He shook his slightly aching hand and looked at the person beside him.

"I know you guys are greedy, so I'll give her to you as a reward after I take her back. Don't be shy, just play with her as much as you want until she gets pregnant. Once she's pregnant, she'll be our treasure, and no one can touch her anymore. Lu family, I can finally take my revenge."

The bald man looked in the direction of the Lu family's residence, his face fierce.

Lu Shen didn't think much of the text message; instead, he felt relieved.

Li Anran woke up in a basement, so dark that she couldn't see her hand in front of her face.

She was stripped naked and curled up in a corner.

She cried helplessly, but was pinned to the ground by several burly men.

She was violated in the darkness, but she didn't know who her attacker was.

Repeated fainting spells, repeated torment.

Her whole body ached as if it were falling apart.

Someone bit her hard, someone broke her fingers, and someone whipped her until she was covered in bruises.

Every day, a doctor comes to apply medicine, relieve pain, and examine her.

She saw the first rays of sunlight when she was diagnosed with pregnancy.

She didn't dare to move an inch.

Someone helped her wash up and get dressed, and fed her bird's nest.

She accepted it numbly.

“Once you return to the Lu family, you will have leverage. No matter how much you hate this child, you will do everything in your power to ensure its birth. I believe you can do that. After all, you and I are both people who will stop at nothing to achieve our goals.”

The bald man stepped forward to kiss Li Anran, but she turned her head away to avoid it.

He slapped him across the face.

"From now on, remember to be obedient. Otherwise, all your brothers will miss you."

Li Anran trembled upon hearing this, remaining motionless as the cold kiss landed on her lips.

"Send her back to the Lu family."
