Chapter 690 - 681: Hurry and Save Lives
Everyone had just pitied and lamented for Concubine Du when they discovered that the second young master’s hand, bleeding profusely, was missing a finger. The finger he had lost was lying quietly on the desk beside him.
No wonder he had screamed so loudly earlier; Concubine Du, having failed to kill the second young master, had instead severed one of his fingers.
With the second young master’s finger being cut off by Concubine Du, this was a grave matter, and the servants couldn’t afford to be negligent. They hastily left the residence in a carriage to request the help of Gu Youyou from the Lin Family.
In the absence of Minister Xie, with the second young master in such a state, the only person in the family who could make decisions was the third young lady, Xie Qinyun.
Xie Qinyun was so shocked upon arriving at the scene that she nearly fainted.
She had never imagined that Concubine Du, who had always professed her love for the second brother so fervently, could possess such a cruel heart.
She was after his life; although she didn’t get his life, she cut off one of his fingers.
What a vile woman!
