I'm Waiting for You in Ashes

Voices intertwined in his ears.

"Qing, I'm so scared. Please send her away. "I know that you've been in love with her for many years, and I don't want to make things difficult for you, but I'm really afraid that she'll kidnap and abuse me again …"

First, the woman's pitiful sobs.

After a long period of silence, the man's calm and soothing voice could be heard.

"Don't think too much into it, what kind of relationship can I have with her? I won't let you leave half a step behind in the future. With me here, would she dare to hurt you? "

"Besides, with her tied up like this, she won't be able to get close to you. Don't be afraid."

What are they talking about?

What damage and what was tied up?

Su Wan's chaotic consciousness slowly returned to her mind.

His body was very heavy.

His head hurt.

She raised her hand to rub her temple, but then she heard the crisp sound of iron chains coming from her body.

Su Wan immediately woke up.

When he opened his eyes, everything was dark.

After adjusting his eyes to the light, he realized that he was in a cramped and cramped small room. The room was dirty and messy except for a small skylight above his head. It looked more and more oppressive.

His heart started thumping loudly.

She had claustrophobia since she was a child.

"Young master …"

Su Wan yelled in a hoarse voice, she knew he was outside.

It was quiet outside for a while.

Then, the sound of an iron gate opening.

A soft halo of light shone in, and Huo Qing's tall and big figure stood at the door, stinging her eyes.

Li Meng Qing leaned on Huo Qing's side, fearfully pulling on his sleeve.

"Qing, don't go over …"

Huo Qing comforted Li Mengqing as he patted the back of her hand. He calmly walked in front of Su Wan and looked down at her.

Su Wan struggled to get up from the ground, but due to the four limbs and the iron chain around her neck, she was pulled back and fell in a sorry state.

Huo Qing sneered softly. His gaze was filled with contempt.

"Look at your current appearance, how are you different from a stray dog?"

"Don't you like imprisoning and mistreating others? I'll let you have a taste of being chained. "

His brows were filled with a cold intent.

Originally, he was moved.

She had come back last night, and he had even decided to let the past go.

But when he went to the outskirts of the capital and found Li Mengqing with her wounds, he could no longer control his anger.

What ability did Su Wan have to do this to the woman he had always held in his hands?

Su Wan was stunned.

She immediately looked towards Li Mengqing, who innocently opened a pair of invisible eyes. However, she seemed to be able to feel her gaze, and hid behind Huo Qing in fear.

"Miss Li, I clearly …"

She clearly hadn't abused her, and had even been fed well.

However, even though it was dark, Su Wan still saw Li Mengqing's arm full of injuries with her sharp eyes.

She really didn't do it...

Before Su Wan could finish her sentence, Li Meng Qing seemed to have received a huge shock as she screamed.

"Shut up! You demon, what else do you want? "Take out all of the abuse that Bai Renjin did?!"

Su Wan was speechless.

She had no proof.

As expected, Huo Qing immediately raised his hand towards her with murderous intent.

Pow!

A crisp slap landed on Su Wan's face.

Su Wan was hit so hard that she was forced to turn her head to the side. A trace of blood dripped from her lips.

"Congratulations young master, you've successfully found the one you love."

His expression was somewhat wooden.

Huo Qing looked at her lifeless appearance and raised his palm, but he was unable to continue hitting her.

"You better stay here and reflect on it!"

He ruthlessly threw down those words, picked up Li Mengqing and wanted to leave.

The iron door creaked old and was about to close again.

The heavy darkness was about to cover this place again.

Su Wan was panicking. The image of being confined in the orphanage when she was a child kept flashing through her mind. She thought she could hold on, but she gave in when Huo Qing closed the door.

"Young Master!"

She lost her usual composure and called out to him in a somewhat urgent manner, begging him humbly.

"Don't leave me here... "You saved my life, so please don't leave me here …"

Huo Qing stopped in his tracks and turned his face around with extreme contempt.

"Saved your life? "So, to betray me — is that what you owe me?"

Su Wan Sheng choked.

Betrayal... Did he know?

She had nothing to say, and her appearance only further infuriated Huo Qing.

The tall figure of the man came back to her side, looking at her on the ground with pity and disgust.

"You think you're special? After ten years of raising it, even if it were a dog, I would still save it. But now, with your broken body, you want to take away my three piers? "

"— Dream on."

He spoke slowly, almost popping out of his teeth.

Su Wan looked at him sadly.

She wanted to explain, to tell him that she had not betrayed him in the end.

But not a word came out of his throat.

"Su Wan, you really make me sick to the core."

Huo Qing looked straight into her eyes, his thin lips spitting out the same content as that day's dream talk. Then, he left with large strides.
