Chapter 37 Another Heir

From the bed curtains nearby came Chen Meixi's agonized screams.

Lin Zhi found it quite chilling to listen to and really had no idea how those men managed to remain so composed and indifferent.

Lin Zhi also confirmed once again that Ji Liancheng was not to be trifled with. This man was too petty, too bent on settling scores.

But she had, after all, complied with their wishes. She shouldn't be considered as having offended him, right?

Comforting herself, Lin Zhi didn't realize how the time passed, and before she knew it, dawn had broken...

Chen Meixi had been in torment all night and had no strength left by this time. Even without seeing her, one could tell she was half-dead.

Suddenly, Lin Zhi stood up and said, "Let me check on her condition."

Ji Liancheng did not look up, nor did he reply. Lin Zhi ignored him, lifted the bed curtain, and walked in, a strong smell of blood hitting her nose.

Chen Meixi had lost a lot of blood, her face pale, and her body covered in sweat.
