041

A groan escaped Xu Zhe's mouth, and then he opened his eyes with difficulty.

He felt as if his head was being hit by dozens of small hammers at the same time, and was in danger of exploding at any time. It felt as if every inch of his skin, muscles, and bones were filled with dense steel needles, pricking him so hard that he felt like he was dying.

He hissed and took a deep breath, not knowing why he became like this.

My eyelids are so heavy!

Less than a minute after opening his eyes, he closed them again powerlessly. It was so painful, as if his whole body was about to break apart at any moment. He didn't even have the strength to open his eyes.

"Are you awake?"

A familiar voice suddenly came to his ears, and Xu Zhe forced himself to open his eyes again.

After his eyes focused, he gritted his teeth and squeezed out two words, "Bitch."

He remembered it all, it was her doing.

"Oh, you still have the energy to scold me, which means the lesson is not enough." Jiang Yan said, and swung the whip in his hand.

Snap! As soon as the whip touched the flesh, the skin and flesh were immediately torn apart. The piercing pain made the veins on Xu Zhe's head bulge and cold sweat broke out.

He wanted to dodge the whip, but found that he could not move at all.

What's going on?!

His eyes widened, and only then did he realize that his gaze had been fixed on the ceiling.

He tried hard to turn his head and saw that his wrists were tied to the head of the bed with iron chains. No wonder he couldn't move.

Xu Zhe's eyes were bloodshot, what did she want to do, what on earth was she going to do!!!

Jiang Yanyi whipped Xu Zhe a few more times, and each time it hurt so much that he wanted to shrink into a shrimp, but he couldn't because of the restrictions on his hands and feet.

Blood gushed out of the opened wound, staining the pink whip in Jiang Yanyi's hand red.

When Jiang Yan saw Xu Zhe's resentful eyes, he stopped his hand considerately and asked him: "I see you seem to have something to say? Just say it, after all, the less you say, the better." Alas, as expected, he was still too kind.

"But..." She weighed the whip in her hand, "You know, I hate people who talk too much, and I hate people who swear even more. If I meet someone I hate, I will be unhappy. If I am unhappy, then someone will be in big trouble. You, understand what I mean?" After saying this, she showed a smile that she thought was very gentle and understanding.

"..." The word "bitch" had already rushed to the tip of Xu Zhe's tongue. Seeing her playing with the whip in her hand, his body shuddered involuntarily, and he swallowed the dirty words that were about to come out of his mouth back into his stomach.

Devil, she must be a devil.

He quickly put on a different face, with a sad expression and lingering eyes. "Wife, what are you doing? Stop making trouble, okay? This is not fun at all. Do you have any misunderstandings about me? Please help me solve them and I will explain it to you slowly, okay? Be good and obedient. I love you, wife, I love you the most."

Seeing that Jiang Yanyi's expression seemed to relax, Xu Zhe's eyes lit up and felt that there was a chance. He immediately increased his intensity and performed with tears in his eyes: "Wife, I don't know what's wrong with you. You were obviously not like this before. You said that the first time you saw me, you knew that I would be the one to accompany you for the rest of your life. You said that you would be with me in this life, the next life and the next life. You would have many children with me and cook for me for the rest of your life. You will always care about me, take care of me and indulge me. I am the person you care about most in the world. Have you forgotten all this?" It seemed that he was so deeply in love that he could not control himself. As he spoke, tears really fell. A grown man looked at Jiang Yanyi with tearful eyes, ardently longing for her to soften her heart.

Forgot? No, how could I have forgotten?!

Jiang Yanyi cannot, will not, and dare not forget. The original owner had so devoutly placed a sincere and passionate heart in front of him, and even gave up herself for him, but the end she got was disdain. He treated her love like a worn-out shoe, throwing it on the ground and trampling on it at will. How could she forget, how dare she forget!

The funny thing is, she didn't forget, and always thought that he had forgotten, so he didn't care about her love and dedication. But not only did he not forget, he still remembered it better than anyone else. He just simply didn't care. Because he didn't care, he could ignore, be annoyed, and even hurt her without any scruples.

Until his death, the original owner was wondering what he had done wrong that caused such a huge change in his behavior.

It turned out that it wasn't her problem at all. The only reason was that he was a heartless beast.

Jiang Yan's expression suddenly turned cold, and she swung the whip towards Xu Zhe's mouth.

Xu Zhe was in great pain and wanted to curse but couldn't. He could only sob and stare at her.

Jiang Yanyi said slowly under his angry, accusing gaze: "Thank goodness you remember it clearly, so this is a reward for your good memory." She only felt nauseous and wanted to vomit when she heard him recall the past.

"?!" Xu Zhe felt like he was going crazy. How could there be such an unreasonable woman?

"Well, for the sake of our marriage, I'll give you a chance to reframe your words. Opportunities don't always come, so please think carefully before you speak."

The undisguised malice in her words made Xu Zhe's heart tremble. He finally realized clearly that she was not joking with him, she would really torture him or even kill him.

She has changed. She is no longer the woman who treated him as her life and was always submissive in front of him.

Thinking of this, Xu Zhe realized that it would be impossible to win her sympathy and kindness by simply playing the emotional card, so he had to change his thinking.

"Are you out of things to say? If not, then let's stop here for today. I'm tired of listening anyway."

"Wuwuwu..." Seeing Jiang Yan turn around and prepare to leave, Xu Zhe's forehead was throbbing with anxiety. He ignored the pain in his mouth and pounded the bed with his fist to attract her attention while speaking with difficulty, "Don't... don't go, I'll... say..."

Jiang Yan stopped as expected when he heard that, turned around, crossed his arms over his chest, looked at him calmly, raised his chin slightly, and signaled him to fart quickly.

"Wife, I don't know why you suddenly changed, but no matter what, as you said, we are husband and wife. If you want me to die, you should let me die knowingly, right?" Seeing Jiang Yanyi's face slowly turning cold, Xu Zhe immediately realized that he had said the wrong thing again, so he quickly changed his words and said, "Okay, okay, I won't say this."

He mumbled, swallowing nervously, afraid that if he accidentally said the wrong word he would upset her again. "I was wrong, I really know I was wrong, I shouldn't have treated you like that, I'm a beast, worse than pigs and dogs, how about this, you let me go, I'll go to the police station to turn myself in this afternoon, no no no, I'll turn myself in right away, okay? I'll go tell the police that I was domestic violence against you at home, I'm not a human being, I deserve to spend the rest of my life in jail. Honey, isn't it dirty for you to hit someone like me? If you accidentally beat me to death, you'll be held legally responsible. It's not worth it. My life is not worth you sacrificing yourself, right?"

Faced with life and death, Xu Zhe's mind had never worked so fast as it did now.

"Hit?" Jiang Yanyi shook her head as if she had heard something unbelievable and funny. "Why do you think I'm hitting you? How can a husband and wife talk about hitting? We're clearly having a romantic relationship. Isn't this your favorite kind of sex? Look at what's on me. Isn't that proof that you enjoy this activity?" She lifted her sleeves and showed him her arm, which was bruised with a hint of dark yellow. "The police can handle murder, arson, robbery, and fraud, but they can't handle romantic relationships."

"It's all thanks to you, otherwise I wouldn't have known this activity was so fun."

Snap, Xu Zhe was whipped on the leg again.

"Oh, I'm so sorry, my hand just slipped." Jiang Yanyi covered her mouth and pretended to be surprised. If it weren't for the curve of her mouth that she couldn't suppress, it would look like she really didn't do it accidentally. "By the way, honey, do you like the color of the whip I chose for you? It's pink. If you don't like it, I also prepared seven colors for you: red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and purple. Don't be too touched, this is what I should do as your wife."

"Oh, by the way, if you don't like whips, don't worry, I've also prepared a ruler and a cane. Oh, I almost forgot, your favorite thing is boxing, don't worry, I've also prepared the boxing tools for you, are you touched?"

Jiang Yanyi excitedly took out a large box from the cabinet. Just as she said, there were a dazzling array of tools and all kinds of props inside.

Jiang Yan put on the pink boxing gloves and banged his hands together, "Tsk tsk, they feel really good. They are no wonder they were custom-made for you at such a high price. How about this, let's test their quality."

An ominous premonition suddenly flashed through Xu Zhe's mind.

Sure enough, the next second, his premonition came true.

The sound of punches hitting flesh, "bang bang bang," made one's teeth ache. Jiang Yanyi kept waving his fists, as focused as a boxer in the ring. In the end, he even jumped up with excitement.

Fists rained down on Xu Zhe's stomach, chest, and even face. He wanted to struggle and resist, or at least hold his head with his hands to protect his vital parts. However, his hands and feet were locked, and he was unable to resist at all, and could only be slaughtered.

After being hit countless times, Xu Zhe's head was like an onion, and his whole body was covered with bruises and there was not a single piece of intact skin.

Just when his head was dizzy and he even saw double, he finally heard Jiang Yanyi muttering to himself and stopped.

"It's really fun. No wonder you can't stop every time. It turns out boxing is so fun. I've decided to play with you again tomorrow."

She unilaterally pronounced his sentence.

"Let...let me go, please...let...me go, I was wrong, I was really wrong, I beg you to forgive me..." Xu Zhe was breathing out more than breathing in, and his words were intermittent.

Jiang Yan took off her gloves and threw them away casually, saying in surprise: "No way, no way, how come you are so weak? Where did all that protein powder you took go? Was it all in vain? Look at me before, I got beaten by you so many times, but I still got up to wash clothes and cook for you? Tsk, why are you so useless?" Her tone was three parts surprise and three parts disgust, with an almost innocent cruelty.

"Isn't it time for you to exercise? If you're this weak, no one will want you in the future."

Xu Zhe: “…” Why doesn’t she just die!

"Oh, I see. You're scolding me with your eyes, and the scolding is quite ugly. I originally thought that you should be hungry and thirsty after playing with me for so long, so I was going to feed you. But since you hate me so much, you definitely don't want to eat what I feed you. How does the saying go? Yes, the poor don't accept charity. A handsome guy like you must think the same. What a pity! It looks like I'll have to enjoy dinner alone tonight."

As for him, let him starve.

Men go hungry for three days, women go hungry for seven days, and the old lady can go hungry for half a month. She believes that it will be okay for him to skip one or two meals.

"Okay, I won't disturb your rest. See you tomorrow. I hope you can impress me tomorrow and let me have more fun." Jiang Yanyi blew him a kiss and walked out humming a tune.

tomorrow……

The light in Xu Zhe's eyes shattered and extinguished little by little until it was completely invisible.
