"General?"

Jiang Tian called out to him, her tone filled with doubt.

Yuan Ye's chest heaved, and his face turned ashen.

He was reflecting on what kind of person he had actually saved.

"What were you doing just now?" he asked in a suppressed voice.

Jiang Tian said calmly, "If you need someone to warm your bed, and don't mind my humble appearance—I'm willing."

Willing to what? Yuan Ye was so angry she almost laughed.

This was the first time he had ever been so emotionally affected by a woman!

Do I lack women?

Jiang Tian answered him honestly, "I don't know."

Yuan Ye remained silent.

After reciting a passage of scripture in his mind, his emotions finally calmed down again.

"Tomorrow you will go to the fire station and help the cooks chop firewood. Chop as much as they need. If you don't finish, I will not use you for anything else."

"Furthermore, I will have guards watching you. If you dare to let slip any secrets and expose my identity, I will have the guards arrest you and throw you into the dungeon the moment you utter your first word. Then we will force-feed you a drug to make you mute and break your hands so that you cannot reveal any information to outsiders."

Jiang Tian showed no fear whatsoever, and simply nodded: "Yes."

Yuan Ye paused, stared at her, and continued, "If you can't even do a simple woodcutting job well, then don't have any illusions. I'll find a place for you—a place that will probably make you wish you were dead."

“Okay,” Jiang Tian continued.

It felt like punching cotton.

Yuan Ye's lips were pressed into a straight line.

"...You still have a chance to back out. If you give up your plan to follow me and obediently follow my orders, I will deal with you in a way that will not harm you."
