Miss Si's feigned innocence went too far, and the aloof Mr. Bo was easily swayed.

Si Yuan felt that Shen Xingzhu was grasping at straws in her desperation.

She sighed softly. "Do you know who Jiang Lai is?"

"Who?"

"Bo Yusen's nephew, and he already knows about my scheme against Jiang Lai."

The glimmer of hope in Shen Xingzhu's eyes gradually faded away.

Bo Yusen is indeed a good person, but he is not a saint.

How could he possibly save a woman who schemed against his own niece?

In fact, Si Yuan never had any hope for Bo Yusen.

Shen Xingzhu looked worried. "Isn't there any other way?"

"Yes, I have."

Compared to Shen Xingzhu's melancholy, Si Yuan was quite calm, "I'm relying on you."

Shen Xingzhu: "..."

Shen Xingzhu knew very well that A Yuan would not have come to her unless she was desperate.

She needs to be A Yuan's strongest support, and that can't just be empty words.

She held Si Yuan's hand tightly. "Ah Yuan, I will never let anything happen to you."

Si Yuan smiled and nodded, "I believe in you, and I believe we will succeed."

Since then, Shen Xingzhu would call Si Yuan every half hour, and if she couldn't make a phone call, she would send her a WeChat message every ten minutes.

Si Yuan will reply to each one.

Si Yuan went to school and home as usual. Sensing that Li Jiale would definitely take action, she did not go to see Bo Yusen again.

Si Yingying has been acting mysteriously these past few days.

The driver took them to school, and Si Yingying would leave the school after the driver left.

Si Yuan knew without even thinking what she was going to do.

Nowadays.

After finishing her two afternoon classes, Si Yuan left the school.

She walked along the quiet path, where a thick layer of fallen leaves covered the ground, making a rustling sound as she stepped on them.

The soft crackling of leaves mingled with the sound of the wind, making her figure appear even more aloof and solitary.

She seemed completely absorbed in her own world, oblivious to everything happening around her.

Suddenly, a handkerchief was placed over my mouth, accompanied by a strange fragrance.

Here it comes!

Si Yuan struggled symbolically for a couple of moments before fainting.

When Si Yuan opened her eyes again, she found herself in an unfamiliar environment.

The room was brightly lit, but not by lamplight; it was by red candlelight.

Red and pink roses intertwined, covering the tabletop and windowsill, with tiny water droplets clinging to the petals, shimmering softly in the candlelight.

The old-fashioned record player turned slowly, and gentle French love songs flowed from the needle, their melodies lingering and melodious.

In stark contrast to this romantic setting are the walls covered with torturous props.

It wasn't the first time she'd seen it, but it still shocked Si Yuan.

Si Yuan's hands and feet were handcuffed, and the contents of her bag were emptied onto the table.

The items included a cell phone, pepper spray, and a fruit knife.

Li Jiale was fiddling with the camera when he heard the noise and turned to look at Si Yuan.

"You woke up much faster than I expected."

Si Yuan tugged at the handcuffs, which touched the headboard with a sickening clang, but it was no use.

"Li Jiale, this is illegal imprisonment."

"Oh--"

Li Jiale sneered, set up the camera, walked up to Si Yuan, and reached out to touch Si Yuan's face.

When Si Yuan avoided him, a sinister glint flashed in his eyes, but he didn't get angry. Instead, he smiled and said, "With your intelligence, didn't you already know I wouldn't let you go?"

He picked up the pepper spray and fiddled with it for a moment, then picked up the fruit knife. "Do you think these two things can handle me?"

He smiled, mocking Si Yuan's naivety and overestimation of her abilities.

Unlike the other women who screamed, cried, and begged him to let them go, Si Yuan remained frighteningly calm under these circumstances.

Li Jiale looked at Si Yuan, his blood boiling.

Sure enough, only Si Yuan could arouse his most primal desire for conquest.

"Honey, do you like it here? This is a room I made especially for you, where no one can bother us."

Si Yuan looked at Li Jiale quietly, "I thought you had learned your lesson last time and had turned over a new leaf, but I didn't expect you to still be so incorrigible."

Li Jiale put down the knife, picked up the rabbit ears next to him, and put them on Si Yuan's head. "I have to admit, your methods are indeed brilliant. You've given me a big scare, so... you have to pay the price for this."

Li Jiale picked up a collar and put it around Si Yuan's neck. "See these tools? Tonight, I'm going to use them all on you."

Si Yuan frowned and struggled, "My mother won't let you get away with this."

"Si Qingwan? Ha—see that camera? I'm going to film everything I do to you and post it online."

"Si Qingwan values ​​the Si family's reputation most. You're not even her biological child. Do you think she'll protect you or abandon you?"

Li Jiale was indeed as vicious as Si Yuan had imagined.

This time, he not only wanted to ruin her body, but also her reputation and everything else.

This man, indeed, cannot be kept alive.

Li Jiale, holding the rattan cane in his hand, walked step by step toward Si Yuan.

Thinking about how he had been tricked by Si Yuan and suffered so much, he was filled with rage, and the violent impulses within him were fully unleashed.

"Baby, I used to be so reluctant to let you suffer, and I wanted to treat you in the gentlest way possible. Now... you've brought this on yourself..."

Li Jiale raised his whip and lashed it down hard at Si Yuan.

The whip lashed her body, and a sharp pain suddenly struck. Si Yuan gritted her teeth and stared coldly at Li Jiale, her eyes surging with intense killing intent.

"How are you feeling? Does it hurt a lot?"

Her forehead was covered in cold sweat, Si Yuan's jawline was taut, and her lower lip had been bitten by her teeth, leaving shallow marks, but she didn't let the pain show from the corner of her mouth.

Instead, a faint, mocking smile appeared on his face, as if he were laughing at the other party's despicable behavior.

Her reaction made Li Jiale's eyes widen in fury.

She grabbed Si Yuan by the neck. "Don't look at me like I'm an ant."

Li Jiale likes Si Yuan just as much as Xiang Mingche.

But Si Yuan only had eyes for Xiang Mingche and always ignored him.

Later, when I finally managed to linger on him for a while longer, it was with those contemptuous, disdainful, and disgusted looks.

He lowered his head angrily and kissed Si Yuan, but Si Yuan turned her head away, and Li Jiale's lips landed on Si Yuan's face.

Just from a kiss on the cheek, a look of jealousy, pleasure, and madness appeared on his face.

"Ah... Ah Yuan, you smell so good..."

Si Yuan clenched her fists, her knuckles turning white. "Li Jiale, how about we make a bet?"

"Oh? Even in this situation, you still have the mood to make a bet?"

He looked at Si Yuan with a leisurely air. "I don't mind playing with you all night. So, what kind of bet?"

It's been so long, Xingzhu hasn't received a reply from her, she should have already called the police.

Si Yuan knew that what she needed to do now was to stall for time and wait for the police to arrive.

"I bet I'll be the winner today."
