476 Was There Light in Hell?

Qiao An’s heart bled at this.

Tears flickered in her eyes. “Qianyu, you could have fled.”

Qianyu smiled bitterly. “Of course, I fled. I fled again and again, but every time I was caught by him, I was beaten up. Later, he simply tied me to the bed with a chain and didn’t dress me. Later, I had a high fever on a winter night and was unconscious. He didn’t have the money to treat me, but he was afraid that I would die in his house, so he found his relative who had sold me to him and asked him to buy me back.”

“The relative was shocked to see me like this. He also regretted selling me to that animal. But he didn’t dare tell my father about my mother’s situation; he was afraid that my father would punish him.”

“Therefore, he secretly treated my illness. After I recovered, he gave me to a rich person. I remember that on the day I left, he said to me happily I could enjoy life this time as the person I was given to was rich and not perverted.”

“With that, he took out a stack of money from his bag and apologized to me for making me suffer and that what he was doing was for my own good.”

At this point, Qianyu even smiled self-deprecatingly. “At that time, I was naive enough to think that I had finally come to an end. Who knew that my new family was not a normal family at all? My new adoptive father looked at me extremely sharply. Then, he handed me a knife and asked me to stab a child on the ground to death.”

“Do you know how afraid I was? But in order to live, I really stabbed.”

“My adoptive father clapped his hands and said that I had a promising future. And the future was to kill all kinds of animals and people in tough training day after day. I knew I’d become his tool. Of course, I sold my body too. It’s just that this time it was voluntary. With different people… It’s disgusting to think about.”

Qiao An looked at Qianyu’s disgusted expression and said, “Qianyu, you’re not disgusting. They’re the ones who’re disgusting. You’re just a fallen angel who had gone through hell.”

Qianyu looked at Qiao An in a daze, her eyes suddenly red. Then, she asked Qiao An excitedly, “Do you really not think that people like me are dirty?”

Qiao An held her hand. “Qianyu, you weren’t wrong. You were so young back then and didn’t have the ability to protect yourself at all. It’s human instinct to live. Although I don’t know if you were right or wrong to kill someone to live, I know you had no choice.”

Qianyu smiled at Qiao An’s hand, then took the initiative to push it away.

She said to Qiao An, “Go disinfect yourself.”

Qiao An’s face turned pale. “Qianyu, are you infected?”

Qianyu nodded.

“Sister An’an, you’re a good girl. I can’t harm you.”

Tears rolled down Qiao An’s face uncontrollably. In the end, she lost control of her emotions and covered her face as she wailed.

Qianyu’s life was too bitter.

Those who heard it would cry.

Outside the door, Qianyu’s mother left in a daze.

Mr. Xiao looked at her lonely back with a sad expression.

Qiao An finally stabilized her emotions. At this moment, Qianyu actually told her a shocking secret. “An’an, put your ear close. I’ll tell you a secret.”

Qiao An pressed her ear against Qianyu’s face. Qianyu covered her mouth with paper to prevent airborne transmission of her disease. “Sister An’an, my adoptive father goes to the White Horse Temple to pay his respects every August 15th. Kill him for me.”

Qiao An nodded. “I understand.”

Before leaving, Qiao An looked at Qianyu firmly. “Live well and wait for my good news.”

Qianyu was stunned.

Qiao An said, “I know it’s hard for you to live. But it’s even harder for me to complete your mission. So you have to live and give me mental strength.”

Qianyu smiled and said bitterly, “Okay.”

Qiao An left the ward and Uncle Xiao brought her to his office.

“Qiao An, what did she tell you?”

Qiao An’s gaze fell to the opposite wall, where a calendar hung. “August 15,” she said. “That man is going to the White Horse Temple to offer sacrifices.”

Uncle Xiao thought for a moment and said, “I have to think about this at length. Whether Qianyu’s information is reliable or not, we have to figure out the other party’s situation before we can take action.”

Qiao An said, “Uncle Xiao, Xiao Ming and Falcon will definitely go that day.”

Uncle Xiao’s expression changed instantly. He said excitedly, “What did you say? Xiao Ming? He’s not dead?”

“Yes, Brother Xiao Ming isn’t dead. For so long, he’s endured humiliation and your disdain. Actually, he’s been following that group alone. Because he wants to avenge Sister Qianqian. And that day would be a wonderful opportunity for him. I think he’ll definitely go.”

“Uncle Xiao, I know your concerns, but I keep feeling that Qianyu might not be lying. If the information she revealed this time is true, it’s a good opportunity for us to eliminate the other party.”

Finally, Qiao An mouthed the words, “Cooperate from the inside and attack from the outside.”

Uncle Xiao said, “Qiao An, you can’t be rash. Go back and wait for my news.”

Qiao An was a little angry…

Uncle Xiao looked at the pouting Qiao An and laughed heartily.

He pointed at Qiao An and said, “My father is right. Although you’re a woman, you’re as brave as a man. However, Qiao An, courage alone won’t do. How is the terrain of the White Horse Temple? How do we surround it? The escape route of the bandits must have been planned in advance. Who do we send to complete the mission? These things have to be planned meticulously.”

Qiao An blushed and smiled sheepishly. “Uncle, I was rash.”

Just then, a voice suddenly came from behind.

“I want to participate in this mission.”

Uncle Xiao and Qiao An turned around at the same time and saw Huo Xiaoran walking in heroically.

Uncle Xiao said, “Nonsense. You two simply know how to fool around.”

Xiao Ran walked up to Uncle Xiao. “I’m not fooling around. I have a wife and children. Why would I use my life to fool around?”

Uncle Xiao said, “But you’re not a police officer. Are you experienced in catching those outlaws? Aren’t you going to die in vain?”

Huo Xiaoran said, “I’m very familiar with the terrain of the White Horse Temple.”

“How are you familiar?” Uncle Xiao questioned him angrily.

Qiao An explained on behalf of Huo Xiaoran, “Uncle, I was once buried alive in the dense forest outside the White Horse Temple. Xiaoran found me there and saved me.”

Uncle Xiao was very surprised.

It took powerful coordination to save Qiao An in time in such a huge forest.
