Since she had been discovered, she stopped hiding and walked straight into the house through the main gate. As she had expected, Mother Xie was standing inside, looking as if she had been waiting for a long time. As soon as she saw her come in, Mother Xie frowned and questioned her with a dark face, "Miss, why aren't you resting in your room? Where have you been? Where are you coming back from?"
Liu Yushu ignored her and went straight to the couch to rest. "I'm tired. Mu Chan, show Mother Xie out."
"Yes," Mu Chan obediently complied.
"Miss, if you don't explain clearly today, this old servant won't be at ease," Mother Xie pushed Mu Chan aside and rushed towards Liu Yushu in one stride. Startled, Liu Yushu quickly stepped back to dodge Mother Xie's outstretched hand. Seeing this, Mother Xie's face changed. She seemed to be shocked by Liu Yushu's reaction, never expecting her to dodge so quickly.
"You old hag, I've disliked you for a long time," Liu Yushu quickly took out the scissors she had hidden under the pillow early on. She stabbed the sharp end hard into Mother Xie's shoulder, then pulled it out. The scissors, now stained with blood, quickly stabbed into Mother Xie's other shoulder.
Mother Xie was seriously injured by the stabs and collapsed on the ground, crying out in pain, "You, you..." She didn't know what to say for a moment. Looking up at Liu Yushu, she had already got off the couch, holding the scissors in her hand, glaring at her with a frosty face. Her eyes were as fierce as a wild beast's, as if she would skin and dismember her the next second.
"Miss, you shouldn't touch such things. It's not fitting for your status. Please put down the scissors quickly," Mother Xie knew she couldn't escape, so she started to change the subject and defend herself.
Mu Chan saw that Mother Xie kept looking towards the door, and understood that she had accomplices outside. She quickly closed the door, then looked at Liu Yushu and said, "Miss, we have to get rid of this old hag quickly. She has arranged others in the mansion."
Liu Yushu curled her lips and sneered. Looking down at Mother Xie, she said, "When did you start colluding with the Prince Yu's Mansion? I can't believe that Granny trusted you so much and took you with her. I never thought you were actually the Prince Yu's person. Is there any connection between my Granny's death and the Prince Yu?"
Since she found out that Mother Xie was sent by Dugu Fuya, she started to recall the previous events and found many things very strange. Although her Granny was old, her health had always been good. Even after suffering the family's misfortune and the loss of her son, she shouldn't have been completely devastated all at once. After all, her Granny was the daughter of a military general and had experienced many ups and downs in her life. She shouldn't have died suddenly.
Her Granny's death had hit Liu Yushu hard. It hurt her more than if she herself had been killed.
Mother Xie averted her gaze and refused to speak.
Liu Yushu waved her hand at Mu Chan and scoffed, "It seems we have to use some tough measures on Mother Xie."
Mu Chan replied, "Just as you say, Miss." Then she went to the dressing table drawer and took out two incense sticks. She bent down in front of Mother Xie. Mother Xie watched helplessly as Mu Chan lit the two - finger - thick incense sticks, with sparks flickering on the tips.
Mu Chan smiled sinisterly and said, "Mother Xie, these incense sticks are the treasures you brought from the Prince Yu's Mansion. They are the rewards the Prince Yu bestowed upon you. You should enjoy them well so as not to let down His Highness the Prince Yu."
"What do you want to do? I'm the Prince Yu's person. If you dare to touch me, the Prince Yu won't let you go," Mother Xie could only bring up Dugu Fuya. Looking at Liu Yushu, she said, "Miss, since you already know everything, why do you have to make things difficult for this old servant?"
"What I want is my own business. As for you, I want you to tell me personally how the Prince Yu made you do dirty things beside me!" Liu Yushu coldly interrogated. To prevent Mother Xie from running away, she didn't even blink as she used the scissors to cut Mother Xie's hamstrings.
Mother Xie let out a shrill scream and fainted from the pain. Mu Chan woke her up by burning her with the incense. Mu Chan's hands were like pincers as she firmly pinched Mother Xie's mouth and interrogated her, "If you don't confess honestly, I'll send you to hell."
Mother Xie still refused to speak. Seeing Mother Xie tightly closing her mouth with a pained expression, Liu Yushu quickly reminded Mu Chan, "Don't let her bite her tongue and kill herself."
Mu Chan took off her shoe and stuffed it into Mother Xie's mouth, preventing her from committing suicide. But Mother Xie's tongue root was already bitten through, and blood kept flowing from her mouth. Her expression was hideous, and the scene was extremely terrifying.
However, Liu Yushu wasn't scared at all. Mu Chan moved a chair over, and Liu Yushu sat on it high - and - mighty. She raised her voice and interrogated Mother Xie, "Now I'll ask you some questions. You just need to nod or shake your head. Otherwise, you know the consequences." Glancing at Mu Chan, Mu Chan walked over, stripped Mother Xie's clothes, and brought the burning incense close to Mother Xie's private parts. Mother Xie shrank her neck in fear and immediately nodded repeatedly.
Mother Xie was really scared. She would rather Liu Yushu kill her with a single knife than be tortured in that place. She knew that if that place was tortured, it would be truly worse than death.
This was the first time Mother Xie saw such a Liu Yushu. She seemed like a reincarnated evil spirit, cruel, ruthless, and blood - thirsty. In her impression, she always thought Liu Yushu was a weak and timid little rabbit. Without the protection of others, Liu Yushu would have died long ago. But today she finally understood that Liu Yushu was not a rabbit at all. Her weakness was real, and her timidity was also real. But when facing the enemy, Liu Yushu's heart was colder than the King of Hell's.
Liu Yushu asked, "Is my Granny's death related to the Prince Yu?"
