602 An Eye for an Eye 2
Miao Yuehua was extremely regretful. She thought that this master-disciple duo was just good at martial arts and were superpower-conceited maniacs.
They would not be so meticulous as to discover the insect powder. They would accidentally touch it when they were counting money, and they would accidentally eat some when they were eating and drinking. They would suffer and beg her in the end. She would use this as a threat and take all the good things in their hands.
Unexpectedly, she had shot herself in the foot. Her evil intentions had harmed her son in the end.
Su Xiaolu smiled and condensed a water ball in her hand.
“So that thing can’t touch water. What will happen if we accidentally eat it? I really want to know. Look, your son is about to die of thirst. I’m such a good person. How can I not give him water?”
The water ball in Su Xiaolu’s hand split into small water droplets. With a flick of her finger, a water droplet flew into Xiao Yi’s mouth.
Xiao Yi immediately swallowed it, but he only felt comfortable for a moment before pleading painfully, “It’s not enough, it’s not enough. Give me more water.”
He looked greedily at the water ball in Su Xiaolu’s hand and wished he could pounce on her and drink his fill.
“No, don’t give it to him, please.”
Miao Yuehua was about to go crazy. Her voice broke. Only then did she realize that she had provoked someone she shouldn’t have. Her son was her life. She wanted to kowtow to Su Xiaolu and hoped that she could let her son off.
“I was blind. It’s all my fault. Please, I’ll do whatever you want me to do…” Miao Yuehua’s voice choked as she looked at Gui You with tears in her eyes. “As long as you don’t hurt my son…”
“Give me water, I want to drink water—”
Xiao Yi’s eyes were red and his face was flushed. He looked like he was in great pain.
Miao Yuehua was nervous and heartbroken. “Yi’er, Yi’er—you can’t drink water. Calm down.”
Xiao Yi had never suffered before. He had lived a comfortable life since he was young. She had protected him like a treasure and he had never suffered any pain. Now that he was in pain, Miao Yuehua felt as though her heart was about to break.
“Mother, it hurts. Mother, I want to drink water. Mother—help—”
Xiao Yi shouted in pain. He looked at the water ball in Su Xiaolu’s hand and cried out for Miao Yuehua.
These words broke Miao Yuehua’s heart.
Su Xiaolu distributed a water ball the size of a plum and fed it to Xiao Yi.
Xiao Yi swallowed it and looked at ease for a moment.
But soon, the pain engulfed him again. “I’m so thirsty. I still want to drink water. Give me water…”
Miao Yuehua’s beautiful eyes widened and she glared at Su Xiaolu.
That cold and heartless man was not moved by her beauty at all. His little disciple was simply a devil.
Su Xiaolu looked at Miao Yuehua and asked with a smile, “Why are you looking at me like that? I was kind enough to give your son water. Look, he’s so thirsty.”
Miao Yuehua gritted her teeth in hatred, but she could not move.
Due to the grinding, her teeth made a terrifying creaking sound.
“I have money, 400,000 taels of silver, and some precious treasures. I’ll give them all to you. I only beg you to let me off this time.”
Miao Yuehua closed her eyes. This pair of master and disciple should be selling divine medicine for money. This time, she had failed miserably. She had to accept it.
“Sigh… What money? We don’t lack that thing. We have plenty.”
Su Xiaolu sighed and casually rejected Miao Yuehua.
Miao Yuehua widened her eyes in disbelief. If they didn’t want money, what did they want?
Su Xiaolu fed another water ball to Xiao Yi.
Miao Yuehua’s voice was sharp and shrill. “Stop feeding him water… Tell me what you want. As long as I have it, I’ll give it all to you.”
When Xiao Yi drank the water, he made a loud gulping sound. At that moment, his painful expression instantly became happy, but it only lasted for a few seconds before the pain and ferocity swept across his face again. His eyes were red as he looked at Su Xiaolu’s hand. “I want to drink water. Give me water. Give me water.”
“Ahhhhh—”
Miao Yuehua screamed in pain. Torturing her son was more painful than torturing her.
She would rather endure all this torture herself than let her son suffer like this.
Remorse and tears of anger and hatred fell from the corners of her eyes. She glared at Su Xiaolu fiercely. How could there be such a terrifying young man in this world? What was his heart made of?
Su Xiaolu smiled brightly. Everyone had a weakness. For Miao Yuehua, her son was her weakness.
Miao Yuehua had harmed her Junior Brother. Since her Junior Brother could not come and get revenge, she did it on his behalf. She wanted Miao Yuehua to suffer ten times over.
Miao Yuehua looked at Su Xiaolu’s bright smile and felt cold all over. What did this demon want?
Miao Yuehua watched as she threw the water ball up and down. She quickly imagined how to delay Su Xiaolu’s actions.
She needed time to break through the acupuncture points. She had never been one to sit back and do nothing.
Su Xiaolu had treated her son like this. When she had the chance, she would definitely return it a thousand times or ten thousand times. She would definitely make the person who tortured her son suffer a fate worse than death!
Su Xiaolu smiled and flicked her finger. Water droplets that were like peanuts bounced into Xiao Yi’s mouth.
Xiao Yi opened his mouth wide like a chick in a nest.
No matter how much water he drank, he didn’t feel that it was enough. When he drank water, he felt better, but the moment he stopped, he felt pain. When there was no water to drink, his face was ferocious. “Mother, kill me. I don’t want to live anymore. I’m in so much pain…”
Miao Yuehua’s heart ached. She could not control Su Xiaolu’s temper. She thought of Su Xiaolu and her master exchanging stories for medicine and immediately said in a sharp voice, “I have a story, I have a story… Let me tell you a story. Please don’t give my son any more water. If this continues, it will kill him.”
“That powder is made of insect eggs. When it hatches in water, it will slowly become an insect within three days. It can eat people’s internal organs and cause them to be in so much pain that they wish they were dead. It’s all my fault for having evil intentions. I wanted to have all the divine medicine in your hands…”
Miao Yuehua was afraid that Su Xiaolu would feed Xiao Yi water again, so she quickly told Su Xiaolu.
Su Xiaolu looked at Miao Yuehua with a faint smile. “I see. Then if we didn’t pay attention, won’t we be like your son?”
“No, no, you wouldn’t eat so much. With your Master’s experience, he will definitely find out very quickly. Before that, you will come to me to get the antidote.”
Miao Yuehua lowered her eyes. She had originally calculated it this way, but she would not give the antidote so readily. She would make Su Xiaolu and her master suffer and cooperate with her.
“You’re so vicious, so I’m here to take revenge. I didn’t do anything wrong. I’m just giving you a taste of your own medicine.” Su Xiaolu smiled.
