That night, Shangguan Wan didn’t know what time the torture ended.

  It had been about five years since they had separated. He didn’t cherish her at all, venting all of his desires on her as he tortured and punished her.

  Every minute and second felt like hell to her.

  Shangguan Wan had never thought that a Lieutenant like her would become like this!

  In the end, it was only because she had fainted due to exhausted that stopped this neverending punishment.

  Perhaps, it might not be counted as a punishment. When she liked him, him doing this would make her feel and enjoy this. But when she disliked him, there was only the pain and suffering for the both of them!

  After Shangguan Wan fainted, Ye Yanfeng glanced out of the window, watching as a shadow finally left.

  He got up from the bed to go bring a pail of water out from the bathroom.

  Using a towel, he wiped her clean.

  Her hair was drenched from sweat and clung to her reddened cheeks. Ye Yanfeng helped her brush it away before he wiped the sweat off her face.

  Staring at her red and swollen lips, he used his fingers to lightly wipe of the water on them. “Hate me. You can only live properly in the future if you hate me!”
……

  Noting the servant who was tasked to listen to Ye Yanfeng and Shangguan Wan’s conversation, the main butler brought him to Ye Fengshu’s study. Ye Fengshu was sitting on the sofa smoking. Hearing someone enter the room, he turned around. “Are they acting?”


  The servant kneels on the floor, replying respectfully, “Master, they aren’t acting. Young Master really forced himself on her. That woman is very headstrong, but she still fainted from Young Master’s administrations on her!”


  Ye Fengshu glanced at the main Butler. “He always liked Shangguan Wan. Now that he actually changed to torturing her to make her hate him to the core, would there be something behind it?”


  The main butler pondered for a few seconds before he said, “Maybe Young Master has thought things through now and knows that it would be impossible between them, so he changed his behavior!”


  Ye Fengshu smirked coldly. “It’s good if he gave up on Shangguan Wan earlier. It would be impossible for the two of them to be together in this lifetime. If Shangguan Wan found out about that, they wouldn’t be here today and would be long over!”


  “Master, are you referring to back then……”


  Ye Fengshu made a gesture to stop the butler from speaking, shooting him a glance. “Go out, all of you!”


  “Understood.”
……

  The next day, Ye Yanfeng was woken up by the main butler.

  Ye Fengshu wanted to bring Ye Yanfeng to look around the military base, before he introduced the important members of the group to him.

  Before Ye Yanfeng left, he left a note for Shangguan Wan to tell her to stay in the room obediently.

  When Shangguan Wan woke up, the sun was shining brightly above the base.

  The main butler brought several servants in. Shangguan Wan was showering in the bathroom, not coming out even after hearing the noise.

  The main butler knew that Ye Yanfeng had tortured Shangguan Wan for a very long time last night, so he got servants to change and wash the bedsheets.

  Seeing blood on the blanket, the servants were extremely surprised. “Butler, look.”


  Glancing at the blood stain, the main butler furrowed his eyebrows. “Go and bring that woman over.”


  Shangguan Wan pulled the door open, walking out with her cane.

  The main butler pointed at the blood. “Is this yours or Young Master’s?”


  Shangguan Wan pursed her lips tightly and said nothing.

  The main butler said to the servant, “Pull her shirt apart to see if she’s injured.”


  Before the servants could stand in front of Shangguan Wan, they were waved away by Shangguan Wan’s cane.

  Staring at Shangguan Wan, who had made the servants lost consciousness straight away, the main butler took out his gun and aimed it at Shangguan Wan’s head. “I don’t care who you were before. Now that you’re here, you’re only a lowly servant that is nothing! You’re quite skilled in fighting. From how I see it, the blood doesn’t belong to you and belongs to Young Master!”


  The main butler called two bodyguards in. “Take her to the slaves’ room for the in-charge to teach her properly!” As the thought of something, he got another person to bring a pair of handcuffs, cuffing Shangguan Wan’s hands together. “Bring her away!”
……

  Shangguan Wan was sent to the washing room.

  The SSS group had formed an anti-government military troop, so the washing room servants were where they washed the training soldiers’ clothes everyday.

  There were about twenty women in the washing room. There weren’t any washing machines in the room, so everything had to be washed by hand.

  After Shangguan Wan was brought over, the in-charge didn’t even care if she was injured, assigning her with the most work straight away.

  If she didn’t complete the tasks, she wouldn’t have anything to eat.

  Shangguan Wan’s wrists were still cuffed together, so she couldn’t wash quickly at all. The moment she slowed down a little, the in-charge would use his rattan whip and whip her back ruthlessly.

  Shangguan Wan had never been so humiliated before!

  All of this was because of that devil, Ye Yanfeng!

  The in-charge stood at the side, staring at Shangguan Wan’s fair and smooth hands. Although only her eyes were exposed, he could still tell that she was a beauty.

  Instead of hitting Shangguan Wan, he looked down at her as he said, “Come to my room tonight. I’ll prepare something delicious for you.”


  He was speaking the dialect here, so Shangguan Wan couldn’t understand what he was saying. However, from his obscene gaze, Shangguan Wan could tell what he wanted.

  She ignored the in-charge, looking down instead to wash the clothes……

  Ye Yanfeng followed Ye Fengshu around the military base.

  In his heart, he was holding down his surprise. The high-tech weapons and equipment here were not lesser than that of a small country.

  After they were done touring the secret base, Ye Fengshu brought Ye Yanfeng to the training field. Staring at the training soldiers, Ye Yanfeng nodded. “It’s no wonder why SSS group could make people so fearful. Father, the Queen is really ignoring a genius by not making you the Crown Prince!”


  Ye Fengshu smirked coldly, turning towards Ye Yanfeng with anger in his eyes. “I helped you pave your way, but you were too useless to win over that jinx. If not, would Ye Fengjun and his son still be in the Royal family?”


  Ye Yanfeng looked down, no longer speaking.

  Ye Fengshu suppressed his unhappiness and anger, patting Ye Fengshu’s shoulder once. “But, it’s alright. I still have another plan. As long as you follow and listen to me, you will rise above everyone else in the future!”
……

  Shangguan Wan had washed clothes for the entire day. She was able to endure every exhausting and tiring training in the past. However, washing clothes for those people in the training field was another thing. The abhorrent scent of bad odors laced with other scents almost killed her with how bad they reeked.

  When she was done, her already-uncomfortable body ached even more.

  All of the other servants had already eaten and returned to their rooms. Once Shangguan Wan was done with everything, she gritted her teeth and got up.

  By now, her legs were numb from sitting too long, her body shaking unstably. At this moment, a muscular arm reached out to her.

  Shangguan Wan turned around and met the in-charge’s obscene and perverted eyes.

  Gritting her teeth, Shangguan Wan avoided the in-charge’s arm, walking out with her jaw tense.

  However, very quickly, the in-charge caught up to her and stopped in front of her. “Didn’t we agree this morning that we would play tonight? See, I’ve prepared something very nice for you.” He took out a steamed corn from his arms.

  Staring at his dirty hands, Shangguan Wan felt her stomach turning inside out.
