Shocking! The actress was dragged to the regent's bedchamber every night.

Su Wuli was stunned. She wanted to explain but couldn't bring herself to speak, since what he said wasn't wrong.

She has always been very patient and good at enduring hardship.

But then the man suddenly reached out, and Su Wuli thought he was going to pinch her chin again, so her eyelashes trembled slightly.

However, the next moment, his knuckles tapped her forehead hard, so hard that it made her head ache.

"Hmm..." she hummed softly.

Yu Chen withdrew his hand, his tone full of undisguised contempt, "No wonder you were bullied like this."

He then added, "Holding onto your ridiculous logic, in a place where people eat each other, you're like meat on a chopping board, and everyone wants to cut you."

Su Wuli was speechless upon hearing this.

But as Yu Chen turned around, his gaze returned to the three people on the ground.

Zhou Ruoying was still clutching her hand and wailing, while Wang Xin and Li Luyun collapsed to the ground, their faces ashen.

Yu Chen walked over and stopped in front of them.

The three of them immediately shuffled back in terror.

"Just now," he asked, "who suggested locking her up here?"

The three men trembled even more violently, their eyes darting around nervously, too afraid to answer.

When Wang Xin met his gaze, she trembled with fear and shook her head frantically.

"No...it wasn't me...it was Zhou Ruoying...she said it." She pointed to the side as she spoke.

Upon seeing this, Zhou Ruoying's already pale face instantly froze.

Yu Chen didn't say anything and walked over.

He bent down, grabbed her hair, and dragged her up from the ground.

Zhou Ruoying cried out in pain.

Yu Chen acted as if he hadn't heard her, and dragged her to the metal cabinet in the corner of the classroom that was used to store sports equipment.

The cabinet door was old, with a rusty padlock hanging on it.

He loosened Zhou Ruoying's hair and, to her horror, tore the rusty lock off with his bare hands.

Then open the cabinet door.

It was dark inside, filled with thick dust, and gave off a musty smell.

Zhou Ruoying seemed to realize something and shook her head frantically.

He wanted to back away, "No... I know I was wrong... I really know I was wrong."

Yu Chen ignored her and ruthlessly shoved her into the iron cabinet before closing the door.

"Let me out! Help!"

Zhou Ruoying frantically pounded on the cabinet wall inside, her voice muffled and filled with despair.

Immediately afterwards, Yu Chen picked up the broken lock from the ground, bent it with his bare hands, and wedged it into the latch of the cabinet door.

The sounds of slapping and crying came from inside the metal cabinet, echoing in the silent classroom, sending chills down the spine even further than the earlier screams.

After doing all this, Yu Chen patted the rust off his hands and turned around.

Su Wuli's face was deathly pale, and her eyes were wide open as she stared at the iron cabinet.

The scene of Zhou Ruoying being locked up just now overlapped with the dark fear she had experienced countless times when she was locked in a locker.

This time, however, it was the perpetrator who was locked up.

"See that?" Yu Chen's voice pulled her back from her long-lost thoughts.

He stood before her, his face expressionless, only a cold calm lurking deep within his eyes.

"That's what it's called." He paused, as if searching for a word she could understand, "karma."

"The taste they wanted you to experience, now you can taste it yourself." He leaned down, placing his hands on either side of her again, trapping her within his aura.

"The kind of things your parents taught you are for people who are reasonable."

Su Wuli met the man's eyes with some confusion, only to hear him continue speaking in a tone that left no room for negotiation.

"The only way to deal with unreasonable beasts is to make them feel pain, so that they will never dare to extend their claws towards you again."

"I will do it for you today." He straightened up and glanced at the metal cabinet that was still creaking.

He glanced at the two people on the ground and said, "Next time, you do it yourself."

"Will they...die?" Su Wuli seemed to have finally found her voice again.

Her voice trembled without her even realizing it.

It wasn't sympathy, but rather a sense of fear about the excessive violence in the situation.

"Die?" he scoffed. "It's not that easy."

Su Wuli looked at him with a hint of doubt.

"You forgot?" Yu Chen said, "This is a dream, your dream."

Upon hearing this, Su Wuli realized what was happening.

Yes, this is her dream, a nightmare she has been unable to escape and that has haunted her for a long time.

Therefore, even if you do these things in your dream, it cannot change the outcome in reality.

Reality……

Su Wuli suddenly remembered that she was going to a party.

The fear of being bullied made her body, which had just warmed up a little, instantly turn cold.

She sat by the podium, her lips devoid of color.

She was huddled inside the oversized robe, yet she still couldn't stop trembling.

It's like a piece of porcelain that's been broken and then glued back together.

Upon seeing this, Yu Chen frowned and called out, "Su Wuli?"

Su Wuli did not respond. The next second, a large hand covered her forehead.

"Why is it so cold?" Yu Chen frowned even more deeply.

He immediately bent down and picked her up, robe and all.

He walked out of the classroom, leaving the wailing sounds coming from the metal cabinet behind.

The corridor remained dimly lit, with the ghastly green emergency lights extending into the darkness.

He carried Su Wuli to another classroom.

This classroom is extremely similar to the original one, exactly the same.

The only difference is that those three people are no longer there.

A dim, yellowish light from a distant streetlamp shone through the window, adding a touch of hazy warmth compared to the previous room.

Su Wuli had no time to look around, and was carried to the podium by him in a daze.

Yu Chen didn't put her down immediately, but stood there holding her for a few seconds.

Immediately afterwards, Su Wuli was carried and sat down on a chair next to the podium.

She sat sideways on the man's lap, her body still wrapped in her robe.

The chill still lingered in her body, and Su Wuli instinctively wanted to shrink deeper into her robe.

But in the next instant, Yu Chen ripped open the collar of the robe to both sides.

It was summer, yet the air was icy cold, and she couldn't help but shiver again.

But then he saw Yu Chen unbutton his clothes with one hand, the collar opening to reveal his firm chest underneath.
