Chapter 1207 - 1206 Chen Pu
At that time, Chen Pu, who was slightly older, had hidden Chen Benshuang, who was only nine years old at the time, while he alone went out to face those enemies. He was tortured severely by those enemies, who forced him to disclose the whereabouts of Chen Benshuang, but Chen Pu endured steadfastly.
In the end, when the Chen Family found Chen Benshuang and returned with her, Chen Pu was already on his last breath. Moreover, in order to force him to reveal the whereabouts of Chen Benshuang, the enemies had even castrated him.
Although Chen Pu was rescued back to the Chen Family, their lineage was essentially finished.
However, because he had saved Chen Benshuang, he had established some merit and was taken back to the Chen Family of the Capital. For some time afterward, he followed closely by Chen Benshuang’s side, essentially becoming a sort of servant to her.
Chen Pu was very kind to Chen Benshuang, but, less than two years after staying by her side, he was taken away by a senior member of the Chen Family. After that, Chen Benshuang never saw him again. When she asked the family members, they all said he had gone outside to handle significant matters, but what exactly he was doing, they could not say.
Chen Benshuang could never have imagined that Chen Pu, who was supposed to be handling significant matters outside, would appear in this dungeon. Had it not been for the familiar scar on Chen Pu’s forehead, Chen Benshuang certainly wouldn’t have recognized him!
The two of them cried bitterly across the iron bars; after a while, Chen Benshuang finally stopped crying. She grabbed Chen Pu’s hand and asked in a trembling voice, "What on earth... what on earth happened? Tell me, tell me!"
Chen Pu did not respond to Chen Benshuang’s question but asked in an extremely hoarse and sluggish voice, "Do... do you have... have any food? I... I’m so hungry..."
Chen Benshuang was startled. She could never have expected that, after not seeing each other for six years, the first words Chen Pu would speak to her would be about food. But this showed how Chen Pu had been living in this dungeon!
