Chapter 72: Beating the Man to Crying

Before he could show too much fear, Shen Qinian picked up the black cloth and gently covered his eyes.

After finishing the conversation, she patted his head soothingly.

Instead of comforting him, it made him even more flustered. He wanted to lie down, but the chain on his chest was lifted by the whip handle.

"Bite it."

After biting, the chain was pulled to the limit, and the only way to relieve the pain was to kneel upright and keep your head down.

He was not allowed to move at all. If he moved, the clamp would be pulled off, which would be terrible and would hurt him to death.

He held the chain nervously in his mouth, and just as he was about to put his hands behind his back, something cold leather touched his back.

Chen Ci Nian gently reminded him, "Just let your hands hang down by your sides."

After he got into position, Shen Cinian's voice finally turned cold and stern.

"You're putting your virginity up for auction. If I had been caught up in the situation yesterday and couldn't get here in time, how would you have ended it?"

How this will end... I haven't thought about it. Worst case, I'll just regret it.

He didn't answer, just bit his lower lip.

"Don't hold your lips like that," Chen Ci said, "I'm afraid you won't be able to bear it and bite your lips too hard."

Fang Ke loosened his teeth and said in a muffled voice: "Can't you be gentler..."

It's not a light matter, he doesn't intend to feel bad.

"Be good," but he could comfort the puppy. He gently touched the dog's face and said, "Don't bargain. You did such a stupid thing. If I don't beat you to death, it will be a light punishment."

Still not comforted, Fang Ke clenched his fists at his sides, his whole body on guard to resist the coming pain.

But the pain did not come to me.

Shen Ci Nian stood beside him, and said in a low voice: “I’m afraid you won’t accept it, so I’ll explain it to you first.”

"Answer me, what would you have done if I hadn't shown up last night?"

Answering while biting the chain is simply making things difficult for people. Every time you speak, the chain moves, and every time the chain moves, the clamp moves. The pain is delicate and long-lasting.

Shen Cinian must have done this on purpose. After today, he will probably be forced to leave a deep impression...

He replied vaguely, "I can regret it and cancel the deal. The worst that can happen is I'll lose money."

"It took you three years to build the Night Pearl. You personally set all the rules and regulations. Now, answer me immediately what your original intention was."

"..." Fang Ke was silent for a long time, then lowered his head even lower. "The circle is very chaotic. There are those who take advantage of the situation, those who are shady, and those who bully others by taking advantage of their power. It's not uncommon for spirit masters and powerful people to use the name of the game to slaughter subs. So..."

"Night Pearl is a coordinate in the deep sea. It has order and rules, and implements a strictly reviewed membership and assessment system. Doms are assessed on their skills and character to join, and subs undergo a full physical examination and psychological assessment to join. Relying on the relationship between Night Pearl and you, when doms and subs sign a contract, they must sign it under the seal of your group. Although the contract is not legally binding, no one will attempt to challenge your authority."

"You did a great job, I saw it," Shen Qinian acknowledged and praised him at this moment, but then he questioned him mercilessly, "If you had really gone back on your word last night, if Ye Mingzhu had really broken the originally established order in front of so many people, no matter how well you had done before, it would have been useless after last night."

"I allow you to break the rules and defy authority, because the rules in this world are not necessarily correct, just like the oppression the Security Bureau put on you. That's what I said three years ago."

Fang Ke calmed down and replied, "You said, don't pay attention, just follow your pace. I'll do a dungeon every Saturday. Please accompany me and help me level up."

"Incorrect rules can be broken or even re-established, but what you were about to break last night was your own order. Do you think they are wrong?"

"no……"

"So your nonchalant attitude just now was telling me that your Night Pearl is dispensable, right?"

How could it be possible...

He just…didn't realize it could be serious.

"...No, I don't think so." The puppy lowered his head and spoke in a soft tone. It seemed that he really understood the seriousness of the problem.

So Shen Cinian rubbed his head again, rewarding him for his awakening in time and at the same time determining the punishment.

Maybe not a punishment.

Shen Qinian swept the tip of the willow leaf across Fang Ke's smooth shoulder and gently placed it there. His tone was quite gentle: "The Night Pearl is yours. It is up to you to decide whether it exists or not. You are the manager and the rule maker. Do whatever you want. I won't punish you for it."

"Three times, just a reminder, to remind you not to become the person you hate the most in the future. The purpose of rules is to protect the weak, not to serve the strong for their own selfish interests."

The most annoying person...

Obviously, it is those who are high and mighty today's rule makers.

If Chen Cinian hadn't protected him, perhaps he would still be exhausting his energy going to dungeons day and night, bringing back what they needed but getting nothing in return, and even having to take the blame for them and endure those unwarranted insults.

If it weren't for Chen Ci Nian, perhaps he would have died long ago. This world was a little dark to him, like being at the bottom of a twisted deep sea. If he hadn't grabbed his driftwood at the most critical age, perhaps he would have become a pile of corpse mud at the bottom of the sea.

He made it ashore, but what about the others who are still struggling?

Why does his night-shining pearl exist?

How can I forget my original intention?

Shen Cinian stopped talking and just whipped the ball in the air to test the feel. Then the second whip exploded, leaving a blood-red mark from the left shoulder to the right waist through the butterfly bone.

it hurts……

When the eyes are covered, the other senses become extra sensitive.

Chen Cinian did not rush to whip Fang Ke. He leaned over and hugged Fang Ke so that Fang Ke could have someone to rely on while the pain was still there.

"Just a reminder," Shen Chenian stroked him, comforted him, held him in his arms, and generously gave him warmth, "If you don't want to fall into the situation where no one trusts and no one understands you, you have to try to put yourself within the rules and make yourself reliable."

"If you don't like the existing rules, make new ones. The premise is that your rules are reasonable and don't change them overnight. Don't think that a temporary concession is insignificant. A thousand-mile dam collapses because of an ant's blood. Once it happens, it will happen again. A mentality of relying on luck will always be the first ant to destroy your ambitions."

Fang Ke understood what he meant. If he didn't like the current practices of the Security Bureau, then he would reshuffle the current Security Bureau and get everything back on track.

Shen Cinian said it very clearly that he accepted the punishment, but Shen Cinian did not punish him as a master, but as a reminder as a friend.

Shen Cinian is undoubtedly the kind of reliable person who strictly adheres to his own set of rules. He is rational, wise, and always has leadership and the ability to convince others.

Fang Ke puffed out his chest and kept his back straight.

He is very proud to have such a master.

Why shouldn't he be proud? He has caught such a person in his hand, which shows that he is awesome and capable.

Shen Cinian felt the pride of the person in his arms, and was stunned for a moment, followed by a little bit of unnoticeable relief.

Fang Ke has always been a good dog. Some people used all means to tame him into a useful hunting dog, and finally drove them crazy and turned him into a vicious dog.

It's okay to be a little aggressive occasionally, it's no big deal.

Shen Cinian gave him enough psychological comfort, and then stood up. The moment he held the whip, he became the ruthless and indifferent judge again.

Understanding, sympathy, tolerance, comfort and guidance.

But don't be soft-hearted.

The next whip was just as fierce, going all the way down from the right shoulder, forming a perfect symmetry with the previous one.

The square where the two whips meet is in the center of the butterfly bone, and that piece is a beautiful dark purple.

Two whips and it turned purple, what's the concept?

Fang Ke didn't have much idea about this. He just took a deep breath and panted for a long time, unable to utter a single syllable.

Why...it hurts so much!

He put his face against Shen Cinian's left hand, which was not holding the whip, and rubbed it.

Chen Ci Nian gently stroked Fang Ke's cheek, his voice was very gentle, he asked: "Does it hurt?"

"Compared to your previous life, which one is more painful?"

Without a doubt, before.

He didn't answer, but just shed tears. It was so painful, and the tears were completely physiological and he couldn't control them.

Not even a blindfold could stop it from flowing down.

Shen Cinian wiped his tears, gently stroking his lower eyelids, and wiped away his tears bit by bit.

"If you know the pain, then learn to seek benefits and avoid harm, okay?"

It’s so gentle. I want to kiss it, I want to hold Shen Cinian’s head and nibble Shen Cinian’s mouth.

Be it rough or barbaric, the way he expresses his love is so explicit, bold and passionate.

After Chen Cinian wiped his tears, he stood up again. He switched the willow-leaf whip to his left hand and placed it horizontally on Fang Ke's butterfly bone.

The widest part in the middle completely overlaps with the square mark.

"This blow will be a little heavier than before, just for my own selfish reasons." Shen Qinian raised his hand and controlled its landing point very well, so that its mark ran horizontally through Fang Ke's entire butterfly bone.

"I selfishly don't want to see you trapped in the past, repeatedly suffering losses and sinking into depravity."

It hurts, it’s extreme pain.

It’s very enjoyable, and it’s an extremely enjoyable feeling.

Honestly, he feels very relieved and has a bright future.

Fang Ke suddenly raised the corner of his lips, and said cheerfully in an aggressive and provocative tone, "Then it's as you wish."

Very good. Shen Qinian also frowned, and when Fang Ke was about to stand up, he put a hand on Fang Ke's shoulder.

He smiled, but the smile did not reach his eyes. The oppressive feeling was too strong and did not allow Fang Ke to question it at all.

"You're allowed to get up. You don't think that this is all I want to settle with you, do you?"

What? Fang Ke was stunned for a moment. He couldn't think of anything else. Didn't running away, stealing, and selling his virginity all count? Didn't that mean he only did these three things?

Shen Cinian wouldn't want to use this as an opportunity to settle personal grudges, would he?

He won’t accept that!

He tried to stand up against the pressure on his shoulder, but the hand was as strong as a hydraulic press. No matter how hard he tried, the hand remained motionless and seemed to have no pressure at all!
