79 Get Lost

“She… she said she likes Bai Shuang and wants to invite her to tea. She asked me to bring her there…” Madam Sun said in a shrill, trembling voice.

Uncle Hea and the others had also heard the commotion and walked over. Although they did not know what Bai Shuang went through, they could tell that she had suffered a very traumatic experience from the look of terror in her eyes that had not dissipated since her return.

The corner of Su Ying’s lips curled up with a hint of bloodthirsty intent. “What did she give you?”

Madam Sun shook her head desperately. “No, nothing. Nothing at all.”

Su Ying grabbed her by the lapels, pulled her up, and shook her violently.

Thud! A money pouch fell out of Madam Sun’s body.

Madam Sun panicked when she saw this. She struggled to reach out and pick it up. “Let me go, let me go. I… I don’t want to stay with you guys anymore. I want to go, I want to go. What right do you guys have to hit me!”

Su Ying pushed her away and picked up the pouch on the ground. She poured out a few dozen taels of silver and held them in her hands.

When Wang Lang saw the silver, his eyes widened in shock. He knew better than anyone else that the silver they had brought with them when they were exiled had long been used up along the way. His mother could not possibly have so much silver.

“Did she give you this?”

Madam Sun looked at the silver in her hand and got up to grab it.

Su Ying suddenly reached out and grabbed Madam Sun’s chin, forcing her to open her mouth. Then, she stuffed all the silver into her mouth.

“Oof! Oof!”

“For this bit of silver, you can actually endanger Bai Shuang’s life. Then today I will use this silver to choke you to death!”

Madam Sun’s eyes were filled with fear. She struggled in fear, but she couldn’t break free from Su Ying’s grip.

When he saw this. Wang Lang was extremely frightened. “Mistress, Master, I beg you. I’m begging you to let my mother live. I beg all of you. I… I will immediately take them away and leave. I will definitely not bother Master and Mistress in the future. I beg of you, Mistress…”

Wang Lang desperately kowtowed to Su Ying, but Su Ying did not seem to see him. She continued stuffing silver into Madam Sun’s mouth and did not relent until the last piece of silver went in. She clenched Madam Sun’s mouth shut tightly, not giving her the chance to spit out the silver.

Madam Sun clutched her neck in pain. She wanted to dig out the silver but found that she couldn’t do it at all. All the silver was stuck in her throat, almost taking her life.

Su Ying looked at Wang Lang with an indifferent expression. “Wang Lang, all of you listen up. If you hadn’t followed Xiao Jin into battle, you wouldn’t have the glory you had before. You willingly followed him, so you will be dragged down during his downfall and you’ll have to suffer with him. He doesn’t owe you anything. You can hate me for the fact that all of you got exiled, but I also saved your life. You have no right to say I owe you anything.”

As she spoke, she took out a pouch of medicine and toss it to him. “This is your medicine for the future. Take it as Xiao Jin repaying you for all these years of friendship. From now on, we can only be strangers. As for your mother, even if she’s lucky enough to survive tonight, I’ll beat her up every time I see her in the future. So, you’d better not let her appear in my sight again. Now, get out of my sight before I change my mind and take her life!”

Madam Zhou and Wang Furong, who had been hiding at the side, were terrified when they saw Su Ying’s murderous aura. They quickly ran forward and helped Wang Lang up. “Husband, let’s… let’s go. Let’s go quickly.”

Wang Lang turned to look at Xiao Jin and kowtowed a few times to him. “I have never harbored any hatred towards Your Highness. I, Wang Lang, should bear all the consequences today. Your subordinate can no longer serve Your Highness. Please take care, Your Highness.”

Wang Lang struggled to get up and asked Madam Zhou and Wang Furong to help Madam Sun up, who was lying in great pain on the ground. They then walked into the endless night.

Aunt Zhao and the others looked at their departing back profiles as they left. They felt both happy and a little uncomfortable in their hearts. However, regardless of how they felt, if Madam Sun could do something harmful once, she could do it a second time. They could not keep this kind of person with them.

“Mistress, don’t… don’t be angry. I… I’m fine. I’m really fine…” Bai Shuang looked at Su Ying as tears flowed down her face again. No one knew how terrified and helpless she was at that time.

Aunt Zhao’s heart ached as she hugged Bai Shuang. “It’s alright. Don’t cry anymore. You’re going to scare Mistress like this. It’s alright. I will stay by your side.”

“Mistress, who is the person in that wooden building? What do they want to do with Bai Shuang?” Tian Mu and the others all gathered around.

Everyone was curious about the secret hidden in the wooden building.

Su Ying felt that there were some things that needed to be explained to them. That way, they would be constantly reminded they couldn’t let their guard down in this place.

“There is a room behind the wooden building. It is filled with remnant human corpses. The two women in the wooden building feed on human flesh.”

“What? Eating human flesh as food?”

“This… this is too scary. There are indeed all kinds of evil people in the northern wilderness.” Zhang Cuiniang was also frightened quite badly. If she hadn’t followed Su Ying, even if they had made it to this place alive, it would have been difficult for them to survive here successfully.

“Therefore, you should all be more vigilant in the future. Don’t leave our sphere of influence rashly.”

“Yes, you are right, Mistress.”

The annoying Madam Sun might have been driven away, but their mood was not too good. Perhaps they were shocked by the various hidden dangers and unseen perils in the Tiger Base. After everyone had eaten their fill at night, they went to sleep.

Su Ying got into the carriage and covered the soundly sleeping twins Ji and Ling with the blanket.

She glanced at Xiao Jin. After Wang Lang’s family left, he hadn’t said a word the entire night.

“What’s wrong? Are you feeling bad?”

Xiao Jin raised his eyes to look at Su Ying. Under the moonlight, her almond-shaped eyes were exceptionally bright.

“A little. But I can accept it. Loyalty and righteousness can be difficult to achieve at the same time. Besides, I’m not a Prince now. He has the freedom to choose what he wants. You saved his life and gave him medicine for his recovery. You have done enough.”

“Since you can accept it, then what are you still feeling melancholic about?” Initially, she had planned to let Wang Lang recover completely before letting his family leave, but Madam Sun had asked for it herself.

Xiao Jin lowered his eyes. He suddenly felt a little terrified just now. If it wasn’t for Su Ying helping them through everything they had encountered along the way, he might have already died by now.

He saw that Su Ying was shouldering everything herself, and this made him feel very depressed. He was like a useless piece of trash who couldn’t help in anything at all.

“Su Ying, after the house is built, help me treat my legs.”

Su Ying raised her eyebrows and nodded. “No problem. I’ll go look for a water source tomorrow and then come back to help speed up the construction of the house. Once we have a safe place to settle down, I’ll start your follow-up treatment.”

“Mm-hmm.”

“Urgh!” Su Ying’s stomach churned suddenly.

She quickly jumped off the carriage and vomited at the side.

Xiao Jin’s expression changed. He hurriedly propped himself up and asked anxiously, “Su Ying, what’s wrong?”
