  Having thrown down the spine-chilling order, Gu Jinglian walked away, leaving the chain-bound Chu He alone in the dungeon, cold, hopeless, and dark.

  Gu Jinglian had given this order with the intention that she would relent and sign the agreement.

  Chu He heard the sound of metal clashing.

  She turned around and saw a few tall men approaching her.

  These subordinates were all trained by Gu Jinglian.

  Even if they had not inherited the man’s viciousness, they would never show her any mercy!

  Bam!

  A long whip landed viciously across her back.

  Chu He groaned. The sudden pain made her lose consciousness for a few seconds.

  The whip-wielding man exerted a decent amount of strength. The whip bit into her back, leaving a deep bloody mark.

  The thin fabric of her shirt easily split open.

  His blood-stained skin was immediately exposed to the air!

  That person was not in a hurry to whip her a second time. Instead, he took a basin of water from the side and directly emptied its content onto her back.

  Whoosh……

  “Ahhh!”


  Chu He couldn’t help but cry out in pain. Immediately after, she clenched her teeth tightly as her body twitched uncontrollably.

  The brand new wound that had been inflicted by the whip was suddenly soaked in salt water. This pain was so intense that her mind went blank!

  Chu He gritted her teeth as she looked at the contract before her. It was already wet with salt water.

  Baby Chu’s innocent smile appeared before her eyes, and her heart seemed to writhe……

  Bam!

  The whip landed heavily on her back another time.

  Chu He grunted in pain. Even the muscles on her face twitched uncontrollably.

  This kind of pain, even if she had gritted her teeth, was not something that could be easily overcome!

  What was even harder to describe was the feeling of being a prisoner!

  Gu Jinglian!

  This ruthless man!

  She never thought that this man would use such a cruel method to try and take Baby Chu away from her!

  No way!

  She would never let go!

  It was even more impossible for her to sign such a humiliating contract!

  Bam!

  “Ah……”


  Chu He finally couldn’t hold it in anymore and screamed in pain.

  Perhaps it was because she had just undergone a major surgery and was anxious to find Baby Chu, so she had tried her best to recover. In reality, she had not fully recovered at all.

  At this point, with her existing illness and new injuries, she fainted from the pain.

  Chu He’s vision turned black as she leaned forward and fell to the ground.

  “She’s fainted?!”


  The whip wielder was shocked.

  “Could she be pretending?!”


  The other man stepped forward and kicked her twice or thrice, but there was no reaction.

  It had only been three lashings, and she had already passed out.

  Seeing how tough this woman was with her words, he thought she would have been a little tougher physically.

  But still, it was reasonable.

  One should not underestimate these three lashings.

  An ordinary person would not have been able to survive even one lashing.

  Yet, she managed to endure three lashings! That’s no stroll in the park!

  Moreover, he had used a lot of force and did not hold back at all. She definitely wouldn’t have been able to take it.

  That person took a basin of salt water, grabbed her hair and splashed it on her face.

  The cold water stung, every pore on her skin shrank.
