She didn’t know how long he had been standing there, but at this mont, she only knew that all kinds of embarrassnts rushed at her, almost knocking her down, nearly making her collapse.
In the next second, she realized sothing, adjusted her body angle to hide her disheveled look.
Jiang Yixiu hadn’t expected that after only a few days of not seeing her, she was almost unfamiliar to the point he couldn’t recognize her. The hair that used to be black and shiny was now tied up carelessly, looking a bit greasy, and her smooth skin had turned dull, her lips chapped from dryness.
The hands attempting to hide in the sleeves also appeared rough, completely losing their slender, elegant appearance, becoming thick and red.
The once stunning beauty vanished before his eyes in an instant, leaving only this skeleton-like visage.
Mu Qingxin felt uneasy being stared at, seeing the man remain still, she said, "Mr. Jiang, I need to go out and work, please let through."
His tall, large fra blocked the door, preventing her from leaving.
The two maids heard the commotion, startled enough to imdiately drop the food in their hands, stumbling to the doorway, indeed seeing the man standing there with a sullen expression.
"Mr. Jiang—"
"Mr. Jiang—"
They called out in unison, speaking respectfully.
Yet at the sa ti, their hearts were pounding. Why would soone so noble co to a servant room?
They had heard rumors before saying Mu Qingxin had a close relationship with the master’s family, but they hadn’t taken it seriously. Was this situation proving it true?
But it didn’t seem like it. If their relationship were close, why was there no trace of joy in the master’s eyes, only anger and coldness?
The atmosphere beca strangely tense, even the two servants could clearly feel it.
Jiang Yixiu had been restraining himself, controlling the urge to directly pull her out of this dark, miserable servant room. Soone like her shouldn’t be here, truly shouldn’t.
But recalling everything she had done, he wished for her to live in such a place forever, never seeing daylight again in her life.
Yet ultimately, he couldn’t suppress that montary impulse, he went over and grabbed her hand, forcing her to go with him.
Taking advantage of her poor health and lack of strength, he effortlessly took her to the master bedroom, his room.
Mu Qingxin instantly panicked, wanting to rush out the door as soon as she entered.
The man had long anticipated her moves, blocking the door with one hand, looking down at her, issuing a threat, "Cooperate a bit, or the suffering will only increase."
"I’m not afraid of suffering!" Mu Qingxin’s heart ached, at least pain made her feel alive, otherwise, it was truly a fate worse than death.
Jiang Yixiu saw the familiar stubborn expression in her eyes, suddenly grasped her shoulders, "Do you want to suffer?"
Mu Qingxin felt a violent aura emanating from him, suddenly her back felt cold, instinctively resisting, "What, what are you trying to do?"
"Ah—"
In the next second, the man hoisted her onto his shoulder, scaring her into crying out.
Mu Qingxin felt only panic, unease, fear, continually hamring at the man, but she was too weak now, her blows felt like tickles.
"Let go, Jiang Yixiu, what exactly do you want!"
"Jiang Yixiu?" The man sneered, "Now you rember to call my full na? Before it was either Mr. Jiang or Doctor Jiang... Mu Qingxin, I thought you had already forgotten who I am!"
The man was never one to show tenderness. Even when their relationship was good, he wasn’t particularly gentle, so now he definitely wouldn’t be—
Reaching the bed, he directly threw the woman onto it, following closely above her.
Mu Qingxin’s hands and feet were restrained by the man, leaving her only able to glare at him desperately, with no other options.
