Capítulo 27: master piece
Yin Zhu felt her mouth drop open as she looked at the man and swallowed all the curses that were invading her mouth. Did he just say that he will watch her fall to her death and then commemorate her memory? And in case she doesn't die he will come down to finish the job? Was he a lunatic?
Maybe he was, after all, he just killed a maid for no rhyme and reason and now she ended up falling in his hands. Her sister did say that the second young master of the Situ family has the habit of watching others in pain but she never thought he would be this big of a pervert.
Yin Zhu has been brought up securely by her father and sister but she was smart enough to recognise danger.
And she was wise enough to categorise people who were bad for her heart and her life and this man was certainly going to rank at the top of her list.
She needed to get out of here. Right now.
Yin Zhu ignored her nerves that were a wreck at the moment, she also ignored her mental state which was badly shaken up. All the warnings and rules flew out of her mind when she realised that she was going to die if she didn't get rid of this man fast.
She raised her eyes and stared at those dead ones and said in a stern, no-nonsense voice, " I wasn't planning to die, I was trying to escape. I wanted to save my life not ruin it and I would be grateful if you let me go….young master." She added bitterly.
Life was unfair she knew but she never thought that it was this unfair.
The man raised an eyebrow as he tilted his head to the side, his mouth twitching as his lips moved slightly upwards. " Is that so?"
" Yes, so if you don't mind can you please pull me up?" Yin Zhu could, of course, do that if she wanted, after all, she had one of her hands free, if she was to pull herself up she could have done that but the thing was her actions could have a totally different effect than she intended.
If the man got offended then it would not take long for her to meet her maker.
The man kept a hold of her hand and then with a nonchalant look on his face he pulled out a long cigar holder and then placed it in his mouth before lighting its tip with the lighter that he was carrying with him.
Yin Zhu watched as the tip ignited into a small amber orb and then she watched as the man took his sweet time before he took a long drag of his cigar and blew out a cloud of smoke right on her face.
" And what will I get in return?" He asked as if he wasn't the rich young master of a family who have both power and riches to last for an entire century.
" I will be grateful for my entire life, young master."
" Try again."
" I will name my firstborn after you."
The man's eyes widened in surprise before he shook his head with his lips twitching slightly. " What good will be it to me?"
Yin Zhu pursed her lips as she looked at the man, she could feel her wrist getting sweaty under the hold of the man, she could die at even the smallest mistake on his part.
But she still forced herself to stay calm and asked, " What else do you want, second young master?"
The man raised his hand and then placed his forefinger on the edge of her forehead as he skimmed it down, causing goosebumps to break all over Yin Zhu's skin.
Her sister did tell her that the three young masters were very fond of breaking women in their bedrooms and a chill immediately climbed up her spine as she remembered about it.
She eyed the man warily and said, " I am not that kind of woman, don't even think about it."
The man paused in his movements as he raised his hand and tapped his forefinger against her temple like he was calling her an idiot for thinking too much.
" You are misunderstanding me, woman," he said with apparent ease. " I am an artist, one who likes to draw the pain of others on the canvas, the terror, the loss of hope in their eyes, they all are very fascinating to me. So, how about you give that to me? Your pale skin, those blues covered with fear and that silver hair dancing behind you wildly when you are falling for your doom would definitely give me a masterpiece."
" Are you saying that I should die such that you will be able to make your masterpiece, are you serious?"
" Don't worry I won't let you die, killing you will destroy the perfect piece that I have in my head you see? If you fall into the chasm and break your skull then it will become too gory for me to paint what's more I wouldn't be able to paint the terror in your eyes either. That is why I will save you before you die,"
" You …you are sick," Yin Zhu couldn't help but say, when her sister told her that the second young master of the family liked to inflict pain she was thinking about whips and nails, she wasn't expecting this!
