There was a water prison in the basement of the brocade palace, and Shen Yihan was locked in there. Although he was still hanging on, he was neither human nor ghost.

Huo Yun Chen stood in front of him, his gaze as sharp as a knife staring at his face.

"Huo Yun Chen, if you have the ability, kill me? Otherwise, I will definitely kill you one day. "

Shen Yi Han shouted like he was going crazy, and was thrown back into the water before he could finish his sentence.

The water was full of rats. Mice with black eyes glowing with green light went into his cage and desperately bit at his flesh.

Every time he was badly mutilated, they treated him.

Even if he wanted to die, they wouldn't let him die. They just wanted to keep torturing and humiliating him.

When he came out of the water again, Liu Kai asked coldly, "Young Master Shen, do you still have the strength to scold? If I were you, I would obediently call out who ordered you to do it and protect your own life. You know, our husband never wanted your life. We have ten thousand ways to make you wish you were dead. If young master Shen likes it, we can change it to another way tomorrow. Snake, how about it? Does Young Master Shen think that it's exciting? "

"No, no," I said. It's Kubei An, he helped me plan everything. Otherwise, I wouldn't dare to do it even if you gave me a hundred guts. "Mr. Huo, you've pissed me off. A scum like me really isn't worthy of dirtying your hands."

Shen Yihan finally relented. He had to suffer so much before he could loosen his mouth. It was going to be tough for him.

Liu Kai glared at him coldly. Then, he turned to look at Huo Yun Chen, who was sitting beside him, waiting for his orders.

Huo Yun Chen tossed the cigarette in his hand onto the ground. His shiny leather shoes fiercely crushed the cigarette.

A low alcohol voice came out of her thin and cold lips, "What about Bai Fei Fei? Is he working for Gu Beian too? "

"Yes, Gu Bei An saved Bai Fei Fei and me, and he even took us in. Bai Fei Fei really trusts him."

Shen Yi Han answered with fear.

Liu Kai let out a cold laugh and said mockingly, "Hmph, young master Shen has been turned into a spearhead by someone yet he's still in the valley protecting that bastard. How funny."

Shen Yihan had no idea what was going on between Huo Yun Chen and Gu Bei An.

But after thinking about the reasons behind all of this, he realized that he had been provoked by Gu Beian.

He immediately knelt down and begged for mercy, "Mr. Huo, please forgive me. I was instigated by that Gu Bei An."

With a cold smile, Huo Yun Chen continued, "I'll give you a chance to prove yourself. As long as you do well, I'll return the Shen family's business to you as it was before."

Shen Yi Han was deeply grateful, kowtowing a dozen times, "Thank you, Mr. Huo. Thank you, Mr. Huo. I will definitely sacrifice myself for you."

Huo Yun Chen did not say anything and simply left.

"Liu Kai, tell him what he should do."

"Yes!"

"Thank you, Mr. Huo. Thank you, Mr. Huo."

Shen Yi Han watched Huo Yun Chen leave, kowtowing as soon as he thought of the fact that he could retrieve his family's property.

"As long as you follow by his side and tell me his every move, what I want is proof that you can kill him in one blow."

Liu Kai's cold and harsh voice reverberated in the basement. It was filled with a sinister and netherworld sense of vision.

"Yes — I know I'll do my best for Mr. Howe."

Shen Yi Han was deeply grateful and delighted.

Liu Kai personally sent Shen Yihan off. Huo Yun Chen's figure disappeared into the darkness, his eyes staring at the back of the man who was happily leaving.

"Sir, are we really going to send him to keep an eye on Gu Bei An? Kubei An has always been suspicious and has never trusted anyone. All these years, none of the people we've arranged for him to return alive. Will Shen Yihan be able to gain Gu Beian's trust? "

"If we can live, if we can't die, what does it have to do with us?"

Huo Yun Chen's tone was icy, his eyes cold.

Only then did Liu Kai understand his true intentions. If Shen Yihan can be of use to us, then he can live well. If he can't, then Gu Beian will be the one to get rid of him.

What a good way to kill someone. He stretched out his hand and scratched his head as he chased after Huo Yun Chen, asking, "But Mister, what if Shen Yi Han betrays us?"

"Will we be afraid?"

"I'm afraid, no, I'm not afraid. The only person that Sir is afraid of is Young Mistress."

Liu Kai thought that his flattery was pretty good. Just as he was feeling pleased with himself, he was greeted by Huo Yun Chen's cold darkness.

Ye Zichen quickly shut up.

"Shen Yihan has the watch with him. No matter if he's alive or dead, we have to get it back."

"A watch? "Oh, okay, I'll remember."

Liu Kai was stupefied. Shen Yi Han's broken watch was something even he couldn't see through. How could Mister take a fancy to it?

He wanted to ask but didn't dare to ask too much. Perhaps, Mister has a practical use for it.

A few days later, Bai Qing, accompanied by Huo YunChen, met with her mother's attending physician.

An old lady who had retired in her seventies had a benevolent face, sharp ears, and a strong body.

When he saw her, he took her hand and told her a lot of details about the early stages of pregnancy.

It made Bai Qingqing feel very close, and she never took the initiative to mention her mother.

It was the old lady herself who brought it up. When she talked about her mother, the old lady's expression became sad.

"She is the most good-looking female patient that I have ever treated, but her fate is also the most miserable. You and your mother look alike, but you are a lot happier than your mother. At least you have a husband who loves you, but even if your mother had uterine cancer and it spread all over her body, your father never even came to the hospital to see her. Sigh, your mother is very strong, no matter how painful and bitter the chemotherapy is, she didn't make a sound. She was holding a picture of a little girl, but unfortunately, she still couldn't step through the door to hell. Now that I think about it, that little girl should be you. "Child, you must definitely live a good life and cherish what you have now. This way, you won't disappoint your mother's spirit in heaven."

Bai Qingqing's heart felt like it was being tightly held by someone. She thought of the pain her mother had suffered when she was still alive, and the pain she had endured, it was as if all of it had fallen on her.

Leaving the old lady's house, she snuggled up against Huo Yun Chen's chest, refusing to say a single word.

Huo Yun Chen didn't say anything as he looked outside the window. People were passing by him like the wind.

His heart felt as if it had been pierced by a long needle. The pain was so painful that it was numbing.

How could he believe that it was his own mother who had caused another woman to suffer for the rest of her life, ending it miserably?

And what was he doing?

He desperately tried to conceal the truth, protecting his mother, tricking the woman who deeply loved him and trusted him.

"Yun Chen, can you help me find my father?"

"Why did you suddenly think of looking for him?"

"I want to personally ask him why he abandoned my mother when she was pregnant. I want to ask him why he hasn't shown up to see me after so many years."

Bai Qingqing's emotions were stirred up, and her tears even wet his shirt.

"Alright, I'll help you find it. But you can't be sad, you can't be sad, have you forgotten what Grandma Xu said just now? Living a good life, living a happy life, is the biggest return to your mommy. "Don't think too much, okay?"

Huo Yun Chen's slightly cold fingertips gently landed on her face, wiping away the tears on it. His tone was gentle, and his eyes were filled with a doting expression.

Bai gently grinned and gave her a sweet kiss.

"Grandma Xu is right. I have a husband who loves me so much, and a cute son. I even have a pair of baby girls in my belly. "It must be my mother protecting me in the sky. She must be looking at me. If I am happy, she will definitely be happy."

"Yes, it will."

Huo Yun Chen kissed her as he spoke, his voice firm and firm.

It wasn't that he was trying to deceive her, but that he was too afraid of losing her.
