"The conditions here are limited, and there is a lack of water. If you want to take a bath, you can only go to the bathhouse. Get ready, and I'll take you there!"

Zhang Ke smiled and spoke to her gently, but what he was actually thinking was, you have to wash yourself clean before coming to see someone.

Jiang Lian didn't know yet that this was a huge conspiracy and she was about to fall into a desperate situation.

Zhang Ke took her to the bathhouse to take a bath, and after coming back they went back to their rooms to sleep.

Jiang Lian was so hungry that she didn't eat properly in the car, and she didn't eat after getting off the car. She woke up because of hunger after falling asleep.

It was not known what time it was in the middle of the night. Jiang Lian opened the door and wanted to go next door to find Zhang Ke and ask him to get some food for her as she was extremely hungry.

The corridor outside was quiet, with a light bulb hanging above it and spider webs. The light was dim and the long corridor was a bit creepy.

She suddenly felt a little scared and came to Zhang Ke's door, ready to knock.

As soon as I raised my hand, I heard voices coming from inside. One was Zhang Ke's own voice, and the other was a male voice.

This door is not soundproof, and you can easily hear the conversation inside.

Jiang Lian almost fainted from fright after hearing Zhang Ke say just one sentence.

"Have you contacted the buyer? This time I brought a real southern chick, with soft skin and tender flesh, pure and pretty, and she has never lost her virginity. She must be sold for a high price!"

"I've found one for you, but I can only give you an estimate after I verify your identity!" the strange man replied.

"I spent some time to trick this guy. He's a good piece of stuff, much prettier than the ones I brought here before. I won't sell him at a lower price!"

Zhang Ke talked about it as if he was talking about an object, without any emotion at all.

Jiang Lian's face turned pale, and she began to tremble, biting her lower lip tightly.

Unexpectedly, I was really cheated. This Zhang Ke turned out to be a trafficker of women.

She knew that she couldn't make a move at this moment and had to find a chance to run away. Her legs were a little weak and she held onto the wall as she prepared to go back to the house. Just as she stood at the door and pushed it open, the door next to her opened.

Zhang Ke walked out and just happened to see Jiang Lian.

"Xiao Lian, why haven't you slept yet?" He looked at her standing at the door in confusion.

Jiang Lian was startled by him and almost fainted at that moment, but she could only stay calm and try her best to pretend that she knew nothing.

She didn't even dare to look at him directly.

"I was halfway through sleeping and was really...hungry. I was so hungry that I wanted to come to you and ask you to take me out to eat something!"

Jiang Lian was trembling as she spoke. She was so frightened that her face turned pale.

Zhang Ke noticed something was wrong, so he walked up to her, lifted her chin with his hand, and made her look at him.

Her little face was pale and her forehead was covered with sweat.

"Why are you shaking like this? Why are you so pale?"

Jiang Lian forced a smile with great difficulty to keep herself awake.

She knew that she was in an unfamiliar place and could not show any abnormality, otherwise she would not even have the chance to escape.

Looking at the gentle smiling face in front of her, she could only feel that there was endless viciousness beneath the surface. It was too late to regret now. She could only blame herself for not listening to her family and insisting on having her own way, which led to this situation.

"I'm so hungry. This is what happens when I'm hungry. My whole body trembles and my face turns pale!"

"Then let's go quickly. I'll take you to eat something!" Zhang Ke stretched out his hand to her.

Jiang Lian hesitated for a moment, but finally handed him the handbag and let him lead her out, where they found a place to sit down and eat.

She had been thinking of a countermeasure in her mind, and she must find an opportunity to escape, because she had no idea where she would be sold to. Anyway, it would not end well.

"What are you thinking about? Aren't you hungry? Why don't you eat?" Zhang Ke was a little confused when he saw her sitting there with a worried look on her face.

"Uh... I'm thinking about my family. I'm so far away from home, I miss them a little bit!"

As Jiang Lian spoke, her tone was filled with tears and her tears flowed unconsciously.

She hated herself for not listening to the advice of her brother and sister-in-law, and for insisting on her own way, thinking that she had really found love.

I should have thought of this earlier. How could running to such a far place lead to such a good ending?

"Don't think about it, just eat!" Zhang Ke was too lazy to comfort her.

Anyway, she will never see her family again.

Jiang Lian picked up the chopsticks and started eating noodles, shoveling them vigorously. She knew that if she didn't eat enough, she wouldn't have the strength to run. In this situation, she must not let anything happen to her. Once her body collapsed, everything would be over!

After returning to the hotel, I don’t know if Zhang Ke noticed something, but he stayed in her room and didn’t leave. He just sat beside her bed and looked at her.

"Why don't you go back to bed?"

Jiang Lian asked cautiously, because if he didn't leave, she would have no chance to escape.
