“Trade?” Lan Si sneered, “Do you think there’s anything I need right now? Do you have anything I don’t already have?”
“What gives you the right to negotiate with me?”
Lan Si roared in fury, “From the moment you caused Ah Ci’s death, there was only one fate left for you!”
“Please… just take it as me begging you…”
Shang suddenly dropped to his knees in front of Lan Si, repeatedly kowtowing. “I beg you… please give the young miss the antidote… I beg you…”
However, Lan Si, standing beside him, remained completely unmoved.
He watched Shang’s desperate pleas with cold, detached eyes.
This was the monster that had killed Ah Ci.
And now, he was begging him?
Hah…
“Please… give the young miss the antidote…” Shang continued slamming his head against the floor, “As long as you give her the antidote, I’ll do anything you ask.”
Lan Si still showed no expression as he coldly observed everything before him.
“I don’t need you to do anything,” he said.
“I just want you to suffer…”
“I want Pei Mingzhu to suffer a fate worse than death…”
Ah Ci must have been in unbearable pain when she died, right?
Thinking of this, Lan Si’s deep eyes filled with both tears and hatred.
He turned around and picked up a syringe filled with an unknown liquid.
It had been confiscated when they destroyed the underground lab of Angel of Destruction Kindergarten.
Yin Haoting had told him to destroy it.
He had agreed… but secretly kept it all.
When Shang saw the vial in Lan Si’s hand, a terrible sense of foreboding surged within him. “You… what are you going to do?”
“What am I going to do?” Lan Si’s smile was dark and cruel. “What was it that you injected into Ah Ci back then?”
Lan Si stared at the liquid in the vial, his eyes filled with bone-deep hatred and madness. “Do you still remember what you injected into her?”
“It’s been so many years, you’ve probably forgotten…”
“Sigh, I don’t know either…” Lan Si’s eyes gleamed with insanity as he looked at Shang. “But don’t worry, I’ll find out, little by little…”
“You people love experimenting on others, don’t you?”
Lan Si smirked devilishly, then strode over to Pei Mingzhu without hesitation.
He glanced down at the vial in his hand, his expression both calm and eerily unhinged.
Suddenly, he raised the syringe and plunged it directly into Pei Mingzhu’s slender arm. “Then you should have a taste of it too.”
“Aaaahhhhh! Aaaaaahhhhhh!”
As the liquid slowly entered her veins, Pei Mingzhu’s screams became more piercing and agonizing.
“No!”
Shang violently shook the iron bars of his cage like a crazed beast. “Lan Si… stop! STOP!! STOP!!!”
“Lan Si, I’ll kill you… I’LL KILL YOU!”
But compared to Shang’s madness, Lan Si merely chuckled.
He said, “I don’t know exactly what kind of drugs you people were researching, but since you were so obsessed with them… they must be good, right?”
“If they’re good, then we can’t let others have all the fun… You all should experience them personally.”
“Starting today…” Lan Si’s gaze locked onto Shang like a predator. “I’ll inject Pei Mingzhu with one dose every day. Let’s see just how ‘amazing’ this thing you all have been obsessed with really is.”
“You wouldn’t dare!”
“And why wouldn’t I?”
With that, Lan Si grabbed another vial of red liquid and injected Pei Mingzhu again.
Her entire body began to convulse violently. She writhed and screamed on the ground in agony.
“No…”
Shang pounded his fists against the iron bars, utterly devastated. “Lan Si, you can’t do this…”
“Lan Si, if you have the guts, come after me! I was the one who killed Bai Ci! If you want revenge, come for me!”
“Alright.”
The moment he finished speaking, Lan Si picked up a syringe and stabbed it straight into Shang’s neck.
Shang grunted in pain.
But the drug didn’t seem to have much effect on him.
Seeing this, Lan Si immediately grabbed another vial and injected it into Pei Mingzhu instead.
He smirked at Shang. “Tell me, after she’s injected with all sorts of different drugs, will Pei Mingzhu turn into a monster like you?”
“No… you can’t…”
“Why not?” Lan Si’s laughter was chilling. “Don’t you love her? If I turn her into a monster just like you, then she won’t find you ugly and disgusting anymore. Isn’t that wonderful?”
“No… please no…” Pei Mingzhu’s heart shattered at those words.
She didn’t want to become a deformed, hideous monster like Shang.
She would rather die.
Lan Si noticed her thoughts and grabbed her chin. “You want to die?”
“That’s not allowed.” He shook his head. “Otherwise, I’ll turn your son, Leng Yifeng, into a monster just like Shang.”
“You three haven’t had a proper reunion yet, have you?”
“Do you think Leng Yifeng will acknowledge you as his monstrous father?”
Hearing this, Shang was driven into a blind fury.
“AAAAAHHHH! AAAAAHHHHH!”
He struggled with all his might, causing the heavy chains on his body to clatter noisily.
The sheer force embedded the chains deep into his flesh, and fresh blood trickled down his wounds. But Shang ignored the pain and continued to struggle madly.
Then—CRACK!
The sound of something breaking echoed through the room.
With sheer brute strength, Shang had torn one of the iron chains apart with his bare hands.
The guards watching were stunned.
“Mr. President, he’s too dangerous! You should leave immediately!”
“Dangerous?”
Lan Si raised his gun and shot Pei Mingzhu in the leg without hesitation. “Struggle any more, and I’ll turn her into a sieve.”
As Pei Mingzhu collapsed, Shang immediately stopped moving.
Lan Si pressed the barrel of the gun against Shang’s disfigured face and tapped it mockingly. “Be obedient, and we can keep playing. Otherwise…”
“You haven’t even had a proper conversation with your son yet. How about I let him join us?”
“Lan Si, you’re the real devil… YOU’RE THE DEVIL!”
“We’re both the same.”
Just then, footsteps echoed from outside.
As Yin Hanyu and the others entered, Lan Si finally withdrew his cold, murderous aura.
Leng Yifeng stepped into the prison, only to be horrified by what he saw—Pei Mingzhu lay on the ground, covered in blood, her hair disheveled, writhing and screaming in agony.
“M… Mom… Mom…” Leng Yifeng called out in terror, his voice trembling.
But before he could get any closer, Yin Yixuan suddenly rushed forward and slapped him hard across the face. “Stay still!”
The unexpected slap sent Leng Yifeng staggering backward, nearly falling.
At the same time, Lan Si cast a chilling glance at Leng Yifeng. Just that one look made him instinctively step back in fear.
But in reality, Lan Si wasn’t focused on him.
His gaze passed over Leng Yifeng and landed directly on Yin Hanyu.
Yin Hanyu, however, didn’t even spare Lan Si a glance. He walked straight toward Pei Mingzhu.
Lying on the ground, Pei Mingzhu was barely alive. Even breathing was excruciating.
She struggled to lift her head and looked at Yin Hanyu approaching.
With a weak and broken voice, she whispered, “Kill me…”
Hearing this, Yin Hanyu stopped.
Then, his lips curled into a cruel smile.
He crouched down and pressed his foot against her tear-streaked face.
“Kill you?”
“That would be too easy.”
