Chapter 6: The Scar Behind / Drunken Mad Devil

  Standing outside, the wind's several maidservants heard the screams inside, which didn't sound like the young lady's, but rather... Several people rushed in hastily, and the scene before their eyes left them agape with shock.

  In the broken courtyard, Second Miss and Cousin Miss were rolling on the ground with blood all over their faces. Second Miss was drenched from head to toe, her clothes covered in mud, her hair disheveled, and her hairpins scattered all over the place. A deep gash marred her left cheek, while Cousin Miss was wailing in pain, both of them crying and sniffling uncontrollably, looking no different from a madwoman on the street, without a shred of dignity befitting young ladies.

  Every time the second and third young ladies come to the eldest young lady's courtyard, they always beat her half to death before leaving. How is it that today she herself ended up at a disadvantage?

  "What are you staring at, idiot! Don't just stand there, come and help me back!" Mu Ziyu covered her face with one hand and scolded the maid fiercely. She was in so much pain, oh heaven, her face... this whip lash would surely disfigure her. She must tell her parents about this, beat this worthless servant to death!

  A hint of resentment flashed in the maid's eyes, and it had come to this. The second young lady and the cousin were not good people either, they treated the eldest young lady like this, let alone these maidservants, hitting or scolding them whenever they wanted, always finding fault and picking on them.

  Why doesn't Big Sister hit a few more times?! It would be better if she beat him to death!

  "You haven't come yet, wait till I'm done with you! Ahh...!" Mu Ziyu scolded loudly, completely unaware of the maid's thoughts.

  The more she scolded the maids, the more resentful they became. When helping her up, they didn't put their hearts into it either. One of the maids lifted Mei Zi Ru into mid-air and suddenly let go, hastily calling out: "Second Miss, sorry, you're too heavy, I didn't hold well for a moment, let me try again..."

  Fell to the ground and bumped into the wound, Mu Zi was in so much pain that she couldn't even open her mouth, her head spinning with dizziness.

  Another maid saw this and immediately followed suit, she had also been bullied by Qin Yurong and had her silver deducted, now that she had the chance to take revenge, why wait? She too let go of her hands and shouted in a fluster: "Miss, miss, I'm so sorry..."

  Qin Rongrong originally had a clear song, one whip lashed out, and her internal organs were injured. At this time, she fell from mid-air again, and suddenly her five internal organs wanted to vomit out. As soon as her mouth opened, her lips cracked open in pain, and fresh blood spurted out. This painful sound could only be stifled, almost suffocating her to death. Tears of grievance flowed out, and the several maidservants looked at her with excitement hidden in their eyes.

  She now knows pain, when she used to bully her younger sister, she never thought that others would feel pain too! This kind of person is selfish, it's good that they're suffering!

  "Get out, quickly!" Qing Ge Sen's cold and stern eyes swept across the courtyard, causing several maids to feel a chill run down their spines. They hastily helped up Mu Zi Ru and Qin Rong Rong and ran out, even bumping the two women against the door frame several times as they exited.

  Her eyes turned cold, and she let out a chilly hum. She had clearly seen the maid's small movements just now. It seemed that Mu Ziyu and Qin Rongrong usually bullied not only Mu Qingge but also others, otherwise they wouldn't have been retaliated against at this opportunity.

  What kind of master raises what kind of servant? Seeing the master in trouble, not a single person helps, and instead kicks him when he's down! These two are really failures as human beings!

  She tossed the long whip in her hand and walked back to the room with a water bucket, filling up the entire bathtub. After going out for a day, she had exercised and been stabbed, and her whole body was dirty. She wasn't a cleanliness freak, but she also liked to be clean. Moreover, there were bloodstains on her body. Just now, when it got dark, those two women didn't notice with their smug faces. If someone else discovered this bloody outfit, it wouldn't be good!

  She took a glance at the boy who followed her in, and carelessly pulled open the black cloth strip that tied up her hair, took off her clothes, and stepped into the bathtub.

  A six-year-old boy, she doesn't have to mind him.

  The young man washed his face seriously, looking extremely serious and enjoying it, but his body didn't relax at all. This boy was too strange, although he hadn't made any moves now, and the cooperation in the forest was very tacit, but also made people's hearts unable to completely let go. Maintaining absolute vigilance, preventing all possible accidents, this is what any excellent mercenary and killer should do.

  Mercenary...

  Gently closing my eyes, wiping my body with my hands, my thoughts gradually floated up. In one body, memories of two eras, what a magical thing, yet I had to experience it myself to know how helpless it is.

  A scene flashed through his mind, from the best killer to being unwilling to be controlled by the organization, leaving and establishing the "K" mercenary group, and overthrowing the killer organization...

  And now she has become a noble lady of an unknown era, a good-for-nothing that everyone knows.

  All of this, like a distant dream, so real, yet so illusory.

  Qing Ge's eyes had a faint mist, the boy behind her suddenly felt a surge of anger in his heart. This woman, how could she take a bath in front of others?! It was really too... too...

  A gaze full of anger swept across the girl's clean back, and suddenly, her black hair was wet and stuck to her snow-white back. The fresh scent of a woman wafted through the air, but what should have been a flirtatious atmosphere was completely ruined by the deep scars and purple-black bruises that covered her back.

  The boy's eyes, originally filled with anger, had a hint of surprise. These large patches of black bruises and scars were clearly left behind by prolonged beatings, with internal injuries visible from the outside.

  A dark pupil with a faint blue light flashed by, accompanied by a misty and uncertain sparkle. Is this the reason why she secretly went out to exercise, secretly climbed over the wall without letting anyone know?

  Judging from these marks, the person who did it didn't show any mercy. Was it those two women who started fighting? Listening to their conversation at the entrance, they were obviously involved.

  No wonder she's so cold and has such a strong guard against people...

  His heart seemed to be shrouded in something, tightly grasped, his delicate eyebrows twisted fiercely, and the words spat out from his tender red lips were filled with determination: "Don't let them bully you again!" The boy threw out a cold sentence, and the air was tinged with a hint of chill.

  Qing Ge had just washed off the bloodstains and dirt, and was stepping out of the water to put on his clothes when he heard these words and was taken aback for a moment. After a brief pause, he reacted, realizing that it must have been the wound on his back that he had seen earlier.

  What does this mean? Don't let people bully her?

  It's strange enough coming from a boy who is less than six years old.

  She turned around, looking at the boy in front of her with a serious expression, although his words were not suitable for the occasion. However, she could tell from his tone that he was concerned about her. Qing Ge replied calmly: "They'd better have the ability to do so!" She was no longer the former Mu Qing Ge, and would not be bullied by them at will.
