Chapter 2622: No Mercy for Her

Because of her, these last days he’d had to go to the General’s Mansion night after night to explain himself to his wife; after exhausting every means, his wife had finally believed he was innocent.

All the misunderstandings between him and his wife were caused by this foul woman in front of him; Long Rui wanted nothing more than to slap her to death, how could he possibly save her.

If he saved her, he wouldn’t have deliberately framed her in front of Lin Kong, letting them kill each other.

"Brother Rui, Lingling hurts." Gu Lingqiao called out pitifully.

At this moment, she wasn’t faking it—she really was in pain.

You could imagine it: being thrown from the second floor by Lin Kong down into the main hall, that kind of distance would be unbearable for a normal person, let alone for a pregnant woman.

Gu Lingqiao felt a warm flow running down from her thigh; she lowered her head and looked, then suddenly screamed, "Ah... help, I’m bleeding!"

Xuexue stood beside her, glanced at her, and said icily, "Serves you right!"

With her life hanging by a thread, Gu Lingqiao couldn’t care about anything else; dignity and such were all clouds in the wind—holding on to her life was what mattered. So she pleaded bitterly to Xuexue, "Princess Consort Sister, I beg you, save me."

Up till now, Gu Lingqiao still didn’t know that her identity had already been exposed; otherwise, she wouldn’t have the nerve to beg Long Rui and Xuexue to save her.

Xuexue: "I’m not the Guanyin Bodhisattva, go beg her to save you."

Someone who came to harm her—Xuexue had nowhere near the magnanimity to save her.

Seeing the blood on her thigh flowing faster and faster, Gu Lingqiao panicked; she absolutely didn’t want to die from blood loss.

Because of the fall from such a distance, her whole body ached; she couldn’t stand at all, her entire body sprawled on the ground. She crawled forward a few steps, stretched out a blood-soaked hand, and shouted to Xuexue, "Sister, Sister, I beg you, I’m carrying the Prince’s seed in my belly, I beg you, save me."

"Pah, you really have no shame. A vixen spirit like you still has the face to beg my lady to save you? With a hide that thick, why don’t you just ascend to heaven?" Zi Xia, standing to the side, couldn’t help spitting at her.

Xiao Jiu chimed in, "Yeah yeah, with a hide that thick, why don’t you ascend to heaven? Why don’t you ascend to heaven?"

Zi Xia glared at it. "Are you a parrot? Why are you repeating what I say?"

Xiao Jiu: "Are you dumb? I’m hyping you up to scare this girl to death."

Zi Xia gave its tiny body a contemptuous once-over, curled her lip, and said, "With that scrawny little body of yours, I could pinch you to death with one finger. What kind of ’hype’ do you have?"

Xiao Jiu tilted its bird head very seriously. "Zi Xia, at a time like this, can you not start infighting? We need to unite against the outside."

Fine, Xiao Jiu wasn’t wrong; they had to stand together if they wanted to defeat the enemy.

Zi Xia reached out and patted its bird head to show goodwill. "All right, we’ll unite against the outside. Beating this girl to a pulp is no problem."

Gu Lingqiao had never felt this defeated in her life.

Enemies on all sides, her lover turning on her and disowning her, beating her until she was covered in blood, and she didn’t even know if the child in her womb could be saved.

"Brother Rui, save Lingling." Since Xuexue refused to save her, Gu Lingxiu could only turn her target back to Long Rui.

Long Rui and Lin Kong were glaring at each other like tigers eyeing their prey.

"You’re Lingling? At this point you still want to deceive this Prince."

Long Rui’s words were directed at Gu Lingqiao, but his gaze stayed locked on Lin Kong, not daring to relax for even a moment. This Madman, just to escape, had actually risked it and tripled his martial power.

Gu Lingqiao crawled on the ground in agony, leaving a shocking trail of blood behind her. Hearing this, she froze and lifted her head in surprise. "Brother Rui, what... what do you mean?"
