Chapter 2
Ah Jiu opened her eyes wide, unwilling to trust the person she admired, and left her lifelong affairs behind to roam the lake with her beautiful elder sister Shao, watching her helplessly crying on the tall Jingxue Tower, humiliated , no place to stay.

She still clearly remembered the gentle words of the past.He said that he likes her tenderness and consideration, her understanding, and her simplicity...

He said that when Yi Ren has long hair, he will marry her with fresh clothes and furious horses on Changjie Street.

Now, her hair reaches her waist with black hair, but she doesn't see the person who made the promise at the beginning fulfill her promise.

"Brother Wan, Brother Wan, what kind of onion do you really think you are! He was just playing with you, and you are so stupid that you have no regrets. No wonder he keeps telling me that you are like a piece of dog skin plaster , I can’t even shake it off, it’s so annoying.”

The eldest lady Ye Shi ruthlessly interrupted Ah Jiu's words, her lips painted with bright red rouge lifted up in disdain.Looking at Ah Jiusha's pale and bloodless face with considerable enjoyment, the blood on his forehead has not completely dried, and he looks extremely depressed.

Ah Jiu's heart was getting colder and colder, as if she was in an ice cellar, and she didn't even feel the temperature at all.

"Stand like a dead man, you idiots! Bind the stones tightly!"

The eldest lady Yeshi yelled angrily, her voice was like a ghost urging death from hell, the servants were so frightened that they quickly raised their hands.

"Ma'am, I beg you - please spare Ah Jiu!"

Hearing her stern voice, Ah Jiu trembled all over, only feeling cold all over.She had just narrowly escaped death, but she was out of the tiger's mouth and into the wolf's den.She didn't want to die, she wanted to ask the young master himself if he really lied to her feelings, if he really just played with her sincerity, and trampled everything she gave to the dust!
She wanted to ask, what was the infatuation with him all these years?
She really doesn't want to die, she still has too many unfulfilled wishes.

Ah Jiu looked at the vicious and charming face in front of her, feeling unspeakable fear in her heart, struggling to get closer to the eldest lady, and begging her for mercy.Her feet were tied with boulders, and the ropes tightly strangled her slender and skinny feet, almost embedded in her flesh.She looked around in panic, begging that someone would come and save her from the clutches.

God didn't seem to hear her begging, except for the laughter in her ears, there was only a terrible haze above her head, which surrounded her heavily.

A gust of wind swept by, and the last thing she saw was Ye Shi's blood-red nails sliding coldly across her face.

"Snapped--"

The slap made Ah Jiu's ears ring, and her eyes stared, and she fell heavily to the ground.Before she got up, she was caught by a servant.

The eldest lady Ye Shi waved her hand, and the maid, Hua Zhu, brought over a stack of light yellow mulberry paper.

"Whoa-"

The eldest lady stretched out her hand to soak the mulberry paper in the wine, and then covered Ah Jiu's small face, which was no bigger than a palm.The mulberry paper was damp and became extremely soft, completely sticking to her face, making it almost impossible for her to breathe.

Ah Jiu struggled desperately, but she could only look at the darkness in front of her eyes, which completely enveloped her layer by layer.When more and more sheets of mulberry paper were covered, a contour like a mask was carved on her face, making her completely suffocated.

In her ears, there was another sentence that was drowned in her ears.

"No one will come to save you. You will die drunk here forever! Who told you that you shouldn't have seen something you shouldn't have seen."

"Puff-"

Seeing that Ah Jiu had made no movement, the Da Furen pushed hard, and her body fell into the bottomless wine pool, sinking quickly towards the bottom.

A young girl was pushed into the wine pool, but the men and women standing aside were all smiling, as if they were watching a show.

The water surface of the wine pool was calm and there were only very slight waves. After a while, the water surface turned into a dead silence.

The eldest lady, Yeshi, saw that there was no movement below, she let out a long sigh of relief, and sneered disdainfully.

"A little concubine, if my wife wants you to live, you will live! If you want you to die, you must die! This is your life, and you can't blame anyone."

Seeing where the corner of his clothes was stained, his brows were furrowed into hemp ropes.This was a new dress that she had bought from the brocade building with a lot of money to attend the hibiscus banquet, and she was really annoyed that this little bitch had soiled it.

"Ma'am, don't get so angry because of a cheap hoof, it's too worthless. Finally, I won't see that grimace again in the future. It's something worth celebrating."

The maid Hua Zhu guessed what the master meant, immediately took out a handkerchief, bent down to wipe off the stain on the corner of her clothes.

Suddenly, she caught a glimpse of a black figure standing straight outside the window, looking like a ghost, staring at them.

She broke out in a cold sweat suddenly, her heart pounded like a drum.

"Wh-who?"

Hua Zhu cried out in horror, startling everyone in the house.Everyone looked over in unison, and walked towards the half-open window.

"Meow--"

There was only a cat meowing, and there was no one outside.

"It should be dazzled!"

Hua Zhu wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, it seemed that he was too suspicious.

Who knows, a pair of eyes behind the flowers outside the house took a deep look into the house.Seeing Ah Jiu being sunk in the wine pool, a look of satisfaction appeared on his face.He was finally able to get rid of this ugly ghost completely, and he was so happy in his heart.

If Ah Jiu saw this person, she would definitely recognize him. He was the beloved whom she was looking forward to, Ye Liwan.

"Hmph, wishing this little marquis would marry you, you'd better just stay in hell and dream! I'm going to tell Man'er the good news, and she'll be delighted to hear it!"

Ye Liwan was overjoyed in his heart, and after a few dodges, he disappeared outside the window.

At this moment, a young girl was lying under the wine pool, with hemp ropes tied around her wrists and a big stone tied to her feet.

However, the girl who was silent in the wine pool suddenly opened her smart and wise eyes.

When Shaoyin regained consciousness, she subconsciously moved her hands and feet, and found that she was bound tightly by the hemp rope.She was very puzzled by this. She remembered that she jumped into a wine pool in the ruins of Mount Jiuhua. At that time, her hands and feet were not bound by ropes.

She didn't know who was trapping herself in such a clumsy way.The instinct to survive made him think of a way to get out first.She groped the dark bottom, but found nothing usable.Only the sharp stones tied under her feet, the uneven edges and corners, let her see the light of hope.

She immediately bent down and broke the hemp rope soaked in water with the sharp edges of the stone.This process did not take long, but she was trapped at the bottom of the water and could not breathe. In a state of extreme hypoxia, she persisted with strong willpower and untied the ropes and stones under her feet.
