Chapter 115: Drugged
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Yuan Shu’s whip was made of a special material. Moreover, after the whip was completed, Yuan Shu still felt that it wasn’t heavy enough, so she mixed iron threads with silk in the whip. It was softer and more strenuous. When she swung the whip, the pain was no less than that of five big whacks with a board.
Yuan Shu was famous in the palace for being good at wielding the whip. There were a few times when a small Imperial Supervisor who had made a mistake had to be punished, and the emperor would change the 20 whacks from a board to 15 whips from Yuan Shu’s whip.
The pain from the whip didn’t decrease at all, but compared to the board, it didn’t affect his usual work. Basically, he could be on duty as usual tomorrow even after being whipped today. However, the pain was much more intense than that of the board.
Although those eunuchs were afraid of pain, they were also worried that their monthly salary would be deducted because they were recuperating. That way, they would have less money to bring home. Therefore, in order to earn enough monthly salary, they would choose Yuan Shu to carry out the punishment.
Later, when they arrived at the military camp, the military stick slowly became Yuan Shu’s whip. It could be said that in the military camp and even the palace, as long as Yuan Shu’s whip was mentioned, everyone would become very afraid.
Gao Shan wasn’t any better after being beaten up. Even those who were in fights quite often were afraid, let alone a hedonistic man like him.
Blood beads seeped out of his stomach. It was so painful that he knelt on the ground and held his stomach. His back became more and more bent. In the end, he pressed his head against the ground in pain. He wanted to cover his stomach, but he was afraid of touching the wound.
“Ah… you woman! You hag! Let me tell you, Shi Xiao is coming back soon! He will definitely divorce you! At that time, you’ll be an unwanted piece of trash!” Gao Shan was still cursing.
Yuan Shu didn’t say a word to him from the beginning to the end. She waved the whip in her hand and the whip made a beautiful arc in the air, but she herself didn’t move at all. Even her skirt didn’t move at all. She looked so elegant that it was as if she was orchestrating and Gao Shan’s painful roar was just an accompaniment.
After Yuan Shu whipped Gao Shan’s back and waist a few more times, Gao Shan rolled on the ground in pain. When he saw Yuan Shu raise her hand again, he trembled in fear and begged in complete disregard for his image, “Ah… Ah… I was wrong! Please be magnanimous… Ah… Let me go! Ah…!”
There were very few people on the rooftop, but his voice attracted one or two people to watch from afar.
After about three more lashes, Yuan Shu finally stopped when she saw his pale face.
Her wrist moved slightly again, scaring Gao Shan so much that he immediately raised his hand to protect himself. However, Yuan Shu didn’t hit him this time. She only retracted the whip and turned it into an inconspicuous ball again before putting it into her handbag.
At this moment, the phone in her bag rang. It was a call from Zhang Chao. His tone was a little awkward as he said, “Madam Shi, we’ve found Second Young Master, but his condition isn’t good. Please come and take a look. His room is room 888.”
“Okay.” After Yuan Shu hung up the phone, she didn’t even look at Gao Shan. She turned around and walked from the elevator to the eighth floor.
When they reached the room, Yuan Shu finally understood what Zhang Chao meant.
Room 888 was a presidential suite. Yuan Shu had to go around the living room to reach the room. As soon as she entered the room, she saw Shi Lu sleeping soundly on the 1.8-meter soft bed in the room. Her face was unnaturally flushed and no matter how Zhang Chao called out to him, he didn’t react.
After Yuan Shu observed carefully, she guessed that he must have been drugged. After Yuan Shu walked to the television cabinet to pick up the mineral water on it, she returned to the bed and said coldly, “Move aside.”
Zhang Chao didn’t dare to get in the way and immediately dodged to the side.
Yuan Shu unscrewed the cap of the mineral water bottle and poured it over Shi Lu’s head without a word.
After the water spilled onto Shi Lu’s handsome face, the impact didn’t wake Shi Lu up completely. After about ten seconds, Shi Lu choked on the water when he was breathing. When the cold water rushed into his respiratory tract, he choked and woke up as he coughed..
