257 Cruelties Suffered

The light in the clustered room started to decrease as evening approached and Shihong poured oil in a lamp and lit it and Xing lost all interest for his story. Xing felt traumatised from the fire in the lamp as it reminded of her helpless state back in her courtyard where she was almost burned by Shihong and Old Rong.

Her heart began to beat erratically and small sweat beads started to form on her forehead. Till now she had thought that she was over that day... That day she lost her everything... Her dowry, her dignity, her womb...

She stabbed Chenglie, She was sent to the gates of hell, she wandered in the Netherworld for seemingly years...

That day... The day she suffered because of this person in front of her calmly lighting a lamp!

Is he doing this just to trigger me? Xing was flustered.

Shouldn't I just kill him and get in with it?
