Chapter 520: It’s Just a Snap of the Fingers for You
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Looking at the woman’s terrified expression and hearing her pitiful pleas, anyone would imagine a violent and sadistic husband and a pitiful wife. If it was someone with a bad temper or a strong sense of sympathy, they would have already gone up to the woman and scolded the man for her. They would have thrown him into the mountains to feed the wolves. However, Du Yue did not have much sympathy. She just looked at the woman in front of her coldly. After the woman finished her one-man show, Du Yue slowly stood up and raised her eyebrows at the woman. “Done acting?”
The woman forced a smile. “Do you think I’m lying to you? What right do you have to say that? Look at the injuries on my arms. They were all caused by him using his belt on me. 1 have the same wounds on my stomach and legs. There’s no spot on my body that’s unharmed.”
As the woman spoke, she lifted her clothes up. Under the light of the flashlight, Du Yue could see clearly that the woman’s thin arm, which seemed fragile enough to be broken by the wind at any time, was covered with old and new wounds. In addition to the wounds caused by the belt, Du Yue even saw a knife wound, a scar caused by an unknown burn, and a purplish-purple mark that might have been caused by pinching.
Her arm alone was covered with all kinds of wounds. Even if Du Yue did not see the other parts of her body, she knew what was going on.
“Do you see these? I’m not acting. Every word I say is true.”
Du Yue raised her eyebrows slightly. “I didn’t say that you were pretending to have been beaten up. But your crazy and trembling appearance just now was completely fake. If I’m not wrong, you want to use this method to gain my sympathy so that I’d help you get rid of this man. That way, you can completely escape his control. Am I right?” Du Yue was too lazy to beat about the bush with her. She had always liked to be straightforward.
The woman stood where she was and listened to Du Yue’s words, the miserable expression on her face disappearing. It was replaced by undisguised hatred. “So what if you guessed right? Do you think a scum who beats women should live in this world?”
Du Yue’s eyes turned cold. “If you think he’s a scum and doesn’t deserve to live in this world, then why don’t you let him go? You could have done it yourself. Why did you drag me, who has nothing to do with you, into this?”
“It’s easy for you to say!” the woman shouted at Du Yue. “Every time 1 try to do it myself, I’ll think of him beating me to death. There were a few times when 1 was distracted and missed the best opportunity. When he woke up again, he would beat me up even more. I had no ability to resist at all. After a long time, 1 didn’t dare to have any other thoughts. I could only obediently stay by his side and endure his rage and beatings every now and then. A person like you who lives a happy life won’t understand the feeling of living for today and not having a tomorrow…”
Du Yue looked at the woman playfully. “I don’t understand what you’re talking about. But you said it yourself. If he finds out that you attacked him, he’ll beat you up even more. Then why do you still want to kill him? Could it be that you think he’ll show mercy to a stranger like me?”
“Of course not!”
The woman did not think and blurted out what she wanted to say. As soon as she said that, she regretted it. How could she say what was on her mind?! However, the words had already been uttered. Du Yue had heard her clearly. It was useless even if she regretted it. Du Yue did not care what the woman was thinking at the moment and took two steps closer. “You know he won’t, but you still want to drag me down?”
The woman did not expect Du Yue to be so aggressive. At this moment, she was already speechless from Du Yue’s interrogation. She simply shouted at Du Yue, “Yes, 1 want you to help me kill him! So what? I’ve been watching you for a long time. You have the ability and courage to kill a piece of trash like him. But what about me? I’m just a weak woman who doesn’t have the strength to even tie up a chicken. Even if I want to kill him, I don’t have the ability! It’s just a snap of the fingers for you, why can’t you help me? We’re both women.. Don’t you have any sympathy?”
