Zhang Ke narrowed his eyes, revealing a dangerous light. Jiang Lian was stunned by his slap, and five palm prints appeared on half of her face.
He grabbed her hair with one hand and forced her to look at him. Jiang Lian stared at him with unconvinced eyes.
"You'd better behave yourself and don't play any tricks on me. I've seen many people like you. They were all reluctant at the beginning. What's the point of being so noble? With your character, your family must have been extremely disappointed in you. Don't even think about them coming to rescue you. This place is thousands of kilometers away from the city. But don't worry, people like you will be received by rich people in the future. If you are lucky, I can even book a private room for you!" Zhang Ke's every word was designed to break down her psychological defenses.
Speaking of her family, Jiang Lian felt extremely regretful. Why didn't she listen to them and chose to go her own way, leading to this situation today?
"Even if I die, I won't let you off easy!"
"You want to die? Do you have the confidence to do that? Why are you being so stubborn?" Zhang Ke was too lazy to pay attention to her childish remarks.
The man with the crew cut was outside and saw Zhang Ke attacking Jiang Lian, so he walked in to remind him.
"Don't hurt him, it will affect the valuation!"
"Heh~ If this woman is not disciplined, she will be lawless. Don't worry! I'm still waiting for her to be sold at a good price!"
Zhang Ke was talking proudly, but Jiang Lian bit his hand. It hurt so much that Zhang Ke subconsciously slapped her again.
"***, you really want to die, don't you?"
There was a tooth mark on Zhang Ke's hand, and blood was already oozing out. This made the man angry, and he was about to hit him again.
Fortunately, the man with the crew cut stopped him and did not let him continue. If he had injured the man, it would have affected the price.
Jiang Lian's mouth was bleeding from the slap he gave her. Zhang Ke and the man with the crew cut went out. She curled up helplessly in the corner, hugging her legs and crying.
Nothing on the table was moved.
As night fell, Zhang Ke began to get anxious. Why hadn't the people over there come over yet? He was doing business here and couldn't afford to waste time.
"Really? You're taking so long. When are you going to come?"
"Don't worry, it's already ten o'clock at the latest. What are you afraid of? Nothing will happen!" said the man with a crew cut confidently.
But Zhang Ke always felt a little uneasy. If this person didn't come, he would always feel uneasy. Only after getting the money, he felt relieved.
Speaking of money, he hadn't asked for Jiang Lian's passbook password yet, so he went to Jiang Lian's room again.
"Tell me, what's the passbook password?"
"I won't tell you. You won't get a penny!" Jiang Lian squatted in the corner stubbornly and would never tell him the password of the passbook.
"If you cooperate with me, I might even be able to say a few good words for you, so that you can suffer less!"
Seeing that she refused to speak, Zhang Ke could only threaten her.
"Hmph, dream on!" Jiang Lian's face was swollen and red, but her eyes were full of dissatisfaction.
Zhang Ke saw that intimidation didn't work, so he softened his tone and tried to coax her.
He walked up to Jiang Lian and tried to lift her chin with his hand, but Jiang Lian dodged:
"Get away! Don't touch me!"
Zhang Ke was not angry and continued to coax her:
"Be good and tell me the password. You won't be able to spend it when the time comes, so why not give it to me?"
I have never seen such a shameless person. It turns out that the ordinary man that my second sister-in-law often talks about is just like him, ordinary and confident.
How come I didn't realize it before? I was really blind.
"You are not worthy, get out!"
"Jiang Lian, don't refuse a toast and then drink the wine for punishment!" Zhang Ke had limited patience and didn't want to waste any more time talking to her.
"What can you do to me? If you have the guts, just beat me to death! Don't you still expect me to sell it for a high price?
Come on, beat me to death, do you think I am afraid of you? Anyway, I am stuck here, I am not afraid of anything!"
She has fallen to this point because of her own fault and cannot blame anyone else.
I will repay my parents’ kindness in my next life!
Jiang Lian stood up and rushed towards the wall. Seeing this, Zhang Ke grabbed her arm tightly.
Nothing can go wrong, otherwise all my efforts for so long will be in vain.
"Let me go, let me die!" Jiang Lian struggled hard. Zhang Ke was afraid that she would be alarmed, so he pinched her neck and restrained her on the bed. He found a piece of cloth to stuff her mouth, and then asked the man with a crew cut to bring a rope and tie her up.
"Since you don't want to live a good life, then just do this!" Zhang Ke originally had some sympathy for women and didn't plan to tie her up, but since she was making such a fuss, don't blame him for being ruthless.
At nine o'clock in the evening, the train arrived at the station. Jiang Cong and others finally got off the train. Without delaying for a moment, they began to inquire about the guesthouses near the train station.
Jiang Lian was a pretty girl, and most people who had seen her would have had some impression of her. Zhang Ke also wore a pair of glasses, and this kind of dandy look should have left a deep impression on people.
I asked several guest houses, but the owners all said they had no impression of it, so I had to keep looking.
The guesthouse Zhang Ke found was in a remote location and was hard to spot. In addition, there were too many private guesthouses near the train station to count, so trying to find out any information there was like looking for a needle in a haystack.
Around ten o'clock, a black car stopped in the alley of the guesthouse. A man with a crew cut walked out of the guesthouse and whispered something to a woman who was heavily made up and wearing sunglasses.
The woman, accompanied by two burly men, followed the man with a crew cut to the third floor of the guesthouse.
The lady boss at the front desk noticed this, and after they went upstairs, she sent her eldest son out.
The man with a crew cut brought the woman to Jiang Lian's room. Zhang Ke was waiting inside, and Jiang Lian was tied up.
When the person came, the woman exuded a pungent smell of perfume. She was about thirty years old and was dressed in a sexy and seductive manner.
She took off her sunglasses and looked at Jiang Lian lying on the bed.
"You have a good body proportion. You're still a whore, right?" the woman looked at Zhang Ke.
Zhang Ke immediately put on a flattering smile in front of his sponsor:
"Don't worry, Sister Rong! This girl is 100% pure, you can check it out!"
The woman called Sister Rong should be the prostitute from the brothel. She twisted her waist and walked to Jiang Lian and took the cloth out of her mouth.
"Go away, don't touch me!" Jiang Lian glared at her, but was unable to struggle away.
"Well, the tone is not bad. If you train her well, she will be a good seedling. Men like this type!"
The more arrogant Jiang Lian became, the more Sister Rong liked to provoke her with words. Seeing her painful and frightened expression, she felt very comfortable.
