Chapter 547: 550: Pain Freeing from Death to Life
The Ye Family did provide her shelter for five years, but she also sold her body for three years to earn them billions.
Isn’t that enough?
Even if their kindness cannot be repaid with money, after living at the Ye Family for five years, shouldn’t she have meant something to them, as much as a pet cat or dog would have?
How were they able to simply gag her, without asking a single question, and toss her to the Shi family?
At this moment, Ye Xingbei’s emotions are in a state of collapse.
She always considered the Ye Family her home.
She treated Ye Zhitong and Ye Wuwei as her elders.
But now, she realizes that in the Ye Family, she was nothing more than an expendable servant.
Without second thought Ye Zhitong threw her away the moment someone asked for her.
Thinking about Senior Master Xie who favors his own granddaughter, and about Ye Xinglan who favors his girlfriend, large tears slide out of her eyes.
Once, she thought that even if she had no parents, she could still be happy with her grandparents, and her older cousins and brothers.
But now she clearly realizes that grandparents belong to others, and an older cousin is someone else’s boyfriend.
Only in their parents’ hearts do children hold an unreplaceable first place, a position they would not sacrifice for anything.
Unfortunately, she is unlucky. She has no chance of experiencing this kind of love.
Seeing her in tears, Wu Qizhen showed an expression of intense satisfaction from revenge.
She grabbed Ye Xingbei’s hair and gave her several resounding slaps, “Hang her up!”
Ye Xingbei was hoisted against a wall with her hands tied.
Wu Qizhen picked up a whip, and ruthlessly thrashed her till she was gasping for breath and completely drained of energy.
Ye Xingbei was beaten till her clothes were torn, and she was covered in wounds.
Wu Qizhen picked up a red-hot branding iron, her eyes full of hatred as she glared at Ye Xingbei, “Ye Xingbei, do you know what blood debt is? Whatever you did to my daughter yesterday, today I will take double from you!”
Ye Xingbei’s mouth was stuffed, and she was in so much pain that she felt like she was going to die several times over.
Even if her mouth wasn’t gagged, she wouldn’t have had the strength to speak.
Wu Qizhen was about to press the branding iron against Ye Xingbei’s shoulder when a middle-aged man beside her blocked her.
“Madam,” The man was bent at the waist, fawning like an obsequious prawn, “The brothel said that whip marks were fine, but burn marks aren’t – they won’t accept her.”
Wu Qizhen narrowed her eyebrows and threw the branding iron back into the fire basin, cursing, “Awful!”
The man said, “Madam, let’s quickly get her sent over. Having her in our house is a recipe for trouble. If we send her off, no matter who comes looking for her, we can pretend we haven’t seen her and wash our hands off the whole thing!”
“What’s there to fear? Who dares to search our house?” Wu Qizhen argued, but signaled him to proceed anyway, “Fine, just send her off.”
Sending her there would only worsen Ye Xingbei’s plight.
For a woman, there was nowhere more terrifying than an underground brothel.
She was going to make Ye Xingbei pay for mistreating her daughter. She would send her to be used until she was shattered by men, to be played with till she was on the brink of death!
Just like when brought to the Ye house, Ye Xingbei was put into a box again, carried onto a vehicle, and sent to a notorious underground brothel in Country Y.
The brothel’s manager checked the goods. A deal was made whereby the Shi family and the manager exchanged money and goods.
The Shi family didn’t haggle. Whatever amount the brothel manager gave, they took.
Their goal wasn’t money, but to find a “proper place” for Ye Xingbei.
The underground brothel had a powerful secret backer. Anyone sold there was doomed to never leave.
Once a woman was sold into this place, it was as if she vanished from the world.
Later, when the brothers Ye Xinglan and Ye Xingli found out about Ye Xingbei’s disappearance, as long as the Shi family insists they never saw Ye Xingbei, no one would be able to do anything to them.
