After Giving Way To My Husband’s Sweetheart

Chapter 82 Send her to the dungeon

 “You did it, right?”

It was still dark when a sudden sound in the room startled Love. She followed the sound and saw Sima Chao standing at the head of her bed.

 “Did you do it?”

Although Love couldn't see his expression clearly in the darkness, he could hear the suppressed anger in his tone.

Love stroked her chest and forced herself to suppress the fear caused by the nightmare. She took the clothes on the bedside and put them on her body. She asked, "It's raining outside, isn't it?"

 “What am I asking you?”

Sima Chao grabbed her in front of him. Out of anger, he clamped her with great force, which was so painful that Love couldn't help but gasp.

I don’t know how many floors this dungeon has. Obviously this is not the bottom, because from the thick walls around it, creepy screams can be faintly heard from time to time.

At this point, Love has no way out. Instead of letting those rough people lead her in, she might as well know the truth on her own.

Love couldn't help but shudder. She broke away and asked, "Where are you taking me?"

There were torches burning inside, which were bright and burning to the eyes, and the thick fishy smell rushed in like a heat wave, making it even more oppressive and breathless.

 Lov's heart was clenched, and she subconsciously leaned towards Sima Chao.

Love subconsciously covered her mouth and nose. Because of fear, she couldn't help but slow down her pace. However, Sima Chao did not accommodate her and continued to stride down. She could not see her fingers here, and it all depended on Sima Chao's hands. The torch could light up the way forward. Although Love was afraid, she had to grit her teeth and keep up.

Sima Chao pushed open the door of the cell and said to Love expressionlessly: "This is the best cell in the dungeon. Just go in. The court captain will come for interrogation tomorrow."

 Obviously, it was the screams of prisoners being tortured.

Sima Chao suddenly let go of his hand, and Love stumbled onto the bed. He stood in front of her and asked, "It's understandable that you avenged Luo, but do you know that doing this will harm our Sima family?" How big is it?”

Sima Chao was in a rage. He didn't fully digest Love's words. Only the words "You are not worthy!" reached his ears.

This is the staircase leading to the dungeon. It is pitch black. The further you go, the air becomes more and more congested. After walking for a while, the smell of blood is overwhelming, making people feel nauseous.

She struggled to break away from his grip. When the wrist he held finally relaxed, Love had the strength to speak. She met his gaze and replied calmly: "The Guo family is my enemy. The reason why I killed Guo Xiaotian was of course to avenge my Luo clan. Not only my Luo clan, but the Guo thief has killed so many loyal people, shouldn’t he die?”

When they arrived at the imperial city, Sima Chao took off his cloak, wrapped it around her from head to toe, and forcefully pulled her inside.

 “You don’t deserve it at all!”

 Anyone who enters here can escape unscathed.

There was a mist of rain falling in the sky. It was not yet bright, and the gray and cold wind blew on the face, making it wet and cold.

 A place where felons are imprisoned.

 He stared at her and asked sternly: "Why are you doing this?"

Love didn't hide, she stood in front of him, looking straight at him, her eyes full of anger.

 Lov stood on the same spot, as if his feet were weighing a thousand pounds, and he no longer had the strength to walk in.

 Seventy-nine. One-sixty-nine. Sixty-nine. One-hundred and fifty

It was a small single cell, with blood stains clearly visible on the pitch-black floor. There were only a few handfuls of hay spread in the corners, and rats and ants were crawling on it.

Hearing this, Love laughed. He looked at Sima Chao and replied: "You keep saying that you are deeply in love with me. Let me ask you, are you willing to sacrifice your future for me?"

The Sima family wants to form an alliance with the Guo family. Now that Guo Xiaotian has died in the Sima family, it is naturally extremely detrimental to the Sima family.

 Why else?

Guo Xiaotian is the enemy who plotted to murder her whole family, doesn’t he know?

When he finally reached the end of the stairs, Sima Chao stopped and skillfully stuck the torch in his hand on the bluestone. He looked back at Love who was following her, and reached out to push open the iron door of the dungeon.

"You are a vicious woman? I treat you so affectionately in vain?"

These words made his head buzz, and his blood rushed to his head, and he subconsciously raised his hand towards her.

Love took off Sima Chao's cloak wrapped around her body, picked up the rain-wet dress, and followed Sima Chao.

Perhaps the dream just now was too real, and Love was still immersed in it. Under Sima Chao's questioning, she subconsciously revealed the harm he had caused her in her previous life.

 What was left to Love was only the coldness mixed with wind and rain.

 You don't need to think about it to know that this is the prison of the inner court.

The real murderer of Guo Xiaotian was caught, and the Sima family naturally no longer had to bear this responsibility. Since she was his woman, the world would probably praise him for his righteousness in annihilating the family. Love stopped struggling and followed him obediently onto the horse. Sima Chao clamped his legs together and the horse galloped towards the imperial city.

Sima Chao showed no mercy. Seeing that she refused to leave, he reached out to grab her and pulled her into a dungeon.

"If you really love me deeply, you should set me right instead of letting others harm me. In fact, in order to take care of Shuangchi, you would not even hesitate to kill your own flesh and blood. That is my child, he You are connected by my blood, yet you are so cruel and yet you keep saying that you will treat me with affection."

Sima Chao raised his hand in the air, but did not fall down. He grabbed Love's hand and strode out of the house.

"You are the daughter of the Luo family, aren't you the daughter-in-law of the Sima family? Don't you care at all about the honor and disgrace of our Sima family?"

Love followed him, winding all the way to a dark place. Sima Chao took out the key and opened a heavy iron door. He turned back and looked at her coldly and said, "Go in, this is You brought it on yourself, you can’t blame anyone else.”

Love glanced at Sima Chao, but Sima Chao didn't look at her. He held the torch and stepped down the narrow steps.

Seeing that Love was silent, Sima Chao pulled her up again, stared at her and said angrily: "Also, when you used this method to deal with Guo Xiaotian, did you ever consider my safety? At that time, I was sitting next to her. , aren’t you afraid that I will also inhale that poison?”

“You just tell the truth about killing Guo Xiaotian.”

He looked at Love, his eyes were cold, and his tone was without any warmth: "I advise you to confess truthfully. Below here is the torture room, and you cannot bear those torture instruments."
