Her gaze fell on the huddled figure in the corner. It was Jiang Yue, covered in blood, curled up into a ball. She was filthy and it was obvious at a glance what kind of violent assault she had just endured.
Yan Xia never expected that the crime scene she had always thought was far away from her was actually just upstairs...
Seeing this scene, Yan Xia couldn't help but tremble all over. This feeling of fear was like drowning, with not even a last straw to hold on to. She turned around warily and looked at the two people behind her, but they didn't make any further moves. They just tidied up the scene and left.
After the two people left and she was sure it was safe, Yan Xia took off her clothes and gasped as she covered Jiang Yue with her shirt. She herself was left with only a camisole. Perhaps because her skin suddenly touched something warm, Jiang Yue flinched and looked at her in horror.
"It's okay. Those people are gone..." Besides this, Yan Xia didn't know what else to say to comfort her.
When Jiang Yue saw that the person in front of her was Cheng Yan Xia, her scattered gaze suddenly focused. With overwhelming hatred, she grabbed Yan Xia's arm and bit it hard, as if she wanted to bite off a piece of the flesh on it.
Yan Xia gasped in pain, but considering what Jiang Yue had just gone through, she didn't argue with her. She just let her bite her arm to vent, thinking of it as being bitten by a dog.
She even managed to take out her phone with one hand. There was finally a signal in this location. Fang Jiang Yi had indeed received the text message and had sent her several messages and made several calls.
He said he was on his way and asked if she was safe.
Yan Xia pressed the recording button with one hand and replied to him, "I'm fine. Come directly to the top floor. I'm on the rooftop."
Jiang Yue bit her arm hard for a long time until it bled. The blood dripped down her chin onto the ground. The bloody taste in her mouth seemed to stimulate her. Suddenly, she went limp all over and hugged Yan Xia's arm, sobbing painfully, like a wolf's suppressed howl.
"Why... Why did you do this to me..." She gasped for breath between sobs and her voice was hoarse. "Cheng Yan Xia... Your daughter was harmed, so you want to take revenge on me? It has nothing to do with me at all. Why did you do this to me!"
"I didn't do this. I wouldn't let anyone do such a thing to you. I was also tricked. Someone asked me to come here. I didn't know this was related to you at all..."
"You did it!" Jiang Yue was extremely emotional. Suddenly, she slapped Yan Xia across the face, sending her falling to the ground. "Cheng Yan Xia, you're a bitch. You're just like your shameless father. None of you are good people. You've ruined me. I won't let you get away with it!"
As if finding a bit of comfort in her own words, her crazy emotions calmed down a bit, but all her hatred was focused on Yan Xia. She growled between gritted teeth.
"I won't let you get away with it. One day, I'll kill you with my own hands. I must kill you!"
Jiang Yue was in a disheveled state, covered in blood, with messy hair. Her crazy appearance made her look like a madwoman.
The slap was very hard, and half of Yan Xia's face was burning with pain. It seemed to be swelling up.
She had no intention of arguing with her. "Jiang Yue, can you use your brain and think? If I really arranged this, why would I still show up in front of you?"
Jiang Yue clenched her fists so tightly that they made cracking sounds. As she struggled, the shirt Yan Xia had draped over her fell off, and she was almost naked in front of Yan Xia, with bloody scratches all over her body.
Jiang Yue bit her lips until they bled. "Aren't you just here to show off to me? Since you've already left, why did you come back? Why did you come back! I'm the only one who should be by Qian Zhou's side. You and your family owe me and him this lifetime. You'll never be able to pay it off!"
"Do you dare to say that you had nothing to do with Meng Fan's incident?" Yan Xia questioned her sharply. "I couldn't figure out before why Peng Shiyi was so impatient and suddenly attacked me. It was you who encouraged her, right? You wanted to get rid of me through her and reap the benefits for yourself."
As if suddenly realizing this cruel truth, she gasped heavily as she looked at her, with red - rimmed eyes.
Seeing her heart - broken look, Jiang Yue suddenly let out a low laugh.
At this moment, she didn't care what was true or false, nor did she care about the consequences of admitting it. As long as she could stimulate Cheng Yan Xia and make her suffer as much as she did, she would be very satisfied!
So she laughed unrestrainedly and crazily, and said with a suffocating hatred, "Yes, it was me. I had someone kidnap her and let those men entertain her well. I also had someone record a video and broadcast it live! Do you know how she struggled desperately? She kept crying and calling for her mother, and then there was no sound at all."
"Do you know how satisfying that was? Actually, she didn't do anything wrong. Her only mistake was that she had you as her mother! So she had to die! I'll do anything that can make you suffer! Don't worry, those men are very experienced and have good skills. They served her very well. If there had been enough time, they could have surely trained her from being stubborn at first to being a promiscuous woman! It's a pity. If it had been you who was caught that time, if it had been you who had gone through all that, I would have been even more satisfied and thrilled!"
Jiang Yue seemed to be crazy. She fantasized about that cruel scene and described things she had never done, just to make Cheng Yan Xia as miserable as she was, as if life was not worth living.
Yan Xia trembled even more violently. She bit her own tongue, and the bloody taste in her mouth lingered. She followed Jiang Yue's description and fantasized about that scene, forcing herself into extreme pain. All the blood vessels in her body seemed to be bursting in pain.
Suddenly, she slapped Jiang Yue back, pushed her to the ground, and then pressed her body down with her leg and tightly grabbed her neck.
"Yes, my father is unforgivable. I'm shameless, cruel - hearted, and go back on my word! You can label me however you want, and I'll admit it. But tell me, what did Meng Fan do wrong? What did she do wrong?"
Her teeth were chattering. It was hard to tell whether the liquid on her face was sweat or tears. The force in her hands was so strong that Jiang Yue couldn't breathe. Her face was flushed red, and Yan Xia was squeezing harder and harder.
"She was just an eight - year - old child. What on earth did you do to her?!" Yan Xia's hot tears kept falling on Jiang Yue's body. "Give her back to me. Give her back to me!"
Jiang Yue desperately tried to grab Yan Xia's hands to make her let go. For a moment, she really thought she was going to be choked to death.
However, at the last moment, Yan Xia's hands loosened.
Jiang Yue covered her neck and coughed desperately, gasping for air. After surviving the ordeal, her heart was pounding uncontrollably in her chest.
