After transmigrating into the body of a widow, I became the richest man in the capital.

Chapter 311 Rescue from the Water Prison
Su Xiaoxiao noticed that there was a table next to the cell.

There was a candlestick on it, but it was not used for lighting.

On the contrary, the lighting was provided by torches on the cliff face. The table with the candlestick was very dirty, with only signs of movement around the candlestick.

Su Xiaoxiao walked over and turned the candlestick a few times, finally hearing it creak.

Sure enough, this place really was a trap. After the wall was opened, Su Xiaoxiao immediately saw Qian Musheng sitting on the stone bed.

Of course, she also saw the instruments of torture placed around the water dungeon, which looked terrifying.

The various instruments of torture are truly terrifying. Why should Qian Musheng, the old master's own son, be imprisoned here in such a cruel manner?

"Young Master Qian, are you alright?"

Su Xiaoxiao walked down the steps. The water prison was very cold, and it got colder the further down she went.

Moreover, Qian Musheng was injured and had been soaking in water. When Su Xiaoxiao saw Qian Musheng, she noticed that he had many wounds and his complexion was very bad.

Su Xiaoxiao quickly went over to take Qian Musheng's pulse. According to the pulse, Qian Musheng was indeed very weak. The main reason was that in such a dungeon, the air was very damp and cold. Qian Musheng's old injuries had not yet fully healed, and now he had new injuries.

When Qian Musheng saw that it really was Su Xiaoxiao, he angrily questioned her in a low voice, "Why are you here? It's so dangerous here!"

Su Xiaoxiao didn't say anything, but still insisted on taking Qian Musheng's pulse, and sternly said to Qian Musheng, "Don't talk, you're disturbing my pulse taking!"

Little Table asked anxiously from the side, "How is it? Is my master alright?"

"It's alright, just get him out of here quickly."

Xiao Zhuo nodded, picked up Qian Musheng on his back, and Su Xiaoxiao led the way.

Following the path we came from, we soon reached the top and finally saw the moonlight seeping in from outside at the cave entrance.

The three of them were incredibly excited; finally, a weight was lifted off their shoulders.

Su Xiaoxiao walked up to Qian Musheng and said with a smile, "We're finally out of here."

Everyone was very happy, and Su Xiaoxiao rushed forward and hugged Qian Musheng.

Xiao Zhuozi wanted to come over and hug them both, but when she saw Qian Musheng's eyes, which looked like they wanted to kill someone, she didn't dare to go over.

Xiao Zhuo quickly lowered his head, let go of his arms, and walked behind the two people.

He was screaming in his heart: Master, I want a hug too! A little celebration is fine, this is so unfair!

Qian Musheng was still quite weak, so he was carried on Xiao Zhuozi's back as they walked out of the Qian family compound, where their brothers outside were there to meet them.

The other brothers were overjoyed to see Qian Musheng emerge safely from the Qian residence.

But upon seeing the wounds on his body, they immediately rubbed their hands together, ready to go in and avenge their master.

Qian Musheng quickly stopped the crowd, saying, "We are outnumbered now, going in would just be suicide. The key is to get out of here first."

Everyone thought this made sense and was about to leave when Qian Musheng suddenly asked, "Didn't I tell you to keep an eye on Su Xiaoxiao at home? Who brought her here?"

This question stunned everyone. They all turned to look at the small table.

Xiao Zhuo lowered his head. "It's not that you people are being unreasonable, but you expect me to shoulder all the blame when something goes wrong."

Qian Musheng looked at Xiaozhuozi, who was looking down. "So it was you?" Xiaozhuozi had no choice but to admit, "It was me, Master."

Su Xiaoxiao looked at it and said, "This is not Xiaozhuozi's fault. I insisted on coming. Now is not the time to discuss this. The key is for us to leave here as soon as possible."

Qian Musheng glared at Xiao Zhuozi: "I'll settle the score with you when we get back!"

Little Table didn't dare to argue, and together with the others, they quickly left before dawn.

They returned to Su Xiaoxiao's home together. Su Xiaoxiao quickly went inside to get a first-aid kit and bandaged Qian Musheng's wounds.

The other subordinates in the room all sensibly withdrew, and Xiao Zhuozi didn't give Qian Musheng a chance to continue punishing himself either, and quickly left as well.

Su Xiaoxiao stayed in the room alone to take care of Qian Musheng. Under the lamplight, Su Xiaoxiao prepared ointment for Qian Musheng. Her expression was focused and gentle, which made Qian Musheng mesmerized.

After Su Xiaoxiao finished preparing the ointment, she was about to get up when she noticed that Qian Musheng suddenly blushed and turned her gaze to the side.

Su Xiaoxiao was slow to realize why Qian Musheng was acting this way, so she quickly asked, "Are you feeling unwell? Do you have a fever?"

Qian Musheng pretended that nothing had happened, "No, I don't have a fever!"

The marks on Qian Musheng's body were mainly from whipping. When Su Xiaoxiao was helping him treat the marks, she was also surprised. Why would Old Master Qian be so cruel to his son?
Su Xiaoxiao applied anti-inflammatory medicine to Qian Musheng's wounds. Qian Musheng's body trembled slightly, which showed how much pain he must have felt when he was beaten like that.

Su Xiaoxiao was angry, so she tried to coax him like a child, saying, "It's okay, I'll blow on it for you! It won't hurt anymore if we blow on it!"

Upon hearing this, Qian Musheng could only smile helplessly.

He knew Su Xiaoxiao was just trying to comfort him. After his injuries were treated, Qian Musheng finally asked Su Xiaoxiao.

"Aren't you afraid that you and Xiaozhuozi will both go to the water dungeon to rescue me?"

Su Xiaoxiao replied casually, "Of course I'm scared, but even if I lose my life because of it, I won't have any regrets. Because you've saved me countless times, I can never repay you in this lifetime!"

Seeing how loyal and righteous Su Xiaoxiao was, Qian Musheng was momentarily speechless.

"Silly girl!"

Qian Musheng said reproachfully.

But his heart was already pounding with emotion. If it weren't for the fact that men don't easily shed tears, Qian Musheng would probably be in tears right now.

Su Xiaoxiao turned around and brought the medicine to Qian Musheng. "Take your medicine. Don't be so sentimental like a little girl every day."

Upon hearing this, Qian Musheng thought, "What kind of talk is this? Did Su Xiaoxiao realize what I was thinking just now? Isn't that incredibly embarrassing?"
Su Xiaoxiao has such a keen eye for observation. When will she be able to delve into my mind and know what I'm really thinking?

The Qian family mansion.

The next morning, someone discovered that Qian Musheng had been rescued and quickly went to inform Old Master Qian.

When Old Master Qian heard this, he was furious and blamed everything on the leader.

The leader even had a burn scar on his face from Qian Musheng's burn. He felt he was unlucky enough, but what was even more unlucky was that he had actually lost sight of the person.

He rushed to Old Master Qian to confess his guilt, "Did you hear me? Go out and find him right now! Otherwise, you'll be held accountable!"
