The stepsister of a peasant family in a book is spoiled by the big brothers

Chapter 284 Metamorphosis

In the unfamiliar room, Qin Huiyin, with her limbs tied, held a fruit knife in her mouth and slowly sharpened the rope that bound her wrists.

The blade was sharp and inevitably cut the skin. Red liquid flowed out and dripped down the wrist, planting plum blossoms on the ground.

There were footsteps coming from the door. Hearing the footsteps, Qin Huiyin quickly hid the fruit knife under the pillow.

She closed her eyes and curled up, just like when she just woke up.

A man stood in front of the bed and looked at her calmly.

If it weren't for the other person's fiery eyes, she wouldn't have noticed that there was someone standing by the bed.

The man reached out his hand to her and stroked her cheek. "You are so beautiful. Girls of this age are the most tender, just like newly grown flowers that haven't bloomed yet. They only need a little nourishment to blossom into a beautiful flower. I, your humble servant, will be the fertile soil that nourishes you and helps you bloom."

Qin Huiyin knew she couldn't pretend to be asleep anymore, or something terrible would happen. She pretended to just wake up and slowly opened her eyes. When she saw a wretched-looking young man, her eyes were filled with fear.

"You...who are you?"

The moment the wretched nobleman saw Qin Huiyin open her eyes, the joy in his eyes became even brighter.

"What beautiful eyes! These losers finally picked out a good one. Compared to those country girls before, this one is simply a fairy."

"Brother, who are you?" Qin Huiyin asked him in an innocent tone, looking at him with ignorant eyes. "Are you playing games with me?"

The wretched nobleman widened his eyes and had a guess in his mind.

However, he was still unwilling to give in and asked, "What did you call me?"

"Brother! There are many brothers in our place who play games with me. Do you want to play games with me too?" Qin Huiyin blinked, "Can I eat cakes after playing games? Other brothers have to give me cakes when they play games with me. If you don't give me cakes, I won't play with you."

"Damn it, what a fool!" The wretched nobleman cursed loudly, strode to the door, and shouted outside, "Who brought her back?"

"It's Li Si and Wang Kui. They just received the reward and should be going out for a drink and fun now." said the servant guarding outside.

"Waste, what a waste." After the wretched nobleman finished cursing, he turned back, pinched Qin Huiyin's chin, and looked at her coldly, "Brother, can I play the clothes-tearing game with you?"

Qin Huiyin nodded repeatedly: "Okay, okay, okay, brother, tear my clothes first, and I will tear your clothes later..."

The wretched nobleman tore Qin Huiyin's clothes apart, looking at her with a vicious look as he did so. If she had shown any abnormality at this moment, he could have easily exposed her disguise. But no, there was only excitement and enthusiasm in those eyes, as if they were really playing some fun game.

"What bad luck, he's actually a fool." The wretched nobleman said, his eyes lingering on Qin Huiyin's delicate face. "But, she's really good-looking. I haven't played a fool before, maybe it feels different."

"Wow... wow..." Qin Huiyin kicked her legs and cried loudly, "You tore my clothes, but I haven't torn yours yet. It's not fair, it's not fair..."

"Shut up." The wretched nobleman threatened coldly. "If you don't shut up, I'll kill you."

"Wow...you are still mean to me...wow..." Qin Huiyin was stunned for a moment, then continued to cry.

The two servants at the door looked at each other.

Listening to the voices inside, a look of gloating appeared in the eyes of the two men.

They had aided the tyrants in their misdeeds for years, periodically capturing a young girl between ten and fifteen for their masters' amusement. Generally, the most enthusiastic of their masters' pursuits lasted a year, while others lasted no more than six months. This time, their prey was handsome, but a fool. I'm afraid this fool will be the first to meet his end.

It was late at night, and many people with torches were gathering quickly on the streets. Song Ruize sat on his horse, listening to his men report on the results of their inquiries and searches.

"She must be in the city," Jiang Qibin said, "but this city is huge, and it would be difficult to find Huiyin's whereabouts in such a short time."

The most important thing is that they have limited connections here, and there is a group of people in the local area who always oppose their brother Ze. I am afraid that they are also interfering in this matter.

"Yinyin has always been intelligent. As long as she's still conscious, she'll definitely find a way to pass on information. If you find anything unusual during the search, head there immediately."

At this time, a signal flare appeared in the air.

Song Ruize looked up at the direction of the flare and said, "This is Chen Yong's signal. It should be the clue to finding my little sister. Everyone follow."

Following the signal flare, they arrived in front of a house half a quarter of an hour later. Thick smoke billowed over the house, but since no one lived nearby, it didn't affect anyone else.

The door was open, so Chen Yong must have led his men in first.

Song Ruize got off the horse and strode in, only to see Chen Yong coming out holding Qin Huiyin, who was wrapped in a thin blanket.

"Brother Ze, sister Huiyin is here."

When Qin Huiyin saw Song Ruize, she burst into tears and reached out to Song Ruize for a hug.

Song Ruize hugged her and looked at Chen Yong: "What's going on in there?"

"Brother Ze, let's take care of Huiyin first. We'll handle this." Chen Yong said angrily, "The fire is too big. There's probably no way to put it out."

After being together for so long, they already had a tacit understanding. Chen Yong didn't say it explicitly, but Song Ruize understood it.

He carried Qin Huiyin out and said to the men who followed him, "You all follow Chen Yong's orders."

Song Ruize carried Qin Huiyin to the nearest inn.

This was not the inn they originally booked, but he couldn't wait any longer and wanted to carefully check if Qin Huiyin was injured and ask her what happened.

When he checked in and carried her to the No. 1 guest room, Qin Huiyin was already asleep.

He stood by the bed, stroking her injured wrist, his eyes full of anger.

He checked her legs again and saw the marks of ligatures as expected.

Qin Huiyin's face looked very bad, her brows were furrowed, and she looked dissatisfied even when she was asleep.

Song Ruize held her hand with one hand, smoothed her frown with the other, and whispered, "Brother is here, don't be afraid, it's okay."

When Qin Huiyin woke up again, she saw Song Ruize sitting on the edge of the bed, leaning against the headboard, and his hand was holding hers, never letting go.

Qin Huiyin withdrew her hand.

As soon as she moved, Song Ruize opened his eyes, which were as sharp as a knife and full of bloodlust.

"Brother..." She was frightened.

Song Ruize suppressed the harsh look in his eyes and softened his voice: "It's not dawn yet, sleep a little longer."
