Border Prisoner: The Mad Boss Seduces Her Every Night

In Xu Yuanjia's beautiful eyes, there was a hint of silence and gloom, as if some sinister emotion was rising from the depths of his heart, only to be forcibly suppressed by him.

After a long pause, he swallowed hard and finally replied, "Okay."

Shi Luyu seemed to finally feel a little relieved.

She reached out and hugged him again, burying her face in his shoulder, and whispered, "Then it's settled."

Xu Yuanjia lowered his eyelashes. His hand landed on her back, slowly tightening. "Mmm."

His voice was deep and hoarse. "It's settled."

There was not a trace of a smile in his eyes.

There was only a deep, dark expanse where no light could be seen.

……

As night falls, in the depths of the old river port on the northern part of the Taimai River, a waterfront clubhouse that had been abandoned for many years and then renovated lights up.

This place is called "Nine Palaces Water Garden".

From the outside, it appears to be a private clubhouse built over the Blackwater River, with a suspended covered bridge, the water's surface a deep black, and golden serpent and eagle motifs carved on the pillars. Rainforest mist flows along the water's surface, and there are no ordinary lights, only rows of low-hanging copper lamps falling from the eaves.

The dim lighting made the entire building appear both eerie and extravagant.

Deep inside the guild hall is a semi-open water torture chamber.

A glass waterway was embedded in the center of the ground, with several huge black shadows swimming underwater. Ancient firearms and animal bone decorations from old Southeast Asian dynasties hung on the walls. The cold glint of metal, the scent of sandalwood, and the damp sound of water intertwined, making it hard to breathe.

This is Jia Ye's territory.

Everyone in Taimai knows that whether those who enter the Nine Palaces Water Pavilion can come out alive depends on whether Master Jia is in the mood today.

When Xu Chenglin was dragged in, he could barely stand.

He was still wearing that tattered military green jacket, his face was covered in blood, his eye sockets were bruised, and he looked utterly disheveled. Yet his eyes still shone, carrying the same madness that was ingrained in the Xu family.

Zhou Ji stood on the left, looking calm, holding a list in his hand.

Chai also stood on the low platform beside the waterway, pressing Xu Chenglin to kneel on the obsidian floor, the scar on his face looking fierce under the light.

Xu Chenglin lowered his head, took a few breaths, and suddenly laughed: "Where's my brother?"

"It's been so long, why didn't you come to see me off in person?"

Chai, knife in hand, scoffed coldly, "You think you're worthy of being delivered by me?"

As soon as he finished speaking, light and slow footsteps came from outside the door.

Xu Yuanjia walked in.

He changed into an exquisitely tailored black suit, the outer jacket a muted, misty gray, over which he wore a light white blouse, the collar loose, without a tie. A black jade watch rested on his wrist; he was impeccably dressed, a refined and elegant young nobleman.

He walked to the head seat, crossed his long legs, and leaned back lazily.

The water reflected on his profile, highlighting his refined and noble features. His lips were pale red, and he was beautiful in a sharp and dangerous way.

Zhou Ji and Chai Ye both bowed their heads at the same time: "Master."

Xu Yuanjia lifted his eyelids and looked at Xu Chenglin kneeling on the ground. A hint of weariness lingered in his nonchalant gaze. "Still alive?"

Xu Chenglin looked up and spat out a mouthful of blood, cursing, "Xu Yuanjia, aren't you afraid the old man will find out what you're doing?"

Xu Yuanjia seemed amused: "Scared? Me?"

The smile was faint, not reaching the eyes, but merely flickering on the lips, chillingly cold and sending shivers down one's spine.

As soon as he finished speaking, he raised his hand, and Zhou Ji immediately handed over the list.

"Master, we've uncovered the remaining three undercover agents from the fourth branch. Xu Chenglin is still holding onto a batch of old debts from the southern front, which he refuses to hand over."

Xu Yuanjia glanced down at the two lines and said, "Such a stubborn mouth."

He looked up at Xu Chenglin, his tone languid. "You've made something of yourself."

Xu Chenglin chuckled softly, his chest trembling with laughter, which aggravated his wound and caused him to cough up a little blood.

"Brother, don't pretend you're different from the old man." He was even panting as he spoke.

"We Xu family members are all fucking crazy to the core."

Xu Yuanjia's eyebrows twitched slightly. He seemed unmoved, simply picking up his teacup and taking a slow, deliberate sip.

The aroma of tea wafted in the damp, cool air. "Of course I'm different from you."

He put down his teacup, his fingertips lightly tapping the rim. "You rely on madness to save your lives, I rely on madness to seize power."

Xu Chenglin's smile froze for a moment. He gritted his teeth, then, as if remembering something, laughed again.

"Aren't you afraid that Shi Luyu will find out what you are?"

The waterboarding chamber fell silent for a moment.

Zhou Ji's eyes turned cold and sharp in an instant.

Chai also stopped wiping his knife.

Xu Yuanjia remained unmoved, only slowly raising his eyes to look at Xu Chenglin. "You've reminded me."

He said slowly, "You're not dead yet, so it's definitely not safe enough."

Xu Chenglin's Adam's apple bobbed. With two men in black pressing down on his shoulders, he still forced a smile: "Are you scared?"

"Xu Yuanjia, are you afraid she'll find out you're impersonating Xu Jia, afraid she'll find out you're actually Master Jia, afraid she'll find out you've been lying to her from beginning to end?"

He became more and more enthusiastic as he spoke, and a hint of malicious excitement even shone in his eyes.

"She now calls you 'brother,' hugs you, trusts you, cares about you, and cherishes you!"

"When she finds out the truth, do you think she'll be so disgusted she'll throw up?"

Zhou Ji carefully observed Yan Ye's expression, then turned to give Chai Ye a look.

Chai immediately stood up and kicked Xu Chenglin in the shoulder.

Xu Chenglin was kicked and fell to the side, his arm hitting the obsidian floor with a dull thud.

Xu Chenglin was almost brought to the brink of death.

He lay on the ground, breathing heavily, his forehead soaked with cold sweat, his fingertips twitching, yet he still stared intently at Xu Yuanjia.

"Xu Yuanjia..." His voice was hoarse beyond recognition.

Xu Chenglin looked up, blood smeared at the corner of his mouth. "You'll be abandoned by her sooner or later!"

The sound echoed through the empty water torture chamber, carrying with it the last vestiges of mad, ecstatic pleasure:

"I'm really looking forward to it."

"I'll see your tragic end in the end!"
