inted."Su Meng said.Shen Xiuqin stood up, his long legs stepping out, without looking back, he coldly dropped three words: "Throw it out."……What is the Dong HuangHere, there are the rules of survival...Lu Zong turned around, and Jian Tong was pushed out. Opening her eyes, she was stunned, "President Lu You... why did you bring me here"

Here, is a room similar in layout to the previous one.

Who is she She's just an inmate, someone you don't want to cause trouble with.

Anything that made her uneasy, Jian Tong instinctively wanted to avoid... She had nothing she could offer, or anything else she could afford to lose.

Unconsciously, she hurriedly said, "Mr. Lu, I'm fine, I'll go first."

Saying "let's go", her legs couldn't move quickly, but her heart was eager to get away from this person who might pose a threat to her. This resulted in a very uncoordinated gait, which appeared quite comical in the eyes of Mr. Lu.

Jian Tong dragged her feet, walking awkwardly toward the door. Lu Zong had one hand in his suit pocket, a smile playing on his lips behind his gold-rimmed glasses as he watched her walk to the private room door. He didn't obstruct her at all throughout the process, as if he didn't care whether she came and went freely.

Jian Tong reached out and grasped the doorknob. She let out a breath of relief, straining her arm, pushing open a crack. Light spilled through the gap. The unused private room was even darker, the sudden brightness blinding her eyes. She squinted... "Ah!"

The moment she closed her eyes, the world spun. Someone grabbed her wrist, yanking her with a force that wasn't necessarily strong, but her frail body and inconvenient leg made it impossible for her to resist. She was dragged to the ground.

Coming to, Jian Tong looked up and was met with a face that seemed sculpted by the gods. In the dim light, it wasn't clear, shrouded in haze.

A hand reached out toward her face.

"You... what are you doing!"

Jian Tong hid.

"Don't move." It was still that gentle voice, Mr. Lu's voice, commanding slowly.

Jian Tong's face paled slightly. Three years in prison had transformed her from the once-proud Miss Jian into a sensitive and vulnerable person. Lu Zong's voice was gentle, but she heard a hint of coldness within it... just like Shen Xiuqin!

Jian Tong's eyes were frantic, her body instinctively trying to dodge. "Shen Xiu Jin... Shen Xiu Jin... Shen Xiu Jin..." He was on the same side as Shen Xiu Jin, he would hurt himself!

A voice echoed in my ear:

"Aren't you being obedient I hate disobedient toys the most."

Jian Tong's body trembled, her face paling instantly. The lighting was dim, almost black, making it impossible to see clearly. She could only vaguely make out a ghostly and intricate silhouette in front of her... President Lu Shen Xiujin President Lu Shen Xiujin

Who Who is it

Her thoughts began to swirl, her breathing quickening, her mind rapidly reciting two names: Lu Zong, Shen Xiujin, Lu Zong, Shen Xiujin.

"Disobedient toys need to be put away and properly disciplined."

Then the sound arose again.

Jian Tong's body trembled imperceptibly. Her entire being, even the tiniest movement, froze. She widened her eyes in fear, her pupils filled with terror... Shen Xiu Jin! Don't lock me up!

“Oh! No! Don’t close me, don’t close me, don’t close me!”

"Shen Xiujin" and "Close it up", these six words, were enough to drive her crazy, "Please, I was wrong, I was wrong, don't shut me out, please, don't shut me out, I won't dare again, I won't dare again!"

Lu Zong was stunned by the woman before him, flailing her arms wildly. Caught off guard, he stumbled and, regaining his composure, a cold glint appeared in his usually gentle eyes. The towering man grabbed both of Jian Tong's flailing arms, his voice laced with anger:

"Are you crazy!"

"Get away, get away, get away, ahhh! I know I was wrong, I really know I was wrong, I was wrong, I was wrong, I was wrong, I was wrong, I was wrong…"

Never had Mr. Lu been treated this way before. The switch was right next to the wall, and with a stretch of his arm, he pressed it down with a "click," bathing the entire room in light.

He was even angrier now, grabbing Jian Tong's arms with one hand and lifting her chin with the other: "Hey! Are you done messing around Crazy…"

"Hiss～" Lu Zong's voice, abruptly stopped, the face and eyes before him, made him gasp.

The frenzied expression, the vacant eyes... what is this woman's deal!

Lu's gold-rimmed glasses flashed a glimmer as his intelligent eyes caught the woman's gaze. He was a smart man, and since they hadn't met before... In an instant, he could deduce that this woman had likely mistaken him for someone else.

His face flickered, and Lu Zong quietly released his hand, retreating to a safe distance. At this moment, he couldn't possibly call himself a man and slap this crazy woman awake, could he

The best way is to stay away from her and wait for her to come to her senses.

The vision inside the private room was dim, and the whole room was silent except for a woman's murmur to herself.

Mr. Lu looked coldly at Jian Tong, the frequency with which the woman muttered to herself was decreasing. Until she was completely silent, Mr. Lu raised his foot and walked towards her face, stepping on the cold floor. He stopped.

He reached out towards her, and Jian Tong instinctively turned her head away.

A soft chuckle echoed in his ear, "Awake"

Jian Tong felt a bit embarrassed... was it just herself who had imagined things.

"I'm sorry, I might... be unwell today. Mr. Lu, I startled you, I'm sorry."

President Lu let out a sneer, and the next second, Jian Tong felt a heat on her forehead. She heard President Lu say, "Don't hide, I just want to ask you, how did you get the scar on your forehead" He took her out of that private room, just to see this scar.

Huh

Jian Tong was a little confused, then casually said: "I tripped."

"How did you fall"

"It's just a fall."

Well, that's a fall. Haha.

She lowered her eyes, "Mr. Lu, can you let go of me" That scar wasn't something she was comfortable showing in front of others, nor was she comfortable with people touching it. Mr. Lu loosened his grip and looked at the woman in front of him. She seemed eager to cover the scar, hurriedly tucking her fringe to hide the one on her forehead.

"Worried about the scar on your forehead" President Lu chuckled lightly. "If you're so concerned, why not go to a plastic surgery clinic and have it removed."

Saying that, he lost the interest in continuing to talk with the madwoman before him. He lifted his foot, ready to leave.

"What I'm covering isn't this scar. This is something that will never disappear, no matter what."

Suddenly!

Lu Zong lifted his foot and put it down, silent for a long time, an extremely low voice rang out in this private room:

Once, a woman said the same thing. She said the scar on her forehead was there to stay for life, and she kept her bangs not to hide it.

Jian Tong's heart skipped a beat... because she herself had experienced it, she understood even more deeply the pain behind those words.

"Is this person the one you love" For some reason, she knew, with her lowly status, she shouldn't have spoken. The moment the words left her lips, she regretted it.

Jian Tong, don't forget, you're just a murderer who came out of prison as a reform-through-labor convict!

"No, I don't love her," Jian Tong heard Lu Zong say, "And I, am the one she loved, so she died."

“……”

“She loves me, deep down to her bones. That's why she died, a terrible death.” Jian Tong stood rigidly in place, staring at Lu Zong’s figure. His voice was calm, as if he were simply telling someone else’s story.

But, Jian Tong clearly heard the heart-wrenching pain of a splitting heart from this calm and placid voice.

She didn't know what to say, only instinctively feeling that this man was pitiful at this moment. She subconsciously reached out her hand and used the way her brother hugged her when she was hurt as a child. But she still remembered her identity and that she was just a reformed prisoner. Jian Tong awkwardly made a gesture of lightly hugging Mr. Lu.

Mr. Lu's body stiffened, and he heard a gentle voice in his ear:

She knew you loved her, and I think she would be very happy in another world. Her biggest wish in life was to have your love.

Jian Tong was just about to back away.

Suddenly!

A mighty force held her tight, her head heavy rested on his shoulder. She heard a voice, low and deep, brush past her ear:

"I'm sorry, Anran. I love you, Anran."

Jian Tong let go of her feelings. This man, because he and the woman he loved both had a scar on their foreheads, they said the same thing because of that scar. At this moment, he treated her as his beloved An Ran—the woman who he could no longer apologize to or say "I love you" aloud.

"Land…"

Before he could finish speaking, a chilling voice came from the door: “Lu Chen, let her go.”

Looking toward the door, Jian Tong's face instantly turned pale!

Lu Chen, Lu Zong, at this moment felt the tremor of the person beside him, narrowed his eyes and looked towards the door: "Oh~ It's you!" It turned out to be you, who made this woman so afraid that she lost her sanity.

Shen Xiujin's tall figure stood at the doorway. His exquisitely handsome features were covered in frost, and his dark eyes glanced over to Jian Tong standing beside Lu Chen:

"Come here."

Jan Tong's face drained of color, her eyes filled with fear. She felt her legs go weak. At this moment, Shen Xiu Jin radiated a chilling coldness that intimidated her.

Shen Xiujin narrowed his eyes slightly, his voice dropping to the temperature of zero degrees: "It seems you'll never learn."

Upon hearing this, Jian Tong was struck dumb with fear. Terror filled her entire body, and she lifted her foot...

Suddenly, a hand grabbed her. Lu Chen looked at Shen Xiuqin with a half-smile, "She's too busy to deal with you now, Shen Xiuqin. Don't you see She's with me."

Click!

His knuckles cracked, a storm brewing in Shen Xiuqin's dark eyes. His hawk-like gaze ignored Lu Chen beside him, fixated on Jian Tong. He took a step, then another, his footsteps echoing—tap, tap...—as he walked towards her.

"Who is it What gave you the guts to seduce other men" The man's voice was cold and sharp, each word a question. "Or do you still want to go back to that cage, huh"

Cage!

No…no!

Her hands trembled, she shook her head desperately, she didn't want to, she couldn't be locked up there again, she had to go to Erhai Lake, she had to pay back her debts, "No..."

A rough and terrifying voice just rose, my vision went black, and my body softened as I fell to the ground.

"You're crazy!"

"Get out of here!"

Two voices rang out simultaneously, and two hands reached out at the same time to catch Jian Tong's limp body.

"Get lost!" Shen Xiujin grabbed the woman's body, holding her tightly, and at the same time, with lightning speed, he punched Lu Chen without hesitation.he familiar scent of tobacco from the person enveloped her. As she suddenly looked up, she met a pair of dark, bottomless eyes.Without a word, she unconsciously pressed her lips together.The man's ir...
