"Who are you? What is your purpose in approaching my son?!"
The lady's elegant facade was torn away, gradually revealing her true, deranged nature. Her gaze towards Ruan Tian turned venomous.
"Madam! I'm innocent! I have absolutely no relationship with the young master!"
The lady did not believe Ruan Tian's words at all; in her mental world, Bai Chulan was perfect in every way.
"You shameless woman, your purpose in getting close to my son is definitely to lust after his body!"
Ruan Tian was surprised and took two steps back. She was about to shout, "I didn't! I didn't!" but Bai Chulan's image gradually appeared in her mind.
He's so handsome, has a great physique, and his special ability is the rare light attribute, which can heal any wound.
"Hiss," Ruan Tian touched her chin and gasped, "You know what, you really shouldn't say that."
The lady snorted coldly, with an expression that said, "I knew it," and scanned Ruan Tian from head to toe with an extremely critical gaze.
"Are you good enough for my Chu Lan?"
Ruan Tian retorted, "I don't know if he's worthy or not, but as Bai Chulan's mother, putting a dog collar around your son's neck, isn't that just plain perverted?"
"You even knew about this?!"
The lady was furious. She was like a king cobra whose territory had been invaded by Ruan Tian. Her terrifying expression and those eerie white eyes made her look like she was in a horror movie.
Ruan Tian raised her hand to cover her eyes, and with lingering fear, she parted her fingers to openly peek at the lady.
"Madam, you are so perceptive! Although I know the young master's secret, our relationship is completely innocent!"
The lady remained silent, her chest heaving as she considered how to deal with Ruan Tian amidst her immense anger.
Her psychic abilities were useless against Ruan Tian; Ruan Tian was practically a bug in the system.
The lady stared at Ruan Tian for a few seconds, then calmed down. She touched her legs, which she could no longer stand up, and spoke with a grim face:
“I’ll give you ten thousand crystal cores, just leave my son.”
Ruan Tian, in a daze, heard "ten million" crystal cores. Her face showed shock, and she suddenly raised her hand to swear to the lady:
"Don't worry, Madam. As long as you give me ten million crystal cores, I will leave Young Master Bai immediately and never see him again. May we both live in peace!"
Fearing that the lady might not believe her, she added:
"Madam, I don't actually like the young master at all. I just lust after his body. As long as you give me the crystal core, I'll leave right now!"
Madam: "...I meant ten thousand crystal cores, not ten million."
Ruan Tian sat back down, her expression instantly becoming much calmer, as if she had changed her demeanor. She then spoke:
"Actually, what I just said was all a lie. Madam, I still love the young master. I can't live without him."
How could the lady possibly believe Ruan Tian's words? She gritted her teeth, only thinking about getting rid of Ruan Tian, this ticking time bomb, as soon as possible.
"Don't try anything funny with me. I'll give you another 10,000 crystal cores and get out of City C!"
A total of 20,000 crystal cores are not enough for Ruan Tian to upgrade her little cart.
"That won't do. I won't leave Bai Chulan's side for even a moment. No matter how many crystal cores you give me, it won't help."
If the lady had legs, she would definitely stand up and slap Ruan Tian hard across the face.
Sadly, her legs were cut off by her husband before the apocalypse.
The marriage between the wife and husband was a political one, and there was no love between them. So after Bai Chulan was born, her husband never returned home.
The wife went completely insane from the daily grind of being alone in her empty house and her husband's infidelity.
She started acting strangely. Unable to get love from her husband, she turned to Bai Chulan for emotional support.
The wife even found her husband's first love, sent someone to run him over, and sent his photo to her husband.
Unable to bear his wife's madness any longer, he saw his beloved white moonlight die tragically and directly picked up an axe and chopped off his wife's legs.
He then shot himself.
He knew that his wife was proud, so killing this crazy woman directly was not as good as cutting off her legs and leaving her half-dead.
Bai Chulan hid inside the wardrobe and witnessed the bloody scene.
This is an incredibly dysfunctional family, where the wife's obsession and mental control tightly ensnare Bai Chulan.
Bai Chulan was no longer a living person, but had become an object in the hands of the madam.
"What do you know? That's my love for Chu Lan."
The lady had long since gone mad. She ordered the big man to bring over more collars, all of which were made to Bai Chulan's size.
"Our Chu Lan can never leave me in this lifetime. The collar is my love for him."
It is also a shackle.
When Ruan Tian heard her say those words, her strange yet excited tone gave her goosebumps.
How strong must Bai Chulan's will be to survive in such a harsh environment with all four limbs intact?
The lady casually picked out a pearl necklace and waved it in front of Ruan Tian a couple of times.
"Isn't it beautiful? Chu Lan has fair skin and a noble appearance; the pearls complement his complexion perfectly."
The lady didn't think she had done anything wrong; in fact, she felt that this was how she showed her love for Bai Chulan.
She had long since gone mad, leaving only her obsession with Bai Chulan and her morbid love for him.
The lady pressed her cheek against the collar, rubbing it gently twice, and said with fascination:
"It's such a pity that the man is already dead, otherwise I would definitely have made him a nice collar too."
Ruan Tian rubbed her arms and took two steps back.
"I gave you a chance, but you didn't leave."
The lady suddenly looked up, staring intently at Ruan Tian, a strange smile playing on her lips.
"Since you're not leaving, then don't leave. Bai Chulan cares about you so much, I want him to see with his own eyes how I destroy you."
The lady ordered the big man to tie up Ruan Tian and take her to the basement.
After learning about Bai Chulan's past, Ruan Tian naturally couldn't let him stay by Madam's side alone.
She obediently allowed herself to be led into the basement, and even went into the cage herself, politely closing the iron bars behind her.
The lady sat in her wheelchair, staring at Ruan Tian, her eyes now black.
"The environment here is cold and damp, and there is no food. I will starve you for a week, and when you are about to die, I will let the rats eat your body."
When the time comes, I will deliver your gnawed corpse to Bai Chulan so that he can see clearly how you died.
I want Bai Chulan to know that if he disobeys, everything he cares about will die!
The lady covered her face, her laughter shrill and ghostly, like a madwoman laughing in front of Ruan Tian for a full five minutes.
He finally stopped laughing when he started gagging, and was pushed out by the big guy.
Ruan Tian sighed, "This lady is probably beyond saving."
The next second, Ruan Tian summoned the stroller, lay comfortably on it, petted the dog, and ate sweet and sour pork ribs.
Within the protective area of the stroller, it is warm in winter and cool in summer; there is no such thing as dampness or coldness!
If the lady of the house, who had suddenly returned, saw this scene, she would surely be furious!
Ruan Tian was supposed to suffer, but now she's enjoying herself.
