Jiang Ranran tried hard to break free, but Meng Zhen's men held her tightly, and no matter how hard Jiang Ranran tried, it was of no use.
"Let me go! You bastards!" Jiang Ranran cursed, his eyes widened and veins bulged on his neck.
Meng Xianchen had been beaten to the point of being disabled for life by them. Jiang Ranran wished she could tear them apart with her own hands to avenge Meng Xianchen!
"Stop struggling, it's useless. You are so excited, it must be because you haven't seen enough good shows. I can show you again." Meng Zhen said, slowly raising his hand, signaling the guys who abused Meng Xianchen to continue raising their sticks.
Jiang Ranran was stunned for a moment, her whole body stiffened, "No, don't!"
"On the count of one, two, three, if you kowtow and beg for mercy, I'll let Meng Xianchen go. Otherwise, I'll have to beat him to death. All the bones in his body are broken, and all that's left is..." Meng Zhen looked at Meng Xianchen and continued, "Oh, only the skull is left. The next step is to smash it."
She is going to kill someone!
If Meng Xianchen were hit on the head by so many sticks, he would be either stupid or idiotic!
Jiang Ranran didn't hesitate at all. The man lying on the ground was Gu Tingchen's best friend, who had saved Jiang Ranran's life many times. Not to mention kneeling down and kowtow to Meng Zhen, even if Jiang Ranran had to sacrifice his life for it, he would still do it!
"Okay! I will kneel down and kowtow to you, as long as you don't hurt Meng Xianchen!" Jiang Ranran agreed loudly.
Afterwards, the men who had captured Jiang Ranran also let go of their hands. Jiang Ranran staggered and almost fell to his knees on the ground.
"Lusha..." Jiang Ranran called her name.
"Call me Meng Zhen..." Meng Zhen was already sitting on a chair brought by her subordinates, staring at Jiang Ranran with contempt. She looked down at him, as if she was looking at an inferior creature.
"Meng Zhen, I kowtow to you, please don't hurt Meng Xianchen." Jiang Ranran knelt, her forehead lightly touching the ground. She felt extremely humiliated, but it was all worth it. She did not regret making such a decision!
But Meng Zhen raised her toes in contempt, turned her face away and deliberately made things difficult for Jiang Ranran: "Are you kowtowing? Why didn't I hear any sound?"
Jiang Ranran instantly understood what Meng Zhen meant, and then slammed her forehead hard on the ground with a bang.
Meng Zhen obviously heard the voice, and a hint of pleasure and pride flashed across his eyes.
"That's not enough. If I don't stop you, you will keep kowtow!" Meng Zhen said with a vicious look on his face.
Jiang Ranran just obeyed. As long as Meng Zhen didn't hurt Meng Xianchen, she would keep kowtow, even if she turned into a vegetable. In this way, she could stay with Gu Tingchen forever.
The sound of banging was endless. Meng Zhen started with a smug smile, and ended with a hearty laugh.
"Hahaha, Jiang Ranran, I never thought you would have this day!" Meng Zhen stood up, walked to Jiang Ranran who was still kowtowing, and stepped on Jiang Ranran's hands that were supporting themselves on the ground.
Meng Zhen stepped hard on the snow-white and delicate little hand. Jiang Ranran stopped kowtowing when she felt the pain.
"Keep going!" Meng Zhen stepped even harder, and Jiang Ranran seemed to hear the sound of her fingers breaking.
She endured the severe pain and continued to kowtow. A hot and wet liquid flowed down from her forehead and then dripped onto the ground. Jiang Ranran saw the color of the liquid, which was a glaring bright red. Her head was bleeding.
Even so, Jiang Ranran did not stop her movements, and the banging sounds made people feel muffled.
It wasn't until Jiang Ranran's blood accidentally touched Meng Zhen's trouser leg that Meng Zhen kicked Jiang Ranran to the ground in disgust, cursing viciously, "Enough! Dirty thing."
Jiang Ranran leaned back and fell directly to the ground, his consciousness becoming blurred.
Faintly, she heard Meng Zhen complaining in a bored voice, "There are only four of us, and we're running out of steam so soon? Gu Tingchen is in a vegetative state, Meng Xianchen is half dead, and this old guy and Jiang Ranran have both fainted."
"Someone, take these people away from me." Meng Zhen gave an order, and Jiang Ranran only felt the rustling sound of footsteps coming from the room, and then she was lifted up and walked outside.
The violent trembling made Jiang Ranran's consciousness begin to become blurred.
When she woke up again, she saw a pure white ceiling in front of her. She wanted to sit up, but found that she had a splitting headache and the slightest movement made her dizzy.
"Where am I?" Jiang Ranran raised his hand and gently supported his forehead.
At this time, an old voice was heard, "This is the Meng family. We are locked in the basement." The person who spoke was Old Man Meng. Jiang Ranran could tell from the voice, but the voice was much older.
Jiang Ranran moved his neck and tried hard to turn his head to see the direction where the sound came from.
But as soon as she moved a little, she felt nauseous and wanted to vomit.
"Don't look at me, kid. It's me. You must have a concussion now. You are seriously injured." There was some kindness in Mr. Meng's voice, but also a lot of sadness.
Jiang Ranran recalled the scene before she fainted. She kowtowed to Meng Zhen so madly that her forehead bled a lot. It would be strange if she didn't have a concussion.
Even if Jiang Ranran just moved his eyes, he felt dizzy and dark.
"Uncle, how are Meng Xianchen and Gu Tingchen now?" Jiang Ranran thought of Meng Xianchen's miserable condition, and her heart ached. She didn't know how he was doing.
But as soon as Jiang Ranran asked the question, Mr. Meng fell silent for a while.
"Uncle?" Jiang Ranran didn't dare to turn his neck, so he had to ask again.
Old Master Meng's voice began to choke. "Don't ask. I think Chenchen is useless now. All the joints in his body are broken, and his bones are comminuted. Now only his head is fine. Isn't this making him suffer?"
Hearing this, Jiang Ranran's tears instantly rolled down her eyes and dripped onto the ground along her cheeks.
"It's all my fault. I failed to protect Meng Xianchen." Jiang Ranran couldn't imagine how devastated Meng Xianchen would be when he woke up and saw her like this.
Old Master Meng wiped his tears and sobbed, "It's not your fault. You almost killed yourself in order to save Chenchen. My child, your uncle appreciates your kindness. If I ever turn things around, I will be the first to repay you and Gu Tingchen!"
"Uncle, don't say that. Meng Xianchen has saved my life more than once. We are mutually grateful. I don't want anything. I just hope that Meng Xianchen can stand up in the future. I'm really afraid that he will give up on himself and give up on life." Jiang Ranran said with a worried look on his face.
