“Think it over, why torture yourself?”

Chen Kainan, satisfied after witnessing the girl’s tragic state, immediately went to the next iron cage.

Imprisoned inside was another woman, a woman in her thirties.

She dared not look into Chen Kainan’s eyes.

Instead, she curled up, trembling incessantly.

“Miss Xu, what’s wrong? You seem very scared of me today?”

“I’m not going to eat you, what’s there to be scared of? Dinner time.”

Chen Kainan similarly used the tip of his foot to push a plate of fish and rice slightly into the cage.

The woman inside the cage, kneeling on the ground, desperately reached out for the food and began eating voraciously while crying, “Kainan…I know 1 was wrong…I truly understand my mistake now…I’m willing to be your woman…didn’t you like me? Let me out, 1’11 be with you!”

“You can do whatever you want to me… I… I love you… I swear I only love you.”

Her voice muffled, but her tear-filled eyes were pitifully begging for Chen Kainan’s forgiveness.

“Don’t cry, you won’t look pretty if you cry.”

A gentle smile appeared on Chen Kainan’s lips as he softly spoke, “My dear Miss Xu, you are the first woman I ever fell for, and the only one I’ve ever truly loved. 1 liked your purity, your authenticity, your daydreaming gaze out the classroom window.”

“Oops, my apologies, I’ve gone off-topic.”

“Let’s appreciate together what the other man you chose over me is doing now, shall we?”

The projector screen flickered, displaying a new video.

In it, a handsome couple was trying on wedding dresses in a high-end bridal boutique.

From their conversation, it was clear that this loving couple was about to get married.

“Look, as you can see, the man you firmly chose back then is now trying on wedding dresses with another woman.”

“Their wedding date is set for the 9th of next month, a very auspicious day indeed.”

“Such an enviable life, isn’t it?”

Chen Kainan’s expression showed longing as he continued, “Let me introduce his girlfriend to you.”

“Oh, my apologies, I forgot, you don’t need me to introduce her…”

“This girl, she’s your close friend, right?”

The woman in the cage stared blankly at the screen, her expression mournful, oblivious to the rice ball in her hand that had fallen to the ground.

“Enjoy it slowly, my most beloved woman-”

Chen Kainan moved on to the next iron cage, inside which was a man.

He looked to be in his thirties as well.

This man was his childhood friend, once his closest companion!

After a minor incident offended Chen Kainan, this defiance landed his friend in captivity.

“Buddy, yesterday, 1 visited your house.”

“Your parents are very upset, and so am 1.”

Once again, the screen changed, showing the interior of a luxurious mansion’s living room.

A couple sat on the sofa, weeping, covered in face, as Chen Kainan was tenderly comforting them.

“Kill me… kill me…. let me die by your hand…”

“Chen Kainan, you’re a madman, if you have the guts then kill me… Kill me, damn it!!!!”

The man in the cage roared like a wild beast after seeing his parents on the screen.

“Alt? Kill you? How could I bear to let you die?”

“You’re my best friend. Didn’t you see how earnestly I was consoling your parents?”

“Since your disappearance, they’ve spent a lot of money searching for you everywhere, given up their company, stopped earning money, running to every city every day.”

“Over the years, the old couple has helped more than thirty families find their children.”

“Tragic, isn’t it? Their own child is still missing without a trace.”

“Only 1 feel for them, and only I bring them a glimmer of hope in life from time to time, encouraging them to live bravely and strive. Buddy, for a lifetime, I’ve been the savior of your family!”

“Your parents already treat me as their son.”

“Our parents haven’t given up on finding you, how can you give up, how can you just abandon your precious life?”

Chen Kainan prepared a bowl of greens and rice for him, kicked it forward, and said, “Brother, their fate and ours are tied together. If you die, then our parents…might as well not continue living either.”

“Promise me, even if just for our parents, you must live well, alright!”

Hearing Chen Kainan’s words, the man in the cage went from extremely agitated to progressively calm, and then his eyes became lifeless.

Instinctively, he grabbed the greens and rice, devouring it greedily while continuously pleading, “Brother Nan, please, don’t hurt my parents… please… I’ll obey…”

“I’ll behave well…eat well… and live well…”

Time slowly slipped away.

Chen Kainan was like an actor on stage, ceaselessly performing unfathomable acts for Lin Mo.

And Lin Mo gradually learned the identity of everyone involved.

Enemy, family, childhood friend, first love, rival

In the basement,

It turned out to be full of people familiar to Chen Kainan!

He had imprisoned all those who had wronged him, without hitting or scolding them, taking care of them every day with good food and drink, sharing with them his life, sharing everything about them..
