“Pei Mingzhu, the ones you truly seek revenge against are my father and uncle. Why did you target an elderly man?” Yin Yixuan demanded. “Besides, you already have me and my older brother in your hands. Isn’t that enough? Let my grandfather go!”
“Of course, it’s not enough…”
Pei Mingzhu slapped Yin Yixuan forcefully. “What do you understand? Do you think I want you dead?”
“No, no, no…” Pei Mingzhu shook her head frantically. “What’s so good about death? Living—now that’s the real suffering.”
“That old man is the biological father of Yin Haoting and Lan Si. And you and Yin Hanyu are their biological sons. Turning you into living test subjects, neither human nor ghost, is the best way to make Yin Haoting and Lan Si suffer a fate worse than death.”
“So don’t worry, I wouldn’t dream of killing you. After all, keeping you alive benefits me far more.”
Pei Mingzhu’s delicate face was now twisted and sinister, her eyes filled with madness and greed. “If you all died so easily, how could I manipulate Yin Haoting, who possesses limitless wealth, and Lan Si, who wields immense power?”
As she spoke, Pei Mingzhu grew more excited, her voice rising uncontrollably. “After all, they are my perfect ‘business partners’!”
“Hahahaha… Hahahahaha!” Pei Mingzhu laughed maniacally. “One is drowning in wealth, with more money than he could ever spend, while the other holds a position of supreme authority, capable of controlling everything.”
“With them under my control, I will never have to answer to anyone ever again! Hahahaha!”
“Madwoman… she’s insane…” Yin Yixuan had never encountered a woman so ruthless, venomous, and deranged.
She actually dared to call his father and uncle her “business partners”?
They were the ones who wanted to kill her the most!
And yet, Yin Yixuan had no choice but to admit—Pei Mingzhu had a terrifyingly well-calculated plan.
Because his grandfather, Yin Hanyu, and himself were, indeed, perfect leverage against Yin Haoting and Lan Si.
“So, what do you think?” Pei Mingzhu playfully patted Yin Yixuan’s face. “My plan is brilliant, isn’t it? Wouldn’t you like to see your father and uncle obey my every command like trained dogs?”
“In your dreams!”
“Dreams? You’ll find out soon enough if it’s a dream or reality…”
Pei Mingzhu clapped her hands.
Moments later, a child and an adult were carried into the room.
Without hesitation, Pei Mingzhu injected a blue serum into the child.
Instantly, the child let out a bloodcurdling scream, writhing in agony on the floor.
“Ahhh! Ahhh! It hurts! Daddy, it hurts! It hurts so much! Daddy!”
“Daddy, save me! Save me!”
The father, seeing his child in such unbearable pain, broke down completely. He cried hysterically, pleading with Pei Mingzhu to spare his child.
He kowtowed repeatedly, his forehead smashing against the floor until it bled.
“Please… I beg you… Please let my child go! He’s just a child!”
“A child? That makes it even better.” Pei Mingzhu gently stroked her own face. “Do you know why I look so young? It’s all thanks to these children.”
The father’s face turned deathly pale. He frantically resumed his kowtowing. “No… Please, let my child go… I’ll do anything you want!”
“Anything?”
“Anything! Just please… Please let him go!”
Pei Mingzhu smirked. “Then bark like a dog for me.”
“Woof! Woof! Woof! Woof!”
The man, who once seemed to be someone of importance, now debased himself completely, barking like a dog just to please Pei Mingzhu.
“Hahahaha! Hahahahaha!” Pei Mingzhu laughed hysterically.
Once she had laughed to her heart’s content, she turned to Yin Hanyu, the old master, and Yin Yixuan. “Tell me, wouldn’t it be amusing to see Yin Haoting and Lan Si do the same for me?”
“You’re insane! Pei Mingzhu, you’re completely insane!”
“Hahahaha! Hahahaha!” Pei Mingzhu’s laughter grew even more deranged.
She injected another dose of the serum into the suffering child.
The child suddenly stopped convulsing and fell silent.
The father let out a temporary sigh of relief.
Pei Mingzhu then addressed him. “Now, if you bring me more children, I’ll let your son go.”
“But…”
“But what?” Pei Mingzhu raised the syringe again, ready to inject another dose.
The trembling child curled into a ball, fearfully looking at his father for help.
“Daddy… I’m scared…”
“Daddy… It hurts… Daddy…”
“Okay! Okay! Okay! I’ll do it! I’ll do whatever you ask!” The father collapsed onto his knees in despair. “Just give my child the antidote! I’ll do anything you want!”
Pei Mingzhu then turned to Yin Yixuan and Yin Hanyu. “Do you know who he is? He’s the principal of another kindergarten. With his help, I’ll soon have a second ‘Angel Kindergarten’!”
Her twisted laughter filled the room, making everyone’s skin crawl.
As they watched the principal’s resolve crumble, Yin Yixuan instinctively protested.
“You can’t do this!”
“Those other children are innocent too!”
“But I just want to save my child…”
“You…”
The principal, his face filled with grief, left without another word.
Pei Mingzhu laughed uncontrollably, as though she could already see her dream coming true.
“Do you think Yin Haoting and Lan Si will also bow to me, just like this father did, once they see you all suffering in agony?”
“Pei Mingzhu, you are a devil!”
But Yin Yixuan’s curse only made Pei Mingzhu laugh even more wildly.
“Thanks to all of you…” Pei Mingzhu sneered. “My Pei family was once hindered by those damn laws and regulations, unable to conduct our experiments. We lacked the funding to develop our special drugs. But now, with the help of Lan Si and Yin Haoting, I can accomplish everything I ever wanted.”
“Hahahaha! Hahahaha! There’s nothing I, Pei Mingzhu, cannot achieve!”
Pei Mingzhu had fully descended into madness.
Her maniacal laughter echoed through the laboratory, sending chills down everyone’s spine.
At that moment, she no longer seemed human—she was the embodiment of pure evil, a devil who had claimed the world yet remained insatiably cruel.
“Master, they’re here.” Ming Yu suddenly appeared at the door.
“Already? But I haven’t finished playing yet…” Pei Mingzhu pouted in dissatisfaction. “Didn’t I say to bring them in at night?”
