Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s

Chapter 2667: Chapter 2603: Butterfly Won’t Speak

"Pitiful?" Lu Shuangshuang sneered, looking at her mockingly, "Don’t act all kind-hearted and the like. Do you really think kindness is a good thing? She got caught because she’s stupid and not skilled enough. If she actually betrayed me, I’ll show you what’s pitiful."

Fei Cui lowered her head.

Indeed, their lives all belonged to her. What right did they have to call anything pitiful?

"Fei Cui wouldn’t dare."

"You better not dare, and you better pray Butterfly truly doesn’t have the guts to betray me, or none of you will end well. You all might as well be sent away since staying by my side won’t get anything done properly. You’ll be sent to be with men, and I’ll see if serving men is what you excel at then."

Upon hearing this, Fei Cui and the others’ faces slightly changed.

They all clearly understood what being sent away implied.

The Lu Family’s connections are so extensive, they’re always a step ahead in finding things out because they’ve secretly trained many people, sending them to become intimate companions to certain individuals, constantly gathering information.

It’s not just women; there are men too.

These people originally didn’t want to engage in such work, which is why they chose to follow Lu Shuangshuang.

Back then, they thought Lu Shuangshuang, being a woman, would be more empathetic. Later, they realized empathy was impossible, but at least following Lu Shuangshuang meant they wouldn’t be sent to serve men.

But now, Lu Shuangshuang has said such things.

Their hearts sank.

After leaving the room, two women approached Fei Cui, worriedly lowered their voices and asked, "Fei Cui, Butterfly has probably fallen into Sixth Young Master’s hands, right?"

"Yes, probably."

"Rumor has it that Sixth Young Master was once a gentleman as warm as jade, so he probably won’t resort to torture with Butterfly, right?"

"Right, I believe Sixth Young Master Jiang wouldn’t." It was precisely because Fei Cui believed Jiang Shiheng wouldn’t torture a woman for information that she was confident Butterfly wouldn’t reveal Lu Shuangshuang’s hiding place.

"Maybe his subordinates will? What about Old Master Jiang...?"

"Old Master Jiang wouldn’t either." Fei Cui said with certainty, "Old Master Jiang’s methods have always been much more gentle than ours, and his subordinates are similar. Even if they did resort to torture, it would be within what Butterfly could endure, so don’t worry too much, Butterfly won’t speak."

The two women finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"That’s for the best. Otherwise..."

She didn’t continue, but everyone present knew what ’otherwise’ implied.

This time, they’d already made a mistake; in the heavenly trap they’d arranged, Sixth Young Master Jiang still managed to escape.

Fortunately, Lu Shuangshuang came up with this plan at the last minute, or they wouldn’t know how to resolve it.

Sixth Young Master Jiang hadn’t seen her order the attack at that time, so even if he suspected, Lu Shuangshuang could just insist it wasn’t her.

As for Sun Han, he’s just a bodyguard; Jiang Shiheng might trust him, but other members of the Jiang Family might not.

She just needed to use a bit of discord then.

Though not perfect, it would at least salvage some situation.

At least both families wouldn’t officially fall out at this time.

However, if Jiang Shiheng found Lu Shuangshuang’s hiding place first, then everything would be uncertain, and they would inevitably be in trouble as well.

"Don’t worry, Butterfly won’t talk."

As if to reassure them, or perhaps to console herself, Fei Cui reiterated.
