Chapter 24: Lies

Mo Ran's charming eyebrows moved.

She made it a nonchalant statement, as if the person in front of her was not a single person. She wanted to leave an ugly scar on Cen Xia's body that could never be erased.

"Yes, Miss Mo."

Aunt Zhang trotted into the house.

She had a face full of flesh and came over with a cup of steaming hot water.

The voice was full of surprise. "Miss, I just took it off the stove. Look, it's hot."

Rong Zhengqing put the dog in the backyard and hurried back. He broke out in a cold sweat when he heard their conversation.

"Miss Mo, if you hurt someone, it will be difficult to explain later." The young master's attitude towards Miss Cen was ambiguous. If she really made an irreparable mistake, he would not be able to escape responsibility, so he tried his best to dissuade her.

"Aunt Zhang, go add some cold water."

She only said this. If anything goes wrong, it will be the servant who tries to please her and she can't be blamed.

Rong Zhengqing didn't want to waste any more time talking to this kind of woman, so he turned around and told Chi Jinyan everything without missing a word.

Mo Ran didn't know that what he had done had already angered him.

With a "whoosh" sound.

Cen Xia was woken up by the scalding.

The clothes on my chest were wet and steaming.

The splashing water hit my face and it turned slightly red instantly.

She looked up at the two women who were grinning from ear to ear.

The burning pain in her chest let her guess what had happened.

The parts of my body that were hit hurt even more.

She was so aloof that she still refused to show any signs of pleading or pity.

"Cen Xia, aren't you full of passion to fight me? I'm afraid you'll get cold, so I'll add some heat to you. Look at how embarrassed you are. Aunt Zhang, look at her. If she gets blistered, press them down one by one."

She was very proud of Zhang Ma's masterpiece. The servant was not stupid enough and did not confront her.

"Yes, Miss Mo."

Aunt Zhang told them to let go of Cen Xia and was about to go forward. Butler Rong deliberately waited for them to take action before bringing Chi Jinyan's order. After hearing this, they left in disappointment.

After the person left, Cen Xia stood up and straightened his clothes. There were indeed no obvious burns.

It's the underwear that blocks most of the heat.

But it seemed that there was a lot of water in the armpit area, and it was painful.

She went into the bathroom and carefully took off her clothes.

Sure enough, there was a big blister there.

There is no burn medicine here.

She rinsed herself with cold water for a long time. There were no scars on her body, but it hurt a lot.

What other tricks have I not tried?

Smiling helplessly, "She and Chi Jinyan are really a perfect match, equally crazy."

When they walked out of the room, it was surprisingly quiet. Cen Xia didn't have the time to think about why Chi Jinyan called them away.

Another hot and busy day has come to an end in the evening.

Cen Xia dragged her tired body to prepare dinner for Chi Jinyan.

She looked at the knife on the table and picked it up slowly.

I fantasized about using this knife to take revenge and held it tightly in my hand.

But he didn't notice the person coming behind him.

"Cen Xia, what do you want to do?"

The knife in his hand was snatched away in an instant.

She looked at her empty hands and didn't even feel Chi Jinyan around.

While I was still in a daze, I was pulled out of the kitchen.

"Cen Xia, have you forgotten what I warned you again? If you want to die, stay away."

Cen Xia looked up at Chi Jinyan. He seemed a little impatient. She wondered why he came back so early today.

"Master Chi, I didn't mean to upset you, I was just, just thinking about something."

He grabbed her wrist and asked her , " What are you thinking about? Are you thinking about going to accompany Fan Yiming as soon as possible?"

Cen Xia was a little surprised and said subconsciously , " Yes, I was thinking about him. Isn't it okay to reminisce about an old friend?"

"Cen Xia, a dead person can make you miss him for so many years. If you like him so much, why do you have to marry me?"

"Who are you showing your affection to?"

Chi Jinyan pinched her shoulders fiercely and said, "Tell me, why did you want to marry me?"

" ... "

Cen Xia couldn't answer him.

"Cen Xia, I don't believe the lies you told my grandma."

He didn't know why he thought of asking this.

"Master Chi, I didn't lie, I ... "

Cen Xia didn't know how to continue her story. She looked at Chi Jinyan and it seemed that he would not give up until he got an answer.

"I have nothing to do with that person. I fell in love with Master Chi at first sight, so I married you regardless of everything ... "

Cen Xia closed her eyes. She couldn't open her eyes and tell lies.

Chi Jinyan's grip on her hand kept tightening, causing her pain.

She knew there was no way this person would believe it so easily.

"Master Chi, whether you believe it or not, there is no need for me to lie to you. Besides, it was just my wishful thinking. I really didn't know that Master Chi already had someone he liked at that time."

Cen Xia knew that if she mentioned Gu Xia and Chi Jinyan at this time, attention would definitely be diverted.

Sure enough, his voice wasn't as impatient as before.

The cold voice was close to her eardrums.

"Cen Xia, did you cruelly kill an innocent person just because of your wishful thinking?"

His eyes gradually became gloomy, and he had to touch his sore spot.

"I have already agreed to marry you, why did you still do that to Xiao Xia, why?"

"Master Chi, I didn't do it. Believe it or not, I never hurt her. The only thing that my Cen family owes you is that I didn't let you see her for the last time on the wedding day."

Cen Xia does things openly and honestly. If he hasn't done it, then he hasn't done it.

"Cen Xia, do you think I would believe you? Your boyfriend just died and you couldn't wait to get married. Do you think a vicious woman like you can have any feelings?"

"Chi Jinyan, he is not my boyfriend. It doesn't matter whether you believe it or not. If you think I am guilty, I will admit it. I have endured whatever you want. My brother is dead, and the Cen family is gone. If you think it is not enough, then I will continue to atone until you are satisfied."

Chi Jinyan, who was almost shaken, was stimulated by her words.

"Cen Xia, even if your whole family was buried with Xiao Xia, it would still not be enough. What else can you repay except your own life?"

He threw it casually and Cen Xia fell to the ground.

"Master Chi, my miserable life is not enough to repay Master Chi's love. It was me who broke you up. I am guilty. If you don't believe me, I will accept whatever you want to do to me."

Her soft voice was filled with guilt, not stubbornness, but it made Chi Jinyan inexplicably annoyed.

"Cen Xia, from now on you can only kneel in this room. You are not allowed to stand up."

"Master Chi." Cen Xia hurriedly grabbed his trouser leg.

It was rare that he did not stop her. "Master Chi, can we discuss it?" She said in a very low voice and closed her eyes. She still needed to pray to this man in order to escape.

"Why do you do that?"

"Cen Xia, what do you have to discuss this with me?"

Cen Xia was choked and speechless, and slowly lowered his arms.

Chi Jinyan ignored her and asked, "Mo Ran has been here?" That was why he came back as soon as possible to check whether the person was dead or not.

Cen Xia nodded and pinched her arm with a painful expression.

I don't know why he would ask.

They are lovers and it has nothing to do with me and I don't care.

Chi Jinyan was actually a little disappointed. He mentioned that the woman in front of Mo Ran didn't feel jealous at all. He glanced at the pale and skinny Cen Xia, suppressed his displeasure and said coldly , " There's a welcome party tomorrow, so I'll let you go today."

"Thank you, Master Chi."

As soon as the person left, Cen Xia immediately stood up, and she was already feeling like cutting Chi Jinyan into pieces in her heart.

She would never sincerely thank this person.

There was a moment when she really wanted Chi Jinyan's life ...

Unexpectedly, Chi Jinyan asked her to rest early today, but she had trouble falling asleep.

The blisters and wounds on my body were so painful that I dared not move.

Chi Jinyan is watching this place very closely.

I have tried everything to escape from here over the years but I can't.

She thought about her parents and brother.

I haven't seen my parents for more than three years and haven't even been able to say a few words to them.

With the current strength of the Cen family, it is impossible to help her escape from the cage, and we can't let the Cen family get into trouble again ...
