Chapter 029 The truth

The dark red box? Yu Li was in a daze for a while. Is it the box that her father often took out to look at? She still remembered that there were two words carved on it by her father: Yu Li. He once said that when Li'er grows up,

If so, give this box to Li'er.

Was it really Gu Cenya who killed her whole family? If that was the case, what was his intention after killing her whole family and then leaving her behind?

***********

Yu Li endured the whiplash and returned to the room. At this time, her face was so normal that there was no clue.

Gu Cenya was sitting on her small couch, with his back to the early morning sunlight coming in. When he saw her coming in, he seemed startled, and then pretended to be calm and asked: "Xinghun, he didn't do anything to you, right?"

?”

Yu Li sneered in her heart, even if something happened, so what? You watched him take me away, didn't you expect the result?

However, what he said was something else: "No, he just scolded me a few words and told me not to disobey your orders in the future."

Gu Cenya's expression became obviously more relaxed and he said, "In that case, you should take a good rest first. I'll call you during the meal."

After saying that, Gu Cenya walked out of the room.

Yu Li then showed pain on her face. She carefully took off her clothes and then picked up the bronze mirror. The stripes of whip marks on her back made even herself startled.

However, she didn't want Gu Cenya to find out, because she wanted to go to the study to serve tea in the afternoon as usual.

So, Yu Li found the herbs that she had collected before, and applied some on the wound randomly, which could barely relieve the pain. Then she wrapped the wound layer by layer with a clean white cloth to prevent the oozing blood from being absorbed by others.

Discover.

After finishing the matter, Yu Li lay down on the couch and closed his eyes to rest, but his heart couldn't calm down!

During the meal, Gu Cenya really came to call her.

"Are you still tired?" Seeing that her face was still pale, Gu Cenya came over, sat on the edge of the cave, and asked.

Yu Li didn't open her eyes, but said softly: "It's nothing serious, just lie down for a while and it will be fine."

Gu Cenya could clearly feel her coldness, and he couldn't help but feel depressed, and said: "Are you still angry about what happened yesterday? If you are angry, it should be me. Aren't you afraid that others will worry if you run out in the middle of the night?

"

Worried? He said worried? Yu Li wanted to laugh, did he mean it?

"Open your eyes!" Gu Cenya ordered in a low voice. She closed her eyes so that he could not read her thoughts.

Yu Li obediently opened her eyes, her eyes were colder than ever before.

"You..." Gu Cenya was startled by this indifference. Where did her indifference come from? Didn't she say that Xinghun didn't do anything to her? She asked Xinghun just now, and Xinghun also answered in the same way. Then she

, is it because he used the golden bell to force her back?

"Yesterday, did you want to leave Luoyun Valley?" Gu Cenya asked seemingly casually.

Yu Li thought for a while, and because she didn't want to involve An Yun in this matter, she simply said: "Yes, I am ready to leave."

When Gu Cenya heard this, he stood up suddenly and said angrily: "Have you forgotten what you swore? You swore that you would not escape!"

Yu Li was silent and looked at him coldly. What was the purpose of him forcing her to stay by his side like this? Did he really want to use her as he said before? But she was just an ordinary woman, what use could she have?

Value? Coupled with what Xinghun said last night, she was even more puzzled. If Gu Cenya killed her whole family, why did he not spare her life and allow her to stay in his house like this?

around?

"Answer me!" Gu Cenya frowned. It seemed that he was very concerned about whether Yu Li had forgotten the oath.

Yu Li didn't want to cause trouble at this time, so she lowered her tone and said, "Just think of me as breaking my oath this time. I won't do it next time."

"Are you still worthy of my belief?" Gu Cenya exerted force with his hands, causing his knuckles to snap.

Yu Li didn't say anything more, she just leaned weakly on the brocade quilt and stared at the vase in the room. In that vase, a few golden chrysanthemums were blooming just right.

Gu Cenya stood up and said coldly: "No matter what, I hope this is the last time! You won't have such good luck next time!"

After saying that, he strode out without even looking at Yu Li.

Yu Li watched his figure disappear outside the door and couldn't help stroking the scars on her body. Fortunately, he didn't use force on herself again today, otherwise he would definitely not be able to hide it.

After sorting out my emotions for a while, I changed my clothes and freshened up. Only then did I realize that my hands were sweaty. It turned out that facing him like that just now was really difficult for me.

Yu Li and Hong Xiu had lunch together, and then Hong Xiu went to the yard to plant flowers and grass, while Yu Li went to the tea hall to prepare Biluochun for Gu Cenya to drink in the afternoon.

However, when pouring water, Yu Li's hands started shaking uncontrollably.

"Miss Yu Li, what's wrong with you?" Hong Xiu, who came in to get something, couldn't help but feel a little strange when she saw Yu Li's appearance.

Yu Li calmed down and said, "It's okay, just go and do your work."

"Be careful, don't burn it." Hongxiu said and continued to do her work.

How could she know that what Yu Li was facing now was to find out the truth about the death of her entire family!

After finally making tea, Yu Li picked up the tray and came to the study.

As usual, Gu Cenya was immersed in his own business in the study at this time every day. However, there was one more person in the study today, Xinghun.

When Yu Li saw Xinghun, she couldn't help but feel even more panicked. What was he doing here? Did he want to see if he could verify his words?

Yu Li put down the tray and poured a glass each for Gu Cenya and Xinghun.

Gu Cenya was concentrating on his work. When Yu Li came in, he didn't even raise his head. He didn't know if he was still angry about the previous conversation.

Xinghun drank tea and looked at Yu Li with a complicated look in his eyes.

Yu Li stood aside, biting her lips and wringing her fingers. Suddenly, she seemed to have made up her mind, walked to the bookshelf in a few steps, and then quickly opened the drawer...

Xinghun laughed!

Gu Cenya was so frightened that he stood up suddenly and even knocked over the teapot and teacup placed beside his table.

"Crash..." The teapot and teacup fell to the ground, making a shattering sound.

Seeing the contents of the drawer, Yu Li collapsed on the ground for a moment, her face ashen. She clearly saw that there was a dark red box in the drawer, with two words engraved on it: Yu Li!

What Xinghun said is indeed correct!

"What are you doing?" Gu Cenya ran to her side, held her trembling shoulders with both hands, and growled: "What are you doing? Didn't I warn you not to touch my things!"

He was very confused and panicked! He had never been so afraid of losing as he is now!

Yu Li stretched out her hand as if sleepwalking, picked up the box, and said with a smile: "I didn't touch your things. This box originally belonged to my father!"

Her voice was so hoarse, as if someone had strangled her neck, "You killed my father and my whole family. Are you not even willing to give this thing back to me?"

She hugged the box tightly, her tears falling drop by drop on the box and on Gu Cenya's heart.

He struggled to pry open her fingers, then took the box away and placed it on the highest shelf.

"Give it back to me!" Yu Li shouted with red eyes, staring at Gu Cenya, almost wanting to cut him into pieces.

Gu Cenya grabbed her hand that was scratching randomly and said angrily: "That's enough! Be quiet! Who told you that I killed your whole family? Who was it?"

Yu Li didn't want to talk to him anymore. She just wanted to get the box back and then escape from this man. Even if she suffered "unintentional" pain every day, she didn't want to stay with him for a moment longer.

"Tell me who it is?" Gu Cenya yelled.

Yu Li lowered her head, opened her mouth, and bit the hand that controlled her mercilessly, until she tasted a hint of fishy sweetness, and then she raised her head angrily.
