Chapter 1173: 1173
The scar-faced man smiled and continued . “Young chap, you sure have a backbone despite your young age!”
In his heart, he admired this lad for not giving in despite all the suffering he had to endure .
“Behave, okay? Don’t move about!”
He warned him before releasing the chains binding the latter’s hands .
With his hands released, Mu Yichen collapsed to the floor, completely beaten . Forget about his strength to fight back, his hands were so numb that he could not feel or even lift them up .
Having been chained for such a long time, the skin on his wrists broke . They were badly mangled and mutilated .
The scar-faced man hefted him up and, opening the cell, threw him inside gently .
Yun Shishi was stunned . It seemed that this man was no longer making things difficult for them .
“You…”
“Shut up! Behave!”
The scar-faced man walked over and released the manacles from one of her hands .
The moment the manacles were removed, she hurriedly brought her son to her embrace .
She lowered her head to look at him . Her child was barely breathing, almost a if he were on the brink of death .
After four hours of being tortured, he no longer had the strength to even hug his mommy in his current state .
He could only bury his face slightly in her embrace as he spoke in a faint voice . “Mommy…”
“Mommy is here; mommy is here…”
His eyelids drooped and he mumbled sadly, “Yichen didn’t manage to protect mommy . I’m sorry… so sorry, mommy…”
Hearing his words, she felt as if her heart had been punctured . Heartbroken, her trembling hands hugged him tighter as tears began to drip down the boy’s face .
The boy raised his gaze and tried to reach out to wipe his mother’s tears . He struggled for a while, but it proved to be futile as he could not exert even an ounce of strength .
He choked on his sobs weakly, as though something were stuck in his throat . “Mommy, please don’t cry, okay?”
Her tears continued to fall on his face . The misery he felt now was even more painful than if he had been whipped a hundred times .
His pleas only made her more heartbroken .
Why was he apologizing to her?
She should be the one feeling remorse .
She should be the one apologizing to him!
She had implicated him .
Her implication of this child caused him to go through such a grave ordeal .
Her heart hurt so much that it was almost in shreds . She hugged him tightly as her unabated tears fell from her eyes in devastation .
The boy raised his quivering right hand and hugged her waist, but he no longer had the strength to utter another word .
The scar-faced man locked the cell and stood by the door, watching the scene unfold in front of him . His face was one of nonchalance, but his heart undulated violently .
Anyone with a heart would be moved by what he saw .
He refused to be honest, but his heart was secretly aching because of this moving scene .
It was not because of anything else .
He was a father to a girl, too, so his heart undoubtedly hurt!
The woman lowered her head, only to see the scabbing wounds all over her son’s body . This body was truly littered with cuts and bruises .
There was not an unharmed spot on his body .
Perhaps, because his body was covered in blood, she could not tell clearly the number of wounds on his body .
The boy’s face had already been soaked in cold sweat, and his eyes were stained with blood and sweat . Ultimately, it was a horrendous sight .
Her lips trembled every time she saw a wound on his body . She felt that her heart being torn apart and she could barely breathe!
“Do you have any medicine there?”
She raised her head and looked at the scar-faced man . She relinquished her pride and asked piteously, “Can you please give me some? His wounds are deep; if they aren’t treated in time, they can become inflamed!”
