It seems that every time you open the door to Shen Qin's room, you see a very interesting scene, and they are never the same.

Martin's morning belongs to...

"Oh, are you alright, Miss Chen Qin?"

Looking at Shen Qin, who was both weak and frantic at his feet, Xu Shi feigned surprise and covered his mouth, "What's wrong... what do you want me to give you?"

"Give me……"

Shen Qin barely had the strength to speak, but she managed to reach out her hand towards the food cart behind him.

"So you'd better make it clear, what do you want me to give you?"

Xu Shi blocked her way with a puzzled look, spreading his hands and adopting a Tang Monk-like tone, "Just say what you want. How am I supposed to know what you want if you don't tell me? Even though you're looking at me very sincerely, you still need to tell me clearly what you want..."

"...Give me something to eat!"

Shen Qin couldn't stand his nagging anymore and shouted it out with all her might. It was clear that people are more likely to become irritable when they are hungry, and if she encountered someone like Xu Shi, she probably would want to die.

"Oh, I see."

Upon hearing her say that, Xu Shi nodded as if he had suddenly realized something.

Then he waved his hand very seriously, "No, you can't."

"...?"

Shen Qin's pupils constricted instantly.

"You said it yourself, even if you die here, you won't eat a single thing from me."

Xu Shi squatted down and patiently explained to her, "I personally admire your ambition very much, so I'm helping you. But don't thank me, I'll be proud."

"No, don't..."

Seeing him get up to leave, Shen Qin panicked and grabbed his trouser leg tightly, pleading, "Give me something to eat...please..."

If she didn't eat soon, she felt that something really bad might happen to her.

To be fair, a normal human can go without food for a maximum of two weeks, and for an "upgraded being," that time would be even longer.

That's why she was so confident before. Regardless of whether the hunger strike would be effective, she should at least show her attitude... Who would have thought that in just over a week, she would be tortured to the point of death?

The reason she became like this is actually due to Xu Shi's modification of her body—besides preventing her from having any murderous thoughts towards Xu Shi, Xu Shi also thoughtfully made another consideration.

She cannot commit suicide.

This is why, even after so long, Miss Shen Qin has not done anything to prove her innocence by dying—not only because she still harbors the obsession Shen He left her, but more importantly because of the strict restrictions Xu Shi imposed on her.

She had tried similar things before, but each time before she could even do anything, her body's sensitivity would automatically increase, followed by a surge of bioelectricity throughout her body.

The final result was nothing but water stains all over the floor... Just look at the mottled spots in the room and you'll know.

That's not the worst part. The worst part is that all the pain she suffers will be transformed into pleasure, or even doubled, and then a portion of Shen He's memories will be erased again—that would be the most terrible punishment for Miss Shen Qin.

In this way, she had long since given up on such a thought.

But she overlooked one issue—whether going without food for a long time constitutes a form of suicide.

It was probably calculated, otherwise her body wouldn't have reacted so violently, or even uncontrollably, so quickly.

For the first three days, there were no problems, but starting from the fourth day, the urge to find food became more domineering than ever before, constantly occupying her mind.

There was nothing to eat in the room, though there was water, but drinking water alone wouldn't do much good. Their abilities were also suppressed, so they couldn't break down the door...

It would be futile to try to force her way out with willpower alone. She was completely unable to fight against her instincts. Since yesterday, she had been somewhat delirious, and even had thoughts of biting off a piece of flesh from her own arm as a desperate measure.

To be honest, the fact that she's managed to stay in this state for so long without going crazy shows how strong her will is... But if no one takes care of her, she might really end up tearing herself to pieces.

So... it's quite intriguing whether Xu Shi's choice to appear at this time was intentional or just a coincidence (doge).

"...Sigh, this meal wasn't originally prepared for you."

After leaving her waiting for a while, Xu Shi finally sighed with feigned pity and pushed the food cart in. "But since you've begged me, I'll let you have something to eat, okay?"

Master Xu is kind-hearted and cannot bear to see such things.

So he casually picked up a plate, then flicked his wrist and poured the food on the ground.

"Come on, eat up."

"..."

Such behavior was absolutely humiliating, and Shen Qin naturally had no intention of obediently complying.

Unfortunately, in her current state, how could she possibly compete with Xu Shi? Driven by extreme hunger, her instincts overcame her reason, causing her to eat recklessly.

"Mmm...delicious...smells so good..."

Indeed, you'll never know how delicious food is until you're starving.

Xu Shi sat on the bed, listening to her Jingze-style speech, and a pleasant smile appeared on his face.

"I told you before, not eating anything will only harm you."

He crossed his legs and shook his head with feigned emotion, "If you had listened to me earlier, you wouldn't have suffered like this."

"You mustn't do that again."

Xu Shi used the tip of his shoe to lift her chin. "A little piece of advice: never punish yourself to show off to others. You'll only hurt yourself if you do that."

"You've forgotten about your brother again, haven't you? Look at that, it's not good."
