I just used the insect poison, and the excruciating pain was like thousands of ants crawling all over my body, biting every part of me.

The last time she went back, she curled up on the ground, the cold sweat on her forehead soaking her hair. She thought that since there was no antidote, she would have to endure the pain for a few days.

The pain made her clench her fists, but she could feel the dried blood on her middle finger. For some unknown reason, she slowly moved her middle finger to her lips.

The black-clad man's fingertips lingered repeatedly on Ren Baozhi's face, his eyes fixed on the blood on her lips: "You know, your blood is very sweet."

Ren Baozhi frowned and did not dare to act rashly at this time.

There are so many mysteries surrounding the Man in Black: her identity, her motives, and her attitude towards herself.

Chaotic, complicated, and unpredictable.

The man in black's sweet voice lingered in Ren Baozhi's ears: "You hate me."

"Why?" she said to herself, "I'm your savior, aren't I?"

Her throat was burning with pain, and even the simplest act of swallowing was unbearable for Ren Baozhi.

But she still said in a hoarse voice: "Disgusting."

The man in black laughed happily when he heard this.

Although Ren Baozhi felt unwell, she still focused her mind and secretly felt the fingertips sliding across her cheek. They were smooth, delicate, and cold, not like the fingers of someone who had practiced martial arts for many years.

The half of the black-clad man's face that was exposed had fair skin and no signs of being exposed to the wind or sun.

She is a collection of contradictions; her behavior is inconsistent with her manners, and her abilities are also inconsistent with her appearance.

Suddenly, everything went dark before her eyes, and the man in black covered her eyes with his hands to stop her from exploring.

Ren Baozhi asked her confused question: "You won't kill me?"

I witnessed her murder and took her medicine. Shouldn't she kill me to silence me?

Why is it like this now?

She totally couldn't understand why the man in black did this.

Feeling Ren Baozhi's eyelashes trembling in her palm, the man in black seemed to enjoy the sight of her prey struggling. She said slowly, "Of course not. I'm here to save you."

The man in black loosened his hand that was covering her eyes. Her nails were quite long, and they scratched her face painfully. "There's no such thing as a free lunch. Now, it's time for me to ask for your reward."

The words slid across Ren Baozhi's throat, waiting for the next words from the man in black.

But the man in black did not say what reward she wanted. His eyes were fixed on Ren Baozhi's cracked lips. More blood oozed from her lips because she had just spoken.

The insect began to get restless, and she slowly lowered her head, the distance between her and Ren Baozhi getting closer and closer.

His vision was dark, but his other senses were heightened.

She heard the man in black take off his mask, his warm breath hitting her face, getting closer and closer.

This aggressive action made Ren Baozhi feel instinctively offended. She hated close physical contact with strangers. When the black-clad man's lips were about to touch her, she turned her head away with all her strength.

The man in black still had his hands covering her eyes.

She wanted to take the hands off her eyes, but the man in black was tightening his grip on her hands.

The man in black smiled bewitchingly: "Don't you like it?"

She asked casually, without waiting for Ren Baozhi's answer.

Afterwards, Ren Baozhi's eyes were covered with a black cloth, which was wrapped around the back of her head and tied into a knot - it was the mask of the man in black.

Nausea.

The feeling of being stared at made Ren Baozhi feel extremely nauseous.

This situation of being controlled and unable to struggle also made Ren Baozhi feel extremely disgusted.

The man in black noticed Ren Baozhi's mood, and the sweetness in his voice faded a little: "Aren't you afraid?"

Ren Baozhi said: "I just feel sick."

"why?"

"Ah."

The man in black's voice turned cold: "Tell me why?"

"This feeling of being manipulated at will, with no respect at all, like a plaything for others' amusement, makes me sick." Humiliation surged in Ren Baozhi's chest. She finally had the courage to express her true feelings, but her throat was even hoarseer. "You helped me, and you're right to ask for compensation. I just don't understand why you have to use such a humiliating method to ask for your so-called reward!"

As she spoke, tears flowed uncontrollably again. Ren Baozhi was breathing heavily. She knew she needed to calm down and put her life first, but she was too confused today.

She couldn't figure it out, she really couldn't figure it out.

She knew that the system was right and that the most important thing for her was not the damn mission but to ensure her own survival, but at the same time she desperately wanted to express her true self.

She was wrong.

She always cares about others and ignores her own emotions, but she doesn't want to do that anymore.

What the man in black had just done undoubtedly added fuel to the fire of her already on the verge of collapse.

Then, her emotions completely got out of control and turned into a raging flame, burning her eyes red and her tears soaking the black cloth.

Finally, she could no longer control herself and curled up her body, sobbing uncontrollably.

It was as if I wanted to vent through tears all the grievances, pressure, and fatigue I had experienced since writing this book.

It's also like saying goodbye to myself over the past few months.

The man in black looked at Ren Baozhi silently without saying a word.

The snow gradually subsided and the crying became quieter.

The moment her tears stopped, she finally felt as if a heavy burden had been lifted from her entire being. She had never felt so relaxed as she did at that moment.

Isn't she working so hard on the mission just to save her life?

If you lose your life, or if life is so tiring and boring, then what is the point of working so hard to complete those tasks?

She is just an ordinary person. She only hopes to help women in need as much as she can, provided that she has the ability.

Instead of burning yourself in a sacrificial way.

After Ren Baozhi calmed down completely, she began to regret her impulsive behavior.

Her life was still in the hands of the man in black, and she had just said those "righteous" words to her, and after that she curled up on his legs and cried loudly.

The past cannot be retrieved, the more you retrieve it, the more shameful it becomes.

She wanted to reach out and take off the "eye mask" on her face to see the expression of the man in black, only to find that her hand was still firmly held in the palm of the man in black.
