Chapter 231
Jiang You slept soundly until dawn. There was a knock on the door. It was Theodore, who came to call her to have breakfast together.
Since she can't hurt them, she'll hurt herself. After all, they want her as the bride, right? She'll refuse to eat; if she dies, there's nothing left.
Threaten them to let her go.
She didn't threaten her with death directly because she was afraid of actually dying, didn't want to die, and was also afraid of pain. Going hungry like this was within her acceptable range.
But she was too naive; going hungry is not a comfortable thing.
Day 1.
She had some stomach discomfort, but it was bearable.
Theodore and the others knew about her refusal to eat, but said nothing.
She stayed in the room and didn't go out.
the next day.
Her stomach acid began to protest violently, gurgling loudly, and she lay dizzy on the bed.
A maid came to deliver the meal, and seeing that she didn't open the door, she said, "Put the meal at the door."
The third day.
After the maid who brought the meal left, she got out of bed, her limbs weak, opened the door, and stared at the sumptuous meal on the stool.
She squatted down, her mind working slowly, struggled for a moment, didn't eat, and went back into the house.
This is completely useless. If you don't eat, you'll only suffer. Why not eat?
Day four.
She regretted it; she regretted it.
A chill began to creep through my body, my mind went blank, and all I could think of was instinct: I'm so hungry, so hungry, so hungry...
She staggered as she opened the door, sat on the stool, and obediently waited for someone to bring her food.
No! There's no food today!! Why isn't there any food?!
Jiang You staggered to her feet and walked forward unsteadily. The woman in the corridor was very surprised to see her, after all, she hadn't seen her for three days.
Guided by memory, he arrived at the kitchen and, to the astonishment of the others, frantically rummaged through drawers and cupboards.
No, there's no food at all.
She grabbed someone: "Food, where's the food?"
The man was startled, easily broke free from her three-day-old hunger, and returned to the crowd.
Several maids, like startled chickens, huddled in a corner, watching her warily.
No one responded to her. Jiang You left the kitchen and ran into Theodore.
He lay on a sofa in the spacious hall, holding a game console.
He glanced at her, then looked back at the game screen and said casually, "You're out! Want to play a game together? It's Alien 2, it's not released yet."
Jiang You didn't speak, his pupils slowly and lifelessly staring at him.
It's the same again, as if nothing happened. Right now, she has no emotional fluctuations, she just wants to eat, but how can she get food?
She sat down next to Theodore, and the aloofness that surrounded him vanished as if an invisible barrier had been erected. He raised an eyebrow and asked in surprise, "Oh, you want to play with me?"
He jumped the little character he was controlling into the trap, and the words "Game over" appeared in bright red on the screen. He quit the game: "What do you want to play?"
He stretched out his long arm to the side, revealing a game controller in his hand, and handed it to her.
What game? I think she's played this kind of game before, but with whom...?
Hunger caused his memory to regress, and Jiang You reacted a beat slow, saying, "Twin Shadow Wonderland."
"This one," Theodore said with some disdain. He didn't want to play this, but he didn't say anything as he looked around. "Okay then."
The game started, and because Jiang You was already bad at the game, his reaction time was even slower now, so the game was restarted every few minutes.
