Wan Rou and Chi Qiangwei both showed expressions of disbelief.
Chi Qiangwei didn't want to believe it, but the facts were right in front of her, leaving her no choice but to accept it.
Wan Rou's eyes immediately reddened. "Impossible!"
The unremarkable-looking man said, "What's impossible about it? Isn't it perfectly normal to sell you all? There are plenty of women sold into this brothel by men!"
Wan Rou's tears fell down in an instant.
The unassuming man had already made his move; he grabbed her and threw her onto the bed.
Wan Rou felt a sharp pain on the back of her head when she was thrown, and she regained consciousness.
"Let me go! Let me go!"
"We're letting you go. We paid a hefty price for you!" the unassuming man said.
As he spoke, he reached out and used brute force to tear at Wan Rou's clothes. The moment her collar was ripped open, she cried out in terror.
Just as the other person's large hand tried to reach inside her clothes, Wan Rou suddenly lunged forward and bit him.
The man hissed in pain, anger flashing across his face. He raised his hand and slapped her hard across the face, instantly turning half of her cheek red.
"You shameless woman! You're being unreasonable!"
"No! Let me go! Brother! I'll give you money, okay? If my mother finds out, they won't let you get away with this!"
Wan Rou was, after all, a daughter of a wealthy family, but she underestimated these people.
How could an unattractive man let her go just because she was from a wealthy family?
“We have plenty of wealthy young ladies here, we don’t need another one like you.”
Wan Rou's eyes widened, and tears streamed down her face.
"Please, please let me go! My family is rich, my father will give you a lot of money!"
However, the unattractive man grabbed her clothes and revealed a lewd smile.
"I have plenty of money!"
The moment her clothes were torn open, a hint of despair flashed in Wan Rou's eyes.
Still tied to the pillar, Chi Qiangwei looked at Wan Rou with glistening tears in her eyes.
She closed her eyes briefly, then opened them again, broke free of the ropes binding her, and stood up.
A ball of red demonic energy swiftly shot towards the man lying on Wan Rou's body from her palm.
"ah!"
The man immediately let out a scream and saw Chi Qiangwei standing there with an indifferent expression.
"You...you don't have cartilage incense?"
Chi Qiangwei snorted, and a ball of red demonic power gathered in her palm once more.
Upon seeing this, the unremarkable-looking man widened his eyes and asked, "You...who are you...?"
He turned to run, but as soon as he reached the door, it slammed shut with a "bang".
An unremarkable-looking man leaned against the door, looking at Chi Qiangwei with a fearful expression.
"You...you stay away!"
The next second, a flash of red demonic power appeared, and blood slowly flowed from the man's trouser leg.
The man screamed and collapsed to the ground, groaning in agony.
Wan Rou had never seen Chi Qiangwei like this before, and was terrified by her appearance.
After dealing with the man, Chi Qiangwei stepped forward and grabbed Wan Rou. "Let's go!"
The next second, she was taken away by Chi Qiangwei.
...
Chi Qiangwei and Wan Rou stood on the deserted street. At this moment, Wan Rou was trembling and helplessly hugging herself.
She looked at herself, disheveled and with her clothes and hair in disarray.
She suddenly squatted down, hugged her arms, and burst into tears, crying, "Why did he do this to me? We were childhood sweethearts, and he actually sold me out!"
Upon hearing this, Chi Qiangwei gave a self-deprecating laugh, "He's probably trying to cure his own illness."
Chi Qiangwei's pain was no less than Wan Rou's, but having experienced so much, she didn't easily show her emotions.
Wan Rou cried even louder. After she finished crying, she wiped the tears from her face, looked up at her, and asked, "Why...why did you save me?"
Chi Qiangwei said, "I just don't want to see a man bullying a woman."
Upon hearing this, Wan Rou looked at Chi Qiangwei with a complex expression in her eyes.
She had always hated Chi Qiangwei, and never stopped, because Chi Qiangwei's appearance had stolen Xu An's attention.
However, she saved herself today, and Xu An, whom she had always liked, would treat her like this.
She got up, wanting to find Xu An and get some answers.
Chi Qiangwei stopped her, "Not now, let's wait until dawn. Perhaps... Li Yi can send someone to watch over us at home."
Wan Rou paused.
As dawn broke, pedestrians began to set up stalls on the streets.
Wan Rou had already changed her clothes.
As dawn broke, more and more pedestrians appeared on the streets.
Wan's mother, accompanied by several servants, came out to search for her daughter.
When Wan Rou saw her mother, she was both excited and happy, but seeing her own state, she didn't dare to go to her.
Wan's mother searched the streets. She had been restless last night, feeling that something bad was going to happen, so she went to Xu An's house early this morning.
Xu An told her that Wan Rou had left early in the morning, and she was worried, so she brought the servants from the mansion to look for her.
Then, her gaze swept to a certain spot and she saw her daughter. Her daughter was dressed appropriately, but there was a very red mark on her face, clearly indicating that she had been slapped.
"Xiaorou!"
Worried, Wan's mother rushed over.
Wan Rou threw herself into her mother's arms and cried.
"Xiaorou, who bullied you? Tell your mother quickly, and your mother will definitely teach that person a lesson for you."
Wan Rou kept crying and didn't say anything, so Wan's mother looked at Chi Qiangwei and said, "What are you doing here? Did you hit my daughter? Let me tell you, you haven't even entered the Xu family yet, and you're already trying to bully my daughter with your status as the mistress of the house."
Wan Rou quickly grabbed her mother, "Mother, you've misunderstood. I was sold to a brothel, but Chi Qiangwei saved me."
Upon hearing this, Wan's mother's eyes widened, and the anger in her chest was about to erupt.
"Who dares to sell my daughter?"
Chi Qiangwei, “…Xu An.”
"I knew he wasn't a good person!" said Wan's mother.
She looked at her daughter and said, "What did I tell you back then? I told you to come back with me and get married, but look at you now... my daughter from the Wan family was actually sold to a brothel by a poor boy."
Wan Rou lowered her head, not daring to speak.
However, Wan's mother was not the kind of person who would be easily bullied or tolerated.
Wan's mother stood there with her hands on her hips, cursing.
After hearing the whole story, the passersby lowered their heads and discussed it amongst themselves.
"I heard that ever since the Xu family's son fell into poverty and became seriously ill, the Wan family's daughter has taken care of him without ever showing any disdain. But Xu An repaid kindness with enmity and sold the Wan family's daughter to a brothel."
The mother had a loud voice, "Isn't that right? If my daughter hadn't been so clever and escaped from that filthy place, her life would have been ruined."
"This Xu An is simply inhuman!" the passersby exclaimed.
"The Wan family's daughter is his childhood sweetheart."
"Xu An is really bold. He's a sickly man who needs to be taken care of, yet he actually sold his childhood sweetheart, who supported him, to a brothel. Is he out of his mind?"
