A Star Reborn: The Queen’s Return

Chapter 793 This Is Against the Rules

Li Lei frowned slightly, there was something he didn't want to tell her.

Su Tang said sadly: "Miss Ye, don't you know? It's just..."

"Su Tang." Li Lei shouted to stop.

Xia Ling looked at him unhappily: "Let her tell. What are you hiding from me?"

Li Lei is very innocent: "How could I have something to hide from you? Blowing the sea breeze is to let them blow the sea breeze to calm down. Once they calm down, they will naturally stop making trouble."

Xia Ling was suspicious: "Is it that simple?"

"It's that simple."

She looked at Li Lei and then at Su Tang. Su Tang's pale and beautiful face had a look of hesitation, but she seemed to be hindered by Li Lei and didn't say much.

Xia Ling made up her mind: "Take me to have a look."

"What are you looking at?" asked classmate Li Xiaolei.

"Blow the sea breeze." Xia Ling glared at him lightly.

Classmate Li Xiaolei: "Xiao Ling, it's still early before dawn, the night is so cold, and the road is so long, it's not appropriate for you to go."

"I'm going," Xia Ling said, "Li Lei, I'm not as fragile as you think, and it's not that I don't know what your family does. I don't think that you can get your status today by convincing others with virtue. Take I’ll go see it.”

Seeing her resolute attitude, Li Lei had no choice but to say, "Then wear more clothes."

She nodded and motioned for him to lead the way. Su Tang naturally stood up and followed them.

Xia Ling stopped and glanced at Su Tang: "Why are you following me?"

Su Tang was slightly taken aback, her voice was natural, elegant and gentle: "Thank you, Miss Ye, for being willing to save Xiaoyao and the others, and I will guide you." Because she knelt in front of the Lei Ming Courtyard for a long time, her body looked precarious, and her knees were covered with There are traces of dust, and the hair on the temples is disheveled and messy.

Xia Ling was very unhappy: "Go down and clean yourself up. Those who don't know may think I'm bullying you."

Su Tang suddenly choked. Isn't this what she had in mind? Kneeling for a whole night in front of the Leiming Courtyard, begging for mercy for her former companions, everyone would only be grateful to her, Su Tang, for her love and righteousness, and it also highlighted how cold-blooded and cruel Li Lei's new woman was. When the time comes, people's hearts will turn towards her and reject Xia Ling.

But although Xia Ling wasn't so scheming, she instinctively felt something was wrong.

It actually revealed the true meaning in one sentence.

Su Tang's face turned white and pale, and he stood helplessly on the side of the road, mumbling and speechless.

Li Lei also frowned at her appearance, and said in a deep voice, "Su Tang, go down and have a good rest. Xiaoling and I can take care of the carefree affairs. I've been a subordinate for so many years, and I have a sense of proportion."

Su Tang had no choice but to lower his head and retreat with the help of the servant.

The blue-gray light of the morning sun penetrated through the clouds and fell on the quiet island.

It was very quiet all around. Along the path surrounded by greenery, they gradually walked to the seaside. On the seaside, there are large black rocks. The tide hits the shore on the other side of the rocks, and the sound of the waves is like crying and singing.

Li Lei's steps slowed down and he said to Xia Ling, "It's over there."

Xia Ling followed his guidance to look, only to find that on the black rock not far away, there were several people tied up in a haphazard manner, all of whom had offended her in the hall yesterday, and the leader was Li Xiaoyao.

At this time, their upper body was naked, and their lower body was only wearing a pair of thin boxer pants. Some wounds on their bodies were cut with deep blood, and the wounds had not healed. Sea water poured into the wounds, causing those people to let out indistinct and inhuman screams.

"This is like blowing the sea breeze." Li Lei made his tone sound innocent, "It is used to deal with disobedient people. The pain will make them remember."

Xia Ling's expression was not very good, the wounds of these people were soaked white by the sea water, their skin and flesh rolled up, they were hideous and terrifying. Many people have passed out, and the few who still have their eyes half-opened are obviously awakened by the pain, dying.

There are vultures hovering above.

Xia Ling asked: "Will someone die?"

Li Lei was quiet for a while, and then said: "Whether you can survive or not is up to fate."

His cold tone made her feel chilly in the blue-gray heavy sky. She didn't like this feeling very much, she took a few steps forward and got closer to the group of tied people: "Let them go."

Around the tied person, the two prisoners looked at each other, and then looked at Li Lei inquiringly.

Li Lei said to her: "According to the rules handed down from the ancestors, it is necessary to tie up for a full day and night. Now the time has not yet come, so it is not appropriate to let go."

Xia Ling said: "I don't care about the rules."

Her slightly raised volume startled the people who were tied up, and Li Xiaoyao, who was closest to her, barely opened his eyes and took a lot of effort to see that it was her: "Ye...Xingling, you...don't be hypocritical... If you become a good person, I will compensate... cough cough cough cough... ah..."

When the tide rose, the sea water poured into his lungs and washed his body, making him miserable.

His whole body was bluish-white that was dying, and it seemed that he would not last long, his chest heaved weakly.

Xia Ling sneered: "Look at you like this, even a dead fish is worse than that. However, I will still save your life. I am a soft-hearted person who can't see blood."

What she said was true.

Although these people offended her, their sins were not punishable by death.

Today's punishment is severe enough.

She looked at Li Lei again: "I said let him go."

Li Xiaoyao sneered, his face contorted with pain and disdain: "Come on...well, who do you think you are? And the Patriarch of the Li family is... What a noble status...? How could I listen to you as a mere woman... "

Before he could say anything, he was surprised to find——

Li Lei's cold voice came: "Untie them."

Wha...what? !

Li Xiaoyao's heart was filled with turbulent waves. Several other people who were still barely awake couldn't believe what they saw. You must know that the punishment of blowing the sea breeze has been passed down from ancestors. After so many generations of the Li family, the punishment standards have long been perfected. The time of blowing the sea breeze is one day and one night. Life or death depends on fate. One minute more will not work, and one minute less will not work.

However, Li Lei ignored this rule and let them go early.

"This is... against the rules!" Li Xiaoyao glared at Li Lei weakly, "Second Young Master, you actually made an exception for a woman... for a woman!" A roar like a broken bellows came from his throat, and he was extremely angry. To put it bluntly, he had long known that the woman in front of him was a nuisance, and it was indeed true! The rules passed down from so many generations of the Li family will be destroyed in her hands!

"It's so noisy." Xia Ling said coldly, kicking Li Xiaoyao who was lying on the ground with her toes, as if she was evaluating a dead fish. She turned her head and asked Li Lei, "Can this person be saved?"

Li Lei glanced lightly: "He's not dead yet."

So, Xia Ling kicked him again with her toes, and the shoe hit his wound, causing him to scream in pain.
