Chapter 2438 Underestimating the Queen

"One level, one level!" she shouted, slapping the wall, "What did you do to him? Talk!"

However, the only answer she received was continuous screams.

It was a real scream.

The pain reaches the depths of the soul, the kind of pain that the body can no longer bear.

This torture lasted for more than an hour.

It started out as a high-pitched scream, then became hoarse until there was no sound left, only heavy breathing and a roaring sound in the throat.

Zhuang Yunshu could not imagine what kind of torture Lu Yiping, separated by a wall, was suffering.

That cold and ugly Chen Xiaosan really took pleasure in torturing people.

He can make people feel more painful than death, but cannot die at all.

That kind of feeling that life is worse than death, that there is no life, no death, and the will of an ordinary person will completely collapse within three times.

Zhuang Yunshu hugged his head and huddled in the corner, covering his ears desperately, but he still couldn't escape the screams that kept coming into his ears.

After the execution, Chen Xiaosan left quietly like a shadow.

Before leaving, he changed Lu Yiping's cell and threw him opposite Zhuang Yunshu's cell.

There is only a narrow path in the middle, and the iron gate faces the door, so you can easily see each other.

Lu Yi lay flat on the ground, motionless, like a puddle of mud.

Zhuang Yunshu knelt at the door, stretched out his hand outside the iron door, and cried, "Yiping, are you okay?"

There was no movement for a long time.

Just when Zhuang Yunshu almost thought he was dead, he moved, turned over with difficulty, faced the roof of the cell, exhaled a long breath, and said in a hoarse voice: "There is nothing worse than this."

These words made Zhuang Yunshu burst into tears.

She cried and said, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry...it's all me who has caused you trouble."

"Stop talking nonsense." Lu Yiping closed his eyes and waited for a long time before continuing, "Do you think the emperor and empress would let the Lu family go without you?"

"What do you mean?"

"The Lu family is too eye-catching. The imperial court took over the Northern Qi Dynasty, but has never been free to deal with all the forces in the Northern Qi Dynasty. The Lu family is also too rich. To the money-starved Zhou Dynasty court, they are no more than a piece of fat hanging above their heads. . Whether you eat or not just depends on your mood."

Zhuang Yunshu was stunned for a moment and said in a daze: "So, you support me in opening Guanglong Company because you have long expected that such a day would come, and you are just taking advantage of me?"

Lu Yiping rested for a while and said hoarsely: "I never wanted to use you. It's just... you said you wanted revenge. Our goals overlap in some aspects. Helping you is also helping myself."

Zhuang Yunshu showed a wry smile and grasped the iron bars of the cell door with both hands, not knowing what to say.

In essence, the relationship between them is still mutual use.

There is no other emotional component.

However, looking at the man who was usually gentle, handsome, and capable of making waves, he was lying in the cell like a mangy dog. Zhuang Yunshu still couldn't calm down.

She lowered her eyes and whispered: "But you still risked your life for me after all. No matter what your purpose was, you did this for me, and I am grateful to you. Now I have nothing in this world." Someone who cares. You... don't have to do this for me."

"I just look at you, feel you are pitiful, and pity you. As for me being caught here, I can't blame anyone else. I only blame myself for being too conceited and underestimating the queen."
