en said: “As soon as I saw this cake, I went out to buy some more dishes. Hehe, tonight we’ll have more dishes, making it more abundant. You, girl, why didn’t you say anything about your birthday Aunt...My waist hurts, my legs hurt, my teeth hurt, even my face hurts. Almost every part of my body aches. Lin Meng was curled up in her bed, gritting her teeth in anger. She had been tormented all night and it continued into the morning. But just as she drifted back to sleep in the late afternoon, that man caught her and made her exercise for a while. He’s abnormal, different from ordinary people, but couldn’t he at least consider her feelings!

Tired and hungry, I feel like I've been through a trial!

He, on the other hand, was a real man. He patted his butt and walked away. Leaving her to face the takeout alone, speechless once again. She ate the takeout with no taste for it, rested on the bed for a while, but finally gritted her teeth and got up, heading to the bathroom to freshen up. Though she didn't understand anything about being brought to this place yesterday, instinctively she knew he wouldn't hurt her. Staying by his side was definitely better than staying with Jiang Yancheng. Her body hadn't been washed in days, so she decided to take a shower. Since there were no clean clothes, she took a men's dress shirt from the closet - figuring it must be his - and didn't hesitate to wear it. The clothes she took off, she washed directly and hung them up in the laundry room.

This is also why Rong Ling, after returning, saw her just lying in bed wearing a shirt. It was by no means that she intentionally seduced or was corrupted by someone. In fact, she simply hadn't changed or washed her clothes. Luckily, autumn had already arrived and the weather had turned cooler, so changing clothes every day wasn't necessary!

The clothes that were washed yesterday had already been dried by this time. She picked up the clothes and went straight into the bathroom. After taking a shower, she changed. Then she washed that shirt again, using someone else’s things means you have to clean them properly and return them, right

After finishing everything, she lay down in bed and started spacing out!

"How could this be! Why did he bring her back again! She thought he hated her, that he couldn't stand to see her, but he pulled her out of the Jiang family anyway. Now though there are no explicit words, he hasn't abused her, and he even treats her well... Oh, except for the corporal punishment! That damn man hasn't tortured her like this before. She's still aching all over now, wincing in pain with every movement!"

She suddenly remembered what Rong Ling had said yesterday, that he had returned Xiao Yi to her. What did that mean! Ridiculous, when had she become an object, to be given back and forth! No, she had to get to the bottom of this.

She thought again, wondering how Xiao Yi was doing now! She was living a dissolute life, unaware of what was happening outside. It was clear that Rong Ling had no intention of letting her out, effectively imprisoning her.

In the afternoon of the third day, Rong Ling reappeared, sitting on the side and looking at her with an unfathomable expression, which made her feel a little uneasy. But she still had some things to communicate with him, so she had to muster up her courage to break the silence, jumped off the bed, intending to try and communicate with him through gestures.

And then he suddenly spoke.

"From now on, you'll stay here. Don't go out without my permission. If you need anything, just tell the guard. In a few days, I'll send someone to look after you!"

Lin Meng frowned slightly, walked up to him, and regardless of his dark face, forcefully pulled up his big hand.

"Here, it's just you and me. Go ahead and speak up. You won't die!" His tone was menacing.

She shook her head and frowned, but still wrote in his hand.

Thank you, but it's really not necessary to go through all that trouble. I can find a place to hide myself!

She thought he probably knew about the Silver Wolf Gang planning to kill her.

He immediately put on a sour face.

"Looking for another place! Where do you think you're going! You belong to me now, and you'll always be by my side. This is your new home, don't even try to act foolish here!"

Lin Meng's eyes widened suddenly, and she wrote frantically.

What do you mean by "I belong to you!" I'm a free person!

She glared at him with anger. Her hard-won freedom wouldn't be erased by his casual words.

"Xiao Yi, you are back with me now, and naturally belong to me. From now on, you'll be following me."

That's not true! I made a promise to him that in two months, we will have nothing to do with each other. Don't spread rumors here! And besides, I am a human being, not a slave. You can't just give me away to whoever you want!

"Follow me, and I've wronged you!" Rong Ling's voice was a bit loud, his eyebrows shot up high, showing strong displeasure. "Don't be so ungrateful! If it wasn't for Xiao Yi pleading with me, I wouldn't bother with you. When you rejected me that day, I should have just left you alone. Now that I've brought you back, you better know your place and don't talk back to me."

【You're such a bully!】 Lin Meng was furious, her little face turning pale. 【What did Xiao Yi say to you, I don't care. All I remember is my promise with him. In two months, I won't owe him anything anymore. And you, there's no need for you to help me, I didn't ask you to, and I won't thank you. If you find me repulsive, I'll leave right now!】

Rong Ling suddenly pulled his hand back and slapped her small palm viciously, leaving her hand red.

"Speak properly, don't talk to me in riddles! I'm telling you, behave yourself, or I swear I'll kick you out and leave you to get beaten up!"

Lin Meng pretended to pull him to write, but he stubbornly clenched his fists by his side, no matter how hard she pulled, it was useless. She couldn't bear it anymore and roared angrily, "Then kick me!"

His eyes immediately shot over like ice picks.

She defiantly lifted her chin and glared at him.

He glared at her for a moment, then abruptly curled his lips into a smirk, letting out a devilishly charming laugh. However, his eyes remained cold.

Lin Meng, don't you love me to death Do you really have the heart to leave me!

Seeing this, her face drained of all color. As if she had been caught red-handed, she stared at him in terror. A strange sense of exhilaration surged through his heart. But the words that slipped out of his mouth grew increasingly venomous. “So, don’t fight me. Behave yourself, and I might just let bygones be bygones and continue to support you. When I have free time, I'll even come see you!”

She trembled slightly, wounded to her core by his words. Was he using the fact that she loved him as leverage What did he think she was, a mistress! And this condescending tone! Did he think she would be grateful! Even if she loved him, so what! Did loving someone mean they had to be together! Was love supposed to make her swallow her pride and accept his insults!

She steadied her mind and body, her face also growing serious. Then, she suddenly stretched her lips and flashed a smile. "Rong Ling, don't think too highly of yourself! How could I possibly love you! It's not that I'm angry with you, it's that I can't bear to stay by your side. I'm uncomfortable. Don't you understand!"

He narrowed his eyes, coldly sizing her up, as if trying to see through her, and perhaps discern the truth behind her words. She forced herself to remain composed, meeting his piercing gaze with a defiant air, her lips pursed in pride as she gazed back at him.

Her composure, it made him despondent, enraged him!

This isn't what he imagined! She had tried to destroy herself, even attempting suicide, how could she look like this now!

His expression hardened, and he angrily demanded, "Did Xiao Yi ever touch you!"

There was no doubt she had feelings for him, the only question was what Xiao Yi had done.

Her eyelids twitched violently, wounded by this man to the point where she wanted to speak recklessly and say that she had been touched by Xiao Yi; but damn it, she couldn't bring herself to say it. And damn it, she still desperately hoped that he could keep a clean image of her in his heart.

She pursed her lips, unable to answer him.

He looked at her sharply, waiting for a while, but she didn't answer. He didn't insist on an answer either. Perhaps he didn't want to hear the answer that might wound him!

"With you the way you are, you have nowhere else to go. Come with me, and you'll never want for food or shelter. It's your best choice. Don't be stupid and push it away!" he said.

She felt a mixture of sadness, bitterness, and anger in her heart. She realized it wasn't that she was foolish, but that she had seen through him too clearly. It was pointless to cling to him. Moreover, Rong Sanbo, that plague god, was still standing there. Therefore, she forced a smile and said, "You don't need to worry about this. The world is vast, and there will always be a place for me. My reputation might be tarnished, but it hasn't reached the point where everyone wants to kill me. I can still make a living!"

He fell silent, his eyes gradually turning cold, and he asked with a sharp edge. "Are you so unwilling to stay by my side! If you want to meet someone like me again in the future, it will be rarer than a comet hitting Earth!"

Look, how conceited this man is!

Lin Meng smiled wryly. Yes, she knew it was impossible to meet another man like Rong Ling. But what could she do Just because men like him were so rare did that mean someone like her couldn't seize the opportunity

She nodded heavily, acknowledging that she didn't want to stay by his side, ruthlessly crushing Rong Ling's last shred of hope.

His eyes, completely cold, were devoid of any warmth.

"So unwilling, yet so passionate in bed. Is your body truly born to be wanton! If you were a man, wouldn't everyone excite you like this!"

She was stabbed and her face turned pale.

But then he abruptly changed his tone, stating coldly: "Since we're meeting for the first time, I'll be a good person this once and let you stay here until Xiao Yi is taken care of by Jiang Yancheng. Then, you won't have to worry about losing your life!"

After finishing his words, he ignored her reaction and turned to leave.

He left, and she nearly lost her balance. Her vision blurred, and she almost fainted. She took several deep breaths in a row before regaining her composure, but she was drenched in cold sweat!

She knew that for a bird in captivity to break free from its cage, it would inevitably be covered in wounds and drenched in blood. So, even though she was hurt and pained again, she told herself she would endure it. She wanted freedom!

But, damage can be infinitely compounded!

That night, perhaps out of revenge, or perhaps for some other reason, Rong Ling brought a woman back. He brought her back and slept with her, satisfying his desires. It didn't matter; she was staying in the house anyway, couldn't see, and wouldn't be bothered.

He pressed her roughly, making a ruckus outside her room. Whether intentionally or not, he ended up bumping into her door while holding her, causing the woman to nearly fall into her own room. Luckily, Rong Ling caught her in time. The woman didn't say anything, instead giggling coquettishly and kissing Rong Ling with a French kiss. Her body was like a vine, clinging to him naturally as they intertwined and left her room together without even closing the door.

Then, from the hallway came that woman's exaggerated moans, panting, and a whole bunch of lewd gibberish.

She listened, wishing she were deaf.

At last, that woman shouted dramatically, "Good... good... harder... even harder..." As she spoke, her body trembled with anger. In the end, she couldn't hold it in any longer and burst into tears, a few escaping down her cheeks!

This was the first time she had truly heard him making love with another woman!

But that's enough for once!

Ron Ling, you're ruthless, you're so ruthless!

Lin Meng, you can't keep acting like this! You are pathetic and should not be around him.

With no pen and paper around, she tore off the sleeve of her own shirt, then bit her finger and, while crying, wrote with the blood dripping from her fingertips.

Rong Ling, thank you for your kindness, but I don't need it! I'm leaving!

Frantically tearing off a piece of cloth, she wrapped it around her still bleeding finger. Then, she slipped into the bathroom to wash her face. She wouldn't let him see the tears falling because of him, wouldn't let him see her vulnerability. She left, walking with a straight back, refusing to give him the satisfaction of seeing her crumble!

When she came out of the bathroom, she waited a while longer. The woman's moans gradually subsided. She thought, this is probably over. So, she walked out.

In the corridor, a woman in disheveled clothes gasped for breath weakly, leaning against the wall with flushed cheeks, looking like she had been deeply loved. Rong Ling was also in disarray, his pants loose and crumpled, clearly showing signs of exertion!

She looked into his eyes, and a sharp pain stabbed her. She forced it down, biting her lip and clenching her jaw as she walked closer.

He saw her come out, his icy gaze following immediately. His eyes were deep and profound, unreadable, and she didn't want to see through them either.

She walked up to the two men. The woman started giggling coquettishly, displaying her allure and provocatively glaring at Lin Meng with one eye. Then, extending her fair wrist, she draped it seductively over Rong Ling's shoulder. Her nearly-naked body followed closely, leaning against Rong Ling's chest!

Damn dog!

She cursed inwardly, her eyes welling up with tears. With a wave of her hand, she glared at Rong Ling resentfully, hurling the blood-stained cloth strip towards him. She wished nothing more than to slap his face hard.

He casually caught the cloth strip she had hurled at him with a mighty force. His flying eyebrows arched slightly, hinting at laziness, as he pulled open the cloth. The blood-written words stabbed his eyes, causing them to narrow suddenly. After just a glance, his gaze shifted to her fingertip, haphazardly bandaged by the cloth strip.

She glared at him one last time, then strode away.ight had not been in vain."Let's go eat something delicious! I love delicious food!" Her eyes sparkled, she looked like a little child, cute and adorable, then she pounced on Rong Ling, hugging him ti...
