Little Miss Devil: The President's Mischievous Wife
chapter-429

"Fu Rui, Jiao Jiao, your group has successfully passed the test I've given to you. Starting today, the five of you will serve and follow me. Betrayal means death; abandoning me will be worse than death. I'm sure you understand what this means." Lu Xinyi regarded her new bodyguards with a stern expression on her face.

Since they passed the test and mission she'd set for them, Shen Yi would spare their lives; but they'd have to serve under Lu Xinyi now.

The two lowered their heads and paid respects to Lu Xinyi. Their lives were now in her hands.

"Thank you, Miss Lu, for accepting the five of us," Jiao Jiao said.

"All of you will be compensated for fulfilling your first mission. Fu Rui will be my personal bodyguard from now on. Jiao Jiao, you'll become my personal attendant. As for Fu Shuren and Zhang Qing, the two of them will stay here at my mother's villa to protect Qiushan from the Sun and Xi Yunchuan's people."

"What about the boy?" Shen Yi released his wife and let her sit on his lap.

"Of course, I've already given a thought about it." She assured him, "Qiao He, find an expert that could train Zhang Sheng to hone his skills. In the future, the Shen family might be able to use him."

"Madam, I'll assure you, the boy will be in good hands," Qiao He responded. He already had someone in mind.

He didn't think that their Young Madam planned to raise a hacker or a computer expert that would only serve the Shen family. At the moment, the Shen family had to seek out other hackers' services when the service was needed. The best experts in the capital worked under the Liu family. Raising an expert would surely be a valuable asset for the Shen family.

"Good." Lu Xinyi nodded, pleased with Qiao He's answer. "You better make sure Zhang Sheng knows why he cannot visit his sister in here. Until I deal with Xi Yunchuan, Fu Shuren and Zhang Qing should look after Qiushan."

They waited for almost an hour until the doctor stepped out of Sun Qiushan's room and told them his diagnosis. The doctor was a middle-aged man; his appearance was one with professional aura.

"Madam Shen, Miss Sun's pregnancy isn't good. I suggest that you transfer her to the hospital where she could receive proper treatments." He pushed up the bridge of his glasses with his finger. "Miss Sun is severely malnourished, and I assume that the fetus in her womb suffers the same. Old and new bruises are all over her body…"

At these words, Lu Xinyi's jaws tightened. Sun Qiushan had suffered for too long. She swore in her heart that the bastard would pay the price heavily.

"And scars that she might have gotten were due to burns from cigarettes. Her fingernails were also taken out from each finger. There are also bite marks on her legs and arms."

"Bite marks?" Lu Xinyi frowned.

"Madam Shen, it seemed like Miss Sun has been mauled by wild animals before," the doctor bluntly said.

Cold blood ran through Lu Xinyi's veins. It was singing to see some warm blood spill… the bastard's blood spill.

Shen Yi held her hand. This wasn't new to him. The torture methods were usually used to deal with spies they caught within the Shen Group, but it was the first time he heard that an innocent woman like Sun Qiushan had been subjected to the same torture method.

A normal person would rather choose to die than to be tortured repeatedly. It was no wonder why her mother had run away from her family. Just thinking that she shared the same blood with them was enough to piss Lu Xinyi off.

"I also suspect that Miss Sun has some bone fractures due to the persistent pain she's in. I'm afraid she'll go into premature labor anytime soon, and her body might not be able to endure it."

Lu Xinyi closed her eyes, trying to force herself to calm down and deal with this matter with a clear mind. First things first, she needed to make sure Sun Qiushan's safe before she could deal with Sun Qiyan and Xi Yunchuan.

The doctor excused himself and was escorted by Shen Yi's men back to the city.

Meanwhile, Lu Xinyi took a stroll on the garden alone; but her husband followed shortly. She cupped her chin and thought of the options available for her. If they dared to bring Sun Qiushan back to the city, someone would surely tip off the Xi and the Sun families about her whereabouts.

'Damn you, Sun Qiyan! Xi Yunchuan!' Lu Xinyi thought.

What should she do now? It wouldn't be easy to bring Sun Qiushan back to the city, but she also needed to receive proper care.

"Darling, do you think we can bring a medical team here to look after Qiushan without taking their attention?" she asked Shen Yi.

Shen Yi hummed. Actually, he'd also been thinking to ask his mother's assistance this time. Zhang Jingwei could easily form a medical team, but he wasn't sure if she was willing to help a Sun family member.

"Why don't you call Mom and convince her to send a medical team here? If I were the one to call her, I'm not sure if she'll agree to help your cousin." Shen Yi passed his phone to his wife.

Lu Xinyi received it and unlocked the screen. She was quite surprised to see her photo as his wallpaper. Checking his contact list, she dialed her mother-in-law's number. Zhang Jingwei picked up the call after three rings.

"Wow, this is new. My eldest son has finally remembered to check up on his mom?" Zhang Jingwei's voice could be heard from the other line.

Lu Xinyi laughed and glanced at her husband. Just when was the last time he gave a call to his mother?

"Mom, it's me. I'll remind Yi to give you a call from now on." Lu Xinyi smiled even though she knew that her mother-in-law wouldn't be able to see it.

"Xin'er?!" Zhang Jingwei exclaimed.

What Lu Xinyi heard next were the sound of falling objects and Zhang Jingwei's low cursing. Was she really took her by surprise with her phone call?

"Mom, is everything alright?" Lu Xinyi pursed her lips, hoping that her mother-in-law would understand why she was asking a favor for Sun Qiushan.

"Yes, dear! Give me a moment!"
