"No, I don't want to study. I want to go home. You promised to take me home."
An An looked at Sister Hong with pleading eyes. She originally thought that Sister Hong would come to comfort her, but unexpectedly, Sister Hong's face, which was originally smiling at her, suddenly became distorted.
She curled her lips and snorted in disdain.
"Send you home? This is your home, which other home do you want to go back to?"
Hearing this, An An looked at Sister Hong in horror and screamed loudly.
"No, this is not my home. Please take me home. Please."
Sister Hong swung her sleeves mercilessly, and said in a serious voice:
"Tie her up and gag her. Don't let her scream."
Hearing this, An An knew that she was in danger again, and if she didn't run, she would be in danger.
So, she glanced at Sister Hong, gritted her teeth, turned around and tried to run, but was stopped by two men. She looked up at the two men who were as strong as a solid wall, but was suddenly shocked to find that those two men were the two who had blackmailed her during the day.
She suddenly had a bad feeling. She knew she had been deceived by this woman and they were in cahoots. She shrank back and screamed in fear.
"Let me go. I want to leave here. You forcibly brought me here and violated the laws of Daning State. You will go to jail."
"Hahaha……"
Sister Hong waved her hand, and the two women stepped forward, each grabbing her shoulders, making her unable to move. Sister Hong then slowly walked up to her, grabbed her hair with one hand, and pulled it roughly, saying hatefully:
"You little bitch, how dare you threaten your aunt like that? In Yancheng, no one has ever dared to speak to me like that. Honestly, once you enter this door, you can't get out again. Unless you obey me, I will make you live a life worse than death."
"Let me go, let me go."
An An felt a sharp pain in her scalp as she was pulled. She wanted to break free, but her hands were held tightly by the woman behind her.
She stared with wide eyes in horror at the women in front of her who were grinning at her. Suddenly, she felt dizzy and lost consciousness in an instant without any preparation. When she woke up again, she found herself in this strange house.
When she just woke up, she tried to escape from here, but found that the windows here were closed and the door was locked from the outside. She didn't know why these people brought her back. She guessed in her heart that perhaps these people were the unscrupulous businessmen who picked up corpses everywhere and made human meat buns that night.
Thinking of this, she started crying. She was afraid that she would be chopped into minced meat and turned into those delicious-looking buns. Then, she would have no chance to see her father and mother.
"Mmmmm... Mom, I miss you. Where are you?"
"Mom, they want to kill me. If you can't find me... you must... you must not cry. In the next life, An An will still be your daughter. In the next life... An An will come to honor you again..."
"Huaiyu, Lele, are you all home safely? An'an misses you. You must take good care of mom for me..."
An An's sad sobs echoed throughout the room until the sound of a door being unlocked was heard. An An wiped the tears from her face and looked towards the door in horror.
Through the dim light outside, she saw Sister Hong and two women walking towards her with their beautiful figures.
She hugged her legs tightly with her hands, shrank her body, and looked intently at Sister Hong and the other two.
Sister Hong came to her side and raised her eyebrows proudly.
"An An, you're offered food but you won't eat it, and you're offered drink but you won't drink it. What's the point of being so stubborn? Look at these two sisters. They've been coming to Yuhongyuan since they were little. They've learned dancing and literacy here, and have acquired a lot of skills. They earned a hundred taels for their virginity. If you behave well, I promise you'll have delicious food and drinks. It's better than wandering around the streets all day, right?"
An An bit her lips tightly. She didn't know what Sister Hong was talking about, nor did she understand what Sister Hong meant. She stared at her with wide eyes and said in a negotiating tone:
"Sister Hong, if you let me go home, I'll ask my father to give you one thousand taels of silver..."
"fart."
Sister Hong suddenly raised her hand and tapped her forehead, rolling her eyes and cursing angrily:
"Do you think I'm stupid? I'll let you go? Don't dream. You've entered my Yuhongyuan. You can't leave. I'll give you three days to think about it. If you listen to me and do whatever I tell you to do, and promise not to run away again, I'll let you live a good life. Otherwise, don't blame me for being blind."
Leaving these harsh words behind, Sister Hong snorted and stood up, saying to the two women beside her:
"Give her the order to starve her for three days. If she still doesn't behave, after three days, use a whip dipped in cold water and beat her until she submits."
Before leaving, the two women looked back at An An with disdain in their eyes. They seemed to have anticipated that the current An An would be their future selves.
Watching the door being closed again, An An clutched the corner of her clothes tightly with both hands. She suddenly clenched her teeth, clenched her fists, and thought with great hatred about the person who hurt her, Leng Xi.
He saved me, and then he hurt me. Did he save people just to torture me? I've never offended him, and I even call him "Fifth Uncle" when I see him. How could he be so cruel? Why did he do this to her?
"Leng Xi, you are no longer my fifth uncle. You are my enemy. I will definitely seek revenge on you."
Thinking of this, she closed her eyes and secretly swore this poisonous oath in her heart.
It seems that it is almost impossible for her to escape from here on her own. Is she really going to accept her fate?
Of course not, she has to think of a suitable solution.
Thinking of this, she buried her head in her knees again, thinking quietly about something. She thought about what her mother had said to her: You must stay calm when encountering things, and don't be surprised when dealing with things, so that you can accomplish great things in the future.
…
This night was long and difficult. It was not until the early morning sunlight slanted into the house that Luo Lan slowly opened his eyes.
She went to bed very late last night. She had planned to get up early today to look for An An, but before she knew it, she had slept until dawn.
She was a little annoyed and even felt a little guilty. She didn't know if An An had a place to sleep. How could she sleep peacefully in bed?
Thinking of this, she hurriedly shouted outside:
"Acai, Ahong."
The door creaked open, and Ah Cai and Ah Hong ran in quickly.
"What happened to the princess?"
"Princess, are you having a nightmare again?"
Looking at the concerned eyes of the two girls, Luo Lan shook his head.
"No, where's the prince?"
"He left early in the morning, saying he was searching for the second young lady in the city with the local government."
"Why didn't you call me?"
She got down to the ground with a blaming tone, and Ah Hong hurried forward to help her put on her shoes. Ah Cai explained:
"Before the prince left, he specifically told us servants not to wake you up, saying that you should rest well. He would search Yancheng to find the second young lady."
