Chapter 1033: Chapter 1038: Didn’t Hit You Again
After about a dozen lashes, Duo’er finally stopped her, "Don’t beat him to death, having officials from the Guang House come by would be troublesome."
Lu Kejun wielded considerable strength, and her whip was used with great agility and precision.
By now, Zhu Jianzhi’s body was certainly ripped open, surely taking no less than a month to heal properly; this lesson wouldn’t be light for Zhu Jianzhi.
"I’d like to see which Guang House official dares to come after me!"
Lu Kejun said dismissively.
With the protection of Red Cloud Villa, even if she killed a dozen worthless men, no one would dare touch a hair on her head!
Qiao Duo’er lowered her voice, "But I heard from the third brother that Second Brother Luo seems to prefer gentle and quiet women." 𝒏𝒐𝙫𝙥𝙪𝙗.𝒄𝙤𝙢
"My father told me not to cause trouble when I’m out and about, I’ll let you off this time, but if I ever find out you’re harassing young women again, I’ll beat you until you’re paralyzed from the waist down!"
Lu Kejun glared at Zhu Jianzhi.
Anyway, she would never admit that it was Qiao Duo’er’s words that made her stop.
She could never fall for a rogue who peeped at women bathing; she was scouring the world for Luo Qingfeng only to kill him.
Only when those who had taken liberties with her were dead, would she not be at a loss.
Zhu Jianzhi scrambled away, without a doubt, experiencing the most terrifying day of his life.
He had no chance of escaping against someone of such noble birth and such skill.
After getting out, Zhu Jianzhi looked at his wounds and finally believed what his parents had told him.
Almond’s physiognomy foretold meager blessings; marrying her would affect the fortune of his entire family, and his wounded body was the best evidence of that.
From now on, it would be better to stay away from her, poor as she was, at least she was alive.
After driving off Zhu Jianzhi, Qing Xin looked at Lu Kejun with admiration, "You and your whip are both amazing!"
"This is a special whip my father gave me, the barbs are coated with poison; in a couple of days, poison sores will break out on his face, and it will take a month before they start to heal. If they accidentally break open, they will leave scars."
Lu Kejun caressed her beloved whip; she had been training in martial arts since she was four years old, and this whip was her choice weapon.
That Zhu Jianzhi dressed in scholar’s robes will have no future in the officialdom with a scarred face.
After all, a shameless wretch like him becoming an official would only bully the weak and fear the strong, oppressing the common people; it was better to dash his hopes early.
Qiao Duo’er gave a thumbs-up, "Impressive!"
"Beating someone up is really tiring, I need to rest for a while," Lu Kejun yawned.
She had been chasing after Luo Qingfeng for a while and was already exhausted; it would be better to take advantage of this period of waiting for a chance to recover well.
Once she had restored her energy, she would surely catch Luo Qingfeng... to use for her medicinal practices!
But when she looked up, she saw a girl with a face full of tears.
Lu Kejun paused, then said, "You... I didn’t hit you, why are you crying like that?"
She didn’t think she had been too harsh on that man; after all, he was so despicable.
If she hadn’t made it hurt, he probably wouldn’t remember the lesson.
"I’m fine," Almond sobbed.
She hated herself for still feeling pity for Zhu Jianzhi, knowing he was such a despicable person.
After saying that, she quickly ran off, afraid her tears would affect others’ moods.
Lu Kejun looked towards Qiao Duo’er with an innocent expression, "Was I too fierce?"
"No, she’s a girl who values her feelings, it’s just taking her a while to come to terms with it."
Lu Kejun then patted her chest, relieved it wasn’t her problem, and decided she should just go to sleep.
