He was stripped of his original clothes, dressed in revealing and thin gauze, forcibly given a muscle relaxant, and locked in a room filled with cheap cosmetics and a certain sweet and fishy smell.
He struggled and cursed in terror, but all he received in return was whipping and even more humiliating treatment.
"Once you're in that erotic cave, don't even think about leaving unscathed! Your friend sold you for a good price, saying you have a unique flavor and are especially good at pleasing men."
"From now on, you'll be called Xiulang. It suits you perfectly!"
The museum owner pinched his chin and sneered.
Pei Ziqing instantly realized who was behind it, and despair overwhelmed him like a cold tide.
His prized talent also became a tool for attracting customers.
The once dashing young man was reduced to a plaything in the brothel, withering away rapidly in endless humiliation and despair, never to return to his former self.
Xia Momo's fate was equally tragic.
After being knocked unconscious, she was stuffed into a dilapidated horse-drawn cart carrying stones, and the journey was bumpy.
When Xia Momo was awakened by a bucket of icy cold water, all she saw was a gray sky, mountains of black coal, and a group of coal miners dressed in rags, their faces covered in coal dust, their eyes either numb or fierce.
The foreman was a burly, fleshy old woman known as the Black Rakshasa.
"Awake? If you're awake, get to work!"
"From now on, you're one of the people working at this black gold mine! Don't even think about slacking off; if you don't complete your tasks, you won't get any food!"
Black Rakshasa kicked her in the waist with such force that she almost passed out.
Since transmigrating to this day, Xia Momo has never suffered such humiliation!
She struggled to her feet, and looking at the scene that resembled a garbage dump, the pride and resentment of a transmigrated woman destined to be the protagonist burned fiercely within her once more.
"Just you wait, you bunch of ignorant bystanders and cannon fodder! I'll dominate this coal mine one day, and when I get back to Beijing, I'll tear that person involved in my scheme to pieces!!!"
She growled through gritted teeth, her eyes flashing with a mad ambition and rage.
She began to try to win people over and challenge the existing order of the mine by using her limited modern knowledge.
However, she severely underestimated the cruelty of the struggle for survival at the bottom and the complexity of human nature.
Her unrealistic and condescending remarks might fool the scions of wealthy families.
But to the miners who lived with death and hunger every day, it was a huge joke.
The boss she was trying to challenge was a woman who had worked her way up in the mines for over a decade and had truly established herself through her fists and ruthlessness; she was known as the Iron Lady.
The Iron Lady was also strong and robust, with immense strength. She had a hideous scar on her face that ran from her brow bone to the corner of her mouth, and her eyes were as fierce as a wild beast.
Xia Momo's petty actions and inflammatory remarks were nothing more than child's play in the eyes of the Iron Lady.
One day after work, in the cramped and damp miners' shed, the Iron Lady, along with several trusted confidantes, cornered Xia Momo.
"I heard you want to be the head here?"
The Iron Lady's rough voice was filled with undisguised sarcasm. Her large, fan-like hand grabbed Xia Momo's collar and lifted her up like a chick.
"So what if it is? All you do is resort to violence. I have ways to make things easier for everyone and earn more! Following me is the right path!"
"I come from the capital. Only I can lead you away from here!"
Xia Momo's feet left the ground as she stared in terror at the menacing women, still trying to remain calm and attempting to persuade these uncouth people with words.
