Kapitel 53: Kidnapping

My eyes finally came into focus and I was stunned by what I saw.

My hands were tied behind my back and it was why my muscles felt so stiff. Not far ahead of me was a man who was hanging from the ceiling. There were 5 people surrounding him, hitting him with whips and sticks. His clothes were already stained with blood.

I saw Jing Ni standing before the man who was tied up. She too had her hands tied behind her like me. She shielded the blows for the man.

The strung up man growled hoarsely, "Jing Ni! Leave me be! Save yourself!"

Jing Ni cried, "No, I won't leave." There was another whiplash and Jing Ni screamed as she collapsed to the ground.

"S... stop!" I struggled to stand up. My voice was so weak that they didn't hear me. The five continued to toy with their captives.

"Get back up, are you giving up so soon, girl? Come and block the beating for your man!"
