Just as he was in a daze, Harry suddenly turned around to look at him. Seeing that he was also staring at Xia Zhi's back, he couldn't help but get angry from embarrassment, and pushed him away, scolding loudly: "What are you looking at? "Hurry up and leave!"
Caught off guard, Pei Yaochen was pushed forward until he staggered and almost fell. He was depressed and angry inside, but he did not vent it out.
He told the truth, but what he got instead was a beatings.
He had lived in seclusion for many years, and in this period of time, he had long since been eliminated. Even if he did remember, he was regarded as a useless person who had been eliminated.
What quality did he have that was worthy of her attention?
Appearance?
It seemed that Lucian was no worse than he was.
And Lucian was young, and he was about the same age as Lucian, but his heart was rotten, and every day he smelled the cold musty smell of his own body, and he hated himself, so how could he have the courage to think that she saw him in her eyes?
It seemed a little too idealistic to expect her to be the mastermind.
Just as he was thinking in a daze, a fist came whistling over. This time, it did not land on his chest, but on his face.
He could feel a stream of heat flowing out from his nose. A thick liquid was seeping into his mouth, instantly filling it with blood.
His ears buzzed and he heard someone say, "Why did you slap his face? Didn't I tell you not to let anyone see through it? "
"I'm sorry. I couldn't help it. His face looked like it deserved a beating! And after so long, he actually didn't give us any useful answers. This is too untactful! " Harry scoffed.
"Alright, alright. If not today, then tomorrow would be fine. We have countless tomorrows, so let's not rush. Furthermore, there is no one urging us, so why are you in such a hurry? Don't think that you can beat him up as soon as possible and find an excuse to find that Miss Tian, right? Let me tell you, don't think about that beautiful thing anymore. Everyone knows that the Miss Tian has very high standards, only people like Lucien can enter her eyes. It's better not to think of an ordinary person like me and you. "
"There are always exceptions. I don't believe in evil! " Harry mumbled in embarrassment.
"Enough. If you don't believe me, then don't believe me. But now it's over. " The man stood up, walked to Pei Yaochen and patted his face, and asked: "Can you still walk?"
Pei Yaochen nodded, "Yes!"
"You are very hard!" The person smiled and unshackled him.
Pei Yaochen slowly straightened his back, standing up and coldly looked at Harry.
Just as he was about to wave his fist forward, the person stopped him and warned him unhappily, "Harry, if you continue to do this, don't blame me for not being your partner!"
After Harry heard this, he unhappily retracted his fist.
The man said, "You're too emotional. Why don't you go have a cup of coffee and have a rest? I'll take care of him. "
Harry nodded, "Alright. Save me the urge to beat him up the moment I see him! "
With that, he turned around and left with large strides.
Pei Yaochen was thrown into a narrow and small isolated cell by the police.
As he was closing the door, the man suddenly went up to him and asked in a low voice, "Do you have anyone you want me to call for you? "Like a lawyer or someone close to you?"
"Yes." However, it was not them, but the Miss Tian. "Help me call her over, I have something to say to her." Pei Yaochen said while gasping for air.
The man started, then laughed, laughing as if he had heard the most ridiculous joke in the world.
Pei Yaochen looked at him coldly, not saying a word.
After a long while, the person stopped laughing, and spoke into his ear word by word, "Do you know what you look like? Like a toad! A toad that wants to eat swan meat! "
"Whether I'm a toad or not, I have to ask Miss Tian first." Pei Yaochen said calmly.
The person chuckled, "Alright." I'll ask for you. But whether she can see you or not is your business. "
"The price." Pei Yaochen said simply.
"Price?" Uh. I have to think about it. I can see that you're still rich, even though you've been gone for years. I have to think of a price that matches your identity. "
Pei Yaochen nodded, retreated a few steps and leaned against the wall, slowly sitting on the ice-cold ground.
The man frowned and asked, "Is that really the only request you have? Actually, with your status, I really don't mind helping you out with other things. "
"No need. This is the only thing that you can help me achieve my wish for. " Pei Yaochen whispered.
That person looked at him for a long time. Finally, he lightly smiled, turned around and left without saying anything else.
Pei Yaochen panted a few times and then turned to look at the dark and damp prison cell.
This was a cell less than six square meters with no toilet and no bed. They must have purposely kept him isolated in this place.
Lucien was obviously trying to make things difficult for him.
However, he did not care. What he cared about was whether that woman would accept his invitation.
Wasn't he risking his life to come here so that he could see her again in broad daylight?
In the next few days, Pei Yaochen was dragged out and interrogated once a day. He practically memorized every single question he asked, and of course, the answer he gave never changed.
In the blink of an eye, a week had passed. He was tortured to the point where he was in a miserable state. He had lost more than ten pounds and his body was not able to withstand the pain.
That day, he dragged his bruised body back to his cell and sat on the cold floor. He raised his head to look at the window that was so small that even his head couldn't get out.
If Lucian was the one who was going to torture him, if she didn't take him seriously at all, then what was the point of it?
Besides, if he wanted to see her, why did he have to do it in such a disgraceful manner?
Could he use the resources that he had not used for a long time to understand everything about her, and then try to get close to her and understand how she seduced him?
That's a lot more likely to win, isn't it?
Or had he accumulated his pain for too long and needed this special method to torture himself?
For a moment, he was unable to see himself clearly, but instead, sank into a deep confusion.
Dong dong dong
The door was knocked, but he was too tired to pay any attention. All he wanted to do was try to clear his mind of all the messy thoughts.
Xia Zhi was not anxious, and only observed him quietly.
He was very bad.
His hair was long and unkempt, like a clump of weeds.
His face was also pale to the point of turning green, his eyes sunken in, his beard full of his chin, and his originally luxurious clothes were wrinkled and dirty, as if he was found from a dustbin. He seemed to be unspeakably dispirited.
He was in such a sorry state that she wanted him to be.
Xia Zhi had to admit that at this moment, her heart was extremely satisfied. She only felt as if a cool breeze had blown into her heart, carrying away a large amount of the dirty air that had accumulated in her heart.
She raised her eyebrows and took out a handkerchief that had been soaked in a bottle of Chanel perfume. She waved it in the direction of the handkerchief.
The fragrance was like a flower blooming, a fresh and fragrant smell instantly filled the entire small prison. Not only did it drive away a lot of the gloomy and musty air, it also caused Pei Yaochen to instantly raise his head.
When he saw her, he immediately got up, but too quickly. A wave of pain came from his chest, causing his face to turn even paler, and the stench of blood rushed to his throat.
But he only frowned slightly, he did not bend down to rest his hand on his chest, nor did he walk towards Xia Zhi in time.
He tried his best to adjust his own Qi. When he felt that he was well, he slowly walked towards Xia Zhi.
Xia Zhi did not rush him. She only looked at him while smiling, her eyes were like a pool of spring water, full of emotions and gentleness, as if he was the lover of her dreams.
Pei Yaochen finally came to a stop in front of her, and said hoarsely: "You're finally here."
"Yes." Here it comes. I heard that you've been begging to see me these past few days, so I came to see why you're so stubborn. Now look at me and tell me we know each other. Why did you lose control so quickly when you first saw me, fighting like a jealous man? " Xia Zhi asked indifferently.
However, Pei Yaochen didn't say anything, he only stared at her in silence and greed. He only felt that just quietly watching her speak was the most beautiful pleasure in the world.
She was so beautiful, so warm and heartbreaking, like a rose with thorns. Even though she knew that she could be stabbed if she wasn't careful, she still couldn't help but want to get close and have it.
Seeing that he did not say anything, Xia Zhi caressed his hair and smiled seductively, "Am I beautiful?"
He nodded vigorously and vaguely, like a little boy who had been tempted for the first time.
"Hur hur. I always like to be admired. " Xia Zhi reached out her hand and hooked her little finger, "Come a little closer."
He didn't understand why she said that, but he obediently put his face to the window.
"Close your eyes. I want to give you a kiss about how much you like me. " Xia Zhi said again.
As if puzzled, he closed his eyes obediently.
Snap
A resounding slap sounded out, and a burning pain spread across his left cheek.
