373 Liu Yinniang’s Death (Part 2)
Liu Yinniang begged, cried, and shouted so much that she lost her voice, but the person beating her was far from done yet.
He tore open the unhealed wound on her back and pressed against it. He said with an extremely terrifying look, “What’s the use of keeping you? You can’t even do such a small thing.”
Liu Yinniang opened her mouth like a fish lacking oxygen. She wanted to take a deep breath, but she couldn’t seem to breathe.
Pain swept through every nerve in her body.
Liu Shun looked at Liu Yinniang, who was on her last breath, and the ruthlessness in his eyes increased. He married Liu Yinniang just because he wanted to use her to manipulate Liu Sanniang and make her his concubine.
However, nothing that happened in his dream occurred in reality.
Liu Sanniang didn’t remain a spinster. She was engaged to Chu Yan and became a psychic.
All of this made Liu Shun extremely dissatisfied.
It was as if only by venting his anger on Liu Yinniang could he feel better. However, Liu Yinniang was too weak. With just one blow, she was almost dead.
Even though Liu Yinniang looked twisted with pain, Liu Shun still felt that it was not enough. He tore open some of the healed wounds on Liu Yinniang’s back and pressed down on them with his fingers.
Liu Yinniang only let out a hoarse scream before falling silent again.
She did not even have the strength to cry anymore.
It was already dark outside.
From time to time, Liu Yinniang would jerk, but that was because Liu Shun had cut her back with a knife.
She wanted to beg for mercy and ask Liu Shun to stop. If this continued, she would die.
However, Liu Shun seemed to be possessed by a demon. Every time he inflicted a wound on her body, he would use his hand to press it hard. Liu Yinniang was in so much pain that she started to wish to die.
Liu Shun’s eyes became colder and colder, and the pleasure he derived from abusing her grew greater and greater until Liu Yinniang was completely unconscious.
No matter how hard he tried to beat her, there was no response. Only then did he stop.
Liu Yinniang ceased to move.
This time, she did not wake up. The body lay motionless on the bed, covered in blood oozing out of countless wounds.
After a while, Liu Shun held the knife and gently wiped it with his clothes. He was bored that his plaything died so quickly.
In his eyes, Liu Yinniang was just like one of those wild cats. He enjoyed torturing them as if he could only feel relaxed after venting all his anger in this way.
Liu Yinniang was useless. He had given her so much time, but she still couldn’t manage to carry out such a small task. In that case, what was the use of keeping her?
Liu Shun stood up and slowly changed his clothes. The servants weren’t around. They didn’t dare to remain near the courtyard.
This was just what he wanted. He fetched a bucket of kerosene and casually lit up the house.
Almost instantly, fire spread out across the entire house.
Liu Shun slowly walked out of the courtyard. The servants outside the courtyard were trembling. They were all slaves Liu Shun had bought from the human traffickers.
Even though they knew what Liu Shun had done, they did not dare to say anything.
Liu Shun asked coldly. “Is Madam still inside? What are you waiting for? Put out the fire.”
Only then did the servants react and quickly went to grab water to put out the fire.
However, the fire was raging. Even if it was put out, Liu Yinniang would already be burned to ashes.
Liu Shun’s mother was helped out by a servant girl. She asked with a frown. “What’s going on?”
Liu Shun explained casually. “I don’t know what’s going on. A servant must have accidentally knocked over the candle and the fire started.”
Liu Shun’s mother responded equally casually. “Discipline your servants well.”
Liu Shun nodded. “I will.”
The fire was unstoppable, and Liu Yinniang was burnt to ashes inside the house.
Liu Shun smiled with satisfaction. He had already had enough fun. This ending wasn’t too bad.
Liu Yinniang was of no use to him at all, so he naturally did not need to keep her around. Having such a wife would only make him feel embarrassed. He would also never divorce again because he had learnt a lesson in his dream.
He would definitely not allow himself to end up like what happened in his dream. After divorce, he was disdained by people and regarded as a heartless ingrate.
This way, he could save himself a lot of trouble.
The fire was quickly extinguished. Looking at the white bones in the ashes, the servants’ faces turned pale.
Liu Shun looked panicked. “Where’s my wife?”
The servant replied in fear. “Madam, Madam went to look for you in the study.”
Liu Shun immediately hammered his chest and let out a heartbreaking cry. “Yinniang, Yinniang…”
Liu Shun’s mother frowned and raised her hand to wipe the nonexistent tears from the corners of her eyes. She said in a choked voice, “Something happened to Yinniang. Hurry up and inform her family.”
Even if the servants knew the truth, they did not dare to say a word.
Therefore, Liu Yinniang just accidentally fell, knocked over the oil lamp, and burned to ashes.
There was no evidence to suggest otherwise. After the fire burned everything down, there was nothing left.
Liu Shun was valued by the Crown Prince, so there was never a need to worry about having a place to live.
After Liu Shun’s mother gave the order, the servants immediately went to inform Liu Yinniang’s family.
It was late at night.
After Liu Sancai fed Madam Bai the medicine, she was a lot more clear-minded. She looked at Liu San and couldn’t help but feel sad.
Liu San was a little annoyed. “What’s wrong with you? Why can’t you tell me? Why do you have to keep everything to yourself?”
Madam Bai said in a choked voice, “Yinniang… Can you go and see our daughter?”
Liu San frowned. “What’s wrong with Yinniang? Why should I go to see her in the middle of the night?”
Madam Bai cried. “Just go.”
Seeing her like this, Liu San felt a little frustrated. He thought this was meant to be a restless night, so he might as well go and take a look at his daughter.
Madam Bai seemed to have lost her soul. He also felt strange. It was said that mother and daughter were connected. Her intuition might be right.
After Liu San left, he became more and more frustrated. He walked quickly and recalled something that happened last year. At that time, he was drunk and asked Liu Sanniang why she didn’t like Liu Shun.
What did Liu Sanniang say? She said Liu Shun was not a good person and that Liu Yinniang shouldn’t marry him.
At this moment, he recalled some things that he had forgotten long ago. He also remembered that when Liu Sanniang grabbed his hand, he saw something strange.
He saw that after his daughter married Liu Shun, she walked into the darkness with him.
Liu San was so troubled that he did not even see the person coming from opposite him. He bumped into the person.
The servant was about to curse when he looked up and saw Liu San. He immediately said, “Master Liu, I was coming to look for you.”
Liu San helped the servant up. “Why are you looking for me? I was about to go to the Liu Mansion too. You came at the right time. Tell me, how is your madam doing?”
