Chasing You Like a Tenacious Falcon

Chapter 26

Zuo Zichen was so scared that his nose ran and tears streamed down his face. He frantically apologized, "I'm sorry! I'm sorry! I'm sorry!"

Quan Zhisui smiled coldly, "So it really was you..."

As she spoke, she suddenly pushed his head down harder!

"Ahhhh!" Zuo Zichen screamed very cooperatively.

He really felt like he was about to fall!

His whole body was hanging. He kicked his legs wildly in fear, but the more he kicked the more he slipped down.

"I'm sorry! Ahhhhh! I was wrong, I was wrong, I was wrong! I'll never do it again! Please, I'm begging you! Daddy~ Mommy~ Wahhh~~"

Zuo Zichen cried in pain. At this moment he really regretted it. The fear surging from his heart made him willing to give up everything, including his dignity.

The servants in the distance also turned pale with fright. They tried to come forward to save him or dissuade her.

But Quan Zhisui just glanced at them.

Her expression was simply indescribable. She was so calm yet so terrifying!

It was as if her gaze said: Anyone who dares to come, she'll let them hang here too! Hang with Zuo Zichen!

Everyone was forced back by that one look, standing there quietly as chickens.

Zuo Zichen was still yelling, calling out the names of every family member. He frantically called for the servants, grasping at every chance to beg for help.

"Even if I was gutsier, I wouldn't dare kill anyone! I just, just wanted to find someone to teach her a lesson..." Zuo Zichen cried again.

Quan Zhisui sneered, "You wanted to teach me a lesson?"

Zuo Zichen wailed again, "I'll never do it again! I really won't do it again! I was wrong! I really, really, really was wrong!"

Quan Zhisui asked coldly, "Were you planning to put me in the hospital with your lesson?"

"No, no, no! I didn't... I, I, wahhhh!" Zuo Zichen knew his excuses were useless. He collapsed again, desperately apologizing and bawling, crying for his parents.

Quan Zhisui reminded him, "Keep your voice down. No one's home tonight. You can yell until you're hoarse and it's useless."

As for the servants, they were just working for money. How could they truly care about the life and death of the unruly young master?

Most hoped to resolve this with the least fuss.

They would report it to the police afterwards at most.

The wealthy care about face!

They avoid big scandals until the critical moment. So it hadn't reached that point yet.

Besides, Zuo Zichen wasn't dead. Quan Zhisui hadn't even hit him, just scared him.

Zuo Zichen suddenly quieted. At this moment he regretted it so much he wished he was dead!

He had specially asked about his parents' schedule today, and arranged for his grandparents to be busy all evening before staying overnight at the villa next door. It was so that if Quan Zhisui was hospitalized after the beating, with no one home to sign documents, she would suffer more.

Who knew he would be the one suffering!

Quan Zhisui left Zuo Zichen hanging on the rooftop for half an hour, repeatedly tormenting and scaring him until his spirit was completely crushed. Only then did she withdraw her hand and let him down.

As soon as he came down, Zuo Zichen collapsed limply on the ground, drenched in sweat. His eyes were swollen from crying, and his legs shook so hard he couldn't stand up.

Quan Zhisui brushed her hands casually as if nothing had happened, then started arranging tasks: "Aunt Gu."

Gu Lan immediately walked out from the crowd: "I'm here, young miss."

Quan Zhisui: "Clean up Zuo Zichen's room thoroughly. Have someone fix the door."

Gu Lan nodded profusely: "Will do right away!"

Quan Zhisui looked to Ma Xinwei: "Uncle Ma, please make some more snacks. I used up a lot of energy today and want to eat another meal."

Ma Xinwei immediately rolled up his sleeves and headed downstairs: "Young miss! Received!"

"Brother Zhao," Quan Zhisui called the driver.

Zhao Lin jerked in alert and responded: "Here!"

At the same time, he rejoiced in his heart. Working as a driver at the Zuo house for so many years, this was the first time someone called him brother!

Quan Zhisui nodded and said, "Please keep watch tonight and immediately inform me of any news."

She was referring to the four missing Zuo family members, of course. The driver would know their schedule easiest.

"Yes!" Zhao Lin stood tall and responded proudly.

Next, Quan Zhisui's piercing gaze swept over the others: "Keep silent about this. Understood?"

Everyone nodded collectively, nodding vigorously. Some even raised their hands to swear they wouldn't dare have any doubts.

Finally, Quan Zhisui smiled at Zuo Zichen: "You didn't think it was over, did you?"

Thud—

Zuo Zichen's heart sank to the bottom. What more was she going to do to him?

Quan Zhisui turned and walked downstairs, then suddenly glanced back at him: "Follow me. Do you want me to drag you down the stairs?"

Zuo Zichen immediately stumbled after her, staying one step behind. He was terrified now, even breathing cautiously.

Also, his whole body hurt from being knocked on the stairs and banging on the balcony. There were bruises all over his skin, and his face too.

Especially his scalp. It really hurt!

He felt like his hair had been pulled out!

The Zuo house had an elevator but Quan Zhisui was too lazy to take it. She leisurely walked down the stairs one step at a time.

Behind her, Zuo Zichen was still crying, but didn't dare sob too loudly. He just occasionally wiped away some tears secretly. His eyes really hurt too, as if he had cut his eyelid.

Back on the second floor in Zuo Zichen's room.

Quan Zhisui walked straight to the sofa and sat in the middle.

Zuo Zichen didn't even dare sit. He just stood there, covered all over in injuries, his face bruised and swollen, from hitting the stairs or scraping on the balcony.

The servants quickly cleaned up, and the door was fixed, restored as much as possible.

After everything was tidied up, Gu Lan brought in a tray and placed a cup of tea on the coffee table in front of Quan Zhisui: "Have some tea, young miss, to calm yourself."

She didn't pour tea for Zuo Zichen, afraid Quan Zhisui would flare up and throw it at him directly.

Zuo Zichen didn't dare ask for hot tea now. He stood beside them not even daring to breathe loudly, desperately minimizing his presence.

Quan Zhisui picked up the teacup. Then she spoke:

"Kneel."

Gu Lan's eyes widened in shock. She quickly glanced at Zuo Zichen before leaving the room and closing the door.

Outside, the cleaning aunties stared wide-eyed at each other, just as shocked as Gu Lan.

They had all heard it. The young miss actually made the young master kneel!

No wonder she wanted the chef to make another meal. This wasn't over yet, who knew how late it would go.
