Chapter 608: You Will Cry and Beg to Tell Me Everything
Chapter 608: You Will Cry and Beg to Tell Me Everything
Every day, Hou Chuan repeats these words several times to Qin Ruan.
Everyone around her keeps reminding her that she can't be restless while pregnant and needs to take care of the child in her belly.
Though she worries about the safety of her unborn baby, it's not as fragile as a porcelain doll.
Being constantly scrutinized in her actions and behaviors puts Qin Ruan in a delicate mood.
"I understand," Qin Ruan responds coldly and continues walking.
Hou Chuan steps forward again to stop her and says, "Madam, let me handle this."
Knowing that Qin Ruan wants to see the faces of the three men, he approaches them first.
Hou Chuan roughly removes the black hoods from their heads, revealing three pale and unhealthy-looking faces.
Qin Ruan gazes at the three men, eventually locking her eyes on the man kneeling on the left.
He appears to be the most harmless among them.
With ordinary features and a weak aura, he doesn't seem to fit in with the other two ferocious criminals kneeling there.
Qin Ruan senses an indescribable sense of incongruity about him.
Standing beside the man, Hou Chuan's expression turns exceptionally serious.
His eyes blaze with anger, and a chilling resentment radiates from him.
Without a doubt, this seemingly average and unremarkable man is the dangerous individual behind the attempt to assassinate Hou Yirong.
Qin Ruan chuckles lightly, a mocking expression on her face. "Is it him?"
"Yes, Madam," Hou Chuan confirms, his muscles tensing and his eyes fixed on A158, who looks just like an ordinary person.
That face is highly deceptive, making it his most advantageous disguise.
Otherwise, five of Hou Chuan's brothers wouldn't have fallen victim to him.
Of course, A158 possesses considerable abilities himself.
Qin Ruan signals Lin Hao to come forward, and he promptly approaches her.
She extends her hand to Lin Hao, who hands over the detailed information about the three men that the Judicial Hall had brought.
Qin Ruan smiles, her charm and allure captivating, but the smile doesn't reach her eyes.
She reviews the information, finally confirming that there are no traces of A158's identity.
She bites her lip and points her delicate jade finger at A158, saying, "Then let's start with him."
With her words, Qin Ruan determines A158's fate.
Hou Chuan has countless thoughts in his heart, but he dares not intervene at this moment.
Qin Ruan had no intention of giving up the interrogation today, so he can only go about his duties and present A158 before her.
Qin Ruan closes the information in her hand and teases Hou Chuan, "There is no record of any torture involving him in the files. Just tell me directly, what do you want to find out from him?"
Hou Chuan throws the man to the ground, a glint of bitterness in his eyes, and says in a low voice, "Madam, this man is very tight-lipped. The Punishment Hall has tried various torture methods for months, but they couldn't make him talk."
"So, he's tough?" Qin Ruan's gaze flickers as she scrutinizes A158, who is still kneeling on the ground.
The Punishment Hall has many difficult cases, but this one seems to be the most challenging.
Huo Chuan clenches his lips, seemingly struggling to express something.
On the other hand, A158 raises his head abruptly.
He doesn't have the ordinary and honest look, but his eagle-like eyes lock onto Qin Ruan with contempt, disdain, and evident mockery.
Qin Ruan doesn't think she said anything wrong, but A158's expression suggests that he really isn't afraid of pain, and he seems proud of it.
Seeing his arrogance annoys her, and she desires to witness him beg for mercy on his knees.
Qin Ruan tuts softly.
She feels that she's becoming increasingly cold-blooded these days, as she can't help but want to see someone in a miserable state.
Her gaze lowers slightly, focusing on A158's legs and feet, restrained by chains.
There's also a sophisticated electronic ring around his neck, looking high-tech.
Qin Ruan points at the electronic ring on A158's neck and asks Huo Chuan, "What is that?"
Hou Chuan explains that anyone imprisoned in the Purse Hall wears an anti-suicide sensor on their neck. If they attempt suicide, the sensor injects anesthesia to prevent them from succeeding.
Qin Ruan finds it the first time she hears about such a precautionary device and looks curiously at the compact sensor.
A158 meets Qin Ruan's gaze and grimaces in displeasure.
If he could move, he would definitely attack her and tear her apart.
Seeing his change from the previous submissive demeanor, Qin Ruan couldn't help but scoff, "An eagle with broken wings is equivalent to being abandoned by nature. And you're even worse than an eagle. If you want to die, you better behave and grovel properly. Who knows, the master might show mercy and let you have a quick death."
Her words are ruthless, hitting A158 hard.
He gradually loses his arrogance, staring coldly at Qin Ruan.
"Little girl, don't waste your time trying to get anything out of me. I won't tell you a single word," A158 says with a hoarse, unpleasant voice.
Qin Ruan smiles, a touch of icy coldness in her eyes. "So confident?"
A158 smirks wickedly, "Call me 'daddy,' and maybe I'll consider telling you something."
His eerie smile makes his ordinary features look disgusting.
Qin Ruan's beautiful face is shrouded in frost.
She slightly opens her red lips and says coldly, "You'll beg and cry, telling me everything."
A158 bursts into mocking laughter, and the sound is full of derision.
After laughing, A158 fixes his eerie gaze on Qin Ruan, especially her slightly swollen belly, and licks his lips.
In his coarse voice, he speaks again, "Little girl, I see you have some looks. If you serve me well, I might tell you something."
The others, including Hou Chuan and Lin Hao, glare at A158 like sharp blades.
Suddenly, a slender figure flashes by.
"Smack! Smack!"
A158 is faced with a thin and weak woman who rushes over and fiercely slaps him.
"Smack! Smack! Smack!"
With just a glimpse of her back, Qin Ruan and Hou Chuan recognize her as Hou Zhi, who had recovered from a serious illness.
She showed quite the skill when she rushed over.
As she continues to strike A158's face, it swells up significantly.
Hou Zhi, though still not stopping, is soon stopped by Hou Chuan.
"Enough, Madam will be interrogating him later. Don't tire him out and prevent him from speaking," Hou Chuan intervenes.
Hou Zhi turns around and bows to Qin Ruan, "Madam, I overstepped."
Qin Ruan appraises Hou Zhi and smiles genuinely, "It seems you have recovered quite well. Why are you here?"
Huo Zhi respectfully replies, "Master knew about the situation here and sent us to protect Madam."
Hearing that Hou Yunjiao knew about the sudden change here, Qin Ruan's expression slightly changes, revealing contemplation.
From her previous conversation with Hou Chuan and the dark guards from the Punishment Hall, she learned some information.
The three people supposed to be brought here were all harmless, with no dangerous factors.
Some mistake must have occurred for a highly dangerous individual like A158 to end up here.
Does this mean that Hou Yunjiao deliberately arranged all this?
A158 spits out some blood.
With no raised eyebrows or fierce expressions, he calmly stares at Hou Zhi.
"I will kill you."
It's a simple statement, without much emotional fluctuation in his voice.
Upon hearing this, Qin Ruan's calm expression instantly freezes, turning dark and terrifying.
Her cold and intense gaze seems capable of devouring everything, sending chills down one's spine.
Qin Ruan walks up to A158, grabs his hair with her bare hands, and forces him to look up.
