Qianxunâs heart felt as if it had been torn to shreds, her tears uncontrollable.
She felt this way, so how much worse must it have been for Li Sinian?
If he knew his Wei Wei had endured such torment, how heartbroken would he be?
Compared to the overwhelmed Qianxun, the actual victim, Heather, appeared very calm. She looked at Qianxun and smiled, "Stop crying. If Fourth Master sees you like this, heâll be heartbroken. Iâm fine, it doesnât matter, I donât mind."
Thatâs a lie...
Qianxun didnât say it aloud.
But she knew it in her heart, how could it not matter?
Her words might deceive, but her expression couldnât!
If she could perish together with Night Hawk at that moment, she would choose to do so without hesitation.
Though Night Hawk was ruthless, he kept his word. He had River Sparrow release her, blindfolded, and led out.
Watching as Qianxun walked past her, Heather paused, then said, "Qianxun, donât tell him. If you can stop him, just tell him not to care about my life or death."
Compared to a head-on attack, wiping out their entire faction, rescuing Heather from Night Hawkâs hands was several times more difficult.
But, this minuscule probability was daunting, and Li Sinian was almost certainly not going to attempt it.
Despite knowing the chances he would agree were slim, Heather still held onto a sliver of hope.
"Wait a moment." Night Hawk suddenly called out to stop them.
Qianxunâs heart sank instantly, what else did he want to do!?
"When you return, you naturally have to bring Mr. Li a gift."
River Sparrow understood and once again removed Qianxunâs blindfold, turning her around to watch.
Heather was pulled up from the ground by Night Hawk, and he drew a sharp dagger from his waist, placing her hand on the table, with a "thud," the dagger landed between her two fingers.
Qianxunâs heart skipped a beat and she shouted, "Enough! You canât treat Sister Weiwei like this!"
"Why canât I?"
Heather did not struggle.
She knew Night Hawkâs personality, things he decided to do, he would definitely carry out, not just say casually.
"Mrs. Gu, Iâll give you a choice, tell me, which of her fingers would Mr. Li prefer?"
"No..." Qianxun shook her head.
"Iâll give you three seconds, if you donât say, Iâll send her entire hand to him, perhaps he will like it more, right?"
Qianxunâs eyes widened; she couldnât believe the person before her was such a demon.
"Night Hawk, why make things difficult for Qianxun?" Heatherâs anger always ignited for the sake of others, "If you want to kill or torture, do it to me! I, Heather, fear nothing!"
Qianxun was pregnant, how could she endure such a shock?
"I know youâre not afraid, but I really want to see if Li Sinian would lose his mind and rush to his death in front of me upon receiving this gift. Mrs. Gu, you have three seconds, treasure it, threeâ"
"No..." Qianxun cried and shook her head, "I beg you, donât do this..."
"Twoâ"
"Sister..." What should she do!?
"Oneâ" Night Hawk already had the dagger in hand, raised it.
"Noâ!!!" Qianxun screamed in horror, "The little finger!!!"
Tearfully she made this agonizing decision, already in a flood of tears.
Because she believed this demon called Night Hawk would truly do it!
"Thank you for your choice, Mrs. Gu."
"Ahâ"
Heatherâs heart-wrenching scream echoed throughout the vast, empty room.
