Ruan Qian'an had a splitting headache and was resting with her eyes closed, but a series of sobbing and whimpering sounds disturbed her greatly.

She easily freed herself from the bag that was wrapped around her body.

Frustrated, he scratched his hair and kicked the source of the sound: "Shut up."

But all I got in return was a rough shout: "Get away! Don't touch him!"

Ruan Qian'an frowned. She had just kicked the cage, which made it wobble. She barely managed to stand up by supporting herself on the table, and just happened to touch the corpse.

The smell of blood, and even the feel of it, made Ruan Qian'an take a deep breath and say, "It's too noisy, shut up."

He paused for a moment and then said, "Otherwise, I'll throw this body into the sea."

"you!"

Xiao Xin frowned and said, "You can't see it, so how do you know it's a corpse...?"

Ruan Qian'an returned to a corner where Xiao Xin was and slammed the cage down hard, saying, "You shut up too."

Ruan Qian'an is extremely agitated right now. She misses Huo Jingmo and wants to get back to his side as soon as possible.

Xiaoyun, who was standing to the side, finally couldn't hold back any longer and said angrily, "You are a selfish and inhuman wretch! You dog bastard."

Ruan Qian'an sat in a corner with her head buried in her knees.

Inhuman?

Ruan Qian'an frowned slightly, her expression a mixture of indifference and sorrow.

Indeed, Ruan Qian'an thought.

Ruan Qian'an's actions caused the room to fall silent for a moment, and the crying also subsided, but the woman was still holding the dead man's hand.

Xiao Xin's expression remained one of shock after being hit; for a moment, she felt that she had given her kindness to the wrong person.

The door creaked open from the outside.

The person who came in saw Ruan Qian'an break free of the bag, cursed under his breath, and then shouted outside, "The person we just picked up has run away."

A commotion erupted as many people rushed over: "Why did they run away? Boss, we need to inspect the goods later!"

The leader waved his hand and said, "Find it for me quickly."

Then he caught something out of the corner of his eye: "Wait! Isn't this right here?!"

He had clearly seen Ruan Qian'an sitting in the corner, and Ruan Qian'an frowned, finding it unusually noisy.

The person who had just entered patted his chest with a sigh of relief and said, "When I saw this net, I thought she had run away, but it turns out she was just hiding."

As he spoke, he walked up to Ruan Qian'an, grabbed her hair, and dragged her outside: "It seems we need to teach those who don't listen a lesson, lest someone cause trouble."

He glared fiercely at the people in the cages, making a move to tear off Ruan Qian'an's clothes.

He muttered under his breath, "How kind of him to put a coat on her."

Then he slapped Ruan Qian'an across the face and said fiercely to him, "Who untied the net for you?!"

"Ok?"

Ruan Qian'an was caught off guard and her mouth was slapped until it bled. The people inside the cage dared not watch this scene, thinking it was an insult.

Ruan Qian'an's head was lowered and she was trembling. Her long hair obscured her expression until laughter came out.

The man realized something was wrong and paused for a moment, then wanted to lash out.

Ruan Qian'an slightly raised her head, a bloodthirsty smile on her face.

The person grabbing Ruan Qian'an's hair involuntarily took a step back, then roared, "What are you laughing at!"

He gripped Ruan Qian'an's hair even tighter and laughed loudly, "Are you scared?"

The man slammed Ruan Qian'an's head hard against the floor, causing her to bleed profusely.

"I'll make you laugh! I'll make you laugh!"

"Hehe." Ruan Qian'an grabbed the hand that was holding her hair and forcefully pushed it towards the back panel.

Before he could even scream, Ruan Qian'an snapped his head in the next instant, and his body collapsed limply to the ground.

The people who had come in looking for someone were about to rush over.

Ruan Qian'an opened her eyes with a cold expression, and then those people seemed to be frozen in place.

She slowly snapped her fingers, and as if possessed, the men raised their knives and slashed their own throats, blood splattering everywhere—a truly bizarre sight.

Everyone inside the cage was terrified. Xiao Xin pleaded in a trembling voice, "Could you help us open the cage? That way we can help you too."

Ruan Qian'an's eyes were vacant. She tilted her head slightly, revealing a cold, bloodied profile to them, and then walked out barefoot through the door.

The girl holding the dead man's hand stared at the man whose neck had been snapped by Ruan Qian'an, her eyes red and filled with rage.

Xiaoyun looked at the room, which had darkened again, and for a moment she couldn't believe that anyone could be so cold and heartless.

After a long pause, she finally confirmed that this person was indeed like that. She pounded her fist on the cage and cursed, "Ungrateful wretch!"

Xiaoxin couldn't help but sigh at Xiaoyun's slowness of perception; that person was so crazy, yet Xiaoyun still dared to curse her.

Just as she finished cursing, the door was pushed open from the outside, and Ruan Qian'an leaned against the door.

With her eyes closed, she glanced at Xiaoyun almost imperceptibly, a hint of amusement in her eyes. Ruan Qian'an looked terrifying no matter how you looked at her.

Ruan Qian'an put on some clothes she found somewhere: a white T-shirt and gray sweatpants. However, she was still barefoot, and the bloodstains on her face had not been cleaned off.

After throwing the keys in her hand next to Xiaoyun at the door, Ruan Qian'an dragged the two corpses out.

However, this time she didn't close the door, making it easier for her to handle the bodies.

Xiaoyun struggled to grab the key to unlock it for herself, but the key to the bracelet wasn't there.

The girl who was dragging the corpse came out of the cage, picked up a dagger, and stabbed the man whose neck had been twisted, one stab after another.

"Ah! Ah! Ah!"

She screamed in despair, each scream louder than the last, each stab more brutal than the last.

Xiao Xin looked at the distraught person with a face full of pity: "Qin Ru..."

Qin remained oblivious, slicing away at the corpse until it was unrecognizable.

Then, with her face covered in blood, she stood up unsteadily, walked to the table, and gently stroked the cheek of the man lying there.

Her Bai Ziqing, that upright and honest Bai Ziqing, who would smile at her, a kind and upright person who died protecting her.

"It's not worth it, it's not worth it! Bai Ziqing, I'm not worth you doing this for me."

The others watched this scene in silence, their eyes moist.

Qin Ru's long-suppressed emotions erupted at this moment. She hated, she hated so much! How could she not hate those people who tormented and humiliated Bai Ziqing like that! How could she not hate them!

The hatred in Qin Ru's eyes was almost tangible, yet her hand gently touched Bai Ziqing.

She said to Bai Ziqing, "I'll take you home." As she spoke, she carried him on her back. Her thin body trembled uncontrollably, and she fell to the ground after taking only a few steps.

Xiaoxin, Xiaoyun, and the others stepped forward and helped Qin Ru up, saying, "We'll help you."

"Let's take down our common enemy together."

Qin Ru nodded weakly, then shook her head, pleading, "I... let me take him with me."

After giving them the keys, Ruan Qian'an threw the corpses into the sea.

Ruan Qian'an stood obediently outside for a long time, then sighed as she felt the stickiness on her hands; there was still one body left to throw away.

She stood at the door and said, "You think you can take revenge with this kind of attitude?"

She slammed the door shut with a creak: "Do you want to attract more attention?"

Xiaoyun cursed angrily: "Damn it, do you even know how to talk?!"

Ruan Qian'an wasn't annoyed. She sat on the cage with her legs crossed, leaning against the wall, and said calmly, "It's already difficult enough for you to escape from here, and you want to bring a corpse with you?"

Qin Ru knelt on one knee, carrying Bai Ziqing on her back: "What do you want?"

Ruan Qian'an: "Throw it into the sea."

Qin Ru looked terrified: "Impossible! Unless you kill me!"

Qin Ru stared intently at Ruan Qian'an's every move, gambling that this man wouldn't indiscriminately kill innocent people.

With a chuckle, Ruan Qian'an laughed out loud: "Kill you? Isn't that easy? But are you willing to die? Your life isn't just yours alone, you know?"

Qin Ru shrank back. This woman was right. Her life belonged not only to her but also to Bai Ziqing. She couldn't die.

Ruan Qian'an rubbed her forehead, feeling a headache coming on. She hadn't fully recovered yet, otherwise, it wouldn't have been so troublesome.

Ruan Qian'an sensed Qin Ru's breathing quicken, then said in a gentler tone:

"Leave them here for now. After we kill all those people, you can do whatever you want with them."

Ruan Qian'an slightly opened her eyes and looked at Qin Ru with a smile: "Isn't that right?"

Qin Ru nodded blankly: "Yes, please, you must let me take him away."

Ruan Qian'an stood up, walked up to Qin Ru, and said, "Okay."

Qin Ru didn't know why, but she trusted this woman she had never met and who was even considered supernatural.
