Chapter 2797: Chapter 2797: Eager to Return Home (Part 3)

"You Jia bastard, you—" Yang Baifu glared, but the next second his mouth was blocked.

After a long while, Miss Jia smacked her lips and let go: "Oh my, husband, your lips are pretty soft."

Yang Baifu rolled his eyes. He’d almost suffocated just now, and the bristles on that woman’s upper lip were like a brush, stabbing him to death. What a pity that even so, he still hadn’t managed to pass out.

"One more." Miss Jia was hooked now.

Yang Baifu had only one thought left: Heaven, send a bolt of lightning and kill me.

Maybe the drug was starting to kick in, because Yang Baifu was literally kissed into a blaze; his body was burning up, and Little Yang Baifu slowly began to rise.

"See? Still this cute." Miss Jia was instantly delighted, then in a few quick moves stripped off her own clothes. "Husband, here I come..."

Yang Baifu didn’t want to, but his body wouldn’t obey him. And to avoid being crushed to death or smothered, in the end he chose to take the initiative.

And in the days that followed, Yang Baifu began a life worse than a beast of burden. Every day he was drained dry by Jia Dasheng in every way imaginable; if he ever showed the slightest reluctance, he’d be force-fed a Medicine Pill.

In the end he could only resign himself, because if he kept taking those pills, he figured he could go serve in the palace as a eunuch.

Besides, he’d always had a bit of wishful thinking in his heart, assuming Yang Ruxin’s Itchy Pill was just to scare him. But when, a month later, the drug finally took effect and his whole body started itching, he realized that girl hadn’t been bluffing at all. A few days after that, when Yang Baifu had scratched himself until his body was a bloody mess, the Jia Family finally noticed he seemed to have some incurable disease. Right about then, they discovered Miss Jia was pregnant, so they kicked the blood-smeared Yang Baifu out of the house. Only at this point did Yang Baifu finally have no choice but to go back and turn himself in.

Of course, that’s all after the fact.

After leaving the Jia Family, Yang Ruxin went back to the inn, had a good sleep, and at first light the next morning set out again. Yang Baifu’s matter was just something she took care of in passing; it wasn’t nearly enough to delay her.

"Madam, will he really go turn himself in?" Chai Qin was still a bit worried.

"Relax, he definitely will." Yang Ruxin answered while spurring her horse into a gallop. "He’s terrified of dying."

"Sigh!" Chai Qin let out a sigh. "How does a family end up like that?" She was sighing over Yang Ruxin, and also over the earlier Gu Family.

"Even fingers aren’t all the same length."

"I’m just sighing." Chai Qin laughed. "But everyone in our family is really good."

"Of course." Mentioning her family made Yang Ruxin smile as well. "Let’s hurry, I miss the little beans."

Galloping all the way, the three of them didn’t delay in the slightest after that.

"Once we get past that patch of woods ahead, it’ll be Changhuai State’s territory." Yang Xiong pointed forward with a smile. "Should we rest a bit? There’s a village over there."

"It’s still early. We’ll find a village on the Changhuai State side to stay in." Yang Ruxin shook her head, eager to get home.

But before they even entered the woods, Xiaohei, who’d been following in the air, suddenly flew back, dove down, and landed on the head of Yang Ruxin’s mount.

"There are people up ahead." Yang Ruxin quickly reined in her horse.

Very soon, the sounds of fighting came from the woods ahead. Not long after, a man covered in blood burst out, but he was quickly surrounded by the men chasing behind him, every move aimed to kill.
