Chapter 678 Not Suitable

Chapter 678 Not Suitable　　Ruan Meilin was currently in a pathetic state. She was in an ice cellar with the temperature so low that she felt like her bones had frozen by now. She hadn't slept a wink since last night. 

At first, she was tied to a pillar and the people who brought her here used the cruel water torture on her. Coldwater dripped on her scalp, face, and forehead slowly. As history had proven, this method evoked fear within the subject along with mental deterioration. For someone like Ruan Meilin whose brain wasn't very good, to begin with, this torture made her fearful to the extreme.

She screamed and yelled but no one listened to her at all. And none of them even stopped her from screaming as if they weren't afraid that someone would hear her voice and come for help. But then again, Anna or her team really had no such fear. They were in the basement of the building and it was soundproof. 

And even if someone did hear Ruan Meilin's plea for help, who would dare to help? 

All of them actually quite patient people being ex-mercenaries. They weren't like assassins who were impatient to swiftly kill their target and get done with it. These mercenaries knew the joy that came with slow torture.

Although it seemed like they weren't doing much to Ruan Meilin, they were actually slowly breaking her apart, mentally. She had lost her voice from screaming and lost her energy to move and struggle at some point as well. Till the dawn broke out, they had used their patience to break every single wall she had in her mind with their water torture.

After that, they threw her inside the ice cellar. Oh, it wasn't because they got tired. It was because all of them were discussing what method to go for next. The discussion was heated because all of them had their own ideas. 

It was during this time that Hyson had contacted Anna. Seeing his message, Anna raised her brow and shook her head. This little prince of the family was really like a prince. He even had the cruelty of one. 

"We're going for the shock therapy," announced Anna to everyone.

"What's the fun in that? I still think flaying is better!" Hailey voiced out.

"That's an order from above," answered Anna. "Since our criminal is mentally ill, we should be considerate of her health. What if she used that as an excuse to get out of jail time? So, we should do society a favor and help her fix her brain."

Hailey clicked her fingers and nodded, "Agreed! Get everything ready!"

As they tied her to the chair, Ruan Meilin was horrified. She had already lost half her life since the last night, she didn't want to go through this as well. She could only curse her impulsive nature. Why did she have to throw that pot?

But she knew why she did it. It was because she saw Tang Hebe with Raelle. And she was certain that Tang Hebe told Raelle about the incident that happened with Amiah. She was scared. She didn't want that news to reach Shui Xian. So, in her impulse, she decided to attack. She thought she'll be shooting two birds with one stone. 

One, if something happened to Raelle, she'd be able to get rid of this woman who insulted her. And once Tang Hebe saw what happened to Raelle, she'd be too scared to move against Ruan Meilin. She had never liked Tang Hebe but the way Tang Hebe threatened her made Ruan Meilin's hatred grow.

She couldn't form a single sentence out of her mouth, so she kept mumbling, "No." while shaking her head. However, no one paid attention to her.

"The moment you decided to hurt our Missy, you had already asked for your death," said Hailey as she tied her hands to the chair with leather straps. With an evil smile on her face, she added, "You shouldn't have offended her."

"Hailey, stop wasting your breath," said Anna. "Start the machine. Our guest here needs proper entertaining."

All of this was seen by Hyson who was still calmly looking at his phone screen. He was actually quite disappointed when he noticed Ruan Meilin's condition. Was she even worthy of being Raelle's opponent? She broke down so easily? It didn't even take 12 hours and she was already at her limits. What a pathetic case!

But it was understandable. This woman was never smart, to begin with. Her brain was already not working. She only knew how to bully the weak with her manipulative personality. But against real torturers like Anna, she was worse than a rat!

With a bang, the door of the room was pushed open and Mu Chenyan walked in. 

Every single person in the room froze as they stared at the woman who stood at the door. Her hair was tied up in a tight bun and she wore a casual pair of pants and a shirt. 

Anna's breath stagnated once she looked at Mu Chenyan. She knew she was in trouble but she couldn't do anything about that either. "Mistress!" 

The voices echoed inside the room one by one as Mu Chenyan stepped inside lazily. Her eyes were fixed on the woman who was tied to that chair and was receiving shock therapy. She looked in pain and misery but did it matter to Mu Chenyan? No! She was never a kind-hearted soul.

Looking toward the security cameras in the room, Mu Chenyan spoke up, "My dear Fai, how about you cut off the connection now?"

Hyson wasn't even surprised that she knew he was watching it all. He wanted to protest that he didn't want to cut off the connection but Mu Chenyan left him no room for discussion.

"Who said I was asking for your opinion?" Mu Chenyan's voice sounded like she was just casually chatting with her lovely godson. But Hyson knew better. "Be a good boy! The next scene isn't suitable for you."
