for it...” Xia Ling’s expression was ashen.

Xia Yu lowered her head with a snide smile and kept quiet.

Seeing that any more questions were futile, Li Lei helped Xia Ling out of the dungeon and locked the room behind him. He instructed his subordinates outside the door. “Don’t give her any meals and don’t clean her wounds. Torture her three times a day. Keep her just on the brink of death.”

His subordinates nodded. They could tell that the Young Master was furious.
