Before leaving, Gu Zheng said, "This mission is the most important. If you are unlucky enough to be exposed, I will definitely send someone to rescue you."

Wu Chuan stared at the pair of deep eyes, listening to his sigh, "Your life, is mine."

At this moment, Wu Chuan, who was squatting on the roof of the Wei Mansion, looked through the tiles at the hazy mist in the inner hall and bit his lips.

Before he could move, a cold and bloodthirsty voice abruptly rang out. "Was it Gu Zheng who sent that traitor Gu Zheng to assassinate our Regional Commander?"

Forgotten was shocked and his actions revealed some flaws. The tiles underneath him jingled a few times and he saw Wei Qianshui's guards running towards him.

Who would have thought that the legendary violent and bloodthirsty Dong Fang factory owner would actually raise a group of dark guards.

A trace of surprise flashed through her calm eyes.

At this moment, the inner hall door opened. Wei Yi had long black hair and was wearing a red sleeveless shirt. He did not dodge the brocade spring knife, and his handsome face froze.

In the blink of an eye, the Embroidered Spring Saber had been placed on Wei Yi's slender neck, and Wangchuan was also tightly surrounded by the secret guards of the Wei Residence.

Wei Yi's eyes narrowed as he lowered his head and concentrated on his blade. The red robe he was wearing was exceptionally alluring.

But she knew that if she really looked down on him, she would probably immediately lose her life, and he would be so beautiful that he would even lose his life if she were to truly look down on him.

"As expected, it's Gu Zheng's henchman."

Wei Yi's eyes swiveled with interest as a faint smile lingered in his eyes. It was as though he was not worried about the Embroidered Spring Saber slicing through his fragile and beautiful neck.

Forgotten could not bear to listen to anyone insult Gu Zheng, he exerted a little strength in his hands and the saber blade seeped into his smooth skin, tinged with a hint of scarlet.

He wanted to let Wei Yi know that she truly dared to take his life.

"Master Wei!"

Upon seeing that Wangchuan had injured Wei Yi, the hidden guards had already aimed their crossbows at every single part of his body. They only had to wait for Wei Yi's orders before they could shoot him down into a sieve.

Wu Chuan pursed his lips. There wasn't a single ripple in his lifeless eyes, as if it was real … Life and death were out of the question.

Upon seeing this, the corners of Wei Yi's lips curled up. "You don't dare to kill me."

Wu Chuan's heart trembled slightly as he recalled the secret he had just seen and his intuition that Wei Yi would not let her off.

Who would have thought that the powerful Eastern plant owner would actually …

Wei Yi's eyes flickered as he hesitated for a moment before a pair of large hands wrapped around his wrist. His wrist went numb as the Embroidered Spring Saber fell to the ground with a thud.

Wei Yi knew how to fight.

Wangchuan felt a little hopeless. Now that she knew another secret of his, it seemed that she would not be able to leave the Wei Residence tonight.

"Someone, dig out her eyes and use her as the Director's wedding present to the Commander."

Wei Yi's eyes, which were not happy with Forgetfulness, were calm and indifferent, yet concealed with deep emotions. How could that traitor Gu Zheng be worthy of such eyes?

Wangchuan didn't struggle. She had expected that Wei Yi would cut out her eyes, cut off her tongue, and even break her arms and legs.

Only because this was his way of keeping his secret.

While she was lost in her thoughts, her hands were gripped tightly by someone else. A sharp dagger suddenly broke into her sight, and in the next moment, it forcibly stabbed into her eye socket.

His warm eyes fell to the ground and rolled into Wei Yi's line of sight. They were bloodstained and indifferent as usual.

"Ah …" So painful, Wangchuan bit her lip in pain, while her teeth seeped into her lips. Fresh blood flowed out from her eye sockets, just like blood tears.

In an instant, he was in a sorry state like a dead dog as he laid paralyzed on the stone floor. Only his light footsteps could be heard, and in the next moment, Wei Yi's fingers had already covered him.

"I will temporarily spare your life after you made your first mistake. If there is a next time, I will definitely let you …" "Yes, there's no reply."

Forgotten panted heavily, as if his eyes had been touched by water, and replied, "Thank you, Sir Qian Jing, for your magnanimity."

"Do you hate me?"

The tip of Wei Yi's tongue lightly licked his lips, and at the instant that beautiful red color was swallowed, he seemed to have tasted a strand of sweetness.

Wu Chuan did not answer. Watching her being carried away and thrown out of the Wei Residence, his eyes gradually lost its warmth and became covered in a layer of white frost.

"..."

Just as dawn arrived, Wu Chuan was thrown outside the Gu Residence.

She was in so much pain that her limbs twitched, and she was unable to get up. The peddlers looked at her weirdly, but they did not dare to approach her to inspect her. They only surrounded her and pointed at her.

Soon, the door of the mansion opened, and Wangchuan was carried in by a group of dexterous women. Surprisingly, they threw her in a place that looked like a woodshed.

The grass beneath her was very hard, and she could still hear the rustling sounds, like the squeaking of a mouse.

A woman looked at Wu Chuan, whose eyes had been gouged out and whose face was covered in blood. She was both disgusted and fearful. "Madame said that Miss Wu Chuan lost her face in the Gu Residence, so I'll reflect on it here first …"

Wu Chuan smirked, he raised his hand to wipe his face, but suddenly came in contact with something soft. She gripped onto it, wrapped it around her wrist, and aimed it at her palm, and took a bite.

She flung the worm against the wall. Before she could struggle to get up, she heard the sound of the door of the woodshed being locked.

She gritted her teeth and took a deep breath, feeling helpless —

Being bullied by a dog when a tiger falls on the plain and Gu Zheng not being around, of course the old wives who see the wind and order around had to curry favor with their new wives.

Wu Chuan lifted her hand and placed the blade of the tiger in her mouth. Her tongue tasted the blood, and she knew that it was a long, non-poisonous insect, and that there were countless of it in the prison. She had also personally sent a traitor who had colluded with East Manor into the snake den, and in these three days, that person was practically just a skeleton, dying …

After an unknown period of time, the wood door opened.

Wu Chuan subconsciously raised his head and heard a sneer:

"It turns out that my eyes were gouged out like this. Truly pitiful."

When the new wife saw that Wu Chuan had ignored her and was suddenly looked straight into those dark eyes, her heart began pounding, but before she entered the house she heard that Wu Chuan was interested in Gu Zheng. A hint of ruthlessness surfaced on her charming face and she clapped her hands lightly.

Wu Chuan frowned slightly as his fingers subconsciously groped around his waist, touching the dagger Gu Zheng had given her back then. Only then did she feel a sliver of comfort.

Wu Chuan did not know that this new madam boasted that her birth was nobler than Gu Zheng's. Although she was a concubine from the palace, she still had face.

Yesterday, she had purposefully been gentle and petty in front of Gu Zheng in order to hook Gu Zheng's heart, but when faced with the women of Gu Zheng's residence, she had not been cowardly at all.

"It's merely a thousand men of the Embroidered Uniform Guard. You, Lord Gu, don't need to offend Prince Yongding's Estate for a cripple."

As soon as he finished speaking, Wangchuan was surprised that the sound in the courtyard had died down, when he heard familiar footsteps.

It was Gu Zheng.
