Days of Living with My Sister-in-Law-Chapter 267: The Lone Warrior

滴答,滴答.

A sound of clear running water drifted into Zhang Yingying’s ears, she slowly opened her eyes.

The surroundings were exceptionally dark, the dampness mixed with the smell of rotting mildew, causing Zhang Yingying to cough violently.

All she remembered was, when she was about to go home from school tonight, someone suddenly ran up behind her and covered her mouth, she was brought into a van, and after a few twists and turns, she arrived at this yard.

At that time, the people in the car thought she was pretty and tried to rape her.

Zhang Yingying of course wouldn’t agree, she screamed and struggled with the person.

Later, she got hold of a knife.

But she was just a weak woman, how could she fight against fierce and evil thugs?

In utter desperation, Zhang Yingying thought of an extreme method, which was to slash her face and her body with the knife!

Afterward, Zhang Yingying fainted, and when she woke up again, she was already thrown into this cell.

"Ah, my face, it hurts so much!"

"Those damn bastards, made me slash my own face, this time it’s over, Uncle Xiaobei definitely won’t like me anymore, right?"

"Uncle Xiaobei, godmother, I’m so scared—"

The more Zhang Yingying thought about it, the more desolate and hopeless she became, she curled up into a shrimp shape, sobbing incessantly.

But at this moment, a pair of small hands suddenly rested on Zhang Yingying’s shoulders.

Immediately afterward, a tender child’s voice echoed in her ear, "Sister, you’re awake? Why are you crying?!"

Zhang Yingying was startled, only to realize that it wasn’t just her in the dim little room, but more than a dozen children were also imprisoned there.

These children were all girls, the oldest was about ten years old, the youngest only three or four, all dirty and pitiful looking.

At the same time, those few three- or four-year-old children looked at Zhang Yingying with eyes filled with great horror, curling up in the big children’s arms, shivering.

Zhang Yingying understood that it was her face that scared them, and quickly covered it with her hands, trembling as she asked,

"Wh-where is this place?"

Beside her stood a seven or eight-year-old girl, who said timidly, "Sister, we don’t know where this is either, we were all caught by a gang of bad guys and brought here!"

A little boy grabbed Zhang Yingying’s hand and pleaded, "Sister, can you take us away from here? Just now, Xiao Hong was killed by a bad guy for making noise, we’re so scared, waah waah waah."

The boy pointed at a pool of blood on the floor not far away and immediately started crying.

The blood on the ground was not completely dry yet, and the blood smell from contact with the air nearly made Zhang Yingying vomit.

Zhang Yingying was equally scared, but she was the oldest one here. If she didn’t show strength in front of these children, they might all collapse.

Besides, she didn’t want to die. She wanted to live to see Chen Xiaobei, Chen Xiaobei’s medical skills were so good, he should be able to heal her face, right?

Figuring this out, Zhang Yingying quickly calmed down, hugged the little girl, and comforted her, saying, "Little sister, don’t cry, tell sister, what is your name?"

The child sobbed and said, "Sister, my name is Doudou, and they are called Qiqi, Jiajia..."

As she spoke, Doudou’s sobs grew heavier, pleading, "Sister, please take us away, okay? We’re really scared, waah waah waah!"

With Doudou’s cry, the other children began to cry one after another.

"Don’t cry, okay!"

Zhang Yingying was really scared, advising, "Your crying will attract the bad guys, then it will all be over."

Initially, Zhang Yingying thought scaring these kids would stop them from crying.

But little did she expect, just after saying this, the crying grew even louder!

Especially the two younger ones, they kept crying for their mothers, and nothing could console them.

"Listen to sister, don’t cry anymore!"

Zhang Yingying was anxious, wishing she could slap herself twice.

She suddenly felt so useless, unable to even console a few children, if Uncle Xiaobei were here, it wouldn’t have come to this!

Thinking of this, Zhang Yingying’s eyes reddened, almost reaching a state of having nothing else to try.

But at this moment, an idea suddenly flashed in Zhang Yingying’s mind!

She forced herself to calm down and began softly singing,

"All are brave

The wound on your forehead your difference the mistakes you made

No need to hide

Your tattered dolls your mask your self

They say to tame every monster with light 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝓮𝒘𝙚𝙗𝒏𝙤𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝒐𝙢

They say to heal your wounds no one loves the clown

Why can’t loneliness be glorious."

A song "Lonely Brave" gently flowed from Zhang Yingying’s throat.

The sound echoed like a celestial melody in the cold dungeon for a long time.

In an instant, these children were drawn to Zhang Yingying’s singing, completely forgetting their fear!

"To the sobs and roars in the dark, who says only standing in the light counts as a hero."

When the song ended, Zhang Yingying slowly opened her eyes and said to the children present, "Children, crying is just a sign of weakness, don’t be afraid, you have to be heroes, sister believes, someone will definitely come to save us!"

"Really?"

The children asked in unison.

"Really, sister wouldn’t lie to you!"

Zhang Yingying’s eyes were exceptionally firm, but inside she was extremely bewildered, "Uncle Xiaobei, will you come to save me? We did hook our fingers, and when I grow up, you said you would take care of me, I really don’t want to die a virgin!"

Zhang Yingying felt particularly miserable, and wanted to cry so much!

At this time, Doudou grabbed Zhang Yingying’s hand and said, "Sister, your song is really nice, can you sing us another one?"

The other children nodded frequently, their little eyes full of expectation.

In an instant, an unprecedented confidence rose in Zhang Yingying’s heart, she smiled and said, "Sure, as long as you behave, sister will keep singing for you, okay?"

As soon as she said this, the children immediately became happy and quieted down.

But before Zhang Yingying could start singing, the door was kicked open by someone, who sneered,

"Heh, that was a nice song, it’s a real pity about your face, but why are you so stubborn? Can’t you just enjoy a little fun with me?"

"What do you want to do?"

Seeing the man walking in with a knife, Zhang Yingying instinctively shielded the children behind her.

This man was none other than the bastard who kidnapped her!

"What do I want to do?"

The man sneered, "Let me tell you, I’m an outer disciple of the Heavenly Poison Sect, our sect specializes in refining elixirs for people, although your face is ruined, the components inside are still quite good, especially that little heart of yours, beating strongly, it’s simply excellent material for refining the Heart Calming Fire Leaving Pill!"

"Of course!"

Looking at Zhang Yingying’s fiery little figure, the man swallowed hard, sarcastically saying,

"Although you’re ugly, your body shape is really nice, little lady, if you know what’s good for you, let me have some fun, maybe in reward for serving me I’ll give you some anesthetic when I dig out your heart, otherwise, I’ll make sure to hollow you out alive!"

Leaving these words, the man reached out to grab Zhang Yingying.

"No, get away!"

Zhang Yingying shouted as hard as she could, but how could she have the strength of a man? She was kicked down to the ground on the spot.

A burst of severe pain hit, Zhang Yingying was completely desperate!

But at this moment!

"If you dare to touch her, I guarantee you won’t die with a complete corpse!"

Chen Xiaobei’s voice suddenly rang out in the dungeon.
