Don't be tempted, sir

"Ah..." A scream broke the cold winter night. Liu Xueyin's right hand was chopped off. He knelt down and begged for mercy: "Please spare my life, please spare my life."

The man in black looked down and said, "Don't mess with the wrong people! If it happens again, I'm afraid you'll lose your life!"

Liu Xueyin was in so much pain that he finally fainted at the door of Liu's mansion.

Shen Yining looked through the flower arrangement book every day, carefully learning many techniques and combinations, and all the flower arrangements in the Shen Mansion were changed. She seemed not to be bothered by what happened that night, and smiled gently every day. Even Xingyue praised: "Miss, smile more, it's beautiful!"

Shen's parents didn't know about the decree, they just thought she had moved on and let it go. Plus, they were happy to be grandparents, so they didn't notice anything was wrong with her.

Shen Yining stayed up like this every night, and the flower arrangement book was almost torn apart. She carefully trimmed the flowers one by one, and arranged the bottles one by one carefully according to the instructions in the book. Sometimes she hurt her hands but didn't even feel the pain.

She just felt that she should find her hobbies and direction as soon as possible, but she couldn't find them, and the light in her heart seemed to be extinguished. Every night she told herself that she could find the light, and she didn't have to rely on others to light it.

"I can do it, just like this flower, it just needs some pruning! It can survive even with its roots or in a vase."

Old Madam Shen really liked winter plums, but they were a little hard to find. Shen Yining got up early and went out to the flower market to look for them. Today, by chance, they were sold at the end of the alley in the flower market. When she was walking back from buying them, she was knocked unconscious and dragged into the alley. There were so many people and flowers that the servant in front of her didn't notice them. The servant and the young lady behind her disappeared. She walked out of the flower market and hurried back to look for them, but she didn't see them either. She had to hurry back to report.

Shen Yining was put in a cart carrying hay and taken out of the city gate. He woke up in a carriage with his hands and feet tied and a cloth stuffed in his mouth. He looked at the person sitting opposite him sobbing and struggling.

Sitting opposite was an old man, who smiled kindly: "General Shen's daughter! Haha, don't be afraid, don't be afraid, I just want to marry into the Shen family."

Shen Yining frowned as he didn't understand. The old man continued, "Liu Xueyin is my only son. Not long ago, a gangster cut off his right hand. I reported the case to the police but to no avail. I heard that my son fell in love with you, so he threatened his life."

The old man sighed when he said this, and Shen Yining frowned even more tightly, struggling to escape.

The old man smiled kindly and dissuaded her: "I have been an official for ten years, but I can do nothing about my son's affairs! Since the government can't give you a result, who is your lover? Tell me!"

Shen Yining struggled and shook his head, trying to explain that it was not him and had nothing to do with him.

The old man was laughing horribly at this moment: "You said you already have a lover, and your parents even arranged a blind date for you. You provoked my son for no reason and that's why he lost an arm! Since you are so unrestrained, I will help you and also fulfill my son's wish."

Shen Yining was scared and knew that struggling was useless, so he could only sit back.

The old man continued, "Even though your father holds a high position, as long as the matter is done, your father will have to admit it even if he doesn't want to!"

Shen Yining looked at the kind yet scary man in front of him, then looked around the carriage and saw nothing. He sat there helplessly, waiting to see if there would be a chance to escape.

The old man got off the carriage halfway, and Shen Yining was forced to smell the handkerchief stained with sleeping pills, while the carriage continued to move in the mountains.

Shen Rushan went to the palace to ask His Majesty to order the city gates to be closed. He searched the whole city for his daughter but couldn't find her. Shen Changjun led his troops out of the city to look for her but couldn't find her either. It was as if she had disappeared from the face of the earth.

Shen Yining didn't know how much time had passed, he only remembered being fed water several times every time he woke up, but never eating. The coachman and the carriage were changed again and again, without stopping.

Shen Yining woke up again and banged her head against the carriage. The coachman heard the noise and didn't want to pay attention, so Shen Yining had to bang harder. She was already dizzy from hunger and felt even more dizzy. The coachman was afraid that she would die in the collision and said impatiently: "Girl, don't struggle, it's useless."

Shen Yining was whimpering as he bumped into the car. His head was bleeding. The driver finally opened the door and said, "What's the matter? Don't try to commit suicide. It's useless!"

Shen Yining sobbed and bled, and the driver saw that there was no one in the wilderness, so he took the cloth out of her mouth.

Shen Yining hurriedly said hoarsely: "I want to go to the bathroom, I want to go to the bathroom!"

The driver thought it was too much trouble: "Just pee on me!"

"Please, I just want to go to the bathroom, please."

The driver saw her kneeling in the cart, limp and powerless, thinking that she would not have the strength to escape after not eating for many days. He impatiently loosened the ropes on her feet and said, "Go! Don't even think about running away!"

Being dragged into the bushes, Shen Yining said, "I will definitely not run away. Can you help me untie the rope? I am inconvenient."

The driver impatiently untied her and said, "Just stay here and don't try to slip away!" Then he walked to the tree and waited with his back to her, leaving her too exhausted to run.

Shen Yining observed the surroundings and found it was deserted, so he had to go to the convenience and get on the carriage again: "Please be kind, I am in the carriage and I can't run anyway, can you not tie me up? I can't run away."

"No!" The groom tied his hands and gagged him, but this time he didn't tie his feet.

The carriage was on the road again. There were no windows in the carriage, so one could not see outside. The only way to tell that it was already dark was from the light disappearing from the gaps.

"Master! The black shadow reported that Miss Shen was abducted and is now missing."

Ink dripped from Song Xiaoyuan's pen and spread out on the paper.

He rode his horse quickly to Beijing, and met a black figure with his men halfway. The black figure knelt down and said, "I am guilty, and I hope you will punish me."

"Come and report!"

The black shadow stood up and stepped forward, saying that it was too early that day and that there were several servants following them. They did not expect anything to happen in the flower market and were careless for a moment. Afterwards, no trace of him was found and the Shen family had no results either.

"But I have already arrested Liu En. It must be this old villain who did it. I have tortured him, but he refused to tell me the truth."

Song Xiaoyuan dismounted, and the shadow pulled Liu En off the horse's back. His head was covered by a black cloth, and the shadow pulled it off. Liu En saw the person in front of him kneeling down and begging for help.

"Master Song, Master Song, please save me! This man has tied me up! He is torturing me to death!"

Song Xiaoyuan's eyes were colder than when he was in the court. The red moon passed through Liu En's left shoulder and asked coldly, "Where is she?"

Although Liu En had suffered some torture, he could not stand such direct criticism. He trembled in pain and said, "What is Lord Song talking about?"

Song Xiaoyuan drew his sword, and Liu En lowered his head in pain. The blood-stained Chiyue lifted Liu En's chin and asked impatiently word by word: "Where is she?" Then the tip of the sword cut through Liu En's jaw little by little and was about to pierce his throat.

Liu En was afraid to speak: "Miss Shen? Is Mr. Song talking about Miss Shen?"

Song Xiaoyuan's eyes were silent: "I don't like repetition"

Liu En was frightened by the look on his face: "I'll tell you, I'm on the way to Qiannan."

Song Xiaoyuan put down his sword and asked: "Where is Qiannan?"

"I have a mansion in Tangxiang, Qiannan. I am going there now."

"What's your name?"

"Master Song, can you please let my son go?"

"What's your name?" Song Xiaoyuan didn't want to waste too much time. The red moon passed through Liu En's hair, and Liu En was startled: "Cong Zhong! Cong Zhong Mansion."

Song Xiaoyuan mounted his horse and rushed to Qiannan. Liu En knelt down and murmured, "It was Song Xiaoyuan! I never expected it to be Song Xiaoyuan!"

Ah Wu grabbed Liu En from the ground and said, "If anything happens to Miss Shen, your entire Liu family will be in trouble!"

Liu En was unwilling to give in: "Isn't Song Xiaoyuan ignorant of love? How could he be the lover of the girl from the Shen family!"

Ah Wu didn't want to waste time talking to him. He was about to complete his mission and return to Beijing. Now he was in trouble! He didn't know if he could catch Zhang Wei later. "Let's go, Sir Liu!"
