Reborn group favorite: The prince and I are enemies

"Jiu Wan, does it hurt?"

Jiuwan lay on the bed, his teeth clenched tightly, and cold sweat streamed down his forehead.

Hong Jiang sat beside the bed, applying medicine to her and asking softly.

However, Jiuwan did not answer, but just bit the corner of the quilt tightly.

Her sweat and tears dripped onto the bed, soaking the light-colored sheets.

Finally, she couldn't hold back her tears and cried, "Master, why didn't you save me? I watched helplessly as they took me to that hellish place every time."

Hong Jiang sighed: "I'm sorry, it's my fault that I'm incompetent. I can't save you."

Jiu Wan burst into tears and asked repeatedly: "Can't save her? You are so powerful, as long as you take action, how can you not save her?!"

"Do you know how much pain I felt? They threw me into a pit filled with centipedes, scorpions, poisonous snakes, and spiders! There were also giant toads covered in pus-filled skin!"

"The centipede bit me, the scorpion stung me, the venomous snake crawled on my neck, the spider tried to get into my mouth, nose and ears, and the big toad kept jumping on the ground."

"I wanted to run away, but as soon as I moved, centipedes swarmed over me, scorpions stung me non-stop, and poisonous snakes spat at me non-stop."

"I am in so much pain and so scared, but I have to go through this every seven days. You are my master, and I regard you as my mother. Why can you watch me suffer?"

Red Ginger lowered her eyelashes to hide the tears in her eyes.

She sniffed and said hoarsely, "Because only if you master the technique can you survive, understand?"

Jiu Wan burst into tears: "Alive? Why do I have to live? I can't survive a day like this, why don't you just let me die?!"

Hong Jiang took a deep breath, picked up the medicine on the stool beside the bed, and prepared to leave.

Before leaving, she told Jiuwan: "We live so that we can one day defeat suffering, become the master of ourselves, and the master of our own destiny."

"Death, what a simple word, just a wipe on the neck and it's over. But living is the hardest. Precisely because it's hard, we have to live well."

After saying that, Hong Jiang took the medicine and left the house.

Jiuwan looked at her back, not sure if it was because of the light leaking in from the suddenly opened door that dazzled his eyes, or if it was because she was really in pain and sad.

Her eyes were filled with tears.

She looked at the empty door and couldn't understand what her master meant.

But the horrible scars all over the body and the pain as if thousands of ants were gnawing at his heart were so real and so terrifying.

She gritted her teeth and said, "I just want you to save me. It doesn't matter even if you can't. But every time you watched me being taken away, you never protected me once. Is it difficult for you to say a word? Is it difficult... Master..."

The tears that were about to fall did not fall, but were slowly forced back by her.

She bit her lip until it bled.

But she was completely unaware, and just kept muttering like a madman: "To live is to be the master of one's own destiny."

"No, I don't want to be the master of my own destiny." As Jiu Wan spoke, her expression changed from fearful and pitiful to ferocious, "I want to be your master, I want to trample you under my feet!"

"Step on me!" Jiuwan woke up with a roar. She couldn't tell the difference between the dream and reality and thought Lu Mingyu was Hong Jiang.

She suddenly stood up, her eyes bloodshot, and slapped Lu Mingyu: "Go to hell!"
